I love PostSecret

I ♥ PostSecret.



"PostSecret is an ongoing community art project where people mail in their secrets anonymously on one side of a homemade postcard." Secrets are published every Sunday. It is managed by a man named Frank Warren. The secrets sent go to him (rather, his P.O. box). He then sorts out the secrets and chooses which ones are to be published for the weekend. There have been at least 3 PostSecret books published so far.

Every week, I go to their site. Every week, I discover secrets that resonate with me. These two secrets from this week's batch connect with me the most.


It's amazing how secrets of others can unearth secrets of your own.

I love Iron Man!

I ♥ Iron Man!



Read about the movie on IMDB.

Superman on steroids. Yes? Yes.

I love Pam & Jim & Falling Slowly!

I ♥ the movie Once. And I also ♥ Pam & Jim from The Office. I know I just posted a fan vid of them, but I couldn't resist. This fanvid is set to the song "Falling Slowly." Beautiful editing, the song was perfect, and the ending -- let's all give out one big "awwwwwww."

I love Pam & Jim & Coffee Shop!

Woah, long title. I just ♥ all three subjects in that title.

I've written in my other blog how much I like the song "Falling in love at a coffee shop" by Landon Pigg. Who wouldn't love it? It's gentle and sweet, nothing angsty at all.

And then today, I came upon a fanvid of Pam & Jim from The Office set to Landon Pigg's song! Oh my gosh, how perfect is that! The fanvid covers the awkwardness of Pam & Jim from the earlier seasons, hence the song being a perfect partner to it. And then it goes into the slow but steady falling of the two, complemented wonderfully by the song's final lines.

It would have been perfect if there was a coffee shop scene, but the only characters I remember being in a coffee shop were Dwight & Jan, and Pam & Angela.

Here we go. Pam & Jim with Falling in love at a coffee shop. Lyrics after the video.



Falling in love at a coffee shop
by Landon Pigg

I think that possibly, maybe I’m falling for you
Yes theres a chance that I’ve fallen quite hard over you.
I’ve seen the paths that your eyes wander down
I want to come too

I think that possibly, maybe I’m falling for you

No one understands me quite like you do
Through all of the shadowy corners of me

I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop
I love so much
All of the while I never knew
I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop
I love so much
All of the while I never knew

I think that possibly, maybe I’m falling for you
Yes theres a chance that I’ve fallen quite hard over you.
I’ve seen the waters that make your eyes shine
Now I’m shining too

Because oh because
I’ve fallen quite hard over you

If I didn’t know you, I’d rather not know
If I couldn’t have you, I’d rather be alone

I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop
I love so much
All of the while I never knew
I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop
I love so much
All of the while, I never knew

All of the while , all of the while
It was you

I love this Twilight fan video!

I ♥ this video -- it's awesome. It has clips from the MTV interview, the song is perfect, the editing really great. Love, love, love. It has Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart as Edward and Bella, but Steven Strait as Jacob. I'm totally fine with that. :P

This is a New Moon video. :)

I love The Bird and the Bee!

I ♥ The Bird and The Bee. Here's one song of theirs. I couldn't find "Come As You Were" so this'll do. It's catchy and fun.



I need to get their CD now.

Today's song is brought to you by anticipation and a headache.

I love Lemon Yellow!

I love yellow! It makes me happy. It makes me cheery.

Yellow buzzes with positivity and good vibes. Maybe that's why I were wearing yellow today, because I feel bummed out. :)

I love the Twilight Project!

I ♥ the Twilight project! I support the Twilight cast! Watch this:



I've seen some Twilight communities that just keep on bashing the cast. It's gotten pretty old, you know? Just let the cast be. Let them surprise you.

As one of the girls in the video said, this project is one way of spreading positivity about the Twilight movie. I'm jumping on that positivity wagon.

This is just a little blog, but every ounce of positivity helps. Here are my shoutouts:

Robert Pattinson, I think you'll be a great Edward. You already dazzle us. I support you!
Kristen Stewart, you're totally Bella so I support you!
Peter Facinelli, you exude Carlisle's down-played glamour. I support you!
Taylor Lautner, you've got Jacob's boyish charm. I support you!
Nikki Reed, you've got the sass Rosalie possesses. I support you!
Ashley Greene, you have the cheeky pixie-ness of Alice. I support you!
Elizabeth Reaser, you've got that compassionate motherly vibe going as Esme. I support you!
Kellan Lutz, you look every bit the protector Emmett is. I support you!

The rest of the cast, I support you too.

And I, too, am happy that the movie is being made. Every ounce of positivity makes a difference. I hope this somehow reaches them.

I love Falling Slowly

I ♥ the song Falling Slowly from the movie Once.

It's been over a month since I first saw it and I'm still hooked on the song. And yey for Falling Slowly winning an Oscar too! My husband and I cheered when their win was announced. We are so in love with that movie.

Here are the lyrics to the Oscar-winning song Falling Slowly.


I don’t know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can’t react
And games that never amount
To more than they’re meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You’ve made it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can’t go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I’m painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It’s time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You’ve made it now

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You’ve made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I’ll sing along

I love Twilight Serenade!

I ♥ the song Twilight Serenade! I came upon the song in a Twilight LJ community, got hooked by the title, listened to the song and got blown away.

If only I knew how to do a fanvid, I'd totally make one with this song. It is a Jacob to Bella song, I think. For Eclipse, specifically, or even for Breaking Dawn if they don't end up together. Or this could be Edward's song to Bella in New Moon.

Twilight Serenade
(Lyrics Source)

The starlight hours pass and I look down
At my clenched fist, holding on
Wondering how I'll forget
Like a sweet refrain singing
I promised to give you everything, but what's left, of what I once had?

Everything must live and die to gain
Pass through the grave
Only in surrender do we find our way
Oh, my soul, why are you so afraid
Don't you know
Listen for the Twilight Serenade

The night burns in my hand, did you notice
My whole world collided in a moment
A glow of sadness fades
And I wait for the morning rain
I promised to give you everything, but what's left, of what I once had?

Everything must live and die to gain
Pass through the grave
Only in surrender do we find our way
Oh, my soul, why are you so afraid
Don't you know
Listen for the Twilight Serenade

I love the Superfriends meets F.R.I.E.N.D.S.!

I ♥ watching Justice League. I ♥ watching friends. So this video that syncs dialogue from F.R.I.E.N.D.S. with the JLA cartoon was quite an amusing thing to watch!



What did you think? :D

I love Mike Newton!

Mike Newton is a guy from the Twilight series who has a huge crush on Bella. Truth is, if Bella's not going for either of the supernatural guys in her life, perhaps Mike Newton would be the perfect fit for her.

Or not.

I love well-written fan-fiction, so here's a link to great fanfic all on our favorite human teenage guy from Twilight.

I love lazy mornings!

I ♥ not rushing to wake up in the mornings. Oooh those are the best ever.

You take your time to get out of bed. You know, just daydream in the sheets, let your mind wander till you practically have to force yourself to get up. And what welcomes you is even more goodness - a delicious breakfast you can savor. No quick chomps on bagels or energy bars. Just pure lazy indulgence.

I absolutely ♥ mornings like this!

I love Starbucks' Black Tea Latte!

I ♥ tea. I ♥ lattes. I ♥ tea lattes. So when Starbucks introduced its Black Tea Latte, I was so all over it.

It's sweet but not too much, has the gradual kick of tea, and the creaminess that I love in a latte. Yum yum yum. It's great for my morning buzz. :)

I love Maraka!

I ♥ a good laugh! Maraka is a SNL parody of Dora the Explorer. Watch, watch, watch!



Her questions are so funny!
