Lindsey the Whiner

I had to post it here, this just shows what a frikkin' crybaby she is.

Lohan takes a diva detour
By William Keck, USA TODAY
HOLLYWOOD — It was the Lohan 500 Sunday at the world premiere of Disney's Herbie: Fully Loaded as 18-year-old Lindsay Lohan raced down a black-carpeted stretch of Hollywood Boulevard with the speed of Mario Andretti, passing 17 VW Herbie Beetles and leaving reporters in the dust.

All better: Lohan wanted to hear her song in Herbie: Fully Loaded.
By Ric Francis, AP

After a screening of the film, which opens Wednesday, Lohan stomped out into the lobby of the El Capitan Theatre huffing, "I'm so (angry)!" Her team of handlers hurried her into a bathroom for a 12-minute cooling down period.

At a block-party carnival after the screening, Lohan was hugged by her mother, Dina, and received compliments from co-star Matt Dillon, before explaining her outburst.

"I was upset when I didn't hear my song (First) during the race scene, where I originally thought it would be," Lohan said while signing autographs. "I was like, 'Whoaaa,' because nobody stays to hear the song in the closing credits.

"So I ran out."

First is especially important to her because "I recorded it right before I got sick (from exhaustion) and went to the hospital. And then I shot the video for it and re-sprained my ankle. I pushed myself to get it done for the movie when I probably should have waited."

Dillon had helped return a smile to her freckled face by telling the teen: "You're beautiful. You are." Lohan wore a watermelon-colored Valentino country dress with white polka dots that brought to mind the 1960s, when the very first Herbie movie (The Love Bug) made its debut.

Despite her public falling out with her father, Michael, who has had a series of run-ins with the law, Lohan offered him a warm Father's Day message: "I hope he's well. God bless him, and I love him."

Michael Keaton plays Lohan's dad in the film and said he often had to step in as her father figure on set.

"The boys in the movie gave her a hard time," Keaton said.

Lohan confirmed with a laugh: "They totally tortured me. They turned the electricity off in my trailer, and they'd bang on the walls."

Lohan's svelte figure has been scrutinized in the tabloids of late. But when a waiter brought a fully loaded baked potato, she said, "That is my lunch" and added that on Saturday, "I was at the pool with my brother having sundaes."

She's 18.............

I'd expect 12 year olds and 15 year olds whining like that, and her age? while I've met my fair share of whiners like her of same age..she takes the cake for the whine-award. She should be happy she even got to be in that crap movie, and for that matter having a 'celeb status' and she's whining about her stupid song?

What. EVAaaaaaa.

now, another story that was TOOO Good to not make it on the Fanta§tic Voyage

IMDb.com/WENN:

Nicholson Spices Up Scorsese Movie
Jack Nicholson helped re-write the script for his new movie with legendary director Martin Scorsese, because he felt the sex scenes needed spicing up. Nicholson stars alongside Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio in thriller The Departed, a remake of Hong Kong movie Infernal Affairs, due for release next year. According to reports, the actor wanted to make his character - an Irish-American gangster - a little more like himself, and more of an animal in the bedroom. A source tells the New York Daily News, "Jack didn't feel there was enough Jack in his character. Jack actually did some of the writing himself." The insider adds of the sex scenes, "Jack suggested using a (prosthetic appendage). He also wanted to dust the a** of one of the actresses with cocaine. Marty said, 'Go for it!'" A Warner Bros spokesman adds, "It's not at all uncommon for dialogue to be fine-tuned during production. Everyone is extremely pleased with the way this shoot is proceeding."

LAWL!!! this iS HYSTERICAL!!

Good o'l Jack, I also found someone's reply hilarious on the thread this story was posted on.. it reads..

Jack is still the coolest motherfucker in Hollywood. Even though he is a dirty old man, he is still a baller in my book.

Just what I needed.

I have had a headache the whole day today, when I woke up I took two advils, and then one in the afternoon. It's coming back, I'm going to keep this short though.

