you can hear me saying "choice is murder" at the beginning. and my name is in the credits somewhere in the end. yeah, i drink at work.
as you all know, taking back sunday and brand new share spots 1 + 2 as my two most favorite bands. when taking back sunday came out with their third album, i was slightly disappointed because it wasn't as heartfelt as catchy as the first two (their first album was soooo wonderful and some of their demo songs made me feel more than i ever did). but "makedamnsure" on their newest album was so catchy (and he looked so damn cute in the video) that i was able to accept this album. in addition, the lyrics weren't toooo deep that they become confusing. so i let it go.
so brand new's newest album came out last month. but for a few months now, i've had the demos that justin downloaded for me, so i was able to sample the songs before they came out. that whole time i was hoping that the revised album would be more energetic or heartfelt. now that the actual real album is out, i can't say that my wish had been granted. i really tried to like their third album, but they make it so difficult. it's not a BAD album. i did try listening to it as though they were a new band. it didn't really help. i can't feel any yearning or passion. i think the whole time, i just felt this sinking feeling of giving up. i'm sure that can be a really intense feeling, but having the whole album feeling like that is no good. there isn't even that much frustration, just the loss of hope. and a lot of the times, they try to be tooo clever with their words, that it's much harder to feel heartfelt about stuff. i'm sure my verbalization is horrible right now, but it's because i'm upset. i've listened to that album over and over again today, hoping to like it. it's just their first two albums were so different, yet both so great. i was hoping that this "different" album will grow on me like "deja entendu" did. it did not. i will keep trying over the next few months, but the forecast looks bleak. it really is not a bad album, i'm just disappointed in it. i really want to love it since i will see them again in april. i really love jesse in the last 2 albums. this album, i can't any positive energy from the words or the melodies. it's like they stopped trying. i hope i will change my mind about this after like 10 more listens to the album.
but yeah. i've never felt so sad about an album. mebbe they'll come out with some sort of music video that will redeem it.
Jenni Cheung at 05:01 PMsometimes i disappear for months at a time and this time (even though it's only been about one month) i actually have a pretty good reason...
FINAL FANTASY XII !!!!!!
yes, i finally finished Enchanted Arms on the 360 and i bought FF12 and started playing that about 3.5 weeks ago. i am currently clocked at 149 hours, and that is not including the several times i had to restart, esp. during that fight with the esper Zodiark (which i have still yet to beat). the average levels of all my characters is at 83 now. i'm still doing sidequests to collect items and stuff so i can get myself suit up for the hard sidequest fights. i really suck at this game because i never really tried to learn the quickenings. which is why i had so much trouble with Zodiark because at around 25% health left, he puts up this shield that makes him immune to physical attacks AND this shield that makes him immune to magic AND he starts casting Darkja every 10-20 seconds. its a fucknutter.
i can't wait till i finish this game, so i can play Zelda Twilight Princess on the Wii. the Wii is Wii-LEEE fun! omg that was so dorky.
oh, and i started watching the reruns of "Scrubs" that they've been playing on Comedy Central. i record all the episodes on my DVR and i watch them before i go to bed and before i go to work in the morning. that's why i've been late to work more than usual too... i'm ashamed...
