So...
Another Monday is upon us. But wasn't totally bad, for me at least (cept in precal but I don't really want to talk about that.)
First off, being the Movie...uh, Conusseir(ok, I can't spell in French) that I am, I'm sure most of you know by now, I'm always on the lookout for new movie stuffs. Well, today I saw the new War of the Worlds teaser trailor. Let's just say the credibility has me more excited than the actual trailor. Tom Cruise, aliens, and Steven Spielburg, what's a better combo than that? Too bad I can't say the same for their trailor. Let's see, lots of shots of cities on Earth and a guy's like "Haha, well, aliens have been watching us secretly forever and are envious of our great planet. We never knew. Basically in this movie, we're f*cked!" Well, I mean he doesn't say that. And then you see like two explosions. Hopefully they'll come out with a better thatrical trailor and some tv spots maybe actually featuring Tom Cruise or E.T. or something.
Also today, keep your eyes open for the new Batman Begins trailor (the teaser one's arlready out). It was supposed to come out offcially today, but the site's not working. I'm sure many other Bats fans sides myself are a wee bit dissapointed.
This picture is only cause I had to put another one of Ryan up. There's pretty much only one picture circulating throughout the net right now.
Yesterday I went to my first indoor soccer game since like, 7th grade. It was really fun, even though the she-males wiped the floor with us. But we had like 5 goalies and I'm pleased to say out of the 18 or so goals scored on us, I only let about two in.
Have I mentioned I REALLY like Ryan Reynolds? Oh and he's Candadian (don't worry SG and Enin, you're still two of my fav Canuck guys ^_^)
TIGRESS' MAGNIFICENT MOVIE QUOTE
While not as sexy as Ryan, I'm still into his tail and horns.
"If you're always thinking about the future, then you kinda forget about the present."
I would LOVE to watch the Wizard of Earthsea (SciFi 9/8 C) but my parents condone tv on the weekdays. I'm soooo sorry Shawn Ashmore!

Sorry again!
Hi, sorry, I've been busy. But busy doing what you ask? Well...
SEEING SOME WICKED AWSOME MOVIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This weekend I saw both Blade: Trinity and Ocean's 12. Both were FANTASTIC. Ryan Reynolds was so funny in Blade (and he had his shirt off for like half the movie heh heh, with lots of angsty stuff) I don't know why they didn't think to put him in sooner. He added a great opposite for Blade's stoic manner. And the girl who played Abigail Whistler (while using some shameless product placement for Apple iPods) was fun as well, but not as good as Ryan Reynolds. Haha, one of my fav quotes "You made a f*cking vampire POMERIANIAN?" Haha. So funny. It was much better than the second one. They way they did Dracula was really cool too. He was not only a weird skeleton creature (that looked pretty cool) but he was a model that ran around with his shirt undone complete with blingbling. If you put this dude up against the guy that could turn into a giant bat in Van Helsing, HE'D KICK HIS ASS IN ABOUT 10 SECONDS. So, if you're 17 or have access to a fake id, I'd recommend seeing this.
Hey, hot stuff.
I also saw Ocean's 12 which was great. The plot was ridiculous, there was little to know action, but it was still great. Know why? THE CHARACTERS. They were what held it all together. The humor, the new characters, the old characters, the cameos (one of the best cameos ever, haha). It was great. And then a nice plot twist at the end that made you say "Woah, that is NOT what I expected at all". Fantastic. Don Cheadle (the British black dude) was great, as was Matt Damon and all the rest. And the Chinese grease man was dressed in like, Echo gear the entire time with all his blingbling, haha! And he still didn't speak a word of English. Not even "Whafucisdat?" like in the first one. So great.
Uh oh, I feel another new segment comin' on! Ok, well it's an old one I haven't done for months and months and months and months. But it goes a little somethin like this:
RED'S MOVIE TRAILOR CRITIQUES
Yes, I talk about all 20 minutes of trailor's I saw, good and bad! Like it or not, here it comes!
Constantine: Yay, Keanu's back! Ok, I'd see anything with Keanu, even if it was Bill and Ted's wacko phycadelic trip as 40 year-olds. But the movie premise looked a little weird. Like, The Grudge combined with The Matrix. People are gonna see the trailor and go "Woah, Matrix 4? But why is Neo doing like, holy exercisms?" Despite their best guesses, it is NOT The Matrix Thaumaturgy (just learned a new word today, kids).
The Pacifier: I don't want to see Vin Diesel. I don't want to see kids. I don't want to see mini-vans driving around like a humvee in Desert Storm. 'Nuff said.
Will Wonka and the Chocolate Factory: My clarinet teacher told me the other day "I wonder what Gene Wilder has to say about this." I wonder too. The first thought that came to my mind was "Whoa, frightening!" But then I realized "Ahh, it's because it's a Tim Burton movie, no wonder." Of course, if it's a Mr. Burton/Depp colaboration (like another 5 or so movies I know) it's gotta be good.
White Noise: Ah, I HEAR dead people. Well, sorta. This looked like something we had learned about in geosystems yesterday. I initially didn't want to see. Oh, but it had Michael Keaton, I love Michael Keaton! Maybe I'll just wait for DVD then. I didn't know he was still acting. But anywho, dead people who tell some people to get out of their house. And then scary stuff starts to happen. Sound familiar? I should think so. It's the plot of every other ghost movie around Hollywood lately.
I guess the rest of the trailors were so boring I couldn't remember them. Oh well. No X-mas pic today cause of the trailor thing. But we still have time for...
RED'S MAGNIFICENT MOVIE QUOTE
Yay, the Santa Clause! Haven't seen the 2nd, but the 1st one's great. I think the pic's from the second one though.
"Hurts, doesn't it? You shouldn't hurt PEOPLE!"
Oh, I was also at Suncoast today, and I discovered...FMA COMES OUT ON DVD IN JANUARY! But I'm sure you hard-core people already knew that.
Ok, mau your holiday shopping go well this weekend! Tata!

