No, but seriously now, Dujun's expression during Bad Girl's chorus is hilarious hahaha
I don't know. I think I find their Engrish endearing....... ugh. Something's wrong with my brain.
- Open your music library.
- Put it on shuffle.
- Press play.
- For every question, type the song that's playing.
- When you go to a new question, press the next button.
- Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool.

"I can't find the words to say, but they're overdue. I've traveled half the world to say I belong to you."
I've been trying to get into listening to classical music. It's been kind of working. I'm not training myself to listen to it, mind you, but it's easier for me to write and finish homework assignments while listening to instrumental music as opposed to Emily Haines or Great Lake Swimmers.
I bought a Japanese grammar book at Barnes and Noble today where, incidentally, they were playing the theme song to Harry Potter. It was awesome for all of 7 seconds before they cut it off :(
Anyway, about the book, it's not like a textbook, mainly just something for me to reference to while I'm studying. The one thing that irks me about it is that it doesn't have any hiragana or kanji in it, it's all romanized. They also don't really include the "ja nai desu" and "-kunai" forms of nouns and adjectives respectively. They stress instead on "dewa arimasen" and "-ku arimasen" forms, both of which I don't like to use because they confuse me when I go to conjugate them. They don't even say that "ja arimasen" is an equivalent to "dewa arimasen."
However, considering it was only $7 and I already know enough about negating verbs, nouns, and adjectives, I suppose it doesn't really matter all that much. Besides, I only bought it because there's a section on particles that explains, to an extent, the different uses of each one. They also touch on when to use "wa" and when to use "ga."
I might be making a language blog or something in the future, just to help me study the material. I find that if I don't keep studying it, I end up forgetting a lot of the vocabulary and usages. It's the same with kanji though.
I really wanted to start learning Korean, too, but apparently no one in the state of Indiana wants to learn Korean because there was--wait for it..... only ONE book on Korean in the language section of Barnes and Noble.
One fucking book.
It seems like such a difficult language to learn... I still don't know how to correct pronounce the "eo" sounds, like in 서 (seo). And the funny thing is, I can read most Korean characters (although the "wa," "wo," and "we" ones still throw me off), but I can't speak a word of it other than "Hello" and "My name is..." I read Korean really slowly and I still mess up on some of the romanization, haha.
Oh well, maybe if I get really bored over Winter break, I'll try and study it. Maybe.
My midterm in Logic was today. I'm not sure how I did. I'm pretty sure I missed at least 2 big questions because I got confused. Of course, it may have to do with the fact that I waited until this morning to study and still only managed to really get in half an hour of studying, but I blame it on... uh... the weather. Yeah. It's the weather's fault.
I really like Logic though. It's a fun class. Or maybe I just like it because it's not that damn Finite class that I failed... twice. No, Logic is a lot better than that, or it is so far. I don't like translating categories that much, but for some reason I like drawing Venn diagrams and figuring out whether arguments are valid or not. I'm a very troubled person.
Well, this entry was extremely long. I think I'm going to go read some of that Japanese grammar book even though I probably won't remember any of it by tomorrow. Yay!
For a day and a night, I stayed beside him until I had no hope.
So I came down the hill. Of course I was hurt, but then I started to think, It shouldn't hurt me to be free. It's what I really need to pull myself together.
But if it's so good being free, would you mind telling me why I don't know what to do with myself?
There's a bar by the dock where I found myself drinking with this man.
He offered me a cigarette and I accepted 'cause it's been a very long time.
As it burned til the end, I thought of the boy no one could ever forget.

To pull myself together...
So, I stumbled upon a nice site for color palettes for the lazy people who don't like to think up their own color schemes and for the unambitious people who don't like to waste time thinking up their own color schemes.
'So, what is this awesome site?' you may ask. Well, it's COLOURlovers of course!
It's pretty cool. You can download patterns and color palettes to use on your website or in a layout. They even have a section called 'Trends' where they post up color palettes from professional websites and magazines. It's amazing, really. I spent 2 hours looking at it when I could have been watching Criminal Minds. (Yes, I am still in the midst of watching season 1. I can't believe how long it's taking just to watch 22 episodes, albeit they're 44 min. each since it's normally a 1-hour long show w/ commercials, but still! ...I'll fangirl about that later.)
Anyway, I forgot Epik High's album was coming out today, or yesterday in South Korea. I wonder how long it will take for someone to upload it.
Speaking of uploaders, though, you know what I really love about albums that are uploaded the day they come out? There are a bunch of dumbasses who rip the CD at, like, 96 kbps and it's just ridiculously bad. I hate it when that happens because then I have to download a better version of it later when, really, people should learn how to edit the fucking OPTIONS when they first go to rip it.
But I can't really complain, or at least my conscience is telling me I shouldn't, because I am getting these things for free and it's not like anyone had to upload it. I should be grateful. Yes, 'should be,' but not necessarily 'am.' It's not like I download everything though, just some things. And as for music, I end up buying the albums that I truly like, unless it's completely out of my way and I'd have to pay $7 for S&H. It may not seem like much, but if it's only a $10 album, $7 is a lot.
Man, I need to get a job.
After the conversation you were done.
Telephone off the hook, you're nowhere.
Can we survive through all the bitterness
trying to break apart my faithfulness?
You won't tell me that it's not what you want.
"Sorry."
Not what you want.
Don't speak again.
Every sidewalk passerby, my sigh
echoing down the road in dial tone.
Every street that I stopped to confess,
offering every moment faithfulness.
You won't tell that it's not what you want.
"Sorry."
Not what you want.
Don't speak again.
Not what you want.
"Sorry."
Not what you want.
Don't make a sound.
Via Satellite - Faithfulness
Classes start Wednesday. I don't want to go.
Take my photo off the wall if it just won't sing for you.
'Cause all that's left has gone away and there's nothing there for you to prove.
Oh, look what you've done.
You've made a fool of everyone.
Oh, well, it seems like such fun
until you lose what you had won.
Give me back my point of view 'cause I just can't think for you.
I can hardly you say "What should I do?" Well, you choose.
Oh, look what you've done.
You've made a fool of everyone.
Oh, well, it seems like such fun
until you lose what you had won.
Oh, look what you've done.
You've made a fool of everyone,
a fool of everyone,
a fool of everyone.
