And now for Part 2 of my 2011 Retrospect. For Part 1, Click here. Now it's time to talk about the songs of 2011. I will quickly say I have heard DJ Earworm's 2011 Mashup, and it is again awesome. Let's continue/conclude our retrospect with my five favorite albums of the year.Lady Gaga's Born This Way: While The Fame Monster focused on Hollywood, this album focused on life.

With 2011 coming to a close, I've decided to mention my favorites of the year (and at the same time update my blog). I'm only posting Music and Movies since TV is more seasonal than yearly, but I will quickly say that my favorite Series Finale was Smallville's "Finale", which was AWESOME, and my favorite TV movie was "Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension", which was the best animated DCOM

Wednesday, September 28, 2011, will be known to many in San Diego as the day Cox 4 San Diego lost the rights to the San Diego Padres after 14 years of airing their games, that is all their games NOT on FOX, ESPN, MLB Network, TBS, and etc. Throughout the years, we saw how a small-time cable channel became a full-fledged sports network dedicated to San Diego, with the occasional local shows and

For the past decade or so, channel 4SD (which stands for 4 San Diego) has been the official home of the San Diego Padres, with up to 140 games being aired on the network (the rest being on FOX, ESPN, TBS, or the MLB Network). The network also airs some events from SDSU and USD, and talks about the Chargers (those rights are with KFMB, the CBS affiliate).This year is the last in a 10-year contract

There are many ways to attract readers to your blog/FaceBook/Twitter/YouTube page. Here's a brief list of the many ways you can bring them to you.State that you have some unreleased song by a certain dead artist, such as Elvis.Tag a popular TV show or movie on your post/video, such as Family Guy and Inception.PUT SOMETHING IN CAPS! IT'LL MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'RE AWESOME! (Not Really)Promise

Once again, my education has become a priority to my blogging, but don't worry, I'm still here. If you haven't noticed, I put up a review of ALL the live-action Superman movies on my other blog in three parts, which you can go read starting with Part One and enjoy it!

With the 2010 World Cup occurring right now, I've decided to talk about why I rarely watch soccer (or why I don't care about it like NASCAR or the NFL). There are several reasons why I do or do not watch soccer, some of them are generally agreed beliefs of NOT watching soccer and some are my personal opinions.NO Commercial Breaks: I have to sit and watch for 45 minutes per half, with NO

I live nearby several fast-food restaurants. so whenever I go to any of them, I always pick out only one specific thing from their respective menus. This post states which burgers are my favorite at some of those restaurants.McDonalds: The Cheeseburger. Despite the Quarter Pounder and the Big Mac, I still prefer the simplest one of them all. On occasions, I order the 2 Cheeseburgers combo,

Recently, I have been interested in hanging out with goths, as you can see from this pic, which comes from this website. This may come as a surprise to those around me, since I am usually happy and out-going, while the usual goth would be sad and not wanting to go out. I have, however, managed to find out some information on what goths are, aside from the stereotypes of hating

For those wondering why I forgot to update the blog for the last FOUR months, it was because I was in San Diego State for the aforementioned time, and the mass amount of homework caused me to be unable to type my usually long postings here on the blog. I have, however, been online, mostly on FaceBook and Twitter (with the latter's postings being repeated on MySpace).My classes in SDSU were all

Yes... and No.I am ready for SDSU, for which I am leaving for in a few days, because I'm going somewhere where I am mostly familiar with the region, as I have gone to San Diego nearly every year for vacation (although recently its only been for SDSU). I really think I am able to succeed at SDSU, although some of my early worries are of getting lost around the campus and finding a job in SDSU.The

There are some great moments I've had in my life, such as my graduation (but that's another post) and certain trips. Here are some of my other greatest moments from my life.Swine Flu Madness: Back when the epidemic first came up in May, I was doing homework for my Economics class, which was to trade random items for anything of higher value, at the UABC (Universidad Autonoma de Baja California)

In around a month, I will be going to San Diego State University to continue my education, but I do want to have something to do in my free time (aside from using my laptop and DS Lite). I've decided recently to buy the slimline PS2. To pay for this, I have decided to sell my Original Xbox, which I was given back in 2003 as a birthday present, and use the money from that to buy the console.

