Dear Blog, 

It's been too long. I think that the last time I wrote was in June. I just lost my popularity for a good few months so decided no one would read my blog so I decided to stop, but now that I'm uber popular again I guess I can write in my blog again. 

[WARNING, THAT WAS A JOKE (if I was popular I wouldn't have a blog in the first place, but you can't say shit cause you're the loser thats reading this)

From, 
Justin Woolley

2010
When I think of this year a lot of things come to mind. Mainly though the things that come to mind are: Soccer, B.C., Trailer, and Music. Not really in that order, because it'd be hard to rate them. I guess I could write a bit about each thing though. 

Soccer - This year for soccer was fun. It started with the sweet world cup pick up games in which I was the master of tipping shots in pick up. Then it lead into the Outlaws games which was a fun year and finished with that intense game against the hounds. Finally, it ended with High School Soccer. We didn't really do that great but we won the Matt Bender Tourny so I guess thats pretty good. 

B.C. - My grandfather is pretty sweet. Women in B.C. seem to love me. Enough said. 

Trailer - I spent more nights in that trailer this year then I have fingers and toes. If you've never stayed a night in the trailer then you're really missing out. Everything from playing risk, to listening to music, to staying up talking all night, to making a quote book, to walking in town and back starts in that trailer. 

Music - This year my musical knowledge increased tenfold. It was insane. People loved my mix cds. It was great. 

Anyways, thats all for now, I'll write more another time.

Gingers

There is a topic I would like to talk about in this blog post, but before I can get to that I better talk about what I did today.

Got up, went to school, wrote a french exam, went home, sat around, played soccer, game here. It's quite the day eh?

Anyways, back on topic. The thing I want to talk about is gingers. If you are stupid and think I mean the plant, then you are wrong and maybe should just stop reading right now and get out from that rock that you live under. Anyways, according to most people, we don't have souls, and should be kicked on certain days. It really upsets me that south park would make fun of us on tv. YOU DON'T KNOW US, YOU AREN'T GOD. UGGGHHH. UUGGGGGGHHHHH. It really hurts me, I act like it dudn't, but it really does.

The truth is, mayyyyyyyyyybbbbbeee we don't have souls, but me and a special ginger friend of mine are saving up money so we can buy our own soul. I know that would mean that we would have to spilt it, and only get half a soul each but I'm sure it would be better then what we have to work with now (and I sorta know how it feels to only work with only half of things).

Anyways, we are a weird bunch I guess. I mean we may not have souls, but we can still be some of the nicest and caring people you will ever meet. But, I swear to god, IF. YOU. KICK. ME. ON. KICK. A. GINGER. DAY. I'LL. KICK. YOUR. ASS.

Thats all.

~Dedicated my favorite ginger friend :)

Wow. I haven't wrote forever. I'll write more in summer cause I'm sure people will miss me in school so need to read about my ramblings. Anyways, this is my 100th post. That's cool. Last Day of school tomorrow.

Monday, March 29, 2010

Wow, my 99th post. I'll be sure to make my 100th one a special one. It's been almost 2 weeks since my last post though, I really need to write more, but just wait until it becomes closer to summer, I always have loads to write about then.


Gta IV is the second best video game ever after Ocarina of Time. It is amazing. I love my PS3 and am playing it a lot more then usual.

I watched a movie called The Third Man. Its a movie that was made in 1949. It's a mystery movie. I can see how people like this type of movie, but I'm not one of those people. I give it a 3/10. Imdb gives it an 8.5/10 and it is there 63rd best movie of all time.

Updates and Top 10 Movies

Wow, almost a month since my last post. I never even noticed that you can title blog posts, so from now on I'm gonna start to do that. I'm also going to start to post more, and I'm going to print my posts out and save them in a binder, so that if the internet ever goes down, I'll always have them.

Anyways, to much went on in the last month to say it all, but I went to Florida and saw avatar. It was good looking, but very predictable. The 3D is amazing. I give it a 8/10.

