I'm debating watching all of AnS again. Possibly all of C/D/GnA that is subbed as well... Why is Arashi so appealing? Why? Actually, I'd rather not have that answered, I read the social phenom. article, and their reasoning was insufficient to me.

I was all set to watch the Rookies SP, and then found out, bad idea... I condensed two hours into 20 minutes by skip through... It was all review! The only important part was the ending! The hell! At least it's off my list of stuff to watch. Now to watch Last Friends, which I was going to not watch, and then I found out Ueno Juri was in it, and I kind of caved. There are two other cast members I'm all yay about... Then again, that's primarily due to Nodame... Ah well, off to watch Last Friends!

This weekend is our Winter Festival thing here, which means cultural pavillions. I believe I'm for sure going to the Chinese, Scotish, Irish, and Metis. They have such good food... Ah, I want the food already... I should work on my juggling thing to perhaps... Maybe when it is warmer out, as I can't do that in the house.

Why are Magikarp so annoying to raise? One more level and then I finally don't have to work on that one in particular, and I think by then my egg will have hatched to a Togepi. And soon I can enter contests! Yay!

I wonder if I'll cave and watch Desperate Housewives to see if Barrowman is fabulous in it?

So, I completed watching Futatsu no Spica. Really I watched it for two reasons. Number One being Nakamura Yuichi, and the other being random space stuff. Space is good, yes. It was a short series (only seven episodes), so that was nice as well. Ah, so much on my watch list. I plan on watching Bloody Monday 2, Code Blue 2, and Tokujo Kabachi!! for the Winter season. Should be good.

I had today off... I had a Saturday off! *dances* Quite nice really. It was been quite a while, so I was happy. Relaxation is nice. It also helps that I have all my homework done except the required readings, which don't need to be done until Thursday. Works quite well.

I finally watched Thursdays Supernatural episode. So happy it's back on. This episode was also quite good in my opinion.

And now on to the reason I was posting. Because I had the day off, I decided the best thing to do would be to go to a movie! Avatar to be exact. Also, it seems our theatre is 3D capable now, which I either forgot about or didn't know, so I got to see it in 3D. Bloody epic it was. Ah, I like it so much! I do wish I could shut my brain off more than I can though, as I started calling up random facts about Jupiter, and Anthropology as I watched it. Eventually I could shut my brain off though and just enjoy the movie. Ah, it was spectacular though. I definatly want to see it again! Shame that one bit was cut though.

I think I'm going to go watch a drama to relax before I sleep. :D

So, operation convert-a-coworker is going fairly smoothly. So far she fits in the 'kind of an Arashi fan' category. I think with liking the songs and thinking Sho is quite good looking. She also really likes his rapping (his rapping is what started all of this), and his voice. She also agrees that Haruna Ai is amazingly pretty, and generally amazing so far, thinks Nino's not quite aging is a bit creepy, and that Gackt is okay looking with a sadistic vampire feel to him. I mention looks because that's a primary focus of hers it seems. Oh, and I was playing Perfume at work (whenever I play music at work, it amuses me because it weirds out the customers just a tiny bit, and my co-workers seem to like the stuff, which they thought they would never), and she seemed to like that. Also, she put it on Tokei Jikake no Umbrella and a guy changed it as he really didn't like it, but he did like Super Fresh, and Truth ~Saigo no Shinjustu by w-inds.

I hate headaches... I've been getting them a lot for the past little while. It hasn't been as bad as that one year though. What was that? 2007? 2008? Something like that. As long as they don't get like that I'll be happy.

I have next Saturday off! This is amazing! I rarely get Saturday's off, so my week is normally:
Mon - class
Tues - class and work
Wed - class
Thurs - class
Fri - class and work
Sat - work
Sun - work
The downfall is that I do have some neglected cleaning I should get done that day. I suppose I will.

Today I did something different with my hair, which is indeed quite rare. I normally just tie it in a ponytail, and instead I just tied my bangs back, which aren't really bangs as they are pretty much the same length as my normal hair. Either way, for me it is different than the norm.

