Writer's Block: Love is deaf

2010-01-07T01:17:10Z

Could you spend the rest of your life with someone who had horrific taste in music? How important is it to you to share your love of music with a good friend or romantic partner?

View 1395 Answers

Music is very important. I get very frustrated and disappointed when I really think someone will like something that I show them and they don't like it or aren't as enthusiastic about it as I am... )=

I love music, I will embrace yours, I just wish you would embrace mine too.

2009-12-22T01:54:58Z

I'm back home! Canada was awesome! I will post more later because I want to upload my (crappy cell phone) pictures first.

The concert was amazing. Kevin bought me an autographed copy of the new CD which then got stuck in his car's CD player. I think it is safe and sound with him, but I was rather annoyed at his car for that...

I made cookies today. they are yummy. =D

Free Christmas Music

2009-12-13T20:13:42Z

In case anyone cares and/or wants free Christmas music, iTunes is giving out a free album this week. 21 full songs, completely free and by people I'm sure you've probably heard of (Like Aretha Franklin... and Steven Colbert XD.)

I rarely say no to free music, I figured I'd share the tip with anyone else who was interested.

...umm, this is me not writing my Lit paper. >>"

5 Days until Canada! =D

Refrigerator

2009-11-17T04:35:48Z

Rejected Haiku from my ideas for Japanese Lit.

Rejected because they are not legit enough.

But first, you probably all got this one already:

Colored leaves falling
A zombie eating your brain
Your aim was not good.

Unfortunately, that's the only one with zombies:

The dead of the night
a dog's bark breaks the silence
but nobody hears.

The wind in the trees
Blowing colored leaves westward.
Winter approaches.

not really legit, but I thought it was kind of adorable:

If the rain pours down
and the sky darkens to gray
I will still be here.

I had more, but they suck. and I don't really want to share a few of them until I turn it in. I dunno, I'm paranoid. Hopefully I can figure it out by the time it is due (=.

On a completely unrelated note, I am in music nerd mode right now. (=

11. In British Literature, My friend and I had a fanclub devoted to Sydney Carton from the book A Tale of Two Cities. He is the original emo kid.
12. I am a huge music nerd. I like finding new music and sharing it with people.
13. I get really sad when people don't like the music I recommend to them. )=
14. My mom used to try to get me to try out for Jeopardy. I always knew most of the answers, but I knew if I were put on the spot I wouldn't be able to think fast enough.
15. I really like to own CDs.
16. I like being complimented on my clothing. I like to think I have a fun style.
17. I collect stuff from various countries. My family is friends with many groups of missionaries, so I've had a lot of cool stuff for years.
18. I wish I had more time to read for fun.
19. I'm apparently really good at baking and I don't know what I do differently than everyone else.

34. I hate being messy.
35. my favorite kanji are the ones for "prisoner" 囚人because it is a person in a box with a person looking in at him.

38. I don't really like driving.
39. I don't like change very much.
40. I think South Park is hilarious.
41. I'm kind of a snob. But at least I admit it.
42. I want to knit a sweater or some kind of top.
43. Growing up, most of my good friends were left-handed.
44. I love roller coasters. I usually have to drag someone on them with me kicking and screaming.
45. I like that I have naturally long eyelashes.
46. I hate swimsuit shopping for reasons that most people already know.
47. I hate when people use "good" as an adverb (in place of "well").
48. I have trouble reading texts where T9 has changed one word to something else. It's really hard sometimes for me to get it from context.
49. I wish I was more athletic, but I fail miserably at sports.
50. As much as I love music, I hate dancing. Maybe because I'm bad at it, but I just really don't like it.

Also, this song is awesome! (albeit a tad bit cheesy).

I Still Think About it, Even Now...

2009-11-12T04:50:14Z

maybe that's why I'm in such a funk.

2009-11-10T21:53:00Z

This is me skipping Japanese Lit after nearly having a panic attack this morning.

No, I don't really want to talk about it.

...in other news, I've been feeling kind of sick for the last few days. I blame stress and not the awesome chicken we made for dinner on Saturday.

