I wanted to do massive picspam of the cast, but then I decided I want a new mood theme. And then I decided I want a new Chris/Zach mood theme. Chaos ensued.

still in the midst of exams
one;
But I was so bored of studying that I finally caved and got a Twitter. Yeah, I am a slow follower like that. Hit me up with yours, and let me know if there's people/celebrities that I absolutely have to follow.
two;
All those posts about the new Supernatural episode is making me sad that I'm so damn behind on episodes. Twelve episodes. TWELVE. What is wrong with me? In other TV issues, just renew Chuck already, NBC!
three;
I haven't posted music in a while, have I? Check this band out if you don't already know them.
Sample: Malbec - Answering Machine
Yes, it's that song in Chuck where Morgan quits the Buy More, strips of his shirt, and tries to carry Anna out of the store. (See! How is that show not worthy of a third season!) Malbec has a bit of a pop, electronic, hip-hop, rock sound to them. Yeah, it's a mesh of everything. It seems like they're still experimenting around with their style, but it's good music all around. They just released a string of EPs over the past months, a set of 5 Answering Machine EPs, one per month. A weird little concept thing, I suppose. I haven't had the time to listen to all 5 EPs yet, but I'm liking what I heard so far. They're good to listen to on a lazy afternoon.
And yes, I'm cheating since I'm technically not uploading anything for you. Well.

Project reports, presentations, and to add to that, examinations start next Tuesday. So you would think I have absolutely no time to do stupid things.

happy chinese new year
one; New layout! I love it so much. I know the links list looks bad in IE, but I'm kinda lazy to fix it. But hey, 500 Days of Summer banner! I didn't know it was possible to fall in love with a movie just by watching a trailer.
two; Waiting for reunion dinner to start (And no, I'm not helping my mom to prepare the food because I'm lazy, but mainly because I would be more of an hindrance anyway). Thought I would post an album I've been meaning to for a while.
Similar: Snow Patrol, Bell X1, Matt Pond PA, Youth Group
Favorite Tracks: Cartwheels, Cold Water
So everyone knows Snow Patrol and its frontman Gary Lightbody. But did you know he put together a Broken Social Scene-esque music supergroup? Yup, The Reindeer Section. It's undeniably Gary Lightbody right there, with his gorgeous voice and melancholy lyrics. He describes the group's sound as "pretty much all very slow, quiet, folky-type stuff", and it's exactly so. While Snow Patrol tends towards the pop rock genre, The Reindeer Section is quieter and prettier. Nevertheless, if you're a fan of Snow Patrol, particularly of their older stuff, you'll like this.
To all who celebrate it, Happy Chinese New Year! To the rest of my flist, how are you guys? ♥

drive-by spam
I'm really supposed to sleep, since I have a class at 8.30am tomorrow, but, oh well. So anyway, I hated Boys Over Flowers so much in the beginning. Jan Di was all kinds of annoying, and I was so biased towards Inoue Mao's Makino and MatsuJun's Domyouji. But now? It's so easy to love it once I disassociate it with Hanadan and see it as a separate entity. Oh Goo Jun Pyo ~
Also, I'm so in love with Ee Jung/Ga Eul. They're too adorable. Oh Kim Bum, why you so pretty.

(from here)
And also, BOF post in ONTD. LOL.
And also, I'm sick! Damnit! 3 days before Chinese New Year and I get the cold? Argh.

one; So. The reason for the lack of update is my laziness to set up my friends groups so I can spam the proper people. But now it's all done. So prepare to be spammed.
two; Cleaned up the flist too. Removed some dead journals. Let me know if you're lurking and want back on.
three; Defriending amnesty day. I know I haven't been around, and my attention span in each fandom is atrociously short, so if you think we've drifted apart or something, go ahead.
four; The difference between my 'friends' and 'friends of' is 84, which is quite a number. Please don't lurk out there. Comment so I can add you back! If you don't say anything, I won't either.

3am. It's raining. And it's quiet and peaceful, and you can almost believe that you're completely alone. I adore nights like these. It's too pleasant a night to spend sleeping or studying, so I'll just take the time to breathe in the cold air and listen to soft and pretty music.

i'll keep you a secret
one;
Yes, I know I need to stop disappearing for random patches of time. But hey, I bet you didn't even notice, did you? Heh.
two;
Updates? Eh, my life is still boring? Well, last day at work today. After this, 3 weeks of absolutely nothing before I start school. Woe. I'm determined to have fun in the next 3 weeks! Starting with a music journalism workshop tomorrow! And gosh, need to catch up on TV. Entire seasons of Lost and One Tree Hill, plus those unwatched Friday Night Lights and Smallville episodes. And oh, that last episode of Grey's Anatomy. Can't bring myself to watch it, for some reason.
three;
Still stuck on anime and jdrama love. Maou's got potential, mainly because Ikuta Toma is still unbelievable adorable. Code Blue is kinda entertaining, a guilty pleasure of sorts, although I feel nothing for their characters; more character development, please. Osen is cute, alive and brimming with philosophy and human drama.
four;
Here, music, have it.