I want to redo a list I like 6 months ago to show the progress of the fact that I'm watching the top 250 movies on imdb.com. I couldn't even think of ten movies then. You can find that list at http://justinwoolley.blogspot.com/2009/08/well-i-think-im-liking-idea-of-lists-so.html
Everything in quotes is what I have said before about i the movie. 

  1. Forrest Gump - This is what I said about the movie last time. "This is a funny thoughtful movie. I've probably seen this 10 times but it never gets old. I don't expect this to change for awhile. Tom Hanks is awesome in this movie. After I saw the movie, I listened to the audiobook and its just as good. Amazing. Rated 8.6/10 (the #43 best movie of all time) on imdb.com" I agree still with what I said. It gets an easy 10/10
  2. It's A Wonderful Life - "This is the best Christmas movie ever. I just saw this one for the first time last Christmas (probably cause it's 3 hours long and I would get bored of that before). It is an amazing movie and the actor who plays the main character is amazing. Im going to download the radio drama someone made for this movie. Rated 8.7/10 (#32 of all time) on imdb.com" I agree with that, but never got around to downloading that radio drama. I give it a 10/10.
  3. 12 Angry Men - "Last night, I watched my 4th favorite movie ever for the first time. That movie is 12 Angry Men. In 12 Angry Men, there is a murder case with 12 jury members. All must vote unanimous one way or the other. Of course, 1 votes non guilty while , the other 11 vote guilty. The one man eventually convinces all the other 11 to vote non guilty. It's an amazing movie, and was made in the 1950s. It's all in black and white, and really only has one scene, but, it's amazing. I was still thinking about this movie today in school." True, but it moved up and is now my 3rd favorite movie ever. 10/10
  4. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope - Sorry for the full name of the movie. Heres what I said. "A lot of people like The Empire Strikes Back better, but A New Hope is really the best in my opinion. This is the best science fiction there is. The whole series is great though. This also has the best radio dramas, because the radio dramas explain the story better then the movie itself. Rated 8.8/10 (#12 of all time) on imdb.com" Moved up to my 4th favorite movie ever. 9.5/10
  5. The Shawshank Redemption - "The Shawshank Redemption is completely different, but is a good movie. It follows a man who was falsely convicted of murdering his wife, and was caught in jail for 20 years. But, during the first year, he bought a type of chizzle off of a guy named Red, and dug his way out over the 20 years. Along the way, he scammed the prison people, and made himself a millionaire, all while making them kill themselves. It's a good movie, and probably my 4th favorite of all time." Good movie, now my 5th favorite ever. 9.5/10
  6. Slumdog Millionaire - "Another fairly recent movie. A kid is accused of cheating on the india verison of "Who wants to be a millionaire?" so he has to explain how he knows all the answers. Rated 8.5/10 (#72 of all time) on imdb" 9/10
  7. The Good, The Bad and The Ugly - "It is called The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly and was made in 1966. It stars the famous actor Clint Eastwood, and he is good in this movie. Ir is a western movie, and has a lot of story going on. I give it 9/10, and it's in my top 10 movies ever." I give it a 9/10
  8. The Seventh Seal - "Next movie was a movie that came out in 1957. It's called Det sjunde inseglet which translates into The Seventh Seal. This is the best movie of the three movies I watched. It is about the black plague which people believed in about 600 years ago. Anyways, this guy plays a game of chess for his life. It's a good movie and one of my favorites of all time. Probably my 6th favorite actually. Anyways, I give it a 9/10 and imdb gives it a 8.4/10 and its their 117th best movie of all time."
  9. A Clockwork Orange - "Anyways, I just wanted to talk about a movie I watched a few days ago called “A Clockwork Orange”. The movie was made in 1971 and is considered one of the best movies ever by many lists. I’d probably have to agree, cause it’s a damn good movie. Anyways, the movie is about a messed up man who rapes people and beats up people for fun. The whole movie is really weird, but it’s a good movie. He just goes to prison and they try this new type of punishment where they put the man in this place for two weeks and make him watch movies of rape and violence and propaganda and stuff like that. Anyways, he gets out, tries to commit suicide and then the minister gets blamed for trying to kill people by this new method of punishment. If anyone wants to see a damn good movie, this is one to see. I give it a 9/10 and it’s in my top 10 movies of all time. Imdb.com gives it a 8.5/10 and it is their 47th best movie of all time."
  10. Gran Torino - "Tonight, I watched a movie called Gran Torino. It's a new movie make in 2008 and was made by Clint Eastwood. It also stars him so go figure. In it, he plays an old man who moves into a neighborhood with many different races and stuff like that. I don't really want to say much more without giving it away, but it's a good movie. I like Clint Eastwood as an actor too and he did good in this movie. I also like the fact that there were some really funny moments in this movie. I give it a 9/10. It now sits at 9 in my top 10. (imdb.com gives it a 8.3/10.)"
So thats my blog post.

