  • Dying with Envy!

    I always do this to myself… check on Ticketmaster to see what concerts I can’t attend to. I blame it on Madonna this time~~ The headlines of Madonna breaking another record got me to go to the Live Nation website, and you could check up on the upcoming concerts they had, so it got me thinking what was on Ticketmaster. And BAM!

    Plaza Nightclub has 4 shows I want to attend~~~
    Tokyo Police Club – May 15 – $17.85
    Melanie C – May 17 – $35
    Los Campesinos! – June 1st – $15.50
    The Ting Tings – June 9 – $13.50

    and the Commodore Ballroom will have The Kooks on May 24 for only $18.50

    Sucks not to be there

  • The Dirt on Carly Pope

    I began watching a new old set of tapes (for archiving purposes), and I managed to go through 2 tapes… so that was like 9 hours… in 3 or 4, lol. Anyway, During the viewing, I saw a few clips where Carly Pope was featured, like 25 Hottest Stars Under 25 (by Teen People) which she shared with Brendan Fehr (from Rosswell). Were these two together??? And also, Carly was on 2000’s Nickelodeon’s Kid Choice Awards alongside Leslie Bibb, and some dude from Nickelodeon. Carly had crazy hair back then, lol… and she seemed very catty-friendly with the dude. I thought that was weird because I didn’t remember that at all.

    Anyhoo… I got melancholic about seeing her work on time, because she’s been doing a lot Canadian indie films that I don’t get to see. She made Young People Fucking in 2007, and according to someone on the boards it was gonna be a limited release on April 18 this year, but haven’t heard anything about it. I mean, it took me 3 years to get to watch Eighteen and Everyone… and when I was still in Vancouver I was lucky enough to watch Hamster Cage at the movies (Fifth Avenue Cinema ROCKS) and I even got to see Larry Kent (the director of the film) after the film… how awesome is that? Vancouver was great for Carly Pope viewing because I also got to watch a  rough cut version of Break a Leg Rosie, which was a surprise because I was not expecting to see Carly at all!

    Just a few days ago, I saw a re-run of Dirt on tv, and Carly was there playing Garbo. Hotness. I still have mixed feelings about the show, but being a big Greta Garbo fan… and a big Carly Pope fan, it all makes me giddy to the point of no return~~ And I think it’s fantastic that she’s taking classes, and continuing her studies… and according to her Wikipedia, she IS fluent in French, Italian and Spanish. Though, you never know… it might be the whole same issue there is with how many languages Natalie Portman is fluent in, LOL’

    Anyway, I leave you with a lengthy interview that Curve Magazine did to Carly on 2007, I’m guessing. Great read, WORD.

  • Must NOT Hydrate and Have Sex in California

    It seems water in California… or the US for that matter is ultra fertile, because everyone seems to be already preggers. It’s nuts! Planned pregnancies? Me thinks not so~ There are such things as condoms, and the pill… u know, loads of things to prevent you from accidental pregnancies. LOL’

  • Mycket Bra Svensk Film

    LOL’ I don’t even know if my title would be grammatically correct, but I just wanted to say that I’ve reached my 3-films mark. Yup, that’s right! I finally saw my third film in Swedish today. It all began when I saw Så Som i Himmelen, which is now officially my first Svensk Film… then, also on Cinemax, I saw Den Osynlige – which sadly has already been Americanized. And today I saw Mitt Liv Som Hund, which was fantastic!

    So can anyone recommend other Swedish films I could watch? Swedish film and international title on the comments would be appreciated! It’s most likely that Julyssa will comment, but others are welcomed to do it too! xD

  • Oxymoron MusicPass

    How thick can an industry get?

    I got a bunch of e-mails promoting the new MusicPass idea, which brought a very loud “whose brilliant idea was it? No, like… really.”

    Dear, Sony.
    The idea of music download is that you don’t need to go to a retailer to pick up a copy of an album, and you don’t even have to wait for the retailer to open in the morning.

    Well, considering I do most of my digital music shopping at 4 a.m. ~~~~ xP

  • Weird Dreams

    So had weird dreams once again. Does anyone know what this sequence means?

    concert, music, loads of people, crowd, political riot, policemen, arrested, and meeting the musician

    ha! yeah, one of Amy’s crazy dreams…

  • In This House, We Hate Vista

    It’s official! My mom just bought herself a new computer, a HP in fact… and HP sucks. Always has sucked, and still sucks after devouring Compaq. Those will be 6hrs of my life that I will never get back… and what did I do? I installed an antivirus, a firewall, Firefox and Open Office. Yeh, that’s it. In 6 fucking long hours… because had to look for a driver for the printer, because Vista sucks balls. Still can’t make the stupid scanner work, because it’s way older than my printer, which I bought this year – my scanner is at least 5 years. But Windows Vista is so stupid that nothing is compatible, and you gotta make sure everything says “Vista Compatible” otherwise, you’re just asking for trouble.

    And because HP is idiotic, they sell a 1GB desktop that runs Vista when its so un-fucking-believably slow.  How in the name of whoever’s-your-god did Microsoft come up with an OS that works like a Mac OS that uses double the RAM? I’m sensing an increase on Dell computers and Linux.

  • Ha! Adrenaline After Spears Pregnant Shock

    xD

    I was ready to go to bed, when I decided to check imdb for something I can’t even remember now. I had promised myself I would cut down on gossip, but it’s impossible… Especially when you read headlines like Younger Spears Pregnant.

    This will be the topic to talk about on MSN. Lol’ Just like Britney was MSN talk during the VMA.

    To read all the articles, just check all gossip sites… they are bound to have countless posts on it already. Perez Hilton, Hate to love that… can’t stand his site, but it’s guaranteed  to post fast. – Fave site, Lainey’s Gossip… she will probably have something on it by noon, with all the Pacific Time thing being 3hrs behind…

    Must get rid of this small adrenaline rush now.
