Night at the Museum

Today I went to my home theatre to watch Night at the Museum. It was a great movie! I loved the CG animation and the storyline. I loved the part where the T-Rex AKA Rexy came alive for the first time. Ben Stiller ran as fast as he could, thinking the T-Rex was gonna eat him. Well...Rexy just wanted to play fetch! Great movie! Be sure to see it!

ERAGON

This last Wednesday I saw Eragon at our home theatre. At first I didn't know what to think of the movie, but it has really grown on me. I like it a lot now and would love to see it again. I've heard from people who have read the book that it is now that good, but I haven't read the book...yet...and I have to say that the movie was fantastic, with a surprise ending! The movie was sort of a mix between Lord of the Rings and Star Wars. But isn't all fantasy like that now? Those two serieses were the best of them all! Nothing beats them, but still...Eragon takes a piece of the prize for fun and entertainment. Definitely a great movie to see!

Shopping at Cato

One of my favorite places to shop is Cato. They have such terrific clothes, and just today I bought three new pairs of jeans. I love that store. They keep up with the current styles, and thier clothes fit great! All I need now is more money to go shopping!

And tomorrow our family comes over from my Dad's side. Gonna have fun! (Besides a Big Screen TV, I bought myself a new computer and some new Nintendo DS games for Christmas. Pretty Sweet Computer!)

The End of My College Classes

I'm done with school, done with finals, done with those horrible classes! I did great on all of them, I'm sure. On my last two math tests I got over 100 percent, and my last sociology test was over 100 percent, too. Alright! And next semester in the Spring is gonna be even easier! I'm gonna love it!

I Passed My Keyboarding Test!

Yes! I passed out of the keyboarding development class and got an advanced standing credit today. Now I don't have to take that class! Yes! I passed with 71 gwam and only 2 errors on my 5 minute timing! That was my best timing yet! I had to start over 5 times, though, before I actually started typing good! I was so nervous that I couldn't stop shaking! But I finally passed it! Thank You, Lord!

The Last Smallville Episode of the Year

Subterranean was a pretty good episode. I still can't believe that Lana is pregnant and that Lex proposed to her. She didn't say yes, unfortunately. I like the idea of Lana and Lex together. They are both evil, they belong together. But...it won't happen, just like my fantasy of Chloe and Clark together won't happen. Oh, well. I can still dream! The end of this last episode was pretty sweet with Lex walking down the halls of 33.1. Awesome! Can't wait till next year to see when Clark teams up with some Justice League Characters.

HEROES (Fallout)

WOW! This was an amazing episode! Isaac Mendez painted a new revelation without any drugs, and that was a real shocker when the painting was unveiled. "I've got to find that sword," said Hiro. That was cool! And Claire told her father, but it was good to see that she got to keep her memory, unlike the rest of her acquaintances. That was so cruel of her father to take away her only friend's memory! And Niki turned herself in! I can't wait to see how that turns out. And Sylar! He's released! Oh, no! And also Peter Petrelli had a horrible vision about the future. Could it really be him? I guess we will see on January 22nd! Boy, that is gonna be a long, hard wait!

The Nativity Story

Last night I went to our hometown theatre for college movie night, and I watched The Nativity Story. Wow, it was good! I loved the fact that the movie showed how hard it would have been for Mary and Joseph in society. Mary was looked down upon. That's probably how it was. And it was so cool to see Joseph saying things that Jesus would later expand on such as the temple of God being riddled with shops. What a great movie!

Avatar Season Finale

It has been a great Earth Season of Avatar! I loved that Appa went missing. Even though that was horrible for several episodes, it still gave the story a great plot. But what I couldn't believe was when Zuko set Appa free! That was truly Amazing! I loved Iroh's speech to Zuko at that time, too...about choosing your own destiny and letting go of what others were telling him to do. It was great! But then Zuko threw that all away and turned his back on Iroh. Now he's running with Azula, his sinister sister. Poor Iroh! What a great season finale, too! I can't wait till the next season starts. Iroh is sure to be Aang's firebending teacher. And I'm still hoping that Zuko will turn to the good side of things and join Aang in defeating the firelord. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Nintendo Wii or PS3?

I love the Nintendo Wii, and I can't wait to get one. But right now on Ebay they are too expensive for me. I also can't wait to get a PS3. I love my PS2 and it will be great to upgrade some day. The graphics looks so sweet! But I think that the first system I will buy will be the Wii. It is so much more interactive, and it looks a lot "funner" than the PS3! Plus, it has got great games! And I'm a big fan of the old N64 and Gamecube Zelda games, especially N64's Ocarina of Time! That is the best game ever! Can't wait to get a Wii so we, my family that is, can play!