...and I bombed a test yesterday. Because it's a linguistics class and the teacher expects us to do long division by hand which was a skill I never really picked up. No, I'm not kidding, I suck at division. Like, really badly.

so yeah, this week has been complete and utter fail so far. I don't normally emo in my journal like this so you know it is bad.

I so need Thanksgiving break...

Nostalgic Win!

I need to find a plate or something to block it with, mine are a bit too big, I don't want to stretch it a lot.

I am extremely sad that I am not.

I am not a hand model

2009-08-13T18:27:47Z

I still need to make the other one.

My hands are TINY. I had to alter the pattern a bit to make them fit... and to fix some of the common imperfections of the gloves themselves (using the bind-off they suggest makes them start to curl at the end, and doing the thumb the way they tell you apparently puts a hole in it somewhere.) ...and the thumb is still a tiny bit too big, but whatever, it still looks ok (=

I like it, the color is much prettier than in my crappy phone picture. it's much brighter and more blue. and it's so soft (12% cashmere, 55% merino wool, 33% microfibre) pretty expensive, but so worth it (=

I am not a hand model, you can see by the silly gestures that I am just a dork dX

Slightly Productive...

2009-07-23T01:22:22Z

I made this:

white_dahlias @ 2009-07-17T00:55:00

2009-07-17T05:03:31Z

I miss my wisdom teeth )=

I saw HP6. It was... decent I guess. They spent too much time making it all "I love this person blah blah blah" and "doom doom doomy doom doom" and not so much on important plot elements... like who the title's namesake was \=. Also, the best characters were barely in it.

Then again, I never had very high hopes for the movie, so I guess it doesn't matter.

on another (adorable) note. They're making a movie based on Where the Wild Things Are. I loved that book when I was little. =D

also, lots of kids movies, another crappy "end of the world disaster movie" from the people who brought you The Day After Tomorrow, and a Tim Burton movie not starring Johnny Depp (dun dun dun...)

I think pain makes me hyper-critical of Hollywood's ability to make something entertaining.

Words

2009-07-03T04:20:16Z

Reply to this meme by yelling "Words!" and I will give you five words that remind me of you. Then post them in your LJ and explain what they mean to you.

Japanese: ...is the bane of my existence! Why am I majoring in it again? I think it is because I enjoy torturing myself.

Tea House: ...is much more fun than partying. I know that makes me totally lame. >>". Also, Kevin and I pwn at Scrabble!

DDR: ...is something that before last year nobody could ever convince me to do in public... and now I'm...decent at it. I miss it now. It's not as fun to play at home and my dog always wants to play too, which messes everything up. >>"

Lothrop: ...is the best dorm ever, but I wish I didn't have to live there for another year, especially not alone )=

Phipps: ...was the beginning of one of the best days ever with the best person ever. <3

What I Found in My Room, Part 2

2009-05-22T20:18:10Z

This is part 2 of the entry from yesterday. Part one was a mini-rant, this is not.

I found recipes for Japanese food. I had to make them for a presentation my group did before we left for Japan. I have 3, All of which are credited to Setsuko Yoshizuka. If anyone tries them, tell me how they turn out.

Hiyashi Chuka - Japanese Cold Noodles
Hiyashi Chuka is made with chuka soba noodles and is served with lots of toppings and sour dressing.

Makes 4 Servings

INGREDIENTS
- 4 Packages of chuka noodles/ Chinese egg noodles
- 1/4 lb strips of ham/ boiled chicken breasts
- 1 Cucumber
- 1 Tomato
- 4 tsps beni shoga (pickled red ginger)
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp sugar

For dressing:
- 1/3 cup water
- 3 tbsps rice wine vinegar
- 2 tbsps Soy Sauce
- 3 tbsps Sugar
- 1 tsp Sesame Oil

- *Karashi Mustard as needed

PREPARATION
Beat eggs in a bowl and add sugar and mix well. Heat some oil in a frying pan and pour about one quarter of the egg mixture in the pan. Spread the egg thinly and fry for one min. Make four thin, round omelets like crepes. Slice the omelets into thin strips. Cut cucumber into thin strips. Cut tomato into thin rounds. Boil water in a large pan and add noodles. Boil noodles for a couple of minutes. Drain noodles and pour cold water quickly to cool them. Put cold noodles on a plate. Place toppings on noodles. Add dressing right before eating. Add karashi if you would like.

