Music o' the Entry: "4th...", Gackt
Holy insane, I love Gackt. I mean, seriously, the guy's awesome and
utterly bizarre, it's not so odd to see how he was a member of Malice
Mizer and again why he's not. Seriously, the guy makes Mana look
normal, if not necessarily in appearance. Yes indeedy, looking quite
forward both my Moon and ROENTGEN CD's, though the latter
is by hyde of L'Arc~en~Ciel, who's pretty weird in his own way. Praise
those silly X-Japan MIDI's I first heard on the defunct site belonging
to one Kokuyou that introduced me to the whole bizarre grand world of
Japanese music. Actually, I think just because I like him so much,
I'm going to listen to him for the rest of the evening, thus making
this a ridiculously Gackt-ful entry.
Yesterday was filled of spending day with Matt, to help me study math
so I don't flunk, which I have a habit of doing when mathematics are
concerned. It was grand, except we went to Eatza Pizza since I got a
new paycheck recently and I ate too much, which led me to become
spectacularly disappointed in myself. I've done well recently on the
not eating too much front, but alas, the devilish charms of the
extra-cheese and hamburger pizza, so reminding me of that in my youth
of Mr. Gatti's in Louisiana, conquered yet again and left me comatose
for a time. Tonight work was pretty hectic so I'm a bit tired, but I
think after I finish this here entry I shall spend some quality time
with my exercise bike and Final Fantasy Tactics.
Today was interesting, for I was speaking with my mother about my
housing wants and abilities and whatnot and somehow we came to the
conclusion that I should move out near my college sometime within the
oh, next week and a half or so, mostly because come autumn quarter
my income will be significantly larger. Anyway, I was excited but
was also greeted by an unexpected sense of loss, primarily involving
my great cat Aisrael and the piano. Sure, I'd only live about 30 miles
away and I can call and speak to my family anytime, but I can't do
the same with two of things within the walls of home my home that
thrill me the most, Aisrael and the piano (thanks in no small part
to my recently-acquired Final Fantasy X book). But those plans came
to a screeching halt when I took some other financial things into
consideration, and thusly shall not be moving out until winter quarter
at the absolute soonest. How odd my life can be at times.
In veritable nova of glee, I seem now to be stumbling across the new
diaries of diarists whose previous records I had truly looked forward
to reading daily. Namely, I speak of the diaries of
Mud and Bianca. This makes
me so happy, I've much reading to do...
When I came home last night, I was greeted by an e-mail from Miho, which
initially made me happy until I saw the contents. She's apparently
not enjoying her trip to Syracuse, and misses myself and my family and
wants to come back here this blessed minute, and has been doing her
fair share of crying, including while she wrote the message. That makes me so sad, I want her to enjoy her trip
to the US, not to miss me so. Poor dear, I'd love to fly over there
to be with her if I could, it's quite depressing. Miho ni aitai yo!
Speaking of flying, the lovely and talented Misha
should be in Kyoto by now. It makes me happy, she'll get to see her
high school friends over there prior to their graduation, similar to what
I did over a year ago. I shall pay close attention to her new Kyoto
adventures and live vicariously through her, because I do things like
that.
As I mentioned earlier in the entry, I'm back to playing Final Fantasy
Tactics for the umpteenth time and am cheating like an absolutely psycho,
which oddly doesn't bother me by the virtue that this IS the umpteenth time,
and I shall do as I please. The cheating I speak of is known as the
Page-Down Glitch, of which more research may be obtained at
GameFAQ's for the curious. It's ridiculously helpful, particularly
in classes that require frightful amounts of JP to master, such as
Summoner. I just got into Chapter 4, and currently have Ramza mastering
the Thief class, attempting valiantly to make Rafa and Malak not
suck (yes, supposedly there IS a way, and I'm always up for a challenge),
and mastering my first Calculator. Exciting, no? Anyway, my playing
of FFT has caused me to stumble across an epiphany: I like leveling
things up. No, I mean I REALLY like leveling things up. Now that I think
about it, I can recognize such a trend with ease. I spoke of this with
Matt, and he told me that Xenosaga is to have three different sorts of
experience points, which makes me to wet myself with joy. Let the
leveling commence!
In addition to liking leveling up very much, I also like singing very
much, and am attempting to remedy my vocal atrophy as to be able to
sing Chitose Hajime songs with the best of 'em when I set foot in a
karaoke booth again. That's another bad thing about an apartment,
I doubt I can sing so much and to the volume I prefer. Oh, and I also
plan to sing lots of Gackt and some Chihiro Onitsuka.
In other news, I abhor the President. It's not something I usually
speak of here, because when I make a political proclamation it seems to
inevitable conflagrate into something foul (which may have something to
do with belonging to a conservative family), and particularly online
many people seem to be able to speak of political far more eloquently
and effectively than I (visit the journal of
Metacarp for a shining example, and please also view his writings in
regards to the anniversary of September 11th. It makes my screaming-lefty
heart beam with pride.), so I don't, which is quite in contrast to my
behavior offline. I am ridiculously political in person, to a fault at
times, regarding various situations, at the moment the leader of the
United States attempting to plunge us headlong into Vietnam Part Deux,
something of which I desire no part and see as so blatantly wrong that
his audaciousness for once has startled and disturbed me.
But anyway, like I said, it's not something I speak of so often, because
I don't think I'm knowledgable enough to put my thoughts into writing yet,
and I do not wish to misrepresent my views. Perhaps I should more,
silence is the same as support for such. For the moment, please visit
the journal of Metacarp, it's a good source, and also check out my
links page, I have some things directing folks to causes I support,
but the list is painfully and inexcusably brief...
But I grow weary, so off am I for the evening. Perhaps tomorrow will
feature the the debut of my cooking blog and a host of new links, to
present somewhat of an accurate representation of my beliefs and causes.
