Sushi? Bleh…

Sushi - California Roll

Sushi - California Roll

Yesterday I went to have some sushi with my sister and her boyfriend for dinner.  I hate the raw stuff, bleh.   I mean, we have ovens!  Use ‘em!  I’d had cucumber rolls and California rolls, and I could have sworn I liked the California ones.  So I ordered them.  Oh, boy I was very wrong!  Bleh, I popped on of those suckers in my mouth and had to plug my nose and swallow!  Trying not to be rude, I had another.  Even worse.  I vow to never have sushi again for as long as I live.  Gross!

What Was Disney Thinking?

“Leo’s Little Big Show”?  Can we say “rip off of a rip off”?  I mean, first was “Mike’s Super Short Show,” which was a good show, good acting and I enjoyed it a lot.  Then comes “The Really Short Report,” which was a total failure.  Sunny Raines?   Woah, you guys are funny!  That’s a knee slapper!!  Now this new show is just weird.  It’s two kids that meet with stars and talk about movies, whilst their father calls for them to do laundry, etc.  It’s official:  They’ve hit desperation. Another strange thing:  What’s up with the “Movie Surfers”?  I swear, there is probably about 10,000 of them!  Every episode there is another cast member or an entire different cast!  Do they quit or is Disney just real picky?  Any thoughts?

Did you know that…?

2009 March 7

When you type, there are actually two spaces after colons and periods? Also, if you were to type initials, you’re supposed to put a space in between  (ex:  J. D.)?  Where have I been?  I’ve always typed one space, and the computer never corrected me. Hmm, ah the wonderful things learned in Tech Found.  Just a little fact I though I’d share.

Cruel Summer Book Review

2009 March 7
by bodiebeth
Cruel Summer by Alyson Noel

Cruel Summer by Alyson Noel

So, I got this book as an Early Reader’s Copy form Librarything.com.  I wrote a review awhile ago, so it’s a few months old, but I thought I might as well post it up on my blog!  So, here goes:  I got the book Cruel Summer by Alyson Noel about two weeks ago,and I have to say, it was phenomenal! Cruel Summer is about a teenage girl who gets shipped off to Greece for the summer, to get away from her parents nasty divorce. At first, she does everything in her power to stay with her popular new friends, but alas, she still must go. As time goes by with her crazy aunt Tally and as she meets a boy, she starts to see life in a new way.
This book is one I’d recommend mainly to teens ages 13-21. It’s got a bit of adult situations in places, but if an older person reads this book, they would not really understand it. For teens, it is very easy to relate to, trying to just find where you fit in, and who you are. The character is a tad whiny in places, but most teens are around the age she is. The book is actually inspirational, because it teaches you how to realize that even if you have to go through lots of crap, you’ll still turn out okay.
In conclusion, this book was amazing and I would recommend it to any teenager or young adult. It is probably up there as one of my favorite books, actually. Take my word for it, and read it. It is out in stores now.

“The Jonas Brothers 3-D Concert Experience” Review

2009 March 6
by bodiebeth

JoBro Movie Poster

This movie was very pleasing to watch for a “JoBro” fan such as myself.  Although, this movie was not as 3-D as one may expect, much like the “Hannah Montana 3-D Concert Experience.”  However, I would say this movie was really good, you got a glimpse into the life of the famous, and how cramped their schedules are.  It starts with “Big Rob” waking the boys up at about 4:30 A.M.  There were screaming fans, parties, and after all is said and done, they are expected to perform a concert!  As much as many of us want to be well-known stars, I don’t think anyone takes into consideration the amount of stress involved.  It might be fun the first few days, but, boy, it’d get old fast!  Anywho, I’m getting off topic.  With all these crazy girls who love them and the 18-19 hour days, you have to have a level of respect for these young artists.  Overall, this movie was worth it.  Definitely a movie I wouldn’t wait for DVD, because it would take away some of the “pizazz” involved.  I would most definitely recommend this movie.
