I watched Juan of the Dead the other day, and I knew it was Cuban to the extent that Voltaire tweeted about it and said it made him even more proud to be Cuban, but for some reason, I kind of assumed that it was just made by Cuban people and didn't necessarily took place there. Like, I guess I thought it was made by Cuban-Americans.Anyway, it does ( Read more... )

I'm sure this is interesting news, but I quite love Spotify. I don't know if Erin is still here, but I would like to thank her for her recommendation by which I mean Spotify posting stuff on her Facebook. :) I also love 8tracks because it's basically what I had been doing and enjoy doing. Additionally, as I don't listen to music as much as I'd like ( Read more... )

I think my brother's girlfriend broke up with him, and boy, was it rough. It definitely could've been worse (in my playing out hundreds of scenarios to the umpteenth degree mind), but I'm glad that it seems to have settled down.

I tried to write this a few times but didn't finish. I don't mean to make it all about me and my inability to feel, but on ( Read more... )

According to my MakeAList records, I've saw 111 movies in 2012 and read 10 books including a reread of Gatsby. 'Tis more films, but less books than 2011, but 2011 includes 4 mangas. I did pretty much the same amount of interesting things-- concerts, mini-roadtrips, etc-- which is pathetically few. I don't make resolutions, but hopefully doing more ( Read more... )

Ok, I was going to write a kind of follow-up to my last post, despite my idea of "Real Talk" posts being short and sweet, but then it started going into Jewish people and Fight Club, so I guess I'll have to marinate on that.

I didn't comment on the election. Are we done? Anyway, hooray.

Someone I follow on Tumblr has been posting some pretty serious ( Read more... )

I finished reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and having seen the original Swedish trilogy and Fincher's adaptation before reading, I was surprised by a few things.

When David Fincher's film was coming out last December, I'd found my way to some general news or gossip site. Among some of the less enthusiastic comments was someone bothered by ( Read more... )

So this started happening. If the first thing someone said when they first see me is offer food or talk about it, I think, "Just because I'm fat, you think the only thing I think about is food?" argh.

Pleased

I finished Prisoner of Azkaban! Now I can finally start reading Sleepwalk with Me!

I don't know if Vivi has one.

I want one. :(

I don't remember any Megan's bookpile besides Lolita, which is also in my Amazon wishlist. Also, I think I remembered a piece of that book that was supposed to be for our book club. Not it's name or anything, though... what was your guys's books?

Books I Have

• Vile Bodies
• Pride & Prejudice
• Stupid White Men
• How ( Read more... )

All that to read from my last post, and I've also downloaded Amazon Kindle on my new phone and Sherlock Holmes and Les Miserables after watching the 25th Anniversary Concert on TV. I like when opposing sides sing angrily about each other in harmony.

I deleted Les Mis though because it was translated funny. Let me tell you something about ( Read more... )
