exitate vos e somno, liberi fatali
I have figured out how to transfer geek!music onto my iPod. Oh yes. It is awesome. Now I can wake up to "ESTUANS INTERIUS IRA VEHEMENTI, SEPHIROTH!" which is what I did this morning. It makes waking up at 6:15 a lot more exciting (other than it not being dark anymore, yay). Speaking of Ominous Latin Chanting, I downloaded the vocal version of "Liberi Fatali" from FFVIII and ZOMG BEST SONG EVER. I always thought that the instrumental midi version was awesome, but everything's better with Latin chanting. Though strangely enough, the actual chanting part ("FITHOS LUSEC WECOS VINOSEC!") isn't actually Latin. The regular lyrics, however, are. Though I still think that "One-Winged Angel" is the best Ominous Latin Chanting song ever. Especially when it enters your head whenever you're conjugating venio in the subjunctive, or when you're innocently walking down the hallway, or when you realize that one of your character's names is very similar to Sephiroth so you find yourself randomly inserting "Sephora" instead of Sephiroth.
(Oh, and as a Latin Scholar, I must point out that "Liberi Fatali" isn't actually the correct form; "fatalis" is in the third declension so it would be "fatalum"--or "fatalium," dunno if it's being used as an adjective and would have the i-stem form. "Fatali" is actually the dative singular form, which definitely does not agree with the nominative plural "liberi.")
So tomorrow's the election, the last election in which I can't vote. I'm not looking forward to four years from now when I'll actually have to vote, because I'm not political, damn it. This is why Clarisse and I are moving to Switzerland with our fat chocolate babies. (Or, you know, I can be one of those people who just does write-in candidates. I could get really creative with that.)
