Oh Ramona Flowers...

I know i know... I haven’t written on here again for ages! I’ve had one of those weekends where i have literally done nothing, i had no desire to think, to make any effort or to even get out of bed. I therefore had little motivation to write something on my Blog. I know that must come as a disappointment!

So you must be wondering why i have had such a terrible weekend. Well it’s odd really because it started really well. I went to see Scott Pilgrim on Friday with a friend of mine. I was a bit dubious at first but as im a geek at heart i loved it. Was a really good film and i recommend you go and see, even if you aren’t a geek! Its rather funny. However... When i got home, for some reason felt really really empty. This may sound a little stupid, but watching that film made me analyse my current life. That’s ridiculous i know, how can i compare my life to Scott Pilgrim!? It’s a film about a guy who fights seven evil ex’s in order to win his new girls heart. The thing is... That’s it right there. As funny as the film was and how it wasn’t taking itself too seriously, it really made me think. This really geeky and gormless guy (Scott Pilgrim), does all this stuff just to win over this girl. It just made me really... Want that?

How stupid is that? Im even laughing now because i know you must be thinking what the fuck is he on about, it’s a film based on a comic book he’s making NO SENSE! The thing is... It really did make sense for me, and it still does. It ended up making me so depressed this weekend i couldn’t get out of bed, i have done nothing. I haven’t even gone outside. Most people would get sad over serious films, but no, for me its Scott Pilgrim. Haha...

Is it also weird that i found the girl he chases strangely attractive? She was like a total manga character, im starting to find things like that rather cool. “Weeabo” girls, why are they so strangely attractive? (I think it’s called Weeabo, i could be wrong. Girls that dress and look Japanese even if they aren’t Japanese?). I just think it’s a really cool and attractive look, you have the confidence to challenge society and western culture, and i think that’s admirable. How i salute you Ramona Flowers! And find you strangely attractive... Ahem.

Hopefully i shall be in possession of Halo Reach tomorrow. This may help to alleviate the above depression. Either that or my soulmate could come back into my life... Erm. Ignore that. So yes. Halo Reach. Well i have already seen the reviews and surprise surprise all the American Xbox mega-fans have given it 11/10. It looks good don’t get me wrong, but i shall report back tomorrow with my own judgement on the game. IT WILL BE FAIR I PROMISE! (Well, fair in my mind anyway...).

Hope you’re weekend was better than mine, although to be honest if you woke up, made some tea and walked outside you have bettered me in every single way.

Have a good week.
