Kal-el Superman! Kate Beckinsale Lois Lane?


Today I went to go see Superman Returns with my buddies: Perry and Kingsley. Kingsley's workmate also tagged along (and I only hope that the conversations us three had didn't make her feel uncomfortable). Pretty good movie, it brings back some nostalgic memories of the old Superman movies. They've got a few quips that will even satisfy the most hardcore fan boys (ie. Perry the fairy).

I was quite surprised at how fitting Brandon Routh was as Superman/Clark Kent. He's reminscent of Christopher Reeve's potrayal of the DC superhero, even though he looks a little young. I have to say his hair looked really greasy at times during the movie.

Kevin Spacey was awesome as Lex Luthor, however, the disappointment was with Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane. I had no idea why, but her portray of Lois seemed to be deflated and flat. I would of loved Kate Beckinsale to be Lois Lane, not just cause shes hot and I'm biased, but because she could really fit the part.



She could be one hot Lois Lane.


However, the feeling I got from the movie was that every cast and crew member of the movie tried their best to create something special for the fans and in my opinion that really shone through in this movie. So I'd like to say good work the cast. I'm starting to sound like a movie critic so I'll stop there.

We headed to West Edmonton Mall at around 4:00 and arrived at 4:30 only to find out, to our dismay, that the IMAX 3D Showing of Superman Returns was all sold out. It seems like we'll have to go another day to watch the 3d version which I looked, and still look forward to. Perhaps next week.

We went to Moxie's to eat after. After much dilberation, Perry and I (notice the correct grammer,) ordered an "Xtreme Burger", which was "Xtreme" indeed. 2 paddies, bacon, cheese, and mushrooms sandwiched inbetween two buns proved to be too much bite, so we had to dismantle our burgers with a forks and knives. First time that I would have to use forks and knives to eat a hamburger. Boy was that massive.

We returned home satisfied, yet my car's stomach was growling for gas. Unfortunately, the Domo's were closed (I get 7 cents off) as it was too late. To make matters worse, the gas prices increased, rubbing in the fact that I should of filled up on tuesday and not waited till today (my 7 cents coupons only apply on tuesdays and wednesdays -_-). So looks like I have to pay a bit more for my gas for being a procrastinator. I deserve it.

Oh well, today I got 27 as my brain age. But Toro hates me for some strange reason. He won't respond when I say his name. Stupid dog.

I'm think I'll go eat dinner with my dad for a bit on sunday before I head over to Kingsley's birthday party. Haven't seen him since he left before game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals. He'll probably say something along the lines of "Oilerah SUXS" in his chinese fob accent. In which, I will rebuttle, "So does your karaoke singing" and then laugh in his face as he tries to find something to say to me. Thats what happens when somebody leaves me in Study Hall and makes me take the bus home because of my sarcastic comment. HEY YOU SHOULD GET SARCASM! (I love my parents...)

My Free Day: Spring Cleaning

Wow, 4 posts in 4 days. Not bad eh? I guess because this blogging thing is so new that I like to post everyday. It's also good practice to communicate by writing. I think I have lots of problems with that. My english papers are shit because I suck at english, my ideas are ok though. Blogging is also a good way to keep your mind in shape during the lazy months of summer in my opinion. On to today's entry...

I woke up today to feel like total crap. Having 30 degree Celcius weather combined with a thick blanket can totally turn your morning around. Despite having a major headache and nausea I got up and messaged my co-workers informing them that my attendence today would not be likely. I went back to sleep and got up at 12:00pm, feeling much better.

Deciding it was too late to go to work anyway, I decided to play some Ragnarok Online. Yes...I am a nerd. However a few hours later and after witnessing France's sensational win over Spain, I decided to clean my room. (Motivation to do this would not have been possible without the Ragnarok Server going down for a few hours.) I took the liberty of taking a few pictures of my room to remind me of the mess before. Here they are:

Holy Shit eh?

Ok quite the mess eh? After a few hours, an Oprah episode, and massive sweating as a result of the humid hot weather I managed to make my room a more bareable living space. (The Oprah episode was quite interesting, it was about a former Family Ties child actress reverting to porn. They also invited the parents, who hired a stripper for their 16 year-olds birthday party, to come talk about their experience with the entire ordeal. About 15 minutes in, Oprah had made a comment about America being screwed up, I was quite stunned that she would say something like that. I was also surprised when the audience clapped in agreement. Screwed up indeed. Of course, who am I to judge?)

