Paging Dr. Sexy

So last week I was at a wedding, when I noticed this guy sitting on the side of the groom. He looked exactly like Dr. Sexy (except with a bit shorter hair)!

Now who is Dr. Sexy? Well he is a character from Supernatural. The episode from season five, and is called “Changing Channels”. In this episode Dean and Sam find themselves pulled into TV shows that parody CSI, Grey’s Anatomy, Three’s Company, Knight Rider, etc. The first show they find themselves pulled into was Dr. Sexy, M.D. A show that Dean is a major fan of.

But who was the guy I saw at the wedding? He turned out to be the boyfriend of the daughter of the groom, and a chef instead of a doctor. I tried to get a picture of him, but no luck.

But still, I was able to see Dr. Sexy!

A True Princess

Day 1) Your Favorite Disney Princess

So my favorite princess may be different from what you all were expecting. Forget Aurora, Belle, Cinderella, Elsa, Ana, Merida, etc. This is my favorite Disney princess

Princess Leia

Now before you say anything she is a Disney princess. Disney bought Star Wars so she is a princess!

She is the most AWESOME character and princess ever!!!! She heads a rebellion, willing to sacrifice herself for her friends, country, and beliefs. Even when her home planet is threatened, she still won’t reveal the secrets and allow their destruction. She under goes countless torture, but is able to power through it all.

When Han and Luke come to save her, she turns it around and saves herself. She takes a gun and takes out those troopers herself. Because:

Even after all that she powers through the trauma and leads her people in the next two films. Never afraid to go down there and take care of things herself. She’s s awesome.

She is so awesome! I remember wanting to be her as a kid. I just thought she was the perfect female; strong, powerful, able to hold her own, but at the same time willing to ask and accept help from others. 🙂 I always tried to be just like her, and guess what, I am! Everything it says here is exactly me!

To see who you are go here.

 

So, funny story that I thought I would include here. Now I love Star Wars a whole lot!

I mean this is me:

True story!

 

This is my future, I’m telling ya.

So I never been one of those girls who plans out her wedding. I was always like, why bother? It’s not going to happen anytime soon.

So I decided that I was going to have a Star Wars themed wedding. My dad will dress up like Darth Vader, I can walk down the asile to the Imperial March, etc. And my groom will dress up like Han Solo

Because who doesn’t want to marry this handsome, redeemed bad boy, space-cowboy?

For my dress I could wear something like she does at the end of episode IV or give it my own flair like this:

Because, honestly, who doesn’t want to be Princess Leia?

We’re Buying This Dress: Runaway Bride (1999)

Favorite Moment # 8

Runaway Bride (1999)

So many  of you might  find the moment that I choose in this as strange, as there are other more standard romantic scenes, but this one is my favorite.

Ike Graham, (Richard Gere), has written on article on Maggie Carpenter, (Julia Roberts), a “maneater” who has jilted grooms at the altar 6-7 times for the sheer fun of it.

Unfortunately, he got his facts wrong and is out of a job. To redeem his name, he has gone to her hometown to find out the facts; hoping that Maggie will run on fiancé #4.

At first he dislikes Maggie as he is a divorced, bitter, disillusioned about love, and an “unromantic” guy. (Sounds like him and Robert Phillips would be pals). But over time, he starts to develop feelings for her.

Will Maggie continue to run? Or will she finally walk down the aisle?

My favorite romantic moment comes about halfway through the film. Maggie decides that since Ike is going to be following her around anyways asking all kinds of questions, she might as well get some money out of it. She charges him to interview her which Ike agrees to. Maggie is thrilled as it gives her the chance to buy the dress she really wants, but was out of her budget as it is $1000.

Yay!!!

However when she gets there, the dress shop owner, Mrs. Whittenmeyer, doesn’t want to sell it.

“Maggie Carpenter: I’ve changed my mind 
Mrs. Whittenmeyer: This [dress] is a thousand dollars.
Maggie Carpenter: And I have a thousand dollars. 
Mrs. Whittenmeyer: The other one is only three hundred, dear.
Maggie Carpenter: Um…is that dress for sale?  
Mrs. Whittenmeyer: It’s just a lot of money to spend on one of your dresses, Maggie. After all, you only wear them for about ten minutes or so.“

Maggie s heartbroken, realizing that no one believes that she will ever go through with a wedding.

But here’s where the romantic part comes in. Ike becomes furious at Mrs. Whittenmeyer being so cruel:

Ike is not having Maggie be treated this way. He takes the situation into his own hands.

“Ike Graham: [Mrs. Whittenmeyer refuses to sell a wedding gown to Maggie] You sell wedding dresses, right? 
Mrs. Whittenmeyer: Yes, I’ve been selling wedding gowns for thirty-five years. 
Ike Graham: Wonderful! Because we are here to buy one! But not just any one [points to a gown in the window]  She wants “that” one! 
Mrs. Whittenmeyer: It’s a thousand dollars! 
Ike Graham: Listen, Aunt Bea! Conversation has never worked for me, let’s try ‘visual.’  [jumps into the window and pulls the mannequin down, knocking its wig off] We’re buying the dress! And anything else she wants!” 

As there are no pictures or videos of this scene, that I adore so much, I had to take screenshots of the scene and make my own gif. I’m a little rusty, so I apologize for its crudity.

The reason I love this part is not only the take charge attitude Ike has, but this is where I believe Ike starts to really care for Maggie. He realizes how harsh his words were, and how his article is affecting her. He also starts to see that there is more to her than a “maneater”.

So romantic
