Drums, Darkness and 300

Hey there people! Lemme tell about how great my weekend was! Okay, let's start with Saturday. After school I went to a japanese festival that is always held here in the city I live, called Hana Matsuri. I've been going to this and others similar festivals for some years now, but I have to admit to you guys that lately they've been real lame and boring for various reasons, but this one was super cool! Don't if I feel like this because they arranged the the food's and stuff's stands in a new way, or because the gang I was with this time was real fun, I just know that I had a great time and laughed a lot, even though I had to walk a couple of blocks to the market to pee :oo

Anyway this is not everything I want to say about hana. this year there a stand called Jworld, and they were selling some cool (and some expensive) stuff like garage kits, anime-themed necklaces and t-shirts, key chains, imported mangas and dvds (fake, but that's not the point). Well, the fact is I was looking at the dvds and I saw a dvd from Malice Mizer's Merveilles show!! I just had to buy it, you know.. I mean, I love Malice Mizer, Merveilles is their best CD. It was somewhat cheap, and I was expecting a super low quality image, but I was so wrong (and i was so glad to be wrong this time)! I don't know if they bought the original and made copies or whatever, but the point is the show is tv quality! I was so happy about this, you can't even imagine.

(I was going to talk about more stuff about the festival but I think it'd be too much, right?)

At night, wearing half of my cosplay, I went straight to the theater to watch a play called Pátria Armada. Maybe you don't know, but this play's name is making reference to my country's national anthem. In a lame translation in the anthem it would be ''loved country'' and ''armed country'' (in Portuguese is a kind of game if the words since it would be respectively Pátria Amada and Pátria Armada). Well, it was such a cooooool play. It was a kind of documentary-musical and it happened in Brazil's dictatorship period. Talked about USP's (that is only like the best college in Latin America, and my first choice to study next year) students that getting in the midst of student's protests against the government and some of their conflicts with a rival college, Mackenzie (that's basically a college for riches mama's sons). It was great.

And today I went to the cinema to watch 300. It was very cool (despite the sin's against what really happened :pp) and had some awesome special effects. I was even prod of Rodrigo Santoro, with his get up to play the persians king, even though I usually think he's a lousy actor...


Kay. At first I've decided to open the Storage (aka the site where I'll be posting the links for the things I upload) with the links of a very cool dorama that I'm watching right now, but the files are real big and it takes decades to upload the episode's parts.. So that will still take some time before I can post the links, so I decide to go simpler and post some videos! So today you can all go to the Storage link at the little menu and download the PV for Yamapi's Daite Senorita and the lives for Malice Mizer's Brise and Gackt's Luna. Their quality are not so great but I hope you can enjoy it anyway :DDD

bye bye!
