Yeah, so I thought since the main reason I love Skins aside from the awesome writing is the way they color everything — so, so, so, pretty colors — I’d post one snapshot of my favorite scene in each episode. Right now I’m currently watching the Nick Levan episode of Series 5. So anyway, here’s the shot of the episode.

***

I’ll have to re-watch all the previous episodes (from Franky to Liv) to post. After I’m done with that, let’s see if I can still go on and do the same thing with Series 3 and Series 4. Haha, hope I get to finish this, unlike that other meme I seem to have abandoned.

Oh, lookie, it’s Alo’s episode next week and look what prettiness Skins dropped right at the end:

Can’t wait already.

Album Cover

There’s this Facebook Meme going around where you’ll create your own album cover randomly from everywhere. At dahil gaya-gaya ako kay Nikki, eh di ako din. So, here goes:

Make Your Own Album Cover:

1. Go to wikipedia and hit random. The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2. Go to quotationspage.com and hit random. The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3. Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”. Third picture no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4.Use photoshop or similar (picnik.com is a free online photo editor) OR Paint OR whatever.

5. Post it with this text in the “caption” and TAG the friends you want to join in.

And voila:

Disclaimer: No, I don’t own that awesome photo. Just found it at the Explore page.

Slam Online’s Ben York on Sue Bird (Rank #6):

She won’t dazzle you with a ton of behind-the-back passes or put on a dribbling exhibition, but she could teach a class on the best way to make an entry pass or lead a successful fast break. That’s what makes Sue’s game so remarkable – she plays basketball exactly how it was meant to be played.

Hahaha! Lauren Jackson (C/F, Seattle Storm) was on Alan Hills Tonight. I’ll never be able to get over how awesome her accent is. And also the fact that she’s just so down to earth (compared to that diva who brought her previously won medals to one of the tournaments). And oh yeah, love the shout-out to Birdy — best point guard ever! OMG I can’t wait for the 2011 WNBA Season. Is it May already?

PS: The worst thing she ever did to a teammate was break her cheek (and reinjured a previously broken nose). All Stormies know who that poor unfortunate victim was.

PPS: Chicken Legs!

Scott Pilgrim Overload

So I really liked Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, right? I even looped through its OST for about a month before I felt the urge to kick myself and change the effin’ playlist or whatever. I thought that was the end of it.

But no, I actually started reading the comic. Hahahaha. I’m back to the Pilgrim obsession. I even changed the wallpaper on my little netbook (it’s a nifty little thing, perfect if I just wanted to read some monstrous novels and/or scan through scanlations of manga and/or comic).

It’s gonna be a long time again before I completely get this out of my system.

First of all, I would just like to shriek first and release all this fan-girling energy before I go crazy.

SARA BAREILLES MIGHT COME TO TOKYO WOOHOO!

No date yet and I can’t remember the Japanese site that Benson sent me but WHATEVER!

For the meantime, here’s a video of Sara performing in the Chicago Hard Rock Cafe last year:

Okay, before I go get myself LSS~ing on King of Anything and Let the Rain and One Sweet Love and Gravity and City Lights again, I probably should get myself ready for the following first:

3/30 – KT Tunstall @ Shibuya. Gad, I hope my 1-day leave gets approved already.

5/16 – Maroon 5 @ Nippon Budokan.

Can’t wait!

So, I said to him, I said, “You pop that gum one more time…” and he did. So I took the shotgun off the wall and I fired two warning shots…into his head.

He told me he was single and we hit it off right away. So, we started living together. He’d go to work, he’d come home, I’d fix him a drink, We’d have dinner. And then I found out, “Single” he told me? Single, my ass. Not only was he married … oh, no, he had six wives.

He was crazy and he kept screamin’, “you been screwin the milkman.”Then he ran into my knife, he ran into my knife ten times.

UH UH, not guilty!

I come back, open the door, and there’s Veronica and Charlie doing Number Seventeen the spread eagle.

But he was always trying to find himself. He’d go out every night looking for himself and on the way he found Ruth, Gladys, Rosemary and Irving.

– Cell Block Tango, Chicago

Just remembered the awesomeness that is the Cell Block Tango from Chicago (the movie, since there’s really no way for me to watch the show on Broadway as of the moment). Fantastic dance moves, awesome song, I bet this is all sorts of awesome on stage.
