So, right now, as I listen to Knights of Cydonia, I feel like i have this great idea for a music video.
So we're going to go by the LIVE version off HAARP. So while they start, we open on a sparce moon. In space, as it goes on, we zoom out on to a whole solar system, then when Matt does his second ad lib vocal things, we go back in, and tyhe planet explodes. As the hymn breaks forth, we follow specs of the planet along the rings of planets and galaxies. Rings of light FLASH in different colors, and the clouds churn. We move to chunks of the planet smashing in to others as ateroids, leaving destruction in their wake. Again, we see Matt's face and loom out onto the band. We go over the band, as we near the end of the song we seen the band on multiple planets, all ow them about to explode as well. Then Matt bids farewell and BANG.

Duh DUh Duh Duh DUH
So on Tuesday night I was able to see the new Star Trek movie.
It was one of the few movies in recent memory that has actually impressed me.
The special effects were below par. (In the golf sense. Which means good, for you retards.)
The acting was rarely, if ever, cheesy. Although, at first I thought the casting wasn't very good, I was proved wrong. All of the actors were picked very well. The plot was not too simple, yet not engulfed with ancient Star Trek references. For anyone who has watched the old series, there are many subtle quotes and references. The movie came in at about 2 hours, a little longer with all of the credits. There were 2 or 3 scenes with deep space encounters. These scenes, while not as grand as those in Star Wars, were very well done, and exciting. The camera gives the viewer a sense of feeling you cannot get while watching a fleet of Rebel starships in SW.
The Enterprise is shown as a state of the art ship, which it always was in the show.
As for the plot details, I won't go into those, although there are enough plot twists that you stay interested without getting lost in the midst.
Overall, I would give the movie a rating of 8 out of 10.

Time for Jon Math
Here is my plan for reaching 1300$ by the end of May.
300$ from the parents. First time they'll give me more than ten dollars.
200+ dollars from Park St.
150$ from selling things on Craigslist.com. I've got a stationary bike, Air Hockey table, large dog crate, and a the legos sold for 70$
100+ from this blog. Keep it up! Stay interested.
Then I would need 550$ more.
I've 100$ currently. So that brings it down to 440$. So I would need to work only 7 days with my fajah at 60$ a day. Which leaves 20$ to find somewhere else, or just work more which I will probably do anyways because I need money.
So, all I need to do is sell more stuff, work, and get more people to read this stuff.
Also, last night I ordered a little usb mixer. It was only 50$ so I was like, "Why the hell not?"
NB. Legos sold aready. So thats minus 70$ from the end total.
Update. Lady bought my old Bionicles too. So thats 110 of the total. Only 1090 to go.

The Current Season
I'm not sure if this is just me, but the current season of 24 is just plain boring. Half of it is just blah, blah, blah. Then there's the occasional suprise. But all in all, its not very exciting or well written. I'm just disappointed with the show. It used to be so good. Now, its just an evening drama.

Friday.
Also, Friday was an epic fail.
No concert. I was out 32 dollars, and barely made it on the train. I had 52 cents in my pocket after I got on. So yeah, it was a good day.

Billy
So, I was looking through some pictures. And I started to laugh, because, well, has it ever happened to you, that someone tells you something. they say they'll never do it. You really want them to. Not sex or something like that, more..I dont want to say memorable, but more sentimental. And then maybe a year later, maybe ten, you see that they've done it, without you.
It doesn't make me feel bad, I don't know about you. But it's just...funny. It's funny how people change, or how they don't.
So all of this to say, I think I can see why Billy Corgan IS the Smashing Pumpkins. He doesn't care what people say, what people do, or what they listen to. If you listen, awesome. If you don't, fuck it. He doesn't care. He doesn't ACTUALLY know. So that's kind of how I feel now. I don't care if you wanna hang out, if you want to talk on the phone. I don't give a damn. Just don't waste my time.
You already took 8 months. And I don't regret it, but it could've been less.
So if you listen or read, I don't care. Just don't come to me and tell me I've changed, that I'm the one with the problem. It's only a problem if I say so. Otherwise, it's YOUR problem.
And if you have a problem, don't come running to me! Not that you would.

Last night's show
So the show last night was... badass. The first band, Fireworks, was from Detroit. They were pretty good for a band that got on the list last minute, and off, and back on. I dont know the names of any of their songs, but they would be worth checking out if you're into most pop punk bands.
After them was Set Your Goals. They were great. I had only head the song on the '08 Warped comp, This Song is Definately Not About You, but they were really good. I did'nt know they have two singers. I assumed one would play another instument and sing. But having two singers lets the move around alot more, and be more energetic. So all in all, they were very good.
Then was the band I was most looking forward to, Bayside. First of all, before the show, while waiting for some friends, I ran into Jack O'Shea. Got a chance to talk to him again and ask him about checkin out a cd when it's all done. So that was really cool. But for their set, it was amazing. I was right in the front (and for SYG too). But I caught a pick from Anthony, and got the set list at the end. (Thanks to the crowd-surfer-catcher guy.) So their set is as follows; Shitty, Boy, Walking Wounded, Unicorns, then Anthony started playing a New Found Glory song, but stopped. What a tease. After Unicorns came Carry On, then Roshambo, Masterpiece, Duality Montauk, Blame, and the last song, where everyone went insane, Devotion and Desire.
So all in all, they were amazing. I was slightly disapointed they didnt play I and I, but oh well.
Last up was NFG, I had seen them before with Senses Fail on halloween. For their set, we moved up to the balcony cuz my arm hurt and I was tired of being humped by the guy behind me. So while we were up there, I ran into the bassist for The Appreciation Post (check them out). After that, ran into Anthony up by the merch, got my new Bayside hat signed by him and he said he would also be down to check out the cd when it's done.
I don't really know many songs by New Found Glory, but they were good. And their bassist was just funny to look at. He's a fat guy anyway, but he had no shirt on, and looked like he had sharpie on his chest, but it might have been tats. I don't know.
For 19$ I can't complain. I've got the AP tour tonight. Its the last day so I'm hoping they go all out. I'll put up a rundown of that later tonight.
