Big Ol' Post

Well, first off. I want to say that I've been MIA from LJ for a bit. I was off dealing with some personal crap (i.e. feeling utterly depressed over things out of my control) and then off cheering myself up with some great music, fantastic wine, and beautiful people. But I did read everyone's journal and I wish I could comment more but I'm too sleepy to do so. So apologies to all.

On to the RL crap. Work has been kickin' my butt but it should level out soon so I can spend time procrastinating and spammin' y'all. Life has been a rollercoaster lately and I'm finally off that damn ride. But onto the more fun stuff.

I had a nice calm Monday evening after a hectic work day. Sat there and watched a good chunk of Initial D, the Chinese Live Action movie. Jay Chou...total cutie and pretty much what I thought Fujiwara Takumi would be if he was a real character (even though Takumi is a lot like Keanu Reeves stiff acting). But the RACING!!! *dies* omg, veilsdegto, you must watch this with me. The Rx7FC, the Skyline, and the Lancer Evo III....*GUUUUUUUUUH*....and the drifting. *watches with huge eyes* love it. If I wasn't scared of the downhill, I would so learn how to drift off the Santa Cruz Mountains. But I'm a scaredy-cat and don't fancy dying in the mountains nor crashing my car.

myrafur, I am sending it later today so that you and _luxa can watch it and squee along with me. Although the music for the movie is different (no Eurobeats but more hip hop tracks), it's still an interesting watch, combining all three stages together. And there's SLASH possibilities between Ryosuke Takahashi and Nakazato!!! ♥

easybeef, I got our tickets to see Interpol!!!!! *cheers madly* We'll be joined by my cousin and friends. I'm totally excited!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope everyone else has a wonderful day!!!

gimme your thoughts. I want to gobble them up.

So I was driving home from work, stuck in traffic and all that good stuff when a stray thought struck me and I had to share.

Have you ever looked back at your life and found a moment in which you felt content?

Content with life. Content with how everything is going. Or content with a relationship, job, or opportunity?

How did you realize the moment? Where were you when this epiphany of calmness struck you? Does the moment involve an accomplishment? Or did revolve around a feeling? Or an event? Or around someone else who held significant importance in your life?

C'mon and spill it for me. I am insatiatably curious about it.

( I'll even start! )

Okay...now it's your turn!
