5 nights and counting

The last few days have gone by so quickly! I have been just relaxing, but I just realized that I went to the Alamo Drafthouse for the past 5 nights in a row! I know it sounds crazy, but the Drafthouse does alot of unique things that I really wanted to go to. Here is the line up:

Friday: "Greenberg"

The new Ben Stiller Movie. It is pretty much about someone who is looking back at life. It was kind of sad, but I liked it for what it was.

Saturday: "Date Night"

Hilarious! I love Tina Fey and Steve Carell.

Sunday: "Birdemic: Shock and Terror"

This is such a weird, and horribly-made film. All I can say is WATCH IT! It is SO bad that it's good. Watch the trailer here if you are interested.

Monday: Music Monday presentation of "Phantom of the Paradise"

Music Monday's are only $2.00 a ticket. This movie was from the late 70's, it was weird to say the least. It is kind of a take on Phantom of the Opera.

Tuesday: LOST

On Tuesday nights they air the TV show Lost for free. You just have to buy food vouchers. They always air last weeks episode and then the new episode. It is pretty amazing to see Lost on the big screen.

So, thats the breakdown of my nights. If I decide to go to the movies tonight, I will be sure to post about it. However, I might take a break.

Springtime Joy

It has been so beautiful in Austin. Since I have a lot of time on my hands, I have been trying to explore, and get to know the city alittle better. So far my favorite activities for a beautiful day include: canoeing, picnicking, going to Barton Springs, reading, and taking walks around my neighborhood.

Last weekend some friends, and I dyed eggs for some Easter spirit. We ended up boiling 60 eggs, and dying the ones that didn't crack in the process. It was fun, but now we still have eggs in the fridge.
On another note, I bought a bike! It is beautiful and so fun to ride. I am still getting re-adjusted to riding a bike. I am not comfortable riding too far yet. I guess I am a wimp sometimes. The last time I rode was in Germany, and almost every ride ended badly. I blame it on the bike though, it was old with bad gears. Oh well!

I hope everyone is enjoying the weather as much as I am!

the beginning of something... not 100% sure what yet

So, this is my first non-event related blog in a long time. If interested, check out my 3 other blogs:

• the unfinished (hopefully I will finish this soon) blog about my 3 month road trip around the States last summer (2009):
  
  Summer Road Trip
  
  
• the finished blog about my semester abroad in Germany (Fall 2008):
  
  Study Abroad
  
  
• the ongoing blog I have with friends about our small furniture painting side business
  
  Bat City Furniture
  

I currently live in Austin, Tx, and have been wanting to blog about the goings on of my life. Being unemployed/searching for a job, I have a lot of time to work on some design projects including my website, sketches, paintings & Bat City Furniture. I hope to share them here with whoever is interested.

Hope you enjoy!