For the past few days, starting Friday, when I visited my college for info..I've been thinking a lot about what I want to be. It's been on my mind a lot, and I know I want to be in the filmmaking business...but I just got finished with watching AFI's Lifetime Achievement award for George Lucas, and in the end Lucas said, that movies is his passion, he loves all movies, every kind, from every country..and that without them he wouldn't know what to do.

and that is exactly how I feel. Movies are MY passion. I love them, and I want to make them..and that is exactly what I needed.

I felt a sense of relief. Here's to College baby, and film school later on in life.

BATMAN BEGINS REVIEW

BATMAN BEGINS


I saw Batman Begins @ midnight 6/15 – 12:01 a.m. show. I came to the theater at 11 p.m. and there were about 6 people there. A family of 5 in the center aisle more towards the bottom, and 1 kid sitting all the way up on top where my favorite seating spot is! He was holding seats for someone as well, so my friend and I just sat below them but right in the middle of the row, just how I love it. Surprised that such a small amount of people showed up, I said to myself, “that's it, no one is coming”. Little did I know that by 11:30pm the room was filling up faster than Tom filled his cup after Team America: World Police was over (At which time I was not present because at the time being I was @ Mt. Rushmore) by 12 a.m. about 99% of the 322 seats (yes I counted) were filled!

The “Pre-Show Countdown” started to roll, and they showed us some ads. Once it was over, they probably showed us about 15 minutes worth of trailers – which included “Stealth” and “War of the Worlds”.

Finally, I found myself staring at the silver screen, witnessing grey colored logo of “WB” and a newly created “DC Comics” logo over a musical cue that sounded more like a flap of bats’ wings!

Batman Begins, and my review starts.


This is GOLD, This is IT. This is WHY, I love going to the movies! MOVIES like Batman Begins, which do not take storytelling for granted, but instead worship it like gold on a golden platter! Christopher Nolan and David S. Goyer - have created something all the previous 4 Batman films combined could not even get close to accomplishing!

I will tell you straight up that I had not read every comic book of Batman; in fact I had not read any Batman comic books. I had not read every single graphic novel of Batman, and I, did not love Batman as much as all the fans worldwide have. But let me tell you, that it does not take all those things to really appreciate and understand who Batman really is. I have only seen/read so much of Batman before this film that it made me realize how much more this character stands out from all the other comic book superheroes that were created.

This film is EXACTLY what a Batman movie should be. It's been done justice to the character the way Burton, Schumacher or any other person who had ever laid their hands upon this character prior to Goyer and Nolan, could have never dreamt of.

This is the ULTIMATE, MOST FAITHFUL adaptation that has ever graced this world of Batman, EVER.

There is a scene @ the shipyard docks in which Batman makes his move on the thugs that are putting shipments of drugs into containers. He seriously makes these guys fear of the ‘unknown’ they don’t know what’s going on and they get taken out one by one. The scene is just so compelling! When we first see Batman playing “cat & mouse” with these thugs, my eyes and mouth were wide open. Batman has his way with Falcone and in the end straps him to a large light signal which when looking at the sky casts a shadow of a bat!

This takes me to yet another scene. Falcone is now in the Arkham Asylum for the criminally insane. This is one scene that truly shocked me!!!

Dr. Crane: “Would you like to see my mask?” “I use it to experiment on my patients”

*he sprays hallucinogenic toxin on Carmine Falcone*
Carmine Falcone screams like a mad man, it cuts to the shots of Scarecrow in a terrifying deformed mask – this is how victims see him under the influence of the hallucinogen. This is a scene after which I just sat still, thinking to myself “What. The. #$&^$*&! JUST. HAPPENED!?” I was SHOCKED beyond belief.

