Star Trek ftw!

I can’t really say much else other than what that there title conveys. I don’t want to spoil anything, and I really don’t need to gush about how good it is, because anyone who sees it will indeed see for themselves just how good it is.

So… I increased my LSAT score by 7 points this past weekend. Good.

Oh, and I rocked the heck outta Rock Band on Saturday. I am getting so good at it! My friend is still better, but then I kick butt at Mario Kart, so we’re even.

Alright, updates aside, what I really want to get down to business about is The Big Bang Theory season finale. First, Sheldon. Heart! He was so effing adorable, playing his pranks. They were genuinely funny! He’s come such a long way in developing his social skills. I’m so proud of him.

Next, Penny. I did not like her reaction to Leonard leaving. I just didn’t take her to be the kind of girl that wouldn’t say something to him, or at least she wouldn’t have lied to Leonard when he asked her about it. Also, if I’m going to get picky here, I didn’t think she really needed to speak her mind out loud after she closed the door to him. Really, it was obvious (to us) she didn’t want him to go, and it just grated on cheese for her to have said it out loud. I actually groaned a little on the inside. Surely they don’t think we, the audience, are the kind of people who wouldn’t be able to pick up on the fact that she clearly has feelings for Leonard. This show isn’t really made for the kind of dumb people who need a laugh track to tell them when a joke is funny. (Actually, the laugh track on the show bothers me too; I realize they film in front of an audience, but there’s no way that’s all from them… but we aren’t discussing my feelings on that here!)

Ok, now back to loving it. I’m really glad Leonard left. Not because I don’t want him and Penny to ever get together, but because I wouldn’t have respected him if he’d stayed. Leonard is a smart, sensible guy. I don’t ever want to see him give up an amazing opportunity for a girl who apparently doesn’t even have to ability to tell him how she feels, not to mention she LIED about those feelings right to his face. Penny has to get her shit together, and now she has the summer to do that. Of course, the point of having the main characters separated for the summer is so the writers can shake things up when they come back, and with the show having signed on for two more seasons, this is a good plan. Though let me clarify, I do want Leonard and Penny to get together eventually, because they do make a pretty cute couple.

But anyway, to sum up… the finale = awesome, mixed with a bit of sad because I am to be missing my dearest Sheldon for the summer. I guess I could re-watch last season, then re-watch this season. Actually, I still have yet to watch at least half a season of Heroes, so that should distract me for a while. Sylar and Peter can fill the void Sheldon will leave quite nicely I would imagine. And now I am. They get along much better in my imagination.

Speaking of super hot, Chris Pine… oh but that puts me back on to Star Trek, and I won’t do that in case someone accidentally happens upon this and hasn’t seen it. I realize any true fan has already seen it, but this isn’t just about the true fans. This is about gaining new ones, and I will give them at least a week before I start throwing out spoiler-related comments. So I will just leave it at that, then. Chris Pine.
