The calm after the storm

Well ever since my last post thing have been going a lot better, I admit I over-reacted on my most recent post but thats what mood-swings will do to you haha. Anyway well this has the best thanksgiving ever because my best friend Pat came back from MSM in Maryland for thanksgiving. Oh man it was just like old times but it seems we both got some more experiences under our belts this time. The worst part of it though is that he is going back to Maryland tomorrow morning, of course there is some things I can look forward to like in three week (i think) I will be on Christmas break along with everyone else and Pat will be back home again YES! So on a side note I think that my parents realized that the might have over-reacted on their restrictions on the car, so I have been doing quite a bit of driving the past few days but tomorrow morning its back on the bus. Not because I can’t use the car its because I have a bus card and it would be stupid if I didn’t use it to save gas, it is also nice to know if I want to sleep some more I could just take my car. I had a funny thought that it might be interesting to have a cooking show. Nothing fancy though it would probably be just me in regular clothes in my kitchen thinking of some elaborate stuff to make with all the shit in the fridge/pantry... [time lapse]... sorry my timer went off for my oven, I decided to make a crispy chicken salad because I was not feeling like having a plain salad with dressing, and I remembered I can use the red pepper I used for my omelet this morning. Anyway I don’t want to sit here talking about my eating habits... [another time lapse]... WOW so phil came upstairs telling me the chicken I was baking was “bad” he then showed some chicken he microwaved and threw it away because of the “bad spots” I further investigate for about 2 seconds and said that it wasn’t “bad” just uncooked. He said that my mom said that it was already cooked and then grabbed the bag and pointed at the bold letters “uncooked”. Jeez sometimes I think I got both of our brains. I can say that I have done nothing all day today, which includes homework, but it is nice to lay around the house every once in a while. I am pretty sure there is more I want to say but I am sure it will come to me later, so just a reminder I got my phone back so be sure to text me 541-247-4723

Alls well does not end well

I dont even know where to start! So today was going just fine until my parents decide, once again, to demonstrate that they are dictators. So I get my car back finally! You think I would be happy but with the terms the put on it they might as well have never given it back to me. They say that I have a good reason for driving and to not only go driving for fun and I see one major flaw in this I NEVER DRIVING FOR FUN! I am always driving some where. They say I can can use it about once a week, and I am already thinking that they are being more harsh than when I was first able to drive. So my first question is WHY? and they say that they want me to spend more time at home. Really? or you serious? you had 18 years to spend more time with me and now you want to try and make it up by making me stay home when I want to be some where else, don’t think that this will change anything. So this conversation goes on for about a minute and I am starting to give some good critiques on how stupid this sounds. And I know that they knew this because they said some thing like, “well by the way you are talking to us I don’t think you have learned anything and maybe we should just continue to take away stuff so I shut my mouth. As the car ride home went on I kept getting more stressed out and angry because I had this constant image of a bitch in a choke chain. Obvious that bitch was my and when ever my “owners” thought I was getting hostile they would yank on the choke chain till I shut up. And I am sitting there thinking I AM NOBODIES BITCH! but me being my pathetic stupid self I just kept quiet. I am sorry if some of this doesn’t make sense I am kind of emotional right now... This bitch needs some words of comfort right now..... oh and happy thanksgiving everyone... and by the way I got my phone back so text it up 651-247-4723

Fantastic Mr. Steve

So wow! I mean WOW! I saw the funniest/greatest movie ever.... It is called Fantastic Mr. Fox! If you are not a douche and you love life you will absolutely love this movie as much as I did. I don't want to ruin the movie for anyone reading this, but something I am definitely taking away from this movie is I am replacing the F word with “cuss”. If you watch the movie you will know what I am talking about. I went to see the movie with Aaron and Lizz because we were watching Castle in the Sky and everyone was getting really distracted so I was commenting on how I was excited to see Fantastic Mr. Fox. which said it was coming out on thanksgiving, but I had a feeling that it was already out so I check the interweb AKA Google and I found out it was playing at 12:01 AM at AMC Roseville so we stopped the movie no one was watching and decided to go see... BEST decision ever, it was totally worth it! One thing that really pissed me off in the beginning of the movie was a trailer for a new jackie chan movie where he is a babysitter and I am not like W! T! F! when did Jackie chan become a sell out? anyway that was my two cents. This is Stephen Cross signing out...