Kushidango - Sweet Dumplings

INGREDIENTS

- 1 1/3 cup rice flower
- 3/4 cup warm water

For sauce:
- 2/3 cup water
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 1/2 tbsps soy sauce
- 1 1/2 tsps corn starch (it asks for "katakuriko" -dogtooth violet starch, but I wouldn't know where to get that so substitute cornstarch)
- 1 1/2 tbsps water

- Bamboo skewers

PREPARATION
Put rice flower in a bowl and add warm water. Knead the dough well. Make small round dumplings. Place dumplings in a steamer and steam them on high heat for 10 minutes. Cool dumplings and skewer them on sticks (about 3-4 per skewer). Mix water, sugar and soy sauce in a pan and put it on medium heat. Mix water and cornstarch in a cup and set it aside. When the sauce boils, add the starch mixture and mix quickly. Slightly grill the skewered dumplings and brush the sauce over them. Makes four servings.

*Note: When I tried this one, I think I might have made them a bit too big because they were kind of sticky on the inside. try making them rather small.

Sweet Pumpkin

INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 medium kabocha (Japanese pumpkin)
- 2 tbsps sugar
- 2 tbsps butter
- 1 tbsp milk
- 1 egg
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder

PREPARATION
Peel kabocha and cut it into small chunks. Heat kabocha in microwave until softened. Put kabocha pieces in pan and mash them. Add sugar, butter, milk, vanilla and cinnamon. Put the pan over low heat and mix well. remove from heat and let cool. Shape the dough into small and long ovals. Place ovals on an oven pan. Bake at 375 degrees F for 10 minutes.

*When I made these, they didn't come out right because we couldn't find the right kind of pumpkin and my mom thought it would work if we substituted pumpkin pie filling. It didn't. Sorry, this one might be hard. )=

If I can find any other cool stuff, I'll put them here.

Some Random Stuff:

2009-05-22T01:34:33Z

First thing: Firefox has been having issues for a long while now, so I am trying out Google Chrome. I kind of like it so far.

Second: I was cleaning my room today because my mom was getting annoyed with my "spring cleaning" attitude downstairs... So I was going through a whole bunch of papers in my desk drawer. Among all my old physics notes and People to People handouts, I found 2 interesting things. I want to post them here. I'll put one in this post and one in the next as they are not really related at all.

So, the first thing I found is a bit of research I had done for a speech in 12th grade English class. I was supposed to argue against music censorship. While looking for quotes and things to help prove my point (I remember finding one from Frank Zappa, but I couldn't find it, it was a neat quote, though.) I came across a list of songs that the big radio stations had blacklisted after 9/11. The list seemed horrifically stupid to me then, and it still does. Some of the songs, I can kind of understand... but others. It's just ridiculous that they would be banned.

(Please note that I have lost the source of this list, as I could not find the bibliography amongst the hundreds of pages of crap that I threw away)

Slipknot: "Left Behind," "Wait and Bleed"
Bush: "Speed Kills"
311: "Down"
Stone Temple Pilots: "Big Bang Baby," "Dead and Bloated"
Nena: "99 Luftballons/99 Red Balloons"

Some of these, I just don't understand...

Censorship bothers me. They let Britney Spears run around singing "F-U-C-K Me!" (That's what she's saying, in case anyone didn't catch her attempt to be "clever" in her new song) where anyone can hear, and yet they didn't want to play any song that had the word "airplane" in it, regardless of how harmless it was.

I bought a book called Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.

I saw it in Borders and the title made me laugh. Zombies make everything better.
My life is boring XD.
