Happy Independence Day

Yoshi — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 14:00:33 +0000

Well, hopefully everyone is having a safe and fun holiday. Happy July 4th, everyone! Let’s make sure we’re careful and try to keep the activities to a safe level. :D Oh and for those of you who didn’t know, a lot of fireworks are illegal in Washington. Who knew! Hopefully fire season this year won’t be [...]

New Moon

Yoshi — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 06:14:01 +0000

I’ve completed New Moon, the 2nd book in the Twilight Saga by Stephanie Meyer. There are spoilers beyond the bump, so if you haven’t read them (who hasn’t, right?) and don’t want to get any spoilers, don’t go beyond! Ok, first of all, this was my least favorite book. To me, the only that saved it [...]

Twilight the book – reviewed

Yoshi — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 00:12:59 +0000

Ok, so I finally got around to finishing the book. It was a pretty easy read and I’m almost glad I’m done with it so I can finally see the movie (no, I haven’t watched it yet) and to get to the other books. There are spoilers here so I will tell you to stop [...]

Twilight

Yoshi — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 08:10:15 +0000

So after Meesh has now completed reading all the books in the Twilight series, it’s now left to me to go ahead and read them. Because I’m such a purist sometimes, I have to note that I still have not seen the movie. But the previews for the next movie peaked my interest. If there’s [...]

Up, up and away!

Yoshi — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 04:39:09 +0000

So last weekend, we went and saw the movie Up. We went to see it in 3D. I have to admit that it wasn’t anything special in 3D. But I thought it was a pretty good movie. It gave you the feel good feeling at the end. And no, I won’t give away any spoilers. If [...]

Donations for loved ones

Yoshi — Wed, 27 May 2009 06:51:51 +0000

As most or all of you might know, my dear friend Tiggerprr’s (Ammy) husband (Ken Theobald) just recently passed away. Surviving him are my friend and 3 of their children. Times are tough. Medical bills pile up. They could use your help. Without Ken, they now have no benefits, and must pay out of pocket [...]

RIP Ken Theobald

Yoshi — Fri, 22 May 2009 22:39:58 +0000

I remember once going up to Chicago to see Eddie Izzard. We stayed up in a Residence Inn. I don’t remember if we stayed the night after or before the concert. But regardless it was a good time. It was me, cybr, ken, Tiggerprr and ashlyn. We had such an awesome time I loved it. [...]

Ugh Indeed

Yoshi — Wed, 20 May 2009 07:42:28 +0000

Just wanted to let everyone know it might be quiet around here for a while. A close friend passed away and things just suck right now. So it might get quiet for a short bit while I stew.

Boss

Yoshi — Sun, 17 May 2009 07:59:53 +0000

So my other japanese dorama of the season has got to be BOSS. It stars Amami Yuki and Takenouchi Yutaka. Both are definitely favorite actors of mine. I’ll watch a dorama only because they’re in it. I know my mom is a HUGE Takenouchi fan, and I always give her a hard time about her [...]

Hell’s Kitchen Season Finale

Yoshi — Sat, 16 May 2009 14:00:45 +0000

Ok, so the season finale of Hell’s Kitchen is now complete and once again I’m surprised by the results. Sorry no spoilers here since some of you haven’t seen the final episode yet (*cough* ocB). However, I was pleased to see that past winners of Hell’s Kitchen did make it to the finale and a Hell’s [...]
