Lovers (Theme from House of Flying Daggers)

Last night I read a pretty good book. It reminded me a lot of Twilight (I know, I know, I'm as sick of Twilight and Edward Cullen as the next person--excepting the girls that are completely psychotically still obsessed) Anyway I think I liked this book better than Twilight, but that might just be because I really am truly sick of Twilight and have been since Eclipse's book release. I'll be honest, I loved Twilight until everyone else started getting obsessed with it. Then the movie killed whatever good qualities it had left. They could have at least hired people who had basic acting skills. Wow totally went off subject. The book I read last night and today was called Dark Divine by Bree Despain. I really enjoyed it. It was a short, intense read and was hard to put down to go to sleep so instead of catching up on my sleep this weekend I lost even more lol.

As I read, I listened to this song by Shigeru Umebayashi featuring Kathleen Battle for the title song from House of Flying Daggers called Lovers. I kept repeating it because it just fit with the part of the book I was reading. It's gorgeous, and now I want to watch the movie again. Its one of my movies that collects dust because its hard for me to watch movies with subtitles since I'm always working on things while watching movies (which means not really watching at all... just listening). This is a problem because I also love foreign films, and have a few, but I just never watch them. On the plus side, I graduate in 26 days and the school's portfolio event is in 19 days and the IIDA event the week after graduations and then I'll have time. Hopefully...
