Welcome to my LJ! I have limited access to livejournal during most of my working day, so this sticky post is here for me to keep better track of my flist. If you've friended me and would like to be friended back, please do drop me a line here. I most likely will friend back if you leave me a comment, though I can tell you that the majority of my posts are public. ♥ |
Give me a character from any fandom, tv show, movie, book you know that I know and I will tell you:
a. My favorite thing about that character.
b. My least favorite thing about that character.
c. One person I would ship them with in their own verse.
d. One crossover ship for them I think would be neat.
e. One crossover universe for them I think would be even neater.
f. Their ship from hell.
g. Their song.
h. The title of their biography or autobiography.
i. The last bad dream they had.
j. How they're gonna shuffle off the mortal coil, if they haven't already.

A few months ago, I discovered a quirky drama CD called "Are You Alice?" written by Ninomiya Ai. I first stumbled upon the title on Morikubo Showtaro's website, and of course that piqued my curiosity. =) I had to start from the 2nd CD in the series, as I initially couldn't find the first one. It was weird and confusing as you might expect from a reconstituted "Alice in Wonderland," but still quite compelling. The story does eventually begin to shape up into something kind of cool, though I haven't pulled all the pieces together yet in my mind.

Hope everyone had a lovely weekend! Mine was rather busy on Saturday, since I went in to work - shockingly enough. Metro was still being sluggish after last Monday's collision, so it took me an extra hour to get in. Not fun! 
mellowTMZ is reporting that Michael Jackson just died of heart attack! O____o OMG no!!

drainedH: Mommy issues are just the beginning for a prince with a murdered father and new Uncle/Step-dad. Most everybody ends up dead.
WK: Angsty florist/assassins kill bad guys, most of their friends and family; lose their minds. Rival team of sociopath bastards steal show.

It's raining pretty steadily here this morning. What is it about rainy mornings that are so hard to deal with? I just wanna crawl back into bed and snooze the day away. Alas, there is a rain mark for every day this week AND next week, except for the lone sunny spot on Tuesday. First we had the rainiest May I can ever remember, and now more weeks of rain. Hopefully things will clear up a little on Saturday, for a BBQ party my friend's throwing.

mlliu came all the way down from New York to be with me for surgery...isn't she great? X) ♥ ☆ 10 Fascinating Angels & Demons - I came across this post a while ago after I watched the movie "Angels & Demons" (which was actually quite good). Kinda wished they wrote about Michael, my favorite angel from Angel Sanctuary. I lol'd at the commenter who said Metratron was a Autobot. (Though he sounds more like a Decepticon to me). Speaking of which....
☆ Transformers USB stick - I want one of these! *___*
☆ [video] Hitler's Downfall was Bad Subtitles - Loved this! A video meme remaking the subtitles to the movie "Downfall" - in particular, the scene where Hitler has a major meltdown. My favorites are Real Estate Downfall and the Grammar Nazi.
☆ He's in Osaka too: Naniwa's 'busakawa' Dog Taro - I learned a new slang word today: "busakawa" - a combination of "busaiku" (ugly) and "kawaii" (cute), referring to something so ugly it's cute. Actually, I think this dog isn't ugly at all! He's made the news for looking exactly like another long coat Akita with sleepy eyes named Wasao.
☆ [video] The Arlington Rap - My friend sent me a link to this yesterday - hilarious! Dude raps about the "ghetto" city of Arlington, Virginia - an upper middle class suburb of D.C. My favorite part is the last bit, where he raps about meeting up at the Starbucks (or the Starbucks...)
☆ Unique Ice Cream Flavors - I'm still on a mission to try corn ice cream one day. *___* I don't see skirt steak ice cream (from a recent Iron Chef American episode) on this list...
good
Is it really Wednesday already?? Hard to believe. But I suppose the holiday gave us a delayed start, and now we already find ourselves mid-week. Hope everyone had a great weekend!
busy
Today was my friend's bachelorette party, and the first stop was at Rasika, a lovely Indian restaurant in downtown D.C. As is usually the case with large parties, it took forever and a day before service finally began, but once the food started coming, it was all quite heavenly. Unfortunately, I had skipped lunch today - which conversely led to less appetite by the time the late dinner was served. (I feel slightly cheated by this, and I totally need to go back some time soon to make up for it!) I loved what I did manage to eat, including my favorite dish - the chicken makhani, in all its buttery perfection. Also a highlight was Rasika's famous flash fried spinach, which never disappoints. queasy

Quick random update before work...

We're already well into May, and we're finally getting a good dose of sunshine hereabouts after a long several weeks of continuous rain. o___O;;; Obama and Biden's Burger Run - Now who would've known that the President and VP's visit to a burger joint would make international news?? I first found this story reported at the DCist blog. A typical news item to be found in a D.C. centric blog. But I later saw it on both CNN and BBC, complete with video of Pres & Veep ordering their food. This sort of thing makes me smile, as I'm a big foodie, but I also know that it's going to be even more impossible to get a table at the tiny burger joint now. And btw, Ray's Hell Burger does indeed serve up the best burger in town.
First 100 Days - Speaking of Obama, you Facebook politicos might get a kick out of this cute humor piece documenting Obama's first 100 days in office as a Facebook newsfeed.
Twilight...with Cheeseburgers [video] - I enjoyed Twilight the movie much more than I ever thought I would! Such beautiful people! Vampires! What's not to love? So was quite amused by this spoof that replaces Bella with a tempting, juicy cheeseburger.
May It Please the Court - The Supreme Court of the U.S. has been in the news with Souter's retirement, but this NY Times art blog post was actually done before that announcement, and gives spotlight to SCOTUS's only female justice, Ruth Bader Ginsburg. She actually spoke at the opening ceremony for my law school's new building, years ago. In the article here, she is asked, how it feels to be the only woman on the court, to which she answers, "Lonely."
Disney Star Wars Weekend - Awesome Star Wars themed posters featuring characters from the series in quite humorous situations. My favorite is the first one of Yoda at the baggage claim. XD

Here I am two weeks after getting back, and still poking through photos from my Japan trip. Actually, I had one of those "epic failures" in that department before I even left the country...I forgot my digital camera at home. I beat myself up about it all the way to Japan (the whole 14 hour flight, in between "Twilight" and some quirky variety show). I even considered buying a new digital camera there, but in the end, I relied on my trusty iPhone cam and hoped that my brother would take enough good pics on his cameras for the both of us.
energetic amusedmuscaevolitan, because he's my brother... Second would be mlliu - she and I have been friends since we were seven years old. mlliu had transferred to my elementary school when we were in 2nd grade, and I'm pretty sure the teachers ushered her over to me because we're both Asian! =D Funny enough, we've been BFF's ever since then. XD We used to write handwritten letters to each other back in the day ("Mail, it was called mail!"), and actually are trying to get back into that habit, after all these years.gekidasa.

I was checking around today to see if the title for Morikubo Showtaro's new single had been released yet, and stumbled upon the cover art. Isn't it pretty? ♥ The single will have three songs, "Parallel World," "Home Sweet Home", and "Never Surrender." He wrote the lyrics to all of them, and the music for the first two. It's scheduled for a May 13 release. I can't wait to hear it! o(^___^)o
