Too Much Photoshop?

by iheartbadtz:mymelody.com

Have you seen the Demi Moore article on Yahoo! today? She appeared on the “W” magazine, and some people have spotted that a huge chunk of her hip was obviously photoshopped out to give her a skinnier look. It made me search for other Photoshopped images of celebrities, like this one of Faith Hill:

I understand where the publishers are coming from, but don’t you think that’s a little too much? They look good without going through extreme measures (check out Faith Hill’s arms and forearms, they became extremely tiny). Honestly, I think what they’ve done just increases the wrong body image that people have these days. It just stinks because it makes people aim to look like what they see on pictures, when in fact, that’s not actually naturally true.

“Heroes” Finally Has Direction

by iheartbadtz:mymelody.com

Finally! After all these weeks, an episode in the new season of “Heroes” finally makes sense. I know a lot of people have given up on the show, but the recent episode just made me think there’s still a chance for it to work. It wasn’t as great as the older storylines (especially the one from Season 1), but at least it actually had direction, compared to what they’ve shown so far.

Oh, and I’m sad. They’ve canceled “Dollhouse”. It wasn’t the best Joss Whedon show, but it was still a good show. Too bad I wouldn’t be able to see what’s going to happen between Sierra and Victor.

Darkside Chronicles

resident-evil-darkside-chronicles-01

The game’s set for release tomorrow! I can’t wait. Even if it’s an on-rails game, it’s still Resident Evil, so it’s gonna be awesome! The game features the RE2 and CVX scenarios, as well as a brand-new one featuring Leon and Krauser (yes, the guy with the mutated arm in RE4) in South America, which is probably their first mission as special agents. I’m a little sad Jill won’t be there, but at least Chris will be, and it would be great to see Claire in HD.:p The trailers have been amazing so far. My only worry is the motion, since they made it so that the camera moves along with the characters, so if they’re running, there’s bouncing and stuff. I get motion sickness easily, so I hope the game won’t trigger it.x_x

“Glee”

by iheartbadtz:mymelody.com

Can I just say… I teared up a lot of times during the latest “Glee” episode? There were a lot of moments that made me get teary during the entire length of the episode.

NaNoWriMO Update

by iheartbadtz:mymelody.com

Just a quick update about my NaNoWriMo experience this year: I’m failing.x_x I should be near 25,000 by the second week, but I haven’t even made it to 10,000. Argh. I’ve really been busy, what with school starting again and my crazy paper still not done, so yeah. I’m hoping I’ll win again this year, but it doesn’t look good right now.:(

Random Thought of the Day

by iheartbadtz:mymelody.com

Do penguins get sad when they see birds, because they can’t fly too?

Yeah, I’m in one of my random moments.:P I’m still not done with my study, and NaNoWriMo has officially started a couple of days ago (I’m almost a thousand words behind, gaaah), so randomness is the answer to the stress.XD

Spooky

by iheartbadtz:mymelody.com


You Are Spooky


You put the trick in “trick or treat,” and you won’t stop scaring people until you scare yourself.
You love horror movies, dark spooky nights, and the darker side of Halloween. You save the kids’ stuff for the kids.Speaking of kids, you avoid the little candy grubbing monsters at all costs. Well, unless you are looking to give them a little scare.

You think Halloween has gotten a bit to sugary these days, and you don’t mind injecting a little fright into things.

Are You Spooky or Kooky?

Blogthings: We Have a Quiz for Almost Everything

And here I thought I was going to be classified as “kooky”.:P It’s the party activity that did me in: I’m not a fan of bobbing for apples.:P

Happy Halloween, everyone!

Treat

by iheartbadtz:mymelody.com
You Are a Treat
As a kid, you didn’t cause too much trouble, and the adults adored you. Now that you’ve grown up, not much has changed.
You know that a little sugar is the way to get what you want in life, and you are as sweet as they come.

You like to make things better in the world, and you don’t mind following rules… no matter how silly they may seem.
You are a truly good person, and there’s very few of you in the world. Anyone who knows you is blessed!

Sorry about the overload of Halloween quizzes, I just love the holiday.:P Description’s pretty accurate (and actually flattering!), although I do have my goofy moments.:P

Oh yeah, TV updates!

No Glee this week.:( I hope Puck and Rachel get back together!

CSI Miami: None this week too, but last week showed Delko leaving CSI, so I don’t know if that means him leaving the show too.

Nothing much happened on CSI, CSI: NY, Supernatural, and House, although I heard rumors that Cameron’s going to be leaving the show. I hope it isn’t true though, I like her.:(

I Has a Happee!

by iheartbadtz:mymelody.com

I don’t know if I mentioned this in the blog already, but one of the reasons why I’m so stressed out this term in school is because I’m doing a solo study, which has been nerve-wracking because I had to do everything on my own, and the project’s pretty big. Anyway, the whole thing has been pretty messed up in the latter half of the semester, especially with what lawyers would call an “act of God” (don’t ask x_x). So yeah, disaster struck, and I became even more panicked because the deadline of the study – complete with the sections, subsections, references, appendices, the works! – is the end of October, and I still am running short on respondents and I have no idea how to run it on the statistics software (yes, numbers still make me itch). I was thisclose to going on headless chicken mode when my teacher said she’ll grant me two weeks’ extension, but I have to get more respondents by then, because what I have right now isn’t enough. Still, I breathed more easily, because this is the one thing that’s making me freak out these days. I’m normally an insomniac already, but stressing over this has made me lose even more sleep. Hopefully I’ll be able to crunch out all the data and what-not in the next couple of weeks. Wish me luck!

This LOLdog explains how I feel right now:

funny-dog-pictures-but-this-is-his-happy-face

I am happy, but I’m too tired and sleepy to be giddy about it. Oh, and I still have no solid plot for NaNoWriMo. Grawr.

Halloween

by iheartbadtz:mymelody.com


You See Halloween as Scary
A bit of an introvert, you like the special occasions just as much as everyone else. You just have your own unique way of celebrating Halloween.

You definitely think of yourself as someone who has a dark side. And part of having that dark side means not showing it.

Your inner child is open minded, playful, and adventurous.

You truly fear the dark side of humanity. You are a true misanthrope.

You’re prone to be quite emotional and over dramatic. Deep down, you enjoy being scared out of your mind… even if you don’t admit it.

You are a traditionalist with most aspects of your life. You like your Halloween costume to be basic, well made, and conventional enough to wear another year.

Actually, I’ve never really celebrated Halloween, at least, not in terms of trick-or-treating. My family and I usually watch horror movies or those spooky specials on TV on Halloween itself.:P
