Time to Leap

Well, I figured I would only be able to do this once in 4 years, so why not make a post on leap day. I just made one yesterday, and I am not used to making posts so frequently.

Depressing right?

What did I watch tonight?

G.I Jane: Kinda got boring, so I didn't finish that.

Sleepy Hollow: I have seen that one before, so I wasn't really surprised at all the fake blood.

Species: That one actually made me laugh; the thought of a large cocoon eating people.

Sixteen Candles: You know, the cliche teenager movie with the hot guy that everyone likes.

Spongebob to Atlantis: Nickolodeon special, what can I say?

The Matrix: It was on, but sadly the other viewers wanted to watch Reba.

Urban Legend: Kinda lame; I can't believe I sat through roughly 10 mins of it.

Did I just type that list in Alphabetical order? Sweet.

SO I'm done posting for today. I can't remember the last time I posted more than once in a week.

Oh, Jeebus.

What? March?

What happened to February?

Lately I have been feeling extremely random and unorganized.. like right now, I and sitting in the back seat of a car with my laptop typing a post, not to mention a bag of Nacho Cheese flavored Doritos chips at my side.

What?

172 Days.

Earlier today I was watching "Enter the Dragon," Again.. I watch that movie a lot. Only because it is [in my opinion] one of the greatest movies ever made. Maybe not really, but I just love Bruce Lee.

It was randomly on, so I said "Por que no?"

A couple of friends and I put in "Operation: R.U.N," but it failed miserably; we couldn't even get halfway down the track without laughing our heads off.

What was so funny you ask?

It was just in the moment of running in slow motion to "Eye of the Tiger."

Ejercicio is good for the heart you know. Lately, I have been feeling like a couch-potato, and I figured I would gather some friends up, and do some evening running. It kinda sorta maybe worked out.

I have a slight addiction to the songs "Vincent" and "Ahora Quien." Amazing.

Schindler's List

Hmm, what is that day called, the day after Valentine's day?

The day after Valentine's Day?
Well, I didn't like today so much. It was awful. Lots of 'bad things..' and on top of that, I watched some really depressing war movies. Porque?

First was "Hotel Rwanda." I had heard that it was a good movie and it was on IMDB's top 250 movies as number 75, so I figured it had to be good. Sadly, I missed the first 8.3 minutes, so it was like trying to read brail or something.. it made no sense.

The plot, hmm, I usually talk about the plot. Well basicly, it's about this guy that owns a hotel in Rwanda. Yep. Actually it is a true story based from actual events in Africa in 1994. For some reason this reminds me so much of what happened in Somalia.. Maybe it's all the blood and machetes..

After that I saw an ad for "Schindler's List."

Depressing, Yes.

But informative. Also a yes.

This one I am watching in parts on youtube.. [I saw the other one on the telly.] I figured they had it.

I skipped through so much of it because when they have conversations, it is so boring. I just skip to the parts where there is some action. But oh. The exploding of the heads. That is just.. ugh, terrible. They kill innocent children and people, but then again, what's new? It's just horrific. I haven't watched all of it yet, but I am working on it.

Well this one was about a guy that owned a shop in Krafw, [ok, can't spell it] Poland? Germany.. whoops can't remember, but he owns a shop, and then he saves over 1,000 jews by getting them to work in his factory. Supposedly, he is a great icon in history or something. I have never heard of him. :/

St. Vinny

Ahh. Today is the day that brings joy to this month. I think almost every month has a holiday of some sort. Valentines day is among my favorite. It makes me smile.

THOUGHTS:

"Valentine's Day is an odd holiday. I'm not one to care for it too much. I think we end up putting to much value on the "togetherness" aspect of our lives. I think in some cases it could even make relationships worse as couples stress over what to get each other, trying to get the "perfect" thing for their partner.

I'm of the opinion that if you want to express your love to another, why wait for a particular day to do so? To me, sending me roses on a regular day for no particular reason would be much more well received than sending me roses on Valentine's Day. I think I end up questioning the motives of my partner giving me things -- does he feel obliged because it's Valentine's Day and society says that he should give something to me? If that's the case, then I would rather he not give me anything at all.

I don't want society to dictate to me when I should show affection to my partner and when he should show affection to me. My boy and I may do something nice for each other, like draw a bubble bath or cook, or give a massage or watch a movie together -- but we do these things on a normal basis anyways." -- Reishka

"Love is when you can't be apart from someone for too long...you're always thinking of them, and when you're with them you never want to say goodbye. Love is far from simple. It's quite complex. It's a mix of about everything. It's sadness, joy, passion, hatred, excitement, it's almost every feeling you can imagine and more. You know love when you find it, it's that person that when they smile it brightens up your day, you can't stop staring at them for fear of losing them, they're always on your mind, you daydream of being with them, even if they're less than 20 feet away...and you can't stand it when they're not with you, the worst feeling you could ever feel is when you know that person you love is not with you...you can't tell when love will happen, you just know when it does, that moment when you first lay eyes on that person, and you never want to look away...that is love. Nothing less. "

Too Much

Where have the days gone? I came to make a post, and I saw that the last one was on the 26th. Kinda a long time ago.

This week was--what was it? I don't know.

I have a big headache right now. It just popped up out of nowhere.

I am watching "Never Been Kissed" though. It is one of those movies-- you know the movies that everyone watches, and it becomes a popular love story. It's good.

It's about this woman, who is a loser in high school, and then she grows up to be a reporter, and then she gets assigned to a job as an undercover high school student, and she has to create a story about the lives of those students.

Long story short, she ends up falling in love with one of her teachers, and then they make out for like 30 minutes at the end.

It is good. I have seen it so many times. Even though I know what happens, I really am able to watch it over and over.

My head feels like a bowling ball right now.

Hmm, the presidential election. What is my opinion? I think that the people need to stop leaning on that whole "HILLARY-OBAMA" thing.

OMG! A FEMALE PRESIDENT AND AN AFRICAN AMERICAN!

It's the Apocolypse. My jeebus people.. I have to admit that I feel a little sorry for the other canidates. It's almost like that don't have a chance. I think this is turning more into a celebrity thing. That one guy--what was his name? John Edwards? He dropped out. [Did you know he has his own Wikipedia page?] Well anyway, he has this sad story about his son dying when he was 16 and his wife has cancer. Nobody seems to notice that. Oh, but Hillary and Obama are talking trash about each other.. Ooo, that's front page coverage!

In other news, my computer is officially on crack. This thing keeps crashing, yet it cannot pick up any problems. That dreaded blue screen comes up. Gah, it's so depressing.

Some call it, the "BSOD" or formally known as The Blue Screen of Death. I don't think I want to call it by that name. It sounds too--too negative. Got to think positive here, I have only had this computer for little over a year.

So, I have completed the first entry for February. Tomorrow, I am supposed to have a track session. I wonder if I still remember how to run? I haven't done that in a long time either.
