Hmm.

For lack of things to post, I shall reveal my latest addiction.

I am addicted to.....

Avatar : The Last Airbender

Meet Aang, the 12-year old savior-of-the-world.

This series is light-hearted, simple, yet entertaining. Their charcacters are fresh, and less-angsty than the usual anime characters I'm accustomed to. Aang, Katara, Zuko, and even the non-bender Sokka are quite agile and not at all helpless, something I appreciate. The graphics are clean and bright, and the storylines are varied in nature. :) The stories are meaningful and simple. I don't think I can describe them well enough to do them justice; you'll have to watch them yourself. :p

I especially like the episode where many short stories based on each character were featured; I think Iroh's story was the saddest one of all. :( I like Iroh; I think he is a good teacher and a great source of inspiration, advice and laughs. He also makes great tea! :)

Iroh, the Dragon of the West.

Avatar spans 3 seasons; Book 1 of Water, Book 2 of Earth, and Book 3 of Fire. All in all, 61 episodes. They air on Nickelodeon.

They have light moments...

Aang, Katara(bottom left), and Sokka(bottom right).

...and serious ones as well.

Left to right : Toph, Aang, Sokka, Katara.

As you watch through the seasons, you watch Aang and Co. grow and mature, through heartaches, sorrow and joy. And the battle scenes are cool too! :) Zuko's the perfect, persistent, conflicted anti-hero that you never want to have at your heels. >_<" He's also damn lucky to have such a caring uncle as Iroh.

Guess what?

July 2010. WHY-FREAKING-JULY-2010??!

I. Can't. Wait. TvT

The actor for Aang is a cute 12-year old (they got the age right) unknown, Noah Ringer. Nicola Peltz will fill in for Katara while Jackson Rathbone plays her brother, Sokka.

Btw, Mr. Rathbone played Jasper Hale in Twilight. I cannot imagine the pale-skinned, laid-back vampire becoming the tanned, clumsy, complaining Sokka. O.o

I guess stage makeup really is magic. :p

So, thanks to the cruel trailers, I will have to patiently wait for next year. ;D

Belugas

Remember the beluga whale blowing bubbles?

I choose you! Bubble Attack!

Here they are! XD

SO. CUTE.

Bubble

I just learnt today that blood can 'boil'. (O.o)

It's when scuba divers rise too rapidly from the deep sea that the gases in their blood form bubbles, and voila, 'boiling blood'! Creepily cool.

But then again, it'll be mighty painful... So, to all you scuba divers out there, ASCEND SLOWLY please. If you do panic and rise rapidly anyway, do it somewhere near the hospital where I will be at; at least I'll be able to see you and learn about decompression sickness first-hand. I mean, if it's gonna happen to you and you can't avoid it, my as well get some benefit out of it, right? ;p

I'll be ever so thankful. :p

Speaking of bubbles, I had a rotten start to this day... BUT was kinda cured in the library.


It's all about location, location, location.



.... and the company beside you. ;D

Beluga bubbles!

Yay me. LOL.

Black Frames

I'm in the library now.

So is Pretty Eyes.

Pretty Eyes wears glasses.

...chomel.

LOL. >///<

Lifesize

Lifesize

we stood so tall

we caught a plane

by the wing and held it safe

until we found it a place to land

we laid across the ocean wide,

bridged the gap in record time,

the people traveled across

and kissed our hands

all for love,

we become

larger than lifesize, wondersome

great in the eyes of someone

larger than lifesize we become,

great in the eyes of someone

we smiled so bright

the sun went down

rose above

the maddening crowd

we lit the streets

with the sweetest glow

we held the globe

and made it turn

wandered through the universe

the men of science observed

through telescopes

all for love,

we become

larger than lifesize, wondersome

great in the eyes of someone

larger than lifesize we become,

great in the eyes of someone

larger than lifesize, we become

larger than lifesize, we become,

great in the eyes of someone

~A Fine Frenzy~

The best song to listen to when you want to feel like a superhero. ;D

Zombie No More

I had CSU today. =) And I was lucky to get Dr. Hla. She's so sweet. =)

Finally, I broke the string of being zombie-like in CSUs!

My SP was Eugene; he's an old pro. Hell, he knew more than us. =_=" And he cracked jokes, which was good, 'cos some SPs lie there like a dead fish/living doll while we poke at them, and well, I'd take Eugene over those SPs anyday.

So my CSU was a completely relaxed session today, a VERY GOOD THING. =) I approve of the Dr.Hla+SP Eugene combination. Thank you, my lucky stars. =)

Oh, and yesterday when I was using the uni's computers, and I had a very nice seat. =) There was this good-looking Korean dude sitting opposite me and Pretty Eyes was sitting behind me. =D

Hey, I do notice the people around me okay? =)

...and gloat when the eyecandies are delish~ Hee hee.

One Cell In The Sea

I finally managed to aquire it. =)

As London would say, Yay for me! TTvTT

Breathe, Don't Hyperventilate

Respiration system Week starts today. =( It started with Embryology, my favourite subject.

Whee. Yay.

So, to make up for a lack of content in this post, smile over this. I know I did. =)

Good day, folks.

Another one...

Zimbo Trio's Que Maravilha/ Chove Chuva

This is good too.

Erin McCarley

I found this album on the uni's computer desktop.

Erin McCarley's Love, Save The Empty.

Hmm.

I took a try listening to it.

And whaddya know, hey, she's good. =) This one's got my reccomendation. =)

I like. XD

SCARY SCARY SCARY SCARY GYAAA

I just came out from watching a Pathology quiz.

I'm so FREAKED.

Those people who joined it are like demi-gods. I'm like a single-celled microorganism to them. They could identify the gross pictures the lecturer put up and also the cause and describe them in the time I took to think, "Ewww." I feel very frustratingly insignificant and de-evolved right now. Errrgh.

Graaaarrrgh!

I am torn right now; should I cry hysterically or laugh hysterically? Or should I do both...? Tempting, very tempting. TT_TT

Life ain't fair. >:(

Zombie Day

I don't know what is it with me and CSUs. I almost always go through CSUs in a tired haze.

Today I was like a century-old (but better-looking, lol) zombie shambling around in uni. I didn't sleep late last night. I took a decent breakfast. Hmph. I guess I'm just not a morning person...?

An exam's looming up soon, and I HAVE TO ACE THIS ONE. =( I gotta. So that means I am involuntarily a morning-person starting from now onwards. I mean, starting from tomorrow. =p

But all is NOT lost! I found me a new eyecandy! lol I don't know who he is, but I know he's got pretty eyes. =) Very pretty. And I found out that my old faci is still in uni, for the Sem 5 people. Lucky souls... Nice to know there ARE cute guys IN my neighborhood, and isn't unfairly concentrated halfway across the world. =)

So god didn't forget me after all. ;)
