rivendellrose, if you see this, please IM me or e-mail me or something~ our birthdays are next week, and while I've got a test on yours-proper, it's been Heavily Suggested we try doing some kind of gig on the weekend. XD I know that shadawyn has Sunday off, but we've got Saturday morning brunch, so hey. Gimme a buzz, okay? ♥

Next chapter in Bioscientific Termiology, I think we start having to memorize suffixes as well as prefixes and bases. SUCK ASS. Watch as this is the final that completely kills me dead, and not because it's difficult, no, but because I have to remember stuff. I suppose I should be grateful that my strongest point in languages is vocabulary moreso than grammar. XD; On the other hand, I get to sleep in tomorrow (Thursdays were sucktastic spring quarter, but my bestest day this one, so far♥), my Ochem lab TA is cool, and roomie procured tapes, so that we can tape our shows and watch them later. X3 No more missing Iron Chef! XD

And, idly, whose brilliant idea was it to bundle QuickTime so that you can only get it with iTunes? _o_ I've got a LOT of friends who swear by that program, and have sung its praises to me many a time, and I just ... don't like it. XD;; It's clunky, it does weird things to my playlists, and it constantly lists the songs in my library twice, which makes me feel like I've got two copies of a song floating around, when I know I don't. o_o Maybe there's some magical iTunes-fu that I'm unaware of; as it is, it seems kind of sad that I had to download the entire package, install it as iTunes, and then UNINSTALL just iTunes, so I can have QuickTime. XD;

I also like how it was brilliant and sunny and nice while I was walking around to go to classes, and now that I'm done for the day and chilling in my room, it's turned gray and cloudy. XD

So, today in the club, they caught me and made me watch the first episode of Bleach, subtitled. XD (Chiraluv, ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?) And it's interesting, in a sense, because it's like duuuude, it's the same old story all over again -- but it is and it isn't. And then I wonder, well, if there's no such thing as a truly original idea any more, what is it about certain cliches and reused plots that give them staying power? (For example, the continuous popularity of porn. Or vampires. And even vampiric porn, since I've heard the Laurell K. Hamilton rant before.)

It's a person-to-person thing, certainly; I've argued this point with Jesse a few times, especially since his tastes in stuff tends to run opposite of mine, and he's now the club librarian, which means he's got something not quite unlike ultimate power when it comes to the showings. Unless he doesn't, and I've been cruelly misled all this time. Me, I like a good friendship story which I can totally misinterpret have fun reading about; I like stories where the uber-powerful knowing savior of the world actually grows up knowing themselves, rather than the "OMG WE MUST KEEP THIS PERSON IN THE DARK!", and I like the whole theme of overcoming your mistakes and making a better person/life for yourself. (Hellooooo, FMA, is your movie out yet?)

Once upon a time, I was going somewhere with this. But roomie's out till 6:30 tonight, so I'm torn between taking my shower or trying to find where the *##%*(#&! I put my notebook so I can see if my old NaNo ideas are still pinging at me. >_> It's a long time till supper~

We're thinking dim sum on the Sunday after; gotta poke Dora and/or Myra, since they seem to know where more of the places are. XD

At least there'll be Saturday brunch, though. :3 IHOOOOOOOP. /sparkly-eyed
