TV taught me how to feel, now real life has no appeal.

I'm sure you're all just dying to know which stand mixer I chose.

*drum roll*

THE ICE BLUE ONE!!!

BUT Amazon is crazy and their prices fluctuate all the time so it was actually only $255.49 instead of the $285.79 it was just a couple days ago. Which means instead of almost $50 more than the cheapest one, I only paid about $16 more. Now I'm just hoping there isn't some crazy ass sale on it and I miss it by a couple days. Still, it could just as easily go up again and the sooner I get it, the sooner I can start using it. Just in case, I should probably never look at that product again.

Also, Hulu totally won April Fools this year. They've taken it down now, but when you went to their main page, it was 1996 again. Grainy pictures and everything. I took screencaps because I'm a loser, LOL.

The X-Files, Sliders, and NewsRadio )

PS I'm totally addicted to this right now. Both the vid and the song. Hell, I just bought the song from Amazon. That's saying something right there.



From here.

This shit is like porn to me



I don't even find any of them particularly attractive, but I looooove synchronized dancing. And Asian boybands/pop music in general. Not like you needed to know this. It's just that I'm trying to listen to this on Youtube while I do other stuff but I keep getting distracted by the video 0_0

Also!



I'll probably pimp again closer to the date. Come and play. It's fun :D

Sorry I keep spamming you with depressing stuff

So, while people in Japan, going through such terrible times, are being nice and showing compassion to each other, this is what people are seeing right now about America - 'UCLA Girl is going on a rant about how Asians talk on the phone in the library, Japan's Tsunami, and the "problem" of hordes of Asian people.'

I just don't have any words. She is a moron. A racist, arrogant, attention whore. I almost don't even want to share the link because I don't want her to get even more attention.

Another TERRIFYING tsunami video. A whole city/town just swept away in the water. The people watching as their homes and lives are being destroyed right in front of their eyes. I don't even want to think about any people or animals still there when it happened.

In less depressing news, I finally have corned beef and soda bread. I'm ready for St. Paddy's day now. More accurately, I'm ready for some reuben sandwiches now. *DROOL*

It's not over yet

The news about Japan just keeps getting worse D:

[9:54 p.m. ET, 11:54 a.m. Tokyo] A meltdown may have occurred at at least one nuclear power reactor in Japan, the country's chief cabinet secretary, Yukio Edano, said Sunday.

He also said that authorities are concerned over the possibility of another meltdown at a second reactor.


Also a good place for news: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-12724953

Videos like the one below are so mind boggling. You can see the ground swaying back and forth and the water underneath coming through. You can hear the waves on what used to be solid land.



If you are able, give what you can to places like:

* Red Cross
* [livejournal.com profile] help_japan (I'm thinking of offering icons or something. I always feel weird, like my stuff isn't worth money, but I'd like to help anyway I can)
* Lady Gaga has Japan Earthquake Relief Wristbands. They're only $5 and "Little Monsters, show your support for Japan with this "We Pray For Japan" wristband! Choose your price to add an additional donation with your wristband. All proceeds go directly to Japan relief efforts."
* Groupon
* Japan Society (which also has links on how to find and contact people in Japan)

Some much needed happiness

Noel/Julian 4EVAR!!!!!!!!!

I'm actually really glad to see Julian alive and well and still BFFs with Noel. Haven't heard anything about him in ages. I always get worried when duos/groups separate for too long. Makes me nervous.

I'm crampy and, it would seem, quite irritable atm. I'm too tired to think but too restless to relax. I did get one big thing done today though, so THERE!


However, the reason I'm posting is because I wanted to say that I'm soooooo happy and proud that Troy won Fandom March Madness!!

Sherlock Holmes 2 needs to be out like NOW.

And/or can we get a DVD with all interviews these two have done together? I'd be more than happy to just watch them stare at each other and snark every now and then ♥_♥

Don't much care for award shows (and yet I keep talking about them!) but here was my favorite bit from last night's Academy Awards. Also, I second, third, fourth, infinity the suggestion that these two host the show next year. I'd watch the HELL out of that.

a Picture a Day - Day Twenty-six

An elephant never forgets... to kill. )

Today was uneventful. I hate being lazy, but I feel too tired to do anything. If my mom feels up for it, tomorrow I think I'll dye my hair and go get it cut. I need something different. Maybe that'll help me get out of this funk.

