The Friday Five and Allergies
1. Do you plan to watch the Oscars broadcast this Sunday?
No. Have never been interested in celebs clothing and their awards, although good for them for their hard work!
1. Do you plan to watch the Oscars broadcast this Sunday?
No. I've never been interested in celebs, their clothing or their awards, although I commend them on their hard work on the movies they are nominated for.
2. Have you seen many of this year's Oscar-nominated films?
No, unfortunately, but look forward to seeing them on streaming sites!
Wait, I just checked out the nominees and Ke Huy Kwan has been nominated for best supporting actor in Everything Everywhere All at Once.
O.M.G
That's the little boy from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Goonies LOL!!! That little boy. I can still see him underneath. I was a super fan back in high school. He was so cute. I even sent him a fan letter and got a postcard back. The movie looks pretty interesting. Definitely my kind of topic - multiverses and such. Good for him, though for getting the nomination. That is pretty awsome.
The Banshees of Inisherin
Looks pretty interesting, but I don't know if I want to watch it. Funny but depressing... meee.
MRS. HARRIS GOES TO PARIS sounds BEAUTIFUL. I would love to watch it.
THE FABELMANS looks really good too.
ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT I don't think I want to watch. I have read it.
CLOSE looks really good.
3. Which movie is your pick for Best Picture?
4. What are some of your other picks to win Oscars?
I can't answer these but see above for thoughts of a person who has seen none of them.
5. What is your favorite movie of all time?
Mary Poppins. The first one. I know, but it is the one movie that I watched over and over and over and over and over with my best friend in elementary school/middle school. We never got tired of it. I just rewatched it recently while I did my exercises and I enjoyed it again. It's messages are important, the actors are great (I'm sorry Dick's accent disturbs the British, but even so he is a great actor), the songs and dancing are wonderful and it is my most favorite movie of all time.
Which nominated movies have you watched? Tell me what you think of them!

So, since about four days ago, my eyes (especially my left) has gradually gone from grainy to painful, which spread I think to my nose, gums, tonsils and left part of my head in general. The whole side of my face was swollen last night before I took some painkiller. I wisdom tooth that acts up when other parts of me are not well, which is why my gums were so swollen and painful. I went to a new eye doctor today to figure out if it was allergies as I suspected. She at first told me it was tired eyes from looking at the screen too much with incorrect contacts. We did all the tests and found out otherwise but it took three hours to finally get out of there with some eye drops for the allergy. They also tried to convince me to come in three or four months to get new contacts. Even though it was shown that that wasn't the problem. I am not amused.
I am thinking reading 6 books on my cell phone in the past couple of weeks may have contributed to the eye trouble, even if it wasn't because of the lenses.
I'm not usually affected by pine - my main allergy in spring is cypress which comes out next month, but this year the quantity of pollen is supposed to be record-making - coming in fourth of all recorded years. We will see if the eye drops will do the trick!
Because of the pain in my gums I haven't been able to eat properly and I have actually lost some weight I gained in the last few weeks. That's a good side to it all LOL. I made a chick pea stew yesterday and drank a smoothy for lunch today, but eating is just really tiring and slow and I left some of the stew yesterday because I was just so damn tired. Hot coffee makes everything act up so I am avoiding it - so no snack either.
How are you all doing with pollen?
By the way, I really want to find some paper dolls of boys for my English classes. Know of any? I want to practice his/her somehow so if you have any other ideas I am all ears.

I don't know of any paper dolls, but I can send you my art portfolio, and I can probably make whatever you need.
no subject
I would love to see your portfolio!! You could send it to my gmail under the same name<3<3 There are so many things I want to make, and I have no drawing talent unfortunately.

You're right - I did read that this year's allergy season is to begin earlier & be worse than usual. It's interesting that this seems to be the case worldwide!
So far I haven't been too bad thankfully despite 3 different allergens being high where I live. Mine also manifest most in the Spring. Next week I will be in my hometown though & I grew up miserably. But since I'll only be there for 2 actual days, I'm hoping it won't be long enough for the allergens to penetrate my system.

Ugh, sorry to hear the eye drops only made things worse for you - but I am glad your eyes are clearing up on their own!

I used to read books on my smartphone but it got to be hard on my eyes too. I switched to a Kindle Paperwhite with a warming backlight and that helped a lot, I'd definitely recommend something like that if you're looking for a way to read on a device that isn't too hard on the eyes. (And I hope your jaw pain improves--allergies suck! :C)
