Ironically I made my entire family watch White House Down a couple days ago and the movies are SOOOO SIMILAR!!
In both movies the leak/problem came from within the Secret Service and it was oh soooooo unexpected in both movies. I honestly prefer White House Down simply because it had more humour in it. The fighting scenes in Which House Down also seemed more realistic. One thing Olympus has Fallen had on White House Down is the political backlash of the attack which drew you in a little more and made it more realistic I guess. The acting was also better. Then right after the movie was back to the airport to pick up my dad which made trip number 2 to the airport for me in one day.
Anyways, on Saturday morning was Nick's graduation at 10 (no pictures yet :( so just try to imagine it) and then mine was in the evening so that meant that we each went to 2 graduations. The morning ceremony wasn't bad at all. It was short and sweet and the speeches were sort of interesting. For my graduation, every seat available for the graduates was full. The speeches were boring if not the same from the morning. The only interesting thing was the way the audience reacted to the sight of a very short, tight dress. Naturally I wanted to see what the reaction would be to my dress but I don't remember anything from walking across the platform.
All in all it was a good day which was made better with dinner at Bubbas for my usual spaghetti and meat sauce but this time there was not milkshake but a fruit punch instead. As usual I didn't finish it but Nick was there to do it :).
On Sunday was a beach day! :)
Yes Nick's eyes are closed..... |
The beach was awesome as usual and there were a bunch of fish swimming around us. After the beach I involuntarily took a nap for a couple hours. And that turned into lets go to dinner at Lemongrass. Of course I couldn't say no to Phad Siew so we went and I fell in love with that dish all over again.

This is a picture of the first time we got it, the one I got on Sunday was soooo much more food :) |
I can't decide if I like Phad Thai or Phad Siew better right now so maayyyybbbbeeeee I have to have it again to make my decision :) Looking back at this picture makes me want to go right back and have some....like now! After dinner I dropped Nick home and went back home. On Monday I wanted nothing more than to sleep in because IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY!! Of course my phone kept buzzing and then my dad and sister came in my room to wake me up but I fell right back to sleep :). I was happy that it was my birthday but then a bit sad cause Nick was going back to Canada so I tried not to think about it. Lucky me got breakfast made for me at Nick's house :)
I got french toast with scrambled eggs and sausages :) and it was delicious. Somehow after a lazy morning we were running a bit late with errands when it came time to go to the airport and the goodbyes were rushed. In a way it worked out ok and I wasn't really able to fully think about him leaving again so it was much better than the first time :(.
Anyways, its a new day and I need to get back to my studying. I'm contemplating leaving out a couple tv shows and stockpiling them to watch on Sunday nights but then I think that takes away from my reading time so I have some things to sort out. I can't decide which book series to start next! I have 3 of them, Hush Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick, Elemental by Brigid Kemmerer, and Significance by Shelly Crane. I'm leaning towards Hush Hush since I got it first so maybe I'll go with that. I got Allegiant today so I also have that to read! I'm really excited to get started on that one.
Time to get started on my day!
