The Eyes Of A Spectator

So last night I saw Iron Man 2, and it was pretty good. The effects were pretty good, and the story was pretty good too, and after the end of the movie, if you stay, there's a little preview of something that'll make you really excited if you're a comic book nerd like me. I don't really want to get much into it, but it's great, and I think you should go see Iron Man 2, if you saw the first one and liked it. It wasn't as good as the first one, but then again how many sequels are as good as the original?

It's been a while again. I don't know what's putting me off from making videos anymore, but there's only really one person who cares about it that much I think, and I saw him yesterday. Some people are already back from college, and I still have a month to go. It's pretty crazy. A couple of my friends are coming back in a week or two, but at least I'm still around so I can see them anyway.

So I started a band, if you can call it that, with 2 other people, Ronnie and Mike. I'm the guitarist and singer, while Mike is the bassist, and Ronnie is the keyboardist. That's all we have for right now, and I don't think we need much else except for a drummer.

It's been exactly a week since I've done my last blog, and I'm sorry for those who wait in anticipation for any news from me, even though I doubt you people exist. Anyway, I'm back, and the reason I didn't do any blogs was sort of because I was busy almost all the time.

Yesterday I had a really good day. I cooked these wonderful pancakes for mike and we both ate them along with my dad. They turned out pretty good even though the first 3 were ruined because we thought the surface was stick free. The stove we have came with this pancake maker thing that you just put over the burner, and it's flat and stick free.

Man, it's hot outside.

Yeah, sadly, I won't be partaking in April Fool's day, that's the internets job, and they do a pretty good job. I'm talking to you, Topeka. If you don't get that, go to google.com.

So I came back from ICON last night, and it was a lot of fun. I met many people, saw many interesting things, and it was just fun to be there. I went to a couple tournaments, had my laughs, stayed with friends at a hotel, and got a couple of things.

So on Friday, I played Frisbee with a bunch of people. It was kind of fun, but everybody who played wasn't really that good, and there were only a couple people who were actually good at it, and we were all on the same team, and eventually won 7 to 0. So it was a good thing that we were playing, we just all need to work on getting better is all. After Frisbee, we then went to a nearby bench and starting playing Magic, which I know sounds lame, but I know had some fun, I really like the game.

I've been playing a lot more sports recently, and it's fantastic. It's been so beautiful outside and the weather is just gorgeous enough that I can play frisbee and handball in just a shirt. I've been having a blast these past couple of days and getting in plenty of physical activity. I did rough out some injuries, but nothing substantial, and I'm a little sore, but that's probably from doing a ridiculous amount of exercise. I played maybe 3 hours of frisbee, and then after that, a couple hours of handball.

So today I went to this place called All-American Burger, and there's only one of its kind. It's in Massapequa, out in Long Island, and it's a long ways away from most locations, but it's really worth it. Every burger there is around 1 to 3 dollars, and all of them are almost the size of your face. My friends and I got maybe 5 pounds of burgers for only 35 dollars maybe, and with fries and drinks. It's incredibly cheap and good.

Yeah, so it's me here, but I don't have much to talk about. I was with a couple friends and they were going to have fun and have a get together. They used to be a big group in high school but some of them came back for different reasons, but I opted to come back home because I have school tomorrow.

So today I saw one of my friends, Peter, who I usually never see. I have been seeing more of him recently, and that's definitely a great thing. Thinking about it now, I have been seeing a couple of friends more often than before, and I'd like that to continue. I never really hung out with some people from the olden days, and that's really a shame, because some of them are really good people.

Cop Out is a movie that was directed by one of my favorite directors of all time, Kevin Smith. It wasn't written by the guy though, so it didn't urn out nearly as good as it could have been. It also isn't in the New Jersey universe with Jay and Silent Bob, or Ben Affleck or people like that. Jason Mewes is in it, but he isn't playing the comic jackass genius that he is in all of the other movies.

If you read my blogs you should have known that I was going to come out with a review for Cop Out yesterday, but I didn't. Why you ask, why have you left me with no video for me to watch because I have nothing else to do?

So yesterday I went to a movie called The Last Station. I was thinking of seeing it, but it wandered off of my mind, and I forgot about it. When I saw a commercial for it, which was very odd considering it was an independent movie, I thought it was about a radio station that was the last radio station to play a genre of music or something like that. I was way off, incredibly off. I'm pretty sure radio stations didn't even exist during that time period.

