m-t-s-thursday movie trivia... movie trivia-ing like it's 1999!!!

I really like the phrase "party like it's 1999." So today's movie trivia is all from imdb.com's top 50 movies of 1999. There are some stills where the movie needs to be identified (some with the faces blacked out for a bit of a challenge). some are questions about the movies. some are questions about the actors/actresses/characters in the movie. I even threw in a multiple choice... the rules are the same as always... 1) no cheating, 2) play fair, 3) have fun... the answers that are a different color have been answered already. 1000 points for each correct answer. 31,000 points available (if my math is correct)...

sometimes i like to party like it's 1999...

a lot of times i like to say i want to party like it's 1999... and talking to my dear friend amy, she told me i can back-blog... how fun is that? so i decided... since i really can't feel the effects of partying like it's 1999, i might as well blog like it's 1999... to think about where i was august 24, 1999... wow... i would have never dreamed i'd be sitting here right now... let's see...

i think i'll write a short entry guessing what i might have been going through... ready?

*******************************************************************************

wow... i just got back from columbia (s.c. - summer missions) about 3 weeks ago... it's weird being back... i have moved into a townhouse with a couple of friends and i'm really excited about it... my first time "on my own" in an apartment... right now we have to keep everything out of the living room, because they need to clean the carpets, so the couch is in the kitchen and we sit in the kitchen on the couch watching tv... which is actually really fun...
school just started back up and i think i've decided on a major - advertising... this summer really helped nail that into place in my head... i'm really looking forward to the school year ahead... i'm one of the vice-chairmen for the publicity committee at the bsu... i think that will be a lot of fun... we're having the committee over for dinner next week... i'm even cooking the whole thing! well, i better get going... it's almost time for stuff at the bsu!!!

********************************************************************************

i'm not sure if that's exact, but i rememeber those things going on around that time that year... i would never have dreamed that i would be sitting here today... for more information about today, check out aug 24, 2004's entry...

(how weird am i?)
