Taiyou no Uta & Wall-E
I definitely fell in love with these two movies.
The first one features YUI (one of my favorite artists) as a girl diagnosed with XP, a certain disease where the person inflicted cannot live under the sun/UV rays without suffering from severe burns, mental breakdown, paralysis, etc. It’s a bittersweet story about “Amane Kaoru” living life as best as she could. It even had me in tears at the end when “Good-Bye Days” started playing. ♥ I might end up watching the drama as a result~~ The story might be a little cliche and somewhat predictable… but it was still a nice watch regardless.
Definitely recommended for YUI fans. ;9
Now, the latter, is epic. There’s no true villain in the story, unless you count “autopilot”… There’s not really much of a dialog either, but the audience still understood /what/ the characters meant and that’s one of the greater aspects of the film. X33 The music might get a little repetitive, but in a really cute manner. (so it’s okay) The characters themselves were adorable as well. XD Like M-O, the little cleaning-bot. And of course, this film sends a very strong message: protect the Earth and I hope we will. But by 2110, who knows what would happen?
I definitely recommend Wall-E for anyone. I, personally, loved it. C:

Play with a smile, goddammit.
Today, we played against Encinal in Alameda. Our school won. Surprisingly. Nevertheless, I had a lot of fun playing. I think that might have been the most fun I’ve ever had playing badminton. .. Maybe. I think I also enjoy actual competitions against schools, but this came out to be extra extra fun.

Sechuan, China
It’s scary… To think that such a high magnitude earthquake struck and killed so many people in the eastern hemisphere. … Can’t help but just think about what would happen in the future.
There was a story about a girl, who was on the second floor of her school, lying next to the dead body of her classmate. She was still alive, even after two days, but I’m sure being there next to the dead body of someone you know must have been very traumatizing. D:
…One thing that absolutely makes me sick though are the news reporters for this disaster.
There was a girl was stuck under the debris. She was calling out for help and it took the rescue team a while to find her. I suppose the news reporter was there when she was discovered; because he went over to where her voice was coming from, and asked her all these useless questions (like “How are you? How long have you been there? What happened? Are you hurt?”) while she was saying the entire time, “Mister… Could I have some water please..? Please Mister. I haven’t eaten for a long time…May I have a cup of water?” It was disgusting. Stop asking questions and give her a damn cup of water!
On a lighter note: Legalized Gay Marriage in California!! Yay for liberals. ;D

And it’s over!!
… It’s over. It’s over. Thank goodness. ♥
Btw, I went to Angel Island for camping yesterday. The major highlights (or rather a short summary?), in order, were: getting lost, missed the ferry, but somehow still managing to make it there; torturous hike proving how out-of-shape I am; going to the beach and poking dead jellyfishes; getting the fire started and failing and making dinner: hot dogs; sunset; roasting S’mores and burning marshmallows; whipping each other with glow sticks; believing that the chimney of an abandoned house looked like a man, i.e. chimney man; running from mysterious forest manimals (a raccoon?) while trying to get water; getting our marshmallows stolen by raccoons D: ; sleep-talking; star gazing; passing out; waking up and leaving.
.. We did a lot. Kinda sorta.
(more…)

How are you?
Whenever people ask, for the sake of simplicity, I always say “good”, just because I’m too lazy to say anything else. Also, it’s possibly because I don’t know what else to say. “How are you” feels just like a formality, you say it for the sake of conversation. I suppose, it works if you have nothing else to say. So, idle conversation to win?
I would hate to be a pizza man. Let’s look at this unrealistically, first, I’d have to go through a sex change and secondly, it would be torture for me to deliver PIZZA to someone else’s door. I think that broke my heart right there… The only good thing is that kids would love you, I think. (Unless you ate their pizza and ran, hahaha) But maybe the kids would end up tackling you and mug the pizza or something… .. hm. I don’t want to be a pizza man.
I love to blog. I never liked keeping one, but the idea makes me happy. I also almost always end up dying half way through it because it’s too much of a hassle. (…But I must admit that I like to look back and laugh at my old entries and remember stuff.) So, that’s my primary reason for creating this blog: to laugh at it. The other reason would be: It’s pretty.
