Amusement from the Entertainment of Others.
So I needed to take a break from my reading about decapitation and I decided to jump on the meme bandwagon for the sheer hell of it all.
1. How does the world see you?
Gravitation: Sleepless Beauty
Christ, even my iTunes knows I don't sleep. Then again, it keeps track of things like that....
2. Will I have a happy life?
Travis: Indefinitely
Score.
3. What do my friends think of me?
Nields: Bulletproof
Because I have the powerful defenses of bullshitting.
4. Do people secretly lust after me?
Gackt: Papa Lapped a Pap Lopped
It makes about as little sense as the title itself does, but upon further examination, it starts making a little more sense and is of course far, far more perverse than originally given credit for. Besides, we all know that teh_women want me.
5. How can I make myself happy?
Glay: Beautiful Dreamer
Keep living on inside that mental world of mine and it's practically guarenteed.
6. What should I do with my life?
嵐: All Or Nothing
Give it all or don't bother, nice.
7. Will I ever have children?
The Perishers: All Wrong
Damn straight, because it would be all wrong for me to have kids.
8.What is some good advice for me?
Gackt: Vanilla
Hah! Stop listenin to the song so fucking much? Or perhaps, "You keep yourself at a distance before I lose myself" would work? Oh wait, or should I be all fangirly and do it in Japanese? 君の顔が遠ざかる/僕がボクで無くなる前に Of course, I don't have nearly enough fangirly squeeing in that, but hey, it's implied.
9.How will I be remembered?
Cowboy Bebop: Words That We Couldn't Say
...well, I think I've already got the bases covered on that one. Bah.
10. What's my signature dancing song?
Sondre Lerche: Suffused With Love
Not quite sultry, but hey, I'll go with it.
11. What's my current theme song?
Stereo MC's: Deep Down and Dirty
That couldn't have been more appropriate. ::snickers::
12. What do others think is my current theme song?
安室奈美恵: Want Me, Want Me
::snorts:: Because that's not self-centered at all.
13. What shall they play at my funeral?
Gackt: Redemption
...
14. What type of men do I like?
Gackt: Mizérable
Yes, all hot and poetic-emo on my ass. A little angst never hurt anybody, although I'm laughing my ass off at the fact my playlist is so Gacktcentric tonight. Making me look more obsessive than I (already) am.
15. How's my love life?
Duncan Sheik: Days Go By
Damn straight, without anybody in them. It dawned on me last night that my roomie has had over more men than myself. Her three to my none. That disturbs me, then again, our purposes and intents with them are two entirely different things, so that should have something else to do with it. Well, that and I'm not actively going after anyone. I don't even have a moderatly attractive guy, let alone a hot one, in any of my classes this semester. Bah.
It's a pitty there wasn't another question because the next song was Fidelity ~ Soubi from Loveless and I think that would have been awesome.

....don't know why, but this makes me feel like a real bitch.
In other news, things go as they are. This week is disappearing quickly, but then again, my grasp on time is always a bit dubious at best with that. So it goes, I guess. Although I'm still scratching my head over having a dream about confronting my professor about the book I bought at the Japanese bookstore yesterday and the essay he wrote in it and him telling me that his real name was Hayama Matsuro, or something along those lines, and I woke up confused and with the odd desire to make my Hayama Sushi Face. Or have some sushi. Or just watch Kodocha. None of which I have done today. Well, except for the Hayama Sushi Face. Because that's just fun. Now if you'll excuse me, I am going to try and find a screencap of that and make an icon out of it. Maybe.
EDIT 02.59AM [Because I'm too lazy to make a new post for a new day]: I tend to stay out of politics, but the stupidity of the following just disheartens me.
President Bush said Tuesday that American forces will remain in Iraq for years and it will be up to a future president to decide when to bring them all home. But defying critics and plunging polls, he declared, "I'm optimistic we'll succeed. If not, I'd pull our troops out."
The president rejected calls for the resignation of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, chief architect of wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan. "Listen, every war plan looks good on paper until you meet the enemy," Bush said, acknowledging mistakes as the United States was forced to switch tactics and change a reconstruction strategy that offered targets for insurgents.
...Public support for the war and for Bush himself has fallen in recent months, jeopardizing the political capital he claimed from his 2004 re-election victory. "I'd say I'm spending that capital on the war," Bush said.
The White House believes that people appreciate Bush's plainspoken approach even if they disagree with his decisions.
"I understand war creates concerns," the president said. "Nobody likes war. It creates a sense of uncertainty in the country."
Bush has adamantly refused to set a deadline for the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq. Asked if there would come a day when there would be no more U.S. forces in Iraq, Bush said, "That, of course, is an objective. And that will be decided by future presidents and future governments of Iraq."
..."Their objective for driving us out of Iraq is to have a place from which to launch their campaign to overthrow moderate governments in the Middle East, as well as to continue attacking places like the United States," he said.
Despite pleas from fellow Republicans, Bush has rejected calls for a White House staff shake-up, saying he was satisfied with his aides. He did not rule out bringing in a savvy Washington insider, as some have suggested...
Bush defended his administration's warrantless eavesdropping program whose legality has been questioned by Democrats and Republicans alike. Putting his remarks in a political context, he said, "Nobody from the Democratic Party has actually stood up and called for getting rid of the of the terrorist surveillance program."
Ow. Just, ow. And remind me that whenever I'm feeling a bit disheartened not to listen to the Mirage of Blaze soundtrack; it always just makes me depressed and feeling as if I need to cry. Bah. Trying that whole sleep thing again.
