trying out new things

I want to try and start blogging again. maybe I'll keep doing movie reviews. the last movie I watched was a documentary on Aron Ralston, NBC news survivor story, about his freak accident while hiking in Utah and got his whole right arm stuck between a boulder and a wall in a crescent of the earth! eeek. It was a beautiful heart-wrenching story. Then before that I watched the movie based of his close to death experience called 127 hours played by James Franco (he played the role well, very goofy and sensible, and always a great stare especially during a 1 character based film).
now I want to read Mr. Ralston's book, between a rock and a hard place. I can't get enough of his story, apparently. The book will probably be the most descriptive, I'm looking foward to reading the part describing cutting his own arm off, that will be intense! I can already sense the agony just from watching the film.

It was interesting to see the real footage though, of his actual recordings of himself saying good-bye to his family and describing his current state of almost dehydrated death--thats why I rented the documentary on netflix.

Netflix is probably one of the best organizations I contribute to. why get cable when you have netflix? no commercials and you choose what you want to watch! and when you want to watch it! it's great. I would like to watch the news once in a while though. I got a yahoo account so I can read that and see whats going on. I've never taken a side in politics before. I never do my own research to see what I agree with. It's hard to say what I am, because I think everyone is right sometimes, just as equally as they are wrong sometimes. I am not registered to vote. I know some people would call me ignorant, but I would just call myself uninformed. who's to believe anyway?

I got a yahoo account so that is step 1!! I know whats actually sort of going on in this world, according to yahoo. I'm not always in my own little world..well, maybe most of the time I am...
