My friends-only posts are marginally less inane than my public ones.

Comment to be added, I'm not picky.

I really want to update but i've not got proper internet access at the moment so am only on my phone, and its too hard. Woe. I'm sure the suspense is killing you all.

From the bbc website:



Liverpool, once they found their feet, were the brighter and more creative side - with the magnificent Torres the spearhead, ably assisted by Gerrard.

The Premier League leaders, in contrast, were lifeless in all areas as they suffered their heaviest home defeat since losing 4-1 against QPR on New Year' Day 1992.


Perfect.

From the BBC website:

1920: TOTTENHAM v LIVERPOOL LINE-UPS
Tottenham: Gomes, Hutton, Dawson, Corluka, Bale, Lennon, Zokora, Huddlestone, O'Hara, Pavlyuchenko, Campbell. Subs: Cesar, Bentley, Bent, Modric, Gunter, Boateng, Rocha.

I'm not feeling massively good about this. Please let me have to eat my words later.

Hiya Dirk Kuyt!



I am rapidly being forced to reconsider my opinion of you.


All I've done today is add "Fernando Torres' post-match interviews" to my interests on here and buy grey clothes from H&M. Need to get the student motivation back.

I noticed this morning, whilst watching the news at somewhere in the region of 5.30am, that the BBC's business correspondent is called Julia Caesar.

Parents are so mean.

Not really a lot to say, but just wanted to write something really quick about The Dark Knight. (I keep calling it Batman, this is irritating, but what can you do?)

I really liked it. I don't often bother seeing films at the cinema, but I'm glad I did with this. Like everyone else has said really, I was a bit dubious about Christian Bale's Batman voice at times, but other than that it was superb! Gary Oldman was AMAZING. And the Joker was ace, (haha card puns) such a well fleshed out character. I loved the details like his twitches and tics. He's not straightforward FRIGHTENING in the way that some villains are, but genuinely sinister and unpredictable, and the way the music is done adds to how creepy it is. And yet there are scenes with him in which are genuinely funny!

Also in the last third of the film I found some of the moral situations that people find themselves in (not wanting to make spoilers here) genuinely thought provoking and unsettling.

All in all - good stuff.

WHEY!

In your FACE Michael Ballack, I hate you. Another loser's medal to put with the ones you have from Chelsea. I am a little too excited about Spain winning Euro 2008, but I've wanted them to win since the beginning! Kind of wishing I'd put a fiver on them now or something.

Did anyone else notice Iker Casillas get totally dissed and dismissed by Angela Merkel? HILARIOUS.

Stolen from Juliet;

Film quote meme: put 10 of your favourite films in to IMDB and pick a quote, then make people guess the film. NO CHEATING.

1. Am I that transparent? I want you, I need you, oh baby, oh baby.

2. I tried taking pictures, but they were so mediocre. I guess every girl goes through a photography phase. You know, horses... taking pictures of your feet.

3. I'm very sorry for your loss. Your mother was a terribly attractive woman.

4. When it comes to reassuring a traumatized 19-year-old, I'm about as expert as a palsy victim doing brain surgery with a pipe wrench.

5. Too many guys think I'm a concept, or I complete them, or I'm gonna make them alive. But I'm just a fucked-up girl who's lookin' for my own peace of mind; don't assign me yours.

6. Mother, I do not need a blind date. Particularly not with some verbally incontinent spinster who drinks like a fish, smokes like a chimney, and dresses like her mother.

7. Feminine weaknesses and fainting spells are the direct result of our confining young girls to the house, bent over their needlework, and restrictive corsets.

8. I was in the path of the tornado... I just didn't expect the storm would last as long as it has.

9. Oh, I love seeing teachers outside of school. It's like seeing a dog walk on its hind legs.

10. OK ? now, girls. I want you to concentrate. Failure is not an option. And Bethany? If you feel the need to vomit up there, just swallow it.



This took me ages, because I never watch films really. Hm.
