Last Alliance *_*

listening to: Last Alliance - Maboroshi Memory
mood: upbeat

Gah, I was supposed to blog about Last Alliance eons ago, but. >.<

At least this goes to show that my love for Last Alliance isn't mere infatuation. Let me start narrating my love affair for this J-rock band by saying this:

HOMGWTHBBQ LAST ALLIANCE!!11!

It all really started when I got hooked on Ouran Host Club. I watched the anime in two sittings, and at first I really enjoyed listening to both the opening and ending songs (Sakura Kiss and Shissou). After a while I started skipping Sakura Kiss and just listened to Shissou.

I immediatley loved Shissou, especially when they used it as the ringtone of the twins in one of the episodes (ep. 15 I think?). The beat, the feel, rhythm and lyrics of the song was great. I was addicted to it. XD Thus, I started my quest for more LA songs.

I found Maboroshi Memory, which is my current fave. And I got a chance to listen to their other songs as well, like: Rebel Fire, Green Sunlight, Gray End and Break A Mirror. I loved all even if I just listened to them once.

I'm now on a downloading spree. :D

If you wanna listen to Last Alliance (and I recommend that you do! They may be doing rock songs but they're really easy on the ears and you'll be amazed by the awesome guitars and drums. And the lyrics speak to your heart. Really.), here's where I'm currently downloading their songs: http://kuronosubeta.livejournal.com/4262.html

Listen to Shissou, Maboroshi Memory, Equal Reason and Gray End-- you won't be disappointed.

I know it's sembreak and all, so you'd think that I should find time to update my blog. Well, I did have time, but I spent it on scanning, editing and uploading my plates to DeviantArt. Please do take a look if you've got time to spare: http://autumnsnow.deviantart.com/. Thank you! ^_^

4 in the morning

listening to: 4 in the Morning - Gwen Stefani
mood: subdued

I've never been a big fan of Gwen Stefani, but I really really like some of her songs. The first song of hers which really captivated me (and is still a favorite up to now) is Don't Speak. Then there are those songs which are just irritating, or pointless, perhaps both, but is a bit amusing and new that somehow I'll end up liking it anyway. Like Wind it Up, and The Sweet Escape. The latter was easy to like since my sisters were always listening to it, but the former I am still wary of.

When I first saw the video of 4 in the Morning, I immediatley liked it. She just looked beautiful in a very natural and heartbreaking way. The music itself and the lyrics quickly pulled at my heart strings as well.

And all I know is you’ve got to give me everything
Nothing less 'cause you know I give you all of me .

And how true.

Or perhaps I fell in love with the song because it goes well with what I'm feeling at moment, given the recent event that happened. I'm just... sad.

It's been raining for a few days now. The rain was torrential last night. According to the weathermen, it's bye-bye summer. I know I've been cursing the heat for the past months, and I'm finally getting what I want (which is cool weather), but somehow I want the sunshine again. The rain is adding to my depression. I realized that the gray and bleak colors I am greeted with during the afternoon are not at all uplifting. (Of course they're not. Silly.) I wanted a subdued, cool, calm environment. Not one that would inspire me to be more lethargic than I already am.

Home isn't as bright as summer-y as before, too.

I'm looking forward to classes--maybe because I've got too much time on my hands, and I'm spending most of those precious minutes thinking. Just thinking. And too much thinking is bad. Everything in excess is bad. I've done some bumming around as well but that only added to my lack of productivity, which added to my thinking list.

By the time classes kick in, I'll be swamped with assigments, school stuff and work to think about life. I'll be busy, busy, busy and I like that. No time to get depressed.

Forgive me, the escapist in me is awakening again.
