My Jedi Costume: CVI

Since I'll be heading, as you know, to Celebration VI, I thought I would take some new pictures of me in my Jedi Robes. :D

Favorite Song Monday: Star Wars Edition!! :D

Since I won't be here for the next two weeks(I'm leaving later this week) due to the fact that I'm going on vacation (Celebration VI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D) so I thought, since I'm going to a huge Star Wars convention, I'd post Star Wars related stuff this week. So today I'm going to post all of my favorite Star Wars songs :D


Duel of the Fates!!!! :D :D The totally epic song that plays during some of the coolest battle scenes


Duel of the Fates Remix. It's a video and it's really good! :D


The Star Wars main theme :D Who doesn't love it?


Victory Celebration :D Definitely the happiest song in Star Wars. It's so wonderful! I actually played this as my recital piece for piano one year


Binary Sunset, also called The Force theme. One of the most beautiful songs of the Star Wars soundtrack.
It truly shows the best of Star Wars in it's brilliance.


Augie's Great Municipal Band. One of my favorite happy songs in Star Wars! :D It's so wonderful! :D


Across the Stars, such a beautiful piece :) One of my favorite softer pieces from Star Wars :)


Battle of the Heroes :D


Imperial March, a.k.a Darth Vader's Theme

Across the Universe

(Just so you all know, I read this book a couple of weeks ago)

When I heard about this book on a book reviewers, I was very intrigued. With the plethora of fiction directed towards teenagers bombarded with such over used story-lines like Dystopias and paranormal romance(which I'm getting rather tired of) I was happy to see an actual, recently published, Science Fiction book directed towards teen readers since it is my favorite genre and there are precious few novels written for people my age. The plot line of a generation ship traveling through space sounded fascinating(I remember back when I first about generation ships and feeling that desire to go to the stars) so I put it on my list of books to read and eventually went and got it at the library.

Sadly, it wasn't as good as I was expecting. I had been hoping for a new, fresh story to read and enjoy put the book slide into the predictable re-hash of a society being run by a bad, corrupt government in the future and a forced romance between the two teen-aged protagonists. 

The book wasn't horrible by any chance, of course; there were some things and characters that I did like in the story, but the problems just grated on my nerves so I wasn't able to enjoy it as much as I would have. I also really didn't like the cover I had(mine was different than the one above) since it had two people about to kiss and that is not something I want to carry around(Bleh! :P)

Brief summary of the book: The story begins with a girl named Amy Martin being frozen(since the journey will take three hundred years) along with her mom and dad who are both going on a ship called the "Godspeed" which is heading to a inhabitable planet to colonize it. Besides the frozen scientists and military personal are hundreds of thousands of people whose descendants will help colonize the world. However, Amy is awoken violently before schedule and has to deal with the strange workings of the ship and how it is run and having to live for the next fifty-forty nine years without her parents in an alien environment while working out who woke her up and if that person will do it again.  

Story/plot line: The story is a good one, I'll give Mrs. Revis that. I started really to enjoyed the story once it got under way, especially the last third of the book where the secrets were all being revealed. If the author had given more focus on the plot and the mystery of what was happening with the people in the ship, why the leader Eldest was ruling the way he did, and why the frozens were being unplugged and created better characters instead of just piddling around, the book would have been very good. 

One thing I found interesting was that the main characters vehemently hated Eldest and his way of ruling, I actually understood where the rules came from. The whole conflict could have made for an interesting and insightful discussion on morality but instead it just petered into Eldest=evil dictator when really he seemed much more complicated than that; I was rather disappointed that Mrs. Revis decided not to explore that.

Another problem I had with the book's plot was the pacing. There were several scenes that weren't needed, like the inappropriate, evil attack on Amy by some psychos(more on that later) and the stuff where not much seemed to happen. Also, I felt like more scenes between certain characters, especially the two main ones who, who are supposed to like each other, spend very little scenes together(not that I really want to, since I found their interactions a bit boring). 

So all in all, what I wish the author had done a tighter job on her plot and had focused more on the mystery and what was going on in the ship instead of going off on little tangents that didn't have much to do with the story. I also wish I could have seen more space stuff; you could have easily taken this story out of a ship and put it onto a futuristic earth and the society would have worked out well. When I read science fiction I want there to be more than a science fiction twist to the already overdone dystopia(though this book is way better than most dystopias, so, yeah). 

Characters: Okay, so herein is where my main problem with the book lies. I It is very sad when, in fiction, the side characters are much more fascinating and likable than the main ones; however, in most stories where I like one of the side characters better, I still would consider the main character a favorite as well since they are just as interesting to read about. Sadly in this book, that isn't the case. 

