Updates: WCMI, HISHE, and The Blind Side

Ok you guys, do you remember when I told you about the web comic/story called "When Curiosity Met Insanity"? Well it just came back this month! They've got an all new post and they said they're coming up with more now that a huge load of busy-ness is off their shoulders! Yay!!

Anyways, in other news, I'm still pretty busy, and also kinda tired. Getting up at three in the morning for Black Friday shopping may have something to do with it... Oh, by the way, Happy late Thanksgiving!!! Hope your turkey day was awesome!

Let's see... What else can I share...

Oh, How It Should Have Ended is back with new updates too! Latest ones they've ended are Terminator, Transformers 2, and Twilight. Twilight ended awesomely, I might add, even though I've never seen the movie.

Ok, on Thanksgiving, I saw The Blind Side. It's about this kid who grew up in a really bad neighborhood in Tennessee, and how he surpasses everyone's expectations.

What happens is, he's being taken care of by this guy who is trying to get him and this other kid into a fancy private Christian school. Unfortunately, Big Mike has been getting straight D's and his gpa was... I think 0.6 or 0.06. Eventually he gets admitted into the school, but he's still not doing very well, and he has to bring his grades up in order to try out for sports.

One chilly evening, he's walking down the sidewalk to his shelter of the gym, when a family pulls up in their car. The mother gets out and walks up to him, asking if he has a place to stay. Big Mike nods. She tells him not to lie to her and asks the question again. He shakes his head no. She brings him to the car and lets him sleep in her living room.

Soon they go out to get his clothes (because he's not going to leave) and he tells her that he hates the name Big Mike. From there on out, he's Michael.

With her help, and that of a tutor and all his teachers (except his English teacher), Michael brings his grades up enough to play football. At first, he's not all that great, though he shows promise, and S.J., the mom's son, coaches him along.

I'm not going to spoil the end for you, but it is a heartwarming tear-jerker of a movie and I'll definitely see it again sometime.

Til next week,

Star Wars

Hey guys,

Ya gotta see this dude!

His name's Corey Vidal and he goes by ApprenticeA in YouTube.

Just look up ApprenticeA, click on his page, check out his top vids, and look for one titled "Star Wars (John Williams Is The Man)" The thumbnail is of a four-way split screen.

I'd have given you the link myself, but it's not working.

"Nobody cares if you upset a droid,
That's because droids don't tear
Your arms out of sockets..."

That's not the full lyrics, but it's pretty true, tis easier to let the Wookie win. XD

Later!

*Sigh*

Ok, so the daily thing isn't working out so well. I'm not giving up on you guys though, I adamantly refuse to stop writing. ...I love it too much. I just don't usually have the time... Instead of becoming like my friends who write maybe once a year though, I'm just going to find out what day I'm least busy and write then. Right now, it's the weekends, so I'll probably be writing once a week. But I'm writing it on my calendar so I don't forget!!
In the meantime though, I thought I'd let you know what's going on.

The Phantom of the Opera... I promised I'd write about the book, movie, and give a clip somehow of a friend of mine and I acting out part of it.
Problems: Even though I read the book and saw the movie, my friend hasn't visited in awhile. I haven't forgotten about it, but you probably won't get to hear about it (and our fascinating musical stylings) until summertime. I'm sorry, but when we last tried, we got costumes on and everything, but then a tragedy had to be averted and then we had to take care of other stuff, so that's why you didn't hear us four months ago. Also, we have yet to find a Phantom mask to fit me.

In other news: I just finished another book and saw G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra last night, so I'm eager to share that with you guys as well as what I told you about in my previous entry. I can't right now because I'm in the middle of cleaning up a huge mess, but it'll be taken care of.

Until later,

It's.... ALIVE!!! ...again.

Hey guys,

Sorry for the major lag time between posts, turns out I'm really bad at trying to make weekly habits. Like blog posting. So... In spite of my hectic schedule, I'm going to try to write daily again.

Let's see...

A short list of movies I've seen recently includes... Gremlins, Ice Age 3, 17 Again, and Bob the Butler.

Books I've read... Twilight, New Moon, Star Wars: Heir to the Empire, The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Watership Down. Still can't say I'm a fan of Stephenie Meyer's work, though.

Music... Well, let's just say that I never really run out of music.

Interesting sites... I've found a couple of those too.

So yep, that's what you can expect coming up soon. In the meantime, just rest assured knowing that I haven't forgotten about you and am coming back.

Til Tomorrow!
