Kate is a Criminal?!?

Season 1 Episode 3: Tabula Rasa

Tabula Rasa in my opinion the most exiting and action packed episode yet. Even though this is only the third episode of Lost I think we obtained some important information. The group that went to search for a signal with the transceiver groups the whole together telling everyone that the signal strength was not good enough, therefore lying to them about the french women's help call that had been playing for sixteen years.

 Today, we learned that Kate was a wanted criminal (because we weren't sure before) and that  there was a 23,000 dollar reward for turning her in. Jack learns that Kate was dangerous an unpredictable from the injured cop, and also finds a mug shot of her. Jack confronts Kate about her arrest although he denies her when she was about to tell him what happened. I personally was mad when Jack said he didn't want to know what happened because I was getting excited for that exact moment and it all vanished in an blink of an eye.

We just met Walt the son of Michael. Walt's dog Vincent had been missing for the three days that they've been here on the island. Last episode Walt meets and befriends a mysterious man whose name had not been said yet. This man learns that Walt's dog Vincent had been missing and carves a whistle out of wood that attracts dogs and the dog comes running to him. Recently Walt had been mad at Michael for not being able to find Vincent so the man tells Michael that Vincent is tied to a tree. Michael brings the dog to his son who becomes delighted and the whole time it looked like Michael did this for his son. The mysterious man turns out to be a nice man, but at the episode you find him staring at the reunited family however he has no smile, not even a grin.

Predictions for next episode
I believe that in the next episode the group searching for a signal will attempt it again, and or find the other distress signal from the french women. If that signal is stopped they will be able to send out their own signal which could lead to help. I wonder what's going to happen to Kate because a handful of people now know who she really is.

Second Time is the Charm?

Season 1 Episode 1: Pilot Part 2 

Welcome to my third blog and my second one focusing on my topic the show Lost. In this episode we meet Sayid who was a communication officer for his military. We also better met Hurley. Kate was actually, a prisoner (Spoiler Alert). Although Kate seems like a lovable person we and especially the other characters don't know yet that she is dangerous.

In this episode Jack, Kate, and Charlie return to base camp at the beach with the broken transceiver. They ask if anyone can fix the transceiver, and Sayid steps up and fixes it to a point. The battery is very low and the signal needs to be more clear or else the battery would run out quickly. To be able to use the device they must climb the island's mountain to the top. For the second time they hike the mountain they hear a female voice in french calling for help. The message had been repeating for 16 years. Back at camp Jack continues to be the hero by helping a wounded man who has shrapnel in his abdomen. Hurley tries to help Jack with the operation but is not able to because he quickly blacks out by the sight of blood. Hurley seems like a teddy bear to me because he is cheerful, helpful, and very easy going. The man who was being operated by Jack was actually Kate's police guard who was escorting her back to the U.S. but was hit by a suitcase when the plane was ripping apart and unfortunately got hit by shrapnel during the crash. 

Predictions for next episode
In the next episode I believe that Kate will be in a lot of trouble because of the security guard who is supposed to be escorting her. Everyone will know the truth about Kate and how she is currently a criminal. We people in the real world still have no clue why and what Kate did to be a prisoner especially with her kind personality. Is it a trick? I honestly don't think so. I'm not sure why I think that and I can't put my mind to it but I just have that feeling.  I also think that they will find another battery for the dead transceiver and also work on the gadget to enhance its connection to find help.

Time to Relax and Enjoy Christmas Break



It's Christmas break! I know this isn't about Lost but I thought that I would take the time to write a post about whats on my agenda for this christmas break.

I live in a ski town. It's a treasure that many people don't get, or are even able to experience it. Now skiing is the best, and funnest thing to do with friends over break. You can ski all day with out getting burned out, and if you do get burned out you can just wait another year until you are back into skiing. I currently ski at a two Vail resorts called Park City Mountain Resort (PCMR) and the Canyons. They are two great resorts my friends and I ski at. I think i'll ski seven days on our two week break. If you didn't know that Vail won a court case against Powdr Corp who are two very big ski resort operators in America. The court case made Vail able to run Park City Mountain Resort after Powdr Corp operated the ski resort for decades.

My Oma and Opa (My moms parents) are here in town spending their time between my cousins house and my house. The term Oma and Opa come from german speaking countries. Yes, my grandparents are german, and they do live in Germany. Anyway my Oma and Opa are here to visit us, and my cousins. They are going to spend christmas with my cousins. Some reason they always spend christmas at my aunts house. It has become normal to me because they've done it for years, and it kind of feels like a tradition we have.

My family is the active type so we actually went to the Unita Mountains with a permit and cut down our own tree. The tree turned into a really beautiful christmas tree with awesome lights and decorations on it. Sadly, we don't have any presents under the tree yet to transform our family into the christmas spirit, but soon enough the presents I made for my family will be under the tree. Now what do I want for christmas? As a matter of fact I only want one present, and I have a reason of only wanting one. I want Oakley Canopy snow goggles. They are $130 bucks so they are very expensive and that's also my reason for wanting one present.

Very first Episode!

Season 1 Episode 1: Pilot Part 1
Curtesy of ABC
Kick Off to the new blog series! Here, today I am going to blog about the first episode ever in Lost. Today we met the heroic Jack. Right from the start you can tell that Jack is going to be the leader, he is also very brave, smart, and quick thinking. We also get introduced to Kate who is also brave, and Charlie who is talkative and kind of geeky.


They crashed on an unknown island. The cockpit and tail both ripped off the main body before they crashed. 48 survivors. Jack leaps out of the forrest and helps people left and right. First a man with a badly torn leg, next a woman 8 months into pregnancy, and a woman who needs CPR. Jack saves everyone that he helps. I thought that was kind of obvious that everyone would be saved because right from the start Jack seemed like a hero. In my opinion I like how obvious they make people's personalities show because then you get an idea of how that person becomes, and you can also easily make predictions on what that character will do. Anyway Jack goes on adventure backed up by Kate, and Charlie to the cockpit to find a transceiver, which makes them able to communicate. When they reach the flight deck they are suddenly trapped inside by a mysterious noise, when the pilot is taken from the cock pit by the monster thing. They found the transceiver but it doesn't seem to work at the moment. They start to run back to the camp, and really running from the sound, and thats where they left us off.

Predictions for Next Episode

Pilot Part 2. In this episode I believe that Jack, Kate, and Charlie will make it back to the camp, but not without finding the mysterious monster animal who tore the pilot apart, and laid him on a tree. That said I believe that the group of survivors will start to make a more organized place, and make a government to make sure people are under control. I think that Jack will be the leader because he already has shown leadership skills, and bravery. People already listen to him.

Can't Wait for the next episode!
