Off-Topic: The Epicness…

The past 24 hours have been filled with so many sorts of epicness. On Saturday night the family gang went to see the new Batman movie- which was GREAT. I’ve always liked superhero type movies because of my love for manga, but I was never super obsessed or anything about American comics. I saw the Spiderman movies and the old Batman movies and I liked them (I still really like Spiderman 2), and I saw Batman Begins (also whilst on vacation) and thought it was good. But this movie was just pure awesomeness. Joker = pure amazing. I know the movie was hyped a lot, but I still thought it was really rather great. Other than the fact that I had to pee like the dickens after 2 hours and 30 minutes, time flew by when I was watching. I definitely plan on seeing it again (maybe 2 more times, once it comes to the local strand)

Sadly, as my stupid family decided to go see the movie on Saturday, I had to choose between Batman and the Avatar: the Last Airbender series finale. I figured I could record Avatar, so I did. I really had wanted to have an Avatar party or something, but sadly, no such thing got to happen. But I did get to see it today!

O. M. G.

It was just.. wow… I won’t say what happens because I don’t want to spoil anything. But just wow. My only peeves were 2 people’s stories that were left unanswered (if you saw it you will know who I am talking about). That frustrates me, but I’ll get over it. Especially if these so called specials are created. I am just soooooooo sad to think that Avatar is over. There is no more “Will he defeat the fire lord?” or “Will he master earth bending in time?”. It’s done. It just makes me really, really sad. Like, the best animated show is done. It’s one of the first times that a show I liked finished it’s run (where as normally I find out about the show after it is already done, so I’m not missing out on the excitement of it being new). No more adventures with the Gaang. It’s so bittersweet, because the finale was great. I could probably say the same thing about the Batman movie- it was rather bittersweet, because Heath Ledger was amazing as the Joker, he stole the show. And to know that he won’t be back does make any future movies rather depressing. It does leave me to wonder how it will be handled. After Spiderman 2 I really didn’t care if they made another or not, as I liked it so much better than the first movie. The Dark Night is doing the opposite, I liked it so much I want more (but it will be damn hard to beat it. The bar is now raised pretty frigging high).

I still can’t get over the epicness of it all (or the fact that I’ve said “epicness” about a zillion times now). I really can’t accept that Avatar is done. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Please, I will wait 9 months again just for new episodes! I will wait 7 months again just for more Zuko!

*le sigh*

Now that I have released all my epic-rantness….

I think vacation has melted my brain, because my blogging sucks lately.

And I am going to Savannah, Georgia again on Tuesday. We always go to River Street, and we’ll probably go to Paula Dean’s restaurant for lunch. I WANT ME SUM HOECAKES!!! Those things are so fucking good… Last time we went the only spot we got was once we got there, and we had just eating breakfast because we thought we would have to wait a long time, as the time before we did. So this year I’ve decided that I’m just going to bring a poptart with me to eat. Problem solved.

And apparently my family just met Johnny Depp’s 8th cousin at the pool today. He said he doesn’t talk to him much, and he couldn’t get an autograph…

Damn.

Well, only a few more days left. 5 more days, to be exact.

Joy.

  1. Hi,
    I am 18 years old and I just finished my first semester of University. Since the dawn of puberty I have been steadily gaining weight and failing to lose it. The past four months have been especially difficult. I was checking out your blog just to examine the alternative, ie. finally accepting that I am just not small and it is a waste of my time to worry about it. Honestly, I don’t think I expecting to like the “alternative” point of view, I think I was hoping it would inspire some weightloss. Not so much, you come off so eloquent and likeable- nothing I could possibly disagree with. Thank you for writing and enlightening the small-minded such as myself.
    Good luck with everything!
    Jane.
    p.s. I hope you know you’re wicked beautiful as well.
