it's not much of a blog if one updates once every month.

sorry guys.

shall hopefully begin to be more diligent with lj during this summer.

[OH! Those who watch(ed) Pushing Daises, don't forget to watch the second to last episode EVER tonight!]

good day.

edit: lmfao. i said almost the exact same thing about being diligent last time I updated a month ago. Such poor vocabulary. tsk. tsk.

wow. 9weeks. last update 9 weeks ago! for a second I was gonna say that's the human gestation period. wtf.

that just goes to show. way way too much of my life is devoted to school at the moment. dang vertebrate biology.

I really hope everyone on the flist is doing very well. I'm pretty certain I'll be more diligent once summer vacation starts.

Oh man that song is annoying. The one where they keep yelling out "Have you heard the news flash?!"

Anyways, HI everybody. I cannot believe I have not updated since before this new semester started.

Let's see if I can do a super quick summary. Update? Or Summary. I think update is the better word...

--------
REAL LIFE:

01. So I'm semi-dorming now. IT is a lot easier not having to commute home every morning and night.
02. Classes I'm taking: Only four: Organic Chem + lab, Statistics, Spanish, and Vertebrate Biology.
03. Stat---bane of my existence. Anyone on the flist ever taken it and has any wise words of advice...?
04. omfg midyears are now. In like 5 days. Damn. Time is flying by man.

05. Happier things: Sister's baby, as in my niece, Jememah, is very much absolutely awesome. I miss seeing her, but when I do, it is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME.
06. SPRING BREAK IN 2 WEEKS YAY.
07. I really wish my uni had more days off than just a week off every like 6 weeks. What's up with that?
08. I bought a stuffed owl from a little boy on the Upper West Side who was selling it on the street, along with a bunch of other stuffed. Really cute owl. $2.00!!

--------
TV:

01. SHOWS LIKE LOST PUT EVERY OTHER SHOW TO SHAME. TO SHAME. If something like Lost doesn't get nominations and freaking House still gets nominated, or even worse, ohmygoodness, Grey's Anatomy... *shudders*
02. I also love Chuck. Very cute.
03. School doesn't really let me watch tv :(
--------

So how is everyone. I hope well. I'm pretty terrible, secretly lurking around people's journals and not commenting. I cannot believe I am up to the point where I actually procrastinate on livejournal as well. ON LIVEJOURNAL GUYS.

I just saw Painted Veil and I guess I can't really say how much I liked it without spoiling it, but it is so fantastic, so I'll try.

I always semi-loved Edward Norton and he was awesome in Hulk, and I always loved Naomi Watts because she is made of freaking awesome acting powers and beauty. And this movie was so spectacular.

I definitely recommend it to anyone who loves a good heart-wrenching/romantic story. I loved how you really got into the characters and cared about them, and the angst! Every scene is just so well acted. The entire movie seems like it has so little dialogue, and yet both of them do such a great job at portraying the characters. And the entire thing is so beautiful too! Not only the pretty landscapes, but also. Naomi Watts' face and clothes, and uhm Edward Norton's face and hair, and his clothes too I guess. Just such a beautiful movie UGH. I kept thinking about it after I saw it and had crazy dreams afterwards.

THE PRETTINESS:











------------------

UHM. I also saw:

TWILIGHT: I think it's ok for me to say LMAO considering the majority audience's age group. I was actually pretty impressed with this. 3.9/5 (Maybe if I see it in better quality, where his skin looks diamond-y as opposed to just plain sweaty, and I don't miss other such important details, I'll like it more...)

SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE : 5/5 STARS. Plus some more.

BURN AFTER READING: 3.5/5. I don't know. I thought I would like it more but I think I've seen a lot of crazy movies recently so this one didn't exactly blow my mind.

So clearly I'm a bit late for Christmas wishes, but nonetheless

HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE.

Hope those who celebrate Christmas had a good one!

So I don't celebrate Christmas but my birthday I do celebrate.

