My clicking finger doesn't listen to me... aka The Drabble Meme
Or more accurately, I have no self control! XD Snagged this from quarantineabra
Be forewarned, it says "drabble," but I tend to fail at those, in the traditional sense. (I seem to be incapable of writing anything less than 300 words...) Bad for me, good for you? Then, you're supposed to take it. (Unless you've already got it? I'm unclear on that ( Read more... ) -
Reading Meme
The holidays seem like a good time to dust off (or in my case, sadly, renew) the old library card, and I'm always interested to try something new so...
( I think I'll start a book recommendation meme. ) -
100 Days of Music, Day 100
Day 100: I have completed 'The 100 Day Song Challenge', so for no reason I deserve to post this song, just because I can.
Aww, yeah... I have reached the end! :D I missed a couple of days, but overall, I think I did pretty well. Since this is a rather ridiculous thing to be proud of, I choose this song:
( It's a little sad how much of this applies to me... ) -
100 Days of Music, Day 99
Day 99: Every child should listen to this song so they can learn to appreciate good music.I love almost all of Sergei Prokofiev's work; he always does an excellent job of bringing a sense of life and emotion into his pieces. "Peter and the Wolf" is an excellent introduction to not only classical music in general, but to the use of music to tell a ( Read more... ) -
100 Days of Music, Day 98
Day 98: I dedicate this song to a friend of mine. (who is the friend?)
My college roomie, whose name is omitted to protect the innocent for privacy, is a huge Gackt fan. I'm not sure if she still observes "Gackt night" weekly, but I know she did at school! This song is for her...
( Gackt was the guy singing in that Malice Mizer video a while back. Did anyone recognize him? ) -
100 Days of Music, Day 97
Day 97: If they made a film about my life, this would be the end credits song.
Like I'm interesting enough to have a movie made about me... Anyhow, it'd likely be something like this:
( Science! ) -
100 Days of Music, Day 96
Day 96: How funny would it be if they played this in service station toilets.
Given the ones I've had the joy opportunity to experience and the things that go on in them, this song is not so much funny as simply appropriate.
( Ooh, that smell... ) -
100 Days of Music, Day 95
Day 95: A you think would be hardest to learn to play on an instrument.
I know I will certainly never be able to play this on any instrument! Usually I hear this on violin, but then I found a video with accordion...
( My fingers are far, far too slow... ) -
100 Days of Music, Day 94
Day 94: A song by an artist/band that you think is over-rated.
I'm just not that impressed by My Chemical Romance. They've got a few songs, like this one, that I think are pretty good, but they're not one of my favorites. Plus, I find their lead singer annoying after a very short time.
( He's not quite as whiny as Neil Young, but still... )
