  • 23:45 Oh hell no, Buzz Ballads on TV just put Simple Plan on the same level as Stone Temple Pilots. I don’t THINK so. #
  • 12:01 Ahahaha every single 30gb zune died at the same time today. Oh, Zune-y. What will we do with you. #

I’m baaack

I’m back!  And have been shamelessly playing Persona.  Or at least I was… I blew a fuse :P I beat a boss and got through a million cutscenes and the power just blew :( I had to do the fight all over again… luckily it went well and I was able to skip through the cutscenes pretty quickly.  Turns out there were even more cutscenes after them.  They were funny :D

Ummm so I mentioned I started listening to “The Perks of Being a Wallflower.”  Well, I got through about a half hour of the audio version when I had the sinking feeling that this book was not intended for my age group.  The character in the book was 14 and a freshman in high school.  Clue number one.  I hadn’t looked up anything about the book, so then I did and found out they sell it as young adult fiction.  Ahhh.  I got through a third of it, anyway.  I’m considering just finishing it.  But unless someone barges in with a glowing review, I think I will abstain and assume that Catcher in the Rye is a better coming-of-age story.

Even though it was Christmas gifts and all, I took my cousins out shopping for some books the day after Christmas… and refused to buy them any young adult crap.  The youngest is 17 for god’s sake.  I was reading plenty of adult fiction years before then.  Christmas or no, I will not be held responsible for their dumbing down of literature.  Bah humbug.  They got me back by then picking out stuff from the Romance section :( And then they told me they hadn’t read 1984 :( And then I found out that they were sold out of it :( So I got them Love in the Time of Cholera and some romance stuff and called it a day.  And promised to ship 1984.  I swear I have a copy but I think I’ll just buy a new one.

I have new baking pans as a gift :D They are beautiful and I hope to be baking lovely things in them.  I also got to pick out some knee-high socks from my favorite sock store.  Most are respectable argyle.  ONE pair is a horrid green with black stripes design.  I cringe when I see it :D So great.

  • 23:08 Sweet lesbian action happening over here :D Can’t wait for the video, right?? #
  • 02:00 I always have stuff to say but then I do work and whatever else and end up too tired to say anything coherent. Also my eyes hurt. #
  • 02:01 I strongly suspect that I will end up passing out while test-listening to Perks of Being a Wallflower (I know nothing about this book). #
  • 02:01 I suspect this because I intend to do it… just waiting on Final Cut to finish up my video :P More hot stuff! #
  • 02:03 Like I’m so lazy right now that instead of updating my blog I’m just writing little messages to my twitter as if it were a substitute #

  • 14:15 Baking pans! #
  • 14:15 8×8 square pans and round cake pans! #
  • 17:35 I didn’t used to like Greg Grunberg’s character on Heroes but knowing that he’s funny and cool in real life makes me like him more #
  • 01:44 Editing my latest videos, hoping to get them up soon! Keep an eye out :D #

It’s all gray

Seriously, this new Wordpress layout is so new and freaky.  It’s cool, just… new.  I’m not quite sure that when I publish this it’s going to show up on the right page.  Maybe it’ll get published to Mars or something… cuz it’s outta this world… haha sorry I needed to be horrible.

I’m editing some videos at the moment!  They are very exciting.  I asked em to put up my Christmas video on Christmas but I see it’s not there :( Sorry about that.  I’ll get that done first thing in the morning :)

I got a bunch of stuff to do, and the second I get into work mode, I get into multi-tasking mode, which somehow elevates my stress level :P No wonder I want to play Persona.

In case anyone was wondering, this is my Myers-Briggs type.  I thought it might be a good insight to my personality :P  Myers-Briggs is a really good personality test and I find that I get along well with people of certain types.  I think I’ve had very few good girl friends over the years, and I strongly suspect that they are INTP/Js.

Okay I am sleepy… I will write more later.

Edit: What is this crap.  I entered html and it comes out as code!  What have you done, wordpress!  FOR SHAME. Ohh. I was in “visual” mode. That makes more sense.

Whoa

I just upgraded my wordpress and it looks totally different.

Nothing much is going on recently :( I watched two episodes of The Wire today, finished up Up Till Now, and am currently trying to install Rosetta Stone. It says it’s updating… but I don’t trust it…

I’m eating cake at the moment :) I can’t wait to get back home so I can start working again… loser… I’m like trapped here, kinda. I wanted to start until at least Sunday, but now it seems I won’t be back until the 31st. I guess I can always catch up on all my shows and books?