DragonBall Evolution is a 2009 live action film adaptation with the same name. The anime was amazing and is highly regarded as one of the greatest animes of all time, if not the greatest. But that's a whole different story. The movie however, is one of the most horrendous of all time. The transformation from anime to live action was probably the worst that I can think of, and I hope it ceases to exist. All in all, by itself it is a very bad movie, but it might thrill people who don't know about the anime. Let's review it. Spoiler alerts.

The most exciting thing to happen within the past couple of days is this little place called Williamsburg. It's probably one of my favorite spots in New York, if not my favorite.

School is on it's way back, and I still have a lot of reading to catch up on. I have a couple test this week, which is kind of odd, because I had the whole week off, so we're not really learning. I don't know how well I'll do on the tests, but I hope I do well, wish me luck.

So I'm going to try to create a new type of bond between written text and video. I'll try this, maybe a few times and see how it goes.

Well, here it is again. Some of you may be with someone, and some of you may not. Today is one of the highest suicide death ratings throughout the entire year, and throughout the entire world, which is very sad. I've been reading a lot of negative comments on Valentine's Day throughout the past couple of weeks, and it's probably because you might not have what you want, but I think it's a great holiday.

What better a day than today, the day when I have the most classes. Yesterday I was at school and told everyone that school was cancelled and I heard pure happiness. Right after I went to a friends house and we had a pretty good time.

So I have this gigantic movie collection that some people know about. Probably composing of well over 200 movies, and I want to end up watching most of them. Who needs a Netflix account when you have all of these movies, that no one has heard about?

In class right now. As I wait for my teacher to come to class, I keep wondering about my future. I really want things to change, but not in the dramatical sense. I feel like things are good for me, and I'm really pushing hard to do a lot better. My mind is clear, things aren't bad, but things aren't amazing either, but I'm okay with that.

I'm more worried about the people around me though. My father has always had it rough and I want that to change, but it's tough for everyone in the house in general. Some of my friends seem to be having anxiety with a couple of different things ranging from home life to school to freedom.

My teacher has just arrived, and now I'm off to class.

Before I go though, I hope you all have optimism. I know I do and you need it to get through life.

Blog you later!

High schools and colleges have very different schedules and it kind of rises my curiosity as to why it's like that. Why are they so different? In high school you don't really have that much flexibility. The most you can choose is a couple of courses that you can opt to take for fun, but even then, you have to take them earlier. Later on when you're a senior there's not much work to be done except for college.

Today was Apple's keynote event, which most of you readers probably don't care about, but I cared about it, cause I'm a nerd, aw yeah. Just like the long run on sentence, the keynote was pretty useless and it didn't help me out in anyway. They released this new tablet called the iPad, and I must say I'm disappointed. Especially because they didn't talk about anything else really.

School starts tomorrow, and I'm starting off with math and music. Not very advanced classes but they'll do nonetheless. I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of my college friends again, most of the ones I haven't really seen. Some of them I guess I won't be seeing because my schools system screwed them over.

My internet got cut off because of my router going bad. For you non-tech savvy people, that means thats bad.

Today, is my birthday. I should be excited but I'm really not all that crazy for it. Yesterday some big things happened, and now I'm just troubled. I don't really want to say much about it online, because it is pretty personal, and honestly, knowing people, if I talk about it, it will probably cause more high school drama, and that's not what I want.

What a weekend! Tomorrow will be my 9 month will Allaire, and that's quite a while for me. It's been a great 9 months and nothing has gone wrong and there's been no problems since the beginning. It's great to have her around, and I feel happy when she is. Then the day after that is my 20th birthday. Yeah, I can already feel the wrinkles starting to appear on my face.

My birthday is in 5 days, and although I'm not as excited as most people are during their birthday, I'd like to celebrate in some spectacular way. I was going to go to this thing called Golden Festival, but they rose the price so it's not even worth it. Most of my friends wouldn't even go anyway, so what's really the point?

My birthday is closing in, on the 17th, which is a Sunday, and I have no idea what to do for it. There is this thing called the Golden Festival which I will definitely be going to, but it's in the city, and it costs some amount of money for each person. I've been going there every year since I was a little kid, and it's a lot of fun.

Those two things in the same sentence is pretty hard to understand, they're the complete opposite of each other. I went to an archery range yesterday and shot some arrows with a bow for around 2 hours. It was a lot of fun, and I think I did pretty well for my first time. After that we went back to my house to eat, and then we went to my friend Matt's house and played Warhammer.

It's the first day of not only the year, but the decade. Last decade started off crappy and it certainly ended crappy, if everyone tries to make a bigger impact on the world, I'm sure it will be better. I hope when I turn 30 in 10 years, the world will be a better place. I can already see more crappy movies and music arriving though.
