    If the hills are alive with the sound of music, it’s seriously creeping me out. How DO the halfings do it?!

    “I despise the pleasure of pleasing people that I despise.”
    ~ Lady Mary Wortley Montagu

    KAWOW The old spam thread was waaay over. And I kept checking, too! But then we tried to revive the forum and it was the last thing on my mind. X)

    BTW, you all should take a look at MLIA: My Life Is Average. There are over 300 pages, so you should be kept busy. Some, are not so funny. There are a lot that made my day, though. I started reading four or five pages a night to lift everyone’s spirits up and make them LOL. X) Thank GG for the insanity.

    http://mylifeisaverage.com/

    And for those of you who care, there are HP ones in there all over the place. Like the one where the Average Person is on the bus, and starts singing, “Snape, Snape…Severus Snape…” and was totally surprised to hear someone in the seat behind them squeak out, “Dumbledore!” XD

    “I think I found a new friend.”

    My mom says Ham is the new Spam. Just so you know. I asked her for a thread title idea and she got back to me too late. X)

    Today's MLIA: Today, I asked my little cousin what he wanted to be for Halloween. he told me he wanted to be a cash register. I was confused so I asked him why and he said "That way when I go trick or treating, I'll say "sorry cash only."" I envy my little cousin's mind. MLIA (: You're welcome, chica. Haha... ^_^

    I disagree with your mom. I think vienna sausages are the new spam. OH WHAT. (:

    I may have to start watching Flash Forward. Why? Because Dominic Monaghan just joined the cast. ;-)

    Meh, I'm not too happy with my costume this year...I raided the costume storage room at the theatre and found this southern belle type dress, but I don't know if I wanna wear it anymore...so I might end up being Bellatrix again. I did find a ton of great dresses for when I do Little Women: The Musical for my senior project next year, so that's good.

    We have the day off for parent teacher conferences today. But I have to go in to school anyway for a few hours for NHS. I love being a nerd. XD

    Hey, P_J, I was watching the Today Show Halloween special, and the theme is Star Wars so all the anchors and people like Matt Lauer are all dressed as SW characters. I thought of you. :-)

    ha, someone told me Dom would be joining that show. But she called him my ‘little friend from Lord of the Rings and LOST’. x) Dom has always been one of my fav actors. What’s Flash Forward about anyway? :/

    Wearing 3-D glasses around the house produces laughs and smiles. :) I love being me sometimes.

    EDIT: Okay, so I looked it up and I’m interested. Poppy, are you serious about that watching thing? X)

    Two friends of mine came with me to raid the costume storage area of my local theatre, so I snagged a southern-belle dress at the last minute and was Scarlett O'Hara. It was pretty sweet, actually. I have a huge list of ideas for next year though, including Elphaba and Mrs. Lovett from Sweeney Todd.

    MtM: I'll watch it if you will. XD

    Yeah, just got done with a deep discussion. Mom saw the term ‘switched teams’, and the words ‘c***’ and ‘cigarette’ in my NaNoWriMo book. I argued that it was the character voice, but then I realized that wasn’t her point. She was just looking out for me and making sure I was careful about the way I expressed myself cuz she knows my goal is to get this out into the world. Sometimes, she treats me like I’m extremely mature and she trusts me and stuff. I love my okaasan. <3

    :)

    Mascii Edit: Still PG over here, even light-swearing, I’m afraid. :) Just a warning. And why did you say ‘cuz’?

    MtM Edit: Cuz I wanted to. :P And I wasn’t aware that had to be screened out, seeing as I haven’t used it myself that much. X) But I’ll remember that, in case I need it later.

    I intend to do so. :)

    Totally random aside: I was at a bookstore today to pick up something and when I was checking out the lady asked me if I wanted to donate a book as part of a drive for foster kids in the area. I said sure (it's only a couple dollars usually), and was pointed to a shelf full of books. Lo and behold, there was a copy of POTO there, so I picked that.

    I personally loved the Tarzan soundtrack. It stands out in a pretty kind of way, but not too much. Because a soundtrack you think about as you watch the film isn’t so fabulous, IMO. It’s distracting. :P But Tarzan’s really enhanced the movie.

    Aladdin is just a classic. So catchy. And fun. Thank you, Disney, for giving me fun musicals before I could even say, ‘Pretty hair’. XD

    Haha…PJ. You win points. [high five] Way to passing on obsessions.

    It's one way to make sure they don't die out. :)

    So...can anyone here transcribe music by ear? It's a simple song (melody line + some arpeggios) and I don't need rhythms, just pitches. I play solo handbells/handchimes and this would be a perfect piece for it, especially since I have a friend who plays harp. Otherwise, does anyone know where I could find someone that could?

    It's "Happiness - Requiem" from the "Blind Alchemist" OVA (FMA:B) -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tm9CWguXl98

    `Tis a very pretty and sad song. If I get the music and play it, I promise to record and post it... ;)Fear, anger, and hate lead to the dark side. Despair holds one there. -Luke Skywalker (ROTJ AU) [url=http://dragcave.net/view/Xui5][/url]

    New Years Resolution # 1: Get on here regularly! I feel like I haven’t talked to any of you in forever (because I haven’t)! =C

    I’m going to Malaysia on the 26th, so I have to pack, and I have to email our THIMUN ambassador with my resolution on Christmas and I haven’t started, so I’ll be reso-writing all day too. Fun Christmas, huh? XD Whatever, it’s worth it. I’m going to the Hague!

    Ah, braces. I have braces too. Hate ‘em. But…congratulations? LOL.

    I’m in Malaysia now! Spent a couple of days in KL, which was amazing, then in Genting, which was just okay, and now I’m in Kotakinabaloo, which is pretty awesome. Woohoo!

    Happy new year, everyone!

    Eeesh…I need to go through the old threads. Find out where I owe, what charries I’ve overlook. X-X I’m sorry but it’s been so hard with the fact that I’m always borrowing someone else’s computer…

    I need to have braces. I’m sure I’d hate them, too. > . <

    Haha, they’re not actually that bad, except for the first few days, when they hurt a lot and it’s hard to eat; I was just exaggerating.They’re just pretty annoying.

    Anyhow, HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! Here’s to a great 2010! What are everyone’s resolutions?

    PS Mascii, I posted a new charrie, JSYK – feel free to get to it to approve it whenever you want and no pressure obviously. =)

    BTW has anyone heard any music by the band Stars? They’re amazing – my favorite songs of theirs are Your Ex-Lover Is Dead, One More Night (Your Ex-Lovers Remain Dead) and In Our Bedroom After the War. You guys should check them out.

    Happy new year again everyone!

    So...I finally started watching InuYasha after having the disks sitting on my desk for six months or more. It's really quite good, though I think I'm finding it a bit funnier than the creators intended. And if I ever hear someone say "Sit, boy!" I will burst out laughing. :)Fear, anger, and hate lead to the dark side. Despair holds one there. -Luke Skywalker (ROTJ AU) [url=http://dragcave.net/view/Xui5][/url]

    Oh, I know Stars! My favorite song is "Barricade". Howl's Moving Castle is my favorite Miyazaki, mostly because the book was written by one of my favorite authors..... Diana Wynn Jones. Know her?
  31.  
    I've only read Howl's Moving Castle and Castle in the Air, along with parts of the Tough Guide to Fantasyland, which was hilarious. I loved both of them just because they're so matter-of-fact when it comes to unexpected events.

    Ugh...watched 30 episodes of InuYasha in three days. At this rate, I'll be almost done with the anime by the time my break is over!
