1. What’s up with me losing everything today? This is so not on. I’m upset over losing my favorite earring, it took me ten minutes for me to locate my iPod this morning, and another five minutes to find my iPod USB cable. :[

2. Aikawa Nanase and Shiina Ringo are the Queens of Japanese Rock.

3. As much as I love Hell Week and I like being a sophomore rep (so I know all the behind-the-scenes stuff!), I am so exhausted and can’t wait for it to be over. I am, however, excited to see my hellee all gussied up for the traditional Crashing the Shipley Dance! I told her that she needed to collect numbers from all the boys– but they had to be written on her body. :P Yes, I’m mean. But my heller made me do the same thing last year– so it’s tradition!

4. I need to get my hands on some more J-rock songs. Where did Luna Sea, Uverworld, and The Pillows go?! (I still have the FLCL soundtracks though.)

I lost a lot of my collection during the Great Data Migration of ‘08 (translation: got a new macbook, old computer refused to give up some of my music, manga, and old writing–woeangst). I keep listening to Shiina Ringo and while I still rank OLIVIA my favorite Japanese artist ever (and favorite artist in general, she’s really that amazing)  Haiiro no Hitomi gives me chills. Shiina Ringo is a goddess.

5. I can’t wait to watch New Moon at the Campus Center. I hate the Twilight series and everything it stands for (DEAR IMPRESSIONABLE YOUNG WOMEN, please know that you should totally abandon your family for the selfish reason of being with your STATESQUE ASSHOLE UNDEAD LOVE) but at least it brings the lulz. If it’s truly painful, I have a stand-in date with Netflix. I can’t wait to see Love*Com.

6. Today was a “no make up day”. Stress and Hell week have caused havoc on my skin. Sleep schedule? Completely disrupted. That said, I’m surprised it’s not worse. Looks like my skin is on the mend!

I’ve gotten used to wearing make up just because a) I like sparkly things b) I need to wear blusher or I look like a ghost c) spending three minutes in the morning gives me a chance to orient myself /to get myself human before stepping out the door.

I also like to look nice. And I try to look nice. (I try really hard to look nice, okay.) On days when I go “screw it, I’m too tired to bother” I will inevitably bump into someone I like/want to impress. Every time. I just like to play it safe.

Waaatch me me bump into someone I like and become completely mortified. No make up, mussed up hair, my loosest pair of jeans, and a Columbia fleece. (I ought to do something about my bangs– they’re getting too long again.)
