Happy Friday ladies! I am in a very chipper mood because Labor Day weekend has arrived! For those readers who do not know what Labor Day is, it's the first Monday in September where everyone (but not really) get's a day off of work. In reality, it is our final shebang of the summer before all of the leaves begin to change and the unbearable humidity gives way to the cool breezes of fall and the powdery snow of winter. I love fall. I love winter. GOODBYE SUMMER!
Today is the last JHiggs Original giveaway of the summer. That makes me want to shed a tear. Jamie and I have had great fun these last 5 or so weeks sharing her gift with all of you. Because Jamie has been so generous, I need to show her my appreciation for all that she has done for myself, you guys and KSIBTU—and yes, it will be in the form of one of my EPIC poems.
My beloved JHiggs,
You emailed me for the first time on March 3rd with a picture of your epic birthday cake,
My birthday was the next day, March 4th, and all my shitty friends gave me was steak.
your friends are better than mine.
You soon grew to be my best friend,
But less than one month later that almost all came to an end.
On April 3rd you were t-boned by a lady at a traffic light and literally almost died,
Once I read your email I broke down and cried.
How you lived that day is nothing short of a miracle and a blessing,
And I’d be lying if I didn’t tell you that the details and pictures of the accident had me stressing.
she was the driver. the seat was through the engine and
was squished in half.
I am so very glad that you and your friends were okay,
Because if you weren’t you wouldn’t be able to produce me a painting a day.
You are such a huge part of KSIBTU,
I’m thinking that when we unite in November we should both get tattoos.
I’m just kidding, I don’t really think that.
Yes I do, and it should be pink and black.
So now I shall end this poem because it’s getting too long,
Also, do you want a KSIBTU thong?
..........
I absolutely adore you, JHiggs, and I thank you will never be enough,
And I know my demands can sometimes be tough.
But you sit and you paint and you make everything pretty,
In return I’d like to buy you a kitty.
I’m allergic to cats so that is actually a NO,
Instead I’ll continue to love you and write your name in the sand everywhere I go.
Hawaii, Oregon, California, Washington...
Thank you, JHiggs, for all that you did this summer and continue to do,
KSIBTU would be nothing without you.
this felt right bc of Labor Day.
Sincerely, Jamie, thank you. We all appreciate the time, money and effort you have put into these paintings. I love you more than avocado with turkey and bacon.
Not a lot has been going on in the world of KStew. She was seen in Argentina like this:
I think I UNF for KStew the hardest when she is in the snow.
And she was very gracious in signing autographs for her fans. She also had to face this at the airport:
Nice guy. Serio.
#SamRileyFTW, no? What a man. Lucky wife he’s got there.
While Kristen was flying to NOLA, Rob was doing this:
via @RPLife
What does this have to do with anything?
NOTHING. But how much do you love TomStu getting a piggyback ride from MFH?
Also, this is important because it shows that Rob has a beard.
This was a sad day for me because I love #WFERob.
humina humina humina. What's that? Oh my ovaries bursting? Mkay.
But we all know that #GQRob is my ultimate.
There.Is.No.Better.
It’s such a shame to hide the #JawPorn with a full beard.
Okay, enough RobPorn for the day. Here's a little KStew porn:
Have you seen the most recent Nylon outtakes? DO YOU KNOW THAT IT IS MY FAVORITE SHOOT OF ALL TIME?! I need time...
Now let me show you something horrifying:
#hideyourkids #KILLyourwife?
Now it’s time to tell a story. I had a whole different story ready for today until this happened last night.
Last night, while I was out to dinner with some friends, my brother called me and asked if I could pick him up from soccer practice.
“Sure.” I answered, “Now?”
“Like 20 minutes.” He said.
I ate quickly and left my friends before heading over to the school. It was around 9pm, and I was a bit early so I parked my car and blasted some music. Then I stopped and realized something was different. There were lights on the turf! My high school football field never had lights. The annoying people who lived around the school thought that they would be annoying and too bright. They were finally paid off by the town. Bribery is alive and works.
how come I never get bribed!?
I decided I would get out of the car and check it out. There were some kids kicking around soccer balls and just running around. It was quite nostalgic for me; I’m not going to lie. So I walk around the track for a bit and decide to walk back to my car. I opted to walk behind the bleachers. It’s not as sketchy as it sounds in books and movies. Our field is directly behind our high school. Walking behind the bleachers is necessary to leave.
I am texting on my phone when I hear something. I turn and see some kids getting a little friskAy under the bleachers and I laughed. Then I tripped on a rock and wiped out, and I mean I bit it HARD. My shit goes everywhere and my cell phone flew away. Then it landed. Then I looked at the two people making out and groping one another. Then I realized one of them was my brother.
Then I died a thousand deaths.
THIS! SFM!
I tried so hard to just curl up into a ball and retreat into myself, hoping that if I wished hard enough that I wasn’t in this situation, maybe I wouldn’t be. No such luck. Why? Because the universe hates me.
I looked down at my knees and they were bleeding. My palms were scraped up and burning. I hate that feeling. You know that feeling? I wanted to cry.
I got up slowly and wiped off my hands and knees before lifting my head. My brother looked horrified and his lady friend, A, looked even MORE horrified.
#catquota
Say something! I wanted to scream at him.
It then hit me that they were waiting for ME to speak. Apparently I was the one who was supposed to be saying something because apparently I’m the adult. I looked at my traitorous phone and realized it was halfway between me and the horny teens. I had no choice but to face them--no choice. I walked over and grabbed my phone before looking up to J and asking, “Are you uh…. ready to go?”
He nodded, refusing eye contact with me.
“You need a ride?” I asked her.
“Uh… I mean… sure…” She said in the smallest voice ever.
“Right, okay, let’s go.” I said walking away.
I pulled out my phone ready to send out an SOS as to how to handle the situation, but I couldn’t move.
Once we were in the car I decided the only way to diffuse this situation was to sing.
enough said
No, I’m serious. We all know I can’t sing if my life depended on it, but I thought that perhaps if I made a fool out of myself, they wouldn’t feel so badly that I caught them doing whatever it was they were doing. Also, A looked like she wanted to die, like so embarrassed, which I can understand. I had to make it better in the only way I knew how: humor.
