Heat Wave.

On the news today they announced that California is in the middle of a heat wave. When is California not in a heat wave? I don't like being hot, I'd rather be cold. Whatever, it's not like I can magically change the weather...Or can I? Nope, I tried, I can't do it. On another note, I saw 'Fantastic Four' over the weekend. There has been much debate over whether or not this movie was any good. Personally, I liked it a lot. Of course everyone is entitled to their own opinions. To those who did not like it...

This was the origin movie. You know, the first movie of a group, the one that introduces the story, characters, and their powers. I compare it to X-men and Spiderman one (Both of which I enjoyed). The truth is that the first film is always a little slow and not full of action. 'Fantastic Four,' like X-men and Spiderman, will only get better in the sequel. By then the characters will be developed, be used to their powers, and will have more evil people to fight. I say give this movie time to find its roots. I liked this movie and I can't wait until the second one comes out.

In other news, I am going camping this weekend. Again. I just went camping but whatever. My family and I are going to Pismo beach. On our way there we are stopping by my Uncle's for a visit. It should be interesting. I haven't seen my cousins for quite some time. I do miss them though. The second set of news I have is that tomorrow is my first gym day. I am meeting with a trainer from 11-12. I bought gym clothes and everything. Another good thing about this is that, even though it is only for a month, Bethany goes to the same gym so we can go together.

That's about all for now, I should have more soon. I am expecting a call from a certain roommate of mine, she should be tell me some news of matrimonial proportions. I'll post again soon!

Something Interesting...

You scored as Angel. Angel: Angels are the guardians of all things, from the smallest ant to the tallest tree. They give inspiration, love, hope, and positive emotion. They live among humans without being seen. They are the good in all things, and if you feel alone, don't fear. They are always watching. Often times they merely stand by, whispering into the ears of those who feel lost. They would love nothing more then to reveal themselves, but in today's society, this would bring havoc and many unneeded questions. Give thanks to all things beautiful, for you are an Angel.

Another Year Down...

So today Bethany called me and told me that her boss had given her free movie tickets and she asked me if I wanted to go. We went and saw "Batman Begins." I really enjoyed it! It had just the right combination of emotional conflict and action. I would absolutely see it again. In other news, tomorrow is my 22nd birthday. Yes, another year has come and gone and I still feel unaccomplished and stuck in this rut known as school. Oh well, at least I am accomplishing something. There is a certain amount of security that comes with school. You come to expect certain things and when it is all over you have to face the real world and hope that you survive.

I just found out that a good friend of mine is getting married. I am really happy for her. She is one of the nicest girls I know. It seems like everyone I know is either getting married or having babies. I know that I am still not quite ready for something like that, but I do feel like I am getting closer. Anyways...That is pretty much it for now. Other than the fact that I went camping over the weekend. It was dirty but fun. I went with my family and we rode quads. Kody, my dog, didn't enjoy it. He does not like being dirty, but he loved the ATV rides. That's all for now...I will post again soon.

Mood: Conflicted

I know, it's been almost a month since my last post...I wish I could say I have been doing better and more exciting things, but the truth is that I haven't. Life here has been slow and boring. My motivation to go out and have a life has been stifled by the heat. I am still actively looking for a job, and I've had a few interviews. But the fact that I can only work for two months and that I won't work on Sundays is hindering my progress.

I am bored here. There is not much to do. I saw "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" the other day. It was pretty good. I cried, I laughed...I generally had a good time. Now some of my friends...*cough, cough...Liz* Probably won't like this movie. Those friends might refer to this movie as corny. Well, people eat corn. And I liked the film...oh, well.

The title of my blog reads conflicted. Well, I am. Part of me longs to go back to school and hang out with my roommies...And the other part of me wants to stay here and enjoy the simplicities of life. Of course that life comes with nagging parents and annoying siblings. It's not always bad here, but it does get aggravating. Maybe tomorrow will bring me a different outlook on my life. Well, I guess that's it for now. Stay safe and keep busy.

The Saga is Complete.

I saw Star Wars: The Revenge of the Sith tonight. I went with my friend Bethany. We got the tickets in advanced, and it's a good thing that we did because there was a huge line to get in when we arrived. When we finally got into the theater it was packed! We did manage to find some good seats up in front however. There was a ton of previews before hand, but all the movies looked pretty good. The crowd we were with were really enthusiastic, they clapped at everything.

The movie itself I liked. It was a lot better than the second one. There was a lot of action and all loose ends were tied up. It made a good transition into the other movies. However there were a few consistencies. {**Highlight the invisible section to hear my rants, but beware there are spoilers about the film contained within.**} These inconsistencies dealt mainly with the death of Natalie Portman's Padma character. She died during childbirth in the film, but in the other films Leia's character talks about the memories she has of her mother. If her mother died during childbirth than she wouldn't have those memories. But whatever, it was still a really good movie. Go Lucas! Well, that's all for now, the job hunt continues and I am tired.
