Kiss Me Kill Me

2010-10-05T13:51:00.000-07:00

It is INSANE!

So I was watching this drama... it was so serious looking. This dude comes up ans starts slashing at people! And I'm like... "Ok..." and theeeennnn...

The guy was like, “Oh yeah, it’s my mission to kill this other guy.”

But at the same time, the guy he was after is a wanted criminal and he held this one chick hostage.

All the police were like “OH MI GOD!!”

And then this guy was like, “Oh yeah, I gotta kill him, it’s my mission.”

So he goes to the roof, with a sniper and sets up… then, he stops looks to the left and sees a police sniper next to him.

They both be like “O.O” Then the guy nodded and left.

And I was like, “WhUt?!! ROFLOLMAO!!!”

And then, the killer guy and his friend were eating dog. The killer guy was like, “BLAH BLAH BLAH”

Serious convo and shit.

And THEN the lol thing that happened was that he got all gaggy and ran his ass all the way to his house to throw up in the toilet.

BUT when he got there, some lady was on the toilet throwing up too. So he moves to the bathtub and does it there.

Oh I love this movie.

It turns out that the lady throwing up was his MOM. He tries to comfort his mom by patting her in the back several times, but you could hear it go "pat... pat. Pat... Pat. PAT... PAT. PAT! PAT!!!"

Then she goes, “Hey…”

“That hurts.”

LOL.

After that he finds that he has a mission to do and goes to the person he has to kill, but when he gets there, it was some chick when it was suppose to be a guy!!

She sees the dude pointing a gun at her, so then she grabbed his gun (when he was suppose to be a contract killer), and points it at the guy.

Then she points it at her head. The was like “DX”…

So what he did was, he kicked her head so she won’t shoot herself. And she knocks out.

And then, they suddenly started arguing.

chick: "Are you suppose to help me kill myself?!"

dude: "I hope you live forever you nutjob!"

chick: (hella angry) "WATCH YOUR MOUTH SCUMBAG!"

insane.

Where did my laugh go?

2010-05-02T21:32:00.000-07:00

OMG... the Jack the Ripper case?!! I want to solve that... but I wouldn't want that dude following me around. Yeah he's most likely dead, but you never know with psycho's like that dude.

So I realize that caffeine and me really don't mix. So little makes me sooooooo jittery. It's so obvious when I drink caffeine. I got some people asking me if I'm on crack. And LOL the intensity of my typing when I'm on crack--I mean caffeine. I don't do crack. Really.

Yeah me doing that just made it look like I did crack. Gosh darn. Believe what you want... but I don't.

What happened today? I was suppose to clean my room.... after 3 minutes, I gave up because I found a pair of scissors and started cutting paper. Yes... that distracted me for about 30 minutes... until I realized that I had the internet.

Where did my mind go? I'm not sure... I want to laugh but I don't know what to laugh at. But these days, I think I can laugh at just about anything.... except today. Where did my laugh go? It will come back soon enough. Oh wait, I did laugh today... when heard the most ridiculous thing ever... but I forgot what it was.

OK... what's happening now? Nothing.... I think. Something went "PING" but I don't know if I should ignore it... *contemplating*

I didn't ignore it... it was a message, I replied and they ignored me... Haha!! I contemplated too long!!

BYE BYE! :D

TXT ETTQTTE

I’ve always enjoyed fairy tales, and I enjoy the original fairy tales. So I’m not a stranger to the fact that in the original Cinderella, her stepmother sliced off her daughter’s toes and heels to make it fit into the slipper.

That must have made walking a breeze! But I never knew that Sleeping Beauty was raped by the prince while she was “dead”. And because of that, she gave birth to twins. Quite disgusting really, making love to a “dead” body… the same thing went for Snow White, although she was technically, mentally perhaps, was seven at the time. Pedophilia anyone?
Anyway, on to more important matters…

So I was IMing my friend last night and read over the things I’ve said, I’ve realized that I sounded like a complete pervert… Or at least what I’m trying to say can be communicated and taken several different ways…

For Example:

Friend: He’s handsome, to me anyway…

Me: Ah! My preferences are so weird! Some people even ask, Danni, are you a lesbo? (*Note: I was talking about Japanese Rock and how I love their gaudy attire)

Friend: ...

Me: Then I’m like, if the girl has a penis.

What?! Really, what am I saying? I’m saying that if it’s a guy, then sure. Well it made sense to me then, but when I read it over, I always go, “Why did I write that down?” Sure you can tell me, “Think before you type, so that we won’t have to listen to your stupid little rants,”

Come on! Who thinks when they’re IMing?! It’s suppose to act like a conversation not an intelligent debate! And I hate to be those God-Awful people who pause for such a long time to think about what they’re going to say. Which I really think is a clever way to ignore people without hurting their feelings. If I thought before putting down a response to an IM, this is how it would go…

Friend: Hello? You still there?
Me: Yeah, I’m just trying to think of something to say…
Friend: It’s not that hard really, just tell me if my dress in nice or not.
Me: *still thinking*

It won’t work and I won’t have any friends!
In texting or in IMing, abbreviations are needed to make conversation easier, but perhaps, I should be careful of my abbreviations too. I’m always paranoid that I’m gonna end up racist.

