Man, sorry I haven't updated in a while (as if anyone really cared). I've actually been on the busy side these couple of weeks because a lot of deadlines for things I needed to turn in were all on Halloween. Go figure! Speaking of that, Happy belated Halloween! Man, I love this holiday. I think it is because I have such fond memories of dressing up and going trick-or-treating with the parents. And I'm still a little kid inside, so of course I found the time to get a costume together. I was Peter Pan! it was awesome. Did any of you all dress up?
Anyway, for everyone living here in the good ol' U.S. of A, isn't it crazy to think that in less than a week, we will find out who our next president will be? That's just nuts! I mean, this particular election has gotten so much media attention; whether that's a good or bad thing, I'm not completely sure. I guess it's positive since it's encouraging more (specifically younger people) to exercise their right to vote. I personally am more in favor of Obama. What do you guys think of the presidential election?
PieLove here! There's been a couple of changes around here, and I thought I'd blog about it.
I was aware, from a week ago, that a new TV.com layout was on it's way, and at first, I really thought I would not mind. But the minute I logged on here around Wednesday, I was bombarded with an unfamiliar and unwelcoming screen before me. I honestly do not really like this new layout! It's too bright, and reminds me of those irritating MySpace-type sites, which I despise. I mean, I miss the nice, dark blue layout of the past! But maybe I'm ranting. I mean, in a day or two, I'll probably get over it. But now I just feel like expressing my thoughts on this situation. How do you all feel about this? Like the new look? Don't like it? Don't care?
Anyways, I really feel like watching that new comedy "Hamlet 2". It sounds hilarious! Gotta love Steve Coogan. Haven't heard of it? Look it up!
PieLove out!
Hello again, TV.com users! Bet you all didn't expect me to update so soon, huh? Well, here I am! Anyways...
School started a while ago. Man, I did not anticipate so much work this year! So many assignments, and papers to complete, and things to read...like, 2 hours a night just on reading! I missed the season premiere of "America's Next Top Model" because of it! No big deal though; I'll catch it next week. Despite everything, I am having a good year so far.
So, I recently decided to check out what all the fuss was about and read the book Twilight. I found it highly annoying in various ways. First of all, it dragged on waaaaay too long. There were long passages just on the main character (Bella) just getting ready for bed (putting on pajamas, brushing her teeth and hair, and checking her e-mail). YAWN! The book relies too much on unnecessarily intricate sentences and adjectives. The only thing carrying the characters along is the fact that they have magical, other-worldly qualities. Other than that, they are generally uninteresting and unappealing. The ending was pretty decent for a while when I finally got to it, and then BAM! It was over. I will not give it away, just in case anyone hasn't read it yet. In conclusion, I give the book 2/5 overall. I don't particularly recommend it, unless you like really long, slightly irritating passages about attractive vampires that get old quickly.
A far more interesting thing I did recently was go to Disneyland with a few friends. I had the best time! Never realized there were so many things to do at 'the happiest place on earth'! There are 47 rides in total, and I only hit, like, 10! I went on the spinning tea cups ride for the 1st time, and got dizzy for about half an hour! It was horrible. I do not recommend going on it on a full stomach!
I do like the whimsical nature of it all, though.
That's it for now! I'll blog later, whenever I see fit.
