Andy Lau songs, 200-somthing MB of it, in case anyone wants them (
iniaes?). Before any Western friends ask, he was TV actor turned singer turned movie actor, that's why there are songs. I don't actually like his singing (or acting...) at all, but like everyone knows, I download everything. And some of his songs are nice.
(oh, word of warning: some songs are from one or two decades ago)

I will make myself a Renji icon
Jan. 18th, 2005 10:26 amDuring the day, I stalk the Recent Comments page which tells me who has replied to my journal posts, and whose posts I have replied to. What it doesn't tell me is if anyone has responded to replies I've made in other journals. I do remind myself to check every now and then, but if I do not reply th those whilst I seem very active on my own LJ, well this is why. ^^"
Lacking sleep because I could not physically use my bed until an hour past my normal weekday sleeping time.
Do I owe anyone anything (apart from money)? Scans, photos, MP3s, RP tags, fics? If I do, please remind me.
( Randomness on WTF-fic (YAY I'M A LLAMA AGAIN!) )
[edit] In a recent survey 9 out of 10 hedgehogs preferred the stopping power of Bardon Hitex. I should fight for it to be laid in all roads, for the sake Niou's safety.

Zhao Ziyang dies in Beijing, aged 85
I remember very little of my childhood, but I do remember being 7 years old and sitting in front of the TV in Hong Kong (bless freedom of the news in HK) wondering why young people were on the streets of Beijing and why they were being killed. Being politically ignorant, the only thing it meant to me was the world had gone crazy. It was mad. Pure horror.
There is still a photobook at home which recorded the massacre. We still have newpaper cuttings. We put them all away but we have them. I don't know who has seen what, but the photograph of a young man ran over by a tank, that's still in my mind.
Our whole city was so shaken, seeing really for the first time how hard the Chinese government could come down on its own people. We were within swimming distance from the motherland and only a few years from the handover. But I think the real terror was, regardless of there being a handover or not, how people could treat one another like that in the modern world.
Anyway, I'm rambling. I'm just feeling this knot in my heart, reading about Zhao's death. It's brought back a lot of memories.
