Short Story: It was good...
Long Story: It was really F*cking good. All the actors were great, special effects were awesome, storyline was well written, GO SEE THIS MOVIE! The only thing I didn't like about it was that they did the same thing they did to King Kong: they made it into a love story. Not that chick flicks are bad, but when I go to the theater to see Superman, I don't want to see a love triangle. *SPOILER* Superman leaves for 5 years and Lois Lane gets married in his absence. *SPOILER ENDS*. That sounds more like Days of our Lives to me.
Now to the part where I may get a little controversial. Has anyone else who has seen this movie noticed it blatantly portrays Superman as Christ? Here are my reasons: 1) Every time he falls, his body drifts into a position not unlike that of Christ on the cross. 2) He gets stabbed right where the Spear of Destiny stabbed Christ. 3) He's a Son sent to mankind by his Father to save mankind from itself. Sound familiar? And finally, 4) He "dies" to save mankind but is resurrected. But, not only is Superman Jesus, people are going around saying that he's gay in this movie. SO-FRIGGIN-WHAT? Should it matter? Why can't we have a Gay idol? I don't think there's any good reason.
I wonder what the Catholic church will do now that we have a movie portraying a gay Jesus? Maybe they'll try to prove that Jesus did have a kid to prove it untrue...
"COME ON, PEOPLE! We need to De-homo Jesus STAT!"
yah know, you used to go to hell for that kinda stuff...
I always relish the after-movie talk. You know, the one you always have as you're leaving the theatre? Well, this time my dad and I were talking about what it must be like to be married to Lois Lane and live in Superman's shadow...How can you live up to the fucking Man of Steel?
and as we always do, we mocked the characters from the movie...Here's the discussion as well as I can remember it.
-"You know, honey, Superman used to fly me to India."
-"Sweetheart, you know we can't afford plane tickets right now..."
-"Superman never worried about money"
-"Superman this, Superman that. Well, if Superman was so friggin perfect why'd you marry ME?"
-"He always left the toilet seat up."
and then, after the movie, we had to go to Rite Aid for some bathroom stuff, and in the shaving aisle I saw a hair removal product called "Aussie Nad's"...Think about it for a second...
Seriously, though, all the razorblades were in those locked glass boxes...I call them "bullshit boxes" because you shouldn't have to deal with them.
That's all for tonight, signing off.

No excuse this time...
I'm just lazy. Sorry for the lack of updates...
Not too much going on...Summer is fun! My friends and I keep getting together each week to hang out, and it's a riot most of the time.
I beat Metroid Prime 2! I liked the ending, it was just vauge enough that they can do whatever they want with the story...
*sigh* It's really odd, for quite some time now I've had this weird feeling of being unaccomplished, and I don't know why...So I'm sitting down for a couple hours each day to sit and think, and try to figure out something I can do to make this feeling go away...
bbye...

The Return
As unfortunate as it is, I'm back, with lots of news.
First off, I got a perfect score on that Lit essay, which is good, because it turned out to be worth 200 points. Then, I managed to pull off my presentation in History, and got a perfect on that too. I also beat Metroid Prime 2 and wrote a Metroid fanfiction...I'll post it later, maybe.
Aikido was pure pwnage on wednesday night. Not many people came, so sensei joined the fun, and we did all kinds of disarmament and stuff, including Rondoori(spelling?), which is constant sparring between two attackers and a defender. REALLY FUN...but also exhausting. We also did throwing someone with their own sword...that was cool too.
I'm now going to celebrate the return of my computer by drowing myself in Guild Wars.

In other news, I'm just a little bit excited it being summer and all. More news about STUFF to come soon, but right now my primary computer is down(why I didn't update w/ a post like this one when school ACTUALLY got out) and I'm stuck using the clunker that dates back to 1999. This thing needs to be put out of it's misery. Literally. (sorry, too much mad TV since school is out....)

