1am Entry


It’s one in the morning.  I’m getting tired.  I’m probably going to head to sleep pretty soon.  Before I do that though, I wanted to get something out of me for the blog.  It’s been over a week since the last entry and I did promise to get at least one a week while at school.  I’ve come pretty close.  I might have missed one week at some point.  Oh well.

I don’t really have too much to write about.  A lot of stuff has been going on with school because it’s exam time.  That means studying, and exams and more studying.  I haven’t really had time for life outside of school and the daily food, washroom, sleep, and housekeeping breaks.  Okay, maybe I’ve taken time to watch a few movies but that’s after studying is done for the day and I’m winding down towards bedtime.  Life hasn’t been all that exciting for the most part.

I think this might have been my first Easter away from my family.  That isn’t a big deal, other than it being a first.  It’s only a holiday for chocolate if you aren’t religious, right?  I missed out on a little bit of chocolate which will likely just be waiting for me when I get home from school in just over a week.  Easter is basically a joke holiday if you aren’t religious.  Hey, how about we buy each other some chocolate?  Okay!  That’s a splendid idea!  I could go for gaining some chocolate pounds because chocolate tastes good.  Yeah, that’s really all the holiday has become.  Especially when you’re not a child or a parent anymore and don’t get to do egg hunting.

I haven’t had eggs in a while.  It’s been over a month now.  I never had time to cook a proper breakfast in the morning before school, so I never got anything that I had to cook.  Breakfast became mostly muffins or pop tarts.  Mmmmm.  Pop tarts.  Strawberry flavoured death.  Anyway, I could go for some eggs but I think I’ll wait a week and have some when I go back home.  That way I don’t have to find a way to make the eggs I don’t eat during this week survive the hour and a half drive.

Two more exams are left this term and they’re the toughest two exams.  These are the two exams that are most likely to ruin my chances of success.  If I put enough hours into studying this weekend, I should be good to go.  There’s always the other side though, where I study the wrong material.  Hopefully I don’t.  It would be nice to make it through school successfully.

Anyway, it’s now quarter after one and I really feel like making sweet love to my mattress.  I’ve been awake since six thirty am and could really use a few hours sleep to get me going again.  I think I’ll leave it here then.  This isn’t much of a blog entry.  It isn’t really about anything.  It got a few things across though so that’ll have to do.

Is "Real Steel" Like "Over the Top"?

When I was going through my weekly movie binge a couple weeks ago, I stumbled upon two movies that I had never seen before that tackled a very similar story.   It was an odd thing to have happen because I didn’t know of any similarities between the two movies.   The first was Real Steel, a movie about a man who participates in robot boxing while bonding with the son that he had left years before.   The second was Over the Top, a movie about a man who participates in arm wrestling while bonding with the son that he had left years before.   Similar?   I think so. Let’s begin with Real Steel.   I watched this one because, why the hell not?   I quite enjoyed the movie and by the end I was rooting for Hugh Jackman’s character to help his robot, Atom, to a victory.   The thing to point out about Real Steel is how good the visual effects were.   I wasn’t expecting too much going in, but I thought they masterfully crafted each robot in a way that it entirely fit its surroundings and didn’t

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Season 2, Episode 8: The Power Stealer

Image
Last time we sat down with the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers , Tommy was going through some serious stuff.   His powers were running low because Lord Zedd was targeting him.   He felt hopeless.   His friends were comforting him.   There was also a Robo Goat trying to take a powerful sword and use it against the Earth.   There were fights all over the place and an emotional hook that was unmatched in any episode that wasn’t in a multi-part arc. This episode, there might be follow-up to the Tommy storyline.   It would be nice to see more of the struggle with his powers.   Right now, that’s the one throughline that has been playing out.   II hope this episode continues to have some sort of meaning to the overall story, instead of being a self-contained and meaningless.   The show needs to grow and evolve, with a storyline that builds to something significant.   Having episodes that keep the story at a standstill is boring.   The story needs to move forward.   Will this episode d

A Short Description of how Baby's Day Out (1994) is a Live Action Cartoon

Animated movies have been a large fixture throughout cinematic history.   There is currently an Academy Award category devoted entirely to animated features.   They are an important part of the cinematic landscape.   Movies would be completely different if not for the animated films that have been popular throughout the past century. Children have always been a large part of the popularity of cartoons.   This has not been solely a movie based genre.   Television also thrives on animated shows.   As a child, I can remember watching cartoons on Saturday mornings.   In the children’s cartoons, characters could be forced into dangerous predicaments, get injured or nearly killed, and continue on with their lives as if nothing ever happened to them.   This was the way of cartoons such as Looney Toons , where Elmer Fudd, Wile E. Coyote, Daffy Duck, and Yosemite Sam would always suffer great physical trauma, then return to their normal selves in the next scene. This is probably
