I ended up getting all my homework done, 3 tests (two of which I did well on, the third is unknown) and I am now on the last day of my spring break. (BOO). But the convention was too much fun, as usual. I will have pictures and a report up soon, because I know the one person who actually goes here might be interested. I really will get a .com or .net address someday. Oh yes, it will be mine. A couple of highlights...

-Wil Wheaton was cool as usual. He signed my William Fucking Shatner T-Shirt with "Wil Fucking Wheaton." William Fucking Shatner T-Shirts. He was so happy to see someone with one of his shirts that he didn't even charge me for the autograph! Too cool.

-Ricardo Montalban... "KAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHN" Is in a wheel chair with a degenerative muscle disease, but is still as handsome and witty as ever. He gave a very inspiring speech about never giving up and knowing that everything happens for a reason.

-Futurama Episode... Got to see the season finale of Futurama, which is themed off Star Trek! Very funny! Everyone needs to watch it! Unfortunately, Futurama has not been renewed for next year. Fox sucks. Go to Got Futurama to try to save it! There was a panel of 12 people from the show on stage to answer questions including the creator, David X Cohen and the guy who does the voice of bender. (Real names will be in the full con report.)

-Random Stars that are connected to Star Trek showed up... Michael Bein, David Arquette, Bill Paxton... it was pretty cool.

So that's it for now, smell ya later...

No matter what anyone says, Generations is a great movie. I was just out in the main store of where I work, ST:TE, and I watched about 10m of it. Now I want to watch the whole thing, but I'm at work and I can't just spend 3 hrs hanging out in the store. Oh well, I will get my fix of Star Trek in exactly 5 days. I have so much homework too, I just can't get a break! My room is also a mess, much to my mother's dismay. I feel like i'm 12 years old today. Maybe I'll go play barbies. (Yes, I still played barbies when I was 12, sue me.)

Ooops! No rant! I visit the TrekBBS alot, and do alot of my ranting there.

Pasadena Grand Slam is in 8 days!



Just found out that Wil Wheaton, geek extrodinaire, will be there. So will Bill Paxton, Joan Collins and everyone else. My friend Kim and I are going for the 4th straight year in a row. Yes, I am a nerd. OH WELL.

Did you know that William Shatner has a Blog?

Bill's Blog

It's doesn't seem quite as personal as Wil Wheatons, but hey. He's been busy!

My high school english teacher finally wrote me back. (I had written him an email 2 months ago.) And he still remembers me! He's the one who let us watch Star Trek in class, and discuss it as a form of art. He is the coolest teacher ever... he wrote this...

"Good Luck Deedee - I always believed you'd pursue your dream. Live long and prosper."

ahhhhhhhhhhhh... memories.

For those of you who are fans of MTV's "The Real World", they are filming it at the new "Palms" hotel here in Vegas! The people are living on the 27th floor of the hotel, and are doing what they normally do, get up in each others shit, hilarity ensues.
