G'day loves! In a much better mood than yesterday. It helps that the sun is shining and it's a glorious 60 degrees outside!

I'M GOING TO UMICHIGAN! *twirls* I got to tell my physics teacher all about it this morning and it got me all jazzed up again. Whee! I also got 100 on my physics test, so, you know, that was nice.

Michelle (my bestest) is off visiting UPenn today, where she got into their Elementary Education masters program. I'm SO HAPPY for my girl and I'm so glad we're both going places we love next year!

Random question for you Twitter folks - when you're subscribed to zillions of people, doesn't your phone go off every five seconds? Doesn't that get in the way of productivity? How do you ever keep track of who's saying what? The pure deluge of information in tiny bites that I cannot process properly really overwhelms me, which is why I'm not really on the bandwagon. I have one so I can Tweet at Gerard if the mood strikes, but that's about it.

[livejournal.com profile] bunnymcfoo linked me to a Pandora scrobbler for last.FM, so I used it at work today. Yay! No more music lost into the ether, sad and unscrobbled! (Yes, this matters, hush.) I've put together basically the perfect channel for myself on Pandora - the influences are The Used, Lostprophets, and Soundgarden, and it's AMAZING. Interestingly, I love what Pandora comes up with when I ask it for stuff like The Used, but not really for MCR! Odd. Also, listening to Pandora makes me realize that one of the reasons I love MCR and The Used so very very much is Gerard and Bert's voices. There are so many bands out there that sound fine right up until the singer starts. On the other hand, I could listen to Gerard and Bert for the rest of my liiiiife. ♥ That goes for Chris Cornell and his orgasmic voice as well, unf.

I really really loved Imagine Me & You, if you hadn't guessed. Here's one reason why:

His faaaaace. I'm planning on doing a big picspam over at the Goode daily comm later, I'll link it when I put it up! :D

I'm going to go venture into the world. I've got to go into lab for a while, visit the business office to ask for a refund on the $270 I spent on the SLC conference, and then sit in the sun and read! Huzzah.

Happy Friday all! <3

(If I'm not careful, I'm totally going to use this icon on every entry. His faaaaace!)

YAY FOR MICHIGAN. :D :D :D

re: the Twitter thing - tweets don't have to be sent to your phone... you can have a few feeds that have mobile updates and the rest you can simply view when you refresh your home page. :D :D :D

re: Twitter - same as above! I use TwitterBerry, and that gives me the option to check the peeps I follow at my leisure on my phone. I still have direct text for the people I actually know, but there are some accounts I follow that are extremely Twitter happy, and TwitterBerry is a GODSEND.

I don't keep text notifications turned on at all (and wouldn't even if it were re-enabled for my service provider), since I just check people's tweets using iPhone apps. Makes life a lot easier!

I didn't see a QAF poll over there. :/

That's because I'm an idiot and it's flocked! *facepalm* I'll tell her you're interested though, she's really excited about getting people involved!

[livejournal.com profile] candidlily will be uploading each episode a few days before each chat, so don't worry about it if you can't get them!

OMG, awesome!!! Not like I don't have all of them memorized by heart. Recapping those episodes involved lots of watching, re-watching, pausing, starting again...I miss it.

[livejournal.com profile] candidlily just told me that she'll make her next post about it, when we'll set the time, public, so if you want to friend her and keep an eye out for that, go ahead! :)

Matthew!! He's so adorable in that movie (and hilarious which is not surprising). PLEASE DO PICSPAM I await it with pleasure.

He's SO precious (and occasionally heartbreaking) and yes, so funny, omg. Precious boy <3 That was the role that most closely approached his own personality, I think. Which is fucking charming, obvs :D

That movie is SO ADORABLE. And I just checked out your picspam! His smile at the end when he's sitting next to Angel! ALSO, HAI THERE ANGEL. :DDD

I am still so happy about Michigan, bb. I WISH WE COULD MEET UP AND I COULD HUG YOU A LOT TO SHOW YOU HOW HAPPY I AM FOR YOU.

I have a question! You're my MCR girl and one of my friends has been pimping The Used to me but so far I only have their first album, I think. Halp? ♥♥♥

The smile is kind of creepy in still, but in the movie it's a GIGGLE and I love him soooooo much omg.

AWW PAULA YOU MAKE ME SMILE SO HARD. I'LL TAKE VIRTUAL HUGS INSTEAD! *GRABBYHANDS*

Omg you haven't listened to The Used?! I HAVE CLEARLY FAILED AT LIFE. After MCR, The Used are my most most most favorites. So I have zipped up all of their other albums for you! THE USED Contains: In Love and Death (second album), Lies for the Liars (third album), and Shallow Believer (album of B-sides from all three records, and actually probably my favorite collection from them). I think you'll LOVE them. Enjoy!! <3

He is adooorable in motion! Hee! Have you seen Chasing Liberty? He's all tanned and GORGEOUS.

VIRTUAL HUGS WILL HAVE TO DO UNTIL WE CAN GET THE REAL THING. *HUGSSS*

Eeee, omg THANK YOU!!! You are seriously THE BEST. I've already told my friend I find Bert's screaming seriously endearing and Jepha is my faaavorite and YAY MUSIC!!! I will listen and email you and flail at you.

LOVE YOU, BB. <3333333

Congraaaats, Michigan is a great school, even though I'm always going to be cheering against you in sports; my family is from Illinois. ;)
