Oscar Night! And I want it to be Oscar Specific.

Today has been boring. Actually I am just bored now because I am supposed to be studying. But I will do anything to avoid it. ANYTHING! Today I chose blogging. As for the rest of my life, there are currently some exciting developments at work but I am not allowed to fully disclose them at present. All I can say for now is the word "coup." Now I fear I've said too much. As for school, it is the same. I have altered the course of my life once again by choosing a new career, but I tend to do that every two weeks or so.

I watched the Academy Awards last night and I must say the show would of been much better with more Hugh Jackman dance numbers and less acceptance speeches. We get it, this is your life dream coming true. ...ZZZ... As for the dress choices... I finally have a pulpit to give my 2 cents on best and worst dressed so I am totally going to take advantage of it.
I'm going to start out with Best Dressed Male because it is the easiest and I will admit I am totally biased...

Robert Pattinson (and you thought I was going to say John Mayer)

Look how handsome he looks in that tux though. I mean the boy knows how to wear a suit. It also helps that he is devastatingly handsome, but I digress.

Anyways, as for Worst Dressed Male I am not even going to bother in naming anyone because in the end no one really cares about that category anyway. It's sort of like the Best Short Foreign Animated Film of the Fashion critcs. No one really cares. (I'm really not sure if that is a category, but you get what I'm saying)

Ok, next Best Dressed Female!:


This is always a fun one and there were a lot of gorgeous dresses this year so it is a tough one as well. But my award goes to:
Natalie Portman
Now I am generally never a huge fan of pink, however Natalie made it look great. Also, she kept it simple with her hair up and no necklace. Love it!

If only I had a reason to wear a gown like this! For some reason I don't think any of my professors would appreciate me showing up to class in something like this. Oh well.
Now, onto the most fun category. WORST Dressed Female! Oh the excitement! I'm going as far as to have nominees for this category so they are as follows:

1) Jessica Biel for her white towelesque shapeless sheet. Furthermore, it was easily wrinkled.
2) Sarah Jessica Parker for her over the top belted white wedding dress(?)
3) Beyonce Knowles for her mother-designed gown that looked like window treatments.


And the Oscar goes to...
Beyonce Knowles
The usually flawlessly dressed Beyonce fell flat with this gown (if you can call it that). Sources (Perez Hilton) tell me her mother designed it so I guess it makes a little more sense. But honestly there is just no valid excuse for the atrocity of this dress, that looked like window curtains wrapped (albeit tightly wrapped) around a human body. Uggh.. Better luck next year, Sasha Fierce.

I'll take care of Luca Brasi...

They just don't make movies like they used to. When I say "used to" I mean like they did in 1974 before I was born. So where did this revelation come from? Obviously from Italian Tuesdays (dine-in Pizza Hut restaurant followed by watching the Godfather). Watching it all the way through (w/o the 10 minute commercial breaks courtesy of American Movie Classics) just makes it so much better too. I have finally reached the point where I actually know who all the gangsters are by name and I must say it makes me feel really cool. I have even decided to start peppering my conversations with Godfather references. Who could of guessed that it was Barzini all along and not Tattaglia! Not me! They shot Sonny in the toll booth. OMG! Not Sonny! (He was my favorite)

So I guess what I really want to know now is what can I change my major to that will qualify me to be the Don of a mafia family? I think organized crime may be where my future lies. It's better than selling life insurance after all.

This is Luca Brasi :
(being "taken care of")

Tobias Funke, where do babies come from?

Tobias Fünke: Yes, okay, uh... well, have a seat. Uh... um... when a man... needs to prove to a woman that he's actua- when a man loves a woman, and he actually wants to make love, uh, to her, something very, very special happens. And with deep, deep concentration and, and great focus, he's often able to achieve an erec...
George Michael Bluth: I'm sorry, I'm going to stop you. I know what you mean. I, I didn't mean babies in general.

Tobias Fünke: Oh, well that's good. Because it was about to get a little, eh, gross.