Sorry!
Hey, I'm sorry for not posting/visiting sites/reading the GB/ answering PMs yesterday. It was another hectic night. Hopefully I'll be a little more active tonight. I fell asleep on my homework last night, and then fell asleep in multiple classes. *sigh* It's a good thing X-mas is soon, or I don't know what I'd do.
Basketball has been sucking lately. The coach is really weird. He never talks when we're playing, he acts like we're stupid, I swear he's crosseyed, he doesn't dress well, and he's a fatty (I have nothing against the obese, it's just another thing to complain about, cause I'm fat too). I might just do indoor soccer with my friends and coaches who I know, instead of a shitload of smart-alechy underclassmen who've been playing since they were 5.
I almost started crying in front of my Spanish tutor today about my horrible grades in math again. I kust suck at precal. I can't remember anything. I always get so confused, it's horrible. I'm going to get like an F on the interim. My teacher thinks I'm a fuck-up cause I can never finish my hours of precal homework on top of my Spanish and AP Jpournalism homework. And later in tutoring I didn't even pretend to understand. My tutor had so much patience having to explain things to me over and over again. I'm sorry if I don't get all this vector/bearing/trig functions/component angles on the first try. Course, my mom doesn't understand that.
On a bit of a happier not, I've decided to add a new segment to my blog until X-mas (and maybe Hannuka(sorry, I can't spell!) will make some guest appearences). It's called:
RED'S HILARIOUS HOLIDAY PICTURES
Well, they're not mine, per say. I'm just the person that happened to find them and post them first!
My fav X-mas cosplay to date.
RED'S MAGNIFICENT MOVIE QUOTE
Isn't that a confusing quote? Oh, Mr. Wilder...
"Whoa Dad, you're flying!"
"It's ok, I'm used to it. I lived through the 60's."
I forgot how much I loved this movie.
Well, that's all for now. Hopefully I'll be seeing Blade 3 tomorrow, so I might not update then, either.
Chow, lo mein.

