Early on a Sunday morning

So I slept for 5.5 hours and my body decided to wake up.  So since it did that I decided to get jump on my school work.  I'm doing very well in my Computer Apps class and learning a lot in a 6 week span.  As for this Music Lit course, It am just about lost.  I just don't get this instructor's format.  I'm trying to keep up, but it's kind of rough.  The funny thing is that it is actually less work that the computer class.  Pretty confusing.

I'm going to keep at it, but I don't think I will achieve that great of a grade.  As long as I pass is my theory on this one.  Late last week my wife asked if I could take a break from school work and I thought it was odd given she was the main one pushing to do this, but she was right.  Other than work and sleep, this is the only other thing I do most of the time.  So much, I neglect the housework some days.  Still trying to balance this out.

Only 2 weeks left for this semester.  Kind of wished I picked up another class, thinking on that.

Just checked out Super 8.  I will admit I was not initially interested in this movie.  Had a tough time figuring out what it could be about.  Given that the movie was written and directed by J.J. Abrams and Spielberg was involved, it could be about anything. The only thing that got me wanting to see this film was because of J.J.  I have been a fan of his work since Alias.  I watched and love the shows Lost & Fringe and I even enjoyed Undercovers until NBC decided to drop it.

The film was pretty good.  I would say it was intense and comical (The one blond kid was especially funny).  People say it was like Goonies.  I failed to see that comparison.  Even though the film kept my attention during my zoned out state, the main thing that kept going through my mind was, "What does the title have to do with what's going on?"  That was answered later on.

Pretty much I would say this film was ok.  It was good that didn't over hype it.  That would probably make the movie a bit disappointing.  The soundtrack was pretty cool though.

I give it a B-/C+.  Typical film working with Spielberg.

Burn Notice and Wipeout Returns!

So the summer is here and it is time for the networks to release their previous summer hits and try some new shows.  With my limited schedule I will only take in 3 season premieres and 3 series premieres.  The new seasons include Louie, Wipeout and my favorite show, Burn Notice. 

Louie fell last summer from my DVR due to limited time (as usual), but I decided to give it a second chance.  Now missed a season and usually I would not try the show again, but I'll try.  No promises. 

Wipeout also returns after playing half of the 2010-2011 season with Winter and Spring versions, which in my opinion was very enteraining.  Hope they continue it.  Now the main summer show is back and looks even more challenging than before.

As for my new #1 show on my favorite network, Burn Notice returns and I'm sure with great new missions/jobs.  This show will never be dropped from my DVR.

New series include Expedition Impossible from the makers of Wipeout.  The host, on an interview, says this show is more extreme than The Amazing Race.  We shall see.

USA's new show Suits also starts this week.  It seems like it will be an interesting show as it features a kid who is a prodigy and says he is able to do court cases with out a degree.

The final series is Wilfred on FX.  This show stars Elijah Wood (Lord Of The Rings Trilogy) as a guy who sometimes watches a dog who happens to be a guy in a dog suit or at least that's how I take it so far.  It seems disturbing, yet intriguing.  I'm not sure how I'll feel about this show, but I'll give it a try.

I don't for see holding on to all these shows, but it will be fun to see how they go.

Surprise, surprise!

Compter Lab and Bulletin Board assignments are complete, but now our instructor had realized that she didn't now open up 2 exams to us.  Now we have those to complete by Saturday night.  Man, this is going to be a busy weekend with those and the Music Lit assignments I need to complete.

Oh yeah!  And there is housework to be done.  I need to get a better system going here.

Oh well.  Got to get to it!
