Going to the Movies!
I'm sitting in a coffee shop with Stephanie and May, discussing what to do. It's a Saturday night and that means fun, because we can stay out late!
Great minds think alike because just as I'm about to suggest going to the movies, May says:
May: Hey, I know! How about we go and watch a movie? I know that there are a whole lot of new films now showing.
Riana: I was just about to say the same thing. I really want to go see the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie! It came out on Wednesday… have you seen the previews?
Stephanie: Yeah! It looks pretty exciting, and I really like Orlando Bloom… uh, not as much as my friend though! Haha, she's fallen head over heels for him since she first saw him in Lord of the Rings…
