Into Galaxy

Recently bought a new pair of galaxy leggings. Just love them! The length is perfect since I'm not very tall. They look cool with all kinds of platform shoes and Marten boots.

About Star Trek: Into Darkness

The new Star Trek movie has scenes and special effects even better than the first one. It is an amazing experience sitting in the theatre and watching it in 3D.

However, the story of the second one is much less impressive compare to the first Star Trek movie.

The first Star Trek movie is always one of my favourites. The story is funny, fine structured, and highly integrity. Compare to the good qualities of the first one, the second Star Trek movie has a pretty annoying story line. The structure of the story is weird, the rhythm is off, and the characteristics of the new characters are pale.

I'm a fan of Benedict Cumberbatch, but the bad guy he played in this movie is disappointing. He looks so strong and scheming when he first comes out, but turns out to be so lame in the end of the movie. It even makes more sense to let him convert into a good guy and leave all the guilt to Marcus. The transition of the character is just too stiff and not convincing enough.

But anyway, the fightings are cool. It is still funny and exciting to see those old crew members from the first movie teasing with each other again.

Warm sunshine and going out for fun!

Seriously, the weather in Minnesota is killing me!

After an extremely long depressing winter, the temperature finally starts to warm up.

But no spring! We've gone right into the summer!

I've always been longing for some mild temperatures since I am such a fan of layering up clothes. But unfortunately, the places I've ever been to are either too warm or too cold.

Now I guess it's the last chance for me to wear my sweaters out to take some nice pictures before the weather gets too warm.


Beautiful riverside

Snow Patrol - Fallen Empires

Snow Patrol is always one of my favourites.

I fell in love with their new album as always. Or maybe the album is not that new. I used to collect a whole lot of CDs as crazy, but the pace has been slowed down. I haven't paid too much attention to CD market for a while. After the Sigur Ros concert in St Paul, I picked up my little hobby again, and have found some really nice CDs ever since.

<Fallen Empire> is one of those best collections. The music is still my favourite type -- exquisite, beautiful, and stimulating.

The new album in some way reminds me of <Eyes Open>, which is until now my favourite album of theirs. The difference is that, the new album sounds more grand and magnificent. The music is so exciting and stirring, it fills up my room with miraculous heat every time I play it. 

I'm pretty sure this album will be another long lasting collection of mine.

Midnight Premier for Iron Man 3



Went to watch the Iron Man 3 tonight. It was an excitement to watch it in the theatre, but I still need to give a second thought to decide whether I could give it a high comment or not.

Honestly speaking, it's not as good as the first one, but much better than the second one.

I think there are different versions of the movie for United States and Mainland China. I've seen the preview for the Chinese version Iron Man 3, there suppose to be 2 famous Chinese players staring in this movie. But in the movie I've watched tonight, one of them only showed up for several seconds, and the other one was not shown at all. This makes me kind of disappointed. Because once a movie has made a second version for China, this version won't be too good. The authorities get in the way, and always cut the movie into some kind of garbage.

Spring Color

The temperature starts to pick up recently. I hope this is a good sign showing an end to the exhausting long winter we've struggled through in Minnesota.

I've been longing for some spring colors ever since the beginning of March. Now I could finally put up some of them to cheer myself up.
