GRAR EALC PAPER GRRAAAAR
So... tired... of reading essentialist tripe... about Japanese 'harmoniousness'...
I spent almost all of today doing one of four things:
1. Watching the Two Towers extended DVD and doing all my Japanese homework for next week.
2. Writing this $#&*@ critical review for EALC 298 tomorrow.
3. Not reading Kokoro like I'm supposed to. Instead, played Final Fantasy 8.
4. Organizing our DVD/video game collection so it's not a huge dusty clusterfuck of loose CDs and mysterious cases.
But, on the upside I now have 九万円!! It's very pretty. Kenny and I played "Pin the Moustache on the Meiji-era Writer". Well, in my fantasy world we did anyway.
Man, I can't wait to be on that plane over the Pacific, until I'm 4000 miles and 2 days away from this place. I feel like Strong Sad on caffiene: "I feel great! I feel great! I feel terrible. I feel great!"
...Did you just say parakeet?
And now for that meme everyone is doing. Put your entire MP3 collection on random and write down the first fifteen songs that play, no matter how lame.
1. Incubus - Drive [I have good memories of Dan and this song.]
2. Final Fantasy - The Prelude [a classic]
3. They Might Be Giants - Particle Man [another classic - artifact from IMSA days]
4. Flogging Molly - Every Dog Has Its Day [Sarah has the best taste in music]
5. Xenogears - Gathering Stars [never actually played it]
6. Evanescence - You [a good band, actually]
7. Persona 2 Batsu - BGM 2 [nice and generic]
8. Barenaked Ladies - A [best song ever]
9. Sonic Adventure 2 - Lovely Gate 3 [blah]
10. Rissle - Nintendo [LAME]
11. Stroke 9 - City Life [some bad memories with this one]
12. Utada Hikaru - Automatic [w00t]
13. GLAY - Beautiful Dreamer [I'm ashamed I have this]
14. Blues Traveler - But Anyway [go mainstream, yeah!]
15. MxPx - I'm Okay, You're Okay [for the popular kids]
Okay, bed is calling me. Goodnight, goodnight! Hope you all have sweet dreams.
