Re: Anyone around?
Tomorrow I think I'm gonna make some kelewele and red red. I bought plantains for that purpose today. So tasty~.
I'm here but maybe not for long. I really need to go to bed. Two nights in a row of almost no sleep and I'm feeling pretty awful.
Good luck with those finals!
[QUOTE]What is kelewele?
Posted by bethsmiles[/QUOTE]
My favorite Ghanaian food -- it's fried plantain with cayenne and ginger. Red red is a stew made of tomato, onion and black eyed peas, and I like it served over the kelewele. Is so goooood :d!!

Oh that sounds good!
My roommate and I watched Love Actually tonight, it's my favorite Christmas movie. Then we started watching Season 1 of Felicity. I'm in love with that show! I've been so unproductive today, I literally have not done a SINGLE thing on my to-do list!
I did talk to my best friend on the phone for the first time in a month, which made me very happy
[QUOTE]Elle, you have to take the donate link out of your sig, or I have to ban. You've already been warned about the soliciting.

It's soliciting just to have a link? It's been there for weeks.

I've never seen Love Actually. What is it about? I think I've heard of it but I just can't think of what it is for some reason.
Speaking of favorite Christmas movies though I'm super excited to watch Its a Wonderful Life with my mom when I go home for Christmas :)

Omg you must go and rent it NOWW! haha or very soon.
It's basically a bunch of people's love stories starting 5 weeks before Christmas in England. All of their stories are sort of intertwined. It's a big star movie - Emma Thompson, Kiera Knightly, Hugh Grant, Alan Rickman. It's such a great chick flick - I watch it with one of my girl friends at least once before Christmas every year.
I love It's a Wonderful Life too! So sweet. My mom and I usually watch the old (black and white) version of A Christmas Carol every year.

Maybe my best friend and I will make a movie night out of it! I rarely see chick flicks any more since she lives in Idaho and I live in Colorado. BF won't watch them with me (I wouldn't make him watch them anyway though)

[QUOTE]I am here!! I am studying for German but I will be here. Where are the KUI??

I am drinking but not enough to be KUI. I should be studying for my mummies test but I really just can't study anymore today.
[QUOTE]You know what is pissing me off right now? TK. Once again it messing up a post. This is going to make this difficult.
Posted by ravenray[/QUOTE]
Yes! It is so annoying! I have to look through all the posts just to find the new ones.
[QUOTE]Haha I don't make BF watch chick flicks either. We both do like Disney/Pixar movies. Up is our favorite but he liked Tangled too, which surprised me a little. I loved that lantern scene.
Posted by kellyt89[/QUOTE]
BF likes watching Disney movies with me too! We prefer the classic Disney movies though. Beauty and the Beast is kind of "our movie".

Your dinner sounds delicious! Oh, and I had FI watch The Notebook once. He said he was good on sad movies for the year afterwards, lol. But, that night he told me he couldn't wait to marry me, he said he couldn't wait to put a ring on my finger, and he kept hugging me, lol. Then the next day he kept texting me about it, lol. I guess it really hit him. It's such a good movie.

I probably shouldn't drink while I study but I needed a drink after the stressful week I had!
My finals are over on Thursday! I'm so excited, this was not a good semester for me.
Beauty and the Beast is my all time favorite Disney movie! BF and I don't have a movie but "our TV show" is Chuck. We're only allowed to watch new episodes when we're together, lol.

Tangled was SO awesome! It's my favorite of their more recent movies. BF says that the girl reminds him of me...only when I'm really hyper though :)

This week was just stressful because I had papers and projects due but BF and I hit a pretty big rough patch in our relationship this semester, mostly because I was dealing with a lot of insecurities.
It's kind of embarrassing to talk about because I don't want to be "that" girl but BF has this one girl friend that just gets under my skin and does a lot of very little, subtle things that make me feel that she has a thing for BF. And it doesn't help that his family pretty much adores her. I might have mentioned it once on the boards but I don't talk about it because I know what people are going to say so I don't see the point.
I've also been dealing with a lot of self-hate, I guess. I don't like the way I look and I KNOW how to change it I just always get a little bit off track and then I screw it all up. I'm hoping to make some big changes after the stress of the semester is done though and I feel like I can breath again!
[QUOTE]What is that new TV show that is about fairy tale characters who excape into real life called? I want to watch it instead of studying...
Posted by ravenray[/QUOTE]
Oh! I know what you are talking about! I can't remember the name of it either though, so I'm not much help lol. I want to check it out too though, it looks interesting.
