In which Demi swoons a little.

Just finished watching the Star Wars trilogy prequel, with Episode One before bed. Not quite sure why I decided to watch them in the wrong order. That's just how I roll I guess ;)

I pretty much swoon every time Ewan McGregor is in the shot. I don't know what it is about him that makes me so gaga. He's not a pretty boy, but neither does he fully pull off the badass look. He's a little scruffy looking and rather... plainly handsome, in a way that I can't put my finger on. Added to the fact that he's apparently a lovely person, as well as being funny and charming (as witnessed in several interviews) and I am pretty much a puddle of goo with little little love hearts floating in it.

I think the fact that he's a good actor helps. He's one of the few actors that I will go to see in a film, even if I'm not sure if I'll like it. Because he tends to win me over every time. I'm itching to see his new film coming out later this year, with Eva Green called Perfect Sense (click to see trailer) which looks interesting and gorgeous. I'm also still meaning to see him in 'Beginners', which I heard is really good. Oh Ewan, won't you just marry me??

Went out for dinner with two of my best girls tonight, one of whom is heading off to Hong Kong next week to study abroad for a semester, and we won't see her until February now. It's made me long for the travelling I've started to plan for after graduation. Instead of jumping straight into a job, I'm hoping to have built up enough experience this summer to allow me to take a year out first. I want to head out east, for the first time, and see parts of Malaysia and Indonesia. Then Australia, and round it off with a couple of hot-spots in the US, especcially San Fransisco and Boston. I'm getting butterflies just thinking about it.

Until then, I'm gonna have to work hard and get the grades to be able to afford the time off. Time for bed, and dreams of Force powers and a purple lightsaber. I think I'd make an excellent Jedi. xo.

I don't think they make lightsabers in hot pink. Shame.
