Hey Everyone!
So tonight I saw Iron Man 2, and it was one heck of a great movie.
Iron Man 2 was an action-packed film that improved on some of the flaws that Iron Man had. Unlike in Iron Man, in which was complete back story and a little action towards the ending, Iron Man 2 started practically from the beginning with action. Whether it was Iron Man/Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) landing in front of cheering fans with Iron Man cheerleaders in tow. We find out that Stark is actually dying because the chest piece he has is both keeping him alive and slowly killing him at the same time.
Later in Monaco, Stark encounters Whip Lash (Rourke) who cuts his car in half, then nearly kills him. This revelation that the technology is now possible to be made by anyone causes him to rethink his life, but at the same time act completely drunk at his own party. Eventually his best friend Rhodie (Cheadle) dons another suit to take on his friend to try and calm him down.
It's only through intervention by his best friend, followed by the arrival of S.H.I.E.L.D director Nick Fury (Jackson) and Natasha Romanoff (Johansson) does he finally start to realize who is he, and also thanks to his father, is able to solve the problem he had to do with his dying. Finally, armed with a new suit, new chest piece, and new will, he is able to face off against Whip Lash and his newly built army of drones that were built with the Iron Man technology. He also has to fight his friend Rhodie once more in an upgraded Iron Man costume, now labeled War Machine, but this time he is being controlled by Whip Lash through computer use.
Eventually Rhodie is freed from the control thanks to Romanoff's skill at computers, which is precluded by a kick-ass scene of Romanoff kicking give-or-take seven to ten guards with acrobatics and fighting moves. Rhodie and Stark finally take on the drones with an intense scene of fighting, bullets flying, and energy blasts until eventually they face off against Whip Lash and take him down by firing energy blasts at each other which explodes in Whip Lash's face.
They are honored as heroes, and the movie ends with Stark talking with Fury about something called The Avengers Initiative, followed by agreeing to Romanoff's assessment of him as a narcissist.
After the credits, the audience was also greeted with a nice little preview of Agent Coulson (Gregg) in New Mexico, finding a large hole being dug. The camera then ends the scene closing in on a metal hammer (which must assume that Thor is going to appear in the next film).
Anyway that's my review. I apologize for the choppiness of it and the total spoiler of the movie. Sorry!
Night everyone! And I'm sorry I didn't talk about autism stuff, but there really was nothing to talk about in this case.

What Do You Want From Me?
Hey Everyone!
So another day, another story. It really wasn't extremely busy, it was the usual work and tutoring. Autism-wise I think the only thing that happened was my whole being alone soon at home. I know I'll be safe, but for some reason I can't make that stick in my head to allow me to get sleep and everything...I feel as though as soon I as go to bed, someone will break in...when the last person who broke in was a friend (long story, won't go into it).
Anyway other than that, I'm seeing Iron Man 2 today which definitely is making me excited. I will definitely give everyone a review of it when I get back home.
As for the title of my blog? Well it's Adam Lambert's What Do You Want From Me. Which you can watch below or click it twice to head to it on YouTube.
That's all tonight!

I Have a Love/Hate Relationship with Thunderstorms...
Hey Everyone!
So the reason for my title is quite simple. Thunderstorms. Today we had a lovely storm which basically was a love/hate relationship for me. On one side, I absolutely love seeing the lightning bolts and hearing the rain is almost therapeutic for me. At the same time, it goes back to Grade 7 when I had this absolute phobia of tornadoes and if a storm even had a chance of occurring, I'd for some reason think that a tornado would happen even if it was just a dark cloud that just signified rain. I just couldn't get it through my head that just because it's a bit of cloud cover, that doesn't mean a tornado is going to happen.
I have a feeling this is something to do with my autism, and not just some form of phobia. But anyway, that's that. As for my day, it was a pretty dull. Work, tutoring, and I bought my ticket for Iron Man 2 (I already bought it, but I had to take the pre-order form in to get the actual ticket.)
Anyway, that's all for tonight!

How...Annoying
Hey Everyone!
So interesting stuff to tell today. It's something my mother recently realized I guess and something I suppose I've known for quite a while but I guess talking today more or less just brought it forward a bit more. Basically according to her, when I ramble and talk about things more and more and never stop, it can be very annoying. Which I already knew. But my Mom believes that in my brain, I'm just not cluing in that with this factor, it makes me seem unintelligent or a know-it-all or just makes people not really trust what I say. I'm not sure really how this works...but whatever.
Anyway, in case you can't tell, this basically was what happened autism-wise. I prattled on and on about something that happened in Glee today and as a result my mother came up with this above sort of paragraph (paraphrased by me as I can't completely remember exactly what she said).
Anyway that's all for tonight!

Sleep is Bliss
Hey Everyone!
Okay so I apologize for having posted the coming soon message, I just had been so exhausted for some reason yesterday that I had to get sleep and couldn't really write or think.
Anyway, what happened yesterday? It was a relatively busy day, banking to deposit some checks, Rogers Video to get a video game and return some, and then work with Chris. Now what do I need to talk about today? Nothing really, I just have nothing to talk about. Sad isn't it? But hopefully tomorrow, I'll have a more substantial post :p. (By tomorrow I mean later tonight lol).
Autism-wise, the only thing that happened was lingering on talking about Iron Man 2 the video game. My parents had to tell me to drop it in order to stop me from talking about it.
Talk to you all later!

Headaches Suck
Hey Everyone!
So short post today because I've got a headache and really just want to sleep. I had a regular day, work, tutoring, Desperate Housewives, and Brothers & Sisters. It was just a pretty quick day, and that's basically all there is to it.
Autism-wise the only thing that happened was a lack of sleep because I had been home alone. It's funny it happened since I actually did pretty well prior to last night. It's just because my mind can't just accept the fact no one is going to break in, seeing as how the only people who broke in once before was someone I considered my friend. So that's basically all tonight.

Time Flies
Hey Everyone!
So wow is all I can say these days. It seems like just yesterday I finished my third year, and now it's already the first day of May. How is this possible? Why is it time goes by sooooo fast? Maybe it might be because I sleep till around 3PM each day and therefore all that's left is a bit of the evening, and the night. But none the less, I find it almost ridiculous how fast time is going by. But I digress, the good thing about time going by fast is it means it'll be fourth year before I know it, which apparently is the year that just goes by so fast it's the end, ie. graduation, before you can say 'good-bye'.
Anyway, I don't know if other people feel about this but anyway, all that's left to say is that the day went relatively normal. Work, Tutoring, etc. I also played some video games and watched The Proposal which is such a good movie. Autism-wise I think the only thing I had going on was just getting aggravated over not being able to leave my neighbour's when I wanted to. Once I was done tutoring, Matt's father just asked me several thing about my work with Chris, and I was just thinking in my head 'I want to go home now...please let me go....' But he was just curious about it so I guess I can't blame him for asking questions.
Anyway, that's it for tonight!