Sorry I haven't been able to make it to sites or posts. It's been a bad week homework-wise. One thing I did figure out while staying up in the wee hours of the morning is I work alot better to classical music. And not like, John Williams soundtracks, but like, the classical music station. The songs are so long and there's no lyrics to focus on. It's great. Don't get me wrong, that doesn't mean I don't like anything else now, it just means I like this in additon to other stuff. Wow, I'm confusing myself.
There are two huge-ass accidents on two of the three roads leading to my house. My parents will never get home.
I think I'm failing precal.
Everyone should watch Get Backers immediately. It's one of my new fav animes. That's what that picture from up top is of.
Like the new avi?
I'm so tired. It was another battle with sleepiness drving to school today. Through extraordinary perservation, I managed to keep at least one eye open while driving. Sometimes it was squinting.
I probably won't be around much later. I'm going to try and get my hw done and then go to bed at say...oh, 9:30. You may scoff, but I REALLY need the sleep.
Why is it freezing in my house?
RMMQ
Yay, I don't know if anyone got this, but it was James and the Giant Peach.
"Oh, you should never, never doubt what nobody is sure about."
A quote to describe the addled state my brain is in right now. Can you tell? I ate too many kisses. I'm gonna puke.

mm.
Sorry this is so late today. I was doing college apps all morning/fighting with my parents. But the good news is, I got three done! Hoo-RAY! Red's on her way to becoming a genuine college student! And I can't wait. High school really blows after 4 years. Not to mention the three classes under mine are genuine blowhards(no offense to any freshmen/sophmores/juniors reading this, maybe it's just my school).
Ok, so I watched my first two episodes of the GTO anime. I didn't have time to watch more cause of FMA. But it was really good! I highly reccomend it. Course I watched it in Japanese, so I don't know if the English dubbers are good or not.
"GRRR, SOMETIMES ENGLISH DUBS REALLY SUCK!"
Which brings me to my next point. Ok, in FMA, my fav character is Hughes. But what was up with that dub? Ugh. It was ok I guess. better than Roy's in any case. The best from that episode was Hawkeye's. I liked hers. And that Bald dude's was ok too. Was he named 'Bald' in the Japanese version? Cause it was weird in English. Calling a guy with hair "Bald"? I mean, c'mon.
I tried playing Mario DS, but I kept killing myself. I would accidently run off a mushroom, or a carpet, or a rolling log, or a cloud, or go through a cloud, fall in quicksand, freezing water, boiling lava...yesterday was not a good day for Mario, Luigi, and me.
RED'S MAGNIFICENT MOVIE QUOTE
Continuing with the Dumas movies. I tried to find a picture for this, but my search kept turning up pictures from the Man in the Iron Mask. And who wants to see Leo any more than is necessary?
"She won't be coming down here with the spray. She'll be coming down here with a shovel. It happened to m' brother. Split him right down the middle. Now I have two half-brothers."
Wow, I haven't seen that movie in a loooong time. It actually used to scare me a little. Ok, bye everybody!

Funny how fast little green pieces of paper in your wallet can dissapear...
Yeah, yesterday I kinda went on a shopping spree. I went to Hot Topic and I got the Star Wars jacket I told everyone who was online the past 3 days. For those of you who don't know, it's a track jacket that's black and says Star Wars on the front and there's a skull an dcrossbones on the back, but instead of a skull, it's a stormtrooper helmet. It's the shindig! I also got a Thundercats t-shirt. I liked Panthro. He was the real leader of the group. He was a soul man. He didn't take any shit from anyone!
I also got a bunch of X-Mas candy for my mom. I also went to Suncoast and got Hellboy AND Spiderman 2 (for me!) cause it was like a buy both for 30 bucks deal. I also signed up with a two-year membership for their video thing. Who knows, maybe anime will be cheaper for me in the future. Or just their movies in general. Cause I have to pick up Alias season 3 for my mom, and now that I have like no money left, I have to save as much as possible. I also bought pockey, yay! And watched Spidey 2. The bloopers real was kick-ass. Thank God for bloopers reels.
I had one of the worst mornings ever. I was already to have my mom fill out some shit on my college apps online, and I went on only to discover they had been erased. I SAVED THEM. And then both my parents chewed me out and I felt horrible because it was an accident and they were making it seem like it was my fault, yadda yadda. I hate living here.
RED'S MAGNIFICENT MOVIE QUOTE
Yay, Counte of Monte Cristo.
"Are you coming peacefully, or do you intend to resist?"
"Oh, don't be stupid. Of course we intend to resist! Just give us a a moment, allright?"
Ok, hope everyone's day goes better than mine.

