Top Five Films of 2009
Obviously these don’t include the films which I haven’t seen, so if you’re wondering why I didn’t include, oh say, Up in the Air, The Princess and the Frog, or Fantastic Mr. Fox here, then please do understand.
The Hurt Locker: One of the most intense and powerful films I have seen to date. It keeps you on edge every time and never misses or lacks in anything. From the impeccable direction...

Top Five Albums of 2009
Merriweather Post Pavilion - Animal Collective: The hype surrounding this album is no doubt skeptical, but believe me, it’s legit. Merriweather Post Pavilion is a brilliant production of experimental, cinematic music that still sounds like instrumentation you’ve known your whole life. It’s the kind of music that doesn’t simply make you think; it makes you imagine. It’s continually interesting, a...

Top Five Obsessions of 2009
Muse: I can’t even begin to describe where my obsession for Muse comes from, and I don’t even want to try to make sense and articulated thoughts out of it. It’s just, IDK, LOVE. LMAO.
Tumblr: I don’t think I’ve had an internet obsession since Neopets. XD Which was not too long ago, but it’s been a significant while. XD I love Tumblr because it’s just such a wonderful, beautiful, and fun place of...

Top Five Famous People of 2009
This is based on … nothing consistent LOL. Just how much they meant to me this year.
Matthew Bellamy: The man is a fucking genius. Nuff said. (Oh yeah, and he’s the guy from Muse. So if you know me well enough, then you probably already know why he’s first here.)
Michael Jackson: I don’t remember ever crying that much for anyone’s death before. RIP.
Jason Reitman: How does he...

After watching High Fidelity and seeing how the year is close to an end.. I got inspired to do this. :)) Today is for film. Tomorrow would be for music. Then after that, television.
UGH. I HATE YOU, NICOLE CANSECO. You totally stole my idea for my year-ender! DX WAH.

Pride, in the Name of Love
I cannot contain myself. I know I sound like an insane, obsessed teenager without a social life right now, but I just can’t help myself.
I knew that after performing on Saturday Night Live, Muse would gain at least some new fans from America. That after years of their music being shunned and hated and misunderstood by the American people, they would finally come through - at least some.

I believe that what people call God is something in all of us.

Duets
Aw, my brother and I just played Johann Pachelbel’s Canon in D together. I was on piano; he on violin.
And we both suck, ROFL.

Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
