BLOG -- Recap of April

So April was a crazy month for me. Strangely, though, I was very focused, determined to finish the video game-related New Year's Resolution. After that, Work just took me by storm and now I'm crazy busy again. (haha, I need a vacation).

Anywho, if you are curious about my thoughts on anything, as always, please go ahead and ask. :)

Outings/Events in April:

- I got a new phone! The model is Samsung Galaxy S II LTE. It's my first smartphone, weeee!

- Celebrated my sister's birthday.

- Hung out with friends x6 (3 was the Monday ritual meetup with one friend).

- Downloaded my first apps for my new smartphone.

- Had Lunch with my team-mates and boss (my boss is so cool).

Yeah... I did barely anything this month.

Exposures:

- (food) Pizzaburger -- There was too much burger and not enough pizza.

- (person) Ryan Higa -- I blame my sister for exposing me to him, but Ryan Higa is a youtubber whom I find to be funny, ridiculous, and also kinda heartfelt (his "Draw My Life" video really spoke to me). Anywho, I am quite addicted to his videos, and I like his voice and his train of thinking. It was also from watching his videos that I learned the saying "YOLO" (I've never seen it before, lol).

- (band) The National -- I was first exposed to The National by Warm Bodies (everything good comes out of Warm Bodies). One of their songs was featured in the movie and my co-worker shared some albums with me and I liked what I heard.

- (app) Boyfriend Maker -- This is one of the apps I installed on my smartphone, and it's kinda ridiculous. You pretty much just have conversations with your "boyfriend", sending him a message. Then he'll respond back, either making sense, or making none at all. You can also go on dates and customize him, but I haven't done any of that yet. I also haven't had ridiculous conversations with him yet -- I'm just being "sweet" right now.

Yeah... I didn't get exposed to much this month.

Finished...

Watching:

- (Movie): Trance -- This is a trippy movie with a really good soundtrack.

- (Movie): Another Earth -- This was... meh. I have absolutely no sympathy for the main character.

- (Movie): The Game -- This was interesting, but made me uncomfortable through most of it. No idea if I would ever watch it again.

- (Movie): Zoolander -- I watched this to see if I should still keep it in my collection. It passed.

- (Movie): Final Destination -- Ditto here, too. Despite the horrible ratings, of the first 3 movies, I still find this one the best -- the most "natural" for Death being the culprit.

- (Movie): Final Destination 2 -- This one passed as well. I find that it's hard to keep the first movie and not keep the sequel that's so closely related to it.

- (Movie): Saw -- After watching this again... I now see that there is tons of yelling and screaming in the movie.

Playing:

- (PS3): One Piece: Pirate Warriors -- I love this game. One Piece is the best! <3

- (PSN): Sound Shapes -- This is a really neat rhythm game. I totally enjoyed the "The Corporeal" album; awesome graphics and awesome music.

- (PSP): Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble -- This game is fun and hilarious. I'll probably play it again one day.

That's it for April. The image upload function in Blogger doesn't seem to be working, so here are just a couple of videos instead:

The National -- "Conversation 16"
This is one of my favourite tracks from their High Violet album.

 Ryan Higa -- "The Most Annoying People on the Internet"
This is one of Ryan Higa's videos that I like to watch a lot. 
It's so funny and random. I probably fall under a few of those.

Thanks for reading! :)
