Admit it: we were all guilty of this in one time or another! Somehow, Hermione as a bad writer sounds just so true, nee!

Thank God for iTunes! I've finally converted the band's latest album into MP3s! I'm leaving the links here for a week before I pull them down.
I don't think Sugar Hiccup's popular outside the country...they call themselves "the alternative of alternative rock." Speaks for their work! Listen in to understand what I mean.
Sugar Hiccup - D.O.T.S.
Sugar Hiccup - Una Parola
Sugar Hiccup - Bleed
Sugar Hiccup - Echo & Gab
Sugar Hiccup - ...And Breeze
Sugar Hiccup - Cartwheel Joy
Sugar Hiccup - Feel
Sugar Hiccup - Trust
Sugar Hiccup - Barn
Sugar Hiccup - In Fear

[random] LSS, 80's style
Who has an mp3 of this song, "Holding Out For A Hero" by Bonnie Tyler?
Where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods?
Where's the great white Hercules to fight the rising odds?
Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night I toss and I turn and I dream of what i need
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night
he's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast
and gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light
He's gotta be sure and he's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
Larger than life
Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasies
Somewhere just beyond my reach
There's someone reaching back for me
Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
It's gonna take a Superman to sweep me off my feet
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night
he's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast
and gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light
He's gotta be sure and he's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
Larger than life
I the mountains neath the heavens above
Out where the lightning strikes the sea
I can swear that there's someone somewhere watching me
Through the wind and the chill and the rain
and the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night
he's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast
and gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light
He's gotta be sure and he's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
Larger than life

Dedicated not to Ferds, who is a good friend of mine, but certainly not my type of guy.
This is for a certain person who I will call Y-san. No description, except that he never fails to make me smile.
Mamma Mia
by ABBA
I've been cheated by you since I don't know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn?
I don't know how but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything, o-o-o-oh
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I've missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know,
My my, I could never let you go.
I've been angry and sad about the things that you do
I can't count all the times that Ive told you were through
And when you go, when you slam the door
I think you know that you won't be away too long
You know that I'm not that strong.
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything, o-o-o-oh
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I've missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, even if I say
Bye bye, leave me now or never
Mamma mia, it's a game we play
Bye bye doesn't mean forever
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I've missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go
Mamma mia, now I really know
My my, I could never let you go

[coloring practice] brunette child with green eyes
I just like the way she looks out from the screen with wide, knowing eyes and a small smile.

[sketch practice #01] back view of chemie the white-cat-with-a-black-smudge-on-left-ear-and-tail. Forgive me, I'm still trying out the pen-tablet using Photoshop CS, an ornery cat who wouldn't stay still, and hands which have gone beyond exhaustion.

[random] news or the lack of it
There's not much news, except that people close to me have been ending up in hospitals lately. First one's Dr. G., who was confined in a hospital with his baby Erin-chan because of gastroenteritis early last week. His absense resulted in me taking over the Science and Society class, boring/blathering about the practice of science.
Next one was scarier--my mom had high fever for 3 days, without any sign of cough nor cold. Last Friday, my bro brought her to World Citi for a checkup, and the initial finding was dengue (tourniquet test), so she was confined there. I spent two nights sleeping on a narrow but fluffy sofa, watching over her. Today, she was discharged--the dengue-blot test was negative.
Hopefully, I didn't bungle anything with the Science and Society class. As for the housework...leaves much to be desired. >.>

[lyrics] (cynthia alexander) comfort in your strangeness
Woke up this morning
I was staring at the ceiling cracks
And roadmaps and landscapes and highways
I have seen
I have been
To places far and deep in my mind only to find
Comfort in your strangeness
Or moving shadows when I call the wind by name
Rushing firewater in the dark of a cloud
I have seen I have been
To places far and deep in my mind only to find
Comfort in your strangeness
We are slaves to the crimes we commit
In fits of passion we shame
We are nothing we are nothing we are nothing we are
Nothing
But the dust on your feet
Dying to be born again
Singing ether water fire singing earth singing air
I have seen I have been
To places far and deep in my mind only to find
Comfort in your strangeness
I have seen I have been
To places far and deep in my mind only to find
Comfort in your strangeness
Woke up this morning
I was staring at the ceiling cracks
And roadmaps and landscapes and highways
I have seen
I have been
To places far and deep in my mind only to find
Comfort in your strangeness
Or moving shadows when I call the wind by name
Rushing firewater in the dark of a cloud
I have seen I have been
To places far and deep in my mind only to find
Comfort in your strangeness
We are slaves to the crimes we commit
In fits of passion we shame
We are nothing we are nothing we are nothing we are
Nothing
But the dust on your feet
Dying to be born again
Singing ether water fire singing earth singing air
I have seen I have been
To places far and deep in my mind only to find
Comfort in your strangeness
I have seen I have been
To places far and deep in my mind only to find
Comfort in your strangeness
