15 RANDOM FACTS ABOUT ME! (oh yay)

1. I like coffee with milk and sugar!

4. Eric Bana is hot for an old dude.
5. I really, really want suspenders right now but I never come across any!

7. I get wedgies a lot. *sigh* :T
8. My friends call me a walking advertisement for Rite Aid. It’s not my fault that Rite Aid has really great and amazing deals ALL the time!

13. The girl in the avatar in this entry is me!

Quote “Even if a person forgets his past, his past will not forget him.” — Maou

ATTENTION! I am looking for someone to co-own the project Spread the LOVE LOVE. Visit the network page for more details on the project please! Thanks!

I have been doing rather well and school is starting for me in less than 10 days! In between friends, vacations, the heat, surgery, and the computer, I have recently been absorbed in the following things that I highly recommend! Read and ABSORB!!!

THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO (abridged) by Alexandre Dumas

WOW this is one of the GREATEST novels I have read to date!!! This is the abridged verison of the original classic, but it’s good nonetheless. This is a bittersweet, psychological page turning adventure full of twists and turns (and very good quotes). It was fun following Edmond Dantes as he gets his revenge on the men that ruined his once perfect life. Superb symbolism, motifs, irony, and other techniques without overdoing it and keeping things interesting! If you like the Count of Monte Cristo (or vice versa), you’ll definitely like Maou (below). I give it a 10/10! A MUST READ! Summary?

MAOU (J-drama, 2008)

Let me just say this remake pawns the original Korean version. For those who have read “The Count of Monte Cristo” (above) or plan to read it, you can say Ohno Satoshi’s role is an Edmond Dantes gone wrong and without a God…but no less brilliant and fun to follow! This drama kept me guessing and empathizing for both sides. The 2 main actors were flipping amazing and played their roles perfectly. This is THE perfect suspense/thriller drama: fast pased, zero bullshit (11Eps), AND emotionally gripping even after “the end” (if you watch it, you’ll see what I’m talking about). I give it a 10/10! A MUST WATCH! Summary/Watch?

ARASHI: TRUTH

Truth is a song that I have recently been obsessing over thanks to Maou (Truth is the opening theme song for it). I like this song so much that I am trying to learn the lyrics! ROFL. I wasn’t a big fan of the song until I watched it with Maou, but now it’s been on loop since! Here’s the video check it out! Satoshi is sexay time ;]

If you have any recommendations for any books, dramas, songs, ANYTHING that you have been recently into, feel free to tell me! I don’t know how often I will update when school starts but I’ll try my best to update on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. Thanks for reading! See you all soon! ^_^

Some site updates!
