Trick or Treat!!! We Want Candy Too!

Isn't that the cutest thing? XD

Well, I did keep my word. Today's the second Halloween Special. And although there's no M&M's to go around (eye candy, anyone?), at least I wasted 5 minutes of my busy life to write this god-forsaken post. And it's the thought that means the most. Right?

Yours Truly,

Hallie Sasaki

So, keep tuned, cuz who knows, there might be another Halloween surprise waiting for you tomorrow. ^.^

{Cape No. 7 海角七號} Movie Soundtrack

{INTRO}

Just when I thought that all the CN7 fever was over, I bought the movie soundtrack! It's totally cool, & definitely worth buying. As you see, it looks just like the parcel inside the movie, except it's made of cardboard, not mailing paper. Plus, it includes the seven letters written by the teacher. On the back of the letters, are the lyrics to all of the songs. It's pretty nice, considering the fact that the company wasn't even going to make a movie soundtrack, because they didn't think that CN7 would be such a hit.

{COST}

Anyways...it costs 349 NT, if you buy it at Costco. That is about $13.50 US. But if you buy it on YesAsia, it will cost you $16.99 US dollars, plus shipping. Well, if you don't live in Taiwan, I guess you don't have any other choice.

{SOUNDTRACK}

1. 第一封信/The First Letter
   
2. Don't Wanna (范逸臣/Van)
3. 第二封信/The Second Letter
4. 愛你愛到死/Love You Until Death (楊蕎安&林曉培)
5. 第三封信/The Third Letter
6. Mainu Sun哪裡去, 你? (丹耐夫)
7. 第四封信/The Fourth Letter
8. 給女兒/For my Daughter
9. 第五封信/The Fifth Letter

13. 第七封信-情書/The Seventh Letter-Love Letter

*Bonus Track: 1945 (純音樂版/Instrumental Version)

So, last thing. This really rocks!!!

隱形的翅膀/Invisible Wings MV (張韶涵/Angela Zhang)

If you were bored enough to input 張韶涵 inside the Youtube search bar, you might find that this video would be the first on the list. Oh, fine. Second.

But either way, it's the first MV. So yup. Even though it's an old song, it's still nice to listen to! Plus, I want to tribute this post to Angela Zhang~ who has taken a break because of her recent heart attack. Let's all hope she'll quickly recover! XD

{Turn Left, Turn Right} 向左走·向右走

Well, yes, I haven't exactly seen this movie. They do have a blurry version online on Youtube. The only reason I haven't watched it yet was that my friend said she has the DVD, except that it disappeared into thin air, but she'll keep an eye out for it. Well, it's worth the wait to watch a clear version...

Meanwhile, I have read the book. I'm sure you've all heard people go," Oh, the book's better than the movie, etc." And since I haven't seen the movie, I can't really argue this one. But I have to say, the book is beautifully illustrated. Really. It's not just a boring black and white chapter book with tiny print, but a book with amazing pictures. And I know most of you stopped reading picture-books a long time ago, but trust me, this is worth it!

~PLOT~

Leung plays a translator, and Kaneshiro plays a violinist, who live parallel lives and appear to be perfect for each other, but somehow fate seems to keep them apart. They live in the same apartment building, but never meet, because when they leave, one turns left, and one turns right.

OMG!!! Takeshi Kaneshiro is inside~ XD (adds 10 points)
And... it's filmed in Taiwan! Which justs adds 10 more points! ^.^

Well. I'm going to be watching this movie...in the very near (or not!) future. When I do, I'll write a full review~ until then,

TTFN (tata for now)