(Written on July 18, Posted on July 19 due to tiredness)For those that don't know by now, I'm planning to go to San Diego State University (SDSU) to continue my education. Today, July 18, was my orientation day (or the day to find out everything I still had to do).Basically, it was interesting since they mentioned what classes I needed to take in the upcoming semester and when I would become a

I've reviewed DVDs, TV Shows, and even fan films. But this probably beats them all.A Review of the CMS Class of 2009 Graduation by Accesom Media.This DVD obviously features the whole event along with the reception that followed. Both the audio and video are really great, especially during the ceremony. The party, I believe, is where they (the editors) went insane as it begins to resemble a music

A long time ago, or a few months before the graduation, I had an idea of showing a brief video in between each segment of the ceremony, just like the ones they do in live shows when they're getting ready. By May, however, the idea was reduced down to two videos, the first being the slide show and the second being shown after the Juniors' part in the event. Here were some of the ideas I was

A few weeks ago, I showed a brief 10-minute slide show about the graduating 2009 Seniors during the ceremony. My friends, especially Orlando, tried to convince me to either send them the video or upload it on my YouTube account. Since the former was impossible (the smallest I could fit it was 26 MB), I decided to upload it in two different formats. The first was 16:9 Widescreen, to enjoy the

In Part 1, I talked about the Graduation itself. In this post, I will talk about the reception and the after party in the same format as Part 1.I arrived after a brief stop to pick up my aunt. There was a guy taking pictures of the grads and their parents (again?).The waiter led us to what appeared to be our table (turns out it was the wrong table, but we stayed there).After most of the Seniors

Before I go on to Part 2, I will briefly talk about "The Pinocchio Strategy".In my speech, I briefly mentioned how I did not cry at all when I spoke. I achieved this just by watching Disney's Pinocchio the night before, and for those that don't remember that movie is just one of two movies, the other being WALL-E, that make me cry. I believed that if I watched that movie in particular, I would be

Usually, I would have a photo here, but we all know who to blame for that.Yesterday I had the funnest night of my life. Unless you haven't noticed by now, yesterday was my Senior Graduation at Calexico Mission. The event was great and just perfect. Let me mention some highlights from the event:The procession was great (I didn't know the Juniors were going to hold branches!), especially when I hit

Back in September, I briefly mentioned how I opened a MySpace account to redirect people to my sites (I even made a video about it!). However, since barely anyone reads this blogs (or makes fun of it in a Yearbook), no one knew about it until yesterday when I uploaded a photo of me (coincidentally, it's the same one I had here on the Blog until recently).This just proves my point on how no one

If you're wondering why there hasn't been a posting in nearly a month, it's because I have been too busy (that and because I have found Twitter to be easier to type what I'm talking about).I haven't forgotten about the blog, however. During the long hiatus, I removed the photo and I hope to put a new one later. I also plan to return to regular postings AFTER June 4th, as I am in the last two

I own a lot of movies, from the good (Aladdin and The Dark Knight) to the unusual (Batman Forever and South Park). There are, however, a few films I like but I don't own... yet.Pleasantville: This great film, featuring a pre-Spiderman Tobey Maguire, shows two siblings from the 90s getting sucked into a 50s sitcom and altering it. This is one of the few drama films that I like to watch, and yet I

In this post, I review Sum 41's Greatest Hits "All The Good Sh**", or "Stuff", depending where you bought it.The album compromises 14 of the band's greatest hits, although I don't know why "What Were All About", the band's song from Spider-Man, is not in it.

