I simply feel like writing ~but, I have writer's block.I want to write SOMETHING, but no ideas are coming to mind for the next, great literary masterpiece.For something to do, I'm jotting down my personal thoughts about my re-entry into the world of higher learning.This'll be my second year at Eastern, though I'll be a Junior with a still-undecided major/minor.I started as an English major with

Life Commentary

Maybe this should have been my first blog.and, Perhaps I hesitated on purpose.but, It's entirely likely that the topic means so little to me (or maybe so much) that I failed to see the reason for it until now.Among other things, I'm a big fan of Asian dramas.I watch them as often as I can, and I blog about them all the time.Recently, I saw Koi ga Shitai (Where is Love?), and one of the

My Chinese Fortune for 2010

2010-02-12T13:02:00.007-05:00

The Lucky Element - MetalMetal Ox - The planetary influences will render you rather vulnerable to stress. You'll be often tense, nervous, internally knotted. So don't be surprised if you suffer from intestinal pains again. Try to relax by all available means.(note - by trimester, we mean every, three months)GENERALTo open your mind to new ideas, to forget your egotism, to judge others without

In my Writing About Literature class, the prof. asked some of us why we chose English as a major, and one of the students replied that it was the only subject he got A's in as his reason.Now, I'm wondering if my choice was the right choice, or if I'm missing something I can't (or maybe won't) see.When he said it, I laughed to myself, and then I wished that I had the courage to approach him after

~A sucker for adventure,I'm headed somewhere and somewhere is meant for me.Don't need no map to guide me,Wherever I end up is where I'll be.Goin' somewhere - nowhere fast, As I drift further I'll see the past forced behind me.If I don't reach land tonight,Ill drown in my own insecurity.Sailing in my little red boat (my little red boat),Prayin' to God He will keep me afloatWhile I'm sailin' in my

I Wish ...

2009-10-25T22:57:00.001-04:00

I wish ... I wasn't so stupid not to be able to pick myself up, brush myself off, and frickin' MOVE ON with my life. I wish ... I could let go of the past, or at least not let it affect me this much. I wish ... I knew what I wanted to do (or be) when I grow up (even though I already am - grown up, that is). I wish ... I was smarter - at least smart enough not to have to worry &

Autumnal Background Images

2009-10-25T16:40:00.003-04:00

I hope this works here - blogger changed their upload thingy, and now it's harder for me to figure out which way is best to size images. I'd like to do the thumbnail thing and stack them up, so you can click on whatever catches your eye - thus taking you to a NEW page - but even with that selected, it doesn't work when I do it. Anyway - these are select autumn or fall images I and others have

Rainy Day Boredom

2009-10-09T17:12:00.001-04:00

~ Man, what a drag ~ Fall came in too soon, bringing with it colder temps but amazingly spectacular colors! Sadly, it hasn't stopped RAINING since then, nor have there been other, decent days to go outside and take PICTURES. I don't like taking fall color images on a clear-sky, sunny day ~ I don't think it does any justice whatsoever. On the days when it'd be ideal, (cloudy, overcast days with

Ok - so, I guess I'm addicted. But, not half as badly as I was at the start, and this seems to be the case with just about everything I've ever been addicted to before. It always starts out so MAGICAL for me - Excitement builds, hopes rise, and the thought of doing a wonderful job becomes paramount with each, tantalizing opening of the App. Maybe it's a bit like dating guys. I'm always glad to

Online Waste

2009-08-29T15:47:00.042-04:00

I closed this blog back in January because I wanted to try WordPress this year, but because their CSS is more intricate than blogger, it was impossible for someone like me to install a layout of my choosing and thus had to select from a meager, few generic BS templates that never suited my taste or style. Cut & Paste is more my speed, I realize that now, so I've come to accept my shortcomings

Awful Subtitling

2009-01-10T15:44:00.008-05:00

I knew it ...I knew when I downloaded the first episode of Boys Before Flowers (the Korean version of Hana Yori Dango), that I wouldn't like it. Since Taiwan's Meteor Garden blew Japan's Hana Yori Dango out of the water, I had a sneeking suspicion that anything Korea tried to improve upon would be a wasted effort.I'm not too fond of the cast, either.To be absolutely fair however, it's not the

Crunchyroll's Demise

2009-01-07T21:14:00.019-05:00

NOW I know why the viewership to my Love_Asian_Actors group plummeted from dozens to zero in a matter of days!Last spring, I found Spring Bear's Love online, at a website called Crunchyroll. Then, I realized that they had DOZENS of movies to choose from, and I soon found Crunchyroll to be a fascinating place -- for awhile anyway.Their movies had mediocre subtitling, and few (if any) screw-ups,
