I can't wait for January or yet I can't wait for Skins Season 4. Here's a preview of Season 4. The feature music is I Knew by Lightning Dust.


Here's a little tribute to my favorite ship Naomily:

Love Me If You Dare or Jeux D'Enfants is one of the most well-done romantic films I have seen. I wish I could understand French that well because at the last 10 minutes of the film my subtitles gave up on me. Julien and Sophie's love sprung from a game of truth or dare since they were kids and it went on until they were adults. It's such a twisted love story. I love that in the ending, the director made it like an open-ended question where in you can choose to interpret your own ending -- there's the happy ending and the one that is more realistic.

But what I really love is that cute boy Thibault Verhaeghe who played Julien. He's too adorable.
Julien à 8 ans: Friends are like eyeglasses. They make you look smart, but get scratched and then bore you. Luckily, sometimes, you get super cool glasses. Me... I've got Sophie!

I love the song, but the video not so much. There were some moments that Beyonce looked a bit uncomfortable. However, I really like the part where both of them danced. I just adore Lady GaGa! I just downloaded her new album, The Fame Monster and it sounds really good.

There are so many good albums coming out. I can't believe I missed this and Little Dragon's Machine Dreams. I'm jumping on the Miike Snow bandwagon. Oh why did I skim over this group's talent before? I'm familiar with the band's name because every blog mentions them, it's only now that I fully appreciate this bands' pure talent. Swedish music rules!

Last.fm lists similar artists: Passion Pit and Discovery. Both very good bands, but Miike Snow is quite different. Less drum machine and auto-tune. They remind me of an upbeat Bon Iver. Too good. I will play this on repeat.

P.S. Sometimes it's so hard to keep up with new music. Britney's 3 is average and repetitive. How did she get away with having "Peter, Paul & Mary" in the lyrics?

Parce que je leur aime. Here's their new video Shadows. Directed by David Lynch.



Au Revoir Simone is an electronic indie pop band from Williamsburg, Brooklyn, New York. I discovered them through a remix of Friendly Fires' Paris, and I downloaded their album and I just fell in love with it.

Before, I never really paid attention to the victims of typhoons in the Philippines but when you are the victim of the current Typhoon Ondoy, you feel empathy for the past victims you've just ignored. I am still thankful, that my family and I are safe.

It was the scariest experience of my life. I thought the water would come up to the second floor. My mom and I were able to save some stuff like photographs, the appliances and some goods from my grandfather's store but everything else was flooded. My brother was stuck in Lasalle yesterday and he just came home today.

 
Photos here... )We spent the whole day cleaning our house. It's almost back to normal. I hope the classes resumes this Wednesday, I'm not in the mood to study.

OMFG! Alice in Wonderland trailer. I can't wait. I really need to start editing my resume for tomorrow's career orientation. Boo.

I love Nouvelle Vague's Ever Fallen In Love. I clearly remember that The Stiff Dylans sang this in Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging.

Blood by The Middle East
They're from Townsville in Queensland, Australia. I really like this song, it's very folk. The guitars are awesome.

Love Song 2009 by Dent May & His Magnificent Ukulele
Such a cute song. Kinda reminds of I'm Yours but of course that another level of greatness.

Beaches and Friends (Hey Champ Remix) by French Horn Rebellion
A chill song. Nowadays, I'm drifting to that kind of music, a bit dance-y but still relaxed. I suck at expressing what it sounds like but it's really good.

Lisztomania (Classixx Remix) by Phoenix
I really like Phoenix but the original version of Lisztomania I didn't like so much. So this remix really did me a favor. It made the song better for me.

Lights Out (Tepr Emo Remix) by Santogold
Awesome! Got this from Bryanboy.

A Fifth of Beethoven (Soulwax Remix) by Walter Murphy & The Big Apple Band
Lovely twist on a classic. I love it so much even though there's a lack of lyrics.

If you want to listen to some of it. Visit my hypem page.

