I'm supposed to be working right now... subtitling a few videos...
I've just learned to subtitle videos in less than a day (all by myself, no less!) using stuff that fansubbers use and after getting through a few software knots, the rest should be smooth-sailing...
But, as usual, I can't concentrate on a single task for too long and so here I am. Thank goodness that I can work at home cuz the office environment does get a little distracting. I've been reading My Sister's Keeper cuz of the movie, and I want to go watch it after... If it remains loyal to the book, it should be pretty good.
But, movies based on books are rarely what you expect them to be, so I'm going to go in the theatre with an open mind. You learn to separate the book from the movie and appreciate the story from all three angles (the book, the movie and the movie based on the book), especially since everyone will have different interpretations of it. Hey it's a free world.
Meanwhile, a few songs I've been listening to:
Zhang Liyin's 晴天/雨天
Finally! After a long wait, the song is finally out! Although the MV's a little lacklustre compared to her previous movie-like MVs. It's a picture slideshow for crying out loud! SM Ent, can't you just spend another 50% more of the original budget and make it live action? Although, from another angle, it does have the 'reminiscing' concept... and it better be... Liyin's voice has matured... and she looks nice with Donghae in the MV.
Taeyeon & Sunny - Sarangingeolyo
I like Taeyeon's voice, and Sunny's is beginning to grow on me... If only they would do such stuff for their album, that would be nice... maybe even Tracy would like them better...
Jessica feat. Onew - One Year Later
I like the imagery of the song. I put this performance up cuz the Onew's voice broke in the other, although it wasn't that obvious. I usually like duets. Jessica's popularity has been on the rise lately... I didn't really like her at first, but she's one of the few SNSD members that I would follow.
Super Junior KRY & Yoo Young Jin - Sorry Sorry R&B remix
Doesn't sound like a remix, more like a song of its own. KRY should do more songs like this.