So I roll down the windows, turn on my iPod and Teenage Dream is blaring.
Perfect.
I owned that shit. Are you listening? I OWNED that shit.
And in the middle of my free concert, I look in the rearview mirror and see J eyefucking A at the perfect time of, “let’s go all the way tonight no regrets…” and I am thinking DO YOU HAVE BALLS ON YOUR CHIN KID!?
Then? Then she is doing some coy eye shit [mind you, I’m about to crash the car] and he REACHES OVER AND TUCKS A STRAND OF HAIR BEHIND HER EAR.
this makes me laugh so hard
What.did.you.just.do. Where.did.you.get.that.move.
Who the fuck is this kid!?
If I ever saw that situation play out anywhere else I would say that kid was trying to make sexytime with that girl. The problem was, he’s 15 and he’s my baby brother!
I grabbed the rearview mirror and positioned it at him so that he knew I was watching. I do NOT want to see this shit!
Then my phone rang. My car picks up a cell phone through Bluetooth and puts it through the speakers. This conversation was for all to hear, and it was Mae—and she’s not PG. Ever.
“Hey.” I answered.
“Hey!” She said happily.
“Listen, now is not a good time.” My brother and his make out buddy are in the back seat being weird.
“No big deal, I just had to tell you something. I was in Walgreens looking for some nailpolish, like silver-ish, and I picked one up called Twilight! Isn’t that funny!”
“Yeah, sure, I really have to go though…”
“No, no. I'm not done. That’s not the only thing I saw Twilight related. You know what I just found?” She said laughing.
“What?” I asked.
“Twilight condoms. Condoms! They are black and they have Twilight written over them.”
Perfect timing.
“Awesome. Okay well I need to go—“
“You want me to get you some? I know you’re not the biggest fan of them because you’re on birth control [now you readers know!], but you know you want Edward Cullen. A little fantasy? A little role play? What do you say?”
times a billion.
“Right. No. Okay. Gotta run!” I said hitting end and wanting to vanish.
This ride had just became exponentially more awkward for everyone involved.
“So… A… excited for school to start?” I asked trying to break the silence.
“I guess. I’m kind of over summer. I know that sounds weird, but it’s boring by the end.”
I dropped her off and said goodbye.
The ride home with my brother was deafeningly silent. DEAFENING.
I pulled into the driveway and J went to get out of the car.
“I’m not having sex with her.” He said in a matter of fact way, “We were just…” he paused, “it was just a kiss, okay?”
“You’re not a baby any more, and we’ve always been honest with one another. What you do is your business and I am not here to preach to you.” I said trying to scramble together something responsible to say. I failed. I basically told him to fuck like bunnies because he’s not a baby. YES HE IS. HE’S A BABY.
“Mhm.” He said getting out of the car.
“Wait, J, listen.” I said trying to redeem myself, “no matter what you do… always put a circus tent on it…”
We see the correlation, yes?
Then I said the DUMBEST thing EVER:
“And in the words of Edward Cullen, be safe.”
BE SAFE? SERIO CC? BE SAFE? NOW? NOW IS WHEN YOU QUOTE THAT SHITEOUS BOOK?!
He froze closing the door and peaked his head in the window.
“Any chance we had at a touching moment just there, you just shattered it. Now all I’ll think of is Edward Cullen.” And he shut the door.
See, I always thought it was ironic that Twilight had condoms because they are preaching abstinence. But now I understand.
I wish that this was fake. So badly.
The moment any male sees a condom that has Twilight written on it one of two things happen:
- They become pissed and don’t want to have sex because they realize that there is a 95% chance the woman they are about to do it with is probably thinking about Robert Pattinson
- They get soft because the movie sucks.
EITHER WAY THE SEX NEVER HAPPENS. See? Even the condoms make you abstain.
Well played, Stephenie Meyer Twilight, well played.
Post-revelation I bought every Twilight condom within a 20 mile radius. I plan on giving them all to J the next time I see him.
Now for this is this week’s giveaway. It’s the last, and it’s the best, and there is nothing else to say. Without further adieu I give to you:
The finale
I could perish. Jamie? Are you listening? You have outdone yourself.
To enter, please leave an email address and/or twitter name and answer the following question:
What are you doing this [holiday] weekend? What is your favorite KStew acting moment OF ALL TIME?
My answer: Today I am heading into the city to spend the night with my cousin schmoozing, eating and drinking. Saturday night is my grandmother’s church’s gigantic Italian festival. I will be gorging myself to death. Sunday I will be attending a pig roast and wishing I was actually in Hawaii. Monday is a BBQ at my aunt’s house. And my favorite KStew moment of all time? Well that will come with Adventureland p.2 ;)
Have a a lovely weekend! For those American readers: Have a WONDERFUL Labor Day weekend! Eat, drink, BBQ, and be merry. Oh and drink again, and then have another one for me!
[A/N: Due to the long holiday weekend, Adventureland p.2 will be up on Tuesday. Have a great weekend ladies!]
PS- Today is Garrett Hedlund’s birthday. I want to do terrible, terrible things to that beautiful boy.
Dear Garrett, Happy birthday! God was showing off when he made you. CALL ME!
QueenB@dc.rr.com/@BriannaBusyBee
ReplyDeleteWell since I work retail I will be working this holiday weekend. Lucky me. I might have a "CAKEATERS" moment however where I sneak away with a special someone for the night. ;) Oh thats my favorite Kristen moment btw. She is incredible in that movie. I die. :)
CC! I knew your last "summer" post would be epic. I was cracking up. I think the cat photos seal the deal. My husband wants to know what I'm laughing at, and he just wouldn't understand.
ReplyDeleteTo JHiggs - I am so sorry to hear about your accident, but very thankful that you're seemingly okay [since I dont know much about you.] I was in a motorcycle accident on April 4th and am lucky to be alive. It was a horrible way to spend Easter, but we're both alive and so thankful to celebrate another day. I can't wait to get your painting and hang it up! It's going to be a great moment & I'm sure my husband will facepalm.
