I've been revisting so many lifetime loves recently. (^^) I should probably start studying for my make-up finals soon, but my uncle has an awesome movie collection.

He had Grand Canyon! I was so excited, and I finally saw Mary in it. I rewatched several wonderful bsg episodes. I also rewatched Underworld the other day, X2:X-men United yesterday, and I began re-watching The Phantom of the Opera today. I am still utterly fascinated by that storyline, though a bit altered from the original Leroux version by Webber. I believe my favorite version will probably alway's be in Susan Kay's multi-perspective Phantom, her own version with both combined Leroux's and Webber's influences. 

Two of my favorite scenes from the movie is above. (The choreography is utterly stunning.)

As for re-visiting great loves, my music collection is kind of getting a very strong workout, as well as re-reading beloved fics. The only thing I'm missing is a nice collection of books. I only have one with me at the moment, which I'm sort of afraid of finishing actually. It's a memoir, and it is quite fascinating. 

Oh! I'm also watching a Chinese TVB drama series with one of my favorite Chinese actors in it. I absolutely adore most of his work. He's pretty incredible and nicely intense.  And because I don't actually know how to embed correctly, the opening to one of my favorite dramas with him in it is the first vid above... (^^)"

EDIT: Uhmm... nevermind, embedding... I fail at it.

Yay for watching movies and listening to music and not studying (I still say it's too early to study for your finals, but *sigh* do what you must).

If you find any good books, let me know? I'm going on a binging spree (okay, that sounds wrong. you know what I mean. shhhh)

Oh, and what were you trying to embed? A youtube vid? Because that's not that hard.

Do I know what you mean? LOL! XD

And I'll try...

How!?!

Har har. *glare*

And lol, you were trying to embed a youtube vid? You just take the html code on the vid that says "embed" and I'm fairy sure when you're posting, since it's already html, you can just paste it entirely. It usually works for me.

Tried it... keeps on messing up. (;_;)

And what? *is innocent*

[amethysth.livejournal.com]

Uh huh. Sureeeeeeeee you are. *glares some more*

Your settings are on html, right? and not rtf or whatever the other options are?

[obsessive-a101.livejournal.com]

Yes. I am.

Uhmm... maybe? (^^)"""" I'll check and try again soon... XD

[amethysth.livejournal.com]

Ooo I want to see Grand Canyon *puts on list*

Also underworld is love! I love vampire movies ♥

She is so good (as always), and the concept surrounding it is... intriguing to a certain extent. (^_^) I would try to put it up for you... if I wasn't so technilogically incompetent, but best of luck finding it!

I know! I love underworld and the storyline, though I've never been too crazy about vampire movies. I was super-afraid of them when I was younger.
