  • Man, why is Xanga so dead? ...Why did I pay for lifetime Xanga premium back then?

    Anyway things have been pretty good lately. I started watching Smallville again. I think I wrote a brief entry about it a little bit earlier, about why that show is so significant to me. I started watching Smallville when it first came out when I was a sophmore in high school. Season 1 of Smallville begins with Clark Kent as a freshman in high school, so watching the characters grow and develop over the years as I also transitioned from high school to college was kind of like "growing up" with the characters. The irony and relationship parallels and analogies made the show interesting to watch. The excellent quotes and one-liners make the show memorable.
    Anyway, it was probably a bad idea to download all 8 seasons of Smallville. Probably a worse idea to bring seasons 1-3 with me to my appartment in Chicago, especially after a weekend of endless Smallville exposure. It's made me all emotionally haywire. Oh well, I guess this will be a chance to truly learn self-control, by limiting myself to 1 episode a day.

    On a completely random note, I have decided once and for all that Wendy's IS superior to McDonald's. I taste the "fresh, never frozen," "hot juicy burger" difference.
    I think I was reluctant to even consider that possibility all my life, because McDonald's is so much more famous and popular. In social psychology, familiarity breeds liking. But I guess once I realized that and am completely honest with myself, I must say that Wendy's is better.

     

    Now I know why I haven't updated in a while... I've nothing interesting to say. blah.