Well, on to making massive email!

Thanks to the lovely mele_3_4, I have a meme to do. Yay!

A. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
B. Tag seven people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it".

( OMG, a meme! How exciting! )

I am tagging: ssalamanderr, tengwarsenna, sadistic_dance, pilkul_calpico, bby, colorfulkizuna, irigon (so hard to choose people... I have such a small friends list.)

I should be going to bed now. I have a class at 8.30, but I figure it should be okay if I'm in bed by 3.00. Tomorrows going to be a bit weird though. Between my classes I have to go dry laundry as our dryer is still broken. That means I have to use the change on my desk. D:

I'm having a moment where I've been watching a bunch of stuff with Catherine Tate in it. Comedy stuff, because I think she's quite funny personally, though I hear there are those who don't at all. I like her characters, and despite it being January I watched her Christmas special. Why can't our Christmas specials be cool like this. Nan's Christmas Carol though is quite amusing, and I was pleased with Ben Miller and David Tennant as well.

This wasn't there yesterday...

I have quite the headache, and yet I have my headphones on in full force. Drowns out the other noises that bother my ears I suppose.

So, I work on quite the main street through my city (I consider it a town myself, but population wise it is a city). That doesn't sound quite right, so I shall say that in a different way. The building in which my work occupies is on a main street in my town, and yesterday was the day that the Olympic Torch was to be run through. Now, I was to be working when they were here, and completely didn't check the route at all, and so I thought I wouldn't see it at all. Totally passed infront of my work, so I watched outside my window. Pretty fire.

On a similar note, I wonder if David Tennant will run the torch at all in 2012 in London. It would cause some fan freakouts, which are always amusing.

I do believe I like Adam Lambert. Pretty voice...

So, I got on pondering television of the last decade that I have quite enjoyed, so I'm going to write a list, and some random paragraphs. Ah, I really just feel like doing this, so I shall!

( Clipsie's Favourite Television Series From The Past Decade! (Possible spoilers, though minor, like whoa, seeing as there are clips) )

My fingers hurt from typing...

Also, I really don't have a sports fan mentality at all. When I watch anything sports like, I could care less who wins, and just wants who ever does best too. My family on the other hand do, well, primarily my Mom and Sister, so I just don't understand the yelling at the TV. For curling too.

This is my reason for posting... I think I'm going to give Anything Goes another read for the awesome and hillarity.



Also, pondering about things about yourself is not a good way to spend a day at all. Bad for the head. Really.

I've been having a real flail moment over this movie for today. Ah, MW <3.

( I watched MW last night, and I loved it so very, very much. Spoilers. Really though, behind this cut is my long run with MW related stuff I suppose... A few paragraphs before actually getting to the point... But still, spoilers. )

Seriously people, watch this movie if you haven't. Tamaki Hiroshi and Yamada Takayuki are both so very amazing in it.

This is my 709th entry... Wonder if I could make it to 1000 by the end of the year? Maybe I should aim for 800. Ah well.

Currently I cannot use my one thumb for hitting the space bar. It's my primary space bar thumb too. Damn you scissor for slicing the pad open as I tried to remove the netting on a ham. *shakes fist* Oh, it's okay now... Way to pay attention me. On that note, never run a thumb down scissors meant for hair and remain in a sharpener at all times... Just bad. The scissors were closed too. >.> Yes, I was using hair shears to cut netting off a ham, but I washed them first, just that the ham was frozen and not unthawing properly, and I couldn't find kitchen shears...

So, I watched Koishite Akuma... My, what the hell was that? Me thinks I should avoid happy, fluffy vampire stories from now on. Just no... That's the exact reason why I didn't like Angel as a vampire, all his woe is me shit bothered me in Buffy, but it wasn't half bad in Angel I will admit (though I've seen a grand total of five Angel episodes). I did like Yoko as a vampire in it though. Ah, Kanjani people. I should probably finish Yukan Club then for Taguchi and Yoko. Then maybe ProDai, no matter how boring it is, which is quite a lot. Eikura is good in it, but the rest is just eh.

