He goes into the intellectual foundations, the philosophy of it, why it's meaningful. That perspective is engaging. Instead of 'here's what we did,' it's 'here's what we did, here's why, here's what it means.' - On Nate Fick's One Bullet Away

This is totally the reason why I adore One Bullet Away.

He feels lonely, until he turns the page. Then the next. And the next.

This is DEFINITELY one of the main reasons why I started reading, and why I continue to read so much. Books (WORDS!) are my constant companion, and I adore them for that.

Zoe Saldana and Jeffrey Dean Morgan, together? Plus intelligence agencies, plot and political intrigue? With guns and explosions?

This movie is gonna be smoking HOT. Seriously though, I would totally watch it just for guns and Zoe Saldana (and Jeffrey Dean Morgan).

I didn;t really like this episode, and it is partly because of my embarrassment squick ( cut for spoiler of 5.12 )

But, reading reviews and meta about the episode helped me to increase my liking for it. So, reviews are not necessarily negative, and they can definitely help you see the good points. They bring new perspective to something that I don't enjoy much, so that's good.

Basically, whee! This episode is not that bad after all.

Haha, but Val won't be happy. ( Character Spoiler )

He is so comfortable on stage, singing this song. His moves, his voice. This is definitely Adam at his best, and I am just so gleeful watching him. Can't wait for vids of his AOL sessions to be released.

New SPN tmr!! And Vampire Diaries, hee.

I am so adoring "I Am What I Am" by John Barrowman. He is as brilliant and as witty as ever, and his voice comes through so clearly. His stories are completely hilarious, and even though he jumps from topic to topic, I love reading all of them.

This is the first book in a long while since I have read and I cannot put it down. I am halfway through and I'm so sad that it is ending. I wished he had written more! I love pictures of Scott that he placed in the picture collection. Seriously, Scott looks like a movie star, and he is an accomplished architect.

I love the book, and I can't wait to watch his concert DVD.

John Barrowman and Neil Patrick Harris are the best kind of performers. Their entertaining skills are top notch.

*dives back into book to continue reading*

WTH? So objectification of women by their body parts is okay now? This is insulting. No, seriously. Until and unless this club does this for men parts as well, this is an insult to women.

Once again, WTH? I am all for the military getting the best equipment, and for the Word to spreading every circumstance. But this? This is endangering them. This is escalating the war and allowing the jihad fighters to have even more reason to believe that there IS a holy war going on. Hope the Congress does smth about it.

To all my fellow Lit P4 mates,

Every year since 1949, a mystery visitor has left cognac and roses on the grave of Edgar Allan Poe on the author’s birthday. Until this year. For the first time in sixty years, the author didn’t get his toast, and no one knows why.

YOU GUISE. SO SAD :(

This is why:

( Spoilers for Chuck, HIMYM, Glee )

I love how it makes me happy! Not too specific, but pretty awesome all the same. I have thoughts on Prop 8 trial. Shall discuss them later. :)

makes me so happy! Just the thought of Star Trek actors gathered at an event together. I can't wait for the sequel.

I ADORE THE USE OF THE 'SPECIAL SNOWFLAKE'. It never fails to make me laugh.

Being a 'special snowflake' is kinda like thinking that you are entitled to something that you are not. If I come across any example, I will quote them here.

I love spending time with my JC class ytd. Seriously, I feel so comfortable with them, and most of us hasn't really changed much. No matter how different we are, we are still a close bunch. AWESOME.

Chuck! The first 3 episodes of the third season is SO GOOD. And the third episode ended on a cliffhanger. OMG OMG OMG!!! Should I go read spoilers to the next episode? OMG! I really want to know!!!! AHHHHHH! (ETA: I have just read the wiki summary for next week. I think it tells me what I want to know. I think.)

Anyway, I really love the third episode. So much of Captain Awesome, and I just love when Captain Awesome is simply being awesome. The episode is also done very well. Yay! This is so hopeful for a fourth season!

HIMYM's 100th episode is really awesome, and I always adore Neil Patrick Harris when he sings.

I am pretty tired these days, but I am getting excited to do a job well for this time of my life. No slacking, no cutting corners, but actually doing my job well.

Lots of books coming my way, I can't wait to read them when they arrive. Next month is hopefully all about clothes, accessories and cosmetics, so I will stock up on those next month.

My TV shows are returning. I am most excited about HIMYM 100th episode this coming week, LEVERAGE (!!!) and the return of Chuck. I have NO idea what episode 11 of SPN is about, so don't spoil me, thanks! Lots of new shows are also starting in mid season, e.g. Day One, Parenthood, In Plain Sight. Will have to watch the pilots and add my favs to my watchlist. Hee.

Couple of good movies coming out soon, like Daybreakers and Clash of the Titans. Anyone who wants to watch these, do ask me out to watch them as well.

Starting from tomorrow, I will plan my months ahead. I wanna go to Rome, learn a language, re-acquire dance skills and a couple more things. I need to plan! :)

( And so they went to someone's place... )

I think I once complained about the use of a particular phrasing several times. Like, across several stories I read. I forgot what phrase it was, though.

I don't know why, but I doubt I'll ever get tired of the 'I see your.. and I'll raise you a...' phrase. Perhaps because it is not common to me, so I like it.

Yeah, everyday insight into Shi Wei's life. Why is she so picky about these words thing? Haha, I guess that's just me.

“And don’t call them idiots,” he says, voice softer now. “Addicts are smart.”

“What?”

“They’re smart people. Devious. They have to be, to handle the lives they’ve been pitched into. They’re people who’ve made bad decisions, people who’re just trying to survive. To cope with what life’s thrown at them.”

Sometimes, I get blindsided by things like that. Things that remind me that crazy, or addicted, doesn't mean idiot or violent.

Ah well, you learn new things everyday.

It's not paranoia if they really are out to get you

Cliches, when used sparingly, can be such a delightful read.
