I was a huge Beatles fan in my early teens. I still enjoy listening to them occasionally, but way back then Beatlemaniac was pretty much the my identity. Naturally, I had every record in some way or form. Many of them as cassettes that my ex-step-dad's Beatlemaniac brother gave to me.

My A Hard Day's Night was a soviet Melodiya LP release, and one ( Read more... )

Also, I'm forcing myself to watch the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. When I say "force" I mean that I do everything I can to avoid - I do diches, I cleaned up stuff on my desk from probably a year ago, I cook, I bake, I blog, I doodle. Anything but another episode. I have bravely braved four episodes now. Last time millions of people have been so ( Read more... )

It may sound incredibly superficial, but one of the reasons I hated realizing that unpleasant experiences don't automatically lead to becoming a better person is that I worried I would no longer be able to use Kanye's Stronger as a motivational song. The track has served as my "Suhinina, pick yourself off the ground" cue since that 2007 night when ( Read more... )

After watching the X Files I felt omg cravings for a new look, so today I went thrift store shopping with Kajsa to obtain one of the key objects - the pants. These are too long, but just the right texture and colour.

Here come some reviews of pop-cultural experiences of the week that's now ending.

Here at home we watch the X-files. It's so incredibly 90's and I'm incredibly gay for Scully, except the rare moments when I'm enormously hetero for Mulder. Like so so so hetero. This straight: --------------------------------. And then I turn sapphic again.

My new favourite mood/motivational song on iPod. Just wait til you see the video. It's rad! he's SO ANGRY! Like he's gonna scream!

The voices in my head,
Tell me they know best!
Got me on the edge,
they're pushin', pushin', they're pushin'

I know they got a plan,
While the ball's in my hands!
This time it's man-to-man,
I'm droppin', fightin', its ( Read more... )

Last Monday, my new streetdance class teacher made us work out to Kanye West's Stronger, to my amusement.
Tomorrow I expect Kanye's New Workout Plan, no less.

Youtube sucks for Kanye. Could it be Mr West has opinions on how we watch his videos and refer to his music? Not cool. The Intrawebs will not forgive.

And HSM3 has still not leaked in any ( Read more... )