Amy Martin: The female lead of our story is definitely not a character I'd like to read about. She wasn't as developed as she could have been, though she did remind me a lot of the typical teen-age girl. I wish we could have had a bit more explanation about her life and what she enjoyed; we knew she liked track and photography, but what about favorite movies, books, t.v. shows? One problem I had with her was how she was written was that she seemed to lack common sense and have an extremely short term memory which cropped up quite often in the show. For example, in the book, there is this thing called "The Season" where people all mate at around the same time (gross, I know, but I can't say what  causes it sense that would spoil some of the plot) so to begin the next generation. 

                          The first thing I didn't think was very smart of Amy was that she went off by herself when this was going on an all the people's hormones are going all insane and everything. Number 1, why would you want to be outside and around people doing it in the middle of the street? and Number 2, If you are in a place you don't know much about, why would you go off alone? Anyway, she ends up seeing this guy she'd seen staring at her talking to these other two hormone-induced men(things really; people that do that evil thing aren't even human beings) about her who ten precede to chase her. Instead of running towards the hospital where she knows she will be safe, she heads off into the cornfield(not a good idea!!!) and they catch her which is really confusing since shouldn't she be able to out run them, being in track and all? I really think this scene should not have been included; it was already apparent that the Season was wrong and disgusting and we didn't need to see something so purely evil nearly happen to her(a character named Harley finds her in time and saves her). Another thing I find annoying is the fact is, why on earth can't we, for once, in a book have the girl actually beat her attackers up? It virtually never happens since either the act is done to her or a guy comes in and saves her and beats the psychos up. 

My main reason for thinking this scene wasn't needed, however, was that, a few chapters later, Amy pretty much forgets it even happened to her(and I'm not talking about the part where she was all 'LaLa' from what was in the water). The chapter immediately afterwards fits well with the story but later on, Luthe(the main evil thing) still isn't punished and the only thing she cares about is who the murderer is(which is valid, of course) and the rules Eldest set up. Doesn't she even care about revenge? Doesn't she want to see that thing punished?! Plus, HOW COULD SHE JUST FORGET?  When that sort of thing happens, you don't cry and freak out about it for a little while and just forget about it! You'd need EXTENSIVE amounts of therapy and you'd be very scared and angry and most likely want to hurt the person very badly(read the book and watch the movie Speak for a realistic approach to the topic). Amy is really just a pushover, cloudy thinker who resembles your typical Teen Female protagonist mold which is very sad, indeed. 

Elder: While more interesting than Amy, I still didn't connect with the story's male protagonist as much as I should have. I liked how the author presented him in how he was very different than someone you'd meet from earth and how he is different than your typical male main character, though he could have been developed a whole lot more than he was(though I would definitely not consider him my type. At all).

One thing I disliked about Elder was that he was attracted to Amy mainly because she was so different looking from anyone he'd ever seen(everybody on the ship is mono-ethnic) instead of her personality(looks of course do play into attraction but personality is what solidifies the attraction into a crush). I also thought the random lusty thought the author threw in there was a bit strange and heavy handed; was that really needed? One thing that really bothered me whilst reading this novel was that he turned on his mentor Eldest way too quickly. No matter what, you always feel some sense of connection to the person that raised you. As soon as Amy pops up he immediately begins to disobey Eldest all the time instead of just sometimes and won't listen and talks badly about him all the time. I wish Mrs. Revis had shown more conflict with Elder's feelings but I guess I understand why....

Harley: My favorite character of the novel, Harley is a man in his twenties who is friends with Eldest, is an artist, and struggles with depression. Of the main cast of characters, Harley was the best done and most interesting, having a more interesting back story and more depth than the leads. I really wish Mrs. Revis had utilized him more then she did and explored more about him; actually, I think the book would have been better if she'd written it part of it from his point of view. 

The lame usage of romance: One problem with teen literature nowadays is that authors feel like they have to put it in there even if there is absolutely no chemistry between the two people involved. While I was glad that there wasn't a love triangle(YAY!! That is so overused), the romance just didn't click with me at all(but then, it rarely does since I usually can't stand romance anyways). In this book, as in countless others, the romance seemed too rushed. If your going to put romance in your story at least make it believable and have it gradually build instead of having the characters instantly want each other(since I know it's definitely not love in this book or pretty much any other teen book you pick up). I really wish Amy and Harley had paired off instead since the two actually had some chemistry and he did save her and punch Luthe in the face.

So, all in all, the book was good but it wasn't great. Mrs. Revis has a nice style of writing and she definitely has potential to write good books, but since this is new debut novel, I'll just blame it on her being a beginner at writing(All writers, including me, have been there). I also wish we could read more about the planet they will be heading to instead of just life on the ship; I have a fascination with other worlds and the idea of life different than ours and I wish we could have seen some of that here.

