  • I’m Bouncing off the Walls Again~~

    Woh~~~oh~~~!!

    Freaking bouncers… *note to self* always kick around to get a photographing wristband so bouncers don’t bug. I went to shoot Brett Anderson last night, and well – I actually had never heard of him before I heard he was coming over.

    It was pretty good… though I liked the guitarist better. LOL – He was a great subject tonight, and his shots are some of my favorite of the night… which is running long. I really need to go to sleep, but I wanted to post the set =D

    I’m sorry I couldn’t get a clear shot of the drummer… no lights pointing at him whatsoever!

    and~~~ I dunno why I like this shot so much. xD

  • Damn it! Damn it to hell!

    Who would hack the portfolio of a lame freelancer??? Really.

    Any self-respecting hacker would go on and hack Twitter to frak everyone up! Make all the celebrities say eevn more stupid things, I would get that… I would get hacking Disney, or any important website. Hack the Obama sites – but why would they hack me??? I mean, who am I?

    Heck! Even hacking a fansite makes more sense, after all… they get a couple hundred thousands visits a day – that makes sense, their “look at me, look at me” attempts wouldn’t be in vain. But my portfolio? Do you really have that much time to just have fun hacking into a poor freelance’s portfolio? Do you get thrills from deleting an index page? Do you even know me? Ugh, completely utter waste of time… wasted my afternoon.


  • You know you’re a cinephile when…

    … you realize you spend all your time watching movies in your room with the lights off, while ignoring any form of communication, including real people.

    You’re tears well up and hear heart jumps into your throat when you walk into a store with more than a hundred dollars ear marked for Criterion.

    90% of your friends haven’t even heard of any of the films on your top ten, aside from you ranting about them. – Except the cool ones, of course ;P

    you realize you like fictional people more than real ones.

    everything in the world is seen as a film to you.

    You spend more time on a certain film site any given day than you do talking to any member of your family.

    you lecture people on what to watch and what not to. –  Of course!

    you tell people about the inner working of film and they look at you like your a circus performer. With awe and confusion… and keep talking of how hot such and such looked.

    You start to notice the names of directors… – You are lost. xD – *sighs* ever since I was a kid, even with music videos. what can you do, eh?

    you come off like a pretentious jackass, even though you aren’t. when the subject of favorite films comes up.

    You use your lunch break to buy movies instead of actually eating. – Oh man, I used to be that person when I began living alone hahaha.

    you go to browse DVDs on a weekend night, and spent over 1hr just browsing through them even though you’re only picking three or four… a week. LOL – BAWWW I miss my friends.

    the numbers of movies you own equals or surpasses the number of movies your entire other five family members own (combined). – SNAP! Guilty! I probably can put my whole family and friends “collections” and I would still have more.

    you want to shoot yourself because you accidentally purchased a “full screen” version. DOH!

    you would rather spend the evening sitting in front of the big screen with a good DVD than go out dancing with the significant other.

    someone asks you what would you do if you had a million dollars, and you say “Buy every Criterion DVD” and an old drive-in theater to fix up and show nothing but the great films. – though I also want this sweet bike, but it turns out the bike is from a film… so~~~

    your DVD collection suddenly has become too large for your set of shelves… – seriously~~~

    everything on your Birthday list is a movie, or movie soundtracks~~~

    LOL, many more reasons over at TheAuteurs.com! Come and join me =D


  • Yu doesn’t drink…

    but plays a great drunk. LOL – Okay, maybe she does a little if I read right the interview aoinohoho sent me.

    Actually, this clip I found made me want to watch Tiger & Dragon. xD

    should I?


  • Happy Portmania!!

    LOL

    Ever since I began visiting NP.com, if calculations aren’t all that bad… in 2001 – well, I had been an avid Portmaniac~~~ – I actually look forward to Portmania due to Sanjiro’s crazy ramblings. Why? Well, nothing beats his ramblings on Charlie the NatDog *RIP* ~~~ But it’s always fun to read his Natalie Portman Facts and read his warnings.

    First thing is first.

    this PORTMANIA we are going to Celebrate Natalie’s Favorite things. and the first on this long list (hopefully as high as a week’s worth) is….

    DOGS.

    and no one better represents the DOG than…

    CHARLIE the NATDOG.

    So Happy Bday, Natalie! xD – or you know, if the rumors of you speaking a bit of Japanese are true~~~ o-tanjoubi omedetto gozaimasu!!!

    And happy bday to Johnny too. xD


  • Watched this May’09! and some June~

    Didn’t watch too many films either… I did re-watch some though, with subs or just plain re-watching. I still haven’t made it to 20 films released in 2009 though… I’m getting worried how my Experiment Awards will do, if I can’t even made it to my own voting rules. LOL

  • May 2009 Music!

    *legasp!*

    I didn’t blog for two days!!! My perfect two-month-everyday posting record is over~

    T.T – and…

    Didn’t really listened to much music either~~~ just a few couple albums that just came out.

    (more…)


  • Keeping my iTunes in Order

    I can’t remember the last time I did a music backup, and that’s a bit worrying… but not as worrying as the last time I made a backup of everything else. That’s another scary subject. I’m here to show you how neat is my iTunes library~~~

    iTunes Library - June05 '09

    See? Neat~~~ almost everything with a cover, but that’s because I ripped that from a YouTube video, which is lame… but I couldn’t find a proper mp3 of Sedated by the Young @ Heart Chorus. Do you know where can I get it?

    Then… circled albums are the ones I don’t own, and want to buy physically… the ones marked with a “2” means I would be thinking of getting them physically as well. I really, really have fallen in love with the Hana & Alice OST, it goes with liking the film more and more.

    The rest, as you can see is filled with Chris Lee, Coeur de Pirate, David Tao, Dirty Projectors, Green Day, The Sounds, St. Vincent, La Patere Rose etc etc… Shiina Ringo, Seo Taiji. When is Seo Taiji’s 8th album coming out??? I’ve been waiting for it since October last year – I remember because I was complaning too many albums coming on Oct/Nov.


  • L Magazine: Yu Aoi and Stationery

    To make up for the lame previous post, I found this Yu Aoi cover for L Magazine for January 2009.

    Yu Aoi - L Magazine - Cover

    Crap, she does look young there. I hate her. *laughs*

  • Last Month’s Update~

    Well, it’s half of 2009 already! CRAP!

    Last month I did a 50-post month! One up from the record of 49, LOL.

    It’s begun to be a bit chilly on this side of the world, and well… let’s say it’s hard to get out of a warm cozy bed. Also, I will be doing a bit more photographing *crosses fingers* from this point forward. I’m excited about that~

    Also, I got bored of my French. *sighs* Marion should really come up with a new French movie, LOL. How do I get out of this business? Or someone please! Begin commenting in some French so I can get into it again…

    Also, I still need money. LOL – Oh shit, and I should really call Canada Trust to figure out the business with my credit card. *sighs* things are supposed to be easy when getting your credit card, why does snail mail suck so much?

    Also, YAM 004 – it’s coming in some short two-weeks time give or take. This one’s been a tough issue, I need a bump of energy on that too. YAM cannot DIE in just 4 issues. I will make it happen~~~ I just need something to get me by until next award season.
