I've got a Beatles chord songbook with all their songs that a friend just gave me, and so I'm just learning to play along on guitar and then to play and sing on my own.

But man, I love The Beatles.

A friend of mine drove me back to school after Thanksgiving, since she only lives about 55 minutes away from my house.  While D and I were waiting at her house I got to meet her family, which was pretty awesome because they seem like fantastic people.  A few days ago she told me that after she got back to her house at school, her 20-year-old brother called her and said "Who was your friend??  She's GORGEOUS!"  He then told her that he wanted to go out with me, but "Her boyfriend was there and he was wearing a Naruto shirt, so obviously he's a cool guy.  Dammit!"  XD  That made my day.

Awesome!

I love hot coffee. 'Tis a rarer love: I usually prefer my coffee iced. On all those days last week when it was twenty degrees colder at this hour than it is today, I still had my coffee iced. Why? Because it was sunny on all those days. This morning it's dark as the pits of Utumno, and so even though it's comparatively warm, it's definitely hot coffee weather!

I also love that Darigold now makes coffee creamer. Imagine! A store-bought coffee creamer whose only ingredients are milk, sugar, and the hazlenut flavor.

It was indeed incredible that this frame exists. I saw him raising his hand to say avast, and then it dawned on me; "He had the perfect pose there for a second!" So I slowed it down 8x and took a bunch of screenshots, and fortune smiled.

I love my results for my music minor audition:

I'm in!!  :D

And it only took a week to reply to 10 minutes of hammering out Tchaikovsky and Gershwin.

Ha! Glenn Beck's in trouble with his employers at FOX for his 'golden contributions'. Serves you right! I mean, yeah, it's only a small step in the long run, but still... :lol:

On a related note, I LOVE the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. :P

My God, it's full of stars.

It's not every day one can claim to have stumbled upon the Holy Grail of some activity, but this is truly something every anime music video/anime fan trailer enthusiast needs to check out if they're serious enough about the art to purchase or track down the anime's source Dolby 5.1/AC3 audio. If you've got your hands on the AC3 audio files, you can literally decompose them into individual audio channels, at which point knocking out the music and leaving the voices and pertinent sound effects (or vice versa) is mere child's play.

Santa's workshop is gonna be busy tonight.

I know it means "Please" in Japanese.

Speaking of which, I should be getting a Rosetta Stone: Japanese for Christmas.

Sajainta's avatar/icon thingies (well, most of them), and a new one in particular. Hello Cthulhu, Running OMG, Shakespeare Made Me Do It, the Gospel According to St. Bastard, Chainsaw Squee, and the Free PS3 are all great, but I saw a new one today that motivated this post. It is a green/greyscale picture of, I think, D and herself. It’s quite cute and made me smile.

... of course, her kitty with toilet paper icon makes me smile too, so I am easily amused.

Why, thank you very much.  :D  I'm pretty fond of my icon choices.  Here's the whole gallery, if anyone else is as amused as Thought is::  link.

And yup, that's a picture of D and me!  :)  It's a small version of this picture::



It's one of my favourite pictures of us.  ^^

I would love just once to see diamond dust instead of snow falling.  Unfortunately, it's mostly a polar meteorological phenomenon that takes place only under the right conditions.

It supposed to be beautiful to watch.  This is one of the best videos I can find of it:
