Relaxation... Mimi-style

There's nothing really special about me so my ways of chilling out and relaxation is pretty much the same as everybody else's. I usually get a massage, have my rest day coffee just to unwind, watch a movie and meditate(?!). I realized since I like getting massages and going to places just to relax, I will start dedicating my blog entries to relaxation... hehe, since writing is also one way for me to remove the stress.
Anyway, this week is Memorial week so my rest day is split-off, Monday-Thursday. Monday, I just slept... for me, sleeping is not actually relaxing, it's a requirement for the day ahead plus sometimes you just end up sleeping even if you're super stressed out and restless because it is your body's requirement.. amf. I woke up and my sister and I watched The Roommate.

Initially, I was only interested in watching that movie because of Leighton Meester and because it's a thriller movie. Being an avid fan of Gossip Girl and horror movies, I felt that this movie is just the perfect mix. Hahahaha. It's the story of a girl who has gone obsessed with her roommate and end up eliminating those whom she feels like has a negative effect on her roommate. It's not a very good movie, good thing, they decided to put beautiful people in the cast, even the extras and the old people there look good and the chemistry of each and every cast member was not compromised so kudos for the casting boo for the storyline and for killing the kitten. Perfect movie if you are sick and tired of watching movies that you have seen at least 5 times in your life. (I really love watching zombie movies but I've seen dawn of the dead more than 10 times already, land of the dead and  shaun of the dead more than 5 times and other zombie movies at least 3 times... I need a break from those even if it's a terrible movie that I have to watch).
It's not that bad but it's really not good either. Hahahaha. The only thing that I like about it is the fact that none of the major characters died except for the crazy person. Ha! Spoiler alert! Spoiler alert! (and it's too late.... hahahaha) and Rebecca's convertible, (aww, so jealous!). The things that I didn't like about the movie is the lack of details, I mean ok, Emily died when Sara was nine but from what and what's really in Rebecca's past that drove her crazy, just the fact that she's a rich girl without friends so she just ends up trying to make one and if she can't, she does crazy things? Whatever. Meester is really a good actress although her character is not so far from Blair Waldorf in Gossip Girl, she's spoiled and rich and manipulative only less crazy and more independent. I know she's a natural blonde but I really prefer having her as a brunette.
