NINE IN THE AFTERNOON, BITCHES.

This shit is amazing. Seriously. I want some of what they're smoking. <33333333

EEEE THE HARMONIES AND THE BELLS AND THE GLORIOUS STRINGS AND BRENDON'S VOICE AND THE CHEERFUL THING THE GUITAR DOES AND UGH UGH UGH THEIR FAAAAACES.

(REST OF ALBUM NAO PLZ.)

Your eyes are the size of the moon

Sometimes it's the little moments that make your day. This morning after my 9 AM lecture, I walked past my friend Niall (the one from chemistry, not sci fi) cycling in, wearing his adorable hat with the earflaps. He smiled his shy yet beautiful smile, which always looks like it's stealing its way across his face of its own volition, taking him by surprise. I smiled back brightly and gave a little wave. A few steps past him, I turned over my shoulder for another look, as you do, and my eyes met his smile-crinkled ones, as he was doing the same thing. I quickly turned back and my face split into a massive grin - there may or may not have been a giggle, you can't prove anything!

So, there's that :)

This morning, I also pre-orded my obscenely expensive Pretty. Odd. deluxe package. I'm quite excited for it, but slightly bitter because 1) What the hell am I going to do with a huge clunky disc of plastic? and 2) Shipping was $20, largely because of said disc of plastic. However, I know this is something I'll probably regret not having, and if I end up not liking the album or something crazy like that, I can always sell it, probably for a pretty penny. My rationalization for spending the $70 (!) is that I'm not going to be going to a concert any time soon, and I would have spent far more than that had I tried to make it to one of the UK shows in March (which I have, for the record, decided against). So! That's that. You better be really fucking adorable in that DVD, Panic children!

Last night I spent over two hours chatting with new friend Paul on MSN, and a good while texting with Dara who is hilarious and sweet. Together they make up this duo of overwhelming adorable, I can't even stand it omg <3333 They're both coming to my house party on Friday, yaye! Paul is really fun to chat to on MSN, he's actually expressive and uses full sentences and cute little XD smilies and is generally just so cute. (My experience with most guys I know irl online is... pretty much the opposite. Boring and terse, yawn!) He talked about how he's usually very introverted in social situations, and I was very proud that he wasn't like that at all when we were hanging out, because I didn't let him withdraw from the fun. \o/ Tonight we're hanging out at the sci fi Halo3 tournament, rock on geek power!

Still really really happy you guys. Still waiting for the other shoe to drop! I even had an amazing lecture this morning at 9 AM, what the hell. Bwee :)

Oh how wrong we were to think that immortality meant never dying

I just bought Panic tickets!!!!...for my dad and sister. Heh. Went off without a hitch, but now I'm wondering what I got them into. General admission? For a seating-only theater? Really? Bleh. I hope they have a good time :-/

To distract myself, let's transcribe this awesome speech by Gee at the beginning of a live performance of Our Lady of Sorrows I've got downloaded. I think it's from one of the UK single releases, this was attached to it as a bonus.

"When the sun, when the sun is shining, and the angels are all aligned in fucking heaven, that's what we're having right here, right now, we're having a fucking moment, and you guys are all part of it!" (mumble mumble as Matt (?) and Frank and Ray get a little enthusiastic) "We have so many things to show you guys, and we have a whole night to do it! Okay. You guys are here to see us, I'm hopin'! So if you're here to see us, you probably came with your best friend, or one of your best friends. You turn to that motherfucker, you grab them by the throat, and say, 'YOU'RE MY BEST FUCKING FRIEND, AND I WOULD DIE FOR YOU.' We got a song all about it, it's called Our Lady of Sorrows!"

CUE AWESOMENESS. *rocks out* Download! --> Our Lady of Sorrows (Live) You can almost hear the crowd more than Gee, but it's an awesome performance regardless. So much energy! I need to see them again, gah.

I bought the new NME today, complete with shiny Gee-is-a-girl poster! Plus, bonus Boosh poster AND Noel Fielding poster! I LOVE HIS RIDICULOUS FACE. Yaaay. <3

Ugh ok I really need to do this reading for my 9 AM tutorial tomorrow, sigh.

(I seriously could have JUST THIS ICON and never get sick of it. OH GEE.)