This weekend, I am going out to eat, seeing a movie [most likely Vampires Suck] and BBQing on Sunday.
Favorite KStew acting moment? I'm not sure, but recently I watched The Cake Eaters and was impressed with every single thing she did with that movie. It couldn't have been easy, and she just nailed it.
Have an excellent weekend! And oh yeah, Be Safe =P
I am seriously wiping tears from my eyes after that story (of laughter, just to be clear). I think that's one of the most hilarious stories you've ever told us. It even tops the ball-smack story in your last posts, and I laughed until I snorted with that one.
ReplyDeleteWell done, CC. This post was epically random and hilarious.
Oh, and when he tucked her hair behind her ear? All I thought was "He's reading fanfic." I really hope he's not, for his sanity as well as yours. Those M-rated ones might give him ideas.
Twilight condoms? Really? No, really? New low, Summit. New. LOW. But hey, at least they're acknowledging that the entire fanbase isn't made out of pre-teen girls, because they wouldn't want to sell condoms to them. At least I hope they wouldn't. *suddenly worried*
As for what I'm doing this weekend: I have no plans at all. I'm hoping any form of entertainment will come to me without forcing me to search it out.
Favourite acting moment? Uhm... I kinda want to say when she punched Jake in Eclipse, because hey, don't we all want to do that?
A more serious one would be in The Runaways, towards the end when they're in the studio and Dakota doesn't want to sing, and everything goes to hell. Kristen was amazing in that scene.
Oh, and tied as that favourite moment would be in Adventureland, when she comes out of Connell's mom's basement and James confronts her. She plays that so perfectly, omg, I can't even... GUH. No no; UNF. UUUNNNNFFFF. In a sad way, but also a good way, because she's so awesome, but I feel so bad for Em.
Bottom line: Kristen is perfect. As is the last giveaway. Whoever gets that is one lucky KStew Lover. It's beautiful.

Ohhhh CC,
ReplyDeleteToday is actually my birthday too (I feel this means Garrett and I are meant to be, but I know you love him so, so I will tread carefully), and oh. mah. god. Girl, this was a fantastic way to spend my birthday morning as I drank my coffee!! HILARIOUS. And of course that whole story just shows that you own it, so I love it even more.
This probs isn't my favourite Kristen acting moment of ALL time, but given the context of today's post, all I can think about is the scene in Eclipse with Charlie where they have THE talk, which is also hilar. "Uh Dad, I'm a virgin. K, bye!" As she runs up the stairs? Perfection. Win for lots of laughs on this wonderful Friday!
Have a great long weekend, I'll definitely be drinking - I mean, living - it up, and I'll have for you and KStew!
Kate x (@kate_suena)
Oh, and Jamie - jeebus you beautiful girl you, I just CAN'T GET OVER YOUR TALENT. I almost want to say stop because it's just too much, but you know I could never actually do that. <3
CC,
ReplyDeleteI swear, you always have the most epic stories. That is definitely an awkward moment to encounter with your brother...but hopefully someday you will be able to look back on it and giggle hysterically (like the rest of us did ;-))
#TrueStory---->I tried having the birds & the bees talk with my brother, but he was having NONE of it. All I got out of him was, "omg, this is WEIRD!!! I'm not talking to you about that!" lol.
Beautiful painting JHiggs. Definitely going out with a bang! The quote is absolute perfection.
Favorite KStew moment-gah, I have to choose only 1?? 3 come to mind 1.) The way she portrayed the physical illness in The Cake Eaters...I was blown away 2.) At the end of Speak where she is showing her teacher the room full of paintings...she doesn't even say anything, but it is incredibly powerful. It makes me cry everytime I see it 3.) In Adventureland where she tells the evil step-monter, "I don't owe you shit" and then proceeds to pull her wig off. PRICELESS!!!!!!!
I'm sincerely going to miss these movie reviews. It's been something that's kept me going all summer. Hopefully we'll have many more to discuss in the future! ;-)
ROFLLLLLL!!!!
ReplyDeleteFor serious. Stew with her lil ciggie dangling is just like Rob with his lil ciggie hanging. They freakin' smoke the same! I die. And I hate smoking.
I kinda really want that last giveaway. Did you know those pics are my Persona on Firefox? Yeah. I get to stare at her face every time I'm on the interwebs. WIN.
Anyhoodle, my answers:
I am going on an epic pub crawl in my hometown tomorrow. It's kinda of with an unofficial fraroity I'm part of. Don't ask. They choose a charity every year, so we drink AND do a good deed AT THE SAME TIME. We rule.
It's also Mum's bday on Sunday, so there will prolly be a fam BBQ of some sort at the house.
And Monday? I am doing shite. I plan on sleeping in ALL. WEEKEND. I love sleep. More than my cats. Maybe.
Lastly, fave Stew acting moment of all time? Ummm, that might have to be in Adventureland, though that will prolly change once I see WTTR. That's right, I just got tix to see WTTR at the Boston Film Festival! I was supposed to see it in LA at LAFF, but that was an epic fail that was not my fault. So excited!
Have a good weekend everyone!
~ M
This weekend I'm going home to our Nation's Capital! Very excited :) Family time + Beatles Cover bands festival = Win!
ReplyDeleteKStew acting moment of all time?!?! It has yet to come...I just have a feeling about WTTR or OTR.
My favorite one so far...I have to go back to when I got hooked...the stupidly amazing Twilight Ballet Studio and subsequent hospital scene. That's when I got hooked.
@feelgoodeachday
YOU ARE MY NEW BFF!! This post was too funny!! I need to go and find Twilight condoms and give them to my HS group I mentor!! They would die. I'm such a good youth rep arent' I?
ReplyDeleteAnywho this weekend I have a huge picnik planned but then my hubs gave me Sunday as KStew appreciation day. SERIOUSLY!!! He told me since I have to go back to work on Tuesday I could have a day where I could sit and watch all my KStew movies and he will sit and enjoy them w/ me!! He even rented Cake Eaters, which I've never seen *gasps, facepalm* !! So Sunday be jealous of me cuz I'll be watching KStew all day!!
