Misfits
My Christmas present to myself was watching Misfits, the British television show billed as "Skins meets Heroes." I find that very dead-on actually. Five young adults (they seem late teens/early twenties?) are doing community service for various petty crimes when they are struck by lightning and given superpowers. Like Heroes (or Smallville) they ( Read more... ) -
Reasons to Write
I really like the story I am still in the process of writing. I wish I was done writing it so that I could read it already! XD -
Beautiful Creatures
I recently read Beautiful Creatures which was fantabulous. Key points being:
1) It's a normal boy falling in love with a supernatural girl
2) It's very situated in the American South ( Read more... ) -
The Sing-off Offs OTR
I was going to make a post about the a cappella group Committed, but I took a nap then watched the new episode instead.
I had a feeling On The Rocks was a goner after they were mostly absent from the opening montage then turned in a clunker for the first song.
I bow down to the Backbeats' Lady Gaga medley which they made their own and probably ( Read more... ) -
A few moments with my not-so-inner child
I've recently watched a number of movies that I really enjoyed.
I'm filing Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland with some of my other favorite films like Marie Antoinette and the Keira Knightley version of Pride & Prejudice for being unbelievably fashionable. Just beautiful clothes on everyone, from the Mad Hatter, the Red Queen and on. Anne Hathaway' ( Read more... ) -
Icons...
I want new icons, but I also like the ones I have and want to keep them.
One option I have is to put ads on my lj. The whole thing is covered in them as it is.

Baker King
With My Girlfriend is a Gumiho still developing, and after finishing Shining Inheritance, I watched King of Baking, Kim Tak Goo (which is also known as Baker King, Kim Tak Goo or Bread, Love, and Dreams). KoB had been beating MGiG in the ratings and achieved "national drama" status (40%+ ratings) so I was curious to see what it was ( Read more... ) -
Glee S2E1
I don't watch Glee too often (the unused minorities in the background make me cry), but I checked this one out because Filipino pride demanded that I watch anything with Charice in it.
Also, because I feared they would treat her badly.

Shining Inheritance/Brilliant Legacy
I couldn't get episodes of My Girlfriend is a Gumiho soon enough last week, so I started up on Shining Inheritance also known as Brilliant Legacy, actor Lee Seung-gi's previous drama. (Lee Seung-gi being the main actor in MGiG.) I had heard that it was good (it hit 40% in the ratings at some point) so I figured I'd take a look at it.

MGiG 3&4!
I'm supposed to finish packing for my trip to SoCal tomorrow, but I wanted to take a few minutes to continue squeeing about My Girlfriend is a GumihoHave I mentioned that the two leads are cute? And that they have matching dimples? (I ended up in front of my bathroom mirror looking to see if I had dimples. I think I have just the one, but my face ( Read more... )
