How is everyone? I miss LJ. :( EXAMS SUCK. OR I SUCK AT EXAMS. OR BOTH. :(

This post is mainly TV + movies that saved my sanity the past couple of weeks. YAY! I had an epiphany, a few days ago, and in anticipation for the new TV season I turned to British comedy. And that was, like, the best decision ever, because I started watching BLACK BOOKS. ( Read more... )

Tonight I turned on the TV, and Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers was on.

I may or may not have mentioned this before, but I’m a huge fan of Lord of the Rings. And The Two Towers is my favorite film out of the trilogy.

( Shall I describe it to you, or would you like me to find you a box? )

So apparently, today Warner Brothers decided to be a party pooper and screw the HP fans over, by delaying the release of Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince by NINE MONTHS. That's right, they decided that November 2008 wasn't a good enough date for them, and moved it to July 17, 2009.  WHAT THE HELL.

I guess that explains the lack of trailer/ ( Read more... )

01. Wow, I've been sleeping a LOT lately. And I don't do that, usually. But today I woke up after 11 hours of sleep, and I still couldn't get out of bed. Oh summer, how you have ruined me.

Some random stuff about movies:

01. The Dark Knight continues to kick ass and take names! It made 18 million out of midnight screenings in the US only, and now they're thinking it could break the $150 weekend gross record set by Spiderman 3 (which totally didn't deserve it btw. Worst film of the trilogy). Meanwhile, over at IMDB, crazy fanboys and ( Read more... )

01. Exams are over. They're over! OOOOOOOOOOVEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Today I took my last final for this year. Come September, I'll have the chance to take the finals I have skipped so far, and there'll be plenty of time to celebrate. But for now... Summertime, here I come! :)))

02. After my last exam was over, my friends and I went to watch ( Read more... )

01. Hellooooo to all my new friends! Make yourselves at home, grab some cookies. :)

02. I finally changed my layout, after months of being too bored to look for a new one. And I really like it!  I also re-did my profile... It was high time for a change.

03. I went to the movies tonight and watched The Happening, by M. Night Shyamalan. Um. It was a ( Read more... )

Because I'm in a movies mood, and lists/memes are always fun (at least when you're bored), here are the moives I've seen from the top 250 of imdb.com. Some of the conclusions drawn are: a) I need to watch more Hitchcock, b) A lot of the ones I haven't watched, I already have on DVD (God bless Greek newspapers and their Sunday offers!), and c) When ( Read more... )

We die, we die rich with lovers and tribes, tastes we have swallowed, bodies we have entered and swum up like rivers, fears we have hidden in, like this wretched cave. I want all this marked on my body. We are the real countries, not the boundaries drawn on maps with names of powerful men. I know you will come and carry me out into the palace of ( Read more... )

Saoirse and James. Their hands. Need I say anything more?
