we had to watch this for class *spoilers*


so my yr 9 english class had to watch this
and u can imagine what bits the immature 15 year old boys liked.
the bit at the start when Sera takes her shirt off
and of course
the whole make out sequence.
even my boyfriend who is usually not so immature was cheering when jacob got in josies top, and of course he was trying to cover my eyes like im some innocent child whos never seen/done this before *rolls eyes* then had the nerve after school, when we were at his place and the silverchair song came on if we could re inact that bit! sheesh boys....
but anyway just wanted to share lol

We had to watch it for English class and we are in year 10.
We didnt have to read the novel though.
All the people at my tables eyes were swelling up with tears when John died. But practically every scene he was in i was like 'i swear ive seen him before' and then i realized he is Bert Newtons son and he is in 'Stupid Stupid Man'.
Also it was hilarious in the almost sex scene with Josie and Jacob, all the guys were being immature and going "oo where did his hand go? Hes a bad person" and laughing their heads off. The yeachr got annoyed though and told them to grow up lmao.

I love the movie but hate doing essays after watching movies.
