I came upon this band about 4 years ago, and I’m glad to say that I’ve finally bought their album. It took one vulnerable night of studying for finals, and within a matter of hours, I’ve spent at least $20 on Itunes. Luckilly, this turned out to be a pretty good [...]
The Sound of Silence
After months of brewing anticipation, I woke up on Friday August 14th, to this coversation over the phone:
“Hey, so do you have any plans for the rest of the day then?
“Oh right, we’re going to brunch and then you’re coming over to get ready for the concert right?
“Ummmm, it’s cancelled, you didn’t see the email?
I [...]
Sunday Throwback: “Clubbed to Death” by Rob Dougan
Perfect music to drive in the rain with.
Farewell to a music idol- Michael Jackson
I was on the phone with my boyfriend a little after 2 p.m. today when I heard the sad news. Like many others, I too couldn’t believe my ears and eyes. Regardless of his public reputation, I don’t think that anyone can honestly deny the talent that Michael Jackson had. I have yet to see [...]
Sunday Throwback: “Cross My Heart”-Eighth wonder
I remember listening to this song while I was growing up, along with some of my mom’s other 80s records. Patsy Kensit is so pretty
Spiffy T-shirt designs with the fob in mind
I was surfing around the internet the other day when I came upon a nifty little website: http://www.anhoi.com/shirts.htm. They carry a variety of t-shirts with witty play on word lines that any Vietnamese at heart would smirk at. One of my favorites in particular bears the phrase: “It’s a Nguyen Nguyen situation”–because you know it’s a [...]
It’s too beautiful of a day…
…to stay indoors and study. I had this song blasting off my speakers as I came out of the shower today:
gotta love the 80s influence.
I’m higher than a kite right now…
So, amidst all of this finals studying frenzy, I’d just like to share some good news: I’M GOING TO SEE DEPECHE MODE IN CONCERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s right, my dear friend from Stanford and I have been planning out our strategy all week long. We both signed up for multiple e-mail alerts, only to discover the pre-sale password…after [...]
Dashing men served up with a side of guns and raw action
What’s better than a movie with Johnny Depp–how about one with monsieur Depp and Christian Bale? Summer is starting to look hot already with the July 1st release of the movie Public Enemies. The film tells the story of how the feds try to take down legendary depression-era bank robber John Dillinger (Depp). His dangerous [...]
“Insomnia”
I’m guessing that part of it has to do with the fact that one of my apartment mates is Korean, because I’ve been finding myself humming along to Korean songs as of late. Maybe it’s my stubborn refusal to jump on the Korean-craze bandwagon that’s kept me in the dark for so long, but honestly–they’ve [...]