Today, I went to San Diego State University for the first of two back-to-back weekends I visit the place (The second one will be for an exam). For this weekend, I went for the Open House event, where I not only went to find out more about Journalism, but also of other places, such as the Aztec Aquaplex Center.Before I went to SDSU, my mother and I stopped at the nearby Jack in the Box, where I

I find it hard to believe that I'm writing about an event that didn't finish up with a winner by the end of the week. AGAIN.A few months ago, I wrote about how the ASB did not reveal the final winner until Monday. However, I did not write a follow-up since my class lost. I'm writing one again because for the second time straight, they did not reveal the winners. This time, however, it was out of

Tomorrow is the annual school kermess, or the event in which the school has fun and sells stuff. Occasionally done the night of Alumni Day, a reunion of all the school's graduates and former teachers, the kermess is a time to sell stuff and win money for the classes. For some of them, such as 12th, the money is used to help pay future events, like graduation or trips. It also has given me a fair

Since I have been at CMS since 1996, I have seen a lot of crazy and unusual incidents, most of them involving me. Let me briefly mention four:The very first incident I ever had was on my very first day at school. On that day, I went so crazy that the Mrs. Yvonne, I think, kicked me out. I was able to come back the next day.Another incident, which I was NOT involved, involved the Fire Alarm. At

Twitter, the third largest social network after MySpace and Facebook, is an extremely easy site to use. It's like texting someone on a cell phone, only without the cost.Anyways, the point is that I have produced a new website on Twitter, which will provide quick updates and state what I might be doing, or how I feel. During my free time, or when I'm done doing my homework and reading, I will try

While I was offered the chance to go to either the Calexico 10 Theaters or any of the Cinepolis theaters in Mexicali, I decided not to since:The C1T, in my opinion, is too dirty and too noisy (and no, they do not shoot guns inside the theater).As for Cinepolis, the popcorn tastes like it was salted,

I've decided to add HTML codes to the Blog, such as the one on the right. That one is obviously referring to the recent incident Jack, from Jack in The Box, had.I hope in the future to post some more of these. Also, expect a new video from me to be on YouTube this weekend!Until Next Time,Joel Garcia2009

Yesterday, I briefly talked about how in the past acrobats have been somehow unable to come to the school. At the end of that post, I said I would see how it went.And... They Never Came! But for a good reason.Somehow, they were assaulted. That's all I was told. While I feel bad for that to happen, it also continues a streak of bad luck of the school being unable to get Acrobats to perform at the

No, this is not talking about the Adobe Program. This is talking about tomorrow's presentation and my prediction about it.Tomorrow is the day when the African Acrobats come to the school and perform. I don't have anything against that, but it does remind me of another time when the school tried twice to bring acrobats to perform.A few years back, the school tried to bring Chinese Acrobats to

Welcome to the 75th post ever composed for this site! Let's celebrate with a bunch of facts you may already know about me. Oh , I slightly changed the Blog's name to my new nickname.The nickname "Joey" comes from my best friend Lois.I like watching Knight Rider.High School Musical: El Desafio was the first original Latin American movie, that is non-dubbed production, I ever saw.I hated Twilight

Today was the day history was made.The day when Barack Obama became the first African-American President of the United States.I watched it all happen at school, from Aretha Franklin's wonderful voice singing "My Country, 'Tis of Thee", to Chief Justice John Roberts swearing in Barack Obama as the 44th President of the United States, all during Physics.I later in the day saw most of the Ignaugural

To avoid any lawsuits in the future, I've added a copyright sign on the right to make sure no one sees anything here as the opinion of the school or anyone else involved with the school. I've also added a similar one to my other blog.I've also changed the "Navbar" to Silver in order to make it different from the post, and changed the border color to green.Finally, on January 20, I will try to

NOTE: This post was obviously written on January 8, at 10:16 PM, but dated January 9 to fit my birthday. At 8:00 AM, I'm usually at school.January 9.A great date, since it is my birthday. And today, I turn 18. The date of my birth is unusual, since the date, 1/9/91, is also the year, 1991.It's great since I'm grateful for another year of living, but kinda sad since I don't have a girlfriend.Aside

Recently, I have noticed how this Blog mostly talked about pop culture rather than about me and how I am at school. From now on, I will now try and refocus the blog towards me and move a large portion of the pop culture to another blog I am also working on. The other Blog, which I have provided a link to on the right, will focus mostly on Star Trek and Batman, two things I have mostly talked

