x-men, angels and demons


I saw a couple of movies. Since I have tons of stuff to grade and 5 final exams to write, I thought I would take the day off and see several movies!

Number one- Wolverine. I've never seen an X-men movie and don't know anything about the story. However, Hugh Jackman is a favorite of mine so I decided to give this movie a chance. Enjoyable and a good use of my time. But I'm not sure why these characters are mutants. What did they mutate from or with?

The second- Angels and Demons. I listened to the book a few years ago. I've read THE DAVINCI CODE and enjoyed that movie. I had to check this out. I remember who is behind everything and kept that in mind as I watched. Nicely done and more interesting than the book.

On a different note, my younger brother is most likely going to New York City with me in June!

And one more week of school. Only three days left of the class from hell (that would be 7th period.)

Hope and the Iron Lady



I realise if I'm going to call this blog "From Texas to Paris" I should post something quite often about one place of the other. So today it is the 'Iron Lady.' This picture is from the ground up and I'm happy to admit I took this.

Looking up to the blue sky is a way of creating hope. Hope for the future. Hope for better things. Hope.