I have now watched half of Winter Party Diamond. I like Yamapi when he's performing concerts. He seems much happier doing that, and there is emotion in those eyes, and wow. Also, my love for Shige keeps incresing. Shige is awesome, which is yay. Shalala Tamborine is really catchy. Koyashige is awesome in concert as always, and Ginza Rhapsody is bloody amazing as well.

I'm all stuffy and gross today. Maybe if I had some daikon...

So, flumpool, why have I been ignoring you lately? Ah, I love their stuff. I haven't even seen the Frame PV either, which makes me think I should get on that. I forgot all about it actually as I was busy when I got the notification for it... Now to find their Kouhaku performance! Oh, it's on Youtube. Aww, they're so nervous at the begining. Either way, they did awesome. Now to watch MW purely because they did the theme... And Tamaki Hiroshi I suppose. :D *continues loving the Natsu Dive PV*

Insane people are fun. :D

It amuses me how Arashi and flumpool are really the only consistant things on my iPod for the most part.

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND NEW DECADE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, Arashi on Kohaku... So awesome. Well, I liked it particularly because of the costume change, but I suppose I'm weird like that, and I'll have to watch Johnny's Countdown another day, but Eito Ranger. I quite like Kanjani, and Eito Ranger is just awesome.

So, we are horribly short staffed at work right now, and not short staffed by means of people, I mean allowed hours, and it is kind of annoying in so many ways. Everyone is going to be overworked, so I see a lot of calling in sick in the near future. *shakes fist at work*

So, for New Years Eve, I stayed home and watched Family Channel until I could get on the computer... I'm begining to think Family Channel/Disney stuff is highly addicting. Not that I mind at all.

Tomorrow I'll be able to watch Day 4 and 5 of Children of Earth! Well, I'll have to probably tape it and watch it later in the evening, but I do suppose it is my fault for forgetting where I put the tapes to begin with. Then on Saturday I will watch the final two Doctor Who episodes of the year. A very Doctor Who weekend indeed. Sad I have to work on Saturday or else it would be Doctor Who/Torchwood marathon all day.

I have three clocks in my room. They are not set at the same time, so I'm going by my computer time.

Anyways, I wish everyone well this New Year. I had more to post, but I forgot what it was.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I'm spending a lot of time on journal updating today. Sorry to some people. I shall explain that certain people wanted to see some stuff after I doodled at work, and directing them to something like that is so much easier.

I uploaded some art yesterday and today to azurevanillasky.
Emo Dolls, and also some Mighty Boosh Fanart stuffs
Completely random sketches from over the years
Arashi fanart consisting of MC Kamiyama, and Arashi as The Wizard Of Oz (this is what happens when I think of random things)
Basically, this is the moments where I have nothing to do, and then feel like this kind of stuff, and feel like posting it there, while I do have a Deviant Art acount, with confuses me so much anyways, so LJ=easier for me.

So, today was the Christmas Supper for one side of the family. We woke up quite early to go help cook, as it is the one held by my Grandpa (who was in the car accident a few weeks ago). There was some talk about how it should have be cancelled, but whatever. My job was peeling potatoes. Now, I know how to peel stuff, I just don't do it often, as I personally like the peel on many things. This was for mashed potatoes though, so I was being silly and peeling them completely wrong (really a hack and slash kind of job), and it was fun. I then found a potato that looked like it had hair. I will post a picture of this later on in the next while. I carved a face (I was using a knife, as I dislike potato peelers) into it and dubbed it Potato Punk.

After we had finished getting what was to be ready to put on, I played a game of cribbage. It was Grandpa and I vs. My Mom and Uncle. The ending score was 8-2 for G.pa and I. We actually only won 4 games, but skunked them all four times, while they won 2 games with no skunking. Quite enjoyable.

I also had my headphones in my ears the entire day except for during supper, but no one seemed offended, as I wasn't ignoring them, and instead was doing stuff, having conversations, and drawing, all the while listening to Pichan.