Hope you have a good day and May the Force be with you...Always

Interview with Misty Kasumi *

A while back I started an interview with my sister, Misty Kasumi*, from The Mistiniess of the Furture- Actor, Writer, Dreamer - http://actor-writer-dreamer.blogspot.com/ Thank you for letting me interview you, Misty :D



Just so everyone knows, I did most of this interview a couple of months ago and the last little bit yesterday. I'll tell you when the change occurs. :D And we did this interview over Facebook chat so the font might change at random times.

Me: Ready for the Interview?
Misty: Yes

Me: Okay, so I'm going to ask several questions pertaining to your interests and such. First Question,  what do you like about Pokemon and why is it your favorite fictional story? 

Misty: Why do I like Pokemon? I like Pokemon because it centers around a world where Pokemon have powers and they can "save the day" basically, unlike here in reality where we can't say- "Use flame thrower on those bad guys over there!" Because that is one thing I'd like to be able to do. I wish I had the powers of Pokemon. That'd be AWESOME!!! I also like it because of the characterization, plot, and the basic well rounded idea of it all. I LOVE Ash and Misty. And Brock is an idiot. LOL I'm sad he's not in the newest season... I really like Pokemon because it is made in Japan, it has Pikachu, and it is an anime. (I got into Pokemon when I was ten or eleven, because of the DS game- Pokemon Diamond.) It was my first game and I REALLY REALLY like it!!!!! I also own MOST of the games that Game Freak has made, and I can't wait for the two newest editions- Pokemon Black and White 2. I'M GONNA PLAY THOSE GAMES!!!! BOOYAH!!!!

Really, there aren't any words I can use to explain why I like it, it's so hard to explain... There's just this thing about it, and no one can describe it. Say, you like something SOO much, and you can't tell your best friend why. There is just this feeling that you get from watching it, that tells you it is just...ARGHHH I can't describe it either!!!! But I'll try my best... OK...

To me, it is a classic, like all those very good stories out there-Lord of the rings, Harry Potter, Narnia, Avatar the last airbender, and many many others. Because there is just this feeling you get from watching, reading etc..and you just KNOW that it is the BEST!!! (OK me done now. ) NEXT QUESTION! QUESTION LADY! I even use Pokemon for my Facebook profile picture!!!!!!! I AM A TOTAL OBSESSED FREAK!!! XD

Me: LOL, thanks for the long answer And I can tell your an obsessed freak about it >:) hehe. Okay, next question, who are your favorite characters in Pokemon and what do you like about them?

Misty: BOOYAH! OKKKKK WHYYYY DIIIID  YOUUUU HAAAAVE TOOOO ASKKKK THAAAAT QUESTIONNNN?!??!??? DAAAAAAT ISSSSS HAAAARD.

just kidding, it isn't. I like (in order): Misty, Ash, May/Dawn/Iris (since those three are on

an equal level) Brock, and that is it. 

I like Misty, because her personality reminds me of me sometimes, and sometimes I act like a total idiot like Ash. XD And then I act like May/Dawn/Iris because of how they are in the T.V. show. Brock is HILARIOUS AND THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT!!! Anything else?

HELLOOOOOO?  Where did my interviewer go?  Is this a commercial break!??!?!?! I wasn't INFORMED!?!!!!!!

Me: Sorry about that. It wasn't popping up. Next question, Which season of Pokemon is your favorite and which movie is your favorite?

Misty: HMMMMMMMM. OK. UMM. My favorite Movies for each of the different girl characters are- Pokemon movie 2000, Pokemon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, and Pokemon: The Jewel of Life.

My favorite season...umm I like 1, 3, 4, and 5. Also 6, 7, and 11. I kinda stopped

watching it at 15, because Brock is gone.. I WANT TO WATCH IT BUT I'M SO BEHIND IT SEEMS DAUNTING.



Me: Which Pokemon theme song is your favorite? 

Misty: HMMMMMM.... 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 11. Also 3.

Me: Which pairings in Pokemon do you ship and why? 

Misty: Ok, I am a really random person when it comes to this LOL.
I like: Pokeshipping(Ash x Misty)
Contestshipping (Drew x May)
Penguinshipping (Dawn x Kenny)
Ferriswheelshipping  (N x White/Touko)
Chesshipping (Black/Touya x White/Touko)
Flavescentshipping (Iris x Trip)
Wishfulshipping  ( Iris x Cilan )
Almiashipping  ( Kate x Kellyn )
Rangershipping  ( Solana x Lunick )
Obliviashipping (Summer x Ben)
Then, I'm okay with reading fanfiction or watching tributes to- Advanceshipping, Ikarishipping, and Pearlshipping. But I know that to me they aren't going to happen, but it is interesting to see another point of view. I'm open to any shipping really, I just believe in certain ones. I might actually write a Ikarishipping fanfiction some time.. OK done.