As far as my fave Kristen moment, It has to be her rocking out w/ her guitar in her undies at the end of Runaways. Why? I always get the urge to strip down and jump on my bed w/ my guitar hero bass. (WOW, glad you don't know me in RL, cuz I just admitted a very 2nd hand embarrassing moment!! *Double Facepalm*)
First things first: JHiggs, I don't know you, but was really touched by your story. I'm fairly certain you rock, and your paintings rock too.I want them..bad! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteMy I'm-a-teenager-I-don't-speak-to-my-bloodline-brother has been humming and singing throughout the house, he asked me for opinions on clothes, he poured me soda with a smile on his face. A girl has to be the cause for this behaviour! I'm scared...I think I might need you to send me some of those condoms across the Atlantic! Pretty, please!
I usually work on weekends but I have Sunday off this week! Yey me! I'm having a sleepover at my best friend's house, and I'm sure one of Kristen's movies will end up being watched...
Then I'm going to be really lazy and do nothing because I've been working for 12 days straight and I deserve it!
Favorite Kristen acting moment? Oh boy, I'm torned. I have two, both of them in pt.2 Adventureland:
1st: The "You're not a fucking idiot, I'm a fucking idiot" exchange. Breaks.my.heart.everytime.
2nd: The talking in the rain scene, I love the whole dialogue and...(she is just so pretty)...and the feeling really comes across.
But I'm actually convinced they will change with either WTTR (which is coming to Portugal since today's news!) or OTR. Those movies will rock my life!
OK, so everyone was retweeting your post so I had to check it out. So glad I did because I am dying laughing right now. Seriously laughing out loud. So thank you for that.
ReplyDeleteThe anecdote with your brother is beyond precious and excellent point regarding Twilight condoms!
This weekend I am headed to Disneyland to run the half marathon or as I like to call it - a 13.1 mile fun run. Favorite Kstew acting moment... that's tough to say. I loved all her stuff in the Twilight saga and she rocked in The Runaways but I was especially impressed with this one scene in Speak when they were opening presents and she was so touched by the art supplies they gave her and she wanted to say something but couldn't but it was all communicated so well in her facial expressions without saying a word. Plus she was so young too making it even more impressive.
-Audrey aka @audreythefan
It seems that everything has to happen to you and in in some ways I'm am grateful fot that because this way you can share all your funny stories with us. I seriously couldn't stop laughing here - and I already told you what my family thinks of me when I am giggling all by myself.
ReplyDeleteEpic post, perfect way to end a summer a put a smile on my face as always.
We don't celebrate Labour Day here in Italy, so I have nothing exciting planned for this weekend. But who knows, maybe something will come up anyway :D
Favourite Kristen acting moment? It's really hard to just sit here and think of one...she is amazing in everything she does. But since I saw Adventureland the other day, I'm going to pick a random one from that.
When Em gets back home and her father and step-mother have guest. She says something and Francy says "Is that some kind of joke, Emily?" and Kristen says "No.." with this funny little voice full of sarcasm.
I'm also really happy to know I'm not the only one having a little crush on Mr Hedlund xD The boy IS hot. Happy Birthday to him :)
Enjoy your weekend!

ReplyDeleteMe, I'm spending my labor day long weekend nursing a broken heart (the douchebag took me to a public place to break up with me... ASS. Not to mention wouldn't take responsibility for it and blamed it on other people (but oh, 'you're a really great girl, if it was another time..".. Again.. ASS.) and working closing shifts tonight and tomrow night.. opening sunday.. Can't even drink my sorrows away.
I think my favorite Kristen acting moment was either her vulnerability is Adventureland.. all her little nuances that make Em.. It shows exactly what shes feeling without it having to be written across her face.
Or in The Runaways, when she says 'Aren't we your fucked up family now?"... I dont know.. its just perfection to me.
CC, you know that, it's nothing new, but I fucking LOVE YOU. I was laughing so hard, that my belly hurts. Twilight condoms? OMFG.
ReplyDeleteJHiggs. I have no words. I love your works. If I don't win, I will pay you for painting for me.
This weekend I'm going to do nothing. I don't know yet. I got back home from Paris so maybe I hang out with friends and get drunk.
One of my favs KStew's movie moments is from The Runawyas, when she composes/sings Love Is Pain. I love her voice, it's full of her emotions. And.. she takes a bath there. UNFFF
Oh, and WTTR will be in Poland! can't wait! :)
alice.szczypczyk@gmail.com
Great post. Thanks
ReplyDelete@AnonymousLove Poland!
ReplyDeleteyou made me laugh like a crazy person taking prozac in the space mountain...*that was weird* anyway, the point is you made me laugh. and perhaps that was because I've been in those kind of awkward moments myself... A LOT OF TIMES, but my brother is older than me, well, all the awkward moments have been created by people older than me, so I'm practically the sane person in my home and I'll be scarred for life...
ReplyDeleteanyway, about the condom, what can I say?, is so stupid I can't even make fun of it... you know what would be even more condom twilight kind of funny/weird/lame/perturbing? if the thing actually sparkles!!! can you imagine that?... well, now I have an image in my head I don't whant to have, fuck I'm weird and definetily scarred for life...
lets better answer your questions. I'll be studying for my exams because college hate me. I'm in Mex and here college started 3 weeks ago and they are trying to kill us already, so yeah, I'm be locked in my room trying to understand how does a stupid microcontroller works and shit... pff, we need a labor day here too..
and my fovorite scene is in the runaways, when Dakota is saying she won't sing and people start to fight and "Joan" defends her and then speak to her as a human should speak to other human when they are discussing something. it showed how much joan cared for cherry... and I can relate on that, I've been that joan a lot of times, I've been the one defending my best friend/brother/sister and the one pleading with my eyes and then letting go... and I don't know, that scene made me fell something inside of me, something that made me say "I get you"... for me it wasn't an simple scene, it was art, it made me feel, it made me think, and Kstew made it perfect...
so yeah, that's all... have fun with your weekend, I'll be studying my ass off...