As 2008 comes to a close, I'll tell you my best stuff of the year.Best TV Show: To be fair, it's House since that had more new episodes than Heroes.Best Movie: It's a tie between The Dark Knight and Wall-E, since you really can't judge these two head-to-head.Best Songs: "The Time of My Life" by David Cook is nice, but "Circus" by Britney Spears is also great with all its beats.And now for

First off, On Christmas Day, or sometime afterward, I will post up either a post or a video of what I got for Christmas. Originally I was going to call my friends, but since they might be out of town, I'll just write about it or show it.Second, expect another announcement on this blog, since I'm considering splitting it into two different blogs, since It's kinda weird calling it a "Student Blog"

Before you say the same way, which is the Wayne family leaving an event, usually a movie, some mugger, notably Joe Chill, asking for the Martha's pearls, followed by Thomas Wayne trying to stop him, and the mugger shooting them both in front of young Bruce Wayne's eyes, I should state each incarnation made of Batman shows it in a different way. Here's a brief rundown on how the situation is shown

I'm here once again to state the uploading of a new video which will test the Widescreen feature on YouTube, since all of my videos are currently being "pillarboxed" by the feature. After the video is uploaded, I will then sent it here to the blog to watch.As for the new post, I'll put up a post on Batman, mostly due to the fact I just saw another new episode of Batman: The Brave and The Bold,

Recently, I have now found more things to hate. So, I decided to make a small list of them.My inability to receive digital signals: Where I live, Mexicali, I can easily receive at least 7 digital signals, those being 3 Mexican signals, FOX HD, ABC 5, Telemundo, and Univision. It's harder, however, to receive the latter four due to how far they are from my house. Unlike Analog signals, digital

Aside from the new yellow font, and the Green title, I have also modified some other sections of the site, including renaming most of the features, such as the RSS and the YT links. Also, I have now added a new photo of me on both my Profile and the Blog Site. I put up this one because the previous one was taken a week before school, and that photo shows my braces, which I no longer have. Also,

Thank you for voting for Obama.When the clock struck 8:00, I saw the number go from 245-something to 297! I am just glad he won the election and that he is now the 44th President of The United States! Already McCain and Bush have congratulated him, and that to me shows respect for him. I'm also glad for Joe Biden since he will now become the new Vice-President, and for their wives being First and

NOTE: This was written Late Monday, but posted for people to read before they vote.Today is Election Day.To the ones that go out to vote, I say make the right choice (OBAMA). I believe Obama is the right choice since he is young and might be able to solve the economic problem we're currently in (Also, I've been a Democrat since 2003).McCain, I believe is able to do a good job, but since he's

You may be wondering why the title looks a bit like a "fill-in-the-blank" puzzle. I'll briefly explain.Last week was Spirit Week at CMS, where the ASB tries to raise the spirit of everybody at school (the first one comes after the end of the first quarter). What usually happens is that every day the students wear a different costume to school, rather than the uniform (Example: Red Day - Just wear

NOTE: In order to not confuse anyone, I will use the stars' character names for my review.Prior to watching High School Musical 3: Senior Year, I re-watched both High School Musical and the latter half of High School Musical 2 on the Disney Channel, since I thought it would have a similar plot.I Was Proven Wrong.After the lame trailers, the film began with a dramatic-like opening that in my

Since Halloween is coming up, I've modified the blog a bit with some Orange on some of the text and titles, which makes the Green look a bit creepy. Also, I have reduced the number of posts from 7 to 5 since my posts really do take up a lot of space, thus causing the reader to get bored. The new featured I've added is the News bar, which features info on TV, NASCAR, and Windows. Aside from that,

If you hate the films, then please ignore the post.In only a few days, High School Musical 3: Senior Year, the third film of the series, and the first to be in theaters, will be released. But before that, let me tell you my opinion on the first two films, and my opinion on the

A few days ago, Paramount released 9 images of the new "Star Trek" Movie to various sites, including, but not limited to, UGO, AICN, Entertainment Weekly, and Trekmovie.com. The images are all described here:The first reported image was by UGO, in which it features the whole bridge crew, save for Spock. That image, in my opinion, is just perfect (Except for Chekhov. Why does he have curly hair?).

