Ugh, this whole "graduating" thing is just not going very well for me. I didn't get into UCF because I only have 6 credit hours of Spanish ( I need 8,). I also need one more math. Now, the math I can take care of at Brevard Community College, but I really don't know if I've retained enough Spanish to enroll in a level 3 course. I may end up borrowing my cousins copy of Rosetta Stone Spanish, giving myself a crash-course refresher and then just trying to get lucky in Sp. 3.

On a brighter note, I finally got myself a real life job. I'll be working for Bright House Networks (the cable company here) as an I/T tech. 401K, paid vacations and sick days, free cable/internet and INSURANCE. I haven't had health insurance since I worked at IBM, so this is very much a relief.

I'm currently really into Kaki King (real name Katherine King). She was the first ever female on Rolling Stones' "Guitar gods" list.

Check out this YouTube video .

I haven't been on here much, basically because at this time nothing is happening. I'm in sort of an awkward transitional stage...I'm just working (as a cook) until I can (hopefully) return to school in January. The weather was really nice for me the past 3-4 days, but it was chilly for the locals. Unfortunately, a heat wave is in the forecast.

As far as TV goes, I'm watching Flash Forward, House, Lie to Me, Shark Tank (I LOVE this show), The Middle, Modern Family and, of course, The Office. I've never followed this much TV in one season, ever. I watch mostly on HULU which makes it easy to keep track of them all because I can view whenever I want.

I can't wait for Psych to return.

My current music o' choice is Bon Iver (a "corruption" of Bon Hiver or "good winter").

Check out the song Flume from the album For Emma, Forever Ago.

"Ahh, my little Cory. With your get-smart-quick schemes. No, my friend, for me the good ship S. S... S... A. T. has sailed." -Eric Matthews, Boy Meets World

Things are settling down here in Florida. I can only say so much about my sudden locale change, but I'm working right now and looking to attend UCF in the spring to finally finish school.

I learned to sail and I try to go out on the sunfish as much as possible. I live on the Banana River , part of the Indian River Lagoon , and I see dolphins swim through everyday. Unfortunately, dolphins still make me a little nervous (unless I'm on a big boat) and I try to avoid them as much as possible when I sail. I'm working on it, but for now when I see one (or more, they usually travel together) breach, I steer the opposite direction.

(Fun fact: 1/3 of the manatees native to the U.S. are in the Indian River Lagoon.)

The newest addition to my music library is Diane Birch.

She reminds me a bit of (a modernized) Carole King. Check her out on the Craig Ferguson Show . Then if you like her, swing over to Amazon and download her debut album, Bible Belt , for only $5.00!

Blake Soper (also credited as Blake Sennett)Played the role of Joey the Rat on Boy Meets World to perfection. For such a talented actor it's a shame he wasnt cast in more roles even outside of BMW. I'm sure he's not too concerned ever. He...

These days, any one who has heard of Kelly Packard knows her from one of two things: Ripleys: Believe It Or Not and the Tae Bo videos. A slight few who were young teens in the mid-90's remember her as Tiffany from the semi-hit tv teen sitcom,...

I, along with probably everyone else in the world, know Danielle almost soley from her role as Topanga. Boy Meets World. On BMW, she was excellent. She grew with her character and changed her style smoothly, accordingly, and most of all...

First theres the character she played. Angela was brought into boy meets world to give Shawn a counterpart, they could not have created a worse character to fulfill this goal. Whiny, annoying and very often a downer she brought out the worst in...

Mattevt must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could Mattevt possibly have for not rating a single film?
