Hey, you.

Cloud
I could start off with the usual "I'm so sorry blog that I've neglected you so" or "Oh wow, it's been a long time since I last blogged =O =O" or even "zomg! he posts!", but no, instead I shall start off by listing the phrases I will not start off with.

Instead, I shall tell you, dearest bloggy dear, about how I've FINISHED TRIALS.

Yup, you heard correctly. I am succumbing to the awfully conformist tradition of celebrating the end of the bad. I mean, it's not like everyone else had to rub it in that they had finished trials on Thursday, or even Wednesday, or some even as early as Tuesday or Monday. No, this isn't a way to strike envy in those who haven't finished, because there isn't anyone (from my school) who hasn't finished trials, unless there's some poor bugger who missed the Business Studies exam. But anywaaay...

This is the first time in -ages- that I've stayed up past 1am. I've been sleeping early like a good boy so I would be awake during exams. But now, I don't have to! Wheee.

RICE Rally is tomorrow. Should be fun!

I just caught an ant crawling on my arm. He paid for what he did >=(

Bye for now!

I feel the sudden urge to bitch about someone/something. I don't know what to bitch about though. There are so many retards on the internet that it's a wonder they managed to find themselves online.

The stupid is killing my brain. Grarwar.

motivated? no.

Someone really needs to invent interesting homework. Or invent me the machine that will MOTIVATE me to do my homework.

Or someone can just WAKE UP FROM THEIR NAP so I, uhh, feel motivated to work. Yeah, that makes sense. Totally.

A Weekend In The City - Bloc Party

Cloud
In an effort to expand my musical taste, I obtained this album at the request of Sid. I youtubed the first song, and was hooked. Such a delectably enjoyable album. It's got beat. It's got mellow. Ultimate boppy chill. The vocalist is teh sex <3. And! Asian drummer! Wheeeee

I should blog about Stars as well. Perhaps when I have a better grasp of their awesomeness.

Sorry, no musical analysis today. I'm all mellowed out. *sways to the beat*

No more emo hair

Cloud
So I got a haircut.
Pictures you say?
Okay!

First of all, despite the fear of colliding with certain cliches and allusions of lame-ness, I'd like to say sorry for neglecting you these few weeks bloggy-dear. It's just been soo hectic the past few weeks, what with school, and homework, and....Ok who am I kidding. I was lazy. Okay? Happy? You can punish me now =(

So now that I have decided to post in you, I needed something to talk about. Evie suggested physics, but I don't know enough about physics to make an informed post on it. I was considering ranting on about something trivial such as love and emotions, but I don't think such trivialities are worthy of this blog right now. While I -have- been rather contemplative about such issues as of late, I don't think they warrant any sort of rant/outburst. I will go on to say that I love not having any emotional attachments. It's so nice and free. You do miss certain...aspects of it, but then again, not having certain other aspects far outweigh the positive aspects. Now I'm just rambling. Blargh.

So what else? A list! Of the anime I am following:
- Nodame Cantabile
- Kanon
- Code Geass
- Bleach
- Death Note (barely)

Anime to-watch list:
- Honey and Clover II
- Haibane Renmei
- Manami Straight
- FLCL
- plus many many many more ><

What else happened? The creation of <3. Yes indeedy. x)

my inner fangirl

Cloud
I'll post a post I posted on unplug for records sake. I think it shows just how much of a fangirl I am.

She can have ideals, fine, but she's going to be in control of the entire country! She needs to have a Roslin-inian turn quickly, or else I'm going to actually have to find a way to get Sunrise to kill her"



Well to be completely fair, I haven't watched Gundam Seed, so I haven't come across this archetype yet. And frankly, when considering her, I don't really take ideals into consideration. I'm imagining all these character in a war free world where everyone loves each other (except for Shirley, who gets no love). So to me, she is an ideal-less sweet and innocent pink haired sweetie. *nods*

I suppose, now that I think about it, it is her ideals in a small part that increases her appeal to me. I mean, she's my favourite Brittanian by far because of the whole pacifist/no war/hippy thing. Maybe I'm just weak. =X

"I really don't see Kallen/Lulu happening. I mean, I can see why other people see the ship, and I guess it's possible to happen (if C.C. dies (which she shouldn't) and if Shirley/Lulu gets broken up), but I just don't -see- it. What is it with you two? >_>"


If you consider it as Kallen/Lulu+Zero, then you can see where the ship is heading. She protects Zero's identity so much, and if she knew who Zero really was, she'd warm up to Lulu in no time. It's a much stronger pairing then the blasted Shirley/Lulu. I'm loyal to this ship because I sided with Kallen/Lulu from the start, before C.C was (re)introduced.

I said this to Meli last night, but C.C doesn't get nearly as much air time as she should. I'm actually really conflicted between Euphie and C.C as my favourite. It eventually came down to who had the cuter name <_<, which is why I'm dying now to know C.C's true name. I hate Sunrise for censoring those parts. Grr. Perhaps I'll alternate between the two, or have a tie. I <3 C.C's voice though, I was surprised it was the same Seiyuu as Tessa.



I've had my L's for a few weeks now. I parked for the first time today, in a car park, with cars in it. I also drove at night for the first time. 3ish hours down, 47 more to go.

Canon in D

ayu
You know I'm getting really bored
cause all songs have the same damn chords
Punk music is a joke
it's really just baroque
And I'm just paranoid nananana




It's argued that Kanon was named after Pachelbel's Canon in D. Incidentally, the original string quartet version of Canon in D can be heard in the background during Episode 1, Episode 11 and I'm told it's also heard in Episode 14 (which I have yet to see because a.f.k are being stingy about subbing it).



Behold the Pachelbel Rant (thanks to JB)



I love some of the comments on that, because they're so true.

"What's the definition of an alto?"

"A soprano who can sightread."

Ah, brilliant.
