I would really appreciate it if After School would stop with the ... everything XD I mean, it's one thing to be catching my attention with their Flashback performances (last night's Inki Gayo performance was in casual clothes 8D), but then you've got things like Jungah being epically fail and violent and so is Jooyeon and oh, speaking of Uee, who ( Read more... )

Counting down the weeks til I go back. Pretty bummed that I'm missing out on this series going on at the Lincoln Center for Gene Kelly.

Some quotes from the article: (I also think it's interesting that Kelly thought that John Wayne was "the most graceful man" ^^)

“Singin’ in the Rain” isn’t a dance for the stage but for the screen, in which ( Read more... )

Beginning scene of the new HBO series The Newsroom explaining why America's Not the Greatest Country Any Longer... But It Can Be.
I have a love/hate relationship with media/TV shows/movies etc. and the portrayal of the U.S. And I love that this guy has some of the same feelings. I haven't watched the rest of the series, but man, I hope it's ( Read more... )

Lastly, Playgirlz is addicting XD

[ETA] Most amazing live version of the Ghost in the Shell: Innocence opening here from Kenji Kawai's Cinema Symphony in 2007. Watch it. Wow.

So there's this girl. Named Nana. In the group After School. Who's kinda grabbing all of my attention lately. ^^; It's really interesting in that she has similarities to Jessica of SNSD - maybe I have a thing for girls with an "ice princess" image? - but I don't know enough about her to really go crazy for her. The level I do for SNSD, I mean ( Read more... )

I actually went to look up the original songs - never been a big fan of either Bieber or Perry's music and though I didn't care for either of them *lyrically (and was kinda turned off by Perry's lyric MV for Wide Awake, actually...), I could hear what might have interested Pentatonix in terms of arrangement and production. And of course, they ( Read more... )

Yay, some rough Japanese lyrics (LOL forever at "punk & deli" for "punkadelic" XDDD) and very rough English translations~! [ETA] Another rough translation here, care of bluecodI was hoping that the music would match with the lyrics and that there would be at least hints of meta and mwahahaha there is! (I could also be reaching but I don't care ( Read more... )

Man, I had really hoped this would be good. It seemed like it was going to be such a dark interpretation of Snow White and a film where Kristen Stewart could redeem herself and hey, there's Charlize Theron and Chris Hemsworth. But sadly, I ended up feeling very irritated with the execution and the lack of emotional connection to the characters. ( Read more... )

"What nobody tells people who are beginners - and I really wish someone had told this to me . . . is that all of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, and it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not ( Read more... )

With this semester, that is~ Gonna let this last edit stew for a bit before I do the last proof and send in my last paper for this semester 8DDDDDD. This year has been amazing, but I am *so* ready for summer. (Missing being Boston, actually ( Read more... )
