To Infinity, and Beyond!

I watched Toy Story 3 on Saturday and it was great! :D
Well it's pretty much the same formula that goes into the first and second installments of this trilogy but I enjoyed it anyway. I was surprised that the plot was a bit darker for the third film; parts of the movie left me with a feeling of "oh my gosh, what is that?" and "why? oh my gosh why?" but in the most humorous way possible. This movie, I think, was made for those of us who grew up with the first two films. Most of us are "Andy's" that went off to college and had to grow up; it was nice that this movie touched base on everything we love about Toy Story. Have to admit that I teared up at the last bit of the movie; it made me want to go back to my "home" home and find all my old toys in the hopes of rekindling our lost friendships lol. Well, maybe not in such a literal sense, but hey it's good to reminisce.

Nothing much to look forward to this weekend. I want to watch Knight and Day but that might just be my own little venture. We gave up on Jonah Hex, seeing as how last time we decided to give a low rated movie a chance (Killers via rottentomatoes.com) we were very disappointed. You can't get a single digit rate and impress too many people, should have read and learned and walked away.

I guess now I'll leave you with one of my favorite tracks from the movie, please visit YouTube here to have a listen.

Nom Nom Nom

Today would be a great day for some frozen yogurt at iKiwi. Come to think of it, everyday of this summer would be a great day for frozen yogurt. :D

Summer Splash

It was our 3rd Annual Summer Splash event today and I have to say it went quite well, very leisure. Got a chance to hang out with the girls and get some tanning done lol. It was supposed to be the hottest day of the week today, somewhere over 100 degrees. After a while hot just begets hot, so I can't really feel the difference between 80 and a million degrees (aside from the possibility that I've been set on fire).

Another great memory with my reese's pieces (missing Kim, Laurie, and Charity) but hopefully we'll reunite again soon.






Not much else going on in the next few weeks; contemplating on whether or not I should attend our August conference, maybe just to hang out with other alumns and do some sorority stuff. I am highly anticipating the opening of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter which is June 18th I believe. After I finished the 4-day, 4-park deal from Disney, I was thirsting for more theme park adventure, so hopefully I get to go to the new Harry Potter-land soon.

Might catch A-Team or Karate Kid this week but I'm still not sure if either venture will turn out well. Jonah Hex is releasing this Friday and that might render some unconscionable fun. Will write soon with updates on all the latest fun having excitement!

Going Up

Listened to the Infant Sorrow CD today. I have to say that this is the best make-believe band of all time, well next to Otis Day and the Knights. This song inspires me to do something, but what?

These past few days I've been feeling a little lost; there seems to be this slight void in my life and I can't figure out what's missing. Everyone hopes that their lives or their hopes and dreams amount to something more; praying that each result is more than just the sum of its parts. Everything I've done in high school, college, this past year; what is it all for?

I stumbled upon Po Bronson's book "What Should I Do With My Life?" and had another notion of inspiration. Apparently it's not a strange case when someone feels lost in their work or in their lives. Having a means to an end is not enough at times and it's times like these when courage is desperately needed. I'm scared that all the choices I've made were wrong, that every step I took to get to where I want to be, actually lead to the wrong destination, or worse, leads to nowhere. I want to do more with my life. I've realized now that I haven't found my passion, that one goal that sets everything else in motion. Am I destined to be hopeless? Is this all there is? Well, I've decided to truly discover my "dream" the one thing that I want to live for.

I'm going to look into new career options or some new job opportunities. I'm only 23 and I already feel stuck in a rut. Who was it that said "find what you love doing and figure out a way to get paid for doing it?" or something along those lines. Well, I have a lot of research to do but I'm glad I have a new song to add to the soundtrack of my life.

Secrets

The power of music can be a crazy thing. OneRepublic's Secrets has been stuck in my head for the longest time, I found myself singing along and I didn't even know the words.

I first heard it in the trailer for ABC Family's new show Pretty Little Liars. This show gives off a Gossip Girl-esque vibe and I wasn't really interested about the concept, but this song makes me want to watch this new series anyway, which is premiering tomorrow! I also just heard the song used for the Apple iPhone 4 Design video. I'm such a sap for OneRepublic that I kind of teared up in the FaceTime segment. I am actually contemplating purchasing the new iPhone (not that it needed some soothing music to coax me into submission, the new iPhone has great new capabilities and looks more durable than the last three, which is good for clumsy folk like myself).

I don't know what it is or if there is even a meaning behind it but no matter what the scenario, if there is a good song attached to whatever you're selling, I will most likely buy it. Speaking of which, can't wait to get the Infant Sorrow CD today! :D