Yah my bed is not made (I never make it kuz I mess it up every night nayway) and yes that is me in the way of the second picture -_-)



I'm happy with my progress today, and although this was a day off work, I felt it wasn't really the vacation that I thought it would be. But I'm happy, I atleast did something productive besides play video games. Now that my room is clean maybe I can get some girls to come over? hahah yah right. A Kate Beckinsale or Aya Ueto would be ideal.

So after finishing my room, I started my video game run. I taught Toro to roll over and sneeze. He already knows how to sit, lie down, jump and wag his tail. I'm damn proud of my nintendog. I'm going to get some ice cream, tomorrow its off to see Superman: Returns on IMAX 3D (I hope).

KATE BECKINSALE!!!!(Thought I'd throw this in because shes so hot)

Click: Kate Beckinsale

Went to go watch Click today at WEM at 10:25. Good movie, more on that later. The showing was late so our crew decided to be arcade rats and play a couple of video games. Bishi bashi was pretty fun. Its a game where there are three buttons and you play a variety of mini games with them. Everything form eating curry, to running away from a man-lady trying to give you kisses.

Perry had a strange obessesion with the (F)lame game, where you guide a flame with your finger through a maze. If you finish within an alotted time (which is quite short btw), you can get a nintendo gamecube or PSP. The game costs a dollar a pop, and only lasts for 15 secs or so. Its a good game if you can win, but I find that game rather impossible.

Near the end of our time in the arcade, Sam convinced me to play a round of DDR, which I hadn't done for a long time. I quit DDR because it makes you look like your jogging, which I could do without paying the dollar. Since, she was paying for it and my friend Gugenz was to join me and help me press the buttons on the game pad, it seemed like an enticing deal.

However, everything did not go as smoothly as expected. Gugenz bailed when I accidentally set the difficulty on hard (As he pointed out we would of looked like a couple of idiots on one dance pad). To make matters worse we failed the game 11 seconds in. Goodbye $2. Luckily somebody had put in one dollar prior to our turn playing it so we resorted to playing single player. My god that was embaressing, and I vow never call upon my (Shitty ass) DDR skills, unless it will get me a date with a really hot girl.

(Let's never again recollect the days we used to play DDR, especially when we did tricks. That was just retarded. I remember one time when I danced DDR for a japanese project, that was stupid and I feel like shooting myself upon recollection of such memories. From now on I have amnesia of those days. I'm sure I'll be reminded of it again once I have a wedding [if I ever find that perfect girl] and my friends are all invited just for the sole sake of embaressing me. Yeehaw!)

Click is great. My primary reason for watching it was KATE BECKINSALE. Damn, is she hot. (Nice body, nice face and oooh the accent.) I was taken away by her role in Underworld: Evolution, however, after seeing Click, I saw a more realistic/domesticated Kate. I feel that she is hotter than ever (especially in her Pocahontas outfit). If I was married to her, I would never leave her alone. Len Wiseman, if you fuck up your marriage with her, then you'll be committing a crime to all men.



Yah..I'd marry her


However, Click, in my honest opinion, is a worth while movie to watch, even if it didn't have Kate in it (I'm glad it did though). Although predictable, I feel that it had depth and emotional impact. It made me reflect on what we should do with life and how we live it day-by-day. I don't wanna ruin it for anybody so I'll leave it at that, but I definately recommend the movie.

(Btw, Poor Dr. "Shit" got owned by a tree while biking. Now hes sorta like Dr. House, sans the cane and blazer. You have the attitude and the limp Tmo, now lets see if you can get the rest. With your hat on you look like a poor cancer boy. We should collaborate on that miscommunication blog and call it Tmo on crack blog. Hahaha :D ).

Toro needs my attention right now so I'll leave it at that.

I get to hang out with a super mario character and you don't...

Another 1am post for me again as I'm waiting for my hair to dry before I go to sleep. Chinese people say you can get headaches if you sleep with your hair wet. I say you just get really bad bed hair.

So what did I do today? Play DS and hockey. My Nintendo DS lite is great, I would make love to it, but that wouldn't be right. Its very versatile: Brain Age trains your brain. Hopefully by the end of summer I'll have a higher IQ (Yah right..). I did bad today tho, apparently right after I wake up my brain age is 40. Great.

You can use it as an alarm clock. I need this, because I never get up in time for work without one.

You can raise a virtual dog. Meet Toro, my nintendog. Wonder why I won't have much of a social life. This is the reason. This dog is great, doesn't pee in my shoe, doesn't crap on the floor and, most importantly, doesn't wake me up to go for a walk at 4:00 in the morning. If I get sick of the dog, I just shut him off. But I never do. God I sound like a geek.


