As a happy gift! I made a wallpaper 1680×1050 with a scan of Juri on Kaze to Rock. Again, credit to Juri’s LJ Community… visit it for everything Juri.
I got a little help for the “Best Kisses” list which I haven’t worked on in… a year? They reminded me of Meet Joe Black. I remember the day I saw Meet Joe Black – I was in high school, and had gotten terribly sick, so I rented a couple of films. I always thought I had fallen asleep in the middle of the film due to my illness, years later I found out that I always dozed off in the same part~~ LOL However, it IS an interesting film…
Anyway, Meet Joe Black is the HOTTEST I’ve seen Brad Pitt, plus the peanut butter scene… peanut butter will never be the same after this film. But the peanut butter has nothing to do with this Best Kiss.
Brad Pitt and Claire Forlani kiss… what? Twice? But that scene… that LONG scene of them just sort of hovering around each other, then giving a little kiss, and Forlani taking his shirt off to ‘make love’ to Death. And Death is a virgin… and there’s dramatic music~~ and nice bright light.
Thanks to BradFans.Net for the captures. Some simple graphics after the break…

First post of the year!! How sad is this? 3am, and me is blogging. I’m actually sleepy… full of food and sleepy, so I think I did okay.
Yay! Those are fireworks at Amy’s family gathering. Sadly, it’s probably the last of the fireworks in here as they’re moving the gas tanks around. So… just like John Hammond in Jurassic Park, my uncle didn’t spare no expenses~~~ xD
Took a few shots of that with the tripod, which I almost never use… so I had fun crouching and being all uncomfortable with it to get some photos. I was also starving, coz we didn’t eat until 11pm or so which is uber late… considering we used to eat at 8pm on previous years. LOL’ But we had yummy food, and loads of leftovers which I will probably be eating during the course of lunch, dinner, lunch hahaha.
Anyway… if you wanna check out some of the photos -> lookie here.
, but need to share this. LOL’
Thank you, Nate… for poking my eyes on the voodoo dolls you’ve got stash away. Yes, we’ve done YAM. Please, help yourself to some YAM for Xmas over here…
Hope you enjoy.
Well, just finished reading Toda Mafalda by Quino, which my mom owned but we never bother to finish reading. I only ever read Mafalda on the single strips that are featured on the newspaper, so it was a fun delight to read it all in one go! ^^
Some of the strips are far more fun than others, but nonetheless I enjoyed reading the whole thing as a sequence. I love that while going from vignette to vignette, I could picture friends and members of my family being a little Mafalda inside, as well as a little Manolito, a Susanita, little Felipe… we all have a little Mafalda character inside xD
Though… a big THOUGH – I found the paragraphed text on the history of Mafalda, and other extra info VERY hard to read because of layout, and size of font and amount of info displayed in one page… that’s perhaps the biggest NO in the book. However, doesn’t make it unreadable… if you enjoy Mafalda on your newspaper, you’ll probably enjoy it here as well.
So despite having my economics like my math results when I spent math class doodling…
I want these… xD
A Nikon D60
What I do want is a new memory card, because mine are pretty small (256Mb, by 3 cards, and one 128Mb) – Ha! I know… I should be pretty ashamed of myself. Not practical at all~~~ So now I’ve been eyeing the SanDisk 8 GB Extreme III
And a Nikon Lens Pen Cleaning System
… what am I watching this TV fall season? It’s TV talk!! I went through 2 seasons of Dexter last month in a whim… and I just recently finished watching season 4 of Weeds, which I wasn’t so happy with, even though I heart Mary-Louise Parker. But what is moi watching now?
Well since TV…. here isnt’t er… very prompt with seasons – roughly waiting an average of 3 months for popular shows, and more… even a whole year – I’ve got to find other ways to watch, because I don’t like waiting.
Amy WANTS. xD
You know, ever since I was little, my mom used to say she will win the lottery. I remember she asked me what I would want when she won, and I told her “A bike.” – LOL, Am now 22, and I still haven’t gotten my bike… but I found a pretty nifty choice of bike, if my mom ever decides to win the lottery~~
I was watching Cha no Aji (The Taste of Tea), and fell in love with the bike there. With a little googling about the net, I found what I was looking for~ Tartaruga-ew.com!
Apparently the bike in the film is the Tartaruga Folding Bike v. 1.5 – Priced *only* at ¥139,650 – or just a little bit more than $1300USD (duh!) ~~ But apparently there’s a Tartaruga Folding Bike v. 1.55 ~
But she made me cry. LOL’ What started as a funny (almost goofy) ride about yummy-looking food from Isshouan, ended up as something that made me cry xD No? Weren’t the last two episodes of Osen so nostalgic?
Maybe it is because my family owns a restaurant as well… and I’m so not-very-much like Osen-san T-T Sadness, NE?
But I do! I do appreciate GOOD food! I appreciate good everything… taking the time to do something~ I do with design… I may not be the Osen-san of design, but I worry for it… and am scared of ‘the times’.
Because now I have to compete with $100 websites, and have to convince and fight for a client that websites are only for them. Okay, I may not call a button “Button-san,” and I certainly can’t drink as much Sake as Osen… and oh yeah, did I mention I can’t cook to save my life? LOL’ But I treat each of my projects like an Isshouan dish~ With time, and dedication.
In the end, is all about learning… connecting, and passing it on. Please, don’t let good things go by just because other things seem more convenient. Hontou onegai shimasu. *bows*
I’ve got a 4th generation iPod… yes, my iPod is 4 years… since the day I bought it on my trip to Hong Kong back in September 2004. Yes, my iPod has many scratches on the tiny 1.5 inches one-color screen. LOL I cannot watch videos, it doesn’t allow photos… and it’s only 20Gb. But it’s more than I could ask for…
Yesterday, my iPod suffered an accident, and it’s been on the border of a permanent coma. Connected through the USB cable to my Frankestein PC desktop, I tripped over the cable and it fell on the hard cold floor. I had dropped my iPod before, and apparently… it’s been taking its toll.
One of the problems that began happening is that Windows XP wasn’t recognizing the iPod, iTunes crashed… and I ended up restarting my computer more than a few times before I decided to disconnect it all. Once again, I disconnected all and restarted the system as I connected my iPod directly to the electrical outlet with the firewire.
It seemed to work that way, and I hadn’t lose any of the 3000+ songs I’ve got in it… over 14Gb of music. When I woke up today, everything seemed to work fine, and I set up the music that I wanted to listen while doing some studying, when all of a sudden everything stopped playing. Most of the songs I tried playing showed that little exclamation (!) sign when iTunes can’t find the original file.
After that, Windows and iTunes began acting weird again, and it did so in another computer. After a few more restarts, I plugged the iPod to the electrical outlet once again, and let it rest there for a while.
iPod is working once again… and songs that showed up as missing are playing fine.
My faithful 4-year-old iPod that accompanied me through so many sleepless school days during finals, during so many hours on a plane… and terrible endless waits in airports around the world. ~~~ There won’t be a replacement for my 4th generation iPod, just like there’s no replacement for my worn-out Adidas, which I bought in 2001 and have carried with me around the world… endured terrible rain, mud, moss, extremely long walks.
