Nightmare Before Christmas :D 25/Oct/2007

Archivado en: Television — elenasanzocalonge @ 20:38

Who haven’t seen this film? Maybe some people… huge mistake! I love this film! 10 days ago, Raquel and Helena were at my home, and we saw this film in the TV, although I don’t remember which channel… I like so much the songs:

What’s this? What’s this?
There’s color everywhere
What’s this?
There’s white things in the air
What’s this?
I can’t believe my eyes
I must be dreaming
Wake up, Jack, this isn’t fair
What’s this?”

“This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Pumpkins scream in the dead of night
This is Halloween, everybody make a scene
Trick or treat till the neighbors gonna die of fright
It’s our town, everybody screm
In this town of Halloween”

And I also like the characters: Jack Skellington, Sally, Oogie Boogie, Doctor Flinkestein, the Mayor… 

And now Tim Burton (the director) is going to premiere a new version of it: in 3D! What wonderful news!!!

And advice: kids, and olders; everybody, see this film!

 

Boston Celtics! 25/Oct/2007

Archivado en: Sports — elenasanzocalonge @ 20:18

They are the basketball team of Boston (in the NBA) and they are really good! A lot of people know them because of their success. Some of the famous player are: Paul Pierce (34), he is the most famous; Eddie House (50), Kevin Garnett (5)… and twelve more. In the coaching staff, there are: a head coach, 4 assistant coaches, 2 strengh and conditioning coaches and a head athletic trainer. There are a lot of cheerleaders too, I don’t know the exact number. The name of the stadium is TD Banknorth Garden (formerly known as the FleetCenter); and it’s sooooo big, it has a 19,580 maximum seating capacity. It was opened in 1995. Their colours are the green and white, and the symbol is a shamrock with 3 leaves.

Halloween Party 25/Oct/2007

Archivado en: Halloween — elenasanzocalonge @ 19:57

The another day (the last saturday) we had a halloween party in the Portuguese club. Spanish and American guys went, but not everybody. It was fun, but sometimes boring, because we were few people and the parents were there…

My costume was a little girl who was going to sleep :) Some people were a scarecrow, a grandmother, a musketeer, an angel, some devils, some jockey and football players, a mexican…

We were eating halloween sweets, pizza, cookies…We were dancing and talking, and we were carving pumpkins! It was a little disgusting because of the sticky pulp…but it was OK. I emptied my pumpkin and the one of a friend, and then we carved them. There were a lot of different designs but a lot were similar; then we voted the most beautiful and original; but I don’t know which one won.
