This Week in Thought
So, I spent Friday reading THE NATHAN COSBY BLOG featuring Nate Cosby by Nathan Cosby. In it he had ‘This Week in Thought' posts.
“I’m trying to do more blogposts.
So every Monday/Tuesday, I'll post the top seven things I thought about over the past weekend (as you know, weekends are a time to reflect while eating chicken and watching old movies).
This may seem boring...but you're reading my blog. You're SUPPOSED to be bored.”
While I don’t agree about the chicken, I thought this was an interesting idea, so without further ado, here’s what I thought about over the weekend.
---
MINI MARVELS
Mini Marvels was the first Marvel comic I ever read and has always been a favourite. Reading it always brings a big smile to my face. I’m disappointed Marvel has chosen to discontinue it, but at least I’ll have Chris G’s G-Man to read soon. Only 37 more days!
APRIL MOVIES
There are roughly nine films on my list of films to see in April (I say roughly because their release dates are always changing), and so far the only movie I’ve seen is one that wasn’t even on my list – Dragonball Evolution. I’m seeing The Boat That Rocked with a friend tomorrow though, and I won tickets to see The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas next weekend.
CHOCOLATE
I’ve basically eaten all of the small chocolates I received for Easter. My lunch yesterday was just chocolate. I’m thinking I’ll use the bigger chocolates as cinema snack food. Popcorn at the movies is just too expensive these days.
AGE
People are always thinking I’m about 17. A friend’s brother actually said to him the other day that it was strange because I “acted like a 20 year old even though I’m only 17”. I’d thought this may just be because I’m always hanging around with an actual 17 year old. Yesterday, however, I went to the museum and the woman at the ticket desk asked if I was a child. I’m pretty sure the cut off for children is about 15, so I really must actually look young. A good thing though. Except on the rare occasions I buy alcohol I don’t usually get carded. Hm…
IPOD
I don’t think I’d even used it this year. It had gotten to the stage where I had more music on my computer than I had space on my iPod, and I couldn’t be bothered shifting through to find the music I wanted on it, so once the batteries died I just left it sitting there. That was just ridiculous though, so I actually did something about it over the weekend.
SAMURAI SENTAI SHINKENGER
Pretty amusing show. Really makes me want to go rewatch Power Rangers though. I will not give in! Having
softpixels bug me constantly about watching Shinkenger is not fun though. I’ll watch it! Eventually. Gosh. :P Also, my Japanese has been in horrible decline lately, so hopefully this will help it to pick up.
SUPERPOWERS
Reading Civil War over the weekend I have decided that there is no way I would ever use my powers to help people. It’s just not worth the effort. I’d elaborate, but that’s also too much effort.
