Friday Morning Update

Nifty LJ Goodies:
http://www.livejournal.com/stats/latest.bml --- View the headlines of the latest posts made on LJ. Very cool! (I even saw gaelicbrigitte in there when I looked!)

Sleep Deprivation:
I got a lot of sleep last night. Managed to wake up at a decent hour this morning too. Actually had time to relax before flying out the door to come to work. Of course, I had ulterior motives for getting up...

Playstation:
FINAL FANTASY!!!! *BOUNCES*

Bought Final Fantasy Origins last night. Played part of Final Fantasy this morning. Ok, I leveled up once and bought spells and started the first quest. Big whoop. I'm being a boob and playing it in Easy mode, basically cuz I want to see them wind up with a bazillion spells. :-p I've got my Fighter (Jareth), Monk (Wren), White Mage (Tia), and Black Mage (Jarez). It shall be a grand adventure!!! Or something. After I blow through it I'll do a Normal difficulty game with a Fighter, Thief, White Mage, and Red Mage.

I like the new graphics! I do miss the old 8bit glory, but I don't think I could really stand that on a playstation for longer than 10 minutes. I can deal with the SNES style graphics, but, eh, I dunno about anything else.

Gaming:
Game day is Sunday. I hope that people get there early. Seriously. If people don't get there early I am going to have a cow. People complained that they had to wait for game to start last week and that's why they came late. Well, hello, nutfucker, THAT'S WHY YOU HAD TO WAIT! If people actually showed up EARLY the game would have started. templar_rose was ready before you all sauntered in the door. Yeah he was in bed, but he was ready, damnit! :-p

Alone Time:
I've been hanging out this week, but not nearly as much as I did the last two weeks. Reason being I'm starting to have social overload going. I like spending nice quiet time alone at home with my cats. Plus the entire catching up on sleep bit. If I didn't have a hellacious schedule like I do now I'd be much more willing to hang out on a regular basis, but I really need decompression time.

Purity Tests:
I wound up 50.24999999999999999% pure according that purity test everyone seems to be passing around right now. One of these days I'll sit down and take the 2000 point test at armory.com or wherever it was.

Friday Five

Lordy, this is going to not be easy. :-p Silly questions.

1. What was the first band you saw in concert?
Not counting middle school and high school bands and competitions, the first real band I saw in concert is Mediaeval Baebes.

2. Who is your favorite artist/band now?
Same answer as question 1.

3. What's your favorite song?
You do not ever ask this question of a music major. That should be illegal to ask. ~_~ For current-top 40/pop/whatever it'd be something by Savage Garden probably. For R&B/hip hop it'd be Waterfalls. For Classical I couldn't even begin to pick one. For Broadway/Showtunes I would say the entire soundtrack to Rent, but if I had to pick just one from it I'd say La Vie Boheme.

4. If you could play any instrument, what would it be?
Considering I already can play Clarinet and Piano... Hmm. Well, I wouldn't mind being much better at Piano than I am. Would really like to be able to play Cello or Viola or Violin or all of the above. Trust me, if money were no object, I would learn to play EVERYTHING. :-p

5. If you could meet any musical icon (past or present), who would it be and why?
Jonathan Larson. He wrote Rent. Why else? Yes, I'm shallow like that. :-p
