Tick tack toe, you’re fitting into place

February 19, 2008

 

 Yes, and now I finally blog at ease in my new blog. I love the template I’ve picked out, I can modify it as soon as I get the urge to and it can all be done on the same page! Calliope rocks. Until I can find a reason for it to suck that is. Hee.

I have moved for good and Ashyville is now open proper for reading. There are some teeny tweaks I need to adjust here and there but nothing major. Most of the widgets at the side have been added. And check the audio page for music I listen to! I haven’t uploaded much yet, just about 2 songs I guess but well, now I can share more and will not have to resort to a playlist hosted on some other site like Project Playlist. Tho I will still use Imeem for music befitting of a post that deserves special mention =D

 

And the reason I took soo incredibly long to get started on a proper post on this site…well, let’s say something fantabulous distracted me

  

 

    

 Yes. I am, without a doubt, incredibly addicted to this series particularly since I can stream all 9 episodes of the first season on Fanpop

 

 

Well, the series is basically about a piemaker named Ned (Lee Pace) who has the gift of being able to revive the dead by a mere touch of his finger. But as he discovers his powers, he realises one more thing that one touch, will revive the dead soul. But if the person isn’t touched within a minute, someone else in close proximity dies, to sorta balance out the whole birth-death thing. And it’s a completely random selection. The way the story is told is what gets to me and probably the most attractive part of the entire thing. There’s a narrator who tells the story like a fairy-tale making it a real dramedy and the way the story’s told, like at the beginning, the audience is told of how Ned became the person he is, what troubled past he had. It seems very Roald Dahl-ish and the sarcasm is amazing. My favourite character’s Emerson Cod =D

 

 

Who plays the detective that discovered Ned’s powers and gets him to help him solve murder cases by touching the murder victims and asking them who killed em.

 

Smart leh? 

 

Also, to quote Wonderboy. . .

 And what’s great about it is that the show doesn’t treat the audience like dumbaseses, "

 

 

 Let’s see. What else have I been up to?

 

 I caught up with the episodes I missed on fanpop for this one:

 

What can I say, I wanted to see what happened to all of em after the explosion. And well, I’m just as hooked second season around.

 

Series have very short-lived life spans of interest with me. Like how I got hooked onto BSG and the interest died midseason 2. Sigh. Then there was Grey’s Anatomy and House. But i stopped watching GA after everyone started shagging each other and House when I couldn’t get my hand on episodes from season 4. Tho I watched a few vids with Hugh Laurie in it, one being a song he sang which I thought was hilarious in a stupid way.

 

 

Haha! 

And I’m sleeping late again -_-

Although tomorrow brings more promise, I’m meeting up with Prav — we have SO much to talk about! — to hopefully get some tips on first year at uni and prep myself for it. My last few days of hols are coming to a sad end, I start university next week and tomorrow after taking Grandma to the clinic for her eye checkup, I’m dashing off to Midvalley to get my pencil skirt and pinstriped pants. Yes, uni requires formal wear which means…

 

No jeans.

 

 *cries*

 

More to come later, I totally lost my mojo to blog proper after watching all those episodes =D
