come crush me now

Today … I did a lot of chores and sliced and coded and stuff this layout. Yeah. Different style. Like? I do. For now. ^^;; I don’t know about in a few days …

Oh yeah. Daughter Darling. *thumbs up* Can’t wait. :D Also Michelle Branch has a new album coming out. And I’m getting interested in Rooney. And I adore Yo La Tengo’s “Little Eyes” and have decided to buy as many of their albums as I can.

everything will be just fine

I’m trying to write more in here. I think I don’t write in here because I don’t like the cgi files building up on my site. ^.^;;;

I downloaded a Taipei game. Wheee. ^-^ I haven’t played since we got rid of that IBM … (which Grandpa bought, which we got in like 1990, which cost $5,000 o.O which had Windows 3.1) And I have to say … WAS THAT GAME ALWAYS THIS HARD???? T-T I’ve played two games … and I haven’t won either of them. u.u;;

“Nothing’s so loud as hearing when we lie. Truth is not kind. And you’ve said neither am I.” — Toad the Wet Sprocket

Wow, that song is rather nice… Never heard the beginning before.

the evening speaks, I feel it say…
nothing’s so cold
as closing the heart when all we need
is to free the soul
but we wouldn’t be that brave I know

But I don’t like the chorus much. “ALL I want is to FEEL this way, to BE this close, to FEEL the same.” O_o

Disney; Lily songs

Walt Disney is scaaary. ;-; He had a locomotive set up around his house and one time when he was getting some ideas about Disneyland (so the book says), he jumped the tracks and crashed into the living room of his house. O_< His wife was pissed. :b Then another time he … too tired to type it out.

Is smartness a gene? … I think I’ve read too many Ralph Wiggum quotes today.

“She’s touching my special area!” “My cat’s breath smells like cat food.” “I bent my wookie.” “The doctor told me I wouldn’t have so many nosebleeds if I just kept my finger out of there.”

Ever wish you could close your eyes and just curl up inside a song? These Lily Chou-Chou songs make me feel like that. It’s odd. I still love that movie. Well maybe not love. But … o_o! Yeah. I wanna see Battle Royale. Some site said there’s a Battle Royale II in production. O.o Well anyway. I guess I’d have to buy the movie. ‘Cause how many video rental stores have a modern disturbing Japanese film on their shelves?

-.- And apparently … I am not getting it. $37 minimum. Nuh-uh. I don’t care if people say AALCC is a copy. I ain’t paying that much. …

I keep picturing the people in AALCC listening to Lily. ^^;;; Woooow, niice. *sigh* Now Battle Royale is buggin’ me like heck. -_- Oi. I owe Mommy $25 for the Ai Yazawa artbook. Don’t know why I bought it. The scanner’s not good at all. Well, it’s adequate for normal scanning. But not scanning art and stuff. Yuck. Also Mommy wants a legal size scanner. XP W00t! Support my side! Um. But I know nothing about scanners.

“Ai no jikken” whatever jikken means. Experiment. Ah. O_o *ahem* Remind me to translate Lily Chou-Chou lyrics.

Pardon my … oddities, but in one song, it sounds like she sings “death like life.” ^^; I don’t have the lyrics for all 9 songs, so i don’t know.

I also want the rest of Paradise Kiss. $30. Fun.

SLD, Cardigans, and Riri Shushu

Wooow … I guess I just don’t feel like talking on and on. ^.^ Haven’t written that much in lj or dland or a secret log I started up recently either. o.o

Ah well. Let’s see what I can talk about. I don’t know. Oh. My group’s sld on Thursday rocked! XD (SLD = Student-Led Discussion) We barely said anything! The discussion just jumped up and ran. XDDD The prof: “There were times when barely anyone talked, and now everyone is talking all at once … couldn’t we have a happy medium where everyone talks … but not all at once?” Ahhh!! Sho cool! :D:D

And I got The Cardigans’ new album, Long Gone Before Daylight. *dances all over the room* It’s wonderful! They’ve matured nicely. Haha. It’s not like any of their other albums. It is rather folksy, like someone said on the forum. But not too bad, I don’t think. Then again, Daddy was tapping his foot to the music, so there’s gotta be something wrong there. :b (Daddy likes country and stuff.) I think I like the songs Communication and And Then You Kissed Me the most (although ATYKM is about an abusive relationship …).

I also got All About Lily Chou-Chou. YAYAYAYAY!!! :D Such a gooood movie!! ^___^ Also a very bad movie. o_o Should be rated R. I didn’t know that when I first started watching. ^.^ I assumed it was PG-13 or something. Japan is hooorrible now! ;_; Well, I can’t assume it’s like that everywhere, right? *hopes and prays*

It was funny, at the beginning, Yuichi was caught stealing Lily Chou-Chou’s newest album, and when his mom came into the office to talk to the teacher who fixed the problem (o_o that was weird, too) and another teacher and was told that Yuichi was stealing, she just jumped up and started beating him with her purse. O_O I thought that was funneee! ^.^;;;

Then Mommy started explaining to me, even though I knew this (it was why I started laughing ^_^;;;), that stealing is horrible, horrible, and that Yuichi is now DIRT because of that. Lower than dirt, if that’s possible. And because he’s dirt, his mom is dirt, because she’s related to him, she brought him up, she’s lived with him, etc. etc., she hasn’t brought him up to STEAL. And now their neighbors will ostracize them and everything. Japan is weird. I love it. Then the other teacher, after he calmed her down, said it wasn’t such a big thing, a lot of kids steal. o.o;

I <3 Yuichi and Hoshino and Tsuda and Kuno. ^____^ *sniffle* Everyone see the movie. Unless you’re under 17. ._.;

Ah. I also got all the Lily Chou-Chou songs in mp3 format. XDDD Although I wish I could buy the CD. :( Guess I’ll just burn my own …

nooo, all Cardigans songs are coool

T-T I was looking at the cardigans.com forum, and a topic is there about people’s least favorite Cardigans song. Noooo, they’re allll wonderful!! ;_;
