I got a haircut -- a slightly layered shag , that my stylist recommended. The only problem is, it doesn't look good by itself. I have to put effort into its styling and look. So I decided to try my hand at hot rollers instead of getting a perm, as I don't want it to be curly every day and hot rollers seemed like I could get the hang of it after watching about 10 hair setter/rollers youtube tutorials.
easier to see.
These three videos show how long it takes for a person to do it by themselves and some real results. I still have to figure out what products will work best for the look I want. It's tiring to put effort into your hair. I've only had the 1) ponytail 2) let down options for 2 decades.
I listened to Seo Taiji's latest tracks and really enjoyed their arrangements and his singing. Sometimes his choruses just soar. Here are some videos to sample. Moai
Let's all go to Easter Island!

These are the views from my office floor. I'll miss some of these. I'd miss them more if my cubicle was near a window. Haha.

I recently found out that the perfume that I've loved and been wearing for a good 5 years now (the same bottle) has been discontinued. Chanel Une Fleur de Chanel was light, smelled clean and flowery without being too strong or heavy. It's true that the scent didn't last long, but I loved having it on. It was a temporary product that has come and gone.
It was my first time watching an election debate, and was curious. I hadn't heard about it, but Corinn had put it on the the TV, so I made myself comfortable and listened closely. I don't follow politics, and didn't even know what VP candidate Biden looked like. Palin reminds me of Peggy Hill from the King of the Hill series. She has a speaking pace that is very distracting for me. She takes these noticable breaths after every few words. Every time she said the word "mom" I began to become tired of her. What little I know about her, alaska and hockey mom stuff, she'd mention it. Biden seemed like a smooth talker and became more lively as the debate continued. If I had to pick one to represent the nation as the Vice President, I know which one I would pick. Hopefully, I can catch the debates following this one. I think there are two more.
With this debate, I became more interested in the race. Sure it's late, but now I can hear the words straight from the candidates' mouths. And I think that is very effective for me.
A coworker of mine kept sending me pictures from this website in efforts to cheer me up. I guess I appear humorless at work.
After that coworker left, I decided to take a look since the pictures weren't so bad.
<< This WildC.A.T.S. theme song is great. I still don't know all the words. I watched this cartoon whenever I could. Zealot and Grifter were so cool.
This takes me back to middle school. nostalgic.
<< I used to think this was called Botmaster, instead of Bots Master. The base melody that runs through this pops up in my head every now and then for years. I wish they released this on DVD. When's the last time we saw a ninja robot? Another theme song I loved, but didn't know all the words to.
Maou is a japanese drama based on a korean drama, starring Arashi's Ohno Satoshi. I started watching it since a friend in Japan is also following the drama. It's got suspense, murder, and some supernatural stuff that easy to let slide after it starts to feel like it's really contributing to the story.
<< This opening theme song is great, too. Arashi's PV also ties in very nicely to the drama's feel.
I'm 9 episodes in and i'm hooked and ready to watch the ending. I hope the ending leaves me disappointed. Although it seems like I'm hardly ever satisfied with endings to dramas or animes or mangas. Anyway, here is a clip of the opening. You can see the characters at play. There seem to be a lot but it's easy to keep track of what's going on and who's who, with a good balance of what the viewer does and does not know. I haven't seen the korean drama that this is based off of, and don't plan to, so I've no comparisons to offer.
Fans of Ikuta Toma can also enjoy this one. Playing the "good cop" who runs around getting his strings pulled by the "Maou". I've never seen his acting, but it's not bad so far.
