My Top 5 Favorite Movies

ok, so ive been watching a lot of movies lately, so i figure why not let you guys know which ones are worth watching...well, in my opinion at least...

1. Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (starring Michael Cera and Kat Dennings)

Nick, a guy who's just been dumped by his girlfriend meets his ex's friend, Norah, at a club where his band is playing, and they sort of hit it off...they spend all night together running around new york trying to find their favorite band, "Where's Fluffy"...while Nick tries to get some information on his last girlfriend from Norah, she has been infatuated with him since before they even met, due to her love of the many mixed tapes he's been sending to his ex, Tris, who's been giving them to Norah...after a full night of chaos and love-hate relationships, will Nick end up with Norah, this girl he just met, or Tris, his obsession for the past six weeks??

2. She's All That (starring Freddie Prinze Jr. and Rachael Leigh Cook)

After Zach Siler, the senior class president and most popular and "best-looking guy in school," is dumped by his equally popular girlfriend, Taylor, he agrees to a bet with his friend, Dean, that he can make any girl in the school prom queen in 6 weeks...the catch: Dean gets to pick the girl!! After a bit of humorous debate, he chooses Laney Boggs, the school's resident art geek, who is described as "scary and inaccessible" and who is, furthermore, not interested in Zach...but eventually, he gets her to go out with him...before she is officially introduced to the school as his Taylor Vaughn replacement, though, she needs a makeover, and it works!! things seem to be going fine until Dean "accidentally" lets it slip that Laney was just a bet between him and Zach, causing friction between the whole cast...of course, Laney doesn't know that despite the whole bet thing, Zach's fallen in love with her...will he be able to tell her before she leaves the prom with Dean, who doesnt care a bit about Laney, or will Zach step in and save the day??

3. 10 Things I Hate About You (starring Heath Ledger and Julia Stiles)

Cameron, the new guy in school, is immediately infatuated with Bianca Statford upon arrival to his new school, and would do anything to go out with her...of course, its common knowledge that she isnt allowed to date, so when she reveals that her father has allowed her to start dating when her older sister, Kat, does, Cameron quickly devises a plan to get Kat a date...he chooses the creepiest guy in school, Patrick Verona, but he wont ask Kat out without a monetary bribe, so Cameron tricks the school's rich kid, Joey, who ALSO happens to like Bianca, into bribing Patrick...everything is going well until Bianca chooses Joey over Cameron and Kat finds out about the bribe...will any of them get their happily ever afters??

4. Spaceballs

A classic Star Wars parody that's just too chaotic to explain...

5. Juno (starring Michael Cera and Ellen Page)

A young girl gets pregnant with the weird kid's baby and struggles to be a normal teenager and find a good home for her unborn child at the same time...when friction is created between the happy couple who is to recieve Juno's baby, there seems to be no hope for the baby inside her...will all these problems be resolved, or will Juno have to take care of her baby herself??

so yeah, number 5 is debatable, but those are my 5 favorite movies...sorry i got a bit lazy with the descripuions later on, but can you really blame me when ive been up since 6:30pm yesterday?? so yeah, hopefully ill have an update on school soon, but until i can get registered, theres really nothing to tell...until next time (probably in like 15 months, but hopefully not!!), bye

MissonLab New Orleans

ok, so this year the PBBC youth group changed it up a bit and went to New Orleans for the mission trip instead of Canadatown...we participated in a sports camp at Calvary Baptist Church, where we taught the Bible lessons all week...i, of course, was worn out every day from singing and dancing to each class, but it was still pretty fun...there was a bit of tension within the group a few times during the week, but everything was eventually resolved by the end of the week...we even had a member of our team get saved!! so yeah, i was in charge of the slideshow, and even though i had a few technical difficulties causing me to be unable to get the video to the church in time, i've put it up on youtube, so people can watch it independently...

Part 1
Part 2

hope you all enjoy!!
