SNOW CAMPING

October 1st, I cannot believe it. Soon Halloween, Thanksgiving then Christmas. This time of year always goes so quickly. I feel like I blink and a week has passed.

Movies

This week I saw Jennifer's Body and Pandorum. Luckily I saw both movies for free because neither of them were very good.

Jennifer's Body was like a teenage boy's wet dream mixed with some horror. Megan Fox is not a very good actress. some parts were good but overall, not so much. Its a renter.

Pandorum was confusing, I had no feelings towards the characters and I felt like the movie just wanted to shock and scare people. Lame. But I did stay. I wanted to see have it would end. What the spin at the end would be. I would also rate this has a renter. If you are looking for a space/action/monster movie, I recommended Event Horizon.

attempted bombing

Scary!! A Jordanian national was arrested Thursday and charged with attempting to bomb Fountain Place, a 60-story glass office tower in downtown Dallas, the FBI said. I work a few blocks away from the Fountain Place building.

I went out and helped Shawn work on a house last Saturday. It is still hard to believe Shawn and I have been down in Dallas for over a year and in 12 days he will be moving back to MN. Next Saturday, 26th, is his last Saturday with Habitat for Humanity. We actually got along a lot better than I thought. A couple little argument but no big fights like I thought we would of had. I am going to miss the big guy.

Shawn, a few of his Habitat for Humanity friends and I saw the movie 9 on Thursday. I was a little confused, even at the end. Shawn was totally irritated with the movie.
Rating: red box the movie when it is released

September 11th, 2001

I cannot believe it has been 8 years. Do you remember where you were when you heard the new? I remember I was in my room downstairs in my parent's house getting ready for school. Listening to 93x, an alternative radio station in MN. The DJs were talking about it and I honestly thought they were joking at first. Finally I turned on the TV. Totally shock! I still went to school. My first class was a social study and we were all talking about what happened. The professor came in and we asked him his thoughts. He did not know it happened. He said he has family in New York, he dismissed class and ran out of the room. The campus was a lot quieter than usually. I remember my mom crying that night.

New Apartment

Moved into my new apartment last weekend!! Pictures soon. My brother Shawn and I have been living together the last year. He has decided to move back to MN at the end of September. Still in the some apartment complex, just different building. I like the apartment! The two-bedroom was too big and I never hung my pictures. This apartment is 600-and-some sq ft. Next week some friends are coming over for dinner and helping my hang pictures. Going to Art & Frame Expo tonight to get two pictures framed. Michael's does an ok job framing but I want better than that. One of the pictures I getting framed is a picture my mom painted and other is a picture of a church in Prague. I heard good things about Art & Frame Expo, crossing my fingers.

Less than a year left in Texas!!

The Uniform Project

The Uniform Project is this girl pledging to wear one dress for one year and try every day to re-invent the dress. Its her way of getting the fundraiser for the Akanksha Foundation noticed. The foundation is a grassroot movement that is revolutizing education in India. I like looking at all her outfits. She is very creative!
