Hew folks,

I've been out of touch when it comes to blogging, so I'm going to start posting mini-blogs with bits and bobs that's going on, instead of trying (and failing numerous times) to write full length ones.

I bought a PS3

So we have every major console in our house now. I'm currently enjoying Infamous (it's awesome), Metal Gear Sold 4 (also awesome) and Dead Space (it's scuurreeee).

Celebrations

I have reached the 4 year mark on this site! WHOA. It was also my 21st on the 14th of this month I'm a big kid now.

Keeping Fit

I've been working out this past week, without fail, and I think I may be very well sticking to it. I've felt great after every workout, and the weather is fantastic, so I'm on a good buzz. I'm not going to lie, I am trying to tone up in time for Barcelona, which will be a bit of a stretch

Reviews

I'm currently reviewing the 4th season of Charmed, the 1st season of Medium, the 2nd season of True Blood and the 4th season of Xena for anyone interested. Reviews are down below.

Cinema/Blue-Ray

I've seen Drag me to Hell (*****), The Last House on the Left (***) and The Hangover (***). On DVD/Blu Ray, I've seen Push (**) , Martyrs (*****) and Arahan (***).

Later!

Happy 21st!. Our little Mark is growing up!. I had a birthday in my 9 month abscence and I wished it was 21. Lol. And congratulations on 4 years!. I missed my anniversary, but I am going to blog about it next!.

It's getting nice here, so it's time to get back into shape myself.

lol @ the title, i didnt need that song in my head again.

I still havent fgured out which game to try out, Infamous or Prototype. Very similar but i hear Infamous is better. Very belated Happy BDay and high 5's on the 4 year mark.

Nothing motivates more than swimsuit season. Do crunches, a lot o crunches. You'll be sore but it'll help . "Drag Me to Hell" didnt get nearly enough good publicity. That movie was killer, the best horror ive seen since the first "Saw". I havent seen "Martyrs" but AOTS did a segment on it and from that im intersted. I know theres torture involved but tell me, is there any sexual abuse? If so i'll pass cus thats a no go for me in movies *puke smiley*. Later .

First off congrats on your 4 years here. And enjoy your PS3, I hear it's a sweet system to own.


Good to hear that you are keeping fit. I shall be doing that soon. a punching bag is in my midst.


Martyrs, is it as insane as I have heard? I really want to see it.

Congrats on the PS3 and the 4 years! I'm going on my 2nd month... err, uh... yeah. I've been wanting to get a PS3 but other things like a car and a wedding had to take precedence. I'll get that PS3 at some point. Heck, I don't even use my Wii. I've had Punch Out for about a month and haven't even opened it yet.

Yay for PS3 I love my PS3 so much, sadly don't know how I'd cope without it! I can't wait for the next Final Fantasy game, or God of War game - they'll be awesome I tried the demo for Infamous but couldn't really get into it - not sure if it just wasn't a very good demo though; I'm playing Prototype at the moment - which I guess is a little similar to Infamous, very awesome game - I definitely recommend it! Congrats on both 4 years on the site and your 21st, hope you had a great birthday Surprised you weren't overly impressed with The Hangover - most people seemed to have loved that movie, I thought it had moments that were just hilarious Plus it had a baby in big sunglasses, super cute

Congrats on the anniversary!! and big happy 21st birthday!! Hope you did something fabulous (and drunken!) to celebrate!!

Good luck with the fitness kick, I always find its a little easier when its sunny and warm- shame they weathers not like this more often!!

Barry - I must once again state how awesome it is you're back in the fold Cheers, oh and please do, we've been around here for quite a while, eh?
Posted Jun 25, 2009 4:10 am PT
Marwash - haha, I know, it's horribly addictive! I hear they're both good, although Prototype has plenty of glitches from what I'm reading online. Cheers, and I'm all about the high fives! I hate crunches, a lot of crunches No pain, no gain, right? Drag Me to Hell was AMAZING. One of the best cinema experiences I've ever had. Me and my friend were in bits with laughter, everyone jumped at right time, people shrilled, it was brill.

And Martyrs has no sexualised violence at all, but there are some fairly disturbing moments, it's a very intense film.
Posted Jun 25, 2009 4:18 am PT
Telv - thank you! And, aw, Id love my own punching bag, talk about relief, eh? Yep, Martyrs is a film that'll probably stick with you for a while, it's a cliched saying among horror films, but in this case, I think it's true.

Prime - Hahaha, a car and wedding are infinitly more important than a PS3, good choice =P And who knows, someone may get i for ya as an awesome wedding gift I played that game, it's a bit of a larf with a few mates around.

Katherine - lol, I know, it is such a great console. How I ever settled for an Xbox was beyond me! Those 2 games were part of the reason I bought it, that and MGS4 and Blu-Rays! I had a big family bash, it was fun ^^ I did laugh quite a bit, but I didn't fall into fits of laughter like I did with Knocked Up or Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Still very good film, mind you. That was a cute bit, I'll give ya that!

Nat - heeeeey! Cheers, I had a great birthday, although I wasn't that drunk now that I look back. See, I can even look back, which just proves I wasn't that drunk =P I know, riiight, it would be amazing if the weather just stayed like this!
Posted Jun 25, 2009 4:27 am PT
Yay for buying a PS3 and bloggin more. Congrats on 4 years here! and happy belated birthday. I'm trying to work out more too and eat healthy I wanna watch Drag me to Hell too

What a nice surprise! Good to hear from you. I love your title song, Happy belated birthday, Mark! And congrats on your anniversary! *blows the party pipe* Yay for the workout! So you are all tanned and muscly now? I picked up some jogging as well, it's impossible to stay inside with that kind of weather. Over here it's on-again-off-again with the great weather, though. Currently, I can only read your True Blood reviews but those I enjoy a lot. I read a very good article about Martyrs and I would be so interested to watch it. Sadly, I just know that I won't be able to stomach it, I am such a wuss when it comes to those films... It's quite a shame actually. I always thought I might grow out of it but that didn't happen, yet.

I love my PS3 - I used to have an Xbox but I got rid of that for my PS3 - I'm a Playstation gal at heart Although, sadly there isnt much I'm playing atm...I'm waiting for the Batman Arkham Asylam game Oooh, happy 4 years on tv.com and happy 21st - hope you had an awesome day Much drinking I'd guess Hope you keep up your fitness routine, I started jogging twice a week back in March and I'm still going now - just about! Always helps when the suns out and your ipod is blaring!
