Let's see I'll use a few bullets to post some quick updates on what's been going on with me lately.

An old friend contacted me and it sort of surprised me because I haven't heard from him in a while. It will be nice catching up with him, and seeing what he's been up to these days.

I've been listening to lots of extreme metal lately, and I'm not sure why. I pity the fools in middle school I used to deal with who used to give me shit because the bands I listened to weren't "heavy enough", because that's defiantly not the problem now. Somehow really extreme metal actually calms me down, and doesn't make me angry at all. I can relate a lot to the lyrical content I think. I also listen to lots of extremely mellow genres like post-rock, dream-pop, neo-classical, downtempo, and ambient music from time to time so I figure I have a nice balance overall.

I finally ordered "Unknown Pleasures" by Joy Division on 180 gram vinyl yesterday. My friend was supposed to buy it for me for my b-day but she either forgot, or just didn't do it. I ended up just getting myself, and I'm sure she'll be sort of annoyed but honestly idk. I need to hear this album on vinyl.

I had an amusing convo with a coworker about names, and if they were able to find their names on coke bottles. Mine is really easy to find since it's such a common name, but you'd be surprised what names you find I guess. I was also surprised that a coworker came to my defense today. That felt really nice. :)

Reading about the whole Palestine/Israel conflict makes me really sad. It just seems like the situation is really terrible at this point. Also what happened in the Ukraine with the other Malaysian Air flight is just fucking terrible. Why must people be so intolerant of each other? Ugh...

I realized my little sound system I have my turntable hooked up to can play my iPod as well. This is awesome because all I have to do is plug it in, and it plays through my awesome speakers. I'm sure my parents aren't happy about that though...lol.

Studio Ghibli has decided to stop making animated films. I actually heard them mention this a while back but it seems like they're following through with it. It is very sad indeed, because I loved a lot of their films. ;___;

I like the song, but the video for this song is really disturbing. A lot of the explanations I heard trying to explain the plot seem pretty accurate for the most part. The abusive/stalker boyfriend concepts these days in K-pop are really annoying though. I will say those VIXX boys are always doing creepy concepts...lol.
