I just now found out that I can listen to videos (like AMVs) on Amarok, my music player. I quite often listen to mp3s on my video player, but it hadn't occurred to me to try the reverse until now. Sometimes you just get stuck in your thinking, even with silly little things like this. But now I can mix my mp3 and (anime) music video collections in a ( Read more... )

Life would be a lot more fun without homework. I still have my kanji homework for tomorrow. I skipped class today. I've been compiling a list of my favorite music videos, real music videos. Searching, listening and choosing between songs took me a good four hours, but I'm finally done. I'll try to post them tomorrow cause I still need to write ( Read more... )

To hell with it. If I feel like sitting alone in my room writing in my journal the night between New Year's eve and day, then that's what I'm going to do. There are a lot of thoughts going around that are probably better off getting written down and getting a life outside of my head, cause it makes me feel a bit better.

I'm taking a break and I thought that I'd make a music post for once. I don't listen to metal music as much as I used to a few years back, but I felt like listening to some Sonata Arctica for a change and this post will be about SA (Sonata Arctica). I used to be a big fan of SA and I have almost all of their albums and singles. I've always been bad ( Read more... )

This entry would work better with the music, but there's some software problem and I can't rip the song from the CD for you. I wanted to share the Impromptu by Jean Sibelius with you. We're playing it with the orchestra and it's such a beautiful song that I'm sure that you people would've appreciated it. I'll try to get it to you on some later date ( Read more... )

Feels weird. Like I'm anxious or something. I might be just moody. I'm irritated and I'm pathetic. I'm frustrated with the stupidest thing. Douple meh, time for a brake. I've been sitting on my computer for the past four hours more or less.

Wednesday... hei taas päiväkirja. Miten menee? Sain tänään kirjoitettua japanin aineeni valmiiksi luentojen jälkeen. Illan olen vain lööbaillut kotona. Aamupäivä oli aikamoinen... Piti auttaa äitiä hänen draamansa kanssa. Ihan kuin sitä ei olisi ihan tarpeeksi omastakin takaa. ^^; No, se asia kuitenkin selvisi ( Read more... )

This is probably old news to most as films usually arrive late in Finland but the last time that I was at the movies I saw a trailer for Perfume and it caught my attention as I've read the book that it's based on long ago. I can't say about the movie but the book Perfume: The Story of a Murderer by Patrick Süskind is worth reading. It made a big ( Read more... )

My friends asked for me to send them the theme of the cartoon Maja the Bee. I got inspired so here's a list about the various cartoons that I've seen in my childhood and teen years, before I discovered anime. These are in no special order and it's by no means a complete list. The links on the cartoon names take you to Wikipedia. The MP3 links are ( Read more... )

I felt like uploading some nice music for you. ^^ Today's choice happened upon the Berserk OST by Susumu Hirasawa, which I'm very fond of. I picked three songs for you.

Berserk - Forces (t.v.)
-We've used this song in our RPG campaigns as background music for battles.

Berserk - Earth-A more calm and melodic song. I especially like how the song ( Read more... )
