My mum's offering to get me stuff from Amazon.com for my Christmas present. Clearly I get my imaginative side from her. So:

What are some good DVDs and books you would recommend?

Um, hi!!!!

Uh, have no idea. *has little knowledge of stuff in general*

The Winter Guest! It's directed by Alan Rickman, and has Sean Biggerstaff yelling "my penis is on fire" or something like that.

Sweet Sixteen, because you were recced that and I am such an eavesdropper.

You should get China Mountain Zhang, which deewhydeeax is currently reading.

Have no knowledge of anything gay though. Or anything remotely interesting.

[ztrin]

Oooh, shall get those. :D

[alldoubtaboutit]

UM. OMG. JUST REMEMBERED.

AMERICAN HISTORY X.

OMG. I WANT TO WATCH THAT. AND SO YOU MUST GET IT. *HAS WARPED LOGIC*

[fish_ness]

It's good. <3333
Edward Norton is teh sex. ( Have you seen him in Fight Club?)

(I know this is random, seeing as how you don't know me...)

For the DVD, Unbreakable, my fave movie evah.

For books, look here.

Unbreakable made me weep, man. I was like, phooey on those people who said it wasn't as good as the Sixth Sense.

Shall check out the book recs, yay!

Trin, hey. I hang around reading your livejournal. Don't freak. :D I'm asking for this for someone else's Christmas wishlist: can you give me the Mandarin translation of Padma Patil? Please?

Re: random lurker

I'd love to, but it might take a while. I've lost my Chinese copies of HP so I'll check out the nearest library for the Chinese books. Does your friend want the phonetic hanyu pinyin translation of Padma (like, the hanyu pinyin for Harry would be Ha Li) or the real translation with Chinese characters? Because my browser isn't enabled with Chinese characters. :(

Re: random lurker

[alohi]

OMG thank you. That is so awesome. Anything I can do for you in return? *worships* I don't know, she did not specify, but I think Chinese characters. :( Actually my browser isn't enabled either. I do know how to read and write some Chinese but I can't write name words. What do you suggest?

PS: I (and the rest of Malaysia) am incredibly jealous of you since you've FINISHED your O-levels. The SPM is still happily dragging itself out.

I think Cynthia has the Chinese versions.

[ztrin]