;) God blees you
btw... sorry if my grammar was wrong, I'm not sure if I'm good in this "speaking english" shit, I actually learned it watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S lol...is true...
So, I'm a comment virgin here, but I had to tell you how much I enjoy reading your stories. They seriously crack me up and I do an embarassing fangirl squeal when I see you've updated.
ReplyDeleteNow that THAT is out of the way, my plan for Labor Day is to hang out with my hubby and little one. Nothing epic, just a nice, relaxing weekend!
As for my favorite KStew acting moment of all time? Definitely the Ring Toss Girl in the Flintstones...haha, no, I'd definitely have to say any moment in Adventureland. I love her portrayal of Em. I love how fiercely protective she is of Joel - "You're an anti-Semitic asshole!" And I love how cute she is with James - "Can you please stop saying intercourse?"
Thanks for always sharing your stories, CC. And as for JHiggs, I feel terrible that something like that happened to her but I'm so glad she's okay!
klynne86@comcast.net / twitter- klynne86
THAT'S IT! i've always found your posts super funny, but now you have outdone yourself CC.
ReplyDeletei'm freaking dying here because i'm laughing so hard!!! :DDD too funny!
JHiggs: week after week i've been amazed by your talent and i've always thought "this is the best one" but every week i've found myself saying the excat same thing than the previous week. but NOW i really mean it, that one is THE BEST! thank you! i really hope i win it :D winkwink ;) haha jk.
favorite KStew acting moment. hmm there's so many so how can i choose? i would probably also have to say the "You're not a fucking idiot, i'm a fucking idiot" kills me everytime.
i'm super excited also about WTTR since it will be released here. don't know when but i'm trying to stay positive that it won't take that long. :) have a great weekend and can't wait to come back on Tuesday for Adventureland part.2 :)
oh shoot i forgot my twitter. it's @anni_katariina
ReplyDeleteThat was a FUCKING epic post CC! Except the twilight condoms? FAIL. Wow. Fucking epic fail. I don't want to believe that that's real. Such a fail.
ReplyDeleteMy twitter name is @NothinButKStew and my favorite KStew acting moment of all time? Its The Runaways. i fucking ADORE the shit out of her in that flick. She just nails it!
I'm working this weekend, Saturday and Sunday 8:30-5:30pm. Sometimes, my life sucks.
ReplyDeleteIt's impossible to name my fave Kristen moment. I would probably be something out of the millions of somethings in TYH, Adventureland or Speak. Other than that, I could not narrow it down any further.
That JHiggs original is insane...TO THE MAX! (name that movie) Seriously, Jamie is ridiculously talented.
I hope your weekend is exponentially better than mine.
I'm sort of confused... I think we need to talk because I was under the impression this was a *Kristen* blog... why all the bull shit about Rob? *rolls eyes*
ReplyDeleteSo I was lucky enough to see that story acted out, and it's still just as funny written out. Poor J, poor A - but fuck... POOR YOU. I still can not believe you said "in the words of EC..." BAHAHAHA. That kills me - word vomit, something you and I have in common and I love it.
And as for my favorite K moment acting moment... prolly this: "I know what you are, your skin is ice cold..." bahaha. I can't even keep pretending. For reals, uuuuummmmmm... Adventureland when she's talking about what happened with her mom. I thought that was well played. ;) And I have a video for you, emailllll biotch. *mwah* #teenagedream
CC, that's one of the most embarrassing/awkward stories I've ever heard! I can only imagine how you felt. But at the same time, it was SO funny. You had me laughing so much!
ReplyDeleteWhere I live, we don't celebrate Labor Day in September, but this weekend my family is gathering up at my grandma's beach house for my youngest cousin's birthday. I hate these family events, they're always lame and boring. This will be Saturday, I have no idea what I'll do Sunday.
Btw, today I dreamed about Garrett. Appropriate, huh?! Unfortunately I don't remember the dream, all I know is that he was still fucking hot.
My favorite KStew acting moment would have to be in The Runaways or in Speak. They're both brilliant acting.
I hope you have a great weekend, CC.
xoxo
Your story is so hilarious:D
ReplyDeleteUm I guess this Labor Day weekend I'll have a BBQ one of those days and I have to go to work too at the movie theater:(
My favorite KStew acting moment of all time would maybe be in The Runaways in the scene when she sings I Love Playing With Fire. But I can't wait to see WTTR and OTR!:)
Have a great Labor Day weekend everyone!:)

Hi CC, finally I'm posting for the 1st time (J, your apologetic reader in M'sia during your site's makeover) ! I can connect with you in your story, however I was in J's shoes instead! LOL!
ReplyDeleteHappy Labor to you! Unfortunately, it will not be a holiday in my country, so I'll doing the normal thingy as every other weekend.
My epic Kstew acting moment is the look she has when she saw J.E. waiting for her at the compound after the moment with RR in Advertureland.
CC, wishing you a great weekend!
Everything JHiggs does is awesome! The crash pics are intense and scare the shit out of me. Thank goodness you and your friends were OK. I adore you, J, and your talent and skill render me speechless.
ReplyDeleteCC, I am offended! Yeah, I never thought it'd come to this, but it has. I thought we were friends! Hmph! You know, those Twilight condoms actually come in VERY handy whenever the hubs and I do our Bella/Edward role play, thank you very much. You ought to be ashamed of yourself for making fun like that. I DO have feelings, you know!
Moving on to the question of the day... This weekend I am reading fanfic, having a BBQ at my house (no roast pig, naturally) and hubs is working on the national holiday dedicated to celebrating labor. Oh, and, yeah, I'm gonna be sure to fit in some role play with my hubby using the aforementioned makes-your-partner-glide-like-marble Twi condoms.
One of my fave KStew movie moments (you really should already know this!) is the kiss from The Runaways. I have never been so turned on by a girl in my entire life. I actually spontaneously combusted in the movie theatre. I then rose from the ash like a phoenix and became obsessed with role play and threesome fantasies, occasionally involving my husband. Now you know.
Happy Labor Day weekend my lovely friend.
