Kel's Ramblings & Whatnots

So G and I went to Disneyland on Friday. It was very hot and very crowded. Because we weren't pressured to do everything (we have passes and will be back in December) we just enjoyed being there and did what we wanted.

We had lunch in Downtown Disney and went to a movie, Where the Wild Things Are. Now, I understand this is about a kid's imagination and it's been years since I read the book but...I really didn't like it. The monsters were cool but so much of what happened on the island made no kind of sense and the kid was obnoxious and all I wanted to do was hit him the whole time and the ending was lame.

Personally, not a kids movie. Very dark and I don't think they'd get it. Adults will be bored, IMO. I was through most of it! And I had hopes of really liking this too.

So...yeah.

I logged onto my hunter tonight only to see that my Oracle egg had hatched. I whispered to myself "proto-drake vibes, proto-drake vibes" before I opened it...and I got the drake! OMG!

My very first drake, I'm so excited about it! I think I yelled out loud!
Then, shortly after, I got an unexpected invite to Ulduar! Me, that's barely learning heroics right now, got invited to Ulduar. I had to do a rush install of Vent, and a crash course on the fights, but I don't think I did too bad. The places I died other people died too, LOL. We had to call it on Mimiron (a couple people lost internet connection) but we're going back in tomorrow.

I was taking screenshots like a fool and I liked this one of us flying back into the instance after a wipe.

I know Ulduar is old hat for most of you, but this is the first 10-man I've ever been in and I was giddy like a little kid in a candy store. ;) And because the people I was in there with are now my new guild, I'm hoping there is a lot of fun stuff in store for me!

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY

ladyhijinx! HOPE YOUR DAY IS GREAT!

I dragged the boyfriend with me to see ND last night. As always, the concert was great fun! They put on such an awesome show, and we had a great view.

G didn't know much of ND's music before last night; I've turned him into a fan! He's told me he would definitely go see them again. He loved Gwen's energy!

The final song was great; Shirley Manson came on to help sing Stand and Deliver, and then the opening group, The Sounds, came on as well as duplicates of the band. It was crazy fun!

Current Mood: excited

OMG This movie was funny as hell!

Current Mood: cheerful

Not a great movie by any means, but spooky. Great twist at the end, which is always a good thing.

Current Mood: still hot

I love Simon Pegg, but this wasn't great. Glad I didn't waste a Netflix rental on it.
It does have a good message in it though.

Current Mood: hot

I'm not going to rave about it, because I don't think it was good enough to rave about. Not bad though. It just felt like stuff was missing, but I can't exactly put my finger on what. It's been a while since I read the book!

Current Mood: sleepy

Sure, the premise is far-fetched (Or is it?), but still an exciting one to watch. Grabs you with action early on and doesn't let go. Plus, Shia is just too cute not to watch. :)

My only question: WTH happened to the necklace and the trumpet?

Current Mood: calm

Current Mood: bouncy

Whew. Long title, long movie!
Wasn't horrible, had some great actors doing some great acting, and a compelling story, just a slow-mover. I liked the narration, helped me understand the characters better. I learned a lot, actually!

Current Mood: amused

Current Mood: restless

I regretted not buying this DVD when G and I saw Rent a few months back. When I saw it at Target, there was no hesitation; into my basket it went.

Absolutely, absolutely amazing. I still get chills, I still laugh, I still cry. If you have not seen RENT, or have only seen the movie, PLEASE watch this. The movie is good, but there is nothing like seeing the stage version. And if you can't go to the theatre to see it, this is the next best thing.

Current Mood: contemplative

Typical Friday the 13th. People have sex. People die. People survive. More entertaining than scary.

Current Mood: blah

Twenty minutes was all it took for us to get the gist of this. Umm....yeah.

Current Mood: dirty

I watched Seasons 1 and 2 with the BF, even though I'd already seen them.
It's just that awesome.

Current Mood: calm

Hello?

Current Mood: confused

Since I recently added HBO (for free) to my channel line-up, I've been recording movies I haven't seen, even if they were movies I hadn't originally thought I'd ever watch. Kit was one of those movies. I quite enjoyed it, actually! Great actors, and a fun, heartwarming story.