Me: Nice, I like those as well. Are there any you dislike?

Misty:
Hmmmm no, I don't think so. I'm just worried about Negaishipping ( Ah x Iris ) At the moment. But I don't mind it really.
I just think some are goofy. Like Harley x May(I don't know the name of that one).

Me: Yeah, I don't see that either since Harley hates her and  wants to make her life a living hell. Which Pokemon is your favorite?



 Misty: HMMMMMM I like PIKACHU!!!! PIKACHU RULES! I also like all the legendaries, and all the starter Pokemon from all the regions.

Misty: Hehehehehe...I knew you'd ask that question. They're alright. I see
nothing wrong with them. They're just another house.

Next question, who do you not like in Harry Potter?

Misty: ...... Well, I don't like anyone who killed anyone, or any bad guys.

Misty: The last one... grrrrr

Me: I agree Who are your favorite characters in Narnia? (books and films)

Misty: Lucy, Jill, Susan (not later though), Polly, and Aravis.

Me: Are there any characters you don't like in the Narnia books/films?

Misty:The bad guys.

Me: Why do you like Avatar: The Last Airbender and what got you to want to watch it?

Misty: I like Avatar, because of the fantasy elements and the ACTUAL elements as well as the Avatar! I got to watch it because I saw the commercial for the movie that came out a while back (it sucked) and looked it up. Seeing a TV show, I decided to watch it and did.
Me: Which season was your favorite of the show and what were some of your favorite episodes?(I agree, by the way. This show rocks!)

Misty: OK I liked season 3 the BEST. As well as the first episode, the Secret Tunnel episode (ep2 of season 2), the mini Zuko adventures in season3, the invasion, the last four end battle episodes, and the Ember Island Players.

Me: Oh yes, Season 3 was definitely the best! Who were your favorite characters in ATLA and why do you like them?
Misty: Katara, Zuko, Sokka, Toph, Aang, Suki, Azula, and the firelord because Mark Hamill who played Luke Skywalker voiced him. >:D 

 

Me: Are there any characters you don't like in ATLA?

Misty: Ehh...annoying characters, and bad guys.

Me: What do you think of the new Avatar(Legend of Korra) show so far? Who are your favorite characters?

 

Misty: I think it is pretty good, but I'm REALLY sad that Aang and the others are dead (minus Katara). I like Korra, Tenzin and Chief Beifong the best.

Me: I agree with you! I like Tenzin, Chief Bei Fong, and Korra the best as well! Next subject, what is your favorite season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer so far and what is your favorite episode from this show and its spin-off Angel? 

Misty:So far, I like season 2 and 3 the best. 4 is just a little off to me, and season 1's animation is pretty bad. LOL my favorite episodes....I like mostly
all of them, except ones with SPIDERS! I DO NOT like spiders....

Angel is cool, and he's not such a wimp in his series as he was in Buffy. I like the fight scenes and the mystery. He is the best character. Cordelia is hilarious and Doyle makes me sad. I'm still mad about that episode. But I don't know what episode is my favorite yet...

Me: Who are your favorite characters in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and who are your favorite characters in Angel?

Misty: BUFFY!!!! Giles, Willow, Xander, and Angel. On Angel's show: Angel, Cordelia, Doyle, and Wesley.

Me: Do you think that Willow changed in season 4 and what do you think about it?
Misty: I can't tell yet. I'm not as far along as you might think. Me: I think you'll see it my the time the series is over. What is your opinion of Spike?

Misty:OH MY GOSH HE IS THE MOST HILARIOUS GUY ON THE SHOW HE IS ALMOST MY FAVORITE CHARACTER! (I forgot to mention him a few questions back! *Slams head into wall and makes a big dent.* OKAY I punished myself.) LOL. I think that Spike is one complicated character, and the actor pulled him off perfectly.

Me: I agree (I was wondering why you hadn't mentioned him). Who do you think has been the best "Big Bad" on Buffy so far?

Misty: SPIKE. DUH

Me: I thought so Next topic. What are some other t.v shows you like?

Misty: The Amazing Race, Glee(some of it), Kyle XY, and North and South.

Me: Cool I would recommend that you watch Once Upon a Time, it is EPIC!! Okay, so who are your favorite characters on Glee?

