Barely thawed

L**** is cold, y'all. The interview went well, I think, and now I'm waiting to hear. I really, really liked the library. Here were my two favorite questions:"So, hypothetically, if you were supervising two library pages who were both teenage girls and who kind of didn't get along, how would you handle that?""I have to ask--is your hair naturally curl...

Mood = Elated.

Why am I elated? Read thy below.[quote = Richard from Decknique]I got in touch with one of the animators on the Cingular Blackjack commercial, Kiel Figgins. It turns out a video from Decknique was used as reference! (More details below) Quote: Originally Posted by Kiel Figgins Yeah, I had a hand (no pun intended) in that TV spot. I animated the section shown on my site... I also supervised my team of animators who did the tricks that followed. The first part of the spot was done in-house at Shilo Designs. They did use two reference videos, and one really short clip. They took the reference videos, spliced them together into the order of the moves you see in the video. Then they used that final reference video to develop the 3D animation.None...

Blind Date Scoop

Okay, sorry to the people who feel like I'm withholding vast amounts of information from them on the blind date front. The short version is that I had a really nice time--it was one of the better dates I've been on and definitely the best blind date.Of course, to give that some perspective, let me tell you what my blind dates are usually like. This one time a girl who shall remain nameless (except that her name is *tanclax) set me up with a friend of hers after raving all about how great he is.First off, she lied to each of us to make the age difference seem smaller. I was 21, he was 28 or something.He picked me up and said he was feeling like...

Count Filth is amusing everyone.

Was half-grinning at myself when I read this interview dialog, which involves, of course, my idol, Count Filth. Here's it! If you could be drowned in anything, what would it be?Naked female flesh. Or booze. Or Lovecraftian tentacles. Have you had any near-death experiences?Once on mushrooms. I transcended the universe, becoming one with God until a friend's persistent nagging brought me back from beyond the veils of death and into his rather manky flat in Colchester. Definitely a mushroomBut is it magic? What are your favourite websites?Secretary porn and weird and wonderful sports cars. If you could...

Thanksgiving Weekend Highlights

Didn't have to do any of the Thanksgiving cookingCheeseball was a rousing success among the discerning, even if b-in-law said it looked white trash4 slices of pumpkin pieSlept in rather than waiting in line overnight at Best Buy with the crazy peopleUnder-inflated tires mercifully did not explode during the 4 hours of driving timeAsked the doctor about my dodgy mole--turns out it's a wartYay for having warts rather than cancer!Went on pretty much the best blind date I've ever hadAnd now I'm driving to L**** on Wednesday for my job interview but they're predicting this huge snowstorm for Monday - Wednesday. So let's hope I don't get caught in the mercy of both the elements and the Utah drivers who respect neither the elements or my desire to keep living. And yes, I am now one who firmly hates...

The holiday where you don't have to buy people stuff

We're going up to Logan in the morning for Thanksgiving with the people who are pretty much our second family. I haven't seen them in awhile so I'm looking forward to it. And since the dad is a doctor I'm hoping he'll take a look at the dodgy mole on my arm. Can't decide if it's better to show it to people before or after they've eaten. I guess I could save it for any conversational lulls during dinner.Jenny made her famous cheesecake and the stupid oven messed it up. It'll still taste wonderful, though. I'm making my cheeseball, which is the thing I always fall back on when I need to bring a contribution. And since I've had friends ask for...

Flourish!

I can't even remember when exactly I have flourished for more than an hour straight. Been too long. Due to incessant work and school, the first draining away all my time away. Yesternight saw the crazy 8 hour long flourishing session by myself, spanning from 8pm to 3am. Plugged to my headphones with a good source of metal songs, cards in my hands, and flourish away. Yay. It feels good.Other things, I loathe Singapore's censorship so bad. 3 days into the release date of Völkerball DVD, and not one copy is out on the shelves yet. And visiting Herzeleid.net makes me feel even more agonized, seeing people from other countries already have their Limited Edition (which costs US$100).Still on the censorship, I look at the movies that are opening soon. 80% of them are either M-18 (50 or so days to...

Not to be a mommy blogger or anything

It has been fun living with the kiddies for the past couple of weeks. It's especially fun to watch Savvy try to manipulate everyone around her. She has decided that pretty much everything belongs to her. "THAT'S MINES!!" is her most-used expression, I think. Unless you count the way that she'll keep repeating a demand over and over again, especially when we're in the car.I want jelly beans, Momma.I want jelly beans, Momma.Hey, I want jelly beans, Momma.Momma I want jelly beans.Because the only reason we haven't given in yet is that we just couldn't hear her properly.My absolute favorite, though, is her way of asking for things.Savvy: I wan' mumble mumble jeybeans mumble mumble Eat Thins mumbleMe: (trying to translate) You want me to feed you jelly-beans and ice cream while you push baby Ethan...

