life. revolving around the telly/ 11:45 PM
so, greetings people. i'm back from my recent trip to nowhere-dom.
i hope the new font sizes and fonts themselves are to your liking.
They are? Awesome.
They're not? TOO BAD.
Anyway, my mind's been crazily been dreaming of scrambling words up and finding other words i can make with those letters, due to an overuse of something called facebook. Damn.
So yesterday, i was watching the Europe Music Awards on MTV, which i usually don't, not only because it's not usually showing, but mostly due to my utter boredom. It was really cool, especially the killers performing their new single, human.
Halfway through, theres the word's human flashing on those screens, but due to brandon being in the middle of that rubix cube-like structure, M was cut away, and it said "HU AN" and i weirdly thought of Lihuan (sorry if this weirds you out!)
But other than that, it was a great performance. I remember 4, 5 years back when i was OBSESSED with the killers, and the bravery, but more of the bravery. On hindsight, now i think the killers are better, because their quality of their albums have been somewhat more consistent than of the bravery's. No doubt, 2nd album of the killers takes some time to adjust to, but compared to the bravery's "the sun and moon", i know it's a "shift in musical direction" and whatev. But damn, imo that shift SUCKS. (no offence)
Anyway, please enjoy the Killers' Human. Halfway through watching it on MTV, i started jumping up and down my couch, and around my living room, and even using the standing lamp as a mic, being a huge fool.
Today, i saw the trailer for "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist", and i thought it was pretty awesome. Which trailers are suppossed to look like anyway. HAHA.
But i really like movies with rock music-romance-comedy as genres. It looks really funny and awesome. take a look below:
After seeing the trailer, i thought of school of rock.
You know, you always have one of those movies that inspire you to do whatever you do? That was IT for me. I remember watching it in Sec 1 because it was compulsory. I remember throughout the entire movie, my eyes were glued to the screen. It was.. just immensely amazing, and an awe inspiring movie for me. I loved it so much, that i borrowed it from Jeslyn to watch OVER, and OVER and OVER again. I remember in sec 2, when i wanted to be a rockstar, and i did really weird things with my clothes. (pardon me, this might be a bad visual) I wore like a white long sleeved shirt, and a man u jersey over that, and a tie. Yes, weird, i know. It doesn't end there though. I'd jump around the house too, playing the air guitar like a
rockstar freak. This was THE movie that first made me interested in rock music, that first made me want to learn the guitar. It was just.. BAM. And till this day, i think that has been one of the most inspiring movies i've ever watched. (not touching. inspiring) It may be a bad movie or whatev, but imo, my love for rock music started there. It fueled my desire to learn the guitar, it got be pissed at radio stations. It made me who i am today, i'd say. Well maybe i'd still learn the guitar, albeit much later, or maybe i wouldn't. I just wouldn't be who i am today without that movie.
I'm serious.(ly weirding you out, aren't i? :P)
So anyway, i'm really not sure what the whole point of that post was, other than to tell you about my music inspiration, which is probably kinda lame, but i dunno.
I usually have cool things to say, then get lazy to type it up, because, well, i'm lazy.
HAHA, so yes, you've heard it from me, i'm lazy. WOW, like that was a surprise.
btw, carin, if you're reading this, HSM3's only screening till THIS WEDNESDAY. so.. YAH.
Today, i suddenly pictured myself as a movie director, or song composer for movie soundtracks. Like bigshot ones. Call me crazy, or whatever, but i thought it was awesome. And cool. Yeah, i'm cool enough to be a director, defo! Like real. Shannon, stop dreaming.
