It is seriously strange to be on campus so much first week. And, for some odd reason, I don't mind it as much (I'm hoping my iPod protects my soul. I imagine Joseph Regenstein is the sort that sucks your soul out through your ears).
So? What the heck am I doing in here? Free printing. And recovering from discovering that I never paid attention to the maps in LotR. Yes, I'm pretty sure I failed the map quiz. But, um... at least I think things were in the right order. Like, at least I didn't put the Shire right next to Mordor or anything. But... yeesh. What a way to prove you've read the books. (At least it doesn't really count for anything. And the two professors were quite nice people, for the whole two minutes that I saw them. And they seriously have the loudest door ever. It's probably not only hollow, but made of something... umm... very echo-y. Yes. End parentheses).
I don't feel like doing any more reading for CritPers, though, so I'm going to fill out that little music meme that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sketchyheart passed me a day or so ago. Wee!
01). Total volume of music files on my computer?
On my computer only 5.38 gigs (I think it's like, 1150 songs or so). I accidentally deleted a bunch of stuff after I moved it to Pantalaimon.
02). The last CD I bought was...
"Oh, Inverted World!" by the Shins. I was also going to get the Garden State soundtrack but... umm... I'm lazy or something.
03a). The last song I listened to before writing this was...
I don't remember what came up last... Nice Day by Radiohead or something, or Keep it Together.
03b). Song playing right now:
Moxy Fruvous - Lee. It's been forever since I heard this. (And now it's Light My Candle from Rent. Oh dear, I need to copy the second CD...).
04). Five songs I listen to a lot or that mean a lot to me.
This is hard. I am going to attempt not to cop-out entirely. This is... sort of a list of songs that I will not skip over on my playlist no matter what. ish.
1. BNL - Aluminum. Still in love with this song. And now it is permanently attached to that feeling of being on Amtrak at 10:30 in December leaving Chicago, going under all the huge iron bridges and thinking about the quarter.
2. Postal Service - National Anthem. Nothing attached to it as of yet, but... I dunno. The whole first part of it reminds me of the forest temple theme made happier and less creepy. And I like that sort of thing.
3. Frou Frou - Let Go. Quintessential Garden State music. Makes me think of the end every time... which is such a lovely confused bunch of things. Eee.
4. Sairen - AKFG. It's a toss between this and Yuugure no Aka and Mugen Glider. Can I count all three as one?
5. Crap, this is five already? Uhm. Guster - Come Downstairs and Say Hello. Because... it somehow reminds me of living in Youngstown. Kind of like how all of Soul Coughing's Ruby Vroom = Cleveland for some reason (or any city at night, but mostly Cleveland).
05). Which 5 people are you passing this baton to, & why?
becada422 because I don't know what you listen to anymore
antipixie for the same reason
chocolatemoose because your music always pwns mine, except when it's the same
random_prophet because I'm curious to see what kind of stuff someone else who reads Pratchett and Gaiman and watches Gankutsuou and FMA listens to
mustangactor for sheer wtf if it actually gets passed on, and I don't feel like harassing anyone else. Bwahahaha!