I can't stop listening to Ciara's Work (Poker Face Remix). I really didn't like the original and I was ready to give up on Ciara but when I listened to this remix, wow I just loved it instantly. Brilliant! Download HERE

Bitch, you better work!

Passion Pit | To Kingdom Come from EFFIN' MEGA VIDEOS on Vimeo.

</div>
To Kingdom Come is Passion Pit's new single. I love this song but I personally prefer Let Your Love Grow. The video, however, is really cute with all the birds flying in the background. I'm a sucker for blue skies, birds, balloons, buttons, cigarettes and lips. Weird but I find those fascinating.

Cheers!

P.S. HBP was superb, it had its moments. Why am I so attached to Harry/Hermione? I love Rupert and his toned-arms.

But being meticulous, this is going to take a long time to finish. We're half-way through the year. It's time to compile some albums that I like and don't like. Screw me, I have a French test tomorrow so yeah, whatevs. I'll study later. Sorry no download links, I usually download in torrents or mediafire.com

Bryanboy posted this a long ago but I really like the song and I just found the translation of the song and it's very kinky. Make The Girl Dance's Baby Baby Baby is quite addicting.

Cobra Starship and Leighton Meester collaboration
is the best ever. I've been listening to the song constantly. I can't wait for the music video. I saw the stills and they're awesome.

Gabe Saporta is looking sexy.

More sexiness over here. Scans of 2 Magazine which features Penn Badgely. Taken from OHLALA Mag. Although I prefer the GQ shoot, this is hot too.

I really like the idea of being in the field of foreign service but I think I would also like to pursue other things that I know I'm good at like graphic designing, a little bit of photography. I really think I should be doing great things like Mark Weaver.

Here are some of his work, taken from the set Make Something Cool Everyday:
  



Awesome, right?

And more awesome-ness coming from Little Boots (Electro-pop!). I first heard her last year through a mix of Stuck on Repeat. She'll release her album this June and I can't wait. For now, I'll just leave you with a video of New In Town (her new single) Live with Jools Holland.

If you're looking for Winter Songs, this is not it. It's a compilation of songs from my favorite female artists. Since, I can't give gifts to everyone, this is my gift to you. Everything is a must download, that's why they're here. It took me 3 days to complete and polish the mixtape. So Cheers!!!




Track #s 1-5 are upbeat songs. Track #s 6-11 are slow songs. Track #s 12-20 are upbeat songs.

Pardon the long post.

Although some people think Hip Hop gets repetitive, it's nice to dance to it or bob your head to it. Whatever, just download everything.

Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?qmeatn0nyeu

Song: Show Out
Artist: DJ Unk
Personal Comments: Out of all the tracks from Unk's new album Second Season this is by far the best, the others are boring, ugly and repetitive. Anyway, Walk It Out is still my fave hit from Unk.
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?if2tkmyovmg

Song: Swing

Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?tyomqq1zlqr

Song: Get The Feeling
Artist: The D.E.Y.
Personal Comments: This was supposed to be the band's first single but they change it to Give You The World, this song is nothing like Give You The World or that mushy R&B with rap thing. It's straight dance track with hot lyrics. This song never gets old even though it came out last year.
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?gedd4wh02q2

Song: Freeze

Personal Comments: The only reason why this song is hot is because of Chris Brown. I can't wait for Sunday.

Artist: Santogold, Julian Casablancas and Pharrell Williams
Personal Comments: SANTOGOLD!!! I love you. Pharrell Williams is my demi-god, so you need to worship this track. MUST DOWNLOAD. This song will make you dance, dance, dance.

I adore listening to music, everyone knows that. I promised my friends that I would post music something not mainstream but incredibly beautiful and something new and something really cheerful.

The first one is not cheerful but it's current fave so download it.
Song: Wonderwall (Oasis Cover)
Artist: Ryan Adams
Personal Comments: If you don't have this, you're missing a lot. Ryan Adam's cover is probably one of the best covers.
