Book: Show us a book you started reading but never finished.
It's not that these books are unbearable to read per se, it's more the
fact that I have the attention span of a gnat. And textbooks and course readers and lecture notes take priority these days. I will eventually
finish them though. I swear!
Everything is Illuminated I've been trying to read for a good year now at least. I've almost finished it a couple times, the closest I came was last year during my reading week trip to Mexico. Then school and work started up again and I had to put it aside for months. It's a pretty dense book in terms of events so it's not just something I can pick up where I left off, I always have to start from somewhere near the beginning to reacquaint myself. The one phrase I semi-regularly utilize from the book is "Stop spleening me!", but only around my coworker Elan cos I know she's read the book and gets what it means. Elan was the one who lent me Time Traveler's Wife... I guess basically what I'm getting at is she's my idol and my life goal is to read all the cool books she has read. Haha.
Video: Show us a clip from your current favorite TV show
I wouldn't say Scrubs is my favorite TV show but it's pretty much the only half-hour show that'll make me laugh guaranteed. And well, Zach Braff is cute and all but Turk..
Video: Show us a great music video.
At first I was going to post the Michael and Janet video for "Scream", mostly because I remember when I was little and it first came out it only played in between shows on one of the cable networks and I'd always wait patiently for it to come on, because really? Who cannot resist both Jacksons grabbing their crotches in black shiny PVC outfits? I know that to this day whenever I see the video, I still have trouble keeping my pants on.
But the real video that always gets me is Everlong. Another one of those videos that I'd patiently wait for MuchMusic to play, you know um, back when they played videos. Those of you who've seen Science of Sleep know that this video is sort of a precursor to the movie. I'm a big Michel Gondry fan, but I'm also a fan of Foo Fighters videos.. Learn to Fly is another one that I quite enjoy.. I think I have a men dressed in drag/fat-suits fetish.I also wanted an excuse to post the acoustic version. One of the greatest love songs ever, do we agree? Good.