I got really awesome presents. I feel bad for getting so many things, and I tried this year to tell my friends to not get stuff but it really didn't work.

• Uhm. YES. This is so great because it's basically instant 35 minute entertainment whenever one wants.

• (yay full set now (S1-S3) of all the good eps since it all started to suck after S3). I miss good old House so this is awesome since I don't really watch it anymore so I can watch these whenever I wanna see Hugh Laurie. 

• iPod Touch case. Now I can actually begin to think about carrying it around.

Other non-photoable stuffs:
- comforter set!
- chapstick, nailpolish, earrings, bracelet
- money!

But yea. People are nice.

Alright so once again HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

And Happy New Year also! Yay 2009! :) Hope it brings great things for everyone.

Movie:
( no spoilers inside...but still )

Theater Experience:

THERE WAS THIS GROSS GROSS GROSS COUPLE IN FRONT OF ME I JUST WANTED TO KICK THEM OUT. I mean I don't think I'm being a prude when I say if you are so horny that you are huffing and puffing from making out so much, and you're like lying down on your girlfriend and she's touching you under your shirt and shit, you probably should've just stayed home. SERIOUSLY. PROPRIETY PEOPLE.

And like it was so hard to ignore them because they were so fucking loud, and they were talking also, and they were right in front of me, and this is the theater near my house so it's small, and so we couldn't change seats because it was crowded. Ugh. They were so gross. And the guy was asshole-ish because he was talking and he like offered the guy next to him popcorn, like wtf. He doesn't know you and probably doesn't even want to see your disgusting face. They sorta pissed me off. Clearly.

OH! And I heard the lady whisper to him "Good things come to those who wait" which freaked me out even more. They were so weird. She thinks she whispered, but she didn't really. It was before the movie was on and the theater was playing audio-less things so SHUT UP. OIDMFGBKSMNDZKRFNG. 

Seriously, I feel like they ruined kissing scenes in movies for me. Forever. Or at least for a while.

I've realized that I get very little done when I don't have an insane amount to do which is really bad.

I procrastinate to the point where I have a gazillion things to do within a few hours. And what's happening is Chemistry just does not get done like that, and instead of getting that adrenaline pumping or whatever, and getting my work done, I end up almost being on the verge of tears since Chemistry is a bitch.

So I need to improve those skills. Productivity skills I think they're called.

I started watching 30Rock. So smart, so funny.

Also, saw The Darjeeling Limited which was really sweet/great. I love Adrien Brody, Jason Schwartzman and Owen Wilson was pretty un-anonoying in it so YAY! Although, I was a bit confused. Who exactly was Bill Murray?

My next door and upstairs neighbors won't let me sleep during the weekends. I just want to smack them upside their freaking heads. Inconsiderates. I was going to add a noun afterwards but am trying to refrain from cursing.

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

THESE TRAILERS ALWAYS GET ME SO FREAKING EXCITED.


I HEARD THE FIGHT BACK YOU COWARD LINE!!!!!!!!





I don't know how well I've managed to embed it, so those interested:

I'm gonna hide my intense excitement for The Office

( under.the.cut )

I'm trying my best to take a really very positive attitude towards my studies. Positive as in you know "I like my professors, I like my subjects, and I can totally do well in 'em all" But chem pretty much destroys everything. But again. Not thinking that way.

ALSO PUSHING DAISIES HAS BEEN SO AWESOME LATELY. WHY IS LEE PACE/NED SO FUCKING CUTE I DO NOT UNDERSTAND.

Hah. This is so ridiculous.

My apartment is in sort of a quiet, old-ppl type neighborhood, and this like 'hip' couple moved in, or they might be roomates, and they had a really loud housewarming party a few days ago where thier guests were basically pouring out their windows (reminscent of dorm room 'parties') and right now they're blasting their music.

I wonder when someone will complain, or if they already have since the music was playing when I started typing this and has now stopped. I don't type that slow.
