I got to see this movie a week ago at Silver City (or Scotiabank Theatre, as it is now called.@_@). If you like The Beatles, then it is a must-see movie. It's awesome, and the best musical I've seen in a long time! My favourite songs are probably I Want You, Hey Jude and Strawberry Fields Forever. Just amazing all the way through. The movie basically writes itself.

NAIT Welcome Week
So Monday was the start of NAIT'S Welcome Week.
First off, there was an ice breaking thing in the gym where I got to briefly meet some people. One girl who I became friendly with, Andrea, noticed my henna tattoo and that became the starting point of our conversation. I REALLY need to get myself a henna kit, especially if it helps make new friends.:)
After the ice breaking thing, we were put in groups and were taken on a tour of the main campus. It looks like a really great campus and there are lot's of places to eat and study. There's a coffee shop, a Mr. Sub, a Pizza Hut, a Common Market, and even a campus bar, The Nest, located next to the swimming pool. It'll be free to go to the pool, so I think I might end up going there quite often.
When the tour was finished, we headed over to the Shaw theatre for a comedian presentation about managing finances. I ended up getting 5 bucks for being "the smallest freshman."B)
After that, there was a free hypnotist show at The Nest with Damian the hypnotist. It was pretty fun. I was laughing so hard I was crying.
The next day, I went in early for the free pancake breakfast and registration. As we were having breakfast, some French guy asked us to sit at his table and we talked alot about politics, since he said he was going to be a polititan. Very friendly though. The registration went quickly so we were out of there pretty soon.
Afterwards, we went to Surf's Up! at a cheap theatre. The movie was really great. The only downside was that a daycare brought 196 kids to it and completely filled it up. My dad, who was late(as usual) couldn't get in to see it with us.:/
Anyhoo, it's been a very exciting week so far.:)

Eyeglasses... More than Meets the Eye.
I got my glasses today. Then I went to see Transformers.
The glasses make quite a difference for reading black on white, or white on black(except on the computer). It's like someone turned up the sharpness on the television that is my eyes.
I had heard Transformers had really good sound, so I sat in the middle of the speakers and right under the projector. I think I was one of the only girls in the theatre, though the theatre didn't have many people in the first place.
Before the movie, I was listening to a convo between a little kid and his dad. I thought it was interesting.
Kid: Did you like Transformers?
Dad: No, I didn't get into Tranformers.
Kid: What movies were you used to?
Dad: Smurfs.
Kid: What Smurfs?
Dad: They're little blue guys that run around and cause trouble. You ever see one, you step on 'im.
Ah, smurfs......
Anyway, I thought the movie was awesome. Really great animation and even a good story, although maybe that's cause I've never watched a Transformers cartoon in my life. I did, however own a slightly broken Astroplane and say, "Transformers, robots in disguise!" while playing with it.
I think we may be on the verge of seeing craze of giant robot movies. Could a Go-Bots film be next?