Mine played on the double feature screen, yours went straight to DVD

November 24, 2009
So from the last post I visited the U of M to chill with Aaron and hang with Catherine a little later. These people are also coming over tonight with Lizz and (This is what I heard) maybe Michaella to see a double feature for Miyazaki night because since we all have nothing special going on tomorrow we decided to fit an extra movie for our enjoyment. And also because I didn’t want the night to end with Nausica and the valley of the Wind because personally that is my least favorite Miyazaki, but I still like none the less. I am just worried because after Princess Moninoke Lizz and Catherine voiced their distaste for violence, which sadly Nausica has and the plot will most likely not catch their attention, but now that I think about it since Phil won’t be there for the first film maybe they won’t be destracted which Phil is good at doing by striking up a conversation in the middle of the movie and most likely during a very important part UG! So hopefully the the first film won’t leave a bad taste in there mouth *fingers crossed*. For the second film we will be watching Kiki’s delivery service, I think, which I know will be a good way to end the night, because from what I remember it is a good movie. Well if any of you are reading this I will see you tonight =]

Update:
Due to lack of communication phil failed to mention that he could not get the movies so we will be watching castle in the sky and whatever we can spur up for the second film.

New Moon and such

Well it has been two day since my last post, and not a lot has happened but there are a couple of things that are blog worthy. I watched New Moon yesterday afternoon with Andrew, since I watched Twilight for the first time this weekend also I believe New Moon was a better movie altogether. And for those who are reading this and are like “Queer!” thats not fair to me because its not like I read the books and watch the movie over and over. And Im not like OMG! every time I see Edward or Jakob, I just watched it because me and Andrew wanted to see what all of the hubbub is about and if someone starts talking about I can actually contribute to the conversation except for just standing there nodding my head. So those who despise this series don’t hate me for watching it! So last night I was talking to Martin and he was like “Why dont you post anymore?” I was happy to see this because it shows that some one actually has interest in what I say. I told him I would do it first thing in the morning on the bus ride to college. Then he said “Good, because I like the MLIA and song you post.” MAJOR BUZZKILL! I told him the point of the blog was to post blogs and that if he want to read MLIA he can go to the website and read them himself. And the songs.... YOU OWN MOST OF THE SONGS I PLAY! So at this point I am mad because its like telling some one that you went of to their house to not talk to them but to watch a show on their TV. It would make you mad too! I read Catherine's blog and its like she read my mind. She talk about how she is wondering if she will be any good for the major she chose in college, and I would just like to say that I think the same way, and with this in mind I still try my best in college hoping for the best. If you want to read Catherine’s blog about this her blog is http://catnoble.blogspot.com/ .

The morning after Twilight

My favorite thing to do while walking to the bus stop now is to look at the squirrels because the are fattening up for winter, they look so funny and... well... FAT! Anyway, So last night Andrew and I watched Twilight (don’t hate the player hate the game), I don’t know what Andrew thought about it but I know I liked it, and I am pretty sure he found it somewhat watchable or else he would have made it known. At the end we both agreed that the way it ended left a bad taste in our mouth that could be resolved with New Moon, but sadly Andrew did not have any money so we ended up not going =’[. I have decided that in the next three days I will be switching to blogspot.com where my new URL will be: http://stephentcross.blogspot.com/ So I will be starting to move recent post to this one until I the are all moved. One of the main reasons is because I am kinda tired of maintaining a home page and all that jazz because the main reason for this site was for the blog. One other I would like to say is that Edward and Bella’s relationship is very interesting... I know it works in the movie but in real life we would see this as: Edward in love with bella because she is a “drug” to the vampires, and I think she just likes the thought of someone being addicted to her. And this is all covered by the illusion of true love. There is my two cents, but otherwise as I always say, “It’s just a movie, it’s not suppose to make perfect sense in real life standards.”

Its all over!(November 19, 2009)

YES! Well I was able to finish my Art History paper in time, but the problem that arose was that I totally forgot about a website post that was due tuesday, so wednesday morning I was freaking out (for the fifth time this week). but luckily I pleaded for her to give me another chance because I never intended to not do the post and asked her for another chance to do the post.... And it worked I was able to do the post today and I think I did the best post I have ever done because I have been pretty much a workaholic for the past two days to get all my homework done in time. I only have had 5 hours of sleep for the past two nights so I am sort too excited on caffeine to go to bed now. But I am really happy because I got a good grade on my online economy test which was the last piece of work I needed to do today. On a sad note is that tomorrow my pre-calculus class is getting a take test to do over the weekend. THE EXCITEMENT IS OVERWHELMING. Well.... Not excitement but something is definitely overwhelming.