The movie rocked harder than a METALLICA concert. I loved the grounded realism. If you compare and contrast Burton/Schumacher’s “gothic” themed Gotham City against Batman Begins’ “present day corrupted, filth-ridden city” you will see it for yourself that Batman Begins is a much more believable film than all the previous four. It makes you feel that something like this in the world can truly exist and EXISTS! And that there is a person out there without any superhero powers that takes matters into his own hands, dedicating his life to fight injustice, is trying to save and get rid of scum in the city to prevent more murders like that of his parents’ Christopher Nolan, once showed a screening of Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner to his film crew before they started filming the movie. After the film he said to the whole crew, "This is how we're going to make Batman." He not only stayed true to his words, he achieved them. The Narrows of Gotham just look downright filthy. It’s so realistically portrayed. I loved every second of it.

As a recently converted Batman fan, having read the graphic novels upon this movie is inspired. (“The Long Halloween” & “Dark Victory” by Jeph Loeb) I was amazed, I thought the film was incredible.

10/10


I was in disbelief of what I saw.

One time back in the summer of 2003, I had finally seen a movie I have been dying to see. Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines. I am a big fan of Terminator. When I saw it. I literally gave it a 10/10 and I raved and raved about how good it is and how much better it is than T2. I jumped to conclusions, and as time went by and I read more and more opinions and thoughts of others on T3 I looked back and thought "I can’t believe I thought this was greater than everything" And then a movie like Batman Begins comes out and you think it truly is, the greatest – and I think I’m right this time. This is a movie not only Batman fans have been waiting for, but a movie people like me, whose favorite movie of all time was T2 since I was a little boy, have been waiting for. Batman Begins can truly stand on its’ own as a “film” not just a character adaptation of a superhero, even though it is the foundation. You ignore all the comic books, novels, merchandise, capes, TV shows, cartoons – and you see this movie as a stand alone. You will appreciate it just as much as you appreciate your favorite movie of all time.

Gordon: “I never said ‘thank you
Batman: “And you’ll never have to” [Batman jumps off the building and glides off into the darkness]

A shot of Gordon smiling.

Fade to black

When the screen faded to black, and the credit "A Christopher Nolan Film" appeared, I erupted in applause, I was the first one to applause and I’m glad I did it because I didn’t think twice; I just loved every second of it. Several people joined in for about 10 seconds! People loved it. My audience was mostly composed of teenagers ages 17+, some adults, and people in their mid 20's to 30's

People laughed at every joke that was intended to be humorous.

I had not watched a single movie with so much time having my mouth and eyes, wide open. Every scene in which the Batman was present on screen, my expression was of someone who had seen a ghost.

Scarecrow definitely needs to come back, and it seems like he is bound to. And Cillian Murphy is the man.

Incredible movie. INCREDIBLE

Depressions hits...

I can never understand my mind, how it works. For some ODD reason, everytime something great is over, depression hits me. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY. It happenes everytime!

I saw Batman Begins at 12:01am midnight this morning, and It was the most greatest feeling I had felt.

I was so excited, when I got home at 2:45, I stayed up until 5am, and went to sleep when the sky was getting lit up, the sun was coming up soon. I got woken up by some stupid construction on our neighbors roof @ 9am. So in total I got 4 hours of sleep. Though it's all good.

I stayed up the whole of morning and afternoon just surfing in between Batman-on-Film.com and JoBlo.com

It has hit me hardcore that I've seen the most incredible adaptation of a superhero film by FAR.

I had read "The Long Halloween" the novel upon which this movie is inspired, and watching BB was like seeing The Long Halloween come to life.

- The thing I don't understand is, why I get so depressed right now. I think the saying is true "all great things must come to an end" so this thing came to an end, I've finally seen it - and for me..right now, every new movie just seems horrible, like I don't want to watch anything but BB over and over and over again.

I guess it's that huge excitement that i've had anticipating Batman Begins for two years. And now that it's come to an end, I feel there's nothing to look forward to, I have absolutely no interest right now. I don't know what it is, I dont know if it's the day, the weather, the clouds. I don't know. It feels so weird. Am I going insane? or am I just a huge fanboy wanting MORE?

