ugh, sounds like it.

I'm winning a school award tonight, I think it's for service. I'm not a fan of maths...I get into some stuff in my Maths A class but so many things have so many minor details that need to be considered. I'm always about half a mark away from getting an A-.

Racing to finish an essay merely hours before the deadline is fun.

It's even more fun racing to finish it days after the deadline.

I just finished my damn essay about 5 minutes ago, submitted it electronically and everything. Now I just have to go drop off a hardcopy at the university later today and I have no more official schoolwork until december.

I turned my girlfriend into an Afghan Whigs fangirl this weekend.

Iai

11-03-2005, 06:36 AM

On another, slightly related point, I love how disarmed people get when they find out how much I love The Magic Numbers. Most people (especially those who can access my hall's iTunes network) think I only listen to stuff they've never heard of because I'm trying to make a point or something. It just makes me laugh that people can't get it through their heads that maybe, I have so much music because I love a lot of the mainstream stuff I know, and just want more.

I have a question. What is the difference between zipping an album and e-mailing it to someone and zipping an album, putting it on YSI and then emailing the YSI link?

superpeer

11-04-2005, 01:42 PM

The difference is that you attach the zipped album in the first case and you just put the link in the text part of the e-mail in the latter.

Many e-mail services don't allow large attachments, so mailing a link might be more convenient, although it is an extra step you must take.

lilsolsman

11-04-2005, 02:16 PM

Depends on what style you're into but I'd say either Viva Hate or Your Arsenal. He doesn't record very good albums though, just a handful of good songs. If you're new to him a singles collection or compilation might be better suited.

I love how i mentioned Morrissey and you responded within 5 minutes. :)

Thank you, though.

I was thinking Viva Hate because that's the album that has the song Angel, Angel, Down We Go Together (I think) and that song is rediculously great.

But we get more DEP than the average cities. They came for two different festivals in a span of just a couple weeks (Warped and Gigantour).

I know what you mean. The acting and emotions were excellent, but I felt it was a little lacking in the content department. Also, that cool part in the previews where the guy's behind the huge gun and he blows a bubble isn't in the movie.

I saw Saw II in the same day. It was gross.

Zappa

11-06-2005, 04:38 PM

What did you hate about it?

Basically, I found it impossible to feel for any of the characters. I think this is because they weren't developed in such a way that I could identify them as human beings first, drug victims second. The characters seemed to me like vehicles for displaying disturbing images, and that to me kept said images from being nearly as effective as they could have been.

I just started The Da Vinci Code on strict orders from basically everyone I know.
