Arrr Matey!

*sigh* summer... considering as I really only have one week to really relax. Stupid physics class. Well, in any case. I need to make the most of it, no? Well, yesterday, I did. I don't think I've really had a good time like that in a while. I mean, yes, we did watch Pirates 3, but I mean... the bonding was different. Shooting pool and talking about really important issues in our lives and the lives of the people close to us.

Well, here's my review on Pirates 3: I was disappointed. I mean, the second one wasn't very good, and I thought this one was just as bad, or worse than that one. This film was longer, and more convoluted than the second. I found myself confused at what was happening, and unsure who was double-crossing who. The ending truly was a surprise for me. And actually... believe it or not, but I thought Captain Barbossa was one of the best characters in the film. Interesting. I thought Chow Yun-Fat was a waste of a good actor and I was quite excited to see Keith Richards. But aside from that, I thought the plot had too much going for it and found it to be dragging in many parts.

Hoping the next movies this summer that I want to see are good:
- Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer (June 15)
- Cashback (showing at the Newport International Film Festival on June 6)
- Knocked Up (June 1)
- Surf's Up (June 8)
-Ratatouille (June 29)
-Transformers (July 6)

GAHH the list goes on.... it's over. Kirsten is bankrupt for the summer. Hope to get a job to pay it all off!

chemistry =/= love

i will not stress over chemistry.
i will not stress over chemistry.
i will not stress over chemistry.
i will not stress over chemistry.
i will not stress over chemistry.

I figure... if i say it enough, it will end up coming true. But alas.... My head is spinning around. I NEED to be strong. I need to do well. I just need to think about what I will be doing after finals: going to Huntington Beach with my friends, watching Pirates of the Caribbean 3 and other summer blockbusters, more hanging out with friends, waiting until midnight to get the last Harry Potter book, etc.... And I will continue to avoid the fact I will be taking a physics class. Hmmm. maybe I should actually be studying instead of writing a blog entry, no?

On a completely unrelated note, I am in love with the new Maroon 5 song "Makes me Wonder". It's so infectious.

C'est la vie.
