Last night I was fortunate enough to be able to go see Ohno’s new movie, Shinobi no Kuni at the Toronto Japanese Film Festival. I really enjoyed it and decided to write a little review about it. There will be MAJOR plot spoilers, so if you don’t want to know anything, don’t read this. If you have read the manga, you’ve already been spoiled xD The ( Read more... )

And it's back again - my usual welcome to the New Year.

So this time the format is going to be a little bit different - no more memes to guide me, just a solid post looking back on 2014 and what I hope will occur in the next year to come. To start off though, a little review of the games I've played, movies watched etc.

I swear, if the snow is not all gone by April I will drop out of school, fly home, and never return to this insane part of the world where winter is never-ending and Spring apparently does not exist. But in all seriousness, I don't remember it being this bad last year? Although I bet next year I'll say the same thing "I don't remember winter being ( Read more... )

And it's back! My annual New Years meme to reflect the past year and welcome the new one!

( So how was 2013? )

I'm sure everyone has heard of Pride and Prejudice that wonderful book by Jane Austen. I'm not one for romance stories but I did enjoy this book quite a bit - as well as the BBC series from way back when. Then, one day, I stumbled upon this little gem. The Lizzie Bennet Diaries - a modern re-telling of Jane Austen's story in the form a vlog run by ( Read more... )

I had an Arashi dream! Well, really it was only a Juntoshi dream but that's cause I woke up after Ohno's part of the dream and had to go to the washroom. Also this was two days ago so I don't really remember it all that well but this is what I do (still) remember ( Read more... )

So. I've been hard at work studying and then I decided to take a break and look through my old photos of when I was in Japan and then I sat back and thought about stuff and I realized I've pretty much hit my 5th year anniversary of being an Arashi fan. I don't exactly remember when I got into them, I just know it was somewhere in between February ( Read more... )

K. So last night I actually had the most terrifying nightmare ever - I haven't had nightmares in a very long time and last night I actually woke up feeling like I couldn't breath and trembling. It was pretty scary - it played out like a legitimate horror movie. I can't remember everything now but I still remember the gist of it (like the overall ( Read more... )

So. A Clockwork Orange. I have this odd fascination with violence, gore, and psychological stuff so this book, when I heard about it, sounded right up my alley. It took a while for me to get my hands on though and when I finally did finals came around and reading it was a bit out of the question. Ironically when I made my last LJ post about the ( Read more... )