      Hey, this is Justin. I’m sitting in the middle of class now and decided to work on my blog. I’m only supposed to be working on a French speech so it’s no big deal.


      Anyways, my speech subject is books vs. movies. I’m not really sure what I’m going to do about it yet though, cause me and Jason sit here and do nothing and then usually just copy and paste things the last day and pass.

      My trip to Florida is in 9 days, so I’m pretty excited about that. This time I’m going with my aunt and uncle and their two kids so it should be interesting to show people around who have never been there before. They don’t really know what to expect. They think Walt Disney World is like a big version of sandspit.

      Anyways, I just wanted to talk about a movie I watched a few days ago called “A Clockwork Orange”. The movie was made in 1971 and is considered one of the best movies ever by many lists. I’d probably have to agree, cause it’s a damn good movie. Anyways, the movie is about a messed up man who rapes people and beats up people for fun. The whole movie is really weird, but it’s a good movie. He just goes to prison and they try this new type of punishment where they put the man in this place for two weeks and make him watch movies of rape and violence and propaganda and stuff like that. Anyways, he gets out, tries to commit suicide and then the minister gets blamed for trying to kill people by this new method of punishment. If anyone wants to see a damn good movie, this is one to see. I give it a 9/10 and it’s in my top 10 movies of all time. Imdb.com gives it a 8.5/10 and it is their 47th best movie of all time.

       Be warned, I wrote the last paragraph about two weeks ago and now things have changed.

      It was almost two weeks ago since i've last wrote in my blog, so I better get to it. Anyways, in the past week I have got a girlfriend. I really love this girl a lot. Most of you know who she is but ya, I've been thinking about her and hanging out with her a lot this past week and haven't got the chance to write in my blog.

      So ya, I wrote that two weeks ago. I haven't published a blog post in almost a month though. I'm still here though, so don't worry. Anyways, I'm single now so ya, it's a long story and I'm not sure that I really want to publish it on the internet.

      Since the past month I've watched a few movies. 

      First movie was Goodfellas. The movie came out in 1990. It is a gangster movie that runs on a lot faster pace then the godfather. Anyways, it's still a great movie but The Godfather was just amazing. I give it a 8/10. Imdb gives it a 8.8/10 and it is their 14th best movie of all time.

      Next movie was a silent film called Sherlock Jr. It came out in 1924. It was the first silent film I've ever watched, and I liked it. I noticed that silent films are a lot shorter then regular movies, cause this ones only about 45 minutes long. I give it a 7/10. Imdb gives it a 8.4/10 and currently it isnt on their top 250 list, but it was when I first got the top 150 list.

      Next movie was a movie that came out in 1957. It's called Det sjunde inseglet which translates into The Seventh Seal. This is the best movie of the three movies I watched. It is about the black plague which people believed in about 600 years ago. Anyways, this guy plays a game of chess for his life. It's a good movie and one of my favorites of all time. Probably my 6th favorite actually. Anyways, I give it a 9/10 and imdb gives it a 8.4/10 and its their 117th best movie of all time.

      Thats all I have to say for now. I'm going to florida again for march break so I'm excited for that.

      Part 2

      So yesterday, I did part 1 and gave you my favorite songs from 2000-2004. Now it's time to do the second and harder to choose part of the decade.

