I like this idea!

[promiseoftin.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I added the restaurants category this year cos I love trying new places!

[jasonishibashi.livejournal.com]

Yep, stealing it too. It's really difficult for me to get to the theatre, and I'm dying to see Looper (I'm a huge JGL fan), and really want to see Djanjo Unchained, too.

It's funny, Moby-Dick and Watership Down are two books I tried and never could get very far in, though Moby-Dick was for a class. I did love Richard Adams' Maia, though that took about 100 pages for me to get into.

I fell in love with Never Let Me go and The Alchemist. Those 2 are in my top list of favorite novels. You got pretty good taste in books. I lolled so much at This is the End and The Hangover series. And wow I envy you for witnessing multiple live performances in just one year. lucky girl :)

[promiseoftin.livejournal.com]

I did quite like both those books! :)

I didn't like "Hangover 3," but "This Is the End" was AMAZING. THAT ENDING, haha.

Yeah, I am very, very spoiled when it comes to concerts. There's no better city to catch live music than Los Angeles.

Guess I said something to offend you?