Xoxo
"The universe hates me." <----- that is my motto. For real. You read my mind sometimes and it's freaking me out. o.O
ReplyDeleteWell, apart from sending my friends a picture of that amazing cake and telling them they have 7 days (my b-day is in 7 days) to prove they love me and make that shit happen, I'm going to the beach. Sunday, I'm headed for the sandy shores of Southern California. Sunburn, here I come. :)
My favorite Kristen acting moment? I don't have the capacity to decide something like that! But I would have to say that the moment that comes to mind right now is either all of Adventureland (or at least "you're not a fucking idiot, i'm a fucking idiot!") or Speak, and please don't kill me for saying this because I absolutely realize how serious this is, but when it shows the rape happening. I'm not a sick freak or anything, but I was just amazed that she was able to play that role. The intensity and the fear are real, and you can feel it. That movie makes me cry every time I watch it. And I have a feeling that WTTR will be the death of me. I love her in the trailer when she says "I'm nobody's little girl."
Anyway. . .Happy Labor Day/Three Day weekend! Sad to see the summer movie/give away fun end, but it's time to move on to the autumn and winter, which I am literally craving right now.

Epic post darling!
ReplyDeleteThis is why I always wished I had sibblings. I never got to experience those awkward moments (or the ones where you get to stand up and protect them - or try to).
My long weekend plans consist of working, then drinking.. more working, then having home made salsa & guac with bestie and watching the Runaways over a bottle of wine (she has yet to see the movie and is VERY excited) and yes, more working and more working. The joys of the casino industry. I'll also be braving Hurricane Early tomorrow & macking with a very cute guy all weekend when I'm not at work. bliss!
Favorite Stew moment. Wow. How can I pick? I think they are mostly all in Adventureland, when she stands up for Joel after that bitch tells him she wont date him because he's Jewish? I cried. KStew snapping "You are not my friend." GOOD GIRL. The "you're not a fucking idiot, i'm a fucking idiot." *dead* I also love in Land of Women the scene with her mom in the hospital when they finally have a moment. Heart wrenching. And her running through Voltera to save Edward - kills me every time.
@takemetobliss
This weekend I will be nursing my cold :'( But Monday, if I'm better, I shall be going to the lake and watching the annual air show :) Nothing too exciting, but what can ya do? And I also have some school work that is staring at me to get done, so that's a priority.
ReplyDeleteAs for my favorite Kristen acting moment..... negl, I'm going to have to say the ending scene of Panic Room. bbStew owns me and that was brilliant. Little Sarah's got guts, man, to jump on a middle aged man's back and stabbing him with your insulin needles? Yeah, Stew was a badass little kid.
Or one of her recent roles, I will have to say her freakout scene in the Runaways. When the band breaks up and she goes absolutely ballistic. She nailed that and it gave me goosebumbs. Her acting as a whole in that movie was outstanding and any part of that movie is love <3
Happy long weekend!
@KStewsShoes
EPIC post! LOL- I totally get where you are coming from with the awkward younger brother thing. Can't tell you how many times I had to pick one of them up from busted house parties and other awkward situations. LOL- the best was when my bf and I were hanging out at my parents place around 10am on a Saturday and who walks down the stairs but his best friend's little sister- who CLEARLY had spent the night at my house (unbeknownst to anyone until that moment)! Since they were both in high school this was a bit....unexpected. (And she may or may not have been from a super religious family...lol)
ReplyDeleteTwilight condoms could not be more of a fail- do they sparkle?!?! So strange the things they try to market with the twilight name.
Anyways, This weekend I will be working (saturday) and spending time with friends (sunday and monday)- complete with a trip to my favorite wine bar.
My favorite KStew acting moment of ALL TIME would have to be any of the scenes between Georgia and Beagle in The Cake Eaters- she was incredible in that movie. Obvs I love her singing in The Runaways too and pretty much all of Adventureland too... ugh so hard to choose.
I think I've read your poem about fifteen times now. It never gets old. Is it weird that every time I see a picture of my car still I say to myself, "Is that real life?!"
ReplyDeleteAnyway, thank YOU for letting me be a part of KSIBTU!! I've seriously had fun creating something new each week. Especially in the early stages of each one where we'd be going back and forth via text/twitter/email all at the same time. Your reactions always had me DYING! And now I'd like to share a few with everyone else:
"Holy crap jamieeeeee"
"OH MY GODDDDD"
"I WANT THAT DESPERATELY"
"HOLY SHIT"
"I'm dead in the middle"
"SHUT UP I'M DYING"
"Omg that is like...We should sell it."
"YES YES A MILLION TIMES YES"
Seriously, I would be on the other end of my phone cracking up at your reactions! I love KStew for bringing YOU into my life. I love YOU for bringing so many other amazingly awesome girls into my life. As for the pink and black tattoos in Nov? #LetsDoThis Oh, and thanks for always writing my name in the sand wherever you go :) Can I watch you write my name in the sand in Nov? Dirrrrrrty!
Congrats to everyone who's won a painting!! And thanks for all the compliments you've all given on them! It really is exciting to know that somewhere out there (beneath the pale moonlight) some of you now own a JHiggs original.
As for those of you who don't? At the request of MANY, I'll be making some available to purchase very soon :)
Aaaand....this weekend, it's birthday parties and lake fun! That is, between working. Boo!!!
And my favorite KStew moment....Into the Wild, singing Angel from Montgomery <3
Oh my God, that was hilarious, CC! I laughed SO hard reading this post, I had to cover my mouth because it's past 4 am here and I didn't want to wake up anyone.
ReplyDeleteI have an 18 year-old brother, lucky me, I never caught him in a compromising situation. Unfortunately he can't say the same thing about me...
It's good to finally know what Labor Day is. All I knew about it was that you don't wear white after it, haha.
I just came from a dinner with my high school girl friends. I hadn't seen them in a month and I really missed them. We had a great time, it was so much fun. Saturday night, we might go to a party with my friends from the University. Sunday I'll spend the day either reading, studying, sleeping or most likely recovering from the previous night.
