- Go find The Go! Team album. (Thunder, Lightning, Strike) Listen. Ponder on why it kicks so hard. Listen some more. Dance if you feel like it. Just make sure nobodys watching.

Specifics about the presents...
- The iPod is just awesome. Nuff said.
- Blankets... READ IT. It'll change your life. It has at least one thing (often times more) that you can relate to personally... just BUY IT. I can't say anything more. It's just fucking awesome. A bit disturbing at parts, a bit intense at parts, but it's all in good taste. Must read it about 500 times more. And the clerk who gave me mum Blankets suggested Jimmy Corrigan too. Tis a good book (awesome) but there are some parts that are just screwed up. You have to read them like 5 times to get what the hell's going on. And the book skips settings and times on practically every page, so you have to reread a lot. Still fun though.
- Pikmin 2 is the greatest. It's like Warcraft with adorable-yet-homocidal plant creatures instead of Orcs. And it makes my head hurt. But in a GOOD way.
- Wot else to say... hm. Oh yeah. ISP for the house keeps screwing around, so I'm off and on the internet constantly (hopefully it got fixed permenantly this time.) So... jah. Life without the internet is surprisingly limited. Played games, ate, drew (a helluva lot, need to color em and put em on deviantART) slept... blah blah blah)
- Me sistah be in St. Kitts... yay. Just thought you'd like to know.
Further events shall be posted.
~mEh~