I have previously talked about this nickname in a post of the same name. I, however, will specify the nickname AGAIN for skeptics of it.In that post, I announced that would be my nickname for the Friday uniform, since in the past few years I have refused to put one (I did try to put an X once, but they said no), and because I wanted to have at least one uniform that would look different from the

This is the third straight weekend I have not gone to the "Fiestas Del Sol". Aside from that, I have decided not to go to the "Fiestas Del Sol" at ALL, due to conflicts. One of them being how my mother wants to go on a weekday (Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday), but I want to go on the Weekend (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) (It's closed on Mondays, By the way). Also, I hear everything over there

Where I live, I see tons of crappy TV shows on both American and Mexican networks (Apparently, they still air Dragon Ball Z in Mexico). However, thanks to the internet, you can find a lot of shows, including dramas, comedies, and animated remakes, that air all over the world. I, however, will talk about remakes you probably never heard of (unless you Googled it already).Stitch! (Anime): This show

Personally, I think this Mii looks just like me, except that I don't have a stern face and I don't own any Red Glasses. People also got angry on how the Mii looks thinner than I do. I should say, however, there's no way to make the Mii fat (you can make it "chubby", but that's it).As for my weight, I am exercising whenever I can. My weight also helps people who believe they're fat make them look

Social: Inclined to seek out or enjoy the company of others.For the last few years, I've had problems being social since people want me to speak Spanish (I have never spoken Spanish at CMS except at select occasions). In the school, it is required to speak English since you're supposed to learn English. Most people believe I speak only English because I got some stupid "Spanish ticket" back when

Unless you haven't been watching reruns of old Marvel shows like me on Toon Disney/Jetix, the network is planning to start airing reruns of the two most hated Marvel shows ever made. In other words, Spider-Man Unlimited and The Avengers: United They Stand. Both shows were produced by Saban, licensed by Marvel and aired on Fox Kids for only one season due to either hatred (Marvel's Power Rangers?)

The "Fiestas Del Sol" is a major event that occurs in Mexicali (where I live) every year from late September to early October which involves companies promoting their latest crap, food sellers giving out food, such as Tostitos, tacos, pizza, and churros, TV networks airing live shows (such as the local Mexican channels or even KYMA), and tons of other crap I can mention but I don't want to.Ever

Back when I began this blog, I promised to never to put a MySpace account since in my opinion, You have to go on everyday to see it, where as on the Blog and YT accounts, I go when I'm not Busy. I have, however, created a MySpace account, but I WON'T use it. Instead, that site will hopefully redirect people to both my Blog and YT accounts.So again, I will NOT use my MySpace Account.

Before I begin, let me briefly mention what the DCAU is. The DCAU (DC Animated Universe) was a series of shows made from 1992 to 2006 which featured DC heroes, such as Batman and Superman, in what many consider the finest shows ever made for a Saturday Morning (and Later Evening) cartoon block. While nearly all the shows, such as Batman: The Animated Series and Justice League, have been released,

With Blogger's newest features having been released, I decided to change my blog a bit. Here are the differences:All the links are now highlighted in Green.The "Powered By Blogger" sticker has been moved to the left.An RSS feed has been added, so now you can add it to your personal sites, such as iGoogle, Yahoo!, and Net Vibes.I removed the old poll and added a new poll, which is now on the top

I'm the only one in my class to have been in Calexico Mission School every year, although some came for a few years, then left, and then returned to CMS. Thus, I've decided to list the people who have been in CMS the longest. But because it would take me an eternity to list them from low to high, I'll list them from high to low.Yolanda Johnston: Currently the teacher of History (World, U.S.),

NOTE: The following may be premature, but I feel it important to talk about this.On April 18, 1998, Disney expanded it's empire of networks by signing on the new Toon Disney network, a channel which was made to relieve the Disney Channel's programming lineup, and at the same time re air programs from The Disney Afternoon, a syndicated block which ended just a few years before. Their lineup also

