I can now die happy.


Okay, that's a little exaggerated, but WALL-E was really good.

If you don't remember, Pixar always plays a short (film) before the feature length film. The one before WALL-E was hilarious! That's all I will mention about that.

Who knew that a movie with so little dialogue (the two main characters don't really say anything other than each other's names) could be so good. WALL-E is one fun little guy. From the beginning you'll like him. Then comes EVE, the robot he gets a crush on. It's such a cute little love story.

This movie was unlike anything I've seen before. I'm not saying it's my favorite movie ever or life-changing, but it's just different from anything else. I'm not sure exactly how to describe it. Just go and see for yourself. It's Pixar, you won't be disappointed. It lived up to my expectations--which were really high.

Journal

After all of spring term of not writing in my journal (and I really should have written about finishing the Jr. Core) I decided it's time to finally switch to keeping my journal on my computer. I'm following suit of many people. It honestly is easier and I'm on my computer all of the time. I had already started a short "what I'm thankful for" list that I try to write in on a daily basis (key word is try).

So far the computer journal is working well. I'm writing a whole lot more. And I feel like I'm writing a narrative (it's kind of fun). It loses a little bit of the personal touch by not writing it by hand, but for me, the benefits outweigh that one downside. The most important thing is that it gets done.

WALL-E




I am so excited for this movie to come out! I hate to say this but I was a little skeptical when I saw the first trailer. (I know! That's ridiculous, after how much quality entertainment Pixar has continuously created! What was I thinking!) My friends know that last year I was really excited to see Ratatouille and I counted down for months. The excitement has returned. It's getting so close to June 27.

I watched the full trailer again and saw how good this movie really can be. Yeah, the robots don't really talk. So? There were some small things that I laughed out loud at which I hadn't noticed earlier. If anyone needs convincing of the genius of Pixar, come talk with me. I will certainly be there opening night.

Watch the trailer, WALL-E
