What do Jake Gyllenhaal, Queen and The Knife all have in common??
Hello readers (which I believe includes only me? haha..)~
I am so unbelievably sleepy right now seeing that it is almost 12:00 but that isn't going to stop me from posting. I just finished watching Queen in concert with my roomie Erin and her dad and we pretty much sang ourselves hoarse! Sometimes there is nothing like spilling out your musical guts now and then, even if you can't sing worth a lick. Included on the DVD are tons of hits including Who Wants to Live Forever (the ultimate tear jerker), We Will Rock You (not so keen on that one), We Are The Champions, as well as a whole bunch of others I was unfamilar with but enjoyed anyway. Understanding what Freddie Mercury is singing is a formidable task in itself so whenever I can't make out the lyrics, I make up my own or mumble along in what sounds like convincing English. It was a nice way to end off these eight months since Erin's dad is heading off to Toronto tomorrow and won't be around to see me off, and I don't know how much Erin will be around the next two days. I'm not overly depressed - actually, since coming to university, parting with people you grow close to has become an every day kind of thing so you become desensitized to it. And there will always be another day when I can come back to visit and we can watch Queen all over again :-) 
I have also had a very insignificant change of heart with regard to Heath Ledger...! After reading about some of the brawls he has been in, my affections have (despite my best efforts) switched over to...gasp...Jake Gyllenhaal. I always swore to resist those puppy dog eyes but somehow my mouse, which sometimes seems to have a mind of its own, has been drifting toward sites about him >:( *slapping self* Yes...I know all of you are thrilled to hear it...haha...(I know Yuka will be!!)Oh...and if anyone gets the chance, listen to the song Marble House by The Knife. Apparently, they are a Swedish band but they sing in English. The style is comparable to Eastern European techno with an awesome slow dance beat. Great lyrics too..."some things I do for money, some things I do for freeee" *dances*
PS: The answer to the above question is that I love all three! :-P
PPS: Thank you, Trin, for reading! I don't feel so alone anymore...*sniff* hehe :-)

Hi Heather,
Read your blog (just figured out it was there). Feel free to do your own laundry whenever you want to and keep your room messy. I hand it over to you - ha! ha! You can do mine as well if you would like.
I quite like Jake myself after seeing him in "Day After Tomorrow". I think he will be one of the big "Hollywood stars" of tomorrow.
By the way, Jeff and Beau Bridges Dad is Lorne Bridges, who was a very popular actor in his time, and played the fitness freak Mr.Mandelbaum in the Seinfeld series.
Well enough, we will be seeing you tomorrow.Good luck on the exam. Love Mum
I'll blast every Knife song I have when you're moving out.. as a tribute.
-The Other Side of the Wall Guy.
Hi Mum - no way in hell I am doing YOUR laundry!! :P 'Sides, the laundry machine at Erin's house is so much easier to use! Hehe. Yeah, I knew that Lloyd Bridges is Beau Bridges dad but it didn't click that my wonderful Jeff Bridges could be related to them. And yes...Jake is hot...I don't know why I didn't see it before. He needs to do away with the moustashe though...
Hey-lo Mark! Yes! I'd love that - blast every song you've got since my PC will be disconnected leaving me with no music....BTW your blog is very angry :P (Hence the title I guess??)
Ahh you're welcome Heather! ... I get honorable mention on your journal ^_^ hehe
I just noticed you have a blog! Jake Gyllenhaal is cool, he did a great job in Brokeback Mountain! He's awesome in Donnie Darko too, have you seen it?? It's really weird and I love it!! :)
Yeah, I had to give you honourable mention, Trin, cuz you were my first poster! You started the trend ;-) Hehe.
Ayumi - no I haven't seen Donny Darko...but now I want to! Do you have it?? Maybe we can all watch it together! :-) Can't wait for the 27th!!
