Theatre Antics

So, I decided to go see a movie today- the family friendly Despicable Me.  I know, it doesn't exactly speak to my street cred, but animation films are for a universal audience nowadays.  And I'm sticking to that stance.  Anyway, so I was enjoying the movie when halfway into it, a small child started crying and shouting for his mommy.  Now, I'm not a parent.  I don't understand the fuzziness and the warmth that children bring to our lives, or so I keep being told, but I do know that I like silence during my movie.  Of course, it's unavoidable that younger children may act up.  I get that, I really do.  However, when the child is yelling for 30minutes continuously, and you, as the parent, decide the best way to care for your child is to ignore them and hope the sounds end, that pisses me off. 

If your child cannot sit through a movie, don't take them to one.  Or, take your kid outside and deal with them so that the entire theatre does not have to sit through your parental skills, or lack thereof.  Did I say how I can't stand small children?  With no younger siblings, I have not been built with a tolerance or patience to the cries of children.  Or, my biology was not meant to be around them.  So parents, if you can please check your children, before the audience messes you up, that would be appreciated.  The movie was enjoyable, not a classic though. 

The First

I feel like I should do something special as this is my first ever post but that would go against everything I stand for.  This blog will really be about my daily encounters or things that catch my interest, i.e. things that really annoy the sh@#! out of me.  Come on, let's be honest, nobody wants to read a blog about constant happiness.  We (that includes you) want to hear about who screwed the other person over and what creative ways they get back at each other. 

A little about myself - I'm a college student, still living at home and working a part time job to get by.  I am Asian but really Canadian at heart.  I think my Asian-ness, yes that is word, helps make me, me.  It brings to the table, my super traditional parents with my view on life.  Something you should know is that I'm incredibly sarcastic.  The kind of dry sarcasm where you sometimes, don't really know if I am being sarcastic, if that makes any sense.  It's easier to see it in person, but if you read my posts, you'll eventually catch on. 

My goal in life is to get by, by just meeting enough of the expectations set fourth by everyone around me so they'll stop bothering me.  At this point, perhaps I should mention, I am gay and currently single by choice.  And by choice, I mean the fish really aren't biting. 

As for being a procrastinator, I am, in life.  Of course, I will make the odd attempt to get a good mark, impress at my desk job, or be the filial son, but at the end of the day, reality can just wait because I'm in no hurry to go anywhere.  Hope you enjoy the ride, it will be a bumpy one.
