I’ve thought about it, and Step Up 2 really is just like any other mediocre story that I’ve read online. The plot is not very clear, the chemistry between the characters is kind of just non-existent, to be honest, and the events are unrealistic. Things like Andy’s speech at the end was corny, the way that the brother just suddenly changed his mind at the end was out of character, the beliefs of characters and the things that the scriptwriter wanted for characters’ to feel were unfounded (like what’s-his-face’s fascination with Andy), and not all of the tools and possibilities that the movie itself held were exploited. There was no synchronization of both the ballet/jazz/modern stuff that MBS or whatever they are teaches at their school and hip hop. It was all just hip hop, which is totally unrealistic. And what about the daily lessons after school with the brother? Those pretty much just stopped once Andy was kicked out of the crew. AND THE GUY’S JACKET WAS COMPLETELY DRY AT THE VERY END EVEN AFTER THEY HAD JUST DANCED IN THE RAIN. Anyways. I think the main thing was the relationship between Chase and Andy. Is that his name? Chase? It just didn’t really make sense. I couldn’t tell if she liked him or hated him in the beginning. I mean it seemed like she was annoyed by him, but at the same time the director knew that they had to get her to like him. It didn’t make any sense. I mean she was hot and cold with him. There wasn’t a good build up to them being together, and there wasn’t even really much of them together. You can tell that it’s all acting.
It was an okay movie. As I said, mediocre. But to be honest, there are so many fics online that have much better plots, character development, and consistencies than Step Up 2. The idea of having it be the little sister was a good one – a nice way to make a sequel while having all new characters. I don’t know. It was okay……
1. Do you ever wonder if the way you see things visually aren’t how other people see them? I actually have wondered this. Like color hues. How do we really know the TRUE colors? I mean obviously people look at the same thing and notice different things about it as well. It’s just like reading a story and seeing the story through a different scope than someone else. You pick up things that maybe the person next to you won’t pick up, and them the same. And then of course there are the people with the worse eyesight… I wonder what establishes 20/20 vision anyways. Like what the basis of that was. What if the world was really meant to be seen blurry…? Hahaha. Okay that’s a stretch, but still a kind of interesting thought, ne?
2. What kind of sounds are the most annoying? A lot a lot a lot! I absolutely treasure silence. So… well nails against a chalkboard, typical, but I mean that doesn’t REALLY get to me. I can’t stand the sound of people chewing gum. The sound of people biting their nails. I can’t stand it when people talk while I’m still taking a test. I can’t stand it when people talk while I’m trying to read, especially if I’m in between them. I think it’s really annoying when people put their phones on speaker phone. I hate that sound of when people burp like in their throat. It’s still so gross. Um, lots of other things too, lol.
3. When walking through a store, do you shop with your hands by touching/feeling the texture of things? Haha, yes. I love the feel of soft things. I always have to touch the fabric =] Also I just get bored and need something to do with my hands so… yeah.
4. If you could only smell three scents for the rest of your life, what would they be? Oh, that’s extremely hard, and what is classified as a scent anyways? The smell of food, especially baked food and fruits, the smell of nature, like fresh air and flowers, and people’s unique smells. You know. That special scent everyone has to them that’s uniquely them.
5. What sorts of things do you savor when eating them? The taste. Perhaps the quantity, if that makes any sense.
FictionPress updated! It’s kind of cool, though not much different. I’m just happy to see that they’re still maintaining that site 
You know, I realized while Fp was down that Fp is like… inelastic. There really is no alternative for it. Haha. Econ. (:
I finally just sucked it up and submitted my application for Paris, France this Summer! I’ve settled on ISA, which is totally contradictory to my last post about my summer plans, but about an hour after I wrote that entry, I became really weary of the apartments for AIFS and they just really bothered me… and then I found ISA. ISA is actually a lot like CEA, but I feel like it’s a smaller program. There are only 2 different summer sessions for their program, and there are about 30 people in each session, so it’s not like CEA where you’re more of just a number and there are so many different classes, sessions, programs, etc. going on that it’s totally just mixed. The dates for ISA also work out more nicely than AIFS, because with AIFS, I would have to bring all my clothes for Hawaii too, and I would be on the plane for like over a day. I’d have to come back from Paris to SFO, then fly from SFO to Hawaii… all by myself and with like 6 weeks’ worth of clothes and luggage, plus souvenirs from France. I know I was excited about going to London, but really you only get to go to London for like 1 day, and that’s just not enough to explore everything about such a wondrous city as London. I think maybe I’ll go there next summer or something.
I could probably say a lot more, but I won’t. Gah. I just want to read. Honestly, I was pretty pissed after getting lost twice coming home from Christine’s, and dealing with slow and stupid drivers, and driving in general, etc. etc. I just want to READ man. Thank goodness for Fictionpress. Oh. Let’s say that again. I don’t think the importance of that message was conveyed in my presentation. Thank GOD for Fiction Press.
I got a disappointing score on my timeline… *sigh* I don’t even know anymore. It was below the class average… yeah. Way to make me feel amazing. Overall though the last two days have been good. We’re watching Teach Me English in Korean class and it’s starting to get soooo cute omg they’re so cute together
