Happy (late) birthday (dinner?) to
ryu_falconis!
I'm so sorry that I couldn't make it, but lookie, I made you something!
Don't worry, you're still getting a real, tangible present! :D
~~~
So my curried darling asked me to give her a list of my top 10 favorite songs.
Oh wifey. I tried, I really did. I went through my playlists, looked through my computer and even went through the little CDs that I have. And you know what I realized? Nothing. Hah!
I don't do favorites, not when it comes to songs. I might have favorite genres, but those are basically all the musical styles that I like. And I'm pretty easy to please that way. Also, I'm a top 40 whatever-popular-at-the-moment-whore. My tates tend to run towards the bland and the unoriginal, and I follow the masses like a blind, black sheep who tries to sneak in classical music once in a while.
So what I've done is just list 10 songs that I like and can bear to listen to over and over again without self-inducing an aneurysm. Is that good enough? Here it goes:
TEN RECON MISSIONS INTO THE MOLLIFIED MUMBO-JUMBO MUSICAL MIND OF A JUNGLE OF MINE *wails* I made it through the wilderness!!!!
In no particular order:
1. Kylie Minogue "Come into my World" / "Can't Get You Out of my Head" (I'm totally counting them as one, yes siree)
2. Queen "Bohemian Rhapsody"
3. Marc Anthony "Tu Amor me Hace Bien"
4. Westlife "My Love" (Okay, so I like my boybands...)
5. Backstreet Boys "Quit Playing Games with my Heart"/ "I'll Be the One"/ "Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely" (Whaaa? I grew up in the 90's!)
6. O-zone "Dragostea din tei" (Cuz Betsy and cheesy Europop mix like Nutella and banana on a fried pancake. Yummy.)
7. Eminem "Without Me"
8. Beach Boys "Californian Girls"
9. Olivia Newton-John "Hopelessly Devoted to You"
10. Depeche Mode "I Promise I Will"
Honourable mention goes to the musical obsession of the moment, Thalia's "Tu y Yo".

I rang in the New Year's with an allergic reaction to something...I think it's an ingredient in this lotion I used, but I'm sure. The fact that the lotion has about 35 ingredients isn't helping me narrow down my allergy, either. But in any case, I'm now stuck with a rash on both legs, arms and on my left ear (don't ask---I don't know why either). *growls* MUST.NOT.SCRATCH.AIEEEEEE!!!
On the bright side, I finally saw both "300" (yes, finally!) and "Sweeney Todd". The first was cool, exciting and OMM GERARD BUTLER!!!; the latter was fantastic filmaking, macabre and entertaining, the full spectrum of emotions and OMM JOHNNY DEPP-SACHA BARON COHEN-ALAN RICKMAN- HAI THERE JAMIE CAMPBELL BOWER. :)
Now that the Stanford application is done, I should be getting a head start on the McGill Law one due for March 1 2008.
...
BAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA.
As if. I would. Be getting. A. Head. Start. Me???
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
You know what I've realized that is humongously important and might undermine my entire hypothetical stay at Stanford?
I'm allergic to the sun. And California? Erm, hello there Sunshine State. Oh crap crap crap.
*headdesk*
Stay indoors and become a hermit with vampiresque living habits?
*headdesk redux*
ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGG. Stupid allergies.
