i think that people go through a lot in life. and the things that we go through, whatever they may be, simply just make us stronger in the long run… that is, if we actually take what it is we have learned from our mistakes and teach ourselves what NOT to do in the future. i have gone through a lot in my past, and to be completely honest, i am still going through a lot right now.. my father just let my family and i know, amongst others that he had another child after my little sister Aliana, or maybe he had it before Aliana?? either way, he cheated on my mother and that really sucks… MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! wow- do i sound like "debbie downer" or what? not trying to be… but back to the real reason for this blog-i feel like Britney Spears is an amazing talent, and she has gone through a lot, (just as i have) in the public eye.. which is not necessarily a bad thing.. It teaches young girls and boys that there are certain things in life that you should not let get in the way of your dreams and accomplishments. also that you need to take care of yourself before anyone else, and i mean anyone and everyone else. because at the end of the day, you have to look at yourself in the mirror and see who you really are. stripped of all the distractions in life. so YAY Britney for just being you and still following through with your dreams. i know i am a bit late in writing about this record since it came out already, but better late than never!!!! 🙂 HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! I love my mom, aliana, cody, michael, and my nana sullivan!! i will be missing them this christmas as it is the first one i am spending away from home. i am spending it with Samantha in Los Angeles. yours truly, Lindsay
There were rumors that the girl that claimed to be Lindsay Lohan's half-sister really was, and now as you can see Lindsay Lohan confirmed it. You have to feel so bad for her. Lindsay Lohan's MySpace blog is really personal and you can see how much she has grown in 2008. Like the person she wrote about, Britney Spears and her have both changed so much for the better. Hopefully in 2009 will both will continue down the same path because this has been the right one for both of them!

Is Horror’s new thing 3D and no longer the genre Eli Roth popularized? Well The NY Times seems to think so with the upcoming releases of My Bloody Valentine 3D, Final Destination 4 in 3D and Piranha 3D to name a few.
If “My Bloody Valentine 3D†is a success  and with a modest budget of about $20 million, success is easily within reach  the next big thing in horror could be at hand, said Joe Drake, the co-chief operating officer of Lionsgate and the president of the studio’s motion picture group. “We see 3-D horror as financially lucrative and creatively exciting,†he said. “We want to break some new ground here in R-rated fare.â€Â
Horror tried 3D in the ’80s with Friday the 13th, Jaws, Nightmare on Elm Street and Amityville Horror and all did crappy, so I don’t think that will be the answer. I think people want their blood in blood red and not 3D red. I know I have personally never been a fan of 3D because I like my movies in color and was never wowed by the effects of knife or eyes coming at me. In fact I never heard someone say, OMG having that horror movie in 3D was the best thing. Plus with HD, 3D kind of seems archaic. I think horror movie fans would rather see another Hostel like movie than a 3D horror movie.
Now I am not saying that I want My Bloody Valentine to do bad in the Box Office because I am a huge fan of horror, but I think the 2D numbers will be much higher per screen than it will in 3D. Seriously who here is leaping out of their seat to see a 3D horror movie? I can’t see with or without my 3D glasses.
