It was a free screening for people who had recently bought new cell phones or something, so the crowd was not a typical mass of Twihards or even Twisofts. They were simply people who had nothing better to do than to use the free tickets and be lured with a chance to win an even newer cell phone that was to be given away afterwards.
It was so cute hearing all those ewws and omgs and giggles and feeling free to pitch in at the next overly epic barf-inducer.
The best part of that movie was when during the final scene where Ed and Bells (who thankfully acquired some balls) are both winning at lame-o-game, some guy in the movie theatre took his beer and just walked out, laughing quietly, shooting the rest of us a look saying ‘we were in this boat together for two hours but screw you guys – I’m going home’.
Don’t get me wrong, I would have paid to see the movie and I’ll probably be forced to go watch it again. I like my movies lame sometimes. But it’s a bit sad how they obviously overdid it with the epicness of it all. One mustn’t overdraw from one’s resources.
I just wanted to write about how it’s not a big deal since I’m probably not the target audience either but then I started thinking who is. It can’t be kids and pre-teens, there’s too much sex in it (one whole sex u guyzz!) and the producers must have thought that one through.
Ah, who cares. It’s over and we are finally free. BREAK THE CHAINS FROM SPARKLING VAMPIRES AND FLY AWAY MY DEAR FRIEND. Fly far away, the casters and such are coming to take you hostage.
I need that animal in my life.
BUT WHICH ONE AM I TALKING ABOUT HHHMMMMMMMM???

Now that I’ve had time to mull things over I’d like to take the time to say a few words about the fifth season of True Blood. Three words, actually.
It
was
awful
This is the problem with popular television: nobody knows when to quit. The show must go on for as long as there is a hopeful and loyal audience to be milked somewhere. Doesn’t really matter if it becomes a great big parody of itself.
How many times have we at some point been forced to go “bleh” at our favorite tv shows because good (or even half decent) ideas are all used up but someone somewhere still wants more money. Even if the cost of that money is DIGNITY. and HONOR. AND JUSTICE TO KITTENS EVERYWHERE!!
OK so I am perfectly aware of the fact that the world will not end after a horrible season of vampire tv. But would it kill anyone to go out with a bang instead of a mumbled flop-flop-ffssshh? I think that sounds accurate enough.
They do have Alexander though and that’s a good card to hold considering half the population watching TV are people who have vaginas.
So here’s to season six. Milk me some more, HBO.

Over a year of absence I have returned to my blog. After my computer’s psychological episodes and the following format my passwords went m.i.a. and my laziness prevented me from dealing with this problem.
Until now!
I am back and I’ve never been better so I’m looking forward to my own writings that I will be the sole reader of in the near future with a bottle of beer in my hand and a nostalgic tear in the corner of my eye.

When Fringe started, I was psyched. I thought it was kind of like x-files, only more scientific – an epic win combo! And the first season was great, it totally delivered! I was pleased, Al was pleased, and we were both looking forward to season 2.
For a while, season 2 also delivered, but then confusion kicked in. The scientific side was starting to slip, and we entered Twilight Zone with hints of budding romance in the air. But with the positive feelings we had for the first season, we made it through the second and hoped the Awesome would return in season 3.
And then came season three. And it was, at first, still pretty confusing and we didn’t quite know what this show was about anymore. But now the season is half-way through and a few episodes ago…
“Oh, it’s a love story,” she said in a whisper of a cry.
A romance is also, in itself, quite OK. But when you think back on the promising season 1, you cannot help but feel like the show has curled up under a tree trunk and died a smelly death.
To illustrate this mess, here’s a typical scene from season 1:
And here’s a typical scene from season 3:
Can you hear it? Can you hear the bar being buried?
PS I cannot get over the fact that at first Walter said there were supposedly an infinite number of universes, but now, for some unexplained reason, there are only two. What happened to the rest?
Where did they go?!?

