Recap :: Weekend No. 9

Ah the last weekend of reading week, and it was glorious. I did a lot of cleaning, watched a movie and the Oscars. But what else is new there? That seems to be the trend of all my weekends.

Since this morning everyone will be discussing the Oscars [for the most part], I figured I’d throw my two cents in. I’m not going to comment on any of the fashion because I didn’t watch the red carpet portion [although Jennifer Garner’s dress was fabulous], but this year I found myself loving majority of the speeches.

I do think that the highlight for me was Matthew McConaughey’s speech. I’ve never been a major fan of him when he was in his rom-com days, but I’ve seen him in his new show True Detective, and I can’t wait to see Dallas Buyer’s Club. His speech was just the most heartwarming and inspiring ever. Jared Leto’s speech was definitely a great way to start the night off as well, as he took home best supporting actor.

Although, all the Leo memes are killing me right now. I think that this Buzzfeed article sums it up quite nicely. You really do have to ask yourself, why hasn’t he won an Oscar yet?

Did you watch any of the Oscars? I personally loved Ellen as the host, clever and very funny!