My Text Message: OMG! Have you heard that new Jap band?!
That can be interpreted as “OMG! Japanese band?! EW!!” But then again, I’m just being paranoid.

This reminds me… when I just started IMing people, I knew what “btw” meant but I never knew what “hb” was… So every time I go, “Ah! BRB!! Bathroom!” they always response… “K… hb.”

And I stare at it for so long, going, “What the hell does that mean?!” Then I forget what I have to do. So I just go, “I’m back!” Then, fuck it! They reply with “wb”

…

What does that mean? Well, of course I know now, but man! It wasn’t clear back then! Oh, and here’s an embarrassing IMing mishap…

Me: AH!! OMG!! BLAH BLAH! YEAH AND LIKE… BLAH BLAH
Friend: Um… are you on caps? Can you take it off?
At this point I’m just like “???” So, stupidly, and ridiculously, I answer with…
Me: LOL! :D SO AS I WAS SAYING…

WHAT?!!!! I have bad experience with abbreviations, that’s why I spell everything out, UNLESS I am sure of it.
PS: Don’t text during ceramics class, gets your phone all clay-y.

Mango...ah... I mean MANGA

2009-03-12T22:46:00.001-07:00

Okay... so maybe manga's aren't technically books.

But I can't help it so here we go with manga must reads!

Rules first, though.

I don't care if you like Naruto, I don't care for it, so don't expect that on the list...

Despite what anybody says... plot matters.

No to vampires... unless it's Ethan Bryne of Companions of the Night.

So here we go!

Air Gear: It has always been a must read! Nice art too! It's ecchi, so if you're sensitive to the stuff, don't touch it.
Akuma de Sourou (The Devil Does Exist): For those who enjoy shoujo, then here you go. Such a cute story, and the art is good! Plus~ if you liked the manga there is a live action in Taiwanese called Devil Beside You. It's good...

Apple: *GASP* Very clean art. I mean seriously. And it's funny :D Read it, it's shounen!

Asklepios: Interested in Greek gods and godesses?! THEN READ THIS! Pretty cool actually.

C.A.T: Seinen/action MANHUA... again... note... MANHUA. Amazing art and it's a little bit for the more mature readers in terms of understanding.

Darker than Black: I can't explain this. Watch the anime too.

Deadman Wonderland: Haven't read it myself but was highly recommended... Actually, I'm in the process right now.
Fairy Tail: By the same guy who brought to you One Piece. Really, I laughed in the first chapter... some guy without pants... issues... LOL.

Hello Baby: *chokes* *sob* *sniff* ... Okay well maybe not really. But it was very good. It was drawn by Obata Takeshi. And if you don't know who that it... well it was the guy who drew Death Note.

Kuroshitsuji: CIEL PHANTOMHIVE! Yeah, I'm a BIG fan. Because of this little kid Ciel! And his freaking butler. Very wonderful art by Toboso Yana... AKA Yanao Rock... y-fans, you know what I'm talking about.

Manhole: No! Not that you sicko!! It's actually one of the freakiest things I've read... I was reeling... it hits you right away.

Yamato Nadeshiko Shichihenge (Perfect Girl Evolution): Personal favorite. Wonderful art, directly inspired by Japanese Rock/Visual Kei (WHOO!). Well, maybe not so much. Main character's name is Sunako... Ringu fans, does it ring a bell?

Skyhigh: Very nice! And it had the sketchy kinda look, but not sketchy like Abara. It also has a live action, so check it out.

Stigmata: Religious in someways, but not like Trinity Blood (NUMBER ONE). It's good and the art is good!!!

Well, I got lazy... but this part I won't get lazy for...
Manga that MUST not be read.

Doubt: Waste of time. TRUST ME ON THIS! EVEN IF IT LOOKS REALLY GOOD!

Desire Climax: Unless you're a perv and want to see those kind of scenes every five seconds, then go ahead. But seriously? Bad PLOT! I mean the girl goes through some major drama. First she looses her memory, then there's family issues, then incest issues, then blah blah. One word. DON'T.

A Thousand Years of Snow: Sure, it's by the same author and artist who did Ouran High, but it's not worth it. Stick to Ouran if you must.

Bloody Kiss: I loved this, the art was great and everything, but very... all over the place. And it doesn't really have a real plot. But it's nice looking...

