Lurker

feversxmirrors @feversxmirrors (84) • United States 20 Aug 07

Does anyone else feel like they're just a lurker on lj? I mean, I blog once in a great while, but I mainly like to just read my friend's entries. I rarely post comments, either! My friends probably think I don't go on much...but I...

girlontheside Hahahah yes. I still post there regularly, probably about several times a month even if it's just a one-liner or something totally random. Just when I feel the urge to share it with people or want some feedback regarding buying a gadget or whatever. There are...

girlontheside I just watched Bee Season on DVD which stars Richard Gere, Juliet Binoche and Flora Cross. I initially thought it was just another spelling bee- and feel-good movie, but it was so much more complex and deeper that that. I really enjoyed it but I'm still trying...

Top 3 movies

acmepride @acmepride (1546) • United States 19 Sep 07

I limited it to only 3 films so that I could extract the cream of the cream, if you will. So, what are the three best movies you've ever watched? Kindly include the directors, if possible.

girlontheside In no particular order: 1. Almost Famous (Cameron Crowe) 2. Lost In Translation (Sofia Coppola) 3. Love Actually (Richard Curtis) - I am such a cheeseball! Hahahaha. But man, I swear I can watch this film dozens of times and never get tired of it. I love...

What do you think of the new format?

thisgirl @thisgirl (35) • United States 23 Aug 07

How do you feel about this next season and the fact that it will begin 5 years later from where the last season left off? I'm excited and think it'll actually give the show a chance to get some decent ratings.

girlontheside I think that it's a great idea because it'll allow them to explore different plot lines, character developments and formats for the show. Because if they chose to show what it would've been like for them in a college setting, I think they'd be trapped or...

What the capacity of your Ipod?

lunnobanks @lunnobanks (102) • Brazil 14 Apr 07

I'll buy one 40gb, when I win a lot of money with mylot. And you, what the capacity of your Ipod?

girlontheside I have a 60GB iPod video. I love it! It's more than enough for my music and video files, yes. But I've also been using it as an external hard drive so it's starting to fill up.

Have you been or will you be going to a John Mayer concert?

SereneSecrets @SereneSecrets (166) • United States 15 Apr 07

I'll be going to see John Mayer at the Hollywood Bowl in CA in June. I'm in the 6th row and I'm so excited! I've been a fan since he first came out and this is my first chance to see him live. Have you been to a John Mayer...

girlontheside I watched his concert her at Sydney (Australia) just a couple of weeks ago and it was AMAZING. It was a Continuum tour and he sang almost all of the songs from that album, although I was wishing he'd sung more from Room for Squares because that's my favorite...

Do you like John Mayer's new stuff or old stuff better?

littletoolate @littletoolate (36) • Australia 30 Mar 07

I think most John Mayer fans would agree with me when I say that his music has changed quite a bit over the years. I have to say I prefer his music from around 2002 ('Room for Squares' and some of 'Heavier Things') to his bluesy,...

girlontheside I LOVED Rooms for Squares. It was such a definitive album for me back in high school, I cannot count the nights I listed to every single song over and over again and pored over the lyrics. Haha, but yeah, I really liked every single song there. :) Heavier...

auburn @auburn (15) • Philippines 23 Mar 07

girlontheside I have. It's one of my favorite acoustic versions of any song EVER. I wish they actually had other acoustic versions of their other songs, but I don't think they don't. That'd be really cool, I think.

DID we get the closure that the characters deserve?

joanna08 @joanna08 (394) • Philippines 17 Mar 07

the series finale aired a long time ago.. what are your thoughts? did that answer our questions? or did it just left us hanging..

5 responses

girlontheside I think that if there was one thing the season finale really succeeded in, it was bringing closure to the series after four seasons. Everyone pretty much resolved their issues and had their own happy endings, which I'm thinking most of the show's viewers...

Between the Pages of a Used Book

galatea @galatea (686) • Philippines 4 Mar 07

A good book, a book you've been looking for, a book you can't afford to buy brandnew, a book you never thought existed, found in the neverending stacks and layers and shelves of a used-book store is like being rewarded after a day...

girlontheside I love how second-hand bookstores not only invite but practically expect you to spend a lot of time inside them thumbing through book spines and squinting your eyes upon stacks and stacks of books looking for those you just cannot wait to bring back home. And...

any predictions? I am just waiting for Jim to propose to Karen. They seem to still be doing really well.

girlontheside I think Roy is going to hurt Jim, or confront him at least. Karen and Jim do seem to be really doing well, but I think they're going to experience some problems soon. Just a hunch, or well maybe because I've also been more of a Jim-Pam fan, so. Haha. Next...

Who is your favorite character on the show?

ugachaka @ugachaka (297) • United States 10 Jan 07

Hot girls aside, my favorite character became Riggins once he got his act together and committed himself to the team. He only did it to be with Lyla and he's slipped a couple times since then, but he's one of the true tough guys...

girlontheside This is one of those shows where you feel a certain affinity with almost everyone in the whole cast, and you love (and hate) them for certain reasons. However, if I really had to pick, it'd definitely be Matt Saracen. I love how they show his struggles and...

Worst Book Ever

Transformed @Transformed (1259) • United States 13 Mar 07

Have you ever read a book that everyone just PROMISED you would be great, yet getting through it was sheer torture? For me, that would be a book called Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie. I tried to get through it, but got so...

girlontheside Mine was Chuck Palahniuk's Diary. I've been hearing so many people quote lines and rave about his books (he wrote Fight Club as well), and I just had to see what all the fuss was about. Maybe Lullaby wasn't his best book, but it just had me cringing the whole...