It was a good day though in the end.

So, today I had a dentist checkup at 9.15am. I got to see the x-rays from the last time I was there. Wisdom teeth, you are unimpressive bastards... Why are you growing in sideways? This means I'll probably have to be put out when I get them removed. I don't like that plan at all. Either way, I have a referal sent to the person who will be removing them, so in the new year, they shall be gone. I swear, I'm going to meet all of the dental professionals here by the end of everything...

The Waters of Mars is on the tele this weekend. I love Space and their non-cutting, non-bleeping ways. They make me a very, very happy fan ever since CBC decided to not have Who anymore. I cannot wait for Saturday.

I slept pretty much the entire day after my appointment. First day I've gotten to do anything like that in a while. Couches are uncomfortable though. Especially when you have a chocolate lab lying on you... I kind of hurt a bit, but all is good.

I got my Intro to Socio-Cultural Anthro mark back today. I feel like this:

I got an A+. Sure, it isn't the most difficult class in the world, but my interest in something determines how well I try at anything, and as it happens, I really like Anthropology. Now to go through the hassle of switching my entire program set-up. Fun times had by all.

THIS is the greatest thing I have watched all day (mind, I haven't exactly been awake for it to begin with, except Wizards of Waverly Place *cough*). Noel and David on the same show! Hellz yes! I swear Catherine is drunk (which isn't exactly unusual for this show at all I don't think), but it's okay, and Bernard is awesome! Just so much awesome in one place. Not the greatest episode I may say (Barrowman has some awesome moments from the past, and I miss Simon Amstell so much), but hillarious none the less. Watch it! On that note, I need to catch up on this show, so after VS Arashi + Gackt, I think I will. :D

I really don't want to work tomorrow...

Exam on Tuesday morning, and then I am free! Also, I have Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday off this week, so I'm quite overjoyed... I hate work so much lately. *shakes fist at it* My past few shifts haven't even had proper zone out time! Makes me sad...

I was going through my list of dramas I have watched, as I was adding to it (some Gekidan Engimono and Kindaichi Shonen no Jinkenbo 3), and I was checking some stuff. I have a bunch of random links for songs and stuff after all, and some songs I don't have anywhere in my computer, but I still like them. I really need to get on that.

( Random videos... Kind of? )

It's always the maid...

I've never seen the point of the revolver in Clue... The other weapons are relatively silent, so are the rooms sound proof or something? I can understand if there is something silencing it and all, but couldn't they come up with something more entertainingly giggleworthy? Frying Pan in the Conservatory? Seriously though, if the killer's an idiot, then people would hear him! On that note, my two favourite boardgames are Clue and Monopoly, and it is really hard to find people that will play them with me... Sad.

I seem to have a fondness for using "..." at the end of my sentences. Probably a good thing in a way.

I do believe I shall be going through and watching all of VS Arashi again, finish some drama watching (Why is there so much? I need to finish this before the next season), and possibly attempt to watch Gossip Girl (someone is pestering me to, so I did promise I would watch a bit) over the holidays. See how this goes.

So, the most amusing thing that happened at work yesterday? Someone singing to Grandma got run over by a reindeer and changing "got run over" to "got jumped". In the rythm of the song, it doesn't fit perfectly, but it does make for an interesting mental image. :D It kind of lead me to sing my Santa being stabbed song (I made this a few years ago for some stupid reason).

Exam in 1 hr and 10 min. The next one is Tuesday morning (I don't do mornings very well either).

So, person I taped Alice for is now in possession of the tape. I do hope she likes it.

Apparently it is supposed to warm up this next week to about 0C.

( I suppose remembering to do intended research is good... Why did it take so long to check or figure it out? Also, Wizard of Oz. )

Today was do nothing day! I was playing Mario on my DS, but I had no coins to get a save point. I'm on World Six, so one more to go! I'm almost at the castle too, which is awesome. Actually, I was at the castle, but after ten or so times getting killed by the boss (golpher in a tank... wtf?), I just shut her down. It isn't that I have no lives though (I have around 50, as the only time I really die is during boss stages), so I just have to beat the levels I had beat before to get to the castle again, and the levels were relatively easy, so no problem.

