Note to self: Never give a book character your name. Especially if they are cooler than you.

So we went to go see Nim's Island today. It was cute. Abigail Breslin was in it (she's in everything nowadays- including one of the previews before the film tonight), and she's cute- also one of the better child actresses out right now. But we pretty much only went because Jenny has a big crush on Gerard Butler (she'd deny it, but it's so true). Also, I love Jodie Foster. The whole plot with the cruise ship run by Fearless Leader that extremely stereotypical villain seemed a bit out of place, but whatever. The scene where she talked to the cruise ship boy in the woods was nice. I don't know, though, I was kind of hoping the father would die- it would have made the whole thing less cheesy. But you know... After the film I was extremely energetic, for some reason (we stayed until the theater was empty- because mom always likes to wait until the credits are over- and I danced back and forth across the top row singing Et Moi, Et Moi, Et Moi in my head). On the way out Jenny and I did our usual run for the front seat (we're so mature), and when she won I collapsed in fake sobs on the grass in front of the car. Mom walked past and said it's to believe that I'm almost eighteen. I'm inclined to agree with her.
