End of the School year Movie


So I signed on to msn recently and at the bottom of my contacts shows a reel of all of msn.com's news. One that caught my attention was the trailer for the movie, Prince of Persia.

For those of you who do not play video games and are unfamiliar with that title, it is based off of a video game. But, that shouldn't veer you away from it.

You all should go watch the trailer. I think it will definitely be a decent blockbuster. Besides who doesn't want to see Jake Gyllenhaal all buffed up. Plus there's someone for the men too. Gemma Arterton, will be co-starring alongside Gyllenhaal.

Let's just say if you enjoyed Pirates of the Caribbean, you should find this just as entertaining.

A quick List on...How to know when you have a Stalker

This is really just a parody on my friend who has a 'potential' stalker. I hope you enjoy it.

1. 1. Shows up at your house un-invited

2. 2. Follows you to class

3. 3. Some how knows your phone number and constantly calls it, and then when you pick up they say nothing, and all you hear is constant breathing.

4. 4. All of a sudden they’re riding your bus even though they live on the other side of town

5. 5. You wake up and they’re there

6. 6. They’re there in your room standing over you with a knife

7. 7. You scream but you can’t because they have duck taped your mouth closed.

8. 8. They lean in and put their pointer finger on your mouth and do a “shh” motion.

9. 9. They knock you out

10. . You wake up and duck tape is gone and everything looks like it did the night before, except now there’s no crazy person standing over you with a knife in their hands.

11. Although there is a lump in the covers that isn’t you

12. You sit up and the lump coughs

13.

“I know you’re there” you say

14. The lump sits up and it’s little Jimmy from down the street

15. . “What the @#$% little Jimmy?... You really gotta stop doing that”

16. Little Jimmy looks up at you with those big brown eyes, and then ignores you and hops off

17. The doorbell rings and you walk downstairs and answer it

18. No one’s there but a note

19. You pick it up and open it and it says

20. Who the @#$% is Little Jimmy?

The End of TV... or Not


Hey readers this is just a required 300 word response I need to do for my blogging class.
Out of all of the media systems ‘The End’ talks about, I think the end of TV is the most interesting issue. I mean most people don’t read the newspaper or magazines much anymore as it is because the majority of people are visual learners and don’t enjoy reading as much as they enjoy watching something. The radio is almost at its end now because most people don’t listen to much radio, when in the car most people just pop in a CD or their iPods and listen to the songs they downloaded from the Internet. The Television though, is slightly different in terms of its finale. I don’t think the Television will die like radio and print will even though ‘The End’ says people can watch “cable and satellite on your computer. And now video is popping up on our computers, our cell phones and our iPods - so we can watch wherever we want (CBC The End: TV).” Even though people can watch whatever they want whenever we want, people can’t watch the episode they day it airs unless it’s on the television. Not to mention the fact that people enjoy watching things on a large screen, that’s why people go to the theatres to see movies. I agree with their final statement when “Ad agency executive Cliff Freeman agrees, "The statement that it is the end is of course very dramatic. But of course, it's not the end at all." In fact, statistics show that Americans are still spending 17 hours a week in front of the old tube (CBC The End: TV).” Personally I believe most students watch television over the Internet more then anyone else does. I personally watch television all the time from sites on the Internet because I miss the shows when they air on the television. I’d rather watch them on the television but I just don’t have the time, or I’m too lazy to move my computer from one room to the other.

Twilight New Moon...


So the second film to the Twilight Saga came out last Friday. I’m sure every theatre featuring the film was full of daunting fan girls and fan boys squealing over how sexy the Cullens are. I for one was not one of those fans lined up two hours before curtain. I also will probably never spend the money to go see such a movie. I am no longer a fan of Twilight since the reading of the fourth book. Or maybe since the fact that it got such a huge following of people that don’t understand good plot and character development. I’m kind of sick and tired of listening to people say Twilight is so awesome because Edward is so hot. I mean, most people only started following the saga after the first movie came out. The movie wasn’t even that good, and the acting and tension between Bella and Edward was pathetic. Yes, I did see it, but unlike others I didn’t spend the money on it. I feel kind of like a tool considering I watched the film, and I’ll probably find a pirated copy on the Internet of the New Moon film, just so I have something to say about it when I hear someone say it was so awesome.

3 week mark and a small list of cramming essentials

Three weeks guys, that's all that's left and it's Christmas Break. =)
How exciting!! Minus the fact that within these three weeks most of us students, will be working our butts off.

Here' a list of things that I suggest to get in order to help you get through these stress inducing weeks...

1. Candy
2. Candy
3. Pizza (come on people it's stress food)
4. Home made chocolate chip cookies (or whatever you consider you fav. to be)
5. A Theme song (for those late night study periods)
6. A box set of your favourite show (because if you are anything like me you'll come across a show and decide you have to watch the entire thing before you start doing any productive work... it's called epic procrastination)
7. I guess you're school work.

Here's a couple places to watch shows.

1. CTV
2. MTV
3. Ninja Video

My received quote of the Week

My dear friend Ms. Jessica, likes to send me and our group of friends with random quotes each week via. text message. We do no know when we will receive them, they are like I said, random.

I particularly liked this one and thought I'd share it with all of you.

Friendship is like peeing on yourself. Everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling from it.

I thought it was pretty funny and pretty true... lol

BTW

I've been really wanting a new kitty and I am this close, like 50%, to getting one for Christmas. When your parents ask you to write them a list for Christmas, and all you write is...
  1. Kitten- that is all.