My all time favorite KStew acting moment? It's so hard to choose one, but probably the conversation between Em and James in Adventureland after she brakes things up with Connell, and the break up scene, and when she yanks down her step-mom's wig, gah so hard to choose one! And I have to mention the bedroom kiss in Twilight because I wouldn't be here if it weren't for that scene.
CC, seriously, you never fail to make me laugh hard.
ReplyDeleteI cannot decide a partcular moment. You know KStew is just amazing in all her movies. Instead, I have favourite KStew acting momentssssssssss.
1. Kristen simply rocked The Cake Eaters by her perfect protraying of a girl with Friedreich's Ataxia.
2. Near the end of Speak, Melinda walked along the school corridor after a fight with the person who raped her. The emotions were all wriiten on Kristen's face. The expression = excellence!!~
3. In Adventureland, it brought tears to my eyes when Em confronted James outside Connell mother's house.
4. Kristen singing "I Love Playing with Fire" in The Runaways just killed me. Also, Joan's yell at Kim in the studio, it's utterly fierce!!!~
5. I think WTTR would be great!!~ The line "I'm nobody's little girl" in the trailer is pretty impressive.
The ridiculousness of Twilight paraphernalia never fails to blow my mind. Toilet paper? Check? Sparkly "toy"? Check. And now condoms? CHECK. But while you can buy these things, the experience of catching your baby brother make out with a girl -- and get all Edward Cullen by tucking her hair behind her ear-- Motherfucking priceless! CC, your life is full. Serio.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite KStew acting moment was the 25-plus seconds of LIES in Eclipse, because it takes a real actress to make that moment seem like any semblance of reality, want and passion.
On the real, I'd probs have to go with the Runaways with her holiness as the epic Joan Jett. I particularly love the desperation with which she tries to keep Cherry in line at the end.
love you forevsies bb.
CC, seriously, this post was hilarious, although I am still very curious on your second announcement.
ReplyDeleteIn regards to the weekend, I just bought a car and I was so excited to go to the beach and enjoy the long weekend, but Earl is here and is raining like crazy and it's super windy, so for today only indoors. Maybe tomorrow or Monday my hubby and I we'll go to the beach if the weather cooperates.
My favourite Kstew moment has to be when she sings I love playing with fire, she was totally Joan in that scene. I really want to see WTTR, hopefully will come to Canada next month.
@christita82
Teenage Dream! My current summer jam. Just ask Iris - I talk to her about Katy Perry probably more than I should. So that made me smile.
ReplyDeleteFave acting moment? I'm going with Em discovering James outside Connell's mom's house and her reaction to being caught, feeling used, feeling like she's ruined everything. It's real and I think we can all relate when it feels like everything is collapsing around you.
This labor day weekend I will be enjoying 2 days off in a row - something that hasn't happened in over a month. I intend to sleep and apply for jobs. Yay labor!
Beach bonfire dance party in November. Bring it. #letsdothis
Oh, man this post was even more epic than I thought it would be!! Man, do you know how much I laughed!? While I was reading this I was laughing so hard that when my mom came through the front door she was like "Was that you?" "Yes" "I could hear you out in the stairwell!". That only made me laugh harder.
ReplyDeleteThis weekend I've been so far spending taking it easy. I've been sick the past week but tomorrow I'm running a race. I need to rest before so I'll do well. I'm really excited about it!
My favorite Kristen acting-moment is a tough one. Keep in mind that I haven't seen either The Runaways or Welcome to the Rileys. Both will come to Sweden though, which has me so excited I almost peed my pants when I found out! I LOVE Adventureland, so I think I'll have to say the scene where James finds out she's sleeping with Connor. When she's surprised and ashamed at first and then screams "You're not a fucking idiot - I'm a fucking idiot!". It's so raw, so heartbreaking and so very Kristen-ish. I'm just blown away by the intensity of that scene everytime I watch it.
I'm gonna be SO jealous of whoever wins this week. Before it's been like "meh, maybe I'll win next time" but now it's the last one. Plus it's the best one, and I mean really the best one. When you say it's gonna be epic, you don't dissapoint. I loved that photoshoot. It totally portrayed Kristen in a completely different way than the media usually do it. A better way. I loved seeing all the different sides of her. God, I just love her.
And I flove you and your blog. As you can tell, I like repeating myself.

Hey CC .. I laughed so hard I cried .. but how should I put this it could be worse : when I was searching for some link in history I saw that my 10 y o brother that just left the computer watched soft core porn >> Moment to put a bullet to the brain =NOW!!!Cue most embarrassing conversion in my life so far ...
ReplyDeleteAs for the Q's A 1.this weekend I had to take an exam > FML!!!

ReplyDeleteTo answers your question, this weekend I get to help my older brother move into a new house. By help I should mention that means, I will be standing around giving "incouraging" words while watching other people lift heavy things! hahaha..
As for fav Kstew acting moment of all time..I dont even know how to choose! so much epicness to choose from but at the current moment I would have to say the scene in the Runaways where she goes off in the studio "Just shut the f#%k up Lita! just..shut the f*ck up!"
Major props to JHiggs! that is actually one of if not my fav kstew photoshoots ever! so much win there!
pinkkittie07@hotmail.com
CC! BAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That is classic. I have my own brother and condom story. I think it's an experience you just end up having when you have siblings. When my bro found my birth control pills, he kind of freaked out.
ReplyDeleteAnywho. This weekend: Saturday is football day. All day. It is a tradition. Sunday is car wash day. It's been like 10 months since I washed my car. She is weeping. Monday: not a damn thing. My weekend plan is super boring. Although I may hit up the beach. Favorite acting moment? I only get one? Um... WttR: I'm no one's little girl. Gut. Wrenching.
Congrats to the phenomenal JHiggs for putting together epic pieces all summer for your giveaway... and on her made survival skills! That wreck... there are no words. So glad she made it out.
Goodbye, summer. I will miss you so much. I only like fall and winter for the football and holidays.
ellelala
I'm really sad these summer posts are coming to an end, I am going to miss them dearly. They never fail to have me crying on the floor with laughter.
