The lego movie is going well. I still have lots to do, with composites and narration. Hopefully it will be done in time, pray for fast post production.
Currently Watching The Cell (New Line Platinum Series) By Dylan Baker, Patrick Bauchau, Vincent D'Onofrio, James Gammon, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Musetta Vander, Jake Weber, Jennifer Lopez, Gareth Williams, Tara Subkoff, Catherine Sutherland, Vince Vaughn, Jake Thomas, Colton James see related
Ugg, crappy crappy movie. Don't ever watch "The Cell"
Anyway, well, I stumbled back on to Xanga today, dusted off the old posts and cleaned up the background so it was readable again.
It's really fun to read your own entries from a long time ago, and remember the days you wrote them.
Funny, how in one of the last entries I did in 2005 I was talking about being asked to Coordinate in 2006, Which I decided against, and here it is, over a year later and now I'm more excited then ever to coordinate this summer.
As part of the double posting initiative I am now placing this pas week's series of posts on xanga.
Sunday, November 27, 2005 And Now It's Time To Say Goodby, To All Our Friends and Me..- Thanksgiving week Part 7
Thanksgiving with the family is over. All relatives have packed and gone on their long journeys back from whence they came. I love my family, but three 24 hour days is just about as much of a dose as I can muster right now.
Did some shopping with Mom and Sis, Might be getting my grandparents a Mac Mini to replace their 5 year old Gateway running Windows Me....(ick) So we'll see how that pans out.
I love my subject title for this blog post, It works on so many levels because tomorrow I get to take my beautiful girlfriend to Disneyland. So I must sleep soon so that I can stay awake through all the fun
Saturday, November 26, 2005 Mannheim Steamroller- Thanksgiving week Part 6
I found out my Grandma had a Mannheim Steamroller Christmas CD like the LP my parents used to play every Christmas when I was little. Playing these songs again brings back so many fond December memories.
Today was Other side of the family day. We drove out to my Aunt Jan's, (Dad's sister) and chatted with my uncle and cousin and grandma from that side. Then we drove back to my grandma's place in Claremont, and had lunch in the big eating hall, and were introduced to all her friends and neighbors.
The whole Haserot side of the family saw Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire at the Krikorean in Monrovia tonight. 2nd time seeing it for me but it's a really good movie.
I feel that i'm juuuust about ready to be done with the family part of vacation. I love my family, but I am glad that tomorrow is our last day, 3 full days of 13 family members is fun, exciting, and exhausting. We'll have to do it again next year.
I can't wait until Sunday afternoon, planning a special trip of sorts you might say.....
Friday, November 25, 2005 O come, o come all 27 Family Members- Thanksgiving week Part 5
Today is finally Thanksgiving! 27 family members, It was SO much fun. This was actually the smoothest Thanksgiving we have had in a while. Perhaps it was the 10 cases of Corona, perhaps it was every uniting in a common front to rally behind the cause of "Ask Darren about his new girlfriend".
At one point I was strategically cut off from escape and questioned by my Uncle Craig. But it really wasn't that bad. I would have been a fool to have thought such a cool event could be kept secret when half the group already knows.
Food was great, I ate lots and lots, us poor college students have to take good food when we can get it.
I love spending time with family, I try to do it as often as I can. My cousin opened a jar of olives all over my Uncle Alan's slacks, that was great.
More family moments to come tomorrow, tune in and see.
Thursday, November 24, 2005 Meet the Parents.....not the movie - Thanksgiving week Part 4
For our next edition of Thanksgiving week we start off with "Woodstock Chapel '05" Chapel was held out on Adams field today, but to my surprise It was actually a very moving and profound chapel, with communion at the end and a good message by our speaker. I was getting a bit of that same mountaintop buzz one gets from The Woods.
Then, after chapel, and many phone calls of planning, Maureen and I were off to Arcadia to have lunch with my mom, grandma, aunt, two cousins, and my sister. Not a bad dose of the Moser/extended family. Everyone loved Maureen, but of course I knew they would.
Then we were off to Rancho Cucamonga for my visit of Maureen's sisters and parents. Dun Dun Dun! Kindest family every, I had a great long talk with her dad, and feel very good about where we are in our relationship.
Saddest part of the day was driving away from Maureen, there is no other girl like her.
Wednesday, November 23, 2005 North by Northwest- Thanksgiving week Part 3
Today in Film History we watched Alfred Hitcock's "North by Northwest", Which is now my favorite Hitchcock, followed shortly by "Rear Window". I am sad that my computer does not know how to spell Hitchcock and red tag's it every time I type.
Truly a great movie, wonderful dialogue, a beautiful romantic story, and a 3000 mile chase ending on top of Mt. Rushmore.
Still really really Twitterpated, I might be meeting the family tomorrow, a little nervous, but very excited.
Also very excited that my Dad and Uncle Dave come into town tomorrow night, God is so good, I love having all the family together.
But now I must sleep, for Chapel will soon be upon me. ;)
Tuesday, November 22, 2005 Sunrise Sunset - Thanksgiving week Part 2
Sunrise, Today I spent most of the day with my amazing little cousins from nor cal and my crazy cool Aunt Janet at DISNEYLAND! I had so much fun with them, i've sure missed seeing them. Bummer that the winds prevented our fireworks.
Sunset, My evening was even more amazing then my day. And by evening I mean between the hours of 1 AM and 4 AM. I had an amazing DTR and have to say that I am extremely Twiterpated with this girl.
Disney and DTR, what more could a Monday hope to offer.
Monday, November 21, 2005 Beginning of Thanksgiving Week
So the Thanksgiving week has begun, T- three days and counting until 27 relatives are sitting around the same table in the same house. If you hear a small explosion resonating from Arcadia, we would be it. I love my family so much, they are so much fun to see mix together. You never know what will happen.
Last week was an amazing week for me, and I have a feeling that this one is going to be just as good.
Now the never-ending CBA decision, watch a movie, or sleep...........
