There’s no sense of irony in that title… Really now, Hellrae…

So self-centered…

Since I haven’t quite decided what I shall do with this blog (i.e. creative writing journal or latest and greatest from Japan (and the Far East) blog), for now, I’ll keep it about my various obsessions.

One of my current obsessions is Japanese [rock] band Flow. If you have ever heard of Flow, odds are you’ve watched Naruto, Eureka Seven, and/or Code Geass among other media (video games and J-Drama) they’ve attached singles too.

I’ll admit it, I am an extremely shallow music fan. So generally, when I say I like so-and-so, it mostly refers to a single or two. I have a short attention span, so sue. Anyway, I am totally obsessed with their song, “Colors.”

It’s really too cute, and rather surprisingly, fitting for Code Geass. I love the part where the guitarist throws down his ax and goes after one of the vocalist, with his band mates rushing him. While I like the song, I think its a bit weird how the music is arranged. Its a little wonky. No?

But yeah, that video is on my PSP (suck it, I-Pod) right beside “Flames on the side of my face…”

^ If you understand that reference, pat yourself on the back. If you don’t, get on netflix and rent Clue, a dark, but excellent comedy. Its not too old either, I’ll be 21 in August, so you have no excuse.

Other current obsessions… Lately, I’ve been thinking of playing video games, rather than actually doing. I mean, that’s a new low in terms of laziness, right? I can understand wanting to play Yoshi’s Story and Wave Race, both on the Nintendo 64 (I’d have to dust that thing off!). But thinking about playing Odin Sphere and Okami? That’s just lame.

Even as I am typing, I am thinking of playing a game. So lazy…

Am I weird? Then again, I am writing about asking myself this question, when no one that I know of is around. Meh, in any case, its time for me to get ready for work. Blech.