I've said something once before back in 2003, when I saw T3, another film I had been anticipating since 2001. It went like this: "I wish I could go back and experience everything all over again" that is exactly the feeling I'm having now. That very first time when you see something you've been waiting for a long time...that is the most exciting feeling a person can have.

I personally am now feeling a tiny bit better thanks to this blog, because I express my feelings here..and I believe that, hey what the heck, it's only the beginning! the movie just came out..and so what if I have not seen it again today..I am STILL going to see it a few more times! with different friends, and with more people, also with my family. So there's nothing to be depressed about.

Though, I hope you understand that - I guess that's just the person I am, my feelings are easy to hurt.

I SAW IT!!!!! I SAW IT!!! I SAW IT!!!!

OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG!@@@@@434!@!!! OMG@@@@!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


THAT IS IT! I have seen it ALL! I can die a happy fuckin' MAN! WOW!

WOW! WOW !!! WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!! This is BEAUTIFUL! !

OH WOW, I can't BELIEVE IT, I CANNOT! I LOVED IT Soooooooooooooooooooooo MUCH!

I can't stop that fanboy mode, I just can't.

Gosh, !!! I cannot even get to typing up any reviews of this, I am AMAZED BEYOND BELIEF! My mind is replaying the whole film in my head! This is GOLD, This is IT. This is WHY, I love going to the movies! MOVIES like Batman Begins, who do not take storytelling for granted, but instead worship it like gold on a golden platter! Christopher Nolan and David S. Goyer - have created something all the previous 4 Batman movies combined could not even get close to accomplishing!

I will tell you straight up. That I have not read every comic book of Batman. I have not read every single graphic novel of Batman, and I, did not love Batman as much as you guys have. But let me tell you, that it does not take all those things to really appreciate and understand what Batman really is. I have only seen so little of Batman before this film before I realized how much MORE this character stands out from all the others comic book heroes that were ever created.

And this film, my friends is what EXACTLY Batman should be. It's been done justice to the character the way Burton, Schumacher or any person who had ever touched their hands on this character prior to Goyer and Nolan, could never dream of.

This is the ULTIMATE, MOST FAITHFUL adaptation that has ever graced this world of Batman, EVER.

10 outta f'n 10!

Just wow, wait til you friggin see that scene with Batman @ the docks for the first time, and wait til you see the FIRST time Scarecrow releases his hallucinogen (the scene is brief) but it had me fuckin SHOCKED.

I came an hour in advance, at 11pm, and there were about 7 people there and I thought no one would come.. but holy cow, the thing was sold out like this was Star Wars Ep. 3 mostly composed of teenagers years 17+, some adults, and people in their 20's - 30's

People laughed at every JOKE that was intended to be humorous.

I have not watched a single film with this much time having my mouth opened with wide open eyes. EVERY scene the Batman was present on screen my expression was LITERALLY this. ( http://www.socomjunky.com/forum/images/smilies/whoa.gif ) (well, except my jaw didnt go all the way down to the floor, but I think you get the visual, and when I say literally like that - please take me SERIOUS! because only that will make you EVEN MORE EXCITED to see this!!!

When the screen went to black, and the credit "A Christopher Nolan Film" came on, I ERRUPTED in applause, I was the FIRST one to applaude, and SEVERAL people joined in for about 10 seconds! People loved it. Also when we all came outside, my friend's friend was there, and he showed him what was in his cup, and it was RUM.. LOL, I then just shook his hand and asked him what did you think of the film? and he said "IT WAS AWESOME MAN!" but he was DRUNKED out of his SKULL lol.

The Day After

Today was the day after graduation. I don't know if it still has hit me just YET that I'm out of high school - but I know that it was an exciting day yesterday.

I was staying up later last night (this morning) I started watching Collateral on HBO, and I watched til the part where Vincent is on his last victim. My eyes were automatically shutting down baby. I went to sleep around 1:30am or somewhere around there.

