blog comment/ Unthinkable/ CSI: NY

Jul. 16 Blog Comment: Some English teacher commented on my Mar. 22, 2010 post. On Apr. 12, 2010, I got this:

Anonymous said: "I've recently found your blog, and have read through all of it. I just have a couple of honest opinions to share with you, and hopefully my bluntness will not offend you.

First of all, I had a really hard time following what you are trying to say. Your grammar is horrible, and I think you should really work on that if you really truly want to be a writer.

Secondly, you sound like you are in middle school. Sorry, but some of my students can write a lot better than that.

Sorry, but I think your writing really needs some work; structurally and logically.

Sincerely,The English Major"

Now that nearly a week has passed since I read that comment, I'm not really angry at this person. This is constructive criticism and it will push me to write better.

Call back: Today I got a call back from this restaurant- again.

Me: I don't know if you remember this, but you did call me and I worked there for a day back in April.
Guy: Oh yeah, I was just going through some resumes.
He says maybe he'll call me back later.
That was kind of weird, but if he calls again, I will take the job again. I'm still unemployed.

Jugo Juice: This place opened yesterday. I passed my resume to them today and I did an interview on the spot. The manager asked me if I tried their drinks before and I admitted I didn't. He then gave me a coupon so I can get a free one. I tried the Wacky Watermelon. It tastes good.

I passed 10 resumes at the mall. A few were hiring.

EI: I filed for EI today.

Jul. 17 Job: I've been unemployed for 6 weeks now. I then got hired yesterday and I worked for 4 hours today. I was dismissed. That's okay. I didn't really like it. I really wanted to say to Anonymous who told me to get and keep a job that I got one, but I didn't. Better luck next time.

I bought a donair and chatted a bit with Delmon. He used to work at the Soup place. Then from a distance, Jenna who I went to jr. high and high school with came and sat with me and we ate lunch together. We talked a bit about work.

J told me that she's looking for a place to move out with her boyfriend. They are living with her sister, and her boyfriend in a small apartment.

Feelings: I'm still kind of upset about that job loss. I'll deal with it by writing about other things.

Unthinkable: I saw this TV movie a couple of weeks ago. I like watching TV movies because I see a lot of strong women as the lead characters. However, this was mediocre. It was based on true events.

There was a good start with a robbery in day light with customers in the restaurant. It sets up the protagonist Jamie with being a cop.

She and her partner chase the bad guy down.
J: You're in big trouble for making me run in heels.
lol.

It sets up J has a 19 yr old son Pete and he has a 21 yr old girlfriend. J knows the gf's mom and they're friends too. The girlfriend is a drama starter. They want to get married, though the moms disagree with them.

There is a fire at the daughter's house. She dies in the fire. Daughter's ex-fiance is the suspect. The description of the movie was kind of spoiled for me. The mid-point is that there is evidence of Pete's shirt found at the crime scene.

Pete admits that he did murder her. It was an accident. He was mad and he strangled her. He freaks out and sets the house on fire to cover evidence. It's a little interesting with the lawyer who tells P that he should act like he was unsure of what happened and kind of lie in court that way.

P goes to jail for life without parole. Jamie's friend/ daughter's mom moves away. They kind of make up at the end. It was a downer of a movie.

CSI: NY: Let's talk about something that was well- written. I can't believe I didn't see this one coming. I saw Joey Lawrence on this show as the big guest-star in one ep, and knew he was the killer. One time Scott Wolf guest- starred for one ep and I didn't know that he was the killer.

This series of episodes, I didn't guess that Kerr Smith was the 333 killer that was stalking Mac Taylor. A little recycled story line. MT was stalked before, because this guy was trying to track down the correct MT because he hit and ran over his wife. Scott Wolf played a MT and he did it.

Back to the 333 killer. KS holds Mac Taylor responsible for his brother's death that occurred years ago when they MT was a teen. MT, Brother 1, and Brother 2 Jimmy was delivering something. A Man was beating up Brother 1. MT pointed the gun at Man, but didn't shoot. Brother 2 Jimmy shot and killed the Man. Brother 1 goes to hospital and dies.

Cut to present time. Jimmy calls KS to stop him from killing MT. KS set up a booby trap so that anyone who comes in to save MT, will get shot. MT is in a chair with these laser beams, and if he touches anything, a gun will fire.

Cops are tracking down KS and MT.
Jimmy opens the door and gets shot.
MT moves his hand and a gun fires at KS as he runs to Jimmy.
KS points gun at MT.
MT shoots KS in the forearm.

Flack tells MT to shoot to kill.
MT: They lost enough too much.
Jimmy was wearing a bullet proof vest, so he's okay.

CSI: NY game: I haven't played this game in awhile. I have collected enough repeated story lines on this show to make a list.

Someone tries to murder someone, and gets an innocent victim killed instead: A man tried to kill Laughing Larry this guy who owns a joke store. He gives Larry a cigar to kill him, but the L passes the cigar to another guy and that guy gets killed instead.

There was an ep where a guy poisons a pitcher of lemonade to kill a guy. The intended victim was murdered, but he shared the drink with this woman and she was killed too.

Now I remember this guy gives alcohol to one guy, and this woman took the drink and she drank it and it killed her.

Charice: Onto some light stuff. I read an Edmonton Journal article about this 16 yr Filipino girl who can sing really well. I saw her on Oprah. She is good. Music producer David Foster says so and so does Celine Dion.

The episode showed Andrew Johnston who is a 13 yr old boy and he can sing really well too. He was on Britain's got Talent.

Expired: I was eating tomato sauce that expired a few months ago. I opened it and ate it. It was fine. I then put it in the fridge and kept eating it for a month or so. It was still fine. Then I realized someone threw it out.

My brother had this XS energy drink that expired a month ago. It was Black Cherry Cola Blast. It tasted fine.

Lucid dream: This was a couple of months ago. Lucid dreaming means that you are conscious and aware that you are dreaming. I woke up and then went back to sleep. In my head I knew I was dreaming. I was on a swing in a room. My grandma walks in and tries to talk to me.

Me: You're not my real grandma!
I kept thinking: "Wake up, wake up, wake up!"
I needed to wake up and get to work on time. I did wake up and wasn't late for work.

Coincidence: One time Rogers called my cell. At the same time, they called my phone line asking for my dad. I doubt they really schedule phone calls to simultaneously call us like that. lol.

The Hangover: I saw this movie because my sister has the dvd and loves it. I didn't really find it funny. She and I are opposites. I like the TV show The Sausage Factory which is pretty similar in the crude humor about four guy friends. S doesn't find that show funny at all.

Baby- sitter's Club: I was shopping a month back and I saw that my favorite childhood book series have new covers on them. There aren't pictures of the characters on them at all. My sister says it's to update the books and sells better. There is actually a new book called The Summer Before which is the prequel. I'm actually not really interested in reading it.

I still have some books left. I bought a lot of them at book stores, and book orders which give discounts. I bought some on the internet, and from friends. I donated most of them to the Wee Book Inn and kept a few like the last book that was ever printed of them.
