Dicembre Venti-Sei, 8:40 PM

Christmas is over. Real over. Mom said awhile ago that she’ll remove the Christmas tree first thing in the morning, tomorrow.

Yesterday, I woke up so late. I took a massive breakfast, took a bath and got ready. You know, it’s a tradition during Christmas to come over to my Aunt’s house. Man, all I had to do in that house is to take care of the baby. Whenever the baby sleeps, I sneak out to watch television.

Jeanette and Sheryl gave me and Jaimie presents. They gave me a pink star, charm bracelet slash watch, while Jaimie received a black and shiny butterfly charm bracelet and watch. I love it; it’s beautiful. It’s perfect for my things. It’ll match my jacket, my bag, et cetera. You know, even though yellow-green is my favorite color, I like my things to be color-coordinated.

It was nearly evening when everyone showed up. I was reconciled with my other cousins whom I haven’t seen for years. Like Mariane, I haven’t seen her for, like, ten years ago. Also Darling and Ellen Rose. They were so surprised to see me so big. They asked my Mom, “Can you believe that she came from your own womb?” Well, before, when I hear things like this, I go nuts and start stomping around, throwing wobblies at everyone. But last night, when I heard that, I was like, “Ho-hum, whatever.”

Here in our country, it’s a tradition to give money to young people every Christmas, so there were people who gave me money, but not that much. All in all, I got four hundred and ten bucks. I’m sure, to kids, it sounds big, but not at all. I have bills to pay.

Darling was also grown big, but not the way I am. You know, I’m five feet and eight inches tall while Darling is five-three.

It was nearly half past ten when everyone said goodbye and left. We went home and watched “I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry”, while eating Black Forest and potato chips.

I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU CHUCK AND LARRY

I was never a supporter of gay right movements. In fact, I’m opposing it, but secretly, because I have gay friends.

Chuck (Adam Sandler) and Larry (Kevin James) were best buds and work as fire fighters. Larry had been a year widower and hadn’t yet move on over his spouse’s death. An accident occured while they’re on duty. It’s a nearly-death situation and both survived. Larry sort of saved Chuck’s life, so Chuck vowed that he’d do everything to pay him back. Larry was so paranoid, to the fact that there’s no one to take care of his two kids if ever accident happen again, and this time, death takes him.

In short, they married each other. Actually, I didn’t get it why, but as far as I could remember, they just pretended to be gays to receive domestic partnership benefits. Chuck agreed because he owes Larry. When the world learned it, the supposed-to-be queer couples were shunned away by everyone. Then everybody started confessing up that they’re gay, including the big, macho, black guy. How weird. They were inspired by the couple, they said.

It’s funny, if you ask me, but when you think about it deeply, you won’t be happy about the movie. Gays were being discriminated and exploited. I’m no supporter of gay rights movements, but I don’t want to hurt their feelings. Hello, people, it’s another human with feelings being laughed on, and I hate that. It’s their prerogative, so why shun queet people away?

Anyway, I’ve spotted Rob Schneider in the movie. He was the minister who officiated their wedding. I’ve noticed that Rob is always in Adam’s movies, and vice versa. Except in “The Bench Warmers”. And Jack Giarraputo is seemed to very fond of producing such movies. Three out of ten stars only for the movie…. tst tst tst.

I was suppose to wash my clothes today, but it was raining so I just went back to sleep when I woke up early in the morning. When I woke up again, I opened the fridge and looked for something to eat. There were plenty, but I guess, my pituitary glands are producing more oxytocin, which happens every month, and changed my mind about eating. Same thing happened during lunch. They enjoyed a luscious lunch while I starved myself in front of the computer.

My Aunt Rebecca came over and we watched Eragon together. Here’s the summary and my review on it.

ERAGON

Starring Edward Speelers as Eragon, Jeremy Irons, Garret Hedlund (Four Brothers), Joss Stone. Galbatorix, a former Dragon Rider turned his back against his fellow Dragon Riders and ruled on his own will. In addition to that, he killed all the Dragons so no one could go against him, because he was the only one who owns a dragon. Then, there’s a prophecy that someone will rise, a Rider of the Last of the Dragons.

So some people worked tirelessly to make the prophecy come true. Princess Arya stole the unhatched dragon egg from Galbatorix and by fate, passed it to Eragon, while he was hunting. Eragon thought it was a valuable stone so he tried selling it. After his brother, Roran, left to enter the King’s service, he checked it and the dragon hatched. It was so cute, it looks like Rufus in Kim Possible, with pair of wings and more expressive eyes. Then, a former dragon rider, played by Jeremy Irons, taught him about dragons, magic Elf words and how to fight. He was slain when Eragon tried to save Princess Arya from the evil sorcerer. Well, Eragon was almost slain, but thanks to Garett Hedlund, who saved him by using his bow and arrow, he didn’t. Together, the three of them made it together to the city inside the mountain, with Arya heavily wounded.

Of course, every adventure movie has a final war before it ends. Same happened in Eragon. Eragon cleaned himself up, and wore his armor. Wow, he looks better that ever. And likewise, good always win against evil, and Eragon was hailed as a hero.

I love the movie. Really. It’s not complicated at all, and very easy to understand. Plus the actor who portrayed Eragon was so handsome, so was Roran. They were like Harry and William, but more blonde and gorgeous. I like Arya also, because unlike other leading ladies, she wasn’t helpless as other princesses could be. She looked so good in her battle armor, which emphasized her chiseled boobies. She wasn’t thin like Eowyn in Lord of the Rings; in fact she has muscles.

I’ve seen its book in NBS, and I’d always wanted to buy that. The problem is, it will cost me three Princess Diaries books, and nowadays, it’s not practical. But I swear, I won’t let it go when I see it again. I’m gonna buy it, I promise.

After watching Eragon, I played the Chronicles of Riddick again.
