Listening to: It Ends Tonight - the All-American Rejects

These past few days, I've got my iPod busted, and I can't study nor concentrate on what I'm doing very well. See, I'm the type of student who couldn't--and wouldn't--study without any sound surrounding me. Even if I'm in the dining room far from the TV, I still like it on. I never study without any music on. So these past few days, I was pretty idle, so I decided on using the TV in our room and putting on Pride & Prejudice on the player. Nah, too boring.

I found myself singing "hopelessly devoted to yooohooohooo...." (Yak, how cheesy.). So I looked for the Grease CD. I popped it on the player, and I continued replying to my messages while reading what Captain Barbell (who is Sir Calindro, by the way.don't ask.) assigned to us.

While watching I realized that they based High School Musical on Grease. Oh what a fluke. They did a bad rendition of it too. Even if set in the 50's, Grease is forgivable for its...well, cheesy-ness. And the song's aren't so bad. Hahah. They're pretty cool, really. I loved it's introduction...the one after the prologue. When they started introducing the characters in their caricatures and stuff. Really cute. The 'toons reminded me of the Archie comics that I love to read a lot.

It stars John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John. Hahaha, and you thought John Travolta was the villain that you knew so well. He's cute in this movie. Hahah. Really cute. It'll make you laugh when you see him dance... yeah.
You'll really love the songs...like...Summer Lovin', Hopelessly Devoted and Grease Lightning.
I'm really into musicals nowadays, ain't I? I better check out Chicago.

So the next time you have your High School Musical withdrawal check out Grease, it's a bit more nicer, if you're in for the "oldies". ;) Peace, mates.
