( Thirty under here )

Man doing these always make me feel like my taste in music is a cross between too generic and too obscure ._.

My PokeWalker appears to be broken ._. It won't turn on anymore. It worked fine last night. I don't have a screwdriver small enough to unscrew the back and get a look at the battery. I guess it's a good thing that Wooper invaded it last night before I put Kiku the Dratini in, at least.

In other news, yesterday we got to watch TAMI, a concert in 1964 that featured, amongst others, The Beach Boys, Marvin Gaye, Chuck Barry, James Brown, and The Rolling Stones. It was pretty freaking amazing.

Looks like I'm doing my paper on the start of Marvel, too. We'll have to see how this goes =D;; I think I've found a couple good sources, at least. (did you know there was a Marvel workout book in the 70s? I'm not surprised but it is very silly anyway.)

Hnnnnnng I hate HMs I hate HMs I hate HMs

I forgot that you need Strength to get through Victory Road and I really do not want to have one of my team wasting one of their moveslots for such a lame move, it's bad enough they make me waste a Pokemon on Waterfall, what is even the point

Also, I talked with my teacher today and he was totally cool with the idea of comparing some of the ideas in EBA with the 60s music for the research paper. I'm not sure I'll do it, since I've already done a lot of junk on EBA and it might be good to branch out, but it's good to have that option. These teachers are cool people, f'real.

Blarg suddenly I have no tags to do, joining new logs what is this

First bit of class had already. I am nervous. I'll do a more in-detail post later today.

More importantly: I had a conversation with XI's Chopper-mun the other night, and he ended up putting a marvelous image in my head, for the inevitable battle versus Magneto. And it had to be drawn.

I realized last night that Tanaka is pretty much the Butt Monkey of all my muses. I'm not sure why, but he is.

Something about how he takes himself too seriously, I guess. It's so easy to knock him down a peg. His facade of confidence is just begging to be knocked down. Also, I guess, because the way I play him, he's so caught up in all that OSU business right now that he doesn't know how to enjoy himself doing much else. Which gets boring to type up again and again, so the other option is him looking like a dork all the time. And then after a while of that he gets depressed.

I am both entertained and worried for him. He needs friends soooo bad.

EDIT: Oh man Sanji made him really depressed now D= I was not planning on that.

Back home, comfortable, glad to pet my dog, considering the pile of tags I suddenly have out of nowhere.

But! I left my iPod on the airport shuttle D= I called them and they said they'll hang onto it until I get back on the 27th, but auuuuugh so long without my pod it will be such a struggle I am not kidding.

I really wish I'd tried to bring my tablet back with me so I could get more iconwork done but there was just no room in the suitcase D=

I gave blood today! I feel helpful. And not woozy at all! Like I'm part Zoro or something. Also, I got free cookies and juice afterwords =D

Man I am having so much fun with SoulSilver but I'm having trouble getting entirely satisfied with my team--I dunno if I wanna switch out my Ampharos and Slowpoke for something else.

And why the hell do I have to wait for the National 'Dex to get my Metal Coat? I want a Scizor NOW. =|

Good news/Bad news time!

Good news: Totally going to Emerald City Comic Con tomorrow.

Bad news: The girl who said she'd both drive with me down and spend time with me there has not contacted me since we last spoke four days ago, not responding at either of the telephone numbers I have nor responding to a facebook message (despite the fact that she's apparently been on facebook today), leaving me to assume something fell through. (EDIT: she messaged me to say that she can't go, she's too busy. Well, at least letting me know 10:45 the night before is better than nothing at all)

Good news: Just so happened I ran into my neighbor today, who is a cool dude and also going, so we can at least take the bus together.

Bad news: He's going to be hanging out with his sister and staying the night once we get there, so I may be on my own for a chunk of it, namely the bus ride back.

Good news: I'm going to a comic convention with Andrew Hussie, Kate Beaton, Christ Hastings and KC Green, to say nothing of the more famous individuals attending.

Double post whoop

Turns out I didn't need to worry, the Seniors for the writing class snapped up all the available spaces yesterday anyway. 1960s it is!

I have suddenly hit a dilemma with which class I should sign up for this quarter.

Okay so it was maybe a little under a year ago I made a post about how cool one of the classes listed for Spring Quarter was, entitled Popular Music and Literature of the 1960s. It generally looks awesome, and it turns out I have just enough credits to qualify for this class.

Just today my friend pointed out to me a class that was only added on in late February, entitled Heart and Mind on Screen and Page. It's all about writing, mostly for television and movies, enhancing your ability in storytelling for that particular medium.

So we've got the class that isn't specifically related to my semi-major of writing, but is very deeply connected to my interests in music, and that I've been looking forward to get into for about ten months. Then we've got the new class that is connected to my semi-major, sounds really interesting and helpful to the craft, oh and also it's taught by a guy who wrote X-Files episodes. Due to the way my college works, it is unlikely that either class will be available again after this quarter.

My timeslot to pick my class is tomorrow at noon.

Aaaaaa.