I think I need to learn that candies that are really hard are not meant to bite down on and break teeth... Ah well.

Stuffing mixed with hamburger to make burgers is quite good. Anyone who hasn't tried this, I recommend it. Especially with BBQ sauce on top and some cheese.

Wizards to Waverly Place is annoyingly good in the way that it isn't pure perfecting (it is Disney/Family Channel material afterall), but it is good enough that it stays entertaining. I don't know, I just seem to be watching it a lot lately, and I do enjoy it.

I've started to watch Primeval again. So far the first three episodes. It actually slipped my mind that I accidently read a spoiler for the third episode onces, until about half way through, and then I muttered a frustrated damnit. I shall continue watching, I'm just annoyed that it was a very important moment that I got spoiled on. Mind you, I've accidently read into situations displayed in shows on the first episode, got it right, and was then annoyed with myself because reflecting it ruined some enjoyment (I'm looking at you Ryusei no Kizuna, though overall you were quite entertaining).

Must remember to take Alice to work tomorrow.

Back to studying (a.k.a. death).

( Vee-Dee-Ohs a la random and YT )

So, today was the last day of class, and my system of something happening on the last day that isn't so awesome is still continuing. Normally I just get terribly ill on the last day, and this year it was decided that I wouldn't get ill. Instead my vehicle would not start. I suppose it is alright, but still, would be nice if I could go to class for the last day. Ah well. It is quite cold though. With wind chill it is below -40C, which isn't too horrible, but it isn't all that good either.

Yesterday I got up at 3 in the afternoon. That was nice, much sleep. I was up for 12 hours and a bit though, so I'm quite surprised I feel asleep as fast as I did.

Exam on Saturday... Fun.

I think I'm going to edit my tags.

Why LJ? Why aren't you sending me my bloody alerts? I want to know what's going on! By that, I mean when someone comments on my journal. I have to check the homepage to see if anything at the moment, but the rest be fine.

So, Alice is totally enjoyable. Ah, I loved it too much (it most certainly had nothing to do with certain people in it, not at all... >.>), and I should really give that tape to the person tomorrow when I see them, but it should be okay if I give it another run through. I did promise by Friday afterall, and I had no intention of watching it myself until Wednesday, so as long as I don't admit to having watched it, all should be fine.

Hatter <3

I'm begining to be kind of eh towards Burton's Alice in Wonderland (and quite towards Johnny Depp's Hatter), but I guess I'll end up watching it anyways. I like the visuals and all, but it might be a bit much in a way if there ends up being too much colour (which is why Edward Scissorhands had the perfect balance of colour and dark in my eyes).

Looks like I can stop putting off watching Waters of Mars. December 19th, here I come. Next I just need to finish CoE and Primeval...

Really, as of late, I haven't been watching much by means of things with plot. I have read some books though (and fanfiction the size of books I suppose, and well written at that).

I should sleep. Day of no class, but work tomorrow! Work isn't until evening though.

I've only ever seen magicians do this from that starting point... Why?

'Tis the season to write Anti-Christmas Carols, because I cannot stand Christmas Carols at all... Fun to sing though, despite the odd looks.

The term is almost over! Yay! I'm way too happy about that.

So, a certain co-worker is a giant fan of Caterina Scorsone, so I am taping Alice for her, as she has no way of taping it. When she'll actually get to watch it? No body knows, and since I'm taping it, I have decided to watch it (lets ignore the fact that Andrew Lee Potts (Conner!) and Tim Curry being in it helped in my decision). So far, I find it enjoyable. It has been a really long time since I've read or watched anything relating to Alice in Wonderland (partially because certain family members cannot stand the story because they personally find it disturbing), so there is a copy in the house somewhere. Where? No one knows. Seems it was read to me a long, long time ago. So long ago, I don't remember hearing it, but know the story well enough that I'm not all confused, but I still forget random bits.