Sooo much chocolate

I went to that Chocolate Show over the weekend with my Jenny, Hannah, and HT. They are good people to spend an evening with. Also HT told me that my hair inspired her to get a perm (which looks really nice on her, btw.) I was kind of floored, though, because I have never, ever, in my life, ever, been One Whose Appearance Inspires Emulation. Ever. I am glad that you were able to witness this day with me.We got off to a late start because of all the BYU football game traffic and then the really freaky on/off ramps when you're trying to get on I-15 coming from the west but the on-ramp is all curvy so you can't go more than 25 mph around the curve...

The wait is almost over! The hype is reaching its peak! My body is surged with adrenaline! My wallet is ready to take the blow of it! My hands are trembling, for they shall be holding the Ultimate Rammstein DVD to date by 12 noon tomorrow!VOELKERBALL TOMORROW!Gah!!! As I shout out my battlecry, my mind is flooded with millions of thoughts, ranging from "I must fucking blast this hell of a DVD once I reach home!" to "I will be shit broke after getting it! Oh holy!" But I tell myself firmly, "No time for fickle-mindedness, my friend! Voelkerball is paramount!" Yes, I listened to myself.From popping the Rosenrot Bonus DVD into my player a little more than a year ago, amazed at the splendour of a Rammstein Live show, I was informed by the forums that that Rosenrot DVD is just a mere sneak preview...

And I saw that it was good

Last week AA and I met up for lunch at Cafe Rio, where I got reacquainted with the marvelous thing that is the Cafe Rio salad. Normally I get mine with chicken but they've bumped up the prices since I was there last. When I got done sputtering and talking about how back in my day prices were much more reasonable and young whippersnappers respected their elders, I ordered one without meat. Of course I still couldn't finish it. The next day Jenny and I split the leftovers and added more lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese. So I got three meals out of the thing. Darn straight. Here is me being happy with my salad. Don't let the tired, vacant look and...

Two Good Newses

Note: The do not think the title reads "Two Good Newsies," because there is no such thing as that, Christian Bale notwithstanding. I like to pretend that movie never happened, and that I never saw him performing NKOTB dance moves like some kind of Mouseketeer. Everyone, please indulge me in this.Good news #1: Remember that job in L***n? They just called and asked me to come in for an interview. So I'm excited to actually have one of those things. It's not until after Thanksgiving, but I'll let y'all know when to start sending prayers, good vibes, and voodoo chants my way!Good news #2: The Utah Chocolate Show. Did anyone else know about this thing? I'm going Saturday and I cannot even wait. You just wander around and eat chocolate the whole time! I'm going to ignore the part where it will...

Oh dear

Normally this is the kind of thing I would leave to the Go Fug Yourself girls, since they do this for a living and are brilliant at it. But I just could not leave this one alone, and so far they haven't said anything about it. Once they do, you can forget whatever I've said.First off, please let me say that I admire Emma Thompson so, SO very much. I think she is gorgeous and talented and smart. She started her own comedy troupe. She dated Hugh Laurie in college. She writes and acts and gets Academy Awards for both those things. She wrote the screenplay for Sense and Sensibility and got the lead role and got all her friends to be in it. And then she married hottie Greg Wise who played Willoughby. Take that, Kenneth I'm-So-Great Branagh! So, yes. Nothing but admiration.The only thing that's...

The saddest story ever

So when I was 10 I saw Beauty & the Beast and fell completely in love with it. It gave me hope that girls who spend all their time reading will still be able to get boyfriends--handsome, rich, furry boyfriends. And for the record, I think the Beast is way better looking than the Prince. The Prince looks like a girl.When the VHS came out I rode my bike to the BX and bought it, spending $15 of my hard-earned babysitting money.When the new Special Edition was released at IMAX theatres Amyjane and I went to see it. Loved loved loved.When the new Platinum Special Edition 2-disc set was released on DVD Amyjane and I both pre-ordered our copies...

I'm in an elephant graveyard

Remember how a couple of weeks ago I talked about singles wards? Well now there's an entirely new thing to report, namely my new singles ward, about which I'm not sure what to think or feel.Jenny & Ed's bishop turned up last week to say Hi and I asked him about the singles wards. He said there's a BYU ward for for the students & younger kiddies and a really big stake singles ward that seems to be populated by the 25+ crowd--a couple hundred of them.This, to me, was good news. He said this ward must be good, because it had people driving down from SLC to be in it, which confused me a little bit. Usually it's only the really tiny wards who are so desperate for members that they'll fudge on the boundaries.So on Sunday I got all dolled up in my cute brown Wal-Mart skirt and my light-pink...

Loving the new car

It is so so very nice. I never thought I would end up with a car this nice--at least not right now while I'm all unemployed an' junk. I was looking for a cheapo college car, and the nicest I was willing to go was a Honda Civic. So I went to test-drive one and the guy said they had an Accord that was actually the same price. I got a deal.Full disclosure: I did not make full use of the bargaining chip that is "paying with cash." I should have tried to get them to knock some off the price that way. But I turn into such a girl when it comes to car things and I'm not assertive at all. Next time I will be prepared. I did make the guy wash it though, so that's a small victory.I feel like such a grown-up in this thing. It even has a CD player! I have never owned a car with a CD player before, because...

