Songs Of the Week

Shine PV is breathtaking! Amazingly beautiful. One of the best Laruku PVs. This is a band that knows how to reinvent oneself.

Crazy World by Anna Tsuchiya feat. AI. I was wondering for a long time now who's this Anna Tsuchiya everyone's talking about. Now I know. Haven't listened to her stuff yet, but the song is good and catchy as hell, right from the first listen.

Umbrella by the Manic Street Preachers. When I saw 'new single Umbrella out on iTunes' in my mind it didn't connect with Rihanna's song. I think it's brilliant. Guitar sound + James' transcedent vocals - the rapping = FTW.

Manics in Moscow

Fuck. Just fuck.
The Manics had a gig in Moscow on the 23rd of July. For the first time in 19 years. And I only found out tonight.
But that's just my bitching. In reality.. maybe it's better that way. I doubt I would go anyway. It'd be very bothersome to go alone and I bet the tickets were really hard to get since they played in a club. Yet... what if it was the last chance to see my favourite band? I'm kinda upset.

They haven't included a single track from The Holy Bible. And they didn't even do an encore. I looked through a couple of reviews and they weren't that good, despite the fact that noone could deny that the performance itself was brilliant. Not that I care.
And I can't believe they actually did a cover of Rihanna's 'Umbrella'. But it sounds cool. Now I can listen to the song without feeling guilty.
They kind of promised to come back soon, but I wouldn't count on it. Especially with all the shit going on in Russia at the moment.

I'm done with Season 1. I love this series. Never been a fan of Titanic, but James Cameron rules.
Now I have some serious multi-tasking going on. There's still Season 2 and the Planescape, and a couple of fix too. The Arc, even though it's not even finished yet, it may take years for all I know. And Snap, should take another month or so. Not that I complain, 's good to have something cool to read.
'Pls' is now complete. It makes me feel real good. Never had a fic dedicated to me before. No, actually I can't remember anyting dedicated to me before. Sure it didn't turn out quite the way I wanted, but 's all right. If she writes anything as perfect as 'BbtFW' again I'm gonna take the next trip to Canada and propose to this woman. Just kiddin'. I still owe her some feedback though. And a video.
Lots of other stuff too. Like yesterday, when I dig out this translation project on MSP I dropped about 3-4 years ago. And I'm gonna finish it one day. Oh yeah, I try to enjoy this luxury of choice the best I can.

P.S. Original Cindy and Annah are rubbing offa meh)

"Tomorrow's going to be a long day, Yoochun-ah. Get some sleep," Junsu says, giving him a smile. His 'Xiah Junsu hwaiting!' smile, when they pretend there's only four of them in the band."

If I evaluated myself on the basis of appreciation from other people I would have to consider myself a failure. That's why I decided I don't care early on.

(partly copied from my actual diary)

I'm back.
It's so good to be home. 4 days at the seaside... any other would be happy about it. But not me.
I mean, it was alright. My choice, after all. An opportunity came and I took it. No regrets, no excuses. It wasn't a regular holiday, but rather a trial I set for myself. I felt like I needed a distraction, a change of perspective, or maybe it was an imposed belief. Anyway, if you look at it that way I failed. Maybe I'm too pampered and lazy and unable to appreciate things, but...

"So what's this all about?" i tried to figure out as I lay deadly tired and sunburnt and sporting a massive headache probably due to prolonged exposure to the sun (no use that I used tons of cream and never left the shade of my umbrella). I just can't help but wonder at how much time, money and nerves people are willing to waste for an opportunity to laze around under a burning sun for a couple of days. The only thing that makes it all worthwhile is the primal elemental grandeur of the sea. But i didn't get to enjoy it much due to the aforementioned skin damage. Besides, almost two days spent in a stinky suffocating train can efficently dim the few pleasurable experiences I've had. Not to mention the total absence of runing water most of the time, the view of numerous unaesthetic looking bodies, the highly annoying insects and many other aspects. Overall I find it quite a dubious pleasure.
Then again, I think if I went with someone else, it might have been a lot better that this.

The only major purpose this trip served is making me feel terribly homesick (that includes supreme appreciation of modern conveniences). I miss everyone, it seems like it's been not 5 days, but at least a dozen. I discovered a newfound eagerness, for communication, for creation and just the usual home routine. Not to mention my beloved PC. Now I shall take a nice long bath, have a cup of coffe, read a couple of fanfics and proceed to enjoy my mundane and unhealthy home vacation.

Yes, I'm totally weird and boring like that. ))

I'm going away. Finally. This should do me some good. A Vaction. Away, far away. Salty air and the sea..
See you later, all. Should be back on 26th or 27th.

I write a lot recently. Guess it's one of the reasons why I can't get anyting done. I really like writing, and typing too. Lately I don't even care if anyone reads my stuff or not. Really. It's officially become a branch of my paper diary. I've actually been thinking about moving to LJ, but...

So anyway, the reason for this post is following. Yesternight I made a draft of the post about OTP, brought back a lot of good memories. I even reread one of the fics from a long-abandoned fandom. So tonight I thought of this one fiction arc I read years ago. One of the best things I've ever read, in terms of plot, style, descriptions, emotional complexity. It was a glorious autumn, I was addicted, kept reading it like mad. Only to find out eventually the story was incomplete. The author abandoned it and the site died off. It happened almost 4 years ago, but I kept bringing it up from time to time. It was one of my greatest disappointments, really. But there wasn't any hope.

And tonight, since I remembered about it once again, I decided to check the authors name, just for the hell of it. And to my utter astonshment I found the site reconstructed and the fic continued. Yay for Part VIII! Guess it's like, work of many years. And it's damn worth it. I'd nominate it for Pulitzer's price, well, in fanfiction anyway. And damn I want to read it. Bad. Now I'm pondering what to do. Try and pick up from where I left -nah, too much I don't remember; read it all over again - that'll take reeeally long, first time took me about a month of frantic reading - 'coz there are about 60 chapters and they ain't no small; most likely I'll try to use my speed-reading on it. But then again - it's not finished yet, and may take years at that.

Recently I feel all my fandoms are getting a bit too much. In a good sense, there's always something to do, watch, read. In a bad - I can't keep up all of them, even briefly, it's like there's no end to this process. Not that it's bad, I wouldn't mind slacking off like that for as long as I'm able.