Hey, it's Friday!
Sorry I haven't been around for a few days. Between my band concert, my dog getting sick (he was at the vet two days but he's ok now) my Nintendo DS and my homework I haven't really had a chance to update. Yeah, so I hope everyone's doing well, and too my friends who aren't, I'm sure "Everything is gonna be all right, everything is gonna be all right! I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in trenchtown.
And then georgie would make the fire lights,
As it was logwood burnin’ through the nights."
Ok, end Bob Marley song. Anyway, the point is, feel better!
Let's see what else has happened? My brother ran over a curb when we were in the car so I spilled coffee on my pants, in AP Journalism today we have a sub so I'm wisely using the computer to update my site, I think I just bombed a math test, I had too much miso soup and pot stickers yesterday, I had my first basketball practice which blew cause everyone was an underclassman and the coach was quiet and boring. We also started a new book in school called the Stranger which is really about existentialism. There are about two people in the entire class right now doing something constructive. Our teacher has all these beanie babies on the computers, it's weird. Even though this classroom is full of computers, this is the first time all year I've used them.
Super Mario 64 DS is going well, I FIANLLY got Luigi. He makes the cutest noises! *squeals*
OH YEAH! I saw Get Backers 5-8 yesterday. One of the best animes EVER! I highly reccomend it, because not only is it humor-full, but it's bishi-full too, hoo-RAY!
RED'S MAGNIFICENT MOVIE QUOTE
I think it was this movie, I don't really remember.
"Now you're thinking, just now "Why me, O God?". The answer is, God has nothing to do with it. In fact, God is never in France this time of year."
Mmmkay, this is where I go. Later today I'm going SHOPPING, hoo-RAY! And I'm gonna get me a Star Wars jacket from Hot Topic! Hoo-RAY!
Peace and Star Wars grease!

Heh heh heh...
So last night after I posted, I went to Best Buy and bought Super Mario 64 DS. Yes, it's like the N64 game, but there's like loads of mini (and fun!) games you can unlock, and you can also play as not only Mario, but Yoshi, Luigi, and Wario, too! Iz the shindig. So of course, I HAD to bring it to school and show EVERYONE. Most people didn't appreciate it (mostly girls) but some bent to kiss the ground at my feet ("WHOA! LEMME PLAY!") I'll probably bring it to school again and play it during gesystems.
Sorry it took me so long to update, I had to bring one of my doggies to the vet, cause he has diarreah :( But there was a really hot male nurse there (he had long hair!) and an even hotter doctor! He looked a bit like Vaughn from Alias, yay! Screw people doctors, all the hot, young doctors work at the vet. It's SO true, too.
Thanks for the birhtday wishes, everyone! Instead of doing the quote today (wOOt, I'm lazy!) I'll answer all of your comments indiviudaly just to show you how appreciative I am!
Mourghan: Thanks! They're so cool! You should get one and then kick your boyfriend's ass on it, haha!
Tepocoora: Actually, I'm 18, BUT THAT'S CLOSE ENOUGH! Thanks for the song, chicky!
Mireiyu: I'll party wichu!
Shanny: *scratches head* yeah, I guess i shouldn't have been worried *grins*
Original J: Thanks for the weel wishes, even though I have NO idea who you are!
Night Shade: Thanks! Nice deer.
Rustym: Thanks, dude!
Purple P. :Thanks! Just keep your sugar kite squirrel things away from me. ^^
Evil: Yay, pie! And, uh...*roar* back?
Niko: No, it's mine, all mine!!!
Me: I am SO right!
Darkangel: It'll get more games, mark my words! And if it doesn't, I'll steal my friend's GBA games ot play on it. *turns off sprinklers* Don't worry, I appreciate your effort. *pats back*
Duo: Thanks duo! My project did work out. Glad those pictures made someone laugh. I hope some of these comments do, too.
Enin: Thanks! Aww, feel better! Oooh, pockey! *munches on pocky and twirls Enin's hair*
Ok, that's a wrap! Hope you guys all have a good one!