Misty: All right, I'll watch it. UMM I like Rachel, when she is not annoying..

Finn, later in the series when HE is not annoying EITHER. Quinn, for the small little bit of time she isn't annoying. Kurt at first. Basically everyone when they go into their "OK" phase. But once they start whining it gets irritating.

Me: Yeah, I know what you mean I think you'd like the new character, Joe, he's pretty cool. I also like Sam(because he's a science fiction geek). Who do you like better, Peeta or Gale?

Misty: OK.
PEETAAAAAA.

GALE IS ANNOYINGGG!

Me: What are some other books/series you like?

Misty:Pokemon. Pokemon. Pokemon. Pokemon. Pokemon. Pokemon. Pokemon. Pokemon. Pokemon. 

LOL just kidding, Pokemon isn't a book series.

Me: XD Okay, so what are some books you like?

Misty: Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Knife of Never Letting Go, Pokemon manga, the Hunger Games trilogy, the Uglies series, Junior Jedi knights series, the Underland Chronicles, the Sister's Grimm series, and some novels such as: Breadcrumbs, The Silver Crown, and Magick.

Me: Who are some bands/singers you like?

Misty: (There are lots of books I forgot to mention, but I can never think of books I like when I'm asked. :p) OK I like- Breaking Benjamin, Casting Crowns, Beethoven, Bach, Clementi, Avril Lavigne, Kelly Clarkson, Three Doors Down, and techno music.  

Me: What is your favorite song(s) by Breaking Benjamin?

(The rest of this interview was done yesterday. WARNING, there are spoilers for Once Upon A Time ahead.)

Misty: I like: Give Me a sign, Until the End, I Will not Bow, and Anthem of the Angels.

Me: Okay, so now that I've got you into Once Upon A Time, what are your favorite episodes(though I already know the top one, of course)

Misty: Course you already know, but....SKIN DEEP is the BEST EVERRRRRRR!!!! I just love how they turned the story of Beauty and the Beast into something so different! The way that Rumpelstiltskin is the"Beast" is just genius! And it was as good as I staked my expectations. My other favorite was the finale. I really enjoyed the last fight with the dragon, and then when magic came back!
Oops! I'm giving spoilers. Can you put up a spoiler alert/? 

All I can say is WATCH ONCE UPON A TIME!!!! And if have, WATCH IT AGAIN!! 

Me:Haha, yes I agree!! So, who are your favorite characters and least favorite characters?

Misty: I really like all the characters (even though some of them are evil, but they also have back stories that make you feel bad for them) but my favorites are probably Emma, Rumpelstiltskin, Belle, Regina, Snow White, Prince

Charming, August, Baefire, and Henry.

Me: So, which shippings do you like and which do you dislike?
Misty: Umm, I really like all canon shippings. Especially Rumbelle!!! It's the best ever! They're just perfect for each other!!
I'm glad the creators made it. And I'm interested in how Belle is going to act in season 2. She wont be so innocent anymore.
Well, Regina DID lock her up for 25 years without any contact to anybody.  

 

Me: Were there any you didn't like?

Misty: Shippings? No. Just some that fans have made up that DON'T mix

 

Me: What are some things you are looking forward to seeing in season 2? 

Misty: I'm looking forward to see how everyone deals with magic on Earth, Rumpel and Belle's anger towards Regina, the supposed separation between Emma and Snow from Charming, Henry, and Red, whose side the Mad Hatter will be on, Mulan coming into the show.....and Captain Hook's appearance. >:D

Me: Is there anything you hope happens in season 2?
Misty: Hmmm, I'm not really sure. But I want to see more RumBelle I just want to see what happens next!!!!

The cliff hanger from season 1 was soooo good! The suspense is killing me!! XD

Me: Who are your favorite characters in Fruits Basket?

Misty: It's obvious!! I like Tohru, EVERY Sohma in the whole family( I really really like Yuki, Kyo, Hatori, Shigure, and Ayame) And Tohru's friend Uotani and Hanajima. 

Me: What fruits Basket episodes were your favorite?

Misty: I really liked the last three, and a few episodes in the middle that showed Hatori's backstory, Ayame's stupidity, and Tohru/Kyo/Yuki scenes, Yuki/Kyo arguing, and anything funny.

Me: Were there any episodes you didn't like?
Misty: Hmm. Well, I liked them all really. I just liked some better than others.
Me: Okay, before I finish the interview, are there any other topics you want to bring up?

Misty: No that I'm aware of, I think you covered everything.

Me: Okay, so concludes the interview!

Misty: Yeah!! Thanks for interviewing me ~ Misty

Me: You're welcome

Hope you enjoyed the interview! May the Force be with you! :D