Superior: I KNOW! The cover looks AMAZING!!! But the contents is close to crap. And the demon lady, who was cool in the beginning suddenly becomes annoying.

Eh... it's getting late, so FORGET IT. I'm tired.

Homer say what?!

2009-02-20T21:05:00.000-08:00

No, not Homer Simpson, Homer as in the Iliad? Odyssey? I was just watching Troy, you know, the Trojan war?

Well, first things first... Paris (played by Orlando Bloom) seem weak and cowardly... I don't have anything against Mr. Bloom, in fact I think he's awesome. But the character Paris is really laughable...

Okay, now that that's out of my mind, back to the real topic... HOMER SAID WHAT?!

Dear readers, in the movie Troy, Achilles and Patroclus are best of friends, cousins once removed, they were heroes! And of course, the piece de resistance... they were lovers.

Yes! The notion that Achilles and Patroclus were lovers is quite a shock! Really? No, not really. The Greeks didn't even care that they were, they just wondered who was top and who was bottom... Wow. They argued, as said here, that Achilles was probably the lover as he was stronger, or Patroclus was the lover as he was more mature. But this got me spiraling into the History of Male Love: Greek Mythology.

Really, when we think Apollo, Poseidon, Narcissus, Pan, Hercules (yes, Hercules), and Zeus, we think, manly men/gods who were powerful had many, and I mean many women. In reality, they had an underlying life as a homosexual. My reaction... "WHOA!" I don't have a problem with it, I actually think it's awesome, I even cracked a smile. I am a supporter of gay rights and all that. But yes, even Hercules, our Disney Hero is gay. He had plenty boyfriends despite planting his seed on forty nine different women in one night.

What am I getting at? Just the fact that the Greeks didn't care so much if people-- mostly men-- were gay, and why do we care so much now? Well, of course, penetration was frowned upon then... and I suppose even now... but who are we to say no to other people's love?

Oh dear Nicholas...

2009-02-20T03:05:00.000-08:00

Nick... Nick... Nick... why do you have to grow older? He would have been a wonderful cast for Artemis Fowl... so good that he should have been put to cryogenic sleep. Or maybe that's just my shallow self speaking... Nicholas Hoult is good looking, especially good looking that he fits Artemis Fowl very well. Maybe not as much as Gaspard Ulliel, but... hey.

Actually, despite those two being older that myself, I feel like a wife fangirling over Denzel Washington. I feel old.

Well Eoin Colfer... as long as you do not pick Aidan Mitchell...

Oh me and my love of good looking European Actors...

Shame & Stupid Comparisons...

2009-02-20T02:09:00.000-08:00

WHY EVEN BOTHER?

First things first, I think the only time I will ever mention Twilight is if I’m saying something bad about it. But really now Twilight fans, there may be a good amount of people who trashes the book, but at least it’s getting publicity (true the publicity is negative, but nonetheless, it is publicity).

Second thing, I’m a big fan of Vivian Vande Velde, you can say she sucks as much as you want, it won’t change my opinion and I believe that makes me a die hard fan. If you get pissed just because someone said something sucks, then you’re just making a fool out of yourselves screaming and bitching about how someone doesn’t like something. And really now? Harry Potter vs. Twilight? My God no comparison, it’s like comparing a chocolate chip cookie (Harry Potter) to bile (Twilight). I’m not saying the Twilight is trash or whatever, I’m just saying that it could have been much better written, I mean, legend Stephen King even said it was badly written. And why would you even dare compare a masterpiece like Harry Potter to a Twilight, whose possible reasoning of writing it in the first place was: “I have a fantasy that I’m a girl named Bella and I have an over-possessive and controlling vegetarian vampire boyfriend named Edward!!”

Okay, bashing Twilight is bringing me down… On to a vampire story worthy of mention and worthy of a read!

Come on down! Companions of the Night! Now that is a vampire novel I could read over and over again… in fact, I have read it over thirty times. And if I’m at a library, and I see that book hanging around, I check it out just because it’s Companions of the Night.

So the gist of Companions of the Night… we have a real heroine (not like Bella Swan who must be saved by the, oh so, powerful Edward), Kerry, who is quite conflicted. We also have a real vampire who feeds on people, Ethan/Michel (He’s French), not only does Ethan have better qualities like…like… well I can’t think of anything, but at least he doesn’t stalk girls he likes and watch them from their windows. Peeping tom anyone? I have to say, Ethan embodies the role of the sexy vampire… think Ulliel Gaspard vs. Cedric Digory (really, I don’t know his name, sorry, something Patterson? Peterson? (I have nothing against the actor; he was Cedric for Christ’s sake!)

Gaspard easily won me over… he was in Hannibal Rising.

