Movie Date: Sex and the city vol 1

Last week I saw Sex and the city, the movie...after watching Sex and the City 2. Weird much? I never really am a big fan of Sex and the city tv series, heck I have never watched a single episode. I think I am the only one in the entire universe that have NEVER ever watch a single of episode of Sex and the city (maybe not including my mom and dad, and grandma and grandpa...). OK maybe I am not the only one but still...I hear a lot of people talking about it, and the hype...I just cave in and watched it. I don't really see the big hype about how great the movie is...it is about 4 besties with a lot of time for shopping :P and to date hot guys. I like it ok, it was funny in certain parts. Will I watch it again? Maybe, depending if I was really bored or have nothing else to watch.

I liked it enough to watch the whole movie tho, so I think that deserve a thumbs up. :) This is the first time I watch Sarah Jessica Parker actually act (I think).

Game 2 in hand: Arsenal vs Blackpool

Can we say Walcott?! W A L C O T T!! Walcott was awesome!! Since the first game was kinda disappointing (cause they didn't win...at least they didn't lose right?) the second game was AWESOME! and then some. XD They won like 6 - 0. I didn't really think they would win that big...but yay! I was literally screaming from my seat...haha. I have to give Blackpool credit for the awesome display of footworks but the score reflect which was a better team. A R S E N A L!!


Walcott scored 3 goals that night, Arshavin 1, Diaby 1 and Chamakh for a corner kick by Van Persie. Can't wait for their next match this weekend. Saturday...wonder if their matches are all on Saturdays? :) Woohooo! Next Saturday they play Blackburn Rovers. :)

Arsenal will take Blackpool on the 21st at 1500 hrs (England time).

Movie Date: Brooklyn's Finest

Ok honestly I think this movie is a lil boring, I didn't have high hopes of it anyway before I began watching but I had it on my lappie so what the heck right? Wrong...at least I had other stuff to do like FB (MW, FV etc etc). If you like cops story/undercover, lil action then here ya go. It has a decent storyline altho I think I might have watched this movie before o.O. Then it was just a waste of time when I could've been watching another movie!!! :-/ Ah well..at least that's one down 98498988917484758973 to go o.O. I didn't really like the ending of it tho, everyone died...except Richard Gere's character...and he was retired anyway. Too bad.

Utter disappointment...at least for me

I was looking forward to the Liverpool vs Arsenal clash Sunday night, to a lil disappointment ...to me anyway. No Arsenal didn't lose nor did they win. Disappointing right? They level 1 all with Liverpool. I mean a bad start could be a bad end for Arsenal. I am not high on hope. They have been so close in the last few years...yet VERY far. They have lost some key players before the season starts. And not winning the Liverpool match really makes me worry. I know it is just one game but Chelsea beat West Brom 6 - 0, now thats saying much??

Before the start of the season (YAY! Season officially starts!!) there was a lot of rumors about losing Cesc Fabregas. I was really really nervous about losing him to Barcelona. We all know Barcelona is the IT team right now but I don't really watch La Liga and it is kinda boring so losing Cesc to Barcelona would suck. But lo and behold he did stick around the Emirates for I think at least one more season (lets hope I am wrong). So welcome home Cesc Fabregas.

Arsenal did lose a few players before the season, one which I was really disappoint was Eduardo. He was a surprise move to me. I thought he would've stayed at least till his contract ends or till Arsenal at least win something (anything for that matter it is getting a lil frustrated). Eduardo moved to Shakhtar Donetsk. He will be missed.

Another upsetting move was Philippe Senderos. After a loan spell last season and coming back not playing a game (that I know of) I was hoping to see him play this season. Then I learned that he has made a move to Fulham. I actually liked his skills defending the goal.

A little while back, in May one of my many fave player in the Arsenal team Fran Merida moved back to Spain to Atletico Madrid after 4 years after joining Arsenal. I like Merida, altho he rarely plays for the first 11. I know how it is in the football world. You need playing time not just sitting there watching people play. He is very talented, plays a lil like Fabregas that's why I like his plays. I hope he makes an impact where he is now. I do hope Carlos Vela won't be leaving Arsenal soon...not yet anyway I think he has the potential to play a lot this season.

Arsenal also lost 3 key defenders, William Gallas, Mikael Silvestre and Sol Campbell. Altho Campbell just joined them last year briefly I think they three of them will be missed and I hope Arsenal defense is improving. Sol Campbell will always be a Gunner :). Gallas reportedly made a move to Juventus. Silvestre on the other hand came from Man Utd, and just a brief stay at Emirates Stadium made a move before this season starts to Al Jazira.

Overall, they did sign 2 new players this year, Marouane Chamkh, and Laurent Koscielny. I hope they can make a big impact in the premier league this season.

I guess may the best team win.