      2005 - This is probably the hardest year. I have 26 songs in this year that are 9/10 or higher. Three are those are also 10/10. There's 6 Wolfmother songs,4 Green Day songs, 3 Fall Out Boy songs, and 2 Gorillaz songs. My number 1 has to be Woman by Wolfmother. Other good songs are Feel Good Inc. by Gorillaz, Dare by Gorillaz, Lips of an Angel by Hinder, Our Lawyer Made Us Change The Name of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued by Fall Out Boy, Dani California by Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Heaven by Los Lonely Boys.

      2006 - Ya, call me gay, but my favorite song this year is by Justin Timberlake. What Goes Around Comes Around. Other good songs are When You Were Young by The Killers, I Write Sins Not Tragedies by Panic At The Disco, and Trapped in The Drive Thru by Weird Al Yankovic. 
       
      2007 - Not much question here. Stronger by Kanye West. Other good songs are The Pretender by Foo Fighters and Paralyzer by Finger Eleven. Also can't forger Thanks for The Memorys and This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arm Race by Fall Out Boy.

      2008 - This was a year of pop. I'm going to give it to Hot N' Cold by Katy Perry. Second is Just Dance by Lady Gaga, and Third is Jizz In My Pants by The Lonely Island.

      2009 - California Queen by Wolfmother. It's my only song with a 9 or higher, so it's my pick.

      Justin Woolley's Top Songs of the Decade (or a song a year from the 00's)- PART 1

      Justin Woolley Presents: 
      Justin Woolley's Top Songs of the Decade 
      (or a song a year from the 00's) 
      Part 1


      I think that title pretty much explains itself. I like to really put a lot of information on everyone of my songs on mediamonkey, so it didn't take me much work to make this list. I'm just going to go through my playlist by the years, and say my favorite song of each year. At the end I might put a few honourable mentions. I'll also throw in some youtube links so then if you don't know the song, you can hear it. 

      2000 - The first year of the decade is already a hard choice, but I pick In The End by Linkin Park. It was close between this and Colt 45 by Afroman, but I think i'll remeber In The End in 20 years before I remeber Colt 45.

      2001- Woah, take the toughness of last year and make it harder. I pick Good Ridance (Time of your life) by Green Day. At one point that was my favorite song, and maybe it still is, I'm not sure. Second place was Clint Eastwood by Gorillaz, a song I'm sure not many people have heard.

      2002 - No question here. United States of Whatever by Liam Lynch.

      2003 - Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes. Enough said.

      2004 -  Hmm... tough choice. A punk rock song vs a rock song vs a soundtrack song vs a pop song. The punk rock song wins this one. American Idiot by Green Day is the winner. Other good songs where: All These Things That I've Done by The Killers (the rock song) Accidentally In Love by Counting Crows (soundtrack song) and Catch My Disease by Ben Lee (the pop song)

      So, thats part 1. Click those links, tell me how bad of a taste in music I have, then stay tuned for Part 2.

      Tuesday, January 12, 2010

      I downloaded this program that shows lyrics scrolling on my screen as a song play. It's a good way for me to figure out the lyrics of the song without having to look it up everytime, because it downloads them automaticly. It's called minilyrics.

      We're getting highspeed the 26th, I'm getting a ps3 asap and I'm getting the old computer. It's all looking pretty good right now. I think I'm gonna download this program where I can control both my laptop and the old computer I'm getting with one mouse and keyboard. I'm pretty excited about all this. I've decided to make the old computer run faster, that i'll install ubuntu and just dual-boot it with windows incase I need windows for anything.

      Anyways, I've watched two movies recently which I could talk about.

      The first movie was A Christmas Story. I think i've seen bits and pieces of this movie loads of times on tv, but I finally watched the whole thing in two music classes. It's a pretty good christmas movie, but defenitly isn't better then It's a Wonderful Life. I give it a 7.5/10

      Second movie was Schindler's List. This movie was one on the Top 250 list. It's about this man named Oskar Schindler who saved jews by letting them work in his factory instead of being gased. It's a good feel good movie, but I think it is a bit overrated. I give it a 7.5/10 (imdb.com rated it a 8.9/10 and it was their 6th best movie as of Sept.28.2009.)

