Being an English major, familiarity with the name and talent of Carson McCullers is a given. However, I read The Heart is a Lonely Hunter about a thousand years ago, and saw the movie long ago as well. I remember Alan Arkin’s portrayal of Mr. Singer, but not who played the girl, Mick, or the [...]

Today was the first lecture exam of Anatomy. I believe I took the wrong approach to studying for the test, and I didn’t really like how I did. It’s unfortunate, but I think I missed at least 10 or more. Ah well – must study harder!

There was a review held last night that I missed. Very unfortunate. Seems like a lot of people are psyched about the test, for it’s gonna be a dookie! Tons of information to go over, and I hardly begun memorizing anything just yet. Heh. We ended today with talking about [...]

Today is my father’s birthday. How quickly time flies, for I remember distinctly, that I called him last year at this time and wished him well. Just the same, life hasn’t changed one bit – school, research, anime, book, and life in general. But something must change – else life would be [...]

The presentation went over by 15 minutes, so I missed class completely ~ oh well – I figure we’d still be on the same power point, just moving more down the leg and onto the foot.

January 11, 2006 – Tuesday morning
After being far too nervous and excited to really sleep good, I left home at 5:20 this morning, arriving at the park-n-ride station in downtown Longmont right at the time the bus pulled up at 5:40. The express to Denver! Got on and situated, the lady driver, who was very [...]

Test in one week ~ wonder how hard it’s gonna be … heh. Not sure if I’d make it to class on Wednesday with my Presentation to Dr v K and Dr P. Oh well.

Screw plausible and cohesive story, this is a movie about a man and his kickass car! Jason Statham is back as Frank Martin in Transporter 2, and this time, it’s all about the shiny car and other machines that move. The story starts out with Frank busing around the kid of a wealthy [...]

I tell ya, the Xbox 360 is shortening my lifespan. It’s way too easy to get on Xbox Live and start getting my ass handed to me by better gamers, and I keep going back for more! Ahh… hate having to wake up in 3~4 hours for class in the morning, but [...]

As one of the most popular anime of today, Naruto is going to spawn many many movies – and Snow Princess is the first. To fully enjoy this movie, one might want to be familiar with the characters up until say… episode mmm, 100ish. Well… no, that’s not true ~ just the first [...]

I could swear I wrote something on Princess Tutu a while back when I finished watching the show – but I just can’t find it ~ thus, I’m merely gonna make a note of the anime, and move right along =)
I started watching this due to a strong recommendation from Eternal Velocity @ GameFAQs anime [...]

The Gekko State is low on money, and Eureka is a mama of many kids! It’s not at all glamours as Renton thought it’d be as he camp out in the hanger with a little tent. Wishing to see Holland and Co ref the trapar flow, Renton is becoming more and more agitated [...]

Grandpa is convinced Renton can go, but made hims promise to come back to work as a mechanic. There was some miscommunication here, but all is well. Gekko-Go, Gekko State’s mother ship, is trapped in some airport, and they forcibly leaves to pick up Renton and Eureka. Renton and Grandpa had a [...]

There are a lot of flash backs and sub stories interweaved in each episode that provides a lot of back drop. I won’t go into them. Eureka fights against the military, Renton delivers the Amita Drive. Together in Type Zero’s cockpit, the Amita Drive caused the MS to stall out and Eureka to pass out. [...]
