  • Sunny Day with the Family~

    … and talking about tonight’s food. Because it’s still Chinese New Year, and still I haven’t had dinner. xD

    You know, I almost never blog personal life in this blog anymore. And I actually reconsidered posting these photos that I’m about to post after the break.

    Today was a surprisingly nice~ went to Cieneguilla because cousin wanted to, so we all went. I was listening to Miyavi, while he drove… and I considered watching Chiyo (the first ever short film I’ve bought on iTunes) but turns out the widescreen doesn’t translate to my iPod, so it was pretty cropped. Especially during the introduction, all the text on the borders couldn’t be read.

    ANYWAY! We arrived early, and ordered food early because we always starve to death wherever we go~ and luckily we ordered early because the food took forever to get made, and it was ‘ok’ xD – I know I said it was surprisingly nice, and my re-telling doesn’t sound like it…

  • Happy Chinese New Year – Kong Hee Fatt Choy!

    Happy Earth Ox Year!!!

    I tend to say I’m an Oxger, well… because people always used to say “1986 – Tiger” so I always thought I was a tiger until the day I was writing a small write-up on it, and went “wha? WAIT! wait a minute… I’m not a tiger?”

    And with the couple of years of reading, I always noticed I’ve got both of their traits. So I decided… Amy’s an Oxger xD

    Other cool Oxes? Well, Yu’s an Ox – It’s Yu’s year!!

    I know not to trust everything I read online, but Ox year is supposed to be good for Oxes (Yay for Yu, Yay for me) – but then again, if the horoscope I read is right… I rather it NOT be. It’s a pretty horrible year for BOTH my parents who are Monkey and Horse. So I’d rather they have a better year, than me having an extraordinary year. I’m happy with the ordinary, if it means better for other people.

  • Critics’ Choice Awards 2008 Winners

    BIG win for Anne Hathaway!! ~~ and Meryl Streep. I mean, not such a big win for Meryl ‘coz she’s got a gazillion awards, but it was BIG for Anne… and her speech, I liked that it was mostly not about her. LOL’ And she was emotional… major points for an Oscar win. An Oscar win should bring her to tears… no? Oscar loves that, right? Emotional Best Actress…

    I got 12/16, pretty amazing~~ Slumdog Millionaire won BIG too., including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Writing, Best Young Actor, and Best Composer (aka, Best Score). Not sure about the score win, but oh well. Also… BIG loss for Benjamin Button.

    Other winners… Milk for Best Ensemble and Best Actor, The Dark Knight for Best Supporting Actor, Best Action Movie.  And Kate Winslet for The Reader, which I haven’t seen yet~~ For the winners, go here.


  • Jodelle Ferland’s Wallpapers

    I felt inspired, I had these in my computer for a while and finally decided to do something with them. I also recently found out that Jodelle-Ferland.net (thank you for the photos) had a link to Jodelle’s ‘official’ blog… which happens to be a wordpress blog. Major cool points for that, ‘coz she could’ve gotten one for Blogger, or *le gasp* LiveJournal? LOL’

    Two 1680×1050 wallpapers after the break.

  • Just to Spite You~~

    LOL, Canadian Government, xD

    Four months ago (maybe five) I had a ticket to see BackStreet Boys at GM Place in Vancouver, but Canada didn’t let me in even though my friend was getting married. So I missed her wedding, missed seeing my friends and I missed BSB. Damn you, Canada.

    Anyhoo, later I find that BSB is coming here. Crappy end of the deal? “Mundo Pop” is not a BSB show. CRAPPY. Also in the show is Belanova, which is pretty bleh, and Adammo (??) Who the frak. Oh, yeah~ and tickets are pricey. And there are a LOT of sections. You know, normally should be 2 zones… General and VIP, but NO! We take zones to another whole new level~~~ First, we took it to Super VIP. Yeah, there’s a Super Zone, but that’s not it! Take this concert as an example… there’s General, Preferencial, VIP… Super VIP… Kandavu (the company organizing the concert), and then there’s BSB. Normally, I would’ve chucked the price of the ticket~ Like I did Bjork. xD

    I was about to buy a BSB zone, but let’s face it… ++$100 for a ticket is not exactly MY thing. said the one who wouldn’t chuck $60 to see Dixie Chicks. LOL’ – I still buy cds, so I still give away my money. There should be a deal, right? Show receipt of a recent (name of the tour) album and get a discount. xD

    BSB en Lima Ticket

    Also, Belanova doesn’t seem to fit with BSB… just saying. But I’ve got an open mind, I will let both groups try to impress me. But yeah… I’m paying this just to spite Canadian Gov. LOL otherwise I wouldn’t have chucked that money xD


  • Juri Does Planetarium

    Over at Juri’s LJ Community, they posted the item~~~

  • Meet Joe Black

    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…
