See, this is what happened when I get bored before an exec meeting and start wandering around the Student Union Building. I read Council Minutes! <\/p>\n

*has just been subtly reminded that she owes people layouts* Send me an email, people, you know who you are (and, hopefully, you know what my email adress is :tensed:). Procrastinators unite! Tomorrow. (Slogan on the back of one of George’s t-shirts.)<\/p>\n

This has been one random entry. So I think I’ll add some coherency to it.<\/p>\n

In case you were wondering about the spammers, they’ve slowed down. A lot :biggrin: SK has caught every single spam comment and let all the others through ^_^ So far, that’s saved me deleting 372 comments. Hopefully it’s good enough to keep the spammers away forever.<\/p>\n

I’ve been plugging away at both Le libraire<\/i> and Le coeur est un muscle involontaire<\/i>. They’re different enough books that I can keep the characters straight in my head (unlike, say, two Jane Austen novels.) I’m actually enjoying Le libraire<\/i> more than I thought I would, actually, which can only be a good thing, right? The latter is more difficult to slog through because of the slang… although I find the random bits of English amusing. How often do you find random bits of French in English novels? (Okay, so there was some in The DaVinci Code<\/i>, but it was all glossed. I think.)<\/p>\n

I also read Eats, Shoots & Leaves<\/i> this weekend. It’s a great book. Who would have thought that punctuation could be so interesting? Or that a stickler needn’t be alone? Oh, hrm, there’s actually a good quote about the use of emoticons like \ud83d\ude09 in there–we’re demeaning noble punctuation marks by making them into eyes, noses, and mouths! \ud83d\ude2f The author makes a good point when she says that using colons and semi-colons is addicting. I think I actually had that written on my composition for the myth test in grade 10. Heh. :pirate: I think it might have happened to me in Socials, too.<\/p>\n

My hard drive is now making funny sounds. \ud83d\ude2e I think this means that I should format the thing soon, which means I’ll need to back up all 20 GB >_>;; I’ve only been putting this off for five months…<\/p>\n

I’m really looking forward to CORE OF SOUL’s new single, which comes out on Wednesday. I downloaded the PV for it (a streaming version can also be found at their official site<\/a>), and it’s just so cute–they have a little boy introducing them! :kawaii: The video itself is kinda odd, certainly not one of my favourites, but at least it makes sense. In a music video kind of way.<\/p>\n

I’ve given some serious thought to starting work on a COS fansite again. Last time, my host disappeared on me, but with some careful planning this time (and a better host :cry:) that shouldn’t happen. I think it’s time this group had an English fansite, anyway.<\/p>\n

It’s always fun to listen to covers. I download a cover of Train’s “Drops of Jupiter” this weekend, and… well, it’s different, but I like it. Tanya Chua sings it; her English is quite good (not surprising, given that she’s from Singapore) but her rendition is a little breathy and lacks the power of the original. w-inds. (Japan’s answer to, um, the whole boyband phenomenon) did a cover of Clay Aiken’s “Perfect Day,” and that’s just funny. XD It’s about an amicable breakup, while the original is… not about an amicable breakup. :weird:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
