Just when I think I'm up to date with my podcasts, five new episodes of various ones pop up. Thanks. Who told podcasts that the length for an episode must be an hour or more? I only have two hours a day whilst traveling to listen to stuff! *gripes some more*
Anycakes, Skinwalkers? So good. I found it amusing that two people from Shooter are in it, but I like Koteas and Mitra isn't that annoying. They twisted the legend around a bit, and from what I see on IMDB everyone hates the movie. It could've been worse in explaining the lore (The Covenant, anyone?) and the acting was good enough, considering. I kept comparing the boy to Liam James, but he was okay. They used that same stretch of road that Supernatural used two or three times though. Good old Canada.
Standing Still was also good, although it felt hollow. I guess I expected a bit more, although in what respects I have no idea. Also sorta stumpy in the ending was The Bourne Ultimatum. The flashbacks were done well. They're getting better with that anti-aging stuff. if you didn't see the first two Bourne movies (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
yffy, I'm looking at you), you're going to be a bit confused with all the talk.
Blonde was so boring. Eric Bogosian couldn't even save it and I barely paid attention by the second disc. Jensen's kimono scene was funny, but if you've seen one animated icon of it, you've seen the entire thing. I'm not a huge Monroe fan, but all these fictional accounts of her life are kinda annoying.
I'm in the middle of watching Tadpole and She's All That, but Sarah Michelle Gellar just popped up in She's All That, so I stopped it and I'll watch the last few chapters tonight. And dude, please thank whoever introduced Dulé Hill to weights. I'm not a muscle lover, but the man was a beanpole in that movie. Tadpole is interesting to say the least but I'm in love with half the cast so I'm probably biased.
If anything comes from Blockbuster before I finish what's taped on the DVR (I still have Alpha Dog to watch too, geesh!) I'll probably watch that. Hey, it's either a Alan Rickman movie or The Talented Mr. Ripley coming. Win all around.
This is getting long, but last night I saw "Man Band" and the "Singing Bee" and then the late night movie on NY 55/10 was On The Line, which is the one DVD of mine that has ceased to work at all. Oh, *NSYNC night it was. On the train I saw the ads for Justin's concert thing too, but I made sure to stand underneath it.
Oh dude, last night's Big Brother. JESSICA IS SO GULLIBLE OMG. Mom and I were laughing so hard. And then I told mom what that box Jameka had been praying on recently was (the Jack Shack), and we laughed even more.
Coldstone ice cream is no huge deal. Fun, but I like my ice cream cheap and with a variety of flavors. I'm not falling for that Starbucks mentality again. I do want to try Pinkberry though, because James Roday loves it and who am I to ignore Roday's style? And dude, you can have Cap'n Crunch, pineapples and bananas for a topping on Green Tea pinkberry. It's like... an official Psych dessert or something.

P.S. If you haven't read the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series yet, dooo it. Hysterical. I'm only the second book in, but lololol

Wasn't it you who spoke the words?
Jun. 19th, 2007 02:54 amToday was one of those days that started out disappointing and turned pretty good. Haha, as splits_thesky knows I had planned on going downtown today. I actually did wake up at 7:45am, but I did one of my "ah, it's a free concert and going alone isn't really that fun and hey this dream kicks reality's ass" moments and went back to sleep. I woke up at 1:13pm.
I wanted to watch the first two Bourne movies, but with the constant interruption in my house it took three hours to just watch one. So I washed my hair (the whole process from wash to done is five hours) and then just watched TV with my mom. She couldn't find the Yankees game, and while I understood her anger at not being able to watch it, this meant I wasn't bored to tears and could stay in the living room longer. But around 11pm I did get bored and found two (TWO!!) Mac Life magazines my dad had not shown me. So I read those cover to cover and realized that I am a true techno-geek. (Really, their article about the Apple TV of the future gave me goosebumps-- and not just because the "TV" was showing The Departed.)
So anyway, when I'm alone to my thoughts on days like this without a earworm (I tried washing some Toby Keith, Jason Mraz and Amy Winehouse in, none stuck) I think A LOT. Sometimes it gets me emotional, sometimes it gets me angry and sometimes I just come to a revelation. Today was all three.
And this is the revelation. I'm 21. (OMG NO WAI!) But seriously, instead of amassing years in stores like GameStop or Barnes N Nobles like I was aiming for, I think I should start focusing on internships. I'm one of those people who want to work in a cubicle, with my own computer, own desk, own phone. I want to wear business attire and look grown up for once in my life with some semblance of professionalism. Let's forget the fact that I own no business attire for the moment.
Tomorrow I'm heading to my school (I have the urge to call it uni or university but damnit, CUNY isn't a university) to figure out why there's a stop on my account so I can register for fall classes and then stopping by the nail salon to hopefully see that hot guy and then going job hunting for serious. My nephew is almost done with school and the house is crowded as it is, they don't need my useless face around. I'm better off at work being productive.
Any ideas on places to intern in the journalism or film production fields?
Enough about me. What post of mine would be complete without randomness?
1. This Jacket video is amazing. Even if you don't watch Lost, the editing is amazing.
2. What the frak, there's some WEIRD *NSYNC fic out there. The ones I'm trying to find are pretty tame in comparison. OH MY POOR EYES. You know, it's funny. As much as I adored him, Lance was the only one I could read slash about back then. But not with Joey. That would be awkward. And did you know that my dad still thinks I don't care for the boys anymore. Because my fangirling over Joey on DWTS wasn't obvious? Dane Cook Zach Braff, Matthew Broderick... maybe. I will never stop loving *NSYNC (haha win, that put TWO *NSYNC songs in my head.)
3. AWW Ben and Matt.

P.S. Rec me some music! I obviously need some new tunes.

So I saw a video today that showed me pretty much tells me all I needed to know about the state of music today. Yeah, I won't even bother turning on the radio today. I haven't listened to the radio in, oh many two months. I was hoping I was missing out on some really good stuff but apparently it's all still FOB, PATD (seriously, is that ! needed in the acronym? I say nay!) payola and urban crap. Fare thee well Z100, you were good in the 90s. Jack FM and that channel that gets re-invented every five seconds while I mourn when it used to play Loveline eternally aren't even worth it anymore.
Anyway, I realized today when I passed the Armory that I never posted all the pretty pictures of my school and whatever was filming at the Armory (which wasn't Bourne Identity anyway, but I Am Legend). Plus, a few fangirl things I noticed about my most hated hallway in school and my favorite actor. But that's all tomorrow :-p (How's that for tease?)
Dancing with the Stars is premiering now and there's an episode of How I Met Your Mother too. Dilemma much? I'll just watch HIMYM later (it's the finale, right?), because I need to watch Mills make a fool of herself and wonder if Joey has left the ham behind or if Briana still has to deal with a silly daddy. Hopefully one of the guys will come to support the Phat One, but not Ju, because just, no. Dude, was Bobbie at the Oscars? I missed her this year. :-( I still say she and JC were the best couple ever.
LOOK! MEMES.
( SPN table-y memes )
( Music Taste )
( I think I've done these before... )
Ekk! I gotta go, DWTS is on, be back later...

P.S. Ballroom blitz? Really?
P.S.S AORWAFSAFSA JOEY LOOKS THE SAME, I MISS UUUU
