Thursday, March 29, 2007
gah, i should be working! :P
Yeah, I'm updating. Man I have a lot to talk about. As I'm at work, I'm toggling windows from processing claims to typing all this loverly fun stuff on notepad. Hmm.. where to begin.
Upcoming events
Emerald City Comicon
Happening this weekend. Jeremy and I are only going on Saturday. They have announced some pretty darn cool guests such as Peter Mayhew most commonly known as Chewbacca from Star Wars. I, myself, just want to meet Scott Kurtz from PvP and get my Powers TPB's signed by Brian Michael Bendis and Mike Avon Oeming. That would be hawt.
LOL and apparently on Sunday, Oeming is a doing an arm wrestling contest for a $10 donation to HERO, you can arm wrestle Oeming and if you win, you get an original page of POWERS art. Hmm.. maybe I might stop by on Sunday. hehe
WoW TCG expansion pack release
For those who don't know what WoW TCG is.. it's the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game. Yeah. I'm not really too much into it, however I was highly addicted to the MMO. It's mostly for Jeremy, who is really into the TCG. Apparently at Seattle Center there is going to be a sneak preview of the new upcoming expansion to the card game and tournament. For $25, you get a starter pack with some boosters and you play with them and get to keep the cards. In all honestly since it's the same day as Comicon, we'll more than likely go there first, get the cards then head to Comicon. Hehe
Sakura Con
This is next weekend. I'm kinda excited for it, however I can only imagine how even bigger it's going to be. At least from what Chris Louck, American Guest Relations Manager, told me, I'll have Sunday off. That will be nice. I'll try to steal my mom's digi cam so I can take pics and eventually post them.
Lent update
Yeah.. umm.. I'm weak. I gave into chocolate a week ago. I couldn't help it, nor do I care anymore. Chocolate is damn good, it was worth consuming those heavenly Cow Chip chocolate chip cookies that were freshly baked. I went for a few weeks w/o chocolate. I did, however, realize I didn't need chocolate as much as I thought I did. But regardless it was interesting to see how silly one can get when they crave something even more when they know they can't have it. Damn "forbidden fruit" complex >.<
Movies
Having Jeremy be quite the big movie fanatic, which I do enjoy that he does like movies, gives me more opportunities to go to the movie theater to watch them. I honestly forgot most of the movies I've seen in the past few weeks, I'll just go over the ones I enjoyed the most.
300
Yeah. I saw this movie twice already. Yes. It is worth seeing it twice in the theaters, IMO. From what many people have referred this movie as being "all man/male" or whatever, I being not a male/man, enjoyed it. I mean seriously, 300 hard bodies of the Spartans. Yummy. ^_^ But in all honesty, the battle/fight sequences were great, loved the cinematography. Probably one of the best movies I will see this year, however the upcoming Spiderman 3, and Harry Potter: Order of the Phoenix will definitely give 300 a run for best movie for me this year.
Anothing thing I loved a lot was the many webcomic references to this movie. Man, I can't get over them. I'll go ahead and list/link them.
Penny Arcade
Ctrl+Alt+Del
Apple Geeks Lite
Multiplex
They all made me giggle. :D
TMNT
Ahh Turtles. How can you not feel pure nostalgia when you think of TMNT? Although, many critics have complained the jokes were corny and blah, umm.. well EXCUSE ME!?! Turtles' jokes were always corny and silly. The movie was quite enjoyable. There was this one joke that Michaelango said near the end, that just made me giggle beyond all amusement as well as most if not all the audience. I can't remember it for the life of me, but if you know it, let me know!
But one thing I really enjoyed about the movie, were not only some of the big names of some of the voice actors, but the fact that the main characters, ie the Turtles were voiced by non famous hollywood actors, but in fact real talented Voice actors. People who have been in the biz of voice acting. Because lord knows how annoying it can be when you have a famous voice behind some of your favorite characters growing up as a child. That I will definitely applaud the creators of TMNT for. The big names played side roles, which weren't too bad and didn't take away the concentration or focus from the Turtles. I do hope they come out with a sequel.
Eragon
This movie I saw twice in the theaters, and was recently released on DVD. I'm bringing up this movie for many reasons. I'm not sure if I blogged about this, but if you enjoyed this movie, I suggest you read the book. And for those who read the book , but haven't watched the movie, I'm very sorry.
(Warning fan girl rant coming..)
