Sex in the City

I went and saw it last night. I went and saw the midnight showing of Sex in the City last night, well okay this morning. Besides the really annoying drunk girls behind us it was not unlike every other midnight showing of a movie I’ve seen. They really hardcore fans were there [ie: Tia, Ashley and Shana] playing their trivia game while waiting for the movie to start and then there were the people who just liked going to midnight showings, or were avid watchers of the show.

The movie was good, not midnight showing good, because I was SO tired at work today but it was good. I know they packed A LOT into two hours but I think they did a sufficient job of moving it a long without making you feel like you were being dropped with problem after problem after problem.

Samantha, obviously being my favorite of the four girls seemed to disappoint. She wasn’t Samantha enough for me.

Carrie, being my second favorite girl, [but least favorite actress] actually surprised me by NOT annoying the crap out of me.

Miranda, being my third favorite…I really liked her character in them movie. In the tv show Miranda was kind of just ‘eh’ for me but in the movie she became real.

Charlotte…she’s still annoying as hell but you gotta love her. It’s funny how Charlotte is the girl I relate to the most but she’s my least favorite. I think Charlotte definitely got the win for the girl who made me laugh the hardest though.

All in all I’m glad I saw it before my trip, otherwise I would’ve had to wait until like the 10th or 11th of June and I know I would’ve heard things and read things and then might’ve been let down but now I saw it and I’m happy. Daphne Rubin Vega was cute in the bathroom scene :)

I am not the person you think I am, I am only the person I know I am

Do you ever have those moments where you feel like nothing can go right? No matter how hard you try or what you do you will never succeed? That you were meant to fail?

It seems like lately no matter what I want something gets in the way of me getting it. It’s getting harder and harder to push through the obstacles but honestly I feel like I can get through them. What kind of life would I be living if everything was easy and I managed to get through my life with no obstacles and no questioning of my own strength and endurance.

I want to write. I want to be a professional writer more then anything I’ve ever wanted in my entire life. More then I want marriage, or a family. To write for me is to breathe. I can’t remember a time in my life when I didn’t want to be a writer. I have memories of being 12 years old telling people I wanted to be a writer when I was older. I know its hard and I know I am not making it as much as I should be right now but honestly I know I can get there someday. I won’t give up on it. If I’m simply writing my blog or writing my journal I know I can write and express myself. I just hope one day it’ll actually mean something.

Well at least someone other then myself.

Hey Farva what's the name of that restaurant you like with all the goofy shit on the walls and the mozzarella sticks?

When did the word “shenanigans” come back into fashion? I think a generation of Super Trooper kids have began bringing back the word in hopes of it delivering a good laugh. I mean I know Super Troopers is a relatively “new” movie but more and more people are experiencing it and sharing it with friends and family, as they should. I SWEAR TO GOD I’M GOING TO PISTOL WHIP THE NEXT GUY WHO SAYS SHENANIGANS! But seriously I think I have heard the word shenanigans more times in the last month then I have in my entire life. I think I saw Super Troopers about two years ago, and even since then I haven’t noticed the word more but really in the last month its been everywhere.

yes...final answer

I’ve always said A Chorus Line was my favorite Broadway Show, but I’m revising, I forget a lot of times that Blast! or sometimes known as blast is a Broadway show. So ACL is my favorite musical, but Blast! or blast is my favorite Broadway show. I’ve seen Blast! once, blast once and I’ve seen The Power of Blast over 50 times, which was a 30 minute show at Disney’s California Adventure Park consisting of Bolero, Battery Battle, Lemon techno, Land of Make Believe and Malaguena which ran from November 22, 2001 till the end of 2002. I promise you this show is amazing. Well if you enjoy music, high energy performances and really talented kids. The current touring company isn’t nearly as awesome as the original cast which were the people I had seen everytime before Friday night. The tour kids were awesome but the colorguard dropped six times during our performance and the dancing seemed a little forced but I can’t even begin to imagine how draining the show is. The color wheel on the dvd is much better then the current live version too. The cast of the current touring is a lot smaller then the original Broadway cast too. Okay so some positives, they were still high energy, the music was phenomenal and they added some new quirky laughs. If the show tours in your area, go see it. I mean if you like that sort of amazing show kind of things. And for all you West Side Story loving kids, don’t count on Gee Officer Krupke in the touring show, cause its not :(. The only REAL bad thing about my experience on Friday was the kids sitting behind me, they were kicking my seat, yelling things like “dude, sweet and awesome” non stop. I get it, you’re excited, you are happy to be there and you think they are awesome performers but honestly, I wasn’t at a high school gymnasium seeing my high school performing their drum line show, I was at a freaking Broadway show, I expected a little bit a well behaved audience. By the time intermission came, I was about ready to slap a ho.

