You Don't Know Me

I love Regina Spektor, pictured above. Who doesn't? She's adorable.
I also love Ben Folds.
So I of course absolutely adore a song where they sing together. Especially if the song is catchy and cute.

Once you kill a cow, you gotta make a burger.

My happy was missing for a while, but it's back now.
And Lady GaGa's Telephone video just begs to be talked about.
(I know Beyonce is in it too, but it really is Lady GaGa's video.)

Now, I loved it, naturally, but I would not recommend watching it if you have anything against:
Violence
Lesbianism
Lack of Pants
Awkward dialogue
Mass murder
Blatant product placement
Things that don't really make sense

...Otherwise, it was kind of wonderful. And even looking past the video, the song is really good too. And Beyonce is fierce, even though GaGa tends to overshadow her.

Love Me Dead

I'm a big fan of Ludo right now.

Their songs are so catchy. (:

Sorry I'm not being very wordy lately. Homework beckons. D:

Winter's On The Wing

So sorry. My "happy" isn't "daily" so much as it is "whenever-I-feel-like-it."

On the plus side, it feels almost like spring. :)

At Last

At last.

The moment I've been waiting for since last summer.

I saw Alice in Wonderland the moment it came out.

And am thus operating on three hours of sleep.

But it was so worth it.

It was like, everyone I love, plus every Tim Burton stereotype, plus a lot of sexy voices and pretty animation, all rolled into one dazzling film.

But let's focus on my favorite bits, shall we?

1. Helena. Oh, Helena. She is the perfect Red Queen. And the Red Queen is a perfect character. I actually legitimately pitied her, but that could just be my I-love-Helena bias. But she was definitely one of those characters that you love to hate.

2. Johnny. He's known for the insane roles, but the Mad Hatter may have been the most insane of them all. Equal parts funny, sweet, scary, and sad, with an impeccable sense of dress and makeup.

3. I was pretty attracted to the Cheshire Cat. His voice was so smooth and sexy. And whenever he showed up, the scene just got a lot cooler. Same goes for Tweedledee and Tweedledum; they were comic relief in a not-annoying way, plus they had cool accents.

4. Alan Rickman as the caterpillar? His voice is ideal for everything.

5. Crispin Glover's character, Stayne, was also pretty wonderful.

6. Wonderland! I mean, I'm not one of those people who are really into well-animated things, but all the scenery was gorgeous. And very Burton-y.

7. I just this second found out that Timothy Spall was in it, as Bayard. I do love him too.

8. I know Tim has a habit of casting the EXACT SAME PEOPLE in all of his movies, but it was acutally a good thing because each actor was so indisputably right for their role. Which reminds me...

9. Anne Hathaway. I'm kind of in love with her. She was too funny as the White Queen, and a perfect balance with Helena's craziness.

10. The whole bit with the Jabberwocky. First of all, I loved Johnny's sexycreepy recitation of the classic Jabberwocky poem. I'm also a fan of the Jabberwocky's unexpectedly nice voice, courtesy of Christopher Lee.

In conclusion, everything was just so right, because Tim Burton is amazing, and I loved it.

P.S. MPAA says that Alice is rated PG for "fantasy action/violence involving scary images and situations, and for a smoking caterpillar." XD

Off With Her Head!

There is no limit to the amount of times I'm going to mention Alice In Wonderland, is there?
At any rate, I bought my tickets today.
And it's really exciting. :D
And since I don't have the energy to write anything, please enjoy this picture of Helena Bonham Carter and her gorgeous crazy hair.

How Long Have You Been 17?

I challenge even the most die-hard Robert-Pattinson-Team-Edward fan to find fault in this adorably accurate Edward Zombie sock puppet I discovered on Etsy (which is a fantastic website, by the way). Maybe I'm just biased, but I like this one better than the real thing. Don't get me wrong, I do like Robert's personality, but he isn't really a looker. (Come on, though. The puppet has RPatz hair and you know it.)
