My brothers and Mom have gone camping leaving my Dad and I at home. So we had a father-daughter day--went to go see Wanted and then got pizza! It was great. I don't get to spend a lot of time with my Dad because I'm either at school all week from Fall to Spring or we're working opposite hours. I've been wanted to see Wanted for a long time and it lived up to all the excitement. I gasped and laughed (perhaps not at the most appropriate times) and even jumped in my seat. I can't believe how well James McAvoy pulled off an American accent. The only reason I noticed is because his accent is very pronounced; usually I don't hear accents.

Aside from today's events, not too much has been happening. I have finally categorized all my movies. I have 285 movies and I've seen 196 of them. It doesn't help that I've already picked up two more DVD collections. Wal-mart has a great selection (sounds like a commercial) of old movies in sets. I have the Fright Night (old horror movies with actors like Bela Lugosi and Vincent Price), Samurai (old Asian movies like the Fists of Bruce Lee played by Bruce Li, not Bruce Lee), Classic Romance, and an Abbot and Costello collection. They're great.

Most of my movies are VHS so Dad suggested that I go out and buy another VCR and keep it boxed so that I can have it in the years to come. Well, I went to Wal-mart and bought a VCR/DVD player. I'm going to set it up in my room, so I can finally watch my DVD's, and put away the old VCR. That way...hmm hmm...avert your eyes...I can rent DVD's I like and tape them...

Aside from movies I also went out and bought a new game for my DS and I played it for almost 20 hours straight and I still have a way to go. It's called Professor Layton and the Curious Village. It's a puzzle game with a storyline. It's really cool and a whole lot easier than the Pokemon game I had.

It seems like I've had a lot of time to do nothing but all of the above was just 3 days. I went to the movies today, I organized my movies another day, and I played my DS another day. That's 3 days out of the past 3 weeks that I've been able to do whatever. I'm back at work, full time, over time, whatever they need. I love my job, I love my pay, but I don't like the time it takes. I have to do an orientation tomorrow from 3-9 and then a 13 hour day after that. The next day I have off is the 12th... This is my last year for working here though. And it's my last year at school. I can't wait to be a teacher. I am so ready for this!

I don't know why I'm in such a rush to grow up all of a sudden. I can't wait to have my own place, to have kids, to have a job. I have so many plans and i'ts so strange that it's coming so soon!


Well, what an entry!

I'll end it here...