I woke up EARLY though, at 9am - I don't know why, I guess I am not used to the early awakenings. It's alright though, saves a day for me. Makes the thing last longer.

I watched a little bit of Men In Black as I woke up, until the end of it. Great movie. Always fun. Sequel blew. I played some Counter-Strike: Source, then helped vaccuum the downstairs. Then I just spent a lot of time upstairs on my computer. I don't know - I think I'm addicted to being on a computer too much, I now barely watch TV! I feel like a loser now. Complain complain complain!!

Buuut, the good thing is, school's over I have now time to do some pre-production work on my short 8 minute film "Valediction" I will start storyboarding the scenes and scouting for locations, I need actors too ! I have a few friends who would probably be my leads, what can ya do if you cant find anybody elese!? you hire your friends =D

-- [ I was looking through the pictures my mom took during graduation and SURPRISINGLY!!! my mom actually took a picture of the girl I like, the one in my government class. That's awesome.

Here it is.

I AM THE GRADUATE

June 11th, 2005.

Igor Vladimirovich Nedvalyuk has completed all the requirements to graduate C.D. Hylton High School

and guys, that will go down in history as the most memorable event of my entire life. If I had known how amazing this night would be before I moved to VA, while I was still in MOUND. I would not hesitate to move to VA. I think this was so well done, Mound couldn't have beaten this. I'm sorry to say, but it's true. They made you feel like you was worth something. Amazing speeches, truly thoughtprovoking, and beautiful. Emotional. Happy!

I can't stress the word "GREAT" enough, to explain how amazing this night truly was. Even though I attended Hylton for 6 months, I think I've attached to it well enough to care.

Truly an amazing night, I will forever remember this. FOREVER.


CLASS OF 2005, CLASS of 9/11

graduation rehearsal

So today I woke up ONCE again early on..even though the rehearsal wasn't til 9am. The reason I had to go early again is because I didn't have a ride there, and my Mom was offerring it.

So when I got to school I went to the library and read magazines. Read a good article on Tom Cruise in 'People' mag. Pretty coo' I feel glad for the guy, he's a fool in love. So he's excited. Saw him on Leno the night before. He seems like he loves the fans, he interacts with them when they go on a commercial break.

Anyways. People started gathering in the lunchroom and then I'll skip the whole deal. Once we were all in our rows organized in alphabetical order they started going through the information to prepare us for the thing.

Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

It took about a total of 3 hours that we were inside. Kinda long, but you know it's still fun. They were practicing us on standing up and sitting down on cue and some people would fuck it up. So the main speaker: "No no no no no" hehe. They would do it til they get it right. People just laughed about it.

Then we practiced entering and exiting the auditorium. Oh man, once we're all standing in lines..they're pretty dang long. We had to do that twice throughout the whole time we were there.

After it was all over, I found my friend Amin and we hung out a little, talking with another friend. Me taking pictures. Then at like 1pm my mom showed up - apparently at work the conditioner was broken so they let her go home, so she ended up picking up me 'n driving my friend home. It was pretty fun day I'd say. Sometimes I don't know why I complain when I get woken up to go to school. Heheheheh.

BATMAN BEGINS MIDNIGHT SHOW!!!

I got my ticket!!!! wow!! I went to see a movie with a friend tonight, we saw "The Longest Yard" which was pretty dang kool!!! man! and I was RELIEVED to see that they had advance tickets for the midnight show of Batman Begins.

Here is my proof! CLICK HERE

Wow, words cant describe the excitement I'm feeling. All the people I've made contact with, ALL know I'm obsessing over this film, I've been waiting two years..I DIDNT even do this for T3, buying a ticket for a midnight show. This is totally the right movie. There is just too much to say about it to make people understand.

Finished!!!

the Last final Exam was today, for Algebra II. My stepdad woke me up at 6am today, and I actually thought I was already late - I thought it was 7am, hehe.

