Guess What?!

Mickey Butt!

So I decided to get a little crafty the other day after seeing a movie with a good friend and thought of a good christmas gift/craft that I wanted to try(I saw the idea first on Pinterest)!

So here's what you'll need to make these super cute, not to mention SUPER easy Mickey (butt) ornaments.

1 box of small red ball ornaments (you can use the bigger balls but then you'll have to change the button size!)
1 black sharpie
white buttons
hot glue gun or super glue

How to do it:
Wit the black sharpie draw and color in a circle around the top, it can be as big or little as you want, I went maybe a quarter of the way down.
Something like this:

Once you've got Mickey's tummy colored in you're going to glue 2 buttons on each ornament. Be sure to put them relatively close together like they are on Mickey's pants!  I used hot glue, if you do too you'll want to clean off the strings when you're done!

Enjoy!

I went and saw The Help with Heather and Jenny a few weeks ago and decided that I wanted to read the book to see how close they actually suck to it, Jenny had mentioned some differences but I wanted to see/read for myself.

Things I liked that they changed in the movie:

• Ms Celia having Minny and the kids come live with her and Johnny at the end of the movie, I thought it was sweet and showed how different she was to the other ladies
• Them going into Leroy abusing Minny, especially the part at the end of the book when he was fired from work and locked her in the bathroom and threatened to burn the house down with her in it
• Not having Stewart breaking up/proposing to Skeeter (yes I "liked" it in the book, but that actor is too hot for me to hate in the movie =p)
• Skeeter's mom not looking as sick as she actually was in the book, because lets face it I love Allison Janney and would hated to have seen her so sick from the cancer.
• The way Johnny found out about Minny, though the way in the book was entertaining, who doesn't like the ax part, but I liked him chasing her in the yard yelling at her

That's all I can really think of now...I'm sure there's more but I'm not really sure I can think of more right now :p

Things I wish they'd put in the movie that were in the book:

• Aibileen's special story time with Mae Mobley
• Mae Mobley going the bathroom in Aibileen's bathroom
• Skeeter's style transformation towards the end of the book

That is NOT how I wanted it to end!

So I finished Mockingjay pretty quick in the hopes that it would go the way that I wanted...but it didn't, it seemed rather underwhelming, I was hoping for a huge battle and for Katniss to end up with Gale, but hey things never happen in books the way I want them to, unless it's a trashy romance novel, and that's just guaranteed that those people will be together in the end. Don't get me wrong, I like Peeta and all, but he's Mr. Perfect and as much as I like the idea of Mr. Perfect nobody will ever be like him...and I don't know, I just never rooted for his character (not that I wanted him to die or anything)

Now on to another book, not sure what next...I have 3 Psych chapters to read before Tuesdays class...and I haven't started he he he, but where are the fun in school books. Maybe I'll read a trashy romance novel or some other somewhat cheery book, it will have to be a quick read so that I can get to reading those always enjoyable school books...*sigh* I hate the end of summer