Jeez...
Sorry for the delay in updating. As I've said, lotsa crap going on in school these weeks. Thankfully, I didn't have any finals today, because there isn't a health final and my class took the Spanish final on Thursday of last week. So both my classes were basically just goofing off the whole time.
However, my health class was a little uncomfortable, because we had a guest speaker to talk to us about STD's for TWO WHOLE HOURS. Nothing against her as a person, but Gonorrhea isn't THAT interesting. It got worse, though. When asked how elastic condoms were, she replied: "Well, I've seen one stretch over someone's whole fist before". There was dead silence throughout the whole room. Then she passed around a female condom and it was like this tiny storm cloud of awkwardness traveling through the whole room...
The mind boggles...
Still, if that's the worst thing I have to go through before school is over, I'm fine...
also, be on the lookout for a new addition to the webcomic scene, an adaptation of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy(a slight parody), written by me and illustrated by a friend. It's just a brainchild right now, but we plan to start work on it very soon.
thanks!

Argh..
What an absolutely disgusting week. Lots of homework, teachers rushing, etc.
I'm sorry for not updating more often, but I'll do better over the summer.
Whee! We got our yearbooks yesterday! I really like the idea of yearbooks and the whole signature thing. I didn't really make my signature uniform though, I think I signed with at least 7 different signatures... I'm one of those people who writes a really long note instead of a short "Have a nice summer!". I think that's too cliched, but if course, if noone does it b/c they think it's cliched, then it'll eventually stop being cliched, won't it? I probably won't update over the weekend, I'm gonna be real busy.
If you hadn't noticed, I'm kinda regressing into chat speak b/c I'm teaching myself to touch-type b/c right now I usually type with two fingers. The two fingers of DOOM!
-corbel(seems to be my nickname now) out

Looks like we lived through 6/6/06
I just love tapping into people's religious paranoia.
gosh, I guess it WASN'T REALLY THE APOCALYPSE! WHO'DA THUNK IT?
this is a very small update, because I have a gigantic essay that I'm in the middle of revising. I had two people edit it, and then I took my teacher himself up on his offer of editing it. That was a good idea. He started editing it and was shaking his head and muttering the whole time. I guess I have some work to do...
also, there was a fire near my house today. They're saying it was a car that exploded in a parking garage, but I know the truth. The police just don't want to admit that they have unleashed pyromaniac SARS-infested monkeys with the sole aim of destroying our valuable parking garages

No Aikido tonight
Sigh...I don't get to go to aikido tonight. My mom is away and we couldn't leave my little brother alone, so I offered to stay home with him.
lotsa homework over the weekend, so I didn't get a chance to post. I had to write up a lab for bio and write a 3 page paper for lit...It seems like many of my teachers are really packing on the work this week.
I also picked up a copy of my school's annual literary magazine, and frankly, I feel inferior. All the artwork and poetry is sooo much better than anything I've done...Although, it's weird, one person(whom I don't know) had a drawing that was really similar to something I drew before the magazine was published...Both pictures had a coiling monster attacking the occupants of a jagged, triangular cliff. I know that sounds really general, but the resemblance is kinda creepy.

The post I couldn't think of a title for
It was an okay day, I guess. Nothing out of the ordinary happened.
*bleh*
I would almost prefer to have a bad day rather than a day that is so incredibly bland.
actually, now that I think about it, we did start dissecting frogs on Bio...That was fun, but otherwise my day was ordinary and boring.
Has anybody heard of the band "Wolfmother"?
They're really good...But out of my extremely small number of readers, I suspect that probably 0.00004504% have even heard of them, so it's really just me being unrealistic.

MORE WORMS!!
We finished dissecting the worms today! It was fun, but it didn't last long enough. Oddly enough, I find myself looking forward to when we may dissect fetal pigs next week.
My friend brought a whole box of latex gloves, and so of course, all the slackers who didn't bring their own just mooched off us. But then when we finished, what were we gonna do with all the used gloves? Well, we couldn't just throw them out, so my friend had the idea of making water balloons out of them. He filled one up from a faucet, took it outside, and lobbed it. As he threw it, however, it streched out to like three feet long because of centrifugal force acting on the water inside. Then it hit the ground, and looked like an elongated, gargantuan slug hitting the pavement(if you can imagine that) for a few seconds before it burst and made a huge puddle. It was a RIOT!
So, of course, we had to try it again. However, this time, our choice of gloves was not so great. As my friend was carrying it to the door to throw it outside, I noticed a telltale leak spurting out of the index finger, and another one coming from the glove's wrist. I semi-yelled "Mario! SINK!!" and grabbed the glove. Seriously, i was holding it in the sink when it burst. If I had been a second later, it would have burst all over the floor.
Namaste
