Teehee… I have a new toy. It arrived yesterday, and it is awesome. I haven't had a whole lot of time to play with it yet, but I've already both put it to good use in meetings and installed the streaming Netflix app for ease of watching Buffy on the go (which is obvs very important), and ordered one of these to hold it (on the last day for the

You're such a tech girl! Look at you :D I think Nick really wanted me to ask for an iPad for my birthday, but I just think I'm too cheap. I'm getting my new iPhone soon...

I wish I was more of a film buff. I want to do this meme, but it looks HARD!

Teehee.. if work hadn't bought one for me, it definitely would have been on my birthday wishlist. :D And yay for new phone! You're going to love it.. the camera on it just blows me away.

But psh, I say! It's an easy-peasy meme. You know how terrible I am with keeping up with memes, and yet I'm nearing the finish line already. I bet you'll find out you're more of a movie buff than you realized. :D

Haha, the iPad is so nerdy. I love it! It's super awesome that you can watch Buffy on the go. :D

I love what you wrote about Danny Boyle. He's really wonderful. Sunshine is my favorite and what I consider his best. It's one of the best science fiction films probably ever (and definitely the most underrated). You're definitely right in that Danny Boyle's films are Danny Boyle Films. The only one I straight-up dislike is Millions.

Regarding ideas for Day 29, I tried to top that, too, but I couldn't think of a darn thing. :(

It is the absolute in nerdy. I love it too. XD

So if I may, what about Millions didn't you like? That was one that I kind of thought I wouldn't enjoy, but really wound up loving.

I only saw it once in 2007, but I remember disliking the characters (even the kids, lol), and I found it way too bizarre and not what I was expecting (the thing with the mother, I think it was?). When it comes to Danny Boyle, I know to anticipate bizarreness, but Millions still put me off.

so you think the iPad is worth the hype then? haha, my iPod has been broken for a while, and I've been too lazy to have it checked out even though I miss it like crazy!

for the movie meme, hmm maybe tomorrow you could post screencaps from your favorite movie of all time and see if anyone can guess it before the big reveal on Day 30?

[marshmallow]

Well, I definitely think so. It really serves an all together different function, though.. I'm not sure you'd want to use it to replace your iPod, 'cause it definitely doesn't fit quite so easily in one's pocket. ;)

Oooh, I like that idea! Although I might just want to do a picspam day of, now that you mention it. (My first ever picspam! Eep!)

[howveryasif]

yay picspam!! :D :D :D :D

[marshmallow]

Teehee.. I wish I had a Kindle too.. I think I have a gadget problem!! :D

I'm really enjoying it so far, though I'm still learning the ropes. (It's super intuitive, but I'm still figuring out what I can do and so forth, and how to use it to the best of it's abilities.)

[suzyx]

Ooooh, jealous of your ipad! :D

Nordic walking looks fun!

I love Danny Boyle's films - Sunshine is effing gorgeous. And Slumdog Millionaire had such an emotional punch to it. Stealing this meme.

[marshmallow]

It was fun! Worth trying if your gym has anything like it. I get so bored doing gym stuff, but being out and about and still getting a structured workout was awesome.

Sunshine is gorgeous! And that soundtrack is killer. (Though I wish other movies would quit stealing it.. :/) Yay for meme stealage though!! I'll be interested to see your responses!
