love's strange, so real in the dark

30 Day Breakfast Club Challenge. Day Five. What's your favourite scene?


  My favourite scene would be when Bender is acting out the other's home life and then end's up acting out his own. He pretty much opens up to them and is vulnerable and they don't believe he's telling the truth. So, understandably, he gets angry and storms/climbs outta there and looks fairly upset at himself for opening up and at the others for not taking his word. Brilliant.




Close second is the 'chase' scene around the school. Awesome.

giving me everything inside and out

30 Day Breakfast Club Challenge. Day Four. Recast the movie with your favourite actors. Who would play what?

 NOTE: I do not actually want there to be a remake of The Breakfast Club. This is just for fun using people who look somewhat similar (in modern standards) and have some level acting skill. Also I think most are a little older than the 'highschool' age they are portraying but whatevs.

tell me your troubles and doubts

30 Day Breakfast Club Challenge. Day Three. Which character do you relate to most?

I think it's a mix up between Bender and Alison. Alison is pretty quiet and gets neglected while Bender has that whole tough-guy image and anger stuff.





Though the whole thing with the parents I pretty much relate to none of them haha.

won't you come see about me?

30 Day Breakfast Club Challenge. Day One. When did you first see the Breakfast Club?

Grade 11. In CALM class with Tawnya. Best external things going on were the teacher repeatedly telling us to ignore the swearing every single time. And making "ooooh" sounds. And Tawnya going "I see what you did there" and "Did you see that? Did. You. SEE. That?" Good times.

Walk [Foo Fighters]

A million miles away
Your signal in the distance
To whom it may concern
I think I lost my way
Getting good at starting over
Every time that I return

I'm learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
I'm learning to talk again
Can't you see I've waited long enough?
Where do I begin?

Do you remember the days
We built these paper mountains
And sat and watched them burn?
I think I found my place
Can't you feel it growing stronger?
Little conquerors

I'm learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
I'm learning to talk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?

Now
For the very first time
Don't you pay no mind?
Set me free again
You keep alive a moment at a time
But still inside a whisper to a liar
To sacrifice but knowing to survive
The first decline another state of mind
I'm on my knees, I'm praying for a sign
Forever, whenever
I never wanna die
I never wanna die
I never wanna die
I'm on my knees
I never wanna die
I'm dancing on my grave
I'm running through the fire
Forever, whatever
I never wanna die
I never wanna leave
I'll never say goodbye
Forever, whatever
Forever, whatever

I'm learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
I'm learning to talk again
Can't you see I've waited long enough?
Where do I begin?

I'm learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
I'm learning to talk again
Can't you see I've waited long enough?
