Dear Harmonix,

You made Beatles Rock Band, and therefore you are awesome people.

However I have had 'Paperback Writer' stuck in my head for the past week, sometimes alternating with 'Taxman.' And there is no 'Eleanor Rigby' on Rockband and I'm such a nerd with Beatles BUT ANYWAY.

...I had a point.

...

Anyway Beatles Rock Band is still epic. Rock on.

Ok, so. When roleplayreport came up and I got linked to it and read it, the first thing I wondered was, 'Who the hell is this Colbert guy?'

I have found out, and what to know why I've never heard of him before because he's hilarious.

I will name 5 fandoms. You tell me what character from that fandom I am most like, then copy and paste this to your journal. If you don't know the fandom, comment on the ones you do know.

-Kingdom Hearts
-The World Ends With You

Your result for Roleplayer Test!...

The Portraitist

Random, Character-Oriented, Platonic

As a Portraitist, the character is everything to you. You value the character's personality and development more than anything else, and your goal in roleplay is to flesh the character out in any and every way possible. You're the method actor of the roleplay world: you know your character through and through (you've probably done a ton of research) and you enjoy throwing your character into new and random situations just to prompt interesting reactions. However, you're hard to involve in any plots, mostly because ongoing stories that don't focus on exploring your character's innermost depths quickly bore you. Also, you might like to put your character in tragic/stressful situations a little too much.

Yeaaaa this is true.

Ok, so Square put out this game for the iPod that I got because it sounded totally awesome. Basically what you do is put the songs on your iPod into this thing, and it makes people to fight with you in the lovely RPG style. Now, it's a pretty awesome game in its own right, but here are something that had made me fall over laughing so far. Just because... oh, Square.

-The main character has silver hair, as does his little brother.
-The big bad guy is called Number 42.
-The main character is a 'Conductor.'
-We're apparently now looking for something called the 'Joshua Tree' while in a place called 'Electric Ladytown.'
-People who can help me out are called Superstars.

There's other stuff, but... man this game is silly. XD

Edit: ...ok so main character saw this giant eye staring at him. I bet he has the One Ring.

And that book is either the Uglies or Lolita! 8D

Finally finished 1984. I'm not entirely sure what happened at the end, there. It was rather confusing. I am reminded of the difference in genres, though. 1984 took me a good month to read (though to be fair, part of that month was spent reading House of Leaves). I'm almost done with the Uglies, and I only read it for like an hour and a half.

I have no idea how long Lolita's gonna take me.

Holy shit Video Games Live was AWESOME.

We were apparently show number 100 for them, so they added an extra encore~ One Winged Angel (with fan art slideshow) and Castlevania. Which I need to play, since I only have one of the DS games and got totally lost.

I had at least four people comment on my heartless hat, one of which took a picture, and another who pointed a video camera at me and then walked away giggling. Oo Which freaked me out a little.

Anyway, it was totally awesome and I want to go again next year if they come back~~

Also, if someone would be willing to be a co-mod of sorts, that would be great. It wouldn't require much at all- just posting for the days when I'm off doing something else and making sure I don't forget it exists.

So um.

For those I haven't told yet, I just got the reply from JMU. As I'm not spazzing out, I'm pretty sure it's clear to you all that I didn't get in. Not only is this the only college I wanted to go to, it's the only one I applied to.

I know why I was rejected- my grades aren't fabulous and I'm missing some of the language classes they want. Plus I've been homeschooled so they're not sure how I'd work in a classroom setting. It's ok, I'll take more classes next year and work really hard to get good grades. It'll work out. It's just... disheartening, you know? I know I'm a better musician than most of the people who applied to the music school, and though this sounds cocky, I was most likely the best harpist who auditioned (mind that there were only three of us).

Anyway. Yea. It'll be better tomorrow.

Soso. My jazz and improv teacher has been doing this project called 'Write Before Right' in which he writes a song a day for a straight 365 days. I haven't been listening to them recently, so I've been catching up on them this morning.

I just about died at the 'Computer Club' and 'I Can Read' songs.

Write Before Right

That's his blogsite. Most of the songs are really short, and not all of them are fabulous but hey the guy's writing a song a day. He's mostly a jazz artist, but there are a couple different sounding ones in there. But seriously, go listen to the Computer Club one and the I Can Read ones.
