Hehe... J/k. So, you're all American, eh? Well, I'm not, eh? Can you guess what country I'm from, eh? lol...
Let's see... Run down to speed now...
California - looks like a nice place, want to go there someday. Haven't heard any California jokes (ever, and I'm not kidding... Might be location...), but heard plenty on other places (Newfoundland, Canada, being one - isn't that the most original name? Vikings come over, and suddenly have an inspiration to name that place Newfoundland because it's new found land... Nice name, a bit odd tho... *sigh* the things you learn if you stay awake in history...). Other C-countries - Canada (eh?) and China...

Movies - my reviews, since I've seen too many of them (excuse the kids movies, I tend to get dragged along - I have a younger bro)...
Jurassic Park 3 - could have been better. Much better. It was ok, tho. Other than that, no comment. **/4 stars.
Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - AWESOME!!! Kewlest movie out there thus far. Elijah Wood is one good-looking dude... ;) I forget how many awards they won/were nominated for, but this is one kickarse movie (a bit long tho) - I've seen it twice, it was so good! ****/4 stars.
Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone - umm... Good movie, followed the book... Nice effects... ****/4 stars (no particular reason, it was a good movie!).
Shrek - LOL funny! this movie rocks (just saw it again today - for the 3 millionth time - in class...). I mean it. ****/4 stars.
Ice Age - the only thing good about this movie, besides the imaging, was the prehistoric (and fairly mute) squirrel. Constantly causing trouble accidentally, always just wanting his acorn! Waaay too predictable. ***/4 stars.

Can't think of any more at this moment. Looking 4ward 2 starwars (maybe not that enthusiastically, I'm not a fanatic) but I'm eagerly awaiting LOTR: the two towers. Anyone else think that orlando bloom looked sort of odd as Legolas (but the common opinion around school is that he's cute...) with the wigs?

Ah... Books. Anyone read anything by Tamora Pierce? Anyone read the Hobbit, the Silmarillion or Unfinished Tales by JRR Tolkien (I haven't read any of the Silmarillion or Unfinished Tales, but I want to!)? Any suggestions? (anyone read a book called The Thief, or the Queen of Attolia? great books, they r. I forget the author, tho...)
Anything else I should cover?

Ooo... subject I like to debate: Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
