job/bday

it's been a couple weeks since my last post and i must say i've been on my grizzy with the job hunting and it paid off. I have a job and will start training on monday the 31st of this month. I will be helping the nation with their vonage technical questions [it help desk support]. i'm so happy for that, because it wasn't months and months before i got a job...just a couple weeks.

also i'm now 25! my birthday was this past thursday and I have rly had a great birthday weekend...I mean i got surprised by my mom, dad, brother, aunt, grandma cousins and friends. I never realized I was this loved haha, but I owe it all to my fiance erika because she put that in motion. You don't even know it's been so long since i've seen my family...had to be when i graduated was the last time, so it's been about a year in a few months.

I've seen two movies over my bday the goods: live hard sell hard and inglorious basterds...oh how i love goin to the cinema!

I also got to go to nakatos [japanese restaurant] the food was exceptional but very pricey but it's all good we eat and were merry...I COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER BIRTHDAY. thanks to my friends and my family and my baby erika!

been a while

as the title states it's been a while since my last post. i have decided to update whoever reads this blog [maybe i'm just writing it to get my thoughts outta my head idk].

as of now i am jobless, i have finally moved into the apartment in charlotte and have left boone/blowing rock. I feel good about things just ready to start a new chapter in my life. so now i can hang with my friends, look for a good job and just do things I haven't done. for instance, i'm hittin up a rollerderby meet with my boy wayne on aug 9th.

my fiance says that tv shows and the computer come a close second to her...i don't believe that one bit but i can't lie i do love my tv shows. they are like movies but condensed form, i get taken away and i enjoy that. the tv shows i've been watchin recently are true blood [crazy good show, love vampires], hung, entourage. i rly can't wait till september starts up cause house and lie to me and basically every other show that ended in the fall will be back.

all in all i'm just ready to live my life and try to make something happen. just live life [that's the new philosiphy]. alright i'm signin off hopefully i'll be back and it wont be like a month or so.

these are just to name a few. I have others that i've already read and may update those, but these are to get you started. they are all great comics, some bloody some just creepy but all badass.

goin' goin' back back to the q.c. q.c.

Season Finales

Tis that time of year again when all my shows that I watch have come to a close and I have to sit and wait until they come back on or I find diff shows to replace them.

Season Finales:
Dollhouse: great season finale and i'm happy to hear that fox has picked it up for a second season [they better have lol]. This has to be one of my fav new shows for obvious reasons.

Chuck: this show has been a fav of mine for two seasons, and I was sad that nbc had to even think about renewing this for a third season they should have just known...I mean everyone that watched it knew it needed another season especially with that finale. I KNOW KUNG FU. Even though this comeback comes with exceptions (i.e. people not returning, and only 13 eps, etc)

Castle: i'm happy to see this get another season, I have really enjoyed the character progression and the way it has been goin and i'm glad other people watch it as well.

CSI: i'm sure it will be back no doubt about that [just the ending with Laurence cappin the dude in the trunk...shoot i would have done the same thing...nothing he could have done to talk that dude down].

LOST: omg that season finale blew my mind. I mean they finally show Jacob and tell a lil about him and "his enemy" and then he dies [or so we think..idk]. I can't wait for the next and last season of Lost, it will surely be missed.

Lie to Me: the season finale was good...i kinda wish they would have had the one before the season finale be the season finale, but I can see what they did and it was still very well done. I'm happy to know this has been picked up for another season as well. As I still need to see more people liein and also lightman's protege step her game up. Also, hopefully Mekhi will be back in a supporting role [moved from er to lie to me] good to see he's gettin ample work.

HOUSE: that season finale I was like the ep before couldn't have happened and low and behold I was right. Wow at the end I was just like F you vicodin. I mean to hallucinate that much and believe it so, so strongly WOW...they better bring that back.

Fringe: the season finale seemed fitting. I'm so happy it got picked up for another season especially with that ending. I mean i always knew there was something off between peter and his dad. I mean his dad sayin you remember this about ur childhood and peter being like nope don't remember that. Now I know why....THAT'S CRAZY. I will be back for seconds with this show.

24: well it was 24 wasn't really a cliff hanger ending, but I mean 24 is always so action packed so it never really feels like a season finale. I will be waiting for season 8.

Scrubs: gotta love scrubs I will be sad when it is finally off the air [whenever that will be]. Shoot if it does get picked up for another season I can't wait.

Heroes: has been pretty stagnate to me...but I do still watch this show religously. I just can't get enough of it . I want them to fully tell the story they want to tell. So i'm happy to know it will be back for another season. Especially with that season finale...nathan gone slyer/nathan hybrid...WHAT!?!

Sad to see them go [shows that wont be back for another season]:
Terminator Sarah Conner Chronicles: I mean I knew this was gonna happen but I just didn't want it to happen. It had a great run and it's sad to see it not returning.

The Unusuals: Even though the season isn't officially over yet. It will not be picked up for another season. This sucks, because I really enjoy watchin this show. I have connected with the characters...but I guess not everyone gets the show.

IDK if there will be more seasons:
Sources say the law and order franchise may not be returning...This would be so stupid because I love law and order and it's counterparts, even the UK edition. I would hate to see this great show be gone from television forever. Only the big wig tv people hold their fate in their hands.

It's been a while since my last post but next post will be a summer movie post...UNTIL NEXT TIME

They Live

the 1988 movie they live showed me that aliens may exist and we wouldn't even know. they rule our country and send out subliminal messages to us all thru our tv sets, posters and basically anything and you wouldn't know it.

this is a clip from the movie showin that basically anything was sayin to do something and the people didn't know. i have come to a conclusion that with tv today they still use those antics. gettin people to do what they want or buy what they want, but because it's been drilled into our heads or they use catchy songs and things of that nature.

CASE IN POINT...mickey d's with there new FILET O FISH commercial. the song is so catchy that it made me want and even buy their filet o fish and i don't even like fish sandwiches like that...that's how they do things.



everyone has been all over this...i mean it's a nice commercial and funny. WATCH OUT EVERYONE they do live and they control us whether we want to believe it or not.

A Mirror With Memory

for the longest I have had this itch to be an ammature photog. I've researched cameras within my price range and also look for settings and iso rates, and aperture etc etc. the camers that I have chosen to want to own is what follows:

This camera I have researched a ton. I even found where I can get it for under $200. It has everything I need can take awesome videos and the best yet it takes professional photos without having that professional price. It's a great in between camera [a step up from the point and shoot, but a step below a digital slr].

Product Features

• 8.0-megapixel CCD captures enough detail for photo-quality 16 x 22-inch prints
• Ultra-powerful 12x optical zoom; up to ISO 1600 for steady shooting in any lighting conditions
• High-resolution 2.5-inch vari-angle LCD for easy shooting at any angle
• DIGIC III Image Processor with improved Face Detection Technology and red-eye correction for sharper images
• Print/Share Button for easy direct printing and downloading

Eventually I will get this camera and will be snappin photos and being the photog that I know I can be. Haha that sounds so cliche. I will get this camera though in due time, I do have vacations and what not coming up.
