Meaningless Babbling Bumbling Band of Baboons...

I have this need to write something today, but I just don't know what to write about... What to do, what to do. 

Starting this meaningless post, I can tell you all that the weather has been as bad as can be... Everything is grey and boring, and it's been raining cats and dogs for almost the entire day.... and with this said, things will probably get worse just because it can, so later tonight it will snow all while the thunder roars and a tornado blows past.

While I'm writing this, I was thinking maybe I could find a "30 Day Challenge" of some kind to entertain myself with... but what to choose. I've recently did one on my tumblr about Doctor Who, so that one would be boring to do again.. at least for me.
Oh well, I'll keep thinking about it.

Thanks to one of my friend I've found a new obsession.
The game; OSU!
I promise, it's dangerous! play it ONCE and you will be stuck for eternity!

If you wanna try it out, you can find it on https://osu.ppy.sh/

The first thing you will have to do is make a account  then you will need to download the game. When you've done that you can start to search for songs to download. Everything is free, and everything is made by fans for fans, so some songs are better and some... not so good....

but hey, now you're probably wondering what the hell I'm talking about. So a short explanation is that "osu" is a game were you will use the computer mouse to click on round thingy things along with the rhythm of the music/song that you've chosen to play. (dont worry, you will have a "how to play" song when you've downloaded the game, and there you will learn the basics.

Sadly (for some people) there are A LOT of anime music, and asian songs... but there are some other; like "call me maybe" and other songs in English, so fear not!

Here is a vid that can show you a bit what osu is, if my rambling wasn't enough explanation for you (^_^)
Try it out, but be beware, there is a good chance you will be as stuck as I am in the game! if you wanna add me as friend or just see what I'm up to on the game, my username is "swedenarashifan"

Have fun!!

Top 6 Asian Dramas! (atm)

Hi! I'm doing this as a request from a friend!!

1. On this place is without doubt "ichi rittoru no namida" (aka. "One Litre Of Tears")
The reason is simple. The story, the acting and the messages! This is a drama I wish all people watched at least ONE time, because it can give a lot of strength and hope! And it feels good to cry sometimes, and you will without any doubt what so ever, cry your eyes out while watching this!

The following ones are in no special order:

2. "Gokusen". ALL of them! I've lost count on how many times exactly!  
Reason; the humor, the message, the boys! (yes I know I'm shallow that way! *no regret*), the acting and just because I really love the plot!

3. "Rookies". Yet again, I've watched this too many times, so I've lost count!
Reason is the same as "Gokusen"

4. "nobuta wo purodyuusu". LOVE THIS!
Reason? IT's FREA*IN' HILARIOUS!  if you want a fun, easy going drama, this is one for you!

5. "The 1st Shop Of Coffee Prince".
Reason; the romance, the boys (yep, again!) the acting and the plot!

6. "Shut Up: Flower Boy Band"
Reason: I can't lie! THE BOYS! and THE MUSIC! and I love the plot... even though ONE thing  surprised the H*LL out of me, but I won't reveal that spoiler!


Now, one thing you need to know; these are my favorites as of right now! Until I found a new one that amaze me beyond comprehension. BUT one thing is for sure, there has not been ONE so far that has been a rival to "ichi rittoru no namida". But someday there might be, who knows! 

That's all for today! A short post, but if you wanna know more just ask me in a comment!

The Intouchables

Ok ok, I know. Last time I said I would write about the Undisputed movies or the Ip-man movies, but today I watched this amazing movie with my family. I just felt that I needed to write some words about it. 

The movie we watched is called "The Intouchables" (aka. "Untouchable". aka. "En Oväntad Vänskap"). It's a French movie about the unexpected friendship between a man; that became a quadriplegic* from a paragliding accident, and his caretaker; a young man that just gotten out from prison.


Now don't get scared away because it's French, you won't even notice that it's in a language that you may not understand. The movie is filled with comic, and you will laugh soo many times! And there is a few words in the beginning that makes the whole movie a tad bit better, and makes your heart feel happy, and that brightens your day. 
Because even through the darker days that is filled with blood and pain and sadness, days when people looses someone that they hold close to their heart, there is still hope. And that hope lives in the way we take care of each other. And the words that makes you look at the movie in a different way is; "Based on a True story".

Decisions decisions...

I've made up my mind, finally! I'm gonna continue to write this blog in English! So I'm gonna say right from this moment, that I'm soooo sorry for all future slaughtering of a old and beautiful language, 'cause I'm probably gonna end up using more of a... 
fangirl-squeaking/squealing-(hopefully)English-sounding/slash/Japanese-and-Swedish-maybe-even-sometimes-South-Korean-and-a-pinch-of-Gallifreyan-and-emotion-explaining-gif's-all-of-which-is-mixed-with-a-dash-of-pure-me'ness...tongue... *sigh*

And if you all understood that new and very dictionary 'accurate word, that I absolutely did NOT just make up:

CONGRATULATION! 
You have all passed the test ("I will diminish, and go into the West, and remain Galadriel"... yeah 'cause that's what I actually said out loud after writing the words: "passed the test") *sigh, I know I'm crazy, sue me!*

so.. if I haven't lost all my readers after this, let the slaughtering begin!

Oh, and for all you non-Swedish-speaker...reader..... understand'er...... * awkward silence while bug's chirp loudly* ... *cough* Just ask, if there is ANY old post that you want me to re-do in English, and I will be MORE than happy to do so!

So 'til my next update, which will hopefully be either about the movies Undisputed 2 & 3 or Ip Man 1 & 2,

"May the odds be ever in your favor"

xoxo

Struck By Lightning



Dagens inlägg är om en film som jag såg dagen innan julafton. 
Den heter Struck by Lightning och handlar om Carson Phillips som, efter att ha blivit träffad av blixten, berättar för oss om sitt liv och hur han utpressar sina klasskamrater till att skriva i hans litterära tidsskrift.
Tidningen försöker han skriva för att öka sina chanser att komma in på Northwestern University med drömmen att bli den yngsta redaktören för "The New Yorker". 

Jag måste säga att jag är väldigt imponerad av den här filmen. Jag kan ärligt säga att jag är en aning biased över den här filmen, då Chris Colfer inte bara spelar Carson i filmens huvudkaraktär, utan han skrev också manuset. Men den är VERKLIGEN bra. och jag tycker absolut att folk borde se den. 

Chris Colfer, som spelar min favorit karaktär i serien "Glee"; Kurt Hummel, visar med den här filmen att han är mer än kapabel till att spela en roll som är så... gay och... flamboyant (i brist på andra ord) som Kurt är. Jag tror att den här filmen kan hjälpa honom få större chanser till fler roller efter glee, som är mer varierande. 

Filmen är också fylld med en massa härlig sarkasm, ironi och en väldigt annorlunda humor som faktiskt passar mig som handen i handsken. Men trots detta är handlingen allvarlig och mörk, och jag kommer på mig själv flera gånger med tårar i ögonen som är på väg att svämma över. 

Trailer:



“Life comes at you fast. It runs through your body and tries to escape and be expressed in any way possible. It’s a lot like... lightning.”
