x-men 3: the last stand

I saw x-men 3: the last stand tonight. yes, i did.

it was pretty good. i enjoyed it thoroughly. the one thing it was lacking was the interaction/action/display of power/general goodness of Phoenix. i was pretty disappointed by her lack of action, and what little action she did have, in her lack of power usage. sure, she telekenisis'ed the hell out of a bunch of rocks, alcatraz, and made people disintigrate, but i was looking for her to bust out into her pyrokinetic phoenix "form" (a la the cartoon) and fly around, burning things (and maybe to hear the classic phoenix screech in the background). she seemd too timid when she wasn't pissed, and too dulled down (from my memory of her) when she was pissed (which equals action).

also, archangel played a much more minor role than i would have liked to see. sad day, but you can't get it all.

over all, it was a great movie, and a good conclusion(?) to the trilogy (so far?) of x-men movies.

must see!

confirmation

i've been hammering out stuff for school in the fall, and i finally decided on university of colorado at boulder (CU). i'm pretty excited. i'll be going as a pre-journalism/mass communication major and i'll be focusing on either media studies or broadcast production. that may all change once i talk to an adviser about classes.

GO BUFFS!

bored and boring

holy crap, i'm so bored. but, like one of my cbc classmates says, "only boring people are ever bored" so i guess i'm pretty damn boring.

I still don't have a job (yet) so it looks like i've had 2 weeks off instead of just 1.

um... yea, i told ya... bored and boring

it's been a while... since i could say that i've updated my blog

i know, i know, i've been really bad at updating my blog since i've been home, but suck on a lemon!, because it's my blog.

lemme see... anything new? i've been working on the yard, i got to drive and play with a tractor today! that was cool.

there really isn't anything new. i called high noon today about getting a job again, and i'm waiting for a call.

tonight i'm hangin with the goose and i get to smoke my pipe! wicked awesome...

i guess i am just too boring now that everything is "normal" again...

it's strange...

I'm still feeling kinda torn between being happy about being back and missing where I came from.

Random side note: Any CBCer out there, I started the message board back up, if you didn't get the email, email me for the address.

I'm just hangin' out for this week. Just tryin to recoup from being away for so long and the travel...

chickens?

i'm finally home, and i'm feeling like a chicken with it's head cut off... more to come

How long, how long?

Wow.. when was my last entry? The 11th? Geez, I'm lame.

Well, since Daniela got here on the 6th I've been either busy running all over the place to get her ready to live here on her own or I've been stuck in the house catching cabin fever because 2 feet of snow got dumped on us, effectively cutting off any chance to do anything at all.

So Dani is going to be living in my sister & brother-in-law's basement, which is pretty cool because it's a totally finished basement, with a bathroom, and they're renting it to her pretty cheap, in comparison to an apartment... So we've been running around like made getting her furniture, a bed, decorations, etc... plus we've been running like mad to get her a driver's license, her US resident papers, a car, car insurance, and everything else you could imagine a person who just moved here would need. But in the end, as of today, she's gotten her license (well, she passed the tests and is waiting for the license to come in the mail), gotten a car (2001 Suzuki Grand Vitara), car insurance, her US resident papers and card, furniture, a bed, and a lot of little stuff too. So she's nearly 100% set up, and I'm exhausted from running around with her. But it was fun for the most part.

As for me, well, I'm just kinda blah. I'm super happy and excited for Dani to be here and start living here, close to me, but at the same time, I'm just kinda blah with everything else in my life. Last semester at CU put me in a sour disposition because of the gen. ed. classes I had to and still have to take, and I really didn't like the journalism class too much. I feel like having to go through all the journalism stuff just to get to the broadcast production piece isn't worth it. But I am taking a film class next semester which I'm excited for, and I think after I take that, I'll be able to decide if I want to be a Journalism major for the Broadcast Production or if I want to be a Film major. Who knows, it's all still up in the air.

The rest of my life is just blah. Boring, plain, blah, unsatisfying, unadventurous, boring, boring, boring. My spiritual life is dead. Sad to say, but true. I have no spiritual feeling at all. I feel dead to the spiritual. But, this is nothing new. I've been like this, without any feeling whatsoever, since CBC. I don't know when at CBC, but sometime during the year I just started fading out of my relationship with God. I don't pray, I don't read the bible, I don't get anything out of going to church, and I feel no connection to God. And yet I hesitate to do anything different because of the connection and realness of God I have experienced before. I have experienced God in the past, I've heard his voice and I've felt his comfort and I've known him (or at least thought I have), and now I feel spiritually dead.

I don't know what to do anymore, I don't know where to turn anymore, I don't know what to say anymore, I don't know what I am doing wrong, I just don't know, and it's killing me.