This movie did not do this book justice whatsoever. I mean yeah there was a lot in the book that you coudln't cover in the movie, but seriously, some of the things from the book, they could have easily covered in the movie. One of the biggest things that piss me off, was Arya, the elf princess that Eragon goes to rescue. In the book she has black hair, and is a FUCKING ELF! In the movie, she's strawberry blonde, which I can let that go, but if you're a fucking elf, you better have fucking pointy elf goddamn ears. But noo...apparently the creators thought hey you don't need to put pointy ears on elves for them to be elves. Jesus tap dancing Christ that is beyond retarded. There were many parts of the movie that could have been done a lot better, but meh. The movie is good if you didn't read the book, however I remember how I wish there was more character development when I first watched it, and now I wish there was even more, and they cut out one of the more important characters in the book from the movie, Murtagh, who in book 2, Eldest, proves to be a very important character.
However after watching the movie again for the 3rd time, I was ok with it, but if anything the deleted scenes would have made the movie a lot better, because there were some key elements in the book that I was upset for the movie for cutting out, so if anything that "kinda" made up for it.
After reading the 2nd book, Eldest, I can only imagine how much they would butcher that story too, and if anything there is just WAY too much in that book for them to put into a 2 hour movie. Who knows if there is going to be a sequel. But I can only pray if there is a sequel, they actually try to stick to the book.
Personal things
It has been 8 months now since I've been dating/having a relationship with Jeremy. It's crazy how things turn out to be. There are many instances where I think about a year ago, how things were, when I was living with my ex. How much different my relationship with him was compared to things with Jeremy. I know I might really mushy, but in all honesty I'm crazy about Jeremy. I try to spend most of my free time with him and just wish we lived closer. He lives like a good 30-40 mins away w/ average traffic. It really sucks living that far away from a person, however I've been in relationships where they lived farther. But anyways to get to the point, we have decided that by the time my lease runs out in July/August, I will be moving in with Jeremy in Kent. It will have been over a year since we have been together, and as long as things between us stay good, I will be living in Kent. It will be quite different for me because I will be the one commuting to work. Instead of my awesome 10 min drive taking backroads to work, I'll be travelling 40 mins avg. *sigh* But in the end it will be worth it, I'll be saving more money with rent and bills even though gas prices are going up yet again. But overall I want to live with him, not just as some excuse as I did before to move out of my parents' place, but to honestly live with a person who I love and want to see the relationship grow. (Wow, I've actually said something smart for once :P)
But Jeremy feels the same way, and I'm so happy that he does. The only thing that we will have to face is figuring out what goes and what stays, because that man is a pack rat beyond all imagination. I don't have a lot of stuff and my stuff is mostly furniture that any aparement needs. All I know come around June/July, Jeremy and I will have to have a nice discussion of what we are going to do, the terms of living together etc and what to expect from eachother. I don't want to go into something this big w/o having most of my bases covered to help prevent any possible problems I once had in the past w/ my ex. I just really look forward to living with him and having to come home with him there and being able to snuggle and cuddle with. ^_^
But yeah. I'm really excited for this. Jeremy of course has to kick out his current roommate, Lee, but yeah, it's life. Plus I make a way better roommate anyday ^_~. All in all life is going great. Just trying to save up for stuff, pay bills off and get ready for upcoming events. Life is very busy. I don't get much sleep because I'm retarded and stupid, but yeah, as my friend, Scott would say, "I can sleep when I'm dead"

zomg not another threadless sale!
yeah i haven't been posting. i r teh uber lazy. and honestly just really busy at work, that i barely even have time for webcomics!
and i refuse to type w/ caps right now, so ha!
anyways, threadless has another $10 sale, so i decided to partake in such a splendid event. i recently game my pandamonium in men's xl to jeremy because it no longer fit me, so i bought the girly version! also picked up bad teddy & meat is murder
scott, for some reason i thought of you when i saw the meat is murder shirt. dunno why, it just seems like something i would imagine you would say. but nonetheless great shirts. i would have gotten way more shirts, but i planned on only dropping $30 there.
however, these shirts also deserve honorable mention:
greetins from the ghetto would have so gotten this one in a heartbeat, if it wasn't on white!
planetary status poor poor pluto!
lil' soap so cute. i was so tempted to pick it up.
wwmd? i would have love to have seen how macgyver would have gotten out of that situation!
but yeah i love threadless. great stuff as usual.
but as for me, been just doing the normal work, home, boyfriend thing. working overtime. getting ready and excited for comicon, sakura con, and pax.
almost been 3 weeks w/o chocolate. it's been rough at times, especially when my office has 2 different potlucks where it serves chocolate cake! my weakness. (yes scott, cake > pie for life!) but yeah it's been hard at times, but i'm staying strong, what makes it even worse, it's girls' scout cookie month! those samoas/caramel delights haunt me. oh how i want them so badly. i plan on buying some and saving them for post easter! m'whahahahaha
i also plan on taking jeremy to the cherry blossom festival on april 21 in seattle, that will be very fun. hopefully the weather will be loverly for that.
but life is very good. i'm very happy with jeremy. i love him. he loves me. all is bliss.
