Everyone loves to get mail...
And I'm a strange one that even likes junk mail or bills...
Because it shows someone cares enough to put my name on an envelope!! =]
But it's really awesome, when you open a package...
And there's CHOCOLATE...
Definitely worth leaving the room for that, haha...
So...
What's going on here?
Um...
It's crunch time, I guess...
There's one month left of school...
And Mom said if I don't do well, I'm not coming back...
(I beg to differ, Mom!! Not gonna stay home even if you make me!!)
So there are papers to write...
Projects to wrap up...
Priorities to rearrange...
Sigh...
And lots of headaches, of course.
But as long as I get breakfast, I'm usually okay... =]
In other news...
If you're bored...
If you have time...
If you feel like something new...
A few suggestions...
"Piano no Mori"
(Literally 'Piano of the Forest' or 'Forest Piano')
It's full of classical music, which is rockin' awesome, and it's in Japanese, which is ALSO awesome...rather switched on, actually. And the story-line is decent, it's not crude, rude or unacceptable, it's not even a romantic plot-line, just a story about two friends playing piano, and how they approach it. If I was a critic, I'd give it five out of five stars, and even the lame scenes just aren't that lame...so look it up, on YouTube or wherever, or maybe even just splurge and buy the thing!! Oh, and you can read the manga version on MangaFox as well, if you so desire.
Mario Paint Composer
It's Mario. It's music. What more do you need? And okay, so it's not like you can make a masterpiece off the bat, it's actually a little bit difficult, but it's fun, it's awesome, and, well, if you find yourself wanting to give up...go ahead. Some of us are composers, some of us are just a kid sitting in the back row of the audience...but make sure you look it up on YouTube so you can see how awesome it can be.
Fritz Lang's Metropolis
So in this world of fast-action flicks and out-of-this-world special effects, sometimes it's nice to sit back and watch a classic. And considering it was made before even my grandparents were born, 'classic' is the word we're looking for. It's German Expressionism to the max, and while sets might be cheesy and acting is sub-par, it's a great look at how film-making began, and it's a pretty cool view of what society could be.
Mafia Wars
Okay, I know, why waste my time? But it's actually highly addictive, and I kind of like the feel of being 'Don'. Money rolls in, you've got an entire 'Family' at your disposal, and if you get hurt, well, it only takes a click of a mouse for the doctor to make a personal visit and you're back on your feet. Plus, it's simple, and doesn't take too much effort to do well, so you really can't lose, and hey, winning is good, right? Of course, I know for some, even a click of a mouse is too much effort...but if you still want your mafia fix, try these awesome flicks: The Godfather, Mickey Blue Eyes, Oscar, Goodfellas, My Cousin Vinny, The Untouchables...and there's more where that came from.
That's all I got for now, the sun in shining through my window, which I think means I need to start getting ready for the day, so I'll sign off...
Hope all's well with the rest of you!!
