Just Friends

Just Friends
Just Friends (2005)

IMDB rating: 6.20

Plot: When he confessed his love for his best friend during their formative high school years ago, Chris was met with a broken heart and a degrading humiliation. Only adding insult to injury was his larger than life frame which became a source of ridicule for cruel classmates. But years later and things having changed, Chris is now a hotshot record producer in Hollywood and the complete physical opposite of himself in high school. He’s also got an up and coming act by the name of Samantha James who has a psychotic crush on her producer. When a freak accident occurs on the way to Paris, Chris is forced to return home with her in tow. Little does he know that he would come face to face with the friend that he tried so desperately to forget. With the chance to woo her again, Chris will do what he can despite his client’s violent misgivings and a competitive rival suitor against him. No matter the crazy obstacles he must overcome, Chris will do whatever it takes to be more than just friends.

Guys fall for me, but am I unattainable through their eyes?
So, I think I have one of the weirdest personalities/attitudes possible for a 17 year old. Honestly, people always tell me how I always act professional/formal, I’m even like this around my friends at times. I can’t help it, and I do tend to get along better with older people than people my age.
I never seem to be able to just relax and act laid back/down to earth, these are very rare times for me!

This sort of counters my appearance, because apparently others find me "gorgeous", and people will always stare at me for that reason. Especially guys, some of which will flirt, but then my mindset is basically- oh, he’s not quite up to my standards… because often they aren’t the popular guys at my school, who are good looking, just sort of stupid. And I feel very negative vibes from the popular girls at school; therefore I avoid their circle altogether.
I don’t exactly fit in with the nerds at my school, and definitely not with the popular people either, I’ve never dated anyone, and some people seem to be intimidated by me.

My friends always go on how, I’ll be so successful, they see me as this huge business person, if I were to go to a costume party, I’d wear a suit.
It worries me sometimes though, I seem so different for my age.

For example, I met a few guys from a private school who spent a day with me, but afterwards I see them again and they are really shy and/or blush, not making eye contact.
It’s awkward for me, because I also feel as though I’m extremely boring and no guy would ever want me…
The thing is, sometimes I just don’t feel confident, and therefore tend to shut others out, they mistake this as overconfidence and unattainability, I think.
Besides, I think, he’ll approach me if he wants to, etc…

What is this an indication of? The thing is, if I do change, I will be like all those other girls, maybe just pretty/popular, and that’s it… :(
How to present myself in university? Sometimes I just feel extremely out of place.
SORRY this is so long.
Just wanted to add that I’m mostly so driven and focused on goals that I tend to neglect so many other things…

Dodgeball: A True Underdog StoryDodgeball: A True Underdog Story (2004)

IMDB rating: 6.60

Plot: Peter LaFleur is a charismatic underachiever and proprietor of a rundown gym called Average Joe’s. The facility’s ecclectic clientele of decidedly less-than-average Joes is comprised of: a self-styled pirate; a scrawny nerd who dreams of impressing an unattainable cheerleader; an obsessive aficionado of obscure sports; a dim-witted young man; and a cocky know-it-all who, of course, really knows nothing. Peter’s humble gym catches the eye of White Goodman, the power-mullet-sporting, Fu-Manchu-d, egomaniacal owner of Globo Gym, a gleaming monolith of fitness. White intends to take over Average Joe’s, and Peter’s non-existent bookkeeping is making it all too easy for him. A foreclosing bank has stationed attorney Kate Veatch inside Average Joe’s to finalize Globo’s takeover of the gym. But Peter’s boyish charms win her over and Kate joins his team of social rejects to beat the odds—and their own ineptitude—to try to save Average Joe’s. How? A showdown dodgeball competition against Globo Gym.

Can someone send me milkshakes video from the dodgeball movie?
At the end of the movie Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, White Goodman starts singing "My Milkshakes" when he is really fat. That video is so funny and I would like it if someone could send it to me.


Here you go. Milkshake as requested courtesy of youtube.com
