Three Hunters

I heard this news last night on tumblr and I am still not over it, omg.

...I'm also pleased to announce that Lee Pace will be playing the Elven King Thranduil. Casting these Tolkien stories is very difficult, especially the Elven characters, and Lee has always been our first choice for Thranduil. He's going to be great. We loved his performance in a movie called "The Fall" a few years ago, and have been hoping to work with him since. When we were first discussing who would be right for Thranduil, Lee came into mind almost immediately.

PERFECT CASTING IS PERFECT!

They mentioned "The Fall", which I loved! LEE PACE AS THRANDUIL. AS IN LEGOLAS' DAD! LEE PACE IS ORLANDO BLOOM'S DAD. Sorry, but I can't not capslock, I am so happy!

Writer's Block: School days

Do you think kids should learn about sex in school, and why?


Definitely, these kids are exposed to sex at younger and younger ages, but the sources are not so reliable and don't give them the facts. Parents should also be responsible, but I feel like a lot would rather live in la-la land and pretend their children are innocent little cherubs for as long as possible. Other parents, like mine, are from different cultures and talking about sex with children is really uncomfortable for them. I thinks it's a good idea for responsible adult authority figures like teachers teach the all the facts and then if the kids have questions they can ask the teacher or their parents.

Not dead!

I am not dead. Hello, everyone!

I've been avoiding LJ, well not really, I just lacked motivation to post here. But i have been lurking in comms. Tumblr is just more instant-satisfaction-y...and my paid account ran out and I hate ads. But I will make an effort to be around more.

How are you guys? Have I missed anything huge? I'll have to wait till later until to check my friends list...
