I went and saw "How to Train Your Dragon" with Brandon and a few of his friend's Friday. I wanted to see the movie since I first saw trailers for it but I wasn't expecting such a great film in the least. I have to say, if you don't get a chance to see it in the theatre, do try and rent it because it's a wonderful film. Where I was expecting over ( Read more... )

So it’s the end of the year officially and I should probably write something epic to cap it all off. So many things happened in 2009 that it will be hard to report on each one but I’ll give it shot…

I was checking out my tags a while ago and felt rather bad that the tags that have huge uses were things like “cosplay” & “conventions.” Anime, on the other hand, has only one hit. “What sort of geek am I?” I asked myself. I also have nothing for video games. My journal is full of fail! >.Alright, so the last couple days I started to compile a ( Read more... )

I’m halfway through Stephen King’s “It,” which I started several months ago. That’s good for me because it’s hard for me to find dedicated reading time. I also had my ( Read more... )

Dad & I went to see Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince last night. He wanted to go more than me but I let him drag me along. I was reticent simply because I had such apprehensions from the last one. That last film (and the last novel), I’m sorry to say, kicked the excitement for the series out of me. I really enjoyed the books but the rushed ( Read more... )

I'm pretty much where I expected to be right now, having spent the entirety of this week sewing on stuff. I'm halfway done with Fresca at this point; the pants are done and the jacket minus the sleeves are finished. I got actually hyper at 1am when I called it quits for the night and woke up Tori in the middle of her catnap (as she was working on ( Read more... )

Driving to work each morning allows me at least thirty to forty minutes of deep thoughts, at least one benefit of a rather dull commute. I don’t think I get so philosophical during my drive home because I’m usually anticipating dinner or planning out what I will do with my evening upon the return. However the morning’s thoughts are always deep ( Read more... )
