Last month, I was reading Entertainment Weekly and it had a hysterical conversation between Matt Bomer (White Collar) and Joe Manganiello (True Blood) about them being college pals from Carnegie Mellon and upcoming co-stars in Magic Mike, which is the Steven Soderbergh stripper movie based on Channing Tatum's real-life experiences as a male ( Read more... )

I have just rolled home after eating way too much Indian food (SO. GOOD. SO. FULL.) and seeing the Immortals. I liked the Immortals, as it was basically what I expected from it: pretty visuals and heads flying at you in 3D. However, I did manage to have a couple of feelings about the movie:
( Cut because I know that everyone is totally worried about getting spoiled about the plot of Immortals. )

So it was really freaking hot out today in Tokyo. 33C (or about 91F). And before people start discussing how hot it is wherever you happen to live, I remind you that Tokyo is A) humid and B) I was walking around town today. I'm seriously so exhausted right now.

• I went to China! With my mommy ( Read more... )

Things I Discovered On My Summer Vacation

After three days in Paris and one too many delicious delicious sandwich, I suddenly discovered that I was utterly sick of the combination. Honestly, if I had one more slice of ham, I thought I was going to scream. For dinner that last night, my mom and I ( Read more... )

I had a pretty good weekend to combat recent work/life stress. On Saturday, johnabe took me to see "Terminator Salvation" (just known as the more logical "Terminator 4" in Japan). It was my first ever Terminator movie, and you know what? I quite liked it. It has lots of fun action and explosions and some pretty amazing shots (there's a helicopter crash in ( Read more... )

Okay, I've got to ask because I've heard about it on other people's blogs and on news sites and even from my freaking parents... Susan Boyle. Am I seriously the only one who didn't start weeping and having a life changing experience upon hearing her sing? I mean, she's a good singer, and if she were at my karaoke night, I'd cheer nice and loud. But ( Read more... )
