Still a trekkie at heart


I was so bummed when I thought that I would have to miss it. But on the 2nd week since its release, my sweetie was the best top bring me to watch it right after church this beautiful Sunday morning.

I am so happy! I actually teared up even before the opening credits rolled! Sad! But I have watched Star Trek since... Shucks! Since we had it on local tv. No cable pa at the time.

I am a fan of the original and of the Next Generation. Deep Space 9 was ok but I was in the middle of college then and I couldn't follow it as much anymore.

What a thrill to see them all in that age. Fuuuhhhnnneee! I was laughing because for the most part they got the mannerisms and accents down. I appreciated the casting all except the guy who plays James T. Kirk. No one beats the original in my book.

Seeing Winona again was such a surprise. To find her in a mother role was so surreal. But glad to see her on the big screen again.

Seeing the USS Enterprise come out in their supposed maiden mission gave me such goosebumps.

Can you imagine I used to collect Star Trek cards and would repeat Klingon phrases on my own. I am such a geek but those were fond fond memories.

I can go on and on and on and on. :D