I'm really quite irritated by The Man right now

I've decided that it's not good to be unemployed. AND it's not fair.First I tried to apply for an Delta Skymiles American Express credit card. I had one before but cancelled it last year because I didn't want to pay the yearly fee when I wasn't going to be able to use it in Ye Olde Englande. But when I called up to get a new one, the lady on the other line had a huge problem with the fact that I don't have any employer info. I told her that I have savings and student loan money, which I'm living on now while I look for a job. And I would be happy to provide documentation of my sources of income. That wasn't good enough. Unless I have someone...

I miss Fantasma

Yes. I miss Fantasma. Alot.I hate TrustedHub. It's an obvious sweatshop. Enough said.Thanks to work, I totally forgot that Norwegian guitar god, Yngwie Malmsteen is in Singapore for a one night only gig today! I feel very bad, being such a self-proclaimed professional metalhead of me. Ugh. Hate work. Hate work.Blah. It's wake, repeat, tired, sleep again. I hate life. With holiday Lectolocausts and CCAnal propagation programmes coming up, I lament at myself, "When exactly can I go into my vampire timezone and hermitage?" I need those 2, especially when life is so full of nonsense nowadays. And, I have planned to do self-education or simply put it, Autodidiact, on ancient civilisations, more philosophy and to read Dune stuff over again.I should see money as something less significant.

Dibs!

Living with Jenny has introduced a complication that neither of us were prepared for. Suddenly we are both wanting to blog about the same things. So we've worked out a very good system, which is called whoever yells "DIBS!!" fast enough gets to blog about it.I called dibs on the girl ahead of us in the Wammart checkout line last night. She was buying the following:fat-free yogurts with sprinkles2 frozen South Beach Diet meals1 bag of M&Ms1 huge box of frozen fish sticksExplain that to me. And don't say that she's buying them for someone else because that's too reasonable. As I mocked her in my head I looked at my own purchases and wondered...

China Black Metal.

Curious me saw some sample mp3 files of a China Depressive Misanthropic Black Metal band, called 原罪。And, I tell you, it blown me off completely.One of them, from their Demo CD, called, 秋月,starts off with wayang singing and er-hu at the background, then this demented voice full of hatred comes ripping open your heart, with the heavy droning guitars and drums to follow suit. In total, 7 minutes of pure misanthropic madness. It's almost like Aborton Void, but better.If this CD ever reaches Singapore's shores, I'm getting it. Metalheads reading this, go check out this brilliant new band from China! Chinese pri...

That's it

It was -1 degrees Fahrenheit this morning on the way to church. That's -18.3 degrees Celsius for all you Brits and other non-Fahrenheit folk.Too cold for me. I'm out. I'm flying America West tonight and will get to UT tomorrow, where my sister assures me that it's a balmy 50 degrees. Also the Preciouses are there. And my new bed, which I will blog more about later.Let's hope I can sleep on this flight. One year I was asleep on the Anchorage red-eye and the lady next to me spilled her Diet Coke on my lap. Another year a different lady spilled her rum on my brand-new black leather boots from Topshop. I do not have good luck with these thin...

Die Große Stille

With no idea of what will be confronting me, I sat down at my seat at the National Museum's Gallery Theatre and embraced myself with the thought that I am about to sit through a nearly 3 hour long film. With no dialogue or background music. At all.Darkness, grainy imagery, red candles flickering are things that greeted my curious, unknowing eyes. After getting myself comfortable in my seat, I placed more focus on the film. With the monks shifting their feets around the chapel in darkness for another good 5 minutes, my ears are taking notice of the silence of the film. Shifty I am, with eyes darting around glancing at who's seating near me and much thoughts in my mind, I have yet to be subdued by the silence. Yet to learn the appreciate the silence. Yet to integrate into the silence.More imagery...

Book Sale Eve

Tomorrow will be the culmination of all the work I've been doing at my notjob: The Book Sale. If I have to take away only one lesson learned from all of this it is that I should never again waste my time inscribing witty and heart-felt messages into books that I give as gifts. I now know what you people do with them. So many of the books that we're selling have inscriptions from loved ones, spouses, grandparents, children, and friends written in the front. And every time I see one I feel bad for the giver who took the time to write it when their pieces of crap friends and relatives are just going to get rid of the book anyway. I mean seriously, who even raised these people?Today I got to boss around a bunch of teenaged cadets. They call me "ma'am" and "ma'am yes ma'am." It was kind of awesome....

Mmmm . . . donuts . . .

Mom made the donuts last night and they were fabulous. I ate about 14 of them and only stopped when I began to feel shooting pains in my left arm. I was on trick-or-treat duty and I even gave candy to the big kids despite the ice-water running through my veins. There were some really cute li'l kids, including one little boy dressed as a duck. He was new to trick-or-treating and kept trying to come into the house, thinking that was how the whole doorbell-door-open thing works.Here's a pic of me and Mom in our Halloween finery.And here is my Winter Wonderland and the reason why I have Christmas carols running through my head 78% of the time.
