PIRATES of the CARIBBIAN ~AT WORLD'S END~

I went to see the movie, PIRATES of the CARIBBIAN ~AT WORLD'S END~ the night before yesterday and today I found this picture which three main characters are in.
I think all of them look better in the movie.
When I see this picture,
I could misunderstand them as just really cool people but actually huge number of audiences have lost their heart to them after watching this series of movie.
they act pireates completely!!
As of my type, I love Johnny Depp. ha ha !

Aim at TOEIC exam in this month.
I'm going to take the TOEIC exam on 24th of this month and only 2 weeks left.
Nowadays I use a textbook of a sample exam to study.
Actually I don't spare long time to prepare,
but I'm trying to study everyday even on the short time and
at least, I want to finish reviewing all over the book.
Although this book is thin, it has the excellent explanations for each question.
So I should use it as effective as possible.

Sorry guys!!

I'm sorry that I left your comments unchecked for more than a month.
Let me excuse.
I changed the setting of this blog without understanding well and
after that, your comments were hided away from the top page.
That's why I didn't answer your comments.
Now I changed the setting as it was used to be and
probably I'll check your comments soon form now on.
Forgive me please---->.<
