Like an open book. Of photography.

From redbrunja:

1) Post ten of any pictures currently on your hard drive that you think are self-expressive.
2) NO CAPTIONS!!! It must be like we're speaking with images and we have to interpret your visual language just like we have to interpret your words.
3) They must ALREADY be on your hard drive - no googling or flickr! They have to have been saved to your folders sometime in the past. They must be something you've saved there because it resonated with you for some reason.
4) You do NOT have to answer any questions about any of your pictures if you don't want to. You can make them as mysterious as you like. Or you can explain them away as much as you like.

I assume the last rule means I can talk about them if anyone has any questions? So if you're curious about something, ask away! There is commentary lurking in my brain. :)

ahaha I totally recognize the "baka ja nai" one. Is that Orange Days??

[topazera.livejournal.com]

Yes, that is from Orange Days! I loved that show. ...Wait, did I know you watched Asian dramas? I should have guessed but I don't think I did! :D

[lnbw.livejournal.com]

I've actually barely watched any, so if you'd asked I probably would have said no. It happened that Orange Days was airing when I was in Japan, though, so all the international dorm girls would gather and watch together! It was pretty awesome, and I still love the opening song...

I've watched bits of a couple K-dramas, too, but wasn't a huge fan. (Of course, I'm not a big TV watcher even on American TV, except for a few shows I'm obsessed with.) One had people who worked in an amusement park? That's all I remember. XD

Oh my god, Jun scared me when I got to him because it was no people and then HOLY CRAP Jun with spaghetti, what?! Haha. I really like the third one with the books, that isn't your room is it? I would be so jealous, it's beautiful. I'm kind of curious about all of them but I don't know what to ask? Except I guess, what is up with that second picture? It's weird~~!

[topazera.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, I love that Jun picture because he's attacking the camera even more than usual and that's saying something. He just wants to share his love of spaghetti with everyone!

I wish that was my room! That's exactly what my ideal room would look like, a warm-colored, organic cave to surround me with books and other media.

That second picture is from an vintage photo community and I just love it for being so weird and I see a "raised by wolves" implication. Which fits me, since I get a lot of my quirks from my family. :)

I told you I had lots of thoughts on these! Heee, thanks for indulging me! ♥

The Jun one is making me LOL forever. "HERE HAVE THIS SPAGETTI! I WANT TO SHARE! STOP RUNNING AWAY FROM ME!" Oh Jun. He's just a poor, misunderstood soul.

I'd like to know more about the sixth picture! And the eighth one. Those are some badass drawers.

[topazera.livejournal.com]

Oh Jun. He's just a poor, misunderstood soul.
Oh Jun, everyone just assumes your offer of love comes with a side of hitting upside the head. I love that Jun picture, I totally imagine that's the face we make irl when we foist our love for a new drama on people.

The sixth picture is from Regina Spektor's Fidelity vid and I saved it because it was pretty! But it's here because it represents my tendency to create pretty things and then keep them to myself! Because I'm a crazy perfectionist. I'm so glad you came along or dorama_watch would still be on a shelf. ♥

Aren't those drawers awesome? I totally want that table. It's from my trolling design blogs/Stylehive days (did you ever get into that site? I could totally imagine you there!). Also, it represents how much I love organization and sorting. Sometimes. I go back and forth.

Thanks for questioning me dude! :DD