      Thursday, January 7, 2010

      Hi, I have 10 minutes to write before I have to  go to bed, so I better get to it.

      Today was an ok day. Math was boring, english was ok, gym was ok, lunch was good, music was probably the best class, and then french was boring.

      Math was math. English we did some sort of test that americans supposedly have to do in 25 minutes. It took me 35 when taking my time, so I think that that isn't that much time. In phys.ed, we were in the class so we pretty much talked about guidance type stuff all class. During lunch I played basketball and lost big time. During music, I went over to the other side of the room to sit, and think it was better. The people over on the other side actually know a good song or two. I'll probably go sit there tomorrow again. French was french.

      After school, I took the bus home, played rock band for a few hours, ate, went online for a few hours, and now im going to bed.

      2 Films and a Dream

      I watched 2 movies in a row yesterday that I want to talk about. They were both comedy movies, and both good in their own ways.

      First one I watched was a movie that just came out recently. It's called the hangover. It was pretty good. It's about these guys who lose their friend in Las Vegas and their story to find him. It's a good movie, and has some funny parts. I don't laugh easy, and any comedy movie that can make me laugh out loud once is good. I give it a solid 7/10. (Imdb.com gave it an 8.0 and rated it there 239th best movie of all time as of September 28th 2009, which was the date I got the list and made it into a Word document.)

      Second movie I watched was Life of Brian. It was made by the same people who made Monty Phython and The Holy Grail, and I rated that movie a 5/10. Anyways, this is about a man named Brian who is a jew at a time when the romans didn't like that. It's also a comedy, and I give this one a 7/10. (imdb.com gave it an 8.1/10 and rated it their 156th best movie of all time as of the same date as above.)

      So, last night I had an interesting dream. I don't usually remeber my dreams, and when I do they usually are quite interesting. So, I think I was at some sort of scout camp or something somewhere in Maine. There was a lot of people there, probably around 1000. Anyways, they had a stage set up, and these presentations were going on. I was sitting next to a pretty blond headed girl who asked me what my name was and I said Justin. She seemed like a bubbly girl. Anyways, we started to talk and then by the end of the presentation we were holding hands. So later, we go for a walk and talk while holding hands. She says her family travels a lot and she wishes her family would stay in one place and that she really loves it in Maine. Then, all of the sudden, we walk down this hill and I see all of Walt Disney World. It was really really odd. Then, she says she loves Walt Disney World. I then kiss her. It was a pretty good kiss haha. Then, her dad walks by with an angry look on his face and tells his daughter it's time to go. I then say something like "nice dancing sir". Then I woke up.

      It was an odd dream, very odd.

      Friday, January 1, 2010

      Time to write in my blog. Today, I really didn't do much. But, I guess I don't do that much any day unless I have school or some form of a sport. Anyways, my internet is down so I don't know when this blog post as going to go up. Well I mean obviously it's going to go up when the internet comes back up, it's just that I don't know when that's going to be.


      Well, I got one of these necklaces for Christmas and it's called a dream capsule or something like that. It's sorta shaped like a mini bullet and it twists open. It comes with a little pen/marker thing and these little pieces of paper. So, what you're supposed to do is write your dreams or goals on the paper and then put the paper in the capsule and then you always wear your dreams with you. Well I don't know if what I wrote will happen, but it has been a goal of mine for awhile. Anyways, metal usually gives rashes on my skin, but this seems to not be giving me a rash and I've been wearing it for a day now.


      I watched a movie today that was on my top 250 list finally. It was Pulp Fiction. Now, Pulp Fiction is a movie that has 3 completely different stories that fit together in the end in a way. It's a good movie, and I give it a 9/10 and as of now it's my 8th favorite movie ever. (On imdb.com it was given a 8.9/10 and is their 5th best movie of all time.)


      I guess that's all I have to say for today, I have hockey practice tomorrow so that will give me something to do.