Of course, watching this reminds me I have yet to see the latest season of Primeval, and I have yet to watch Waters of Mars, and the last two episodes of Children of Earth, so I shall get to that during my break I suppose. It even reminds me that I have a whole list of other stuff to watch, but that can be ignored for now I suppose... Or I'll mix them together. I do have the last two episodes of CoE on video somewhere in the house, as I did tape it during its run (which was the same week of the convention, so it is understandable in a way as to why I didn't see the last two), but as soon as I could watch them, I had already misplaced them (or broken the tapes, as that seems to be happening as of late).

Livejournal seems to be having problems with email alerts lately. Kind of frustrating in a way, but I suppose it is alright... Arg.

You know you watch too much stuff with subtitles, when while searching for something on YouTube, you suddenly wonder why nothing is labelled as having subs, and then you realize the entire thing is in English anyways... I'm not tired at all. >.>;

It still gives me odd amusement to watch people try to turn their arm "backwards", when they can't.

( Rant about my teeth )

I love her voice. I miss when YTV was awesome...

Matsujun's rapping ability reminds me of Ryuutaros's rapping from Kamen Rider Den-O... Both of them are purple too.

One of these days I need to finish reading Honey Hunt. The similarities between Knights and JE groups in general cause much giggles, and the story line is quite awesome. Oh, wait, I can't finish it now! I've read everything released here so far... Damnit, April... Really? Also, need more Honey and Clover (March, really? *cries*)! Damn you VIZ!

There was a genius idea to have a cup phone run from the main doors of Brodie to the Physics Club room the other night. That would have actually been quite awesome.

It seems if I do really well (actually, just keep with the pace I have in it right now), I will end Intro Socio-Cultural Anthro with an A or an A+. This is part of the reason I'm switching to the Anthro department (and have more years to go, but that's alright). Power to Anthro!

I have the day off tomorrow! Yay! I have a dental appointment though... I hate dental stuff.

Does anyone know any stupid games that I can switch up to be Astronomy related? They have to be okay for children though.

Today we had snow! Well, more like tonight. It's starting to feel more like normal, though it took long enough... December first is a bit late, though there was that one year with no snow on Christmas...

I am fully going to admit, I used lyrics from NYC on my Anthro midterm as an example of formatting of language and order of subject matter... I don't know how to feel about that... I did get 5/5 on the question though.

As of a year since I started watching Japanese dramas seriously (I watched two prviously in 2007), I have watched a total of... 46 shows. *randomly had her neglected excel file open*

Seems someone is going to get the rest of COE to me, and I might be lending them a Torchwood novel. Ah, I love Torchwood.

My hands... They bleed! It's kind of sore too.

I think after three years of this, I may now completely loathe the Grey Cup. Damn you football and your ability to make people buy silly food that I don't want to be there to sell. I might just take this day off next year. I do have the next two days off though, and I work during the day, so it isn't overly bad for me I suppose. I get to leave around the middle of the rush, and shockingly I got sent home a half hour early today. Huzzah!

It has been realized that because of the types of people I hang out with, they generally are not Twilight fans at all, and while I do admit the first book isn't that bad (it has shockingly good pacing, but Edward is still a creepy stalker no matter what), the second book is just terrible, and I shall never read the next two. I do have co-workers who are Twilight fans though, and today that's what they wanted to talk about. Specifically New Moon. I am glad I didn't get the line "You just don't understand their love", and instead just got the fact that she thinks it is romantic (why, I don't know, and neither does she). Damn you Twilight and your vampires that sparkle! I think I might will go watch Dracula (the Keanu Reeves one for laughs) and Interview With A Vampire instead. I'm tempted to lend her my copy of Dracula...

Tonight I need to study for my test tomorrow... I'll get to it. It's on evolution, so a large majority I have learned already.

Seems I might see Ninja Assassin on Thursday, providing my plans stay true. Great thing to do after a final.
