Lately I've gotten into a web comic called Hetalia, and I found a really nice fanvid for it on YouTube. Can anyone tell me what song this is, and who sang it?

I'm sorry if it says on the title, but I can't read Japanese.

Thank you~!

"Perhaps there are many reasons why this should be so: first, because a woman is "not your type" you let yourself, at the beginning, be loved by her without loving in return, and by doing this you allow your life to be gripped by a habit which would not have taken root in the same way with a woman who was "your type," who, conscious of your desire, would have offered more resistance, would only rarely have consented to see you, would not have installed herself in every hour of your days with that familiarity which that means that later, if you come to love her and then suddenly she is not there, because of a quarrel or because of a journey during which you are left without news of her, you are hurt by the severance but of a thousand links.
And then this habit, not resting upon the foundation of strong physical desire, is sentimental one, and once love is born the brain gets much more busily to work; you are plunged into a romance, not plague by a mere need.  We are not wary of women who are "not your type," we let them love us, and if, subsequently, we come to love them we love them a hundred times more than we love other women, without even enjoying in their arms the satisfaction of assuaged desire.  For these reasons and many others the fact that our greatest unhappinesses come to us from women who are "not your type" is not simply an instance of that mockery of fate which never grants us our wishes except in the form which pleases us least.
A woman who is "our type" is seldom dangeous, she is not interested in us, she gives us a limited consentment and then quickly leaves us without establishing herself in our life, and what on the contrary, in love, is dangerous and profilic of suffering is not a woman herself but her presence besides us every day and our curiousity about what she is doing every minute: not the beloved woman, but habit."

Prison Break wasn't on tonight, wtf is this

"'The friendship of two young people,' says Goethe somewhere, 'is delightful when the girl likes to learn and the boy to teach.' It will perhaps be said that this virgin curiosity is no more than unconscious physical desire; but what does it matter, if this desire sharpens the mind and deadens conceit?"

"It is absurd and inhuman for a man and woman to want to live as though they had no bodies."

"The reading of a fine book is an uninterrupted dialogue in which the book speaks and our soul replies."

--Andre Maurois

Hey, tuberinos! First off, a huge shout-out to Jennifer Godwin and Natalie Abrams who covered this column (and completely rocked it) last week while I was away in a supersecret location digging up scoop for you...Well, OK, truth told, that supersecret location was actually the Tides Zihuatanejo, which I now refer to as heaven on Earth because it is just about the most peaceful, beautiful and relaxing place you can imagine. Friendly tip: If you happen to be either pregnant or not pregnant (that should apply to some of you), a massage with one of the Tides' native masseuses will change your life. Honest engine! Bottom line? I am happy. The baby is happy. And more importantly for you, I'm in a very giving mood...

Rachel in Miami: Kristin, what is Josh Holloway's phone number?
Not that giving. (P.S. Would you think less of me if I said I didn't have it?) But I do have some more Lost scoop below!

( ++++++++++++++++++++++++ )

Did we all enjoy Gossip Girl? I know I did
and what about Heroes, SO fucking good!

Success follows Rufus Wainwright. As a musician, activist and humanitarian, this multi-award-winning singer/songwriter has one of the most interesting careers in show business. On his way from Berlin to London, Wainwright takes a few minutes out of his schedule to talk about his upcoming opera, his newest album, Release The Stars, and his thoughts on the media in both the United States and Europe.

MJR: Congratulations on the success of Release The Stars, which has been at the top of the charts both here in the States and in the U.K., where it went Gold.

RW: Thank you Michael. Release The Stars was surely a labor of love and I am so glad it is finding the success that is has.

Was tonight worth watching?

There is a kind of expressed love which is easy to subvert. When a figure is loved for their deeds, their conquests, their heroism, their goodness, their love of the people, these are easy enough to destroy... But there is a kind of love which is felt for apparently no reason... A love, inspired, it seems, by the gods, which it is impossible to fight, distort, destroy, or weaken. In fact, the attempts to destroy such loves only strengthen them. And to do nothing allows them to continue to grow at their natural pace, inexoribly, till this love becomes a wide and silent adoration.

"I don't know how long

regret existed before humans stuck a word on it.
I don't know how many paper towels it would take
to wipe up the Pacific Ocean, or why the light

of a candle being blown out travels faster
than the luminescence of one that's just been lit,
but I do know that all our huffing and puffing

into each other's ears—as if the brain was a trick
birthday candle—didn't make the silence
any easier to navigate."

Didn't see this information posted here yet...



I just received an email from my school's transportation services (USC) regarding road closures around the campus, beginning with:

Due to a Disney World Premier at the Galen Center on Thursday, October 16, 2008...

Curious, I searched google... and it turns out that Disney is having the World Premiere of High School Musical 3 at the Galen Center at my school! (The Galen Center is our indoor basketball arena.) I know that it has premiered in London and I think Sweden, so perhaps this is just the official one. Anyway, I've never been so excited about HSM before, and I don't have class that day. Perhaps a paparazzi-camera outing is in order.

Perfect chance for all you USC/Los Angeles ONTDers out there to get a sign... I know you're out there "deranged fans"! Just... no repeat of London.
