My next assignment due in my Prevention and Control of Disease class is an review of a peer reviewed article based on disease prevention. Using Google as a search engine for this has only given me links to articles that are impossible to understand. I may have found a keeper just now, regarding Vitamin A supplements and it's correlation with reducing Malaria in Africa, but at the late hour, I'll save that stress for tomorrow. It's only due tomorrow night at midnight!! Ah..
What a beautiful day out today. Since Frankie has been quite under the weather, I took the girls to my moms and did some laundry. Omri was outside all day; playing with chalk, pinecones, shovels, balls, Logan. Olive spent some time in her Exersaucer, but kept throwing her toys in the dirt. I don't think she ingested too much!
Came home, and watched Superbad. Now, I was terribly skeptical of this movie. I am not a huge fan of crude, rowdy comedies of late, and I figured this would amount to nothing more than a boob fest. Suprisingly, I found myself quite amused at the banter between the two best friends as they finished out their senior year trying to get alcohol to impress some girls at a graduation party. I think that the one guy in it (also in Juno), was a pretty skilled funny guy. Makes me want to go see Adventureland. Probably wont, but alas, it may be a VOD (Video On Demand) possibility for the future.
Speaking of movies, Starz and Encore movie channels were free this weekend! This enabled us to watch Superbad, and I'm recording Gone Baby Gone overnight. Also watched Vantage Point off and on at my moms--it was ok. Might have worked out a bit better if I would have sat through the whole thing. VERY excited for May 15th, Angels and Demons comes out in theaters. Even Frankie's looking forward to this. Also, Harry Potter in a mere 3 months! Ah... it's sad to think that there will only be one more movie. Even more sad that there are no more books--this also goes for Twilight. Alas, it's always best to go out on top, rather than to drag it on and on and on until the story is soap opera-esque.
SNL's Best of Amy Poehler is on. LOVE her. must watch. farewell.

Good news...there are two harry potter films after this film. Book 7 is being broken into two movies.
ReplyDeleteps- i just learned that sickle cell disease helps prevent malaria...its why its so prevalent among sub-sharan africans
ReplyDeleteSo, are we all becoming movie critics?! Good look with the review - I hated writing that crap - just a bunch of BS.
ReplyDeletespeaking of preventing malaria, i just wrote a paper on how a possible gene mutation in africans prevents them from getting malaria but makes them more susceptible to getting HIV/AIDS... hmmmmm
ReplyDeleteI need a new series to get addicted to - and it needs to be as good as Harry Potter & Twilight!
ReplyDeleteThe new HP movie looks great - so dark!!!
I can't wait to see Angels and Demons, but I'm SO DISAPPOINTED that it's rated PG13. It needs a solid "R" to show some of the coolest scenes from the book! ;)
M-I didn't know they were doing 2 parts.. I wonder how they splitting it up??? Hopefully they're released in a relatively timely intervals.
ReplyDeleteB-I know what you mean! I know that there can't be all the most intense parts in it. Stupid commercialism!
PS- Have you tried Google Scholar? I used it a lot during school.