PS *laughs forever*

a Picture a Day - Day Twenty-three

Today's been a bit of a hard day. )

In other news, I've been looking at some other places for baking schools/classes because a full tuition for the Art Institute is a little much. I mean, I'm sure they'd be much more thorough and maybe you'd have better chances with that behind you, but $33,000 is a little scary sounding. Especially since, while I love baking, I also loved archaeology and who knows what I'll end up doing and for how long. But I found a baking/pastry certificate at City College and it's non-credit. Which means it's FREE. I'm too late for the spring classes, but the summer schedule should be up on March 15th so I can see if it's available then. It'll be Mon-Fri 6-12pm which means 6am to noon and while that would kind of suck, at least I'd be out of the house and I'd have the rest of the afternoon free to work or whatever. I still need to do some serious thinking and planning, but the baking thing is sounding more and more plausible at least.

Also, I'm currently in love with/addicted to Jessie J. I've already posted one of her vids, 'Who You Are', but here are a few more (including that one again). Her first single is 'Do It Like a Dude' and she wrote 'Party in the USA' and based on that, you might wonder why I'm listening to her, LOL. But she seems like a genuinely nice person. She writes her own music and I love how passionate she is. She's always smiling while she sings. IDK, I just really admire that. Her music is also very inspiring and has really hit a chord with me. She also sounds great live/acoustic and I can't say that about too many artists these days. Anyways, she's my newest girlcrush and I can't wait for her CD to come out (~5 days in the UK and in the US we get it late April).



A few more vids/songs )

I need an icon of just the boys, because... BOYS!



They make me grin like an idiot XD In a how-can-they-be-so-adorable way. Bradley & Colin (Merlin) and the cast of Psych have that effect on me as well. And Matt & Karen (Doctor Who, of course). I just love it when actors get along so well and make me wish I was cool enough to hang out with them *happy sigh*

Man, I wish I had my Photoshop right now. Screencaps. Icons. So cute. Can't stand it. FIXING EACH OTHER'S TIES.

While I'm here I might as well mention the most recent episode of White Collar )

When you are here, music is all around.

Today I was finally able to visit this Irish bakery and get the pastie I've been craving FOREVER. I got two - one for today and one for tomorrow - but now I'm wishing I had gotten more. Mmmm... so good.

Had a friend cancel on me today (for a very good reason) but instead of being all anti-social, I called another friend and asked what she was doing. I still had to give her her Christmas present anyway. So I went downtown, peeked into Lush and treated myself to some King of the Mods since I haven't had any in ages and I really love it, read for a bit until she got off work and met up with her. Her hubby picked us up and we had a lovely dinner and watched two movies, the first one being really good ('Exit Through the Gift Shop') and the other being not-so-great ('Grimm').

Tomorrow, or I guess today now, I have one more movie to watch and then I think I'm going to spend the rest of the day watching Sherlock, Doctor Who, White Collar, IDK. Maybe I'll start some of those shows I've been meaning to watch. I should also probably read some Sherlock fic. I haven't felt like reading lately, so I've been saving links and I have quite a few saved up.

Also, totally woke up with this playing in my brain -

Soooooooooo what does everyone else do in their free time? I fall in love with complete strangers online and maybe ship them a little DON'T JUDGE ME!

I was trying to watch a movie and how did it happen...? Oh, yeah. I saw that [livejournal.com profile] beetle_breath had posted a Sherlock fic so I went to read that and there was a suggestion to look up Potassium Chlorate and gummy bears on Youtube so I did that (it was awesome) and then I saw a related video about the World's Largest Gummy Bear (which is 5 lbs, equal to 1,400 regular gummy bears, and is 12,600 calories) by a company called Vat 19 and the video was funny so I looked at another one and another one and now I kinda love these two idiots.



PS The site has some pretty cool stuff.
