BirDDay

I'm sorry for not updating the blog, but we had a computervirus. But, it's solved so here I am again.
Yesterday my brother Frank and I visited a demonstration with birds of prey. Wonderfull. Voltures, Owls, hawks, eagles, you name it, they had 'em. Cami and Nikita Capozzo did the show and the have over 300 birds, and many other animals. They have their own website. Check them out on www.aghiabirds.com
Here are some pictures I made:

Lost, final season

The fifth season of "Lost" just ended here in the Netherlands. Very exciting! But we have to wait a very long time for season 6, the final season. In America it will air in early 2010, so here in the Netherlands it will be much later then that. AAAAH! So we have to wait like what, 8 months? So:
- Is Juliet dead?
- What happens after Jacob gets killed?
- Will Daniel be right, the plain never crashes after they bombed the island?
- Will Locke die when he leaves the island again (that part was very confusing)
- Will Kate find Claire?
- Will Sun and Jin find each other again?
- How will Sawyer deal with Juliets eventual death?
- Will Jack and Kate get back together?
- Where is Aaron?
- Will Charlie return (for some reason)?
See, I have a lot of questions. They won't be answered for a long time. I did read that the first two episode names are "LAX part 1 and 2". So it has to do with the airport. So maybe Daniel was right and they will safely land in L.A. I'm ready for their final season, but the creators of "Lost" aren't so.... hurry up. I need my answers!

Sometimes life seems... supernatural

I made a new wallpaper. I had the Andy Roddick wallie up for a very long time. Ever since the Wimbledon final (that he lost.....). This time I made one featuring Sam and Dean Winchester, from the TV show "Supernatural". Great show, my second favourite actually. Here it is:

Summertime, barbecue time!!

Yesterday me and my friends Evelien and Irene had ourselfs a little barbecue. Before we started 'dinner' we played a game of "Settlers of Catan". We play that game a lot. It's so much fun. Evelien won this time, like almost everytime. She's very good at it. Then we prepared for the barbecue. Making salads, cut the bread, etc. It was delicious, becaus we ate a lot!!! After dinner, there were the dishes. That's no fun at all, but later we watched a DVD. I brought "There's Something About Mary". Still the funniest movie ever. Evelien never saw it before, at least not that she remembered. We had a great time yesterday. That's the great thing about a summer holiday, you can spend a lot of time with your best friends! Oh, here are some pictures, so you you can see how much fun we had.

This is me, being silly!



Evelien, she was our cook :)

Movie Tip #36 - A Beautiful Mind

Director: Ron Howard

Starring: Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly, Paul Bettany, Ed Harris

Description: At Princeton University, John Nash (Russell Crowe) struggles to make a worthwhile contribution to serve as his legacy to the world of mathematics. He finally makes a revolutionary breakthrough that will eventually earn him the Nobel Prize. After graduate school he turns to teaching, becoming romantically involved with his student Alicia (Jennifer Connelly). Meanwhile the government asks his help with breaking Soviet codes, which soon gets him involved in a terrifying conspiracy plot. Nash grows more and more paranoid until a discovery that turns his entire world upside down. Now it is only with Alicia's help that he will be able to recover his mental strength and regain his status as the great mathematician we know him as today.

Review: This is one of my top five movies! It's fantastic. Crowe plays the role of John Nash perfectly, so intense. I never understood how he could win an oscar for "Gladiator" and not win it for "A Beautiful Mind". This is his best role ever. And Jennifer Connelly, who did win an Academy Award for this film, does a great job also. She's a very good actress. It is a beautiful movie, worth your while.

Entourage

Recently I've really been into "Entourage". It's about a big movie star, Vincent Chase, and his entourage. It has a lot of humour in it, it's pure entertainment. I love this show. My favourite character is Eric Murphy, the manager. He's loyal, smart, funny and also very cute!!! Ari Gold is magnificent. He's such an asshole, but you love him anyway! And Johnny "Drama" Chase is brilliant. Always living in the shadow of his brother Vince. Ari's assistant Lloyd is just hilarious, Shauna is kick ass and Turtle is very funny! To be honest, Vince is my least favourite character, but that's just me. Go check out this show if you've never seen it before. It's terrific!!!

Movie Tip #35 - He's Just Not That Into You

Director: Ken Kwapis

Starring: Ginnifer Goodwin, Justin Long, Jennifer Aniston, Ben Affleck, Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Connelly, Drew Barrymore, Kevin Connolly, Scarlett Johansson

Description: In Baltimore, five women and four men try to sort out the signals that the sexes exchange. Gigi (Ginnifer Goodwin) imagines every man she meets is Mr. Right; she gets reality checks from Alex (Justin Long), a sweet but cynical saloon keeper. Janine (Jennifer Connelly) and Ben (Bradley Cooper) seem solidly married until he chats with Anna (Scarlett Johansson) in a market checkout line; meanwhile Anna is indifferent to the pursing Connor (Kevin Connolly). Neil (Ben Affleck) and Beth (Jennifer Aniston) have been together seven years; she dumps him when she realizes he really and truly isn't going to marry her. Does he love her? And Mary (Drew Barrymore) sells advertising while searching on line for a man. Will those in love stay in love? Will those searching figure out who is and who isn't into them? Are men all that different from women?

Review: I really wanted to see this movie ever since I saw its trailer. And I loved it. I've always been a big fan of multiple storyline movies. My favourite was the one with Gigi and Alex. I also loved Beth, she's so sweet and I really felt sorry for her. Just like I felt sorry for Janine. I didn't really like Scarlett Johansson in this film, because she didn't really convince me here. Normally I love her, but now I didn't. And her character is very annoying as well. But the complete picture of this film measures up to my expectations. I really enjoyed watching it. For fans of the genre they should really check it out.
