Have seen it 5 times, so far. Don't want to lose track of viewings, keep losing my ticket stubs which is how I usually keep count.

Watching TDK right now, and it's making me sad. Wishing for what could've been, had the Joker been featured in TDKR. :(

So I got this lousy job in the first place so that I could save up to buy a car. That was to be one of the steps toward real adulthood. I saved up for months with the intent to spend it responsibly. But then the bros convinced me to watch this new show. And unexpectedly, I fell in love with a silly old man. And then I was compelled by love, to have ( Read more... )

I started volunteering my time at the Humane Society because of my growing concern for animal welfare. For most of my life, I gave no thought to the suffering of animals in the world.

He passed away so quickly, yet ( Read more... )

 I am a huge Japanophile. I love the country, its people (*sigh* those bishies are so beautiful, aren't they?), their traditions, the quirky pop culture, manga and anime, the bizaare but delicious food, the awesome music; and lately, even though I hate American television, I've fallen in love with Japanese game and variety shows. The pranks, stunts ( Read more... )

Aaaahh! Midterms are already coming up -- and it seems like the semester just began. Where has all the time gone?? I have very little time to study and complete assignments, I'm seriously lagging behind. When I should be doing homework, I'm usually reading fanfiction (damn it, why is it so addictive? And why do so many writers like McKay, SN, lore ( Read more... )