Russian Red - I Love Your Glasses (2008)
Easily my favorite discovery this year. I can't stop putting it on rotation ever since I first heard it.
Russian Red is Lourdes Hernandez, a young female singer-songwriter hailing from Madrid. With female singer-songwriters on the rise (think: Feist, Regina Spektor), it's easy for one to be lost in the crowd, but you'll be missing out if you dismiss her as such. The instruments are rich and bold in their experimental arrangement, and that quivering voice, so hauntingly gorgeous. Once in a while, you come across a record that is new, fresh, ingenious, beautiful, and still a well-kept secret, and you think, ah, let me have some time alone with this before the rest of world discovers it. This is one of those, a best-kept secret, at least for now.
I'm just waiting for one of her songs to appear on the upcoming season of Grey's Anatomy.

Beautiful, emotional instrumental music, perfectly for a quiet evening. I love to just snuggle under the blanket and play this CD. The Japanese duo, made up of Akihiko Fukaura and Yukari Katsuki, is well-known for composing songs for Japanese dramas, and recently for the anime, xxxHOLiC. These talented musicians have a knack for creating music that expresses what words can't. Infectiously sorrowful and forlorn, the delicate melodies will soothe souls and stir hearts.

3. one famous person to fight alongside you.
* Weapon can be real or fictional; you may assume endless ammo if applicable. Person can be real or fictional.

Nada Surf - Lucky (2008)
If you're a One Tree Hill fan, this name shouldn't be unfamiliar to you. Always Love? Remember that track? Back with their 5th album, they're better than ever. Such is the band’s melodic power the sensation is like slipping into a warm bath rather than eavesdropping by the psychiatrist’s chair.
sample track; The Film Did Not Go Round
Everyone's gotta leave their love sometime
If not now, then at the end of your life-time
You'll be waiting by my bed I know
And your last little words will be I love you so
The shutter clicked, but the film did not go 'round
I touch these strings, but cannot touch the sound.

Their debut album was one of favorites, and it's still on constant spin. Very fortunately, the couple has avoided the dreaded sophomore slump and has delivered a solid, layered, darkly romantic indie pop album. I say 'darkly romantic' despite the pleasant boppy tunes. To understand, read the history of this husband-wife duo. While the couple is now married and in love, the album is not altogether sappy. Sure, this album has its moments of sweet undiluted love, but it dives down to the underside of love with its sharp intuitive lyrics. All in all, it's sweet and pretty, but not without depth.

zombies and fairytales

I dreamt of zombies last night. (And no, I haven't seen any zombie movies since I Am Legend, which was Christmas last year. Does Cloverfield or the trailer for Fringe count?) They wore a thin white film over their faces. The white film either came from their mouths when they changed or they grabbed it from somewhere. I can't remember. And the people around me became zombies rather randomly. It was some unknown trigger, but I don't know what, and that lack of knowledge is freaky. But it wasn't really a nightmare. Sure, it was a little scary, with the chasing and the running and the grabbing, but I wasn't really frightened out of my wits. Everything was just white. And green. There were trees and water. But not the murky humid kind. It was more of, ethereal. Yeah, zombies with white faces in a fairytale setting. Brain, what's up?

Oh Twilight fandom. While I'm not one of the pioneer fans, I like to think of myself as one of the earlier ones, before the fandom exploded with a million pre-teens. I got it for my birthday in February last year, and I brought New Moon a week later. I love the book for the guilty pleasures it offers, the innocence it invokes, and the epic love it represents. Now, maybe it's the hype surrounding RPrattz and KStew, maybe it's the fandom itself, I find Twilight... ridiculous. I've read the first chapter of Breaking Dawn, and my first impression was that it's funny. Cheesy-lame funny, not sweet-cute funny. Maybe I've been exposed to the glittery comments on ONTD for too many times. Before this August, I definitely need to shut off from the fandom (and hatedom), curl up with a cup of iced tea, and recapture the magic of Edward Cullen.

And is this me posting an album with every entry? I don't know. Do you want me to? Perhaps as penance for being missing for almost 6 months? There's just a whole bunch of new releases this year that I really want to share. The Submarines, Nada Surf, The National, The Weepies, The Raveonettes, etc. 2008 is a good year for music. I don't even know what my Album of the Year will be.

Oh Twilight fandom. While I'm not one of the pioneer fans, I like to think of myself as one of the earlier ones, before the fandom exploded with a million pre-teens. I got it for my birthday in February last year, and I brought New Moon a week later. I love the book for the guilty pleasures it offers, the innocence it invokes, and the epic love it represents. Now, maybe it's the hype surrounding RPrattz and KStew, maybe it's the fandom itself, I find Twilight... ridiculous. I've read the first chapter of Breaking Dawn, and my first impression was that it's funny. Cheesy-lame funny, not sweet-cute funny. Maybe I've been exposed to the glittery comments on ONTD for too many times. Before this August, I definitely need to shut off from the fandom (and hatedom), curl up with a cup of iced tea, and recapture the magic of Edward Cullen.

Rachael Yamagata - Loose Ends EP (2008)
I adore this woman. A lot. I saw her in concert last year, and she was beyond amazing. She has the uncanny ability to twirl complicated emotions into her raspy voice and exquisite lyrics. I've been looking forward to her new album for ages now. This EP serves as a preview to the new album, which I expect will be a splendid sophomore offering.

And is this me posting an album with every entry? I don't know. Do you want me to? Perhaps as penance for being missing for almost 6 months? There's just a whole bunch of new releases this year that I really want to share. The Submarines, Nada Surf, The National, The Weepies, The Raveonettes, etc. 2008 is a good year for music. I don't even know what my Album of the Year will be.