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY, DAMN NIT!
GUESS FREAKIN WHAT? I GOT A NINTENDO DS! IT'S THE MOST FRICKIN AWSOME THING EVER! TWO SCREENS! PDA! CHAT ROOMS! *hehe, that'll be fun come school time* I can rob my friend of all his GBA games cause it plays those too! It's so cool! Course, there are only 4 games out for DS. But I think I'll pick me up a copy of Super Mario 64 DS today, plus maybe some anime cause my mummy put some dinero($$) on my credit card.
Let's see, what else? Ah yes, thanks very much Molly for yuor card in the mail! I also got my FMA ost yesterday(remember, the eBay one?) and that's good. I also got Trigun Maximum 3 yesterday. Oh, I also got a wee diamond, which I am thanksful for, but pales in comparison to my DS. XD
Oh, it's also Iluvsaske's b-day, and I'd like to thank her very much for this:
Very cool, dude.
"Yes, it's my birthday!"
Ok, that picture's a wee bit creepy. I won't do that again.
OH YEAH! I also saw National Treasure last night. It wasn't bad. It was like Indiana Jones except with Boromir, no Nazis, no blood, no Sean Connery (though there WAS a funny old dad) and a funnier sad kick than that Chinese kid. But last night was weird, like all of the movies were selling out.
"For my birthday, I'm gonna make me a really cool watch!"
"I'M GONNA GET ME SOME ANIME FOR MY B-DAY, AND I DON'T CARE WHO KNOWS IT!"
Ok, no quote today, as you can see, I've had too much fun with the pictures already. Bye bye, everyone!

Guess what?!?!?!
Red made a big step in history...of Red Tigress...erm, yeah. ANYways, I burned my first CD yesterday! Yay! And it only took like 2 and a half minutes. Besides all the stuff I mentioned yesterday, it's got like Dragula, Wonderwall, Papa Roach-Getting Away with Murder some Jimmy Eat World, and this awsome song by Lostprophets called "Shinobi vs. Dragon Ninja". I can't tell you if the song's actually about ninjas or not, cause it's hard to understand half the lyrics. BUT IT'S A KICK ASS SONG. If the title doesn't pull you in, the rock does! Anyways, I was so proud of myself, as anyone who was online last night can tell you.
I also went to a friend's house cause a bunch of my buds were all back from college. We were going to watch Harry Potter 3, so we were trying to find a drinking game online(we had a shitload of Mountain Dew) but couldn't find one. So we made our own! And as soon as I find the url she put it on, I'll post it. But I can't find it. So instead, I'll post this to keep you all highly entertained(the things I do for you people, sheesh).
Reasons not to join the empire...
10. Stormtroopers are the Empire's first line of defense.
9. All ships and installations are built around a "main reactor."
8. Exhaust ports are big enough for proton torpedoes and always lead to the "main reactor."
7. TIE Fighters have no shields.
6. The Emperor's best troops were defeated by rock and stick wielding teddy bears.
5. Officers over the rank of Lieutenant have a life expectancy of two weeks.
4. Everything proceeds as the Emperor has foreseen.
3. Stormtroopers are picked for their intelligence and common sense.
2. The Emperor allows the alliance to know the location of the shield generator.
1. Bounty Hunters, We don't need their scum!
RED'S MAGNIFICENT MOVIE QUOTE
Did someone say Wayne's World 2? I can't remember...
"Look, I have ONE job on this lousy ship. It's STUPID, but I'm gonna do it, OKAY?"
Haha, I LOVE that movie. I think it's on TBS tonight, actually.
Oh, and in case you didn't figure it out by now, me and iluvsaske's b-days are tomorrow, yay! We'll see if I can finish any homework by then. Eh, probably not.
Peace and birthday grease!
