Okay, okay I know the only person here who will probably even care about this is my fellow Narnian chum buddy Arwen. But because I'm so excited I just had to post about it....that and I don't want to study ANYWAY I was really peeved when I found out they were doing a Narnia movie coz I know they'll never get it like the book so everytime the preview came on I'd cover my ears and sing but I watched the preview today and it looks soooooooooooooooooo good *cries* Now I have to see it, even Aslan looks okay *cries* omg getting all worked up *deep breath* anyways just wanted to share coz I'm an idiot who thinks people wanna read about what I think about a movie. Also I have decided that Jelly Bellys are the best candy ever invented.

I'm always skeptical when they decide to turn a good book (or series) into a movie, 'cause I figure they're just not going to be able to do it justice. Once in a while they do get it right, though, so hopefully the director is actually a Narnia fan. That'll up the chances of the movie turning out right.
I rather like Sweet Tarts. Or an odd chewing gum we have, can't remember the name, but it tastes like soap.

Oh, I'm a weird one. I like soap. As a kid I used to eat bars of soap. When it comes to food I'll try anything once. So far I've only found three foods I absolutely hate: cauliflower, hot dogs and bologna.
If you want to try a really weird taste sensation try durian. It's a Chinese fruit that looks like a basketball with spikes and tastes like peaches and blue cheese, with an overtone of cat's dirty litter box.
Sweet Tarts are little chalky pastilles that taste like sour apples, sour lemon, sour cherry...

KADES YOU HAVE TO READ THEM! Serious they're classics, you have to. I can't wait to see Ronald in his dress robes *squeals* so cute. And Hermione all grown up *cries* And Harry as far as I can see needs a serious hair cut, he looks like a dog, I mean that in a very kind and caring way AND THE MERMAIDS omg thats' gonna be good, they'll stuff the dragons they always do. I just wish Cho wasn't in it, I dislike her immensely.

Would the series not be available at your local library?
You know, I've heard of the series but I've never actually read it. I think I'll have to take my own advice and start looking for a copy. Especially if a movie's coming out. I much prefer to visualize things from the author's descriptions rather than being stuck with a director's choice.
I finally remembered the name of the chewing gum: "Thrills." I haven't seen any packages around for quite a long while, though.
What's the strangest thing you've eaten? Mine would probably have to be chocolate-covered grasshoppers. (The bits tend to stick in your teeth, though.)

Kaden honestly, Robs is right go to the library. Besides libraries are the funnest places in the world everyone knows that you must have one SOMEWHERE.
CHOCOLATE COVERED GRASSHOPPERS! GROSS, were they alive? Ick, the worst I've ever eaten is a strawberry that had half a worm in it. The other half was somewhere in my mouth much to my horror, I was only twelve at the time *shakes head sadly* Ever since then I've been paranoid about cutting fruit into teensy bits so I know there aren't any bugs in them. Mum goes nuts Mum: "RACHAEL THERE AREN'T ANY WORMS IN THEM!" Me: *cuts fruit and finds bug* "SEE I TOLD YOU!"

The only library near me is a school library. Not gonna find Narnia there.
And worms and grasshoppers, that's child's play. I've eaten a cat. I ate it while it was still alive too.

Ew ew ew. I think I am one of the pickiest people when it comes to food. I don't think I have ever eaten anything strange, but I drank almost a whole glass of lemon juice once (not lemonade, which I love, but lemon juice like you cook with). I was really little and I was looking is the fridge for something and I thought it was soda. Well, we never got soda at my house unless it was for a party so I really wanted some, and my mom kept telling me that it wasn't soda. I thought she was lying to me so I kept begging, and I guess she figured I was going to have to figure it out for myself, so she poured me a small glass. And I took a very large mouthful, and I really don't remember what I did after that because I really can't imagine swallowing it. But that is my story for the day. Thank you. (please excuse my ramblings, I have been up way too long already)

Ha Ha. I am with you Cass. I am extremely picky when it comes to food. But it is probably one of my favorite things ever! When I find something I like, I will eat it. And eat it all the time! Cereal for example, sometimes duing the summer I will eat it for breakfast lunch and dinner. I am in love with it. And I like hotdogs too, though they are not one of my favorite foods, just thought I would say it since you guys said you didn't lol. My favorite food is probably food from Taco Bell. Lol.

KADEN YOU ATE WHAT! GOOD LORD *stares in absolute horror and drops glass of tasty orange juice* .....Okay you win Kades that is disgusting, nay, inhumane.
Cass I have to admit your story was cute.
I do the same thing Tate! Except it's usually my parents who go crazy, they find something I like and my dad goes out and empties everyshelf in the store. The worst was a few years ago when I just casually said oh this is yum, I can't remember what it was but I know it had salmon in it then my mum went crazy and fed me salmon for like 2 weeks. Same with goats cheese. I swear I was going to turn into a goat.
