IKEA

Ikea is one of those places that you are attracted to walk into but then you dont even know why you walked in once your in the middle of the store. In the middle of the store is about the tim eyou say "how the hell do you get out of this place and why did i even walk into here?". Well anyways me and my girlfriend were shopping for a desk and chair for her new room this weekend and we ended up getting both items at IKEA. It has to be one of the biggest stores around with the most selection and the prices are very, very good on everything, but where is all the help? You have to take a ticket yourself and then go find it in this big ass factory part of the store. I think the main reason why people are so attracted to walking into IKEA is becasue of that cinnamon smell. As soon as i walk into broadway mall it tingles my nostrils and i enter the wacky sweish world of IKEA.

USAAAAAAAAAAAAA

The gold medal game is tommorow. Usa versus Canada? yes i said that right. Can anyone believe that USA is here, really. Before the olympics began i didnt even think we would be competing for a bronze medal let alone a gold. The last time that we won gold in mens ice hockey was in 1980 during one of the biggest if not the biggest upsets in modern day sports. It was even nicknamed the "Miracle on Ice". So now here we are exactly thirty years later and we can do it again. It may not be as big a deal as it was in 1980 but hey, why not act like it is? USA hockey is back on the map so look out.

The Green Mile

I was flicking through the channels and saw the Green Mile on TV. I remember everyone and their mother talking about that show years ago and i have never seen it so i watched it. I dont really like movies that are so far fetched that they are unbelieveable, and what can be more far fetched than a big black man who heals people in prison? I really dont understand how this movie did good so good and won so many awards. The actors in it are pretty good but the story line is so stupid. As soon as it ended i knew that this was going to be a blog conversation. Kinda makes me feel like im a movie critic, maybe these blogs wont be so bad if i look at it that way.

Olympics< American Idol? Really?

I love the olympics and so should everyone. Its your country how can you not watch?. Its truly pathetic that American Idol had higher ratings last night than the olympics. A bunch of no name talents that go sing in front of a bunch of no name judges. Before the show began Can you honestly tell me you knew who Simon and Randy were. Im not taking anything away from the singers some of them really do have talent but i just think the olympics is one of the most important activities in the world maybe thats the reason why its called the WORLD OLYMPICS. Lets hope USA can take home the gold in the mens ice hockey too, its a big thing that we beat Canada at their own sport so now lets so if we can do it when it counts more than ever.

Killer Whales for a reason

Yesterday at Sea World in Orlando, one of the killer whales did just that to a trainer that has been working there for years. I dont understand how these people just get in the water with animals of that size and power. I know the argument is that when you breed them and raise them at such a young age its rare for anything to happen, but anything can and did happen as well. This reminds me of the time that the tiger that does the show with the two guys from Vegas attacked his trainer as well. These things obviously happen so people should be much more cautios and careful.

Summary of Fake and Real articles

Fake Article= Anytime you open up an article with the title of "Extinct species found in Chuck Norris' beard" you know its going to be an interesting one, and probably a fake one. In Cape Town, South Africa there was a belief that a South African spotted wild frog has gone extince and the extinct species was spotted in Chuck Norris; beard. This article was obviously created as a humorous piece that grabs the attention of people at places such as super markets, airports, and newstands.

True Article= This past week Tony Kornheiser was suspended by ESPN for "horrifying comments about Hannah Storm. Tony is an anylyst on ESPN and has one of the most viewed shows called Pardon the interuption, also called PTI. He is known for his big mouth but usually has stayed out of the limelight for negative attention. The remarks that frustrated ESPN were "a horrifying, horrifying outfit today. Shes got on a red go go boots and a Catholic school plaid skirt..way too short for somebody in her 40s maybe early 50s by now. In my opinion i dont think it was that bad but the media always makes things worse than they really are. Bet he watches what he says about womens outfits next time hes back on the show.

Back In the Blogging Game

Its been a while im not gonna lie but i can promise whoever reads this that i will NOT miss one more blog for the rest of the semester and i qill quiet all the haters. So this past weekend i was up in Albany visiting some of my best friends. I have never been to a college with dorms it was quite the experience. I love the way everyone is friends so easily and parties are always going on. Most of the parties consisted of people just blogging and going crazy. Its too cold for me to live there ever but an occasional weekend here and there is not bad at all. It has to be at lwast double the size of Nassau so i cant imagine what its like walking to class in the freezing weather there. Thats one things that truly sucks about going there. If I do go on to another school next year or whenever it will probably be somewhere more local like Post of maybe even Hofstra but until then ill just be blogging my ass of here.

The Music

Today was actually very funny in class. The music was hilarious whether it was Biggie or Metallica it was an overall good class. Ive never been in a class that i was actually this interested in. I truly enjoy coming to this class besides the early time slot we got. Hopefully my grade is as fun and the class and it will be that much better. My favorite song was Californication by the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and my least favorite song was Bad Day by Daniel Powers. That song is hideous. Its so depressing i dont understand how people listen to that when you are actually having a bad day.

Isles Files

The Islanders just lost their fifth straight game? What are they doing? Every year this happens, we all get so excited thinking they are a serious contender, then before we know it there not even playing anymore because they dont even make the playoffs. Its hard rooting for them every year but it will only be that much sweeter when they eventually do win the Cup. John Tavares hasent been the player i though we drafted but maybe hes just too young still. He could use some veteran help around him as well. Crosby never was alone he always had a wing man on every line and thats why he had 100 points in his rookie year. Put some talent on this team already. Spend money and people will come.

Grammys

I just watched some portions of the grammys and just to my self "what are these freaks wearing"?. Lady gaga would look so much better if she dressed like a human and not an alien robot. I dont understand how these people make so much money by just looking as weird as they can. Anyways Meghan Fox looked amazing as usual. Finally getting back into the swing of things such as waking up at 6 monday thru thursday. Its kind of hard when your off for almost two months and in those two months you wake up at 12 every day. Hopefully i dont need to take any summer classes. The weather is too cold here.