It's pretty much a guarantee.

So... whose mad about that local transit strike?? I mean seriously?? Some kids had a 45 minute bus ride to school, imagine that in walking minutes. It shouldn't take 2 hours to get to school, is it worth it, especially for an hour class? We all paid for the transit did we not? I demand satisfaction, I want some money back. Maybe enough to pay off the amount I pay for books.


Walking back and forth to school is cool and all, except after night classes, that's a joke right? Walking all by your lonesome, late at night. It's dark, an owl whoo's, maybe a howling of a wolf is heard down yonder. Is that a shadow, OMG did you hear that? what is that? Shuffling of leaves on the ground the sound of boots behind you... man screw walking, better run!


Or hell, could always spend your lunch money on that taxi ride home. Taxi guys are loving it right now, all the new customers needed to get places.


In reality I wonder how many students will sow up to a majority of their classes, yes, I know school still is running like normal, but I think some exceptions need to be addressed. Am I right?

Ivey's Crazy

So I woke up yesterday morning at 8:30 to the sound of coughing. Like super loud hacking gross sounding coughing that awoke me from my slumber. My roommate was in the bathroom, puking I believe. I'm not quite sure I just assumed. I thought to myself "Aww %^$@ does she have the flew? If so, am I screwed. I didn't get the shot!!!" I rolled over and went back to sleep. Waking up many hours later. 2pm I think it was, as I don't normally roll out of bed until that time. I got up and walked out into the hallway. ~Silence~ I walked down the hallway to my roommates room. ~Silence~ She wasn't there.

I then preceded to the kitchen and T.V. room. She wasn't there. The coffee pot was left on still full. I thought to myself... "what happened... is she dead??"

I decided to do the dishes and watch some movies. She ended up returning around midnight. The night before she returned around 7, eyes blood-shot. And the night before hadn't returned at all. I asked her what's up.

She said, "Ivey" They have these 48 hour report things that keep these kids up for 48 hours straight, and on top of that case studies that take like 5 hours each to do. There is no way I could do that. I love my sleep time.

OMG, is this Global Warming or what??

Alright, well I don't know about any of you but, this weather here in London is incredibly annoying. One day it's cold, almost freezing, and I'm shiveng waiting for a bus, and the next day I'm sweating my butt off.

What is up with this weather??

I don't know, maybe it's the fact that 18 degrees doesn't feel cold to us anymore because we've felt almost below 0 already.

Or it's our Canadian Blood because I've been seeing people walking around in nothing but shorts and a T-shirt, and I'm thinking, "Are you people crazy? It's like freezi- wait... no it's not. Man I'm sweating like a pig." o.O

Then the next day I'll be like, "It's not cold out, and walk outide and once again freeze my buttocks"

Come on weather, pick one already!

Serial Killer that Kill's Serial Killers.


Hey I don't know about any of you, but I am in love with the show Dexter.


I'm not the type of television personthat's anal about shows. Anal in a way where I have to watch the show when it's on to the point that my entire schedual works around TV time.


No. That's not me. Except when it comes down to this show.


Last episode, Dexter broke his "code", and killed an innocent man. He just doesn't do that, he feels that he is a good guy because he kills the bad guys. We as an audiance like Dexter, and we root for him because we know he is a good guy, he just so happens to kill people.


That's what makes the show so crazy, "WE ARE IN LOVE WITH A SERIAL KILLER" There's just something slightly wrong with that... But, the shows awesome. If you haven't seen it, I encourage you to check it out.


Sunday Night's 10pm. Movie Network.

Lady Gaga, has got nothing over Eric Cartman

Was watching South Park, and Kenny, Eric, and Kyle were playing the game rock band. Eric was singing "Poka face" by Lady Gaga, and I thought it was brilliant.

This Is It


I just recently came across a little fortune in itunes money, as it just so happens I seem to use my Visa card a lot. I had to sit there and think to myself, what exactly I was going to spend my hard earned Visa points on.... my mother chose for me. So low and behold, an itunes card.


I have been listening to a lot, while no that's a lie, more like one, one song of Michael Jackson's that I am very fond of. The song "Will you be there" that was featured in the movie Free Willy.


I love that song, and it occurred to me that I do happen to like Michael Jackson's music and I remembered that there was a movie of his that was coming out. Ie. This is it.


I have yet to go see it, I'm not sure that I will to be honest. BUT, I did download the album that inspired the movie. *Big props to me*

The Movie Legion

So the other day I was watching the Tyra Banks Show, and it was an interesting segment. It had something to do with "real life vampires", these are people who believe they are real vampires. These people actually drink other people's blood... anywho, I was like, "well this is kinda weird." I decided I wanted to look up some information about these people, and I just so happened to get completely side tracked. I found myself watching a trailer for this upcoming movie called 'Legion'

Here's the synopsis from the International Movie Database:
"After a terrifying biblical apocalypse descends upon the world, a group of strangers stranded in a remote truck stop diner in the Southwest unwittingly become humanity's last line of defense when they discover the diner's young waitress is pregnant with the messiah"

I know the synopsis doesn't sound too awesome, if anything it doesn't give the trailer any justice. IMO, the trailer looks pretty sick. For anyone whose interested go watch the trailer. Gotta love Youtube ;D P.S. Yes, that is the naked guy from A Knights Tale playing the Angel Michael.
