Slacker

I have been a slacker with the whole writing more frequently thing.
But such is nursing school.
I am currently about to go to a movie with a tons of my friends, which I am pretty psyched about.
:D

Yeah. I said it. Nursing school.
Talk about a kick in the pants. As usual. Got a test grade back today that was less than satisfactory. Not cool at all!
But. Yeah.

Now, the more I am writing on here, the more I realize the reason I haven't written on here... Because I have had nothing to talk about. On that note, I am about to go see 'Unknown'. I will edit this post later with a 'movie review'. Two in a row! Haha. I will try to add a comical spin on it. Oh and btw, I am 21!! Holla!! Everytime I go into a store that sells lottery tickets or alcohol I point to it and say, " I could buy that. " I get a kick out of the little things. (And I do not gamble or drink so don't be gettin' no ideas ya hear!)

.........

Unknown was really good. I was able to see the preview for it last time I went to the movies, so I kind of got an idea in my head of what it would be like. Since Liam Neeson was in it, it basically tricks you into thinking it is going to be a movie like Taken, but it really isn't. I mean that in the sense that in Taken, there are never any sudden plot twists. Basically just a dad who is ticked off because his daughter is kidnapped and he is going to get her at all costs. In Unknown, the movie is about discovering why someone would want to steal his identity and finding out who can help him. At times, he over thinks the situation and starts to believe that maybe he is just crazy. And that is about all I can say without giving the movie. If I had to rate it I would give it 6 out of 10. Which basically means yes, it is good but you may want to wait until it can be rented. At the end of the movie I am left wondering why certain things happened in the movie. Certain characters did things that still made no sense after the resolution, no matter how you tried to reason it. And it wasn't loose ends left in order to make a sequel, it was basically flaws in the plot. If you're going to try and make a movie that requires the audience to be pretty attentive, you should make sure that the little things that different characters do have a viable reason. Especially the random suicide! And that is all I can say without giving away the movie.

And apparently according to the movie everyone in Germany drives a Mercedes. The cars were awesome. The sometimes dull plot line not so much.
