Everybody else is doing it, so why can’t I?

Out sick today; there’s a flu going around the office and it didn’t help that when my sore throat was starting a couple of days ago I went to a friend’s house to hang out for a couple of laughs, Buddha-style. Last night I was slightly feverish and then I went into paranoid mode - [...]

Watched Ran last night. I have an irrational fear of Chinese opera and Noh theater so when I first saw Lady Kaede in the film I was suddenly all, oh shit I’m fucked, my dreams are going to be all mental.
Season 3 of Friday Night Lights is on, too, and I realized today why I [...]

Due to present circumstances, aka language barrier, the only copy of “In the Mood for Love” I could borrow from the internets was dubbed in Portugese. At least it had English subtitles. I hate dubbing. Dubbing sucks.
The movie was hilarious. It was a visual delight. You ever notice how Asian actresses’ eyebrows deserve their own [...]

None of my high school friends are great dancers — our prom dance floors were populated by kids holding each other at arms’ length swaying to Richard Marx like hormonal metronomes — so it’s a little unnerving but liberating to see Selena letting herself go and obviously having so much fun in their music video [...]