So I got to school at 6:15am, this is the ALL TIME earliest I've ever gotten to school. There wasn't a soul in the school that I saw. A few minutes later faculty and some folks started coming in. Not until about 7am when school was getting loud.

I was looking for my Algebra teacher to help me with some shi..on the final review sheet, but instead another lady teacher has helped me.

The thing that pissed me off. When I finally got my final, like 90% of the test was different from the review. It really ticked me off. I did as MANY problems as I could, and in the last 10 minutes I just started guessing. Gosh, I hope I dont fail for the year. This is such a stressful week for me.

When I came up to give the test to the teacher, I asked him what my grade was..he didnt have a comp around so he couldnt check, but he told me I'll pass, confidently. I felt a sense of relief, cuz I know I had a B second semester. Plus we had a presentation and I did a part so hopefully that raised the grade.

Man, it was so stupid today ONCE AGAIN. As I returned my Government book to Mr. Deal I went out the back door of the school and started frickin' RUNNING around the school cuz I know my friend was waiting for me. THen guess what, this security guy friggin in the car, stops me and takes me back, and give me this BS talk, "you know your note supposed to run out of this door" I told im Im new and shit, and noone told me that, then he started BS'in even more. Then he took me to som stupid shit office. There these two friggin women gave me BS, so in the end when I finally left the building through their front door. I couldnt find my friend anywhere.

So I walked home in 93F degree weather. What a memorable last day in High School huh???

Tuesday, June 07, 2005

What an awful day.

Today was a completely horrible day for me.
So I'm finished with my Government final, time to go to 6th period. I go up to my Algebra II teacher, and say "so we're taking a final right?" and he tells me thats tomorrow.
Apparently, I MIXED UP THE CLASSES TODAY!!!!
Instead of math, I actually had English final, and let me tell you. When I was taking the test, I had the biggest fear of my entire life, hit me. I was never this nervous in my entire life about a test. Every question I read, nothing rang a bell. I came to a point where I just came up to my teacher and said "Can I talk to you outside, please?"
when we went outside, I paused for like 5 seconds, I didnt know how to tell her, because I was afraid of her response, though I explained I mixed up the two classes, and that I was going to dedicate my whole day today to reviewing for the final for English, (because I thought it's tomorrow) she seemed understanding, she was even willing to let me take it tomorrow, she wasnt alll like "Oh thats not my problem" she listened. Though I still asked her what my grade was, and when we went back she looked it up and gave me a note, it had B for first semester and C for second. and wrote "just do your best" but then I just started guessing. the finals is 20% of my grade, and I'm scared to death that I'm going to fail for the year. This is going to be devastating.
I've NEVER liked their idiotic block scheduling! they're so confusing!!!!!.
Man, im angry, tomorrow is going to be my final for Algebra II, and I hope hope HOPE I dont fail that, im going to review today the whole day, because, No way I want to fail that. No way.

So tomorrow is THE last day of my high school career
EVER. It's kind of ironic ? that tomorrow I won't be
really enjoying my last day of school..but rather be
thinking of how to answer each question on the test
RIGHT.

Adios! wish me luck, sure would need some.

The Final Day.

Today, I got up nice and early at 6:15am and took a shower. I got my clothes ready the night before. It was my Calvin Klein shirt, jeans, and a nice black sweater. I got to school around 7:25 right when the bell rang.

I took my ART 2 final in Mrs. Magneson's class, which is my Photography class. I didn't get to see the kids in my ART 2 class today, don't know when I'll see them. Ever again.

When it was time to go to Astronomy class, to take the final - I arrived. First thing I did was went to the rest room after the bell rang. When I came back. Mr. Walden, the great Astronomy teacher gave us a little speech. It was emotional, he talked about how the feeling of leaving high school will be a mixed. We will have a great memory of it, and we will also feel relieved that we're finally done with it. He was getting teary-eyed a little bit, and it was noticeable.

