">New Desk, Wii Fit, Dark Knight
July 23rd, 2008 @ 2:03 pm

First off in reference to my last post Cleaned Desk, Kinda … I now have a new desk haha! Sunday morning I went into Target to buy a wii fit and also to purchase a lovely new desk. My old one was a $40 desk from Circuit City that was a piece of crap (it is now in the dumpster :)). The new one is by Sami Hayek and retails for $149, but for some reason at the Target I work at it was $129 and with my discount that made it $120. I LOVE IT. It’s so big and has a huge drawer and a cute side glass top where I can put pictures. I went from this:

The desk was put together Monday night with the help of my friend Brittany, and I am not quite used to it yet. But I love it :)

As I said, the main reason I was at Target Sunday morning at 8am was to get a Wii Fit! SO. MUCH. FUN. They sold very quickly too (we also has Wii’s in and Mario Kart and about 15 people were already there when I got there). I haven’t done the Wii fit as much as I would like to, but I am trying to get into the habit of at least doing it once a day if possible.Do you have an exercise routine? If so, what? If not, ever thought of doing one? I also bought some storage things from work when I was home about a week ago, and currently one is under my desk for storage and has my printer on top of it while the other is next to my TV and has my wii, games, and accessories on it. I needed something to store my wii stuff and it works perfectly, image is to the right. Click here or click the image for a larger view.

I also saw Dark Knight on Sunday since I was off with some friends, BEST MOVIE EVER! May go see it with some co-workers in I-Max, it’s a movie I definetly would pay to go see again! Have you seen it you yet? If not, what is your favorite movie so far of 2008?

    The Dark Knight is definitely the best movie of 2008 hands down. It was absolutely amazing, and I’m not even a Batman fan!

    :O Wii Fit! I want it so bad, but I can’t get it since I just got Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess the other day >>

    The desk looks good, I really need a new one. As for The Dark Night, I’m not going to see it, I’ll just rent it when it comes out on DVD. I can wait. :)

    Ooh, I love your new test! So organised and neat. If only we had Target here in Cananadia, I’d be tempted to look at getting that desk myself :).

    Erm, I meant to say “desk” *facepalm.* Sorry, it’s been a long day o.0.

    I love your new desk. Very sleek and nice. :)

    AND OMG THE DARK KNIGHT I WANT TO SEE IT SO BAD. I’ll probably just end up DLing it. -_-

    I work guest service, front lanes, and very rarely food ave.

    That’s a pretty sweet desk, I havent seen it. But I really havent been over to furniture in a while, since I bought my last desk which is now falling apart lol.

    I really want a Wii but it seems we never have any and when we do I never know about it.

    I’ve been dying to see Dark Knight, I’m finally going to be able to do that today.

    I do not think that your old desk looks too bad, but looks can be very deceiving. Your new one is definitely an improvement though, it looks very modern and classy with the black.

    Well done on getting Wii Fit. Here in England is virtually impossible to get your hands on one. My boyfriend has been wanting one for months and has still not come across a store that has them in stock.

    I do not have an exercise routine, I do do quite a bit of walking as I work in retail and would rather walk places than pay extortionate bus fares, so that is my daily exercise.

    I have not seen the Dark Knight, but my friends that have seen it have said that it is very good. I am not a fan of superhero programs / movies like Batman and Superman etc as a general rule, so I am unlikely to go see it.

    Wii Fit…hahah. Is it actually any good or is it just a gimmick? Nice new desk too! :]

    I am so jealous that you have Wii Fit! I keep trying to get my hands on it but every time a store gets just a few in they are gone in minutes. I also keep hearing very good things about Dark Knight. I’m not a batman fan, but I might have to see this movie.

    Ahh Wii Fit. I should buy it but I’m tooooo cheap. My favorite movie of 2008 is the Dark Knight, followed by IRON MAN!

    My aunt was going to get the Wii Fit, but she never has time to work out let alone use it. And now I want to see The Dark Knight because everyone says it’s a good movie, and I want to find out for myself.

    Nice desk! I love how it has the glass top on the side that’s nifty. I haven’t seen Dark Knight yet but the way everyone just keeps raving about definitely makes me want to see it soon, although I’m not sure if most of the hype is Heath Ledger or the actual movie itself.

    I do have an excercise routine yes. I do three 30 minute workouts 3 times a week and I play tennis or go swimming at least once a week. I try to keep to three meals a day (no snacking) and I make sure I drink plenty of water. I really want to start doing Pilates once a week. We’re thinking about buying a Wii Fit for Christmas this year. I’ve not heard a bad review about it yet.

    The Dark Knight is so brilliant isn’t it?! Christopher Nolan is a complete genius! It HAS to be the best Superhero/Comic book film ever made. I was meant to go see it again at the IMAX earlier this week but I was ill =(.

    I love your new desk. It’s really great! Glad that you love it =)

    Lovely desk! It’s gorgeous and comfy!!

    I played the Wii Fit and had so much fun! Sadly, I don’t have a Wii.

    I also saw the Dark Knight and it was amazing! I loved it so much!

    Your new desk is so pretty! I need to replace mine since the front edge is flaking off and stabbed my finger the other day! :) Bad desk! I love how you can put pictures in it.

    I really want a Wii Fit but they sold out of them where I live. So now we have to wait for them to get some more in. My friend has one and it was so fun playing on it. What Wii games do you have? I love my Wii but I don’t really know what games I’d enjoy playing and our Blockbuster has no good Wii games to rent. :(

    Now after hearing you rave about Dark Knight, I wanna go see it. I’m going to make my boyfriend go see it with me now! Haha. Take care! :)

    Yeah, I’d definitely pay to see it again. :D

    I still have to clean my desk. :( But yours looks so neat!!!

    Ahh Dark Knight was really good. I really liked the elements of humor in it best– such a thing could have been easily lost or have failed miserably, but it was well placed- like the scene where the Joker comes out of the hospital in nurses garb and cant get the bomb to detonate, hahaha

    I wanna get WiiFit but I am so friggin’ broke right now :(

    As for The Dark Knight, I’ve yet to see it but I hear such amazing things about it.

    Wii and Wii Fit is so on my Christmas list! It’s so hard to find them here today. Your new desk is so cute. I love Target! I saw the Dark Knight on it’s opening day and I cannot wait until the DVD!

    That desk is gorgeous! Mine’s just a simple black one without any drawers. The glasstop on it looks awesome. And I see you’re a fellow machead :) Thumbs up for that =D
    The Wii fit seems fun. I’ve never tried it though =(
    And I haven’t seen Dark Knight yet, been too busy and too broke, but i will see it soon since everyone says it’s so great.
