today...

Don't you just love Spring Allergies? It ruins the best season of the year! And the pills only work for 2 weeks, so you need to get a stronger one, costing more, and more, and more, until you're getting pills like nasonex for $100 a pop; while the pharmaceutical companies make enough money to buy the stock market.
Anyway, I learned another reason why I disagree with Facebook: You get hooked. You don't just look at it once every few weeks, oh, not at all, you use it like illegal drugs. Again and again, when suddenly whoops! you go to Starbucks to get the wifi to get internet to look at Facebook. And yet, nobody agrees with me. ''Well, you need Facebook'' they say; ''It's a normal thing that everyone does.'' Well if everyone was jumping off a cliff would you do it?!?!? Well, logistically, yes, you would. When you are put in an environment where everyone tells you it's ok, it's ok, you will think it's normal.
Oh, well. If you disagree with me, I frankly don't care.
On another topic, they are going to redo a movie and make a movie from a tv show:
TRON and
THE LAST AIRBENDER.
They look pretty good, but it's just another thing to wait for 2011. Happy mothers day.

Music

Music always seems to be a wonderful pass time and enjoyable. My favourite instruments would be the piano for its simplicity and the bass guitar for its stability and importance. Music is mostly mathematical. Take a scale on a guitar for instance; all are the same, but in different positions. As with the piano, where a scale is always in a pattern of 1 3 5 6 810 12 13. Music is all about sound. You have a beat (drums), a melody (basses), and a tune (trebles, tenors, baris). That's music. Not only one of the parts. Like a jigsaw puzzle; you need all the pieces to make it.

What I also like about instruments is that you can learn similar ones quickly. For instance, if you know the violin, you can play: Bass Guitar, Guitar, Fiddle, Upright Bass, and Contra bass. If you know clarinet you can play: Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, Tenor Saxophone, Alto Saxophone, Baritone Saxophone, Contra bass Clarinet, and Oboe easily.

Music enriches the soul and literally makes you live longer. Conductors of Orchestras have lived for more than 100 years. Anyway, music is good. I like it.

The Lightning Thief

Hello again. A movie just came out yesterday called Percy Jackson & The Olympians: THE LIGHTNING THIEF. I read the series years ago and vaguely remember what it's about but I heard good things about it. The movie's from the Disney Co. which I rarely trust for making movies like: UP or WALLE or any of those cheap 3D animated films.

Entry Date 2: 19 February 2010


I saw the movie on Monday and it's pretty bad. On the scale of 1 to 10 it's a 3. It turns out the movie is not Disney, and they skipped parts and replace them with others. Mostly, it was a visual summary of the book, and nothing more. Because of the parts they skipped they probably can't make a sequel unless it has nothing to do with the books. As it was a close call making it to the theatre, I don't think it's worth seeing. Unless you're one of those people who see movies and walk out thinking 'What was it about?' then you'll hate it too.
Otherwise, it wasn't too bad. I mean, it's not a good one either, but people will see it, sort of like it, and depending on the following mood they'll rate it good or poor.
I took a poll (not a large one, I'm not demented) to see who liked it or not. Here are the statistics:

GoodBad
35% 65%

This poll might be on the blog to your right depending on the mood of my computer.
