Kevin doesn't understand Microeconomics

So much to write about, so little recollection of it all.

Yesterday, Phil, Vic and I went to see Spiderman 2, then watched Return of the King, and then went out for Chinese food. I think I'm gonna say I'm not too impressed with the movie.

*** SPOILERS ***
I guess I'm just too much of a purist to the Spiderman cartoon. It seems that in this movie, Doc Ock dies, and everyone and their dog knows who Spiderman is. Peter gets the girl at the end of the movie, is at peace with who he is, and is generally happy. I loved how at the end of Spiderman, I felt bad for Peter Parker because being a hero was a burden to him. I don't know what direction S3 will take with the current plot, but I'm sure as a technically impressive and overall action-packed movie.

I feel like I have no time since I started work. I guess you can see that in the diminished frequency of my blog posts. Getting off at 4 and going to bed at 10 just doesn't seem to leave enough time to dick around and do nothing. I admit, having too much time to do nothing can get boring, but I'll take that over this anyday. Especially now that I don't have a friggen clue what I'm doing in ECON. I hope Vlad is keeping up, cause otherwise this won't be a good midterm for me.

The sidewalk sale at the mall is very disappointing this year. I was hoping to spend around $150 on new wardrobe, but I only spent $70 on three pairs of shorts and two cds. I picked up Punk-o-rama 9 and Thornley. Both are well worth the $10 I spent on each. I was really hoping to pick up some boxsets, but the only good ones (Simpsons season 4, Family Guy Seasons 1 and 2) didn't get any sort of decent deal, so I'll just wait until they're both in the 2 for $80 category. I purchased Joy Ride and Pulp Fiction for a total of ~$20 on eBay.

I wish I could get my hands on some good games. I was gonna buy Sonic Heroes, but the PS2 version didn't get a very decent score from Gamespot. It's probably the best game ever, and I'm missing out on it because I'm basing the purchase solely on someone else's opinion. Well, perhaps I should just rent a game whenever I feel like playing one. Nah, I'd like to boost my game repetoire.

I'm so utterly confused by Economics, so I think I'm going to have to go over most of the lectures over again, and perhaps pay attention and take notes this time. Maybe the textbook can tell me whatever the hell I'm supposed to know.

Listening to... Death By Stereo - The Plague (Live)
Link of the moment... Another great webcomic, mostly game oriented
