For those unfamiliar with the term lagniappe have no fear, I will tell you what this wonderful and often mispronounced word means. Lagniappe is Cajun/Creole that means a little something extra. It is often used in southern states of the US, mainly Louisiana. You know, that state shaped like a boot that was once owned by a little short man with a Roman nose. Since I have nothing really to post about, I'm offering a little lagniappe that has no real significance or use.
Over the past months, I've been having some really weird dreams. I don't talk about them much, I'd normally forget about everything throughout the day. Sadly, I remember more than I let on. The most recent one I remember off the top of my head was during a feudal war. With samurai. What they were fighting over, I have no idea. How I came to dream about samurai is another mystery. Over a course of time, I was somehow drawn into battle. Naturally, I protect whatever my side is defending, and then the highest ranking samurai appears. We have our short bout with me losing. I was impaled through the stomach, from the large amounts blood lost I eventually died. While all of that was happen, outside of my dream, the taste of blood filled my mouth. It was metallic, thick, and felt like it was pouring out my mouth. Suddenly, my eyes popped open looking out the window. That was that.
Another is a reoccurring dream with a little romance elements. For the sake of giving the other person a name I'd call it Secret. From what I remember, I was in some work environment or school and there was this person, Secret, who's face I could never see. We'd meet up throughout the dream and greet each other. Hello dream effect Fast Forward. We're in the same class sitting close to each other. People are filling the room pushing us closer together. More dream Fast Forward, we have a secret relationship going on. Neither of like of public displays of affection. To show some affection when we together, we'd let our index and pointer fingers touch each other's index and pointer fingers, and smile and blush. All that jazz. Reoccurring dream always ended the same way with finger touching.
Recently, there was one with a person I called Koki throughout. Ironically, it has nothing to do with
Koki. It was pretty pointless too. I got hugged and given the status of perma-hungry. When I woke up, the first thing I did was make a sandwich... I was hungry after all. Thus ending the dreams I remember. :| Yay.
School started last week. I have one class I just don't know what to think about, the course is called Management. I'm not a business major, so I don't know how useful that's going to be for me. The other two is about Flash and another video/audio production course. Flash I'm a little psyched about. I've used it a few times when I was HS. It was pretty fun, but I could never take the course while attending HS, was the same with Premiere... didn't follow my career choice. Video production so far, I think is about dealing with uncompressed video and using another program to compress to make streamable online. Sounds really boring on paper. Speaking of classes, I've just remembered I have an assignment due tomorrow. Procrastination is my habit and skill.
Reminder: Follow-up on job applications. Sleep more to make the week go by faster. Avoid slapping brother in his sleep.