Toro the Nintendog

Know whats also great about the DS lite? Super Mario. This game is great. The ability to grow ginormous and crush things is fun, especially when you get 1-up mushrooms for doing it.

Speaking about Mario, I'm lucky in that I get to hang out with a Super Mario character. You know him as chain chomp, but we call him Mike. Mike likes children, so its fitting that hes in a Super Mario game. In fact, Mike likes children so much that...I'm just kidding. Hes not that obsessed with them, atleast I hope hes not. Mike: if I ever find you on that show where they bust pedophiles, I'll chain chomp you myself.

Chain chomp

Oh and Mike, things could be a lot worse trust me...atleast you didn't walk into a pole in jr high. Or land on your neck tobogganing. Or put stuff in your nose only to have it stuck there, until you blew it out. Or drink the soap paint while trying to do bubble painting in kindergarden. Or get caught eating dogs, ok the last thing didn't happen to me...yet...

Off to bed..work calls.

My First Post and My Consultation with the Sh*t Doctor

Just wanted to say...
This is my first blog, I've never had a blog before and decided to start one because it seems like a fun idea. My friends have one so I thought, "Maybe I should get one to, because my friends are cool and I wanna be cool too". Unfortunatly the world doesn't work like that, because my blogs will probably suck. Yup, the only reason youwill read this blog is out of sheer boredom. My grasp of english grammer and spelling with be the only thing that amuses you, because you'll either have, A, a fun time trying to deceipher what i'm trying to say or B, a fun time laughing at my grammatical and spelling errors. Eventually I know they'll eventually get frustrated with trying to figure the point of my blogs, but don't worry, the grammer police will probably have beat me up and left me for dead on the street before you've finished reading it. Atleast you'll have a fun time. (I aim to please).

I suppose another reason for starting a blog could be that blogging is some theraputic way of feeling important or relevant in the world. Just to let the world know: "I'm here". It's a nice thing to have, but not as nice as chilling with your friends and/or family. Especially if it involves humiliating them, in a funny way.

Anyway on with the blog, it looks to be a fun time, for me, anyway. Btw, can you swear in blogs? Like say fuck and shit? If not I guess I'll just get beaten up by the blog spot police, you can laugh at that too.

My Consultation with the Shit Doctor
Men, I would like to introduce you to the shit doctor. Hes like Hitch, but with poo. So I suppose you could call him..."poo"? I dunno. But his real name is Thomas, (his last name is "No good", but turns out he knows a lot so he's not exactly no good). My story starts out with me hanging out with Dr. Shit at the Biggest Mall in the World (OH YAH!), West Edmonton Mall. At lunch time we decide to be asian and eat at T&T (Sad..yes...we are sad...). I recollect my days studying at NREF for finals and talk to him about the washrooms and the various problems that arises when one is "droping a deuce" in a public washroom.

Dr. Thomas, PhD in fecal tactics


My experience was that, whenever you were pooing, the toilets would automatically flush causing what I like to call "splash". It is also accompanied by a wierd cool sensation as air is rushing to the inside of the toilet to make up the for the loss of pressure due to the toilet flush. Why the damn automated toilets do this, I don't know, But its damn retarded.

Dr. Thomas "Shit" with his expertise advises me 2 solutions to "splash" problems. 1) Put in toilet paper before sitting on the toilet. This reduces splash because of increased viscosity of the water. 2)Use toilet paper to drop the poo. Details of this one are too nasty even for me to get into. Actually I don't even wanna mention it because I don't want to think about 1000 people trying this. In fact, I find this solution ridiculous..but I suppose it would work...

Dr. Shit also advised me to use the higher floor washrooms because, apparently, the higher you go, the cleaner the washrooms.

Great lunch conversation eh? All I can say is, the conversation was stimulating, so i suppose thats all that mattered. Also, we're guys, we love our sports teams more than the significant others love us back. Sad but true. Ok ok, only some times...

As you can tell from my first blog, I'm quite blunt. You can also tell that I won't be able to get girlfriend in the very near future or ever just cause of this blog. Shizzle, I'm fucked. All girls will probably turn tails and run if they see me. BIZZLE!

To conclude...
I'd like to say Aya Ueto is hot. MARRY ME! Hahhaha not likely! (-_-')



Look forward to my next blog. It'll have something to do with super mario 3, super mario world and super mario 64.