Don’t do it. Don’t go see Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey’s new movie Fool’s Gold.

I mean its really bad. One of the main characters, Alexis Dziena is such an idiot, she might very well be a good actress but seriously in the whole movie I wanted to smack her, or throw her off the boat. Seriously I think I hated the movie because of her. Well for that and the fact it wasn’t very good. I thought there was going to be more of an adventure and chase, not. Disappointing in the highest, well not really because I didn’t think it was going to be very good anyways.

where's my time machine

There was a time not too long ago, when I was in high school and I was into all the cool underground music. I used to go to shows in my dark clothes, chipped black nail polish and torn up chuck taylor’s. I listened to bands like Atreyu, Avenged Sevenfold and As I Lay Dying. They are HUGE now, they have huge fan bases and quite the following. I don’t even know who these bands are anymore. I stopped being apart of that “scene” shortly after graduation, I had to get a real job, I wore heels, clean nails and pleated skirts with sweaters. Sometimes you just have to grow up right? Maybe. I’m getting back into the scene and I will admit it, its so cliché but I miss old Atreyu, Avenged Sevenfold and As I Lay Dying. Hell AILD was from my hometown, we used to party with them after small shows. I really do miss their old sound and I kind of liked knowing about them and loving them when not many other people did, I know its selfish but I didn’t want them to become Mtv generated kids. I’ll be happy for them, but is it wrong to call them sellouts? But then again did anyone see me trading my tickets to punk shows for tickets for Broadway musicals? I suppose they might call me a sellout.

music makes the world go 'round

Did you catch the pre-game show this weekend? Paula Adul is trying to make a come back and quite honestly I liked her performance. I mean obviously she wasn’t really singing but the song is catchy and fun. I did kind of want to shake a her a little and tell her “Yes Paula your performance was ‘Britney like’ and tween poppy but no Paula this generation doesn’t like you anymore then the late 80’s early 90’s generation liked you.” Props for trying. Yes I’m sad the Patriots lost. Football sucks anyways!


Yesterday afternoon I went to see “The Great American Trailer Park Musical” it was hilarious. Raunchy, witty and downright trashy and I loved every minute of it. With lines like “They was having a rendezvous, which is French for, they’re f*cking” and “not all hicks marry their cousins, well at least not without a pre-nup.” I really couldn’t help but laugh. I’ve had the cast recording for sometime now and have listened to it briefly but now I am hooked. The talent on tour was really good too, the girl who plays Pippy has an amazing voice and her part in the Finale blew my socks off, well it would have blown my socks off if I had been wearing socks. Anyways…I highly recommend it, but not for children under 15 or anyone who is easily offended.

Oh and did anyone see the New Kids on the Block were trying to make a comeback? I think it screams disaster. And will they change their names to the old men on the retirement floor?

you were the popular one...right?

Happy Birthday Mr. Timberlake. I’ll forever be grateful you were apart of my childhood. Nsync reunion in the future? It’s nice to dream.

In other going ons life is progressively moving all around us. Let’s take sometime to take a deep breathe and reflect on a moment we treasure. Okay times up, back to the real world [and not the MTV show, that’s not in fact real at all]. Back to work.
