I’m starting this new section where I just talk about the week in order to get back into blogging. Hopefully it’ll be interesting.
Chicago
For a week that is only twenty days from Summer, the weather has been terrible. It barely rained but the weather each morning was consecutively glum. And oddly, the sun would sometimes appear in the evening, right before it set. The weather had totally affected my mood this week.
Mini Movie Reviews
- He’s Just Not That Into You Ridiculously depressing for a romantic comedy. Although there were a few redeeming lines from Justin Long. 3/5
- The Curious Case of Benjamin Button While worth its three hours, the movie didn’t really pick up until the middle — when Brad Pitt finally looked like a man in his twenties, and when Daisy/Benjamin wasn’t creepy). 4.5/5
- Star Trek This movie has fried my brain. I can’t talk about anything that’s not Kirk or Spock related anymore; all conversations eventually lead to Star Trek. I think the cast was absolutely perfect for this reboot. 5/5
- Two Weeks Notice I don’t think I can enjoy Music & Lyrics, or any Hugh Grant romantic comedy anymore after seeing this movie. 2.5/5

I’ve enlisted in Star Fleet! Actually I just bought Frosted Flakes (they sold out of the Frosted Mini Wheats) for the Star Trek badge that comes with. It lights up Federation yellow, symbolizing Star Fleet Command.