We got it for last christmas. I love it.
For a while I was quite pleased with the option to exercise, but my willpower is quick with the vanishing act so no more shadow boxing for a while. Fortunately not all the games make full use of Wii’s movement recognition thingamabob or whatever, so you can laze on the couch and play Super Mario just as happily.
My favorite game thus far is Sengoku Basara 3. Since I’m essentially a girly girl, I hadn’t played that kind of games before. You know, the ones where you have to kick and kill and wreak havoc etc. So when Al forced me to play Basara for the first time I just pouted and pushed random buttons. But then after a while the pout disappeared and I started making sense of the game. And then I loved it.
My favorite character is Yukimura. He is awesome.
I heard they made Basara into an anime. huh.

REALLY GOOD MUSIC, MAN.
So what if I don’t understand anything they’re saying. Who cares. You can enjoy something without understanding it. Yes. I like that explanation.

Ivy making home at your feet and in your heart
You can tell it mends the twisted thoughts, the broken parts
With your back in the roots and your face to sunsets
All you have is nothing more than a concept of no more starts
Envision all that’s never to come
and with a lively hum and dying regret
let go of all that’s gone, to come
all dreams with chances unmet; all – not just some.

I have never been a fan of hiphop, because that genre reached my ears at the stage when it was already mostly shit. So when I first heard Digable Planets in… um… 2005, I had no idea that it’s hiphop, I thought it was some cool modern jazz or whatever.
Now I am listening to them and loving them again.

I have been absent from my blog for a while. There’s a good reason for it: I simply was not here.
I was having problems with my perception of reality after giving anime a chance and getting lost in it. Yes, I too have fallen victim to the Japanese. Of course, I did start with Samurai Champloo, so you can surely understand how a person could (the following is all hypothetical… yes, ahem) end up spending 12 hours a day on her butt doing absolutely nothing but search for new anime new new new anime more anime yes please more gimmegimmegimme no dishes we don’t have dishes who are you are you my boyfriend no yes new anime more more more what it’s already 6am what oh no school what’s that anime more more anime!
etc.
I have watched SO so many things since being captured and although I still steal an hour from time to time to watch anime, my perception of reality is once again intact. Of course, I have a looong long way to go before I reach the end of my anime craze.
To give you an idea of what I’ve been doing, below is a list of all the things I’ve seen. It is possible that some of the things are absent from the list. In some cases I just watched some of the episodes and then gave up on the series. In any case, if somebody was to mention any of these titles, I’d at least know what they are.
And yes, if you look at the list closely enough you can see that I have had a romance anime period in my life (Kimi Ni Todoke has THE BEST opening and ending theme), followed by things like Boku wa Imōto ni Koi o Suru. Say what you will about that theme, but Koi Kaze is one of the most beautiful love stories ever. And then came the yaoi period. Junjou Romantica is just SOOOOO cute! Not much of a hentai fan, though, so I can at least feel that much better about my morality. Aaaah, morality schmorality. Boy on boy beats anything anytime!
Now I am happily back to romance and will watch Peach Girl after finishing this post.
Oh, and I graduated from university. Yay.

Mari and I took a walk down memory lane today. Well… we tried.
We tried to somehow get to the forest behind our houses. We used to go there every day when we were kids, pretending we were forest people who could hear secrets in the wind or whatever. We were those genuine country kids who wandered around all day long, discovering and rediscovering every rock and plant in the village.
In the forest there is a small dam. I remember it was the ultimate test of courage to jump over it. Those who could jump would then go deeper into the forest and those who could not would have to find something else to do. I had to find something else to do. The chicken that I am.
Finally, when I got the courage to jump I could join The Brave Ones to go eat ants (yes, dear reader) and climb trees on the other side of the dam. Fun!
But since today the earth was wet and branches were knit into impenetrable walls, we did not get to the dam. It’s a shame. But I will fix this.
I tried to google my home forest and found a picture taken in that forest by one of my childhood friends:
