What do you do when you're feeling depressed, or stressed?
Henry_Henry2012 replied to WatchPatRun's topic in The Lounge
The sound of water splashing reminds me that I need to pee. Haha. Water also has a calming effect on me. That's why I stay in the tub for at least an hour or so. I nearly drowned one time cause I slept in the tub for two hours. And swimming in a body of water is amazing too. The moonlight reflecting the sea at night is so relaxing. The coast guard thought my best friend and I were dry humping cause we were having so much trying to drown each other cause no one was around. -
Yes. He's my future husband. Any qualms about that? Well... I have lots of future husband in the entertainment industry. Michael Fassbender, Jim Sturgess, Henry Cavill, Jamie Dornan, Colin Firth, Jeremy Irvine, Pre-nanny whoring days Jude Law, Will Ferrel, Seth Macfarlane... and lots more. I know. I'm a whore. So screw me! I mean... Sue me. Haha. I googled it now and I didn't know there's a tv series as well in america named North & South. The American one was a tv adaptation of John Lake's trilogy. And this series was an adaptation from the Elizabeth Gaskel's novel of the same name. Elizabeth changed the name to north and south due to the urging of her close friend, Charles Dickens - I suppose. I wouldn't say its all about the industrial era, but the story is more focused on the societal relationships and aspects of the worker-master thing. Because in honesty, I could see this novel being written as a social backdraft of the societal context derivative of Elizabeth Gaskel's time without a love story. It's just that the story has an underlying love story that in time slowly envelops the story. It's not like Pride & Prejudice wherein you know that it's a love story. BBC just did an amazing job putting such an ensemble cast that has that amazing chemistry. And the cinematography really made me feel like it was dated. I don't gush about tv series especially period dramas, but this one really takes the cake. And I would like Mr. Richard to pop out of that cake anytime soon.

I don't know if some people here like period dramas. But I am fond of period dramas, especially if it's well done. Much like the BBC's 1995 adaption of Pride & Prejudice starring Collin Firth and Jennifer Ehle. The 1995 adaptation is probably the best version of Pride & Prejudice brought on screen and so far the best chemistry between the two leads. And I'd have to say, this series brought the bag. When I watched a DVD from my exes condo named "North & South", I only got to view the first episode and I was immediately introduced to the hotness of Richard Armitage. I was like, "DAYYUMN! This motherfathering piece of stud-muffin is gorgeous in period clothing." not to mention his brilliant acting as Mr. John Thornton. And Daniella Denby-Ashe was amazing as well as the young Margaret Hale...she looks like a baby doll and her eyes is so pretty. I ordered a DVD of it on amazon around 4 years ago and I was so frigging excited to watch it... until my DVD player couldn't play the disc cause it was set in another region or something. So basically I still didn't get to watch the whole series. I eventually lost my DVD. Up until a few days ago I found the whole series up in youtube. I watched it twice now and kept having dreams of Mr. Thornton. I don't know why I watched it twice... It's probably the full satisfaction of the ending scene. Spoiler Alert: Wherein Mr. Thornton lovingly gazes at Margaret at the train station as they wait for the kiss. I just couldn't get my head around that scene. For a man to look at someone with ardent devotion and affection like the world's about to end... it makes me shit my pants that men are full of crap of nowadays. I just love period dramas. I adore the long courting, the small gestures that are so effectual yet short but full of significance to the development of the character relationships. And the whole, "My world has collapsed for my love has not sent me a letter. I shall jump on top of Big Ben as a sign of my undying devotion." kind of thing that most suicidal men and women at that time go through. I sure as hell would like someone to die for me. For I sure wouldn't want to die for them unless they look like Mr. Thornton and admiringly gazes at me everytime he says, " I loov yuh." So much for chivalry. Well, I want to know if people actually go for this dramas or this drama. (My future hubby after I time travelled in time) (My future wife - after Mr. Thornton leaves me for Mr. Darcy) (Mr. Thornton: Kiss me...) (Margaret: I wanna have your babies.) (Mr. Thornton: On our honeymoon. Coz I'm a gentleman. Kiss me.) (Margaret: Hang on. Let me get my tic-tac.) And this is my guideline to a healthy life: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16eQrydz4L8 - Part 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBVlaofNc0w - Part 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LX63AN5ViA4 - Part 3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qa1BsOayheg - Part 4

HOWMAYGAHD! Harry Potter's gay? I always thought there was something kinky when Harry would say, "Engarde Leviosa! Now Bend!"

You didn't stay tuned for your city's Hunger Games? That's what probably happened next. Haha.

HAHA! I was about to say, "Rosemary's Baby?" and then I read the Manson Family.

I remember when this lady from a writing seminar I attended in college said that '...You don't apologise for your characters behaviour or their manner of tone, words, and profanity in their context. I don't think you would apologise if you're angry and you say "I'm fucking pissed right now."' For me, it's all in the characterisation really. Well...I don't want my character saying, "Oopsie Daises! I have cancer. I'm gonna die?" or "Hail Mary Immaculate Conception conceived without original sin, I'm gonna die? Mother Fu...Father-Jesus-Joseph! Huuwaay?"

How can u attract a straight guy and make him fall for you?
Henry_Henry2012 replied to a topic in The Lounge
This is probably one of the stupidest questions I've ever encountered. And yet I can't stop myself from reading the thread responses. This question...It's like telling the world you're straight while sashaying yourself with a pink charmeuse dress while high-fiving everyone with a dildo *batteries not included* and saying, "You go Girl! I'ma eat yow pu**y" Unless you're Dennis Rodman of course. -
I'm more of a graphic orientation player since I get bored easily with blocky graphics/animation *coughs minecraft* so I choose the PC. Although the comfort of sitting on a couch with potato skins beside you and a cold lagger while playing video games is tempting with the console genre. Mmm... Potato skins...

Too many bugs for my taste. I'd probably wait two years from now before playing this. I've been addicted to simcity before but when I played this game over a friend's house... it was a headache. Kept on crashing on me. I kept on asking myself, "Why me?" And then I googled this shit and found out that critics were panning its initial release because of the bugs and crashes. I'd rather play Simsimi. That annoying chicken that's playable online.

All right. The jig is up. I've watched all the twilight movies and read the twilight books. I don't hate it... but I don't love it. Please don't ban me. I always imagined Edward to be played by "Henry Cavill" and Jacob to be played by "Steven Strait" and bella by "Jennifer Lawrence". *giggles like a tween* And I think the movie isn't all that shit... it's really just bad acting. Please don't kill me. I haven't read 50 Shades of Grey yet... I want to read that shit.

Doesn't alcohol lower down the libido of a man if taken excessively? Cause there was one time in college wherein this straight friend of mine always stared at my eyes and said "Can I kiss you? You're hot..." (probably the effects of alcohol = he's delusional) whenever he's hammered at one of his parties. And when I actually let him kiss me, he vomitted on my neck. I think I've gone past adventurous for straight men on that page.

I remember going into this remote beach with my best friend. We were supposed to be 5 friends to go at that beach but the three of them cancelled at the last minute. I was bored as hell that summer and decided that I'll bask in the summer sun no matter what it took. When we arrived, the two of us were so tired from hand-carrying the tent, the water bottles and our own crap that we immediately set camp and slept the whole day. I slept in the hammock while being ravaged by fire ants creeping on my legs. And my bestfriend slept inside the tent since she was having a cold and a slight fever. I woke up at around 11'ish PM and almost slept for 10 hours. I decided to have my shower from the communal shower/loo-of-doom. Afterwards, I grabbed the bottle of scotch inside the tent. When I was searching the tent, a man nudged my shoulders and asked me. "Hey bro, do you have a light?" I turned around and noticed that he was one of the guys from the group of couples from the other tent a few miles beside ours. There were four people in their group, 2 women and 2 men, and him being one of them. I took out my lighter and he took out his cigarette. After he got his ciggy lit, he said "Thanks." I then returned to my business in finding the bottle of scotch, because I was planning to drink it in the seaside and have some alone time. The man returned and asked me another question so I stood up and turned to him as he said, "Uhm... hey bro. Can I blow you off, over there?" as he pointed to the shrubberies behind our tent. I thought to myself, "YAY! I'm getting laid!" but then I reasoned that getting herpes from a stranger and with me moaning or grunting would wake my best friend from her snoring. So I became a prude and said to him, "Thanks but... I'm with someone. I don't normally do these things. Thanks but I'll pass." The man smiled and returned to his tent. While my friend pretended to be asleep and mocked me for the whole night as we drank the bottle of scotch at the beach sands. My answer to the question with regards to my gaydar: For me, I can't really tell if anyone is gay nowadays. The man who asked me for some sexual rendezvous in the woods had a ring in his finger, so I reckoned he was married. If I bumped into him in another scenario, probably in a mall or in a public pool, he'd probably turn out to be a heterosexual man in my opinion... without the onset of a blow-job of course. And yes, my gaydar is shit.

I just found this song on youtube and currently I can't get it out of my head. I can't believe this song was made on garageband. Their video is cute too. This band seriously needs to get viewed. Already a fan.

I feel like I'm being a psychiatric ward to make the gay away. The first few seconds of the "Ooh's" and "Aaah's" already gave me a clue to what this hell is about. I shouldn't have continued.

Favorite GAY character on TV of all Time!
Henry_Henry2012 replied to markycielo's topic in The Lounge
He's the reason why I like men with meat in their bones. He's just too cute. He plays the role of a gay slacker. If a guy is as funny and as cute and charming as that... now way I'm letting him out in the real world. I'm chaining him to the bed. -
Are men as aesthetically pleasing to look at as women are?
Henry_Henry2012 replied to Warrior1's topic in The Lounge
I find it rare to find a natural beauty these days without having the need for peripherals such as conduits to enhance their so called beauty. If this is a conversation that tackles scientific beauty then I'd say that the merits of proportionality does convene to what defines beauty. I once watched a documentary in discovery channel with one of the hosts as Elizabeth Hurley and John Cleese. The show was called "The Human Face", and they tackled the issue of what defines beauty within proportions. They had that funny insight at the near end of the show, about John Cleese's face not applicable to this diagram created by some doctor to measure the proportions of a beautiful face, and the doctor stated that John Cleese has a very 'manly' face or full of testosterone which defines a subset of beauty altogether. His face extended outside of the diagram. The hilarious part was when they tried measuring Tom Cruise's face and determined that he was beautiful on accounts of proportionality, seeing that they just used a diagram for identifying women's beauty through face proportionality *snaps fingers*. The rumor that Da Vinci's Mona Lisa was Da Vinci's face after all does exude a common truth that face proportions is a good measure for beauty may it be for a woman or a man, and with such imperfections comes real beauty altogether. The slightly bent nose, the distance of the mouth and the nose, the distance of the eyes, the ears, and etc. Beautiful men are easy to find. You just need to know what makes the face beautiful. Because attraction is a different thing. You could be attracted to a guy whose face is not proportional and say he's beautiful, but the consensus would be amongst the people around you or your friends would be is that he's not, which also comes with the factor of whether you're asking the insights of men or women. And yes, men are aesthetically pleasing to look at if you have a distinct knowledge of what makes a person attractive based on your personal preference and the general consensus. If you can associate both then you have your own version of the perfect man. -
True indeed. I've noticed that being reliant on Microsoft Word has its drawbacks. My spelling has definitely gone awry and I could never behest the good intention of checking twice the words that is commonly misspelled by authors. As for editors, most editors I've met have issues with my storyline, only because they haven't read the whole story per se. I've had a great opportunity to contact a friend who has told me that he would only edit my work after my story is done. Which makes sense. My one rule, in which my professor from college has gladly given me such advise, is to never solicit an editor's advise if the story you're doing is not finished as a whole. It would be detrimental on your storyline if the editor would make changes that is limited only to the submitted part of the story, not the whole story itself. Especially in this site wherein submissions are provided chapter per chapter; it's difficult to assume that an editor is following through your storyline (especially complexed ones) if and if you, as an author, have only provided parts of your story through a chapter submission. As an author, I wouldn't expect an editor to provide me insights to the storyline if he has not fully read the whole story, unless it's grammatical errors he is subjecting me to correct, or spellchecks that he deemed sufficient to be changed within a given chapter. It would be preposterous and absurd if an editor commissions me to change a whole paragraph plot-line that he deems would better the flow of the story, if I've only provided him two or three chapters. Editors like that would only be questionable on their ability to discern such changes that should be made, if the editor would impose big changes wherein he or she has only read a couple chapters from a story. Of course, I'm not implying that editors cannot make their editing on a chapter basis, however, that should be done if the editor is fully devoted to the progression of the story. And communication plays a vital role in assuring that changes to be made on a chapter basis are considered paramount and not a hindrance to the story. I've noticed that editors prefer proof-reading or editing a completed work, instead of revising or making minor changes to a chapter. There's only so much an editor can do to a story that lacks the "Oomph" factor to make a story readable. I'd rather be shunned by an editor because he/she doesn't have the time to edit my work, no matter how dreadful or absurd my lack of grammar appears to be. But I'd be devastated and morose if the editor were to inform me that my story lacks the imagination to even begin as a story itself. Writing is work, after all.

Silence and being naked. I strip my clothes, sip my coffee or tea and just start to write away. I also listen to a music that compliments the mood of my story, otherwise, I find it a distraction to listen to the genre of music opposite to the emotions that sets the tone and mood of the story or chapter I'm writing.

I seriously have a thing for Jecht. He looks like he hasn't bathed for days and drags around a long sword while slashing people. What more could a man ask for? And he has underlying issues which is treatable with couples therapy. I'd be happy to strap him to a lounge chair and discuss his issues with a shrink if he looks like this: Thank God for people who are into Cosplay. This guy looks the part and he's cute.
-
The sexiest character for me would be Ifrit. He's smoking hot plus he'll chew on your head if you piss him off. And he's tall dark and handsome. My kind of man/half beast/half horned cow or something like that. He's practically naked and he's hard to define. I think I can change him which makes me gravitate towards his hotness.
-
Yup. The evident whistling falsetto at the end got me mate. I can feel the essence of Mariah Carey being imbibed by the guy with a 5'o Clock shadow. Fierce sistah. And I like that guy's top. Does this make me gay? Hmmm. Haha.

OH GOD! The first time I viewed that song "Friday" it only had 500k views, then BOOM! -- I was about to show it to a friend of mine the next day, then another gastroenteritis explosion catapulted the views, which had it spurted to 3mil views in a span of 24 hours. The power of teeny-bopper era supersedes any logic as to why the lyrics of a song should be paramount in a song. One Direction I think is a one-hit-wonder unless they produce songs that actually has sense or is relatable to other market segments, other than their demographics, which is the tweens, teens, pubescent teens, and pre-pubescent teens. Even the era of backstreet boys, spice girls, A1, westlife, and other boy bands that exceeded the quota that they would diminish somehow within mainstream pop-culture; some of the groups that I've mentions have songs that are very relatable besides the "Ohhs" and "Aaahs" you'd get from auto-tuned tracks nowadays. Which provided them a lasting power even after all these years. And you can't trust singers nowadays, with the rampant and blatant excessive abuse of auto-tuned tracks available in iTunes. What you hear from the album isn't necessarily realistic or based on what you've imagined or heard once you've seen them perform live.
