It was embarrassing because I said some things in there that I would not want anyone to hear. Everyone was laughing. I pretended that it didn't bother me, but it did.

^ Yeah, I'd tried to admit I didn't care too. Thank god you didn't mention his name though, lol. Well, if it didn't mention his name I think I'd actually not be as embarassed.

Well, it was what I said in the note that was so embarrassing. I probably never have written that in a note, but I can't take that back now.

Did you all like Farmer Ted or did you think he was annoying?

Marki · 05-21-2007, 10:40 PM

To me he was annoying at the bgining at the dance but as the movie went on i think it made for a more funny movie with him with caroline and the way he speaks to jake. But yeah he did annoy me alot! How on earth someone can have that much confidence to not be scared ot be turned down i do not know.

**Melis** · 05-21-2007, 10:42 PM

I agree that he was annoying in the beginning, but he grew on me.

I think his confidence was just a front. He was probably shaking on the inside.

Marki · 05-21-2007, 10:47 PM

yeah true because hes afraid of jake later int he movie and afraid of driving and crashing. I think his friends bryce and i cant remeber waht the other oens called were funny their like friendship bickering when trying ot get the camera and nerdish ways about things really made the whole ted stoyline more intrsting to me.

**Melis** · 05-23-2007, 12:12 PM

That's true. You kind of get to see what it's like for the geek.

I love this movie. I have ever since I can remember. It's funny because my parents actually forgot my 16th birthday. My mom had to call in the middle of the day and tell me happy birthday because she had completely forgotten. But then my birthday and my little sister's birthday are between christmas and thanksgiving so it's always hectic. I can't blame them for forgetting.

When I was younger, I used to think that Farmer Ted was just weird. But then as I got older I began to crush on him. I thought he was so cute. I guess he's what started my desire for geeky guys.

**Melis** · 05-25-2007, 09:11 PM

Aww. I'd be heartbroken if my family forgot my birthday.

I love dorky guys, too.

Way cool!

Marki · 06-01-2007, 05:15 PM

I don't like ginny all she cares about is herself. I don't see why she asked sam "what's the deal?" in her room when she really didnt want to hear it anyway ..i think anything that sam would of answered she would said the "i don't have time for this". when she did that i was like thats mean its her birthday!

**Melis** · 06-02-2007, 04:12 AM

Yeah, she was pretty clueless.
