Presentation Woes...Again!

Music: Kanye West - Love Lockdown


Call us overly enthusiastic, or whatever you like, but guess what - we made a presentation fashion faux pas again. Oh, I'm so proud of myself.

Remember back in June? Suppose to dress formal, we turned up in casual clothing. Well well. It's the opposite this time around.

We were all dressed up when we didn't have to! You see, there are 12 groups presenting, the first 6 groups finished presenting today and THEY were the ones who had to dress formal.

...and no we were not one of the first 6 groups. We will be presenting tomorrow...as the TWELFTH GROUP.

Get the picture now? First six groups, formal. The next six groups, casual.

......


Go ahead and laugh at us :(

Sigh. Fools we are, indeed. Anyway, wish us luck with the presentation tomorrow.

One More Week

Music: Keane - You Haven't Told Me Anything


There ya go, just changed my playlist. No more depressing, emo songs, it's all cheerful and bouncy now (okay the 'depressing' one is still in the playlist actually but it's now surrounded by more cheery stuff).

Anyway, one more week to what? One more week till freedom! For the rest of the year! Just three days of exams from next Wed to Fri, and then it'll be the end of my first year in INTI.

After that, three - four months of rotting. Somehow...I'm not really looking forward to that though. Imagine, three months of doing nothing - it's scarily boring! Guess I'll have to get a job, or take some classes or something.

Btw, I'm getting kinda addicted to Britney's 'Womanizer'. Don't ask me why, it's just so catchy!

(Kanye West loves Keane O.o How awesome (and weird) is that? I love the song Love Lockdown by Kanye anyway lol)

An Ode and a Rainbow

Music: Travis - Song to Self


Ode to J. Smith

Ode to J.SmithTravis is back with a new album, released around two weeks ago. I downloaded it the moment it was released but put off listening to it until now. And I have to say, Ode to J. Smith is definitely one of the better albums released this year. Yes, it trumps both Viva La Vida and Perfect Symmetry! And let's just say I wasn't really a big fan of Travis before this. (I'll have to thank Sharyl for reviving my interest in Travis lol)

It's quite different from their last album, a lot more rockier. No more Coldplay or Keane comparisons for now, thank God. If you're looking for another 'Closer', you'll be quite disappointed. But then again, this album is so much better than 'The Boy With No Name'. (8.5/10)

Favourites: Chinese Blues, Something Anything, Friends, Song to Self, Broken Mirror & Before You Were Young. ♥

In Rainbows

In Rainbows Okay this was released last year, however I had only listened to it not too long ago. Wasn't really a big fan of Radiohead either, but I thought I'd give this album a try. In Rainbows is pretty good actually, much better than half of the stuff I usually listen to. I prefer their older songs though. Quirkier. Still, it's a great album so, (8.5/10) ♠

Favourites: House of Cards, Weird Fishes/Arpeggio, Bodysnatchers.

~.~


I finally watched Hakushaku to Yousei, or Earl and Fairy last night. The one with the Tamaki lookalike.

I love the art and the animation, it's good but the story's a bit...eh. Fairy doctors? Earl of Blue Something Something? It sounds like Susanna Clarke's Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell! And it's suppose to be a shoujo anime. Not a fan of that. Will I continue watching this? I guess. It could get more interesting. P.S: Edgar really does look like Tamaki!

P.S: Wooohoooo just got my own original copy of Perfect Symmetry! *twirls*

I'm Tired. Really.

Music: Keane - My Shadow


- Keane Lyrics


I am so obsessed with this song, I tell you. I've been listening to it all day long, and I'm still not bored of it. Great song. Stay a little longer here, and listen to it.

Anyway, I just wanna to blog a bit before the day ends.

There's a moral test tomorrow, and I'm still kinda unprepared. The Marketing quiz today sucked. Only got 27/50. And those were just true/false questions! I know I didn't really study for it but still....true/false! How unlucky can I be? (Apparently, very!)

Sigh. I hope my Marketing assignments turn out okay. Otherwise I'll have to like, study three times harder for my finals! *hyperventilates*

Well, I should get back to studying for Moral now.

Moral in less than 24 hours. Wish me luck, thanks!

Tales of the Abyss Update

At the rate I'm going, I guess I'll be blogging about every single episode of Tales of the Abyss. LOL. Yes, I am that obsessed!

Anyway. Just watched it. Ep 3 is a lot more interesting than the previous two episodes. More development of Jade, didn't see much of Anise, Luke's as annoying as ever, Guy reappears and Tear rocks! :P

Also, the introduction of the God-Generals. Finally, the other teenage red-head appears (I'm itching to mention his name but eh, spoilers). Alas I can say, so far so good. Keep up the good work Sunrise, please don't ruin TOTA for us fans k?

There is something that bothers me though. Usually, fans of a game would want the anime to follow the game quite closely. HOWEVER...I think Sunrise is taking it a bit too far. Almost every little detail from the game is included in the freaking show! Right down to that conversation about Luke with Tear and Anise. And they didn't even try rephrase it or something! Wtf. I guess that was quite necessary to reveal Mieu's gender though.

But that was not the only part! Too much detail on their escape from the Tartarus. Fighting the ligers. Fighting the soldiers. Luke's reluctance to kill humans.

At the rate they're going, it's gonna take a lot more than 26 episodes to wrap up the whole thing. Sigh.

One more thing...*cough* ION = BLACK STAR FROM SOUL EATER??? OMFG! O.O

It's Dance Season People!

Music: Keane - My Shadow


Oh yes, dance season.

Everyone is churning out dancey music, for some very odd reason.

But WHY? Britney's doing it, Christina and Hilary too, and even Keane for heaven's sake. KEANE! (OK that's more of disco 80s pop thingy but still...disco = dance!) Major wtf season.

Dance music is all the rage now.

Here, have a look at Britney's new video:



She's naked guys! What fun. It's Toxic Part II. On the bright side, I'm glad she's finally back in the business, looking quite healthy.

~.~.~

I finally watched the first episode of Gundam 00 after one week. Bahahaha am I slow or what?

Unfortunately I have absolutely no idea what's happening in the show. Didn't even recognize Saji. At least Setsuna and Tieria looks great. Poor Allelujah, all tied up. GO RESCUE the poor fellow guys!

Book-Aholic

Music: Yui - Summer Song



Within two weeks, I bought...



Bahahahaha.

Five books in (less than actually) two weeks!

Well I only bought Gossip Girls because of the 3 for 2 thingy. Needed The Twilight Watch to complete my collection.

(Why am I such a sucker for trilogies???)

Bwahahahahahahahahaha!!


Edit:
Anyway, I just watched the 2nd episode of TOTA. So far so mediocre lol.
The only thing interesting for now is the interaction between Luke, Tear and Mieu.
And....ANISE IS ANNOYING! And what's with the freaking spoilers? Jade used Indignation waaaaay too soon >.< That is his ultimate attack and all, and he uses it in the first battle? Wrong move, Sunrise. Wrong move.

Will finally watch Gundam 00 tomorrow. Tieria Erde, hereeeeee I come!