- You know, I agree. In the beginning, I didn't think I would really care for this school. No matter what I've said about this school, I really can't deny the fact that I've become emotionally attached to it. I will not lie. C.D. Hylton is actually a great school. It's got great funding, they have many clubs, sports, great stadium, great teachers. GREAT Gym, Much better than what we have in Mound.

I got to know a few people here and they're really fun people. I don't have many friends in the school, and there are a couple people I wish I would get to know a lot better. But part of it is because I'm not a really outgoing person. It's sad to me, because of my shyness, I didn't experience high school as I would like to. I really do wish I had more friends, both in MOUND and in HYLTON. It's like in The Girls Next Door, in the opening scenes - it feels like that. I feel like I've missed out a lot.

*Sigh*

You know, saying goodbye is truly the hardest thing to do. Even though school is not OFFICIALLY over, all ive been thinkin about today is how much ima miss school. Usually every Friday I'm like, "Oh yeah, school's done, NO SKOOL for two days woohoo" now Im kind of thinkin, shit...3 more days and it's out of my life forever. You just get emotionally attached to places, people...and it's hard to let go. That's us. That's human.

Today was the big graduation for MY '05 MOUND class, Tommy boy and Billy are officially GRADUATES! I didn't know how it went, I don't know what went on - but I'm sure...it's one of the best events of their lives. Being finished with something, getting a recognition for it. I wish the best of luck for my friends and I will be seeing them this year...more specifically, October.

June has Arrrrriiived.

Wooooo Hoooooooo!

and this is my favorite month, as you all by now should KNOW.

Two reasons why!

1. We all know school is over by time it's the first week of June
2. SUMMER BEGINS. That's right I dont go by that stupid scientifical way of theirs. I've been taught in Ukraine that seasons always start on the first day of every 3 months. So, June 1 is OFFICIALLY SUMMER, and I like to think of it that way, not JUNE 21st or 22nd whatever they like to call it "official" bah.

Today was an alright day in school. Basically no pressure on homework, just going over the finals reviews. I got my review sheet for ART II, and it's EASY AS Piece of Poontang Pie for ALEX...I can ace it - and. I. WILL.

next hour was Astronomy, and here's a funny thing. There is one black kid right behind me. He's the same size as Guy, just..you know. he's black. At least Guy is 101010120394849 x times smarter than his ass. So. He never does ANYTHING in the class and has a MAJOR issue with the teacher, so instead he just listens to his rap music on the MP3 player. The guy's a joke, everybody in the class knows this, they just dont say anything. So he turned up his music real loud (NOT the first time) while the teacher was talking. And this was in the beginning of the class. So our teacher was talking about Deep Throat, and the Nixon Watergate scandal.

So the teacher finally has it and says, "You know I've had it, I told you before to turn it off and you dont listen" <--not exactly what he said, but u know. It's what I remember. So the guy behind me snaps, and yells at the teacher "I dont undehstaaaaand why it iiiis yoouuu thaaank thaat the muusic keeeps geetttin' louda!" lol, the Teacher just presses a button..they got some intercom kind of thing installed in each room. And he called for Security to escort Richard..lol that was his name.

HAHA. Man, then the guy is all actin lame and in the end walks out TRYING to slam the door behind but the Astronomy teacher caught the tip of it and tried to open it back but the foo' held it back and laughed..then after a few seconds just left, What a piece of jackshit. Maan.

And this was the last class that we were going to have with the teacher, so I guess that was his way of "having enough" of that dude's BS so he just felt like gettin him out of class somehow!

Oh well.. It's all good, idiots save the worlds from becoming boring. So I was entertained to some extent.

Well what do we have here? [ Beauty & The Geek ]

I just had a quick looksee at the page, and it appears that there are "two" geeks from Minnesota. Oh C'mon!!! Now all MN is going to be known for is not only the 10,000+ lakes, but, the "two geeks from beauty & the beast" sheesh. =)

It doesn't matter though, cuz I'm watching it tonight at 8pm.