Happy Birthday DAD!!!

Today was my Dad's 51st birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! For his birthday we had enchiladas, his and my favorite meal. I love his birthday because I always get to eat my favorite home-cooked meal again! Thanks, Dad! I hope you have another great year in your life! And thank you for always being there for me when I needed someone to talk to. You are my role model! May God Bless Your Steps!

Guitar Hero 2 ROCKS!

Last night I bought GH2 and got to play it with my cousins and friends. The first one was awesome, but this one is even better with many more features. I love the multiplayer mode the best. With three brothers, that part of the game gets a lot of use. Currently I am on the Hard mode of the first game and the starting of the Hard mode in the second. I already love the songs Carry on My Wayward Son and Sweet Child Of Mine. Oh, and also Gemini, which is a bonus song. Below is a clip of some guy playing YYZ on GH2. This video is pretty sweet!

Happy Anniversary to My Parents!

Happy 24th Anniversary, Mom and Dad! My parents are my role models in life. They saved themselves for the other before marriage and still continue to this day to love and cherish each other. May God continue to bless your marriage, Mom and Dad! You have been such great examples for me, and I thank God for you everyday! You are the best!

Save the Cheerleader, Save the World

What is that supposed to mean? Hiro from the future came back to tell Peter Petrelli this strange message. We all know that it refers to Claire, but how will he save her and what will it accomplish? Will it stop the New York Bomb Explosion? I guess we'll find out later on!

HEROES on NBC

This show just keeps getting better and better! There are outrageous cliffhangers at the ends of the episodes that keep me on the edge of my seat all week long! Like the last one! What is going to happen to Claire? She woke up and her body was laid open in front of her! Wow! What a horrible cliffhanger! Can't wait till next week!

Smallville (Sneeze)

Today the Smallville episode Sneeze aired, and it is one of my favorite episodes. I loved that Clark got his breathing powers. Now all he needs to get is his freezing breath powers. My favorite scene was when he blew off the wall with his breath! Chloe rocks at helping him! It made my day when Clark finally knew that she knew! It was about time! Now they make the greatest dual team!

My Family

My family consists of six people. My parents, who have been married for almost 25 years, my three annoying but lovable brothers, and me, the only daughter and first child. My oldest brother, Tyler, teases all of the time by tickling, whistling, and making other strange noises. Caleb, the middle brother, is calm and keeps to himself pretty much. He loves rock music and all of the girls are crazy about him. Isaac, the youngest in the family, is the one that I have most in common with. We like the same shows, the same video games, and like to talk about such things with each other. I love my brothers and wouldn't trade them for the world!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!

Today is my birthday, and I've turned 20 years old. No longer a teenager! Today for my birthday I celebrated with my family at home. We had a good meal of enchiladas, my favorite food, and then I got to watch one of my favorite shows air its season 6 beginning - Smallville (Zod). It was a pretty good episode, and a pretty good birthday, too. God Bless!

HEROES on NBC

Wow! This show looks like it is gonna rock! I love anything to do with superheroes. Superman is my all-time favorite superhero, hence why I love Smallville and Lois & Clark, but this show is in a whole other dimension. I already like Claire Bennett. She is a great character. I can't wait to see what happens next!

Avatar The Last Airbender

Today the first season of Avatar The Last Airbender came out on DVD! Avatar is an animated show on Nickelodeon and it has been one of my favorites from its first airing. Finally, Book 1: Water came out on DVD, and I can enjoy all of the episodes again. Avatar is by far the best animated Nick show I have seen in a long while. God Bless!

My First Week of College Classes

This semester is going to be much easier than the last two semesters I have had. My sociology class is pretty self explanatory, and my math class only has little bits of homework. No studying required this time around it seems. This will be the last time I take math, and I’m glad of it. English, on the other hand, is being taught online this year, so that will be a new experience. I like it, though. I can set my own hours for the class.


September 11, 2001

On September 11, 2001, I remember sitting in my history class, watching the television that had been rolled in there and set up. I was watching history unfold before my eyes. I couldn't believe what had happened. Yesterday I saw a sign at an automotive shop that said, "We will never forget September 11th." A while ago I had seen United 93 and it was such a great movie. Very touching! I also saw The World Trade Center, which was quite good as well. May God Bless America in these years to come!

The Start of a New School Year

It is the start of the new school year here at my little ol' Iowa community college, and I'm excited about all my new second year classes. I've got several computer classes, math, and english. I'm hoping Math for Liberal Arts will be a pretty easy class, easily understood, that is. My computer classes will be fun because I'm great at computers. Can't wait for those classes! All in all, I'm looking forward to a great new school year! God Bless!
