The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

This movie despite the critics low ratings hits the mark. In this sequel, the sons of Adam and Eve return to Narnia 1,300 years later to find their lands in tatters. The story follows the young Prince Caspian (Ben Barnes) fight to tack back his throne from the evil King Miraz (Sergio Castellitto). This movie features the same fantasy features of the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. I think it is great what Disney has done with C.S. Lewis’ greatest stories.  In Disney’s classic style, the story works seameasly with the graphics. I never once found my self saying “oh, that lives action with bad green screen work.” Here, we see must less of the beloved Aslan.  The story is a great one of faith for children, we can see High King’s Peters stuggle to figure out how to lead his people, and Lucy ability to keep pointing at what he should but never actually saying it. This is quite hard to translate onto screen from Lewis’ book. Disney does so almost seamlessly. To fill out this all star cast from the first movie we have the addition of Ken Scott as the cute Trufflehunter, and the great Eddie Izzard as the Reepicheep the most honorable of all mice.  

Over All Score (3.5 / 4.0)

DAVID SEDARIS

DAVID SEDARIS

Is one crazy ass person. I have never written about him about on the blog, but he is perhaps one of the reasons why I still love listening to the radio. The idea the spoken word can quite literally have me on the ground rolling in fits of laughter is just….welll. COOL. So, if you haven’t heard of David Sedaris I will attempt to tell you just a little bit about him. He is an openly gay man (sorry Christian Zealots, he’s not for your kids [dumbasses]) that has homes in both London and Paris with his lover Hugh.  He can be regulary seen on TV,The New Yorker,  and more importantly on this This American Life. If you don’t listen. You should.  I am attemting to put some links to some of his stuff below. I hope they work. 

He has recently published a new book When You Engulfed in Flames continuing his ability to take the inane details of life and turn them into hilarious essays.

Reading Day!

I hope that you all have a great! I am sitting at the window wanting to be outside, but well it is not happening. I need it to be a good day.

Rain. Biology. Organic Final. Dinner. Piano. Home!

So today is going to be one of those days again.  A day where I have a whole lot to get done, but I am not going to get it done until late. I don’t know why I have to take some breaks between class, and doing work.  It is like oh. I have to let my brain have a break.

Anyway, Enjoy Finals they will kick you in the ass

To Kool for Skool.

Organic Presentation

School……….

I am really really ready for it to be over and done with right now. Not forever because well I am thinking of graduate school, but I need it to be done for like the year. Also, I needed it to be done like two weeks ago. I am so ready for my internship to start. You have no idea. This year has been great but I am ready for it to be over and done with. I sometimes wonder why I chose the major that I chose. Today, the told me though that I am still on the right track at least in that arena. I don’t think very many people get a kick out of reading books about Steroids, and the inate details of their inner-works. I do. I know that just means that I am bigger nerd than I am willing to admit.

So next year. I don’t know what to though. Something inside says that I should take a short break from science so that I can focus on some other things that are important in my life like music, and art. I wish that it was an easier decision. I still don’t know what I want to do post-Knox. I mean graduate school is on the list, and it is still pretty high up on that list. I am thinking that I am would like to maybe do that lab  coordinator job for a year. It would give the chance to put some nice things that I could take with me to graduate school. It would give the me the chance to also take some more environmental studies classes which is something that I really want to do. I wish that I would have started exploring this interests a little bit earlier. GAH. I would think about post-bach’in as well because then I would get to take two classes at a time instead of just taking one which is all that I would get to take if was doing the lab coordinator position. 

DECISIONS DECISIONS…

 

Thats all for right now.

Why School Sucks

School sucks for reasons which have yet to be created. I mean don’t get me wrong I like school most of the time, actually a majority of the time I am a pretty big nerd, but lately. I think that I need an injection of normal. I just want to sit around, and do nothing for a whole day. I am glad that this is happening at the beginning of the term. I really feel like if I look at a chemistry / biology / physics I am going to puke. Like not the pleasant way either…like I am talking projectile puke. I 

Heaven!

Wow, I’m dumb

I should really learn to log out of my account when I access it using other people’s computers. Otherwise, they could totally post entries as me. Or do worse, if they were so inclined. Boy I am lucky my friends aren’t evil. Especially Yvonne, who is the nicest, coolest, awesomest, sweetest person on the planet.

Also, I like socks. Mmmmm… socks.

Still Same Day.

So…

I am thinking about try to figure out how to make the blog look more original. I really like the black on white but I think that it would be cool to make all the colors like sort of retro? Does anyone have any ideas?
