WALL-E is by far the best Pixar movie ever made. It honestly connected with me on an emotional level that I don't think most movies can even come close to. Imma write a more imdepth review on my wordpress blog in like a day or so.
My sister, brother in law and nephew moved in on friday and it's been fine so far.
Works been weak sauce lately, I've been making alittle over minimum wage. I'm working fourth of july, so hopefully that'll mean some $$$.
I managed to get off this weekend, so I'm going up to Baltimore city with Sarah and Amos to visit our good friend Nikoli for belated birthday shennanigans, then up to Westminster to see Marina because it's our six month anniversary (!). There will be dinner/romance carrying over until sunday. So good times |

Kingdom of The Crystal Skull is far and away the best movie of the summer and I don't think that's going to change, even after Dark Knight comes out. Fantastic movie, it was like pure Spielberg geek happiness. I still want to see Speed Racer, no idea when that's going to happen.
Current summer blockbusters seen: (3) Iron Man, Narnia, Indiana Jones.
I'm home now, have a bunch of leads on jobs and I'll know by this morning if I'm working at Clark's in the mall. I really need to clean my room/unpack, but one usually cancels out my ability to do the other.
The trip to Hammond was equal parts nice and awkward. I'm really enjoying hanging out with everyone, despite the constant bickering and me missing Marina terribly. Hopefully I'll get up to Westminster to see her soon.
My dad's doing better, he seems to be recovering well and I'm less worried about him, which feels nice. And a milestone was reached in the Mom/Guy vs. Max conflict, also great.
I've started burning through cash pretty quickly, which I need to stop. I've spent like $60 since I've been home, so I need to chill on that until I start working. I'm fine on money and I'm getting another paycheck, but I don't want to end up like winter break where I was poor ass broke all month because I kept counting on paychecks.
Still, this summer's off to a good start. |

Previously, on MAX:
*This year's Valentine's day was easily the best one I've ever had. The girl and I went out to dinner and then watched the copy of Knocked Up she bought me. I did the traditional "flowers and chocolate", but threw in a poem for good measure. I was pretty pleased with myself.
*Marina and I went to see Seven Samurai at the Carroll County Arts center on friday and I loved it so much that I've borrowed Throne of Blood, Yojimbo and Rashomon in order to get the proper Kurasawa experience.
*Saturday, I had to get up at 8 to go with my Sci Fi in Film class to some kind of Sci Fi convention. Normally, you'd figure this thing would be up my alley, but the lack of comics and the fact that our professor made us stay for like EIGHT HOURS pretty much killed the enthusiasm. Still, I walked away with some comics and got to go to a Chipotle.
*With spring break approaching, I seem to be the only person with no plans. I'm pretty sure everyone's break is different from mine, which spans from 14th of march to the 23rd. Am I correct in this assumption?
*The first Indiana Jones trailer has me cautiously optimistic. Along with Iron Man, Dark Knight, and Star Trek (I think that comes out this summer?), this is going to be a good summer for movies. |