I know it's been a while since I've done a post, although I have uploaded two new Trek videos on my account. But anyway, let's begin.In all my years, I've had multiple nicknames, most of them online. Here are just four of them and what they each mean:Spock2, My YouTube Account (A reference to Spock, the first officer of the Enterprise on Star Trek: The Original Series. The "2" was put for no

Unless you've ignored my recent posts, I have changed the blog's name for the school year, which begins on Wednesday, to Joel's Student Blog. Other edits I've made include the photo, which consists of me wearing the school uniform, and the font color being changed from beige to white. Aside from that, I will reduce the number of posts I put up due to me being a bit busier due to the fact I have A

Here are now brief descriptions of each and every movie:Futurama: Bender's Big Score: Rated PG-13.

With the beginning of another school year coming in just a few days, I've decided to kill off any rumor I've ever heard involving me. So let's begin:I never watched Under The Same Moon. All I know is that it's about some kid going with Ugly Betty to Los Angeles.I don't own, or have never owned, a Speedo AT ALL.I have not used the same shoes for the last seven years.

Rarely do I see a fan film of a TV show, Superhero, or movie I might like and actually like it. Here are the fan films I've seen that I actually like:Batman's Cool Internet Video: In this short film, which was made by the same guys who sang the Pokemon theme song (Smosh), Robin shows Batman a video on YouTube, in which the Smosh guys played Spider-Man Vs. Doc Ock, which has gained millions of

In 1986, when the FOX network was barely becoming famous, Paramount was in the Pre-Production stage of Star Trek: The Next Generation. While that was occurring, Paramount offered the FOX network the new show. However, they would only give them 13 episodes with possibility for more episodes if the ratings were high enough. However, the production crew decided then on going to syndication, where

In this post, which concludes this brief series of comparing new and old shows, I compare Spider-Man (1994) and The Spectacular Spider-Man against each other. But before I compare them, I'll talk about how FOX Kids limited violence in the early 90s.By 1994, FOX realized that most of their animated shows were being banned in other countries due to their excessive violence, such as X-Men and Batman

What better way to go from Batman to Spider-man than to compare futuristic spin offs?In the late 90s', with all the Millennial crap going on, these two Comic Book/TV giants decided to jump to the future, or be more futuristic.In other words: Spider-Man Unlimited VS. Batman Beyond!In 1999, After FOX bought Marvel Animation, it decided to shut down all the Marvel Animated shows in production, which

This could also be considered a review of the Blu-Ray edition since they share the same features, with the only differences being the Discs and the Video quality.Recently, I watched The Dark Knight, and saw it as the best Batman film in years, and with the best Joker (Heath Ledger) I've seen since Mark

WARNING! NO SPOILERS!For those who don't know, there have been a total of about 11 Official Batman films, six of them live-action, and the other five animated, and various Fan Films. Thus I can make a brief list of the Batman films I just love watching.

After delaying it for a week, I will be going, with my family, to San Diego and Tijuana for the weekend of July 12 and 13. My plan is to go on Sunday to the San Diego Air and Space Museum for the Special Exhibition known as Star Trek: The Exhibition, which is running up until November, or so I heard.The Exhibition includes a replica of the original USS Enterprise, from The Original Series, the

Originally, I today was going to go to San Diego for an event, and then talk about it, but due to problems beyond my control, I decided to do something I've always wanted to do: Compare two shows based on the same character made in different decades. Part I is based on Batman, while Part 2 is on Spiderman.Old Vs. New: Batman: The Animated Series VS. The BatmanIn 1992, Batman: The Animated Series

However, it was something completely different from any other film they have ever made.It's both happy and sad at the same time since it features the

A while ago, I went to an event where they asked me if I would like a Diet Coke, but my best friend told the person that I drank only Coke (Classic). While I'm not mad at that, I've decided to talk about my favorite soda and how it depends on where I go.Whenever I go to one of those places where they let you fill up the soda (Jack In The Box, Carl's Jr., In N Out), I don't choose one soda, but
