Jaw-dropping, Mahou Shoujo

I usually view only one anime series per season (sometimes not even finishing one), and I was convinced into watching Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica for this winter season. I saw this particular series in the preview articles, and it didn't catch my eye at all. The art is too moe for me, and I'm personally not very interested in the mahou shoujo genre. The only anime that I watched in this genre was Cardcaptor Sakura, and that's like years ago.

Okay, so how was I convinced? I read some interesting speculations and reactions to this series from various aniblogs, but that wasn't enough to push me into watching it. Instead, my friends in Mabinogi gave such interesting reactions after watching 3 episodes of Madoka Magica that I decided to watch it.

Hermione in Harry Potter 7

I think Harry Potter stands as a very important part of my childhood, and I've religiously went to the movies for all the big screen versions of them. But as I grow older, the passion has faded considerably. This does not mean I don't like Harry Potter anymore, I still do; it's just that I now have other stuff to be obsessed about. I realized some time ago that my memory of the Harry Potter books ends at volume four, literally. I remember most of what happened in the first four volumes, I know what happened, what transpired, and the endings. But from there on, my memories are blurred and need a lot of prodding to recall things.

And so, it took me a long time to get to theaters for this first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, mostly because I wasn't that enthusiastic at first. Only when the movie had almost stopped showing did I realize I've been present for all of the movies before, so I went to see it. Welllll, I remember only small details about the seventh book, so I saw this movie almost like someone who has never read the book, lol.

In Midst of the Finals Week

為什麼睡不著。

























看(複習)完了Harry Potter第六集，沒錯，在期末考週。唉，我看到Dumbledore死掉，還真的滿難過的，也想起當時看完這一集時多麼的想知道接下來會有什麼發展。當然，我現在依然想不起第七集在講啥，除了結局。

Ginny和Harry的戀情首次登場，我怎麼覺得他們比我現實中認識的情侶還要閃到我的感覺? 他們的故事讓我感到好孤單，真的好孤單啊... 幹，害我現在心情有點低落。

為什麼我就碰不到呢? 我就是碰不到，也找不到能讓我認真去愛的人。

2010 +1

唔，2010就在我24小時不眠的狀況下跨到2011。不過這次我原本打算是窩在家裡跟Summer、爆告、還有瑪奇一起跨年的。沒想到，衝著建國100年這美妙的紀念數字，我竟然跑去升旗了。因為升旗要很早起，所以我就乾脆不睡了，直接熬夜到出門。

感想：我再也不會去升旗了。

大概唯一有點感動到的部分是聽"奉獻"這首歌時...

長路奉獻給遠方　玫瑰奉獻給愛情
我拿什麼奉獻給你　我的愛人
白雲奉獻給草場　江河奉獻給海洋
我拿什麼奉獻給你　我的朋友

我拿什麼奉獻給你
我不停的問
我不停的找
不停的想~

白鴿奉獻給藍天　星光奉獻給長夜
我拿什麼奉獻給你　我的小孩
雨季奉獻給大地　歲月奉獻給季節
我拿什麼奉獻給你　我的爹娘

...這個歌詞真的太感人了，邊聽會邊回想起2010的許多種種。 Q_Q