Anyway, back to the topic at hand… Ethan is WITTY, and he drinks people’s blood so seeing him embarrassed makes him ever "hotter" than Ed, because as we all know he (Ed) is the strong and powerful vegetarian vampire…. Who sparkles in the sun!!! Who can resist SPARKLES?! That’s one of the main differences between Ethan and Ed… one sparkles (Ed), and the other sizzles (Ethan), now come on ladies, sparkling man or sizzling god?

So It’s not really fair for me to say that Twilight sucks when I haven’t read it (I skimmed it, Bella complaining, Bella getting almost hit by car, Edward saving Bella a million times, Bella in trouble again, oh, normal and average girl Bella chased by a million guys… Bella in trouble… Edward save Bella… Op… trouble again… control control control… trouble… save…”Bella!” “Ed!” Repetition much? Oh and limited vocabulary! Yes!!! That is the best book ever!) I’d rather read The Mailman before I read that book, and trust me… The Mailman is a book you don’t want to die with…

What really pisses me off though is that Twilight is put under HORROR. What kind of sick bastard decided that?! It is not horror! Anthony Horrowitz is far more horror that Stephanie Meyers! And Anthony Horrowitz SUCKS at Horror (Please stick to writing Alex Rider). If you want horror, Lois Duncan is a far better read… or at least open Vivian Vande Velde’s Being Dead or Stolen. She can scare the –censored- out of me…

What I’m getting at is… some books SHOULDN’T have all the attention it’s getting and some book SHOULD.

And Eoin Colfer!! Where is that Artemis Fowl Movie?! I’m still waiting and a million and more fans are too!! But um… if I could make a request… Nicholas Hoult as older Artemis, please… I’m a European Actor whore… how shameless…

Artemis Fowl:Time Paradox Ramble Version

2009-02-19T21:41:00.000-08:00

No, I'm not caught up in the Harry Potter buzz (because I lost interest in the long books after the third book; which by the way, I thought was the best out of all of them), nor am I, or ever will be caught up in the, dare I even say it? Twilight (shudder) buzz. I'm actually much more of an Artemis Fowl fan, and that buzz, I can certainly say, I've kept up with.

I think Eoin Colfer is brilliant, and really, Artemis Fowl is one charming character. I can't hate him at all... such a smart and bratty kid... but ugh... I just CAN'T hate him. Sadly, I just read the Time Paraxdox, due to a hundred people putting the book on hold (my fault really), and what can I say? It seems Eoin Colfer is getting better, and if you've read it, you know what scene I'm talking about when I say, "Wow, I truly didn't expect that,"

The thing so captivating about this book is that... God, I can't even explain it... it's too much for me to handle! In a good way.

When I read that book, suddenly, I have the urge to speak in a British accent and say long smart words, and talk smartly.

Example (egg-sahm-puhl):

Instead of saying: "I like Opal," I would say: "I do quite like Opal,"

Quite a nasty disease I think... Artemis Fowl, you are making everyone around you want to be, or perhaps just feel, smart. And even as I'm thinking right now... it's in an English accent... it's not bad, it's just that, Artemis isn't even British... he's Irish.

On to favorite and least favorite characters!

Artemis Fowl can easily be a favorite, a fourteen year old who dresses smartly, with Armani underwear if I might add *cough*spoiler*cough* And of course the way he become much more "manly" in a way where he actually TAKES CARE OF HIMSELF rather than Butler looking over his shoulder. Perhaps emotionally and socially, Artemis really is his should-be-age, seventeen.

Holly Short is someone to admire. She's an anchor, almost the older sister... except of course for that... one... scene... er... yes, you get the point.

I'm not going through all the characters, too much really, but least favorite would be, drumroll please: Minerva. She's like the epitome of fangirl OC's. Like a creation of someone in fanfiction and wanted to be Artemis' rival/lover of some sort! No one can be as smart as Artemis but Artemis himself, adding a girl genius to the mix destroys the flare. Too many cooks ruins the broth. And personally, two human geniuses is too much.

Favorite character title is reserved for... Artemis Fowl!!! Just kidding. My favorite is Opal Koboi. She is the quintessense of paranoia! The empress of psychomaniacs! The Goddess of everything... *ahem* crazy.

How is she my favorite? For one, she's paranoid, yes yes, Folly the Centaur is too, but not as much as dear Opal. For Christ's sakes she thought the plants were cameras watching her, as well as rocks. She's brilliant, possibly far more brilliant that Artemis if she just wasn't so jumpy and easily irritated. Opal is egoistic enough to think that when one looks at her, it would be bad for her skin. She's an irritating person, but a very good asset to have around if you plan on taking over the world... right Cudgeon?

Well, whatever it is, she's my favorite, as well as Artemis and Butler. But I can do without Minerva...

I can go on really, or maybe I can't I'm just saying as an excuse for a passable segue... so, later readers.

PS: Read the series and forget about Twilight-- I think someone just burned a picture of an apple on my lawn...