ReplyDeleteThis weekend I'm not really doing anything, my life is too boring,although the neighbors are having a party today but everyone there is a kiddie.
I have two all-time favorite Kristen acting moments (I can't choose between the two). 1) In Adventureland when she has the freak out with Jesse. I loved how you put it, it really just was so much raw emotion and I felt like I was feeling her pain! 2) All of Speak. Period. That movie makes me cry everytime I watch it. She has very few lines but her mannerisms are so powerful, and she was so young at the time too, that movie just has to prove to everybody how great of an actress she is.
Hope you have a fun weekend!

Hey! CC i flove your post today (why i always say that?? right because it's true! its Fuc*kinG amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI almost die of so much laughing! i can't imagine to be in that situacion ..i can’t ever handle that, I think that despite all you handled it well.
I read with rhythm of poetry you know .. as in rhyme and when I finish... i continued to read with the rhythm lol (I'm crazy I know)
anyway... in my country it's not labor day or anything like it it's just a normal weekend so i probably won't do anything great.. same o same ... dinner with my family go out with friends and maybe go to see a movie? i don't know ...
well my favourite kstew moment? it's a tricky question ... i loved it in New Moon when she is so depressed cause i can totally feel IT you know... when in the screen you see october, november.. december oh my god and that song i loved that song i think was just perfect, this scene makes me wanna cry (and i never cry) and the line?
"But In a way, I'm glad. The pain is the only reminder that he was real. That you all were. " *death*
So yeah scenes like this reminds me that kstew is way better than me....i totally love this moment so... yeah this is my fav kstew scene ever...
@alecita09
alecita.07 @ gmail.com
That cake is brilliant. Serious. JHiggs, your friends are def better than mine.
ReplyDeletePiggyback GIF FTMFW!!!! That is pure gold.
Your story is all kinds of humiliating & hilarious. I love your Twilight condom logic.
That final painting KILLS me!!! UNF! I heart that picture sequence so hard. I want that painting in my possession.
I work a Sat-Wed schedule, so this holiday Monday lands smack dab in the middle of my week. So no long weekend for me… just a cut up week…. But hey, I’ll take a paid day off where I can get it.
Asking me to pick my favorite KStew acting moment OF ALL TIME is like asking me to pick a favorite amongst my future children. It just can’t be done. There is a spark of brilliance in everything I’ve seen her in… but for the sake of the question; one of them is from ITLOW when she finally really talks to her mom in the hospital. Gah. Heart wrenching.
woow. woow...I laughed so hard but it's so embarassing xD. sometimes the timing is too bad. oh my oh my ..
ReplyDeleteWe haven't labor day, so the weekend was nothing special. I can chill for half a year now because university becomes just in october. cuase i have to move out for that, I'm packing all the time and buying stuff. it looks like a mess here ._. so that's my 'special weekend' ^^. today the big stores were open. i love shopping on sundays (:
fav. KStew moment of all the time.? I can't decide that. No. No. No. I love her acting in every moving so..i have no idea..
can't wait for Tue :D
bb
@tinieh
bhahahahahahha.
ReplyDeleteas if my birthday weekend wasn't ridiculous enough, this just hit it out of the park.
your behind the soccer field story sounds exactly like something would happen to me.
....instead, this weekend I was constantly questioned about my ex-boyfriend by my ENTIRE family. super cool.
Life is awkward and I've learned there isn't much you can do about it besides just laughing at it.
the Jhiggs piece looks AMAZING! whoever gets that is a lucky girl (or I guess possible a guy?...no, most likely girl)
have a lovely labor day!
I actually have done nothing this weekend. Not because I am boring and lame (maybe just a little), this just happens to be my last set of free time until October 3rd. Yes, I am working from Tuesday, September 7th until Sunday, October 3rd. I might have 1 day off somewhere in there, but can't be for certain yet...My only saving grace is that I actually really like my job and my customers, otherwise I might have killed someone by now. Not that I won't want to in a few weeks...So, while I wish I could/would have done something fun for Labor Day, I had a quiet weekend with myself and enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Stew performance would definitely have to be Adventureland. Watched it multiple times this weekend and is always my go to movie for a bad day.

i LMFAO at you & your bro story(wipes tear)!!!
ReplyDeletemy fav Stew movie moments...so many to choose!!! but i of my fav deff after "hair pulling evil step mother wig" in Adventureland, when her father confront her and she retaliated!!! fucking brilliance that scene!!!
p.s dangling cigg Stew is the hottest thing ever!!!!!UNFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!
What is this mysterious 'labor day' you speak of?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, this weekend I mostly cleaned up the snot of young children.
My favoUrite K moment? The Bella/Charlie sex talk in Eclipse.
#TB4eva
Eh this weekend has kinda sucked for me. I started my 1st day of my 1st ever job on Saturday and it was just… ew. I've been working on school projects and I hit up target to buy some tampons and junior mints (weird combo, I know, but thankfully the cashier didn't notice or give me a weird look b/c she was distracted by my yellow Nike hi tops, which she complimented me on). And of course on actual LABOR day, I will be WORKING. Hoorah! *sarcasm*
ReplyDeletewhat got me thru the weekend was your lovely posts and my sister who came home to visit for her birthday, so that was good.
Hm fav kstew acting moment? I personally FLOVE her in adventureland more than any other movie ever. Everyhing about that movie and every scene she's in is just like… fucking awesomeness. Or there really aren't words to describe it, it's just that amazing.
P.s. OMFG Garrett… *faints* 2 hawt 4 words…

Awesome post as always!!! You can never admit to yourself that your baby bro or sis is having sex until its staring you at the face.
ReplyDeleteDoing this weekend? BBQ with family and friends then sleep all day. And my favorite acting moment is probably Speak..always and forever.
twitter: @ defintelydone
Great and hysterical post as always!!!
ReplyDeleteMy big comment is about the condoms. Now I am the person who has every twilight item imaginable. Everyone I know brings any twi-merchandise they ever come across and I DON'T have these! Imagine my shock! So I went to ebay because everything in the world is listed there and....NADA!! So consider your self lucky to have this unusual paraphenalia...LOL
