Just a little note.
Anyone here ever heard of the band Sigur Ros?
You should.
They are an Icelandic folk band, who play many instrumentals. They are along the same vein as The Polyphonic Spree and The Arcade Fire. If you like calming music that takes you back to a simpler time in one of the most beautiful countries in this big bad world, give them a listen.

Denizens Deceased, Doctor Defends Domicile
Alliteration Power!
I are bored. And shirking the duty of homework.
I'm going to pose a little quandry to everyone. If you make plans with a friend to do something, it could be anything. My example is plans to tutor someone and then crash at their house after. But, your parents also make plans for you, that they tell you nothing of. Neither party tells the other until the 11th hour. Who is at fault?
I've just been told that instead of staying over at my friend Stephan's house tomorrow, I am to return to mine own home because, SURPRISE, my stepfather wants my help doing work on HIS property the next morning. No, Can you help me or Do you have plans. No, that would be polite. Instead, I get "You need to be at the house for 8 am on Saturday, because we need to clean up the property." Never mind that he was stupid enough to rent the fucking house to the shitty tenants that never paid and left their shit all over the place. No no. I Need to help. Never mind that I'm apparently an adult now and can make my own plans, no. I am EIGHT in the eyes of my parents, not eighteen. I have been viewed as a child my entire life, and I don't see that stopping. So I'm almost ready to quit. I'm THIS close to just walking out. Packing up my stuff and leaving.
Let's try and think of better topics.
We finally played D&D again last night after a three week hiatus. It was entertaining. As always. Kev and I got most of the technical prep work we needed done for the Pathfinder game as well.
I'm hungry.
I have a migraine.
Uhhh...
I'm starting to learn Flute? I suppose that's interesting.
Well I suppose I should be off, I need to do a few things for Media Studies, a few things for Religion...
And I'd really like to watch another episode of Doctor Who. I'm THIS close to finishing it, I just haven't had the time. I'm also getting all of the specials that have been released since the series ended, so I can be fully prepared for the next edition.
(Starting March 13th!)
We scurry through the maze to find out the reward is nothing.

The Neccessity of Games
Well I have had a busy weekend.
The rehearsathon was...interesting.
Learning 5 new songs in one night (Note, we learned half of these songs...and gave upon many of them. Don't expect wonders from us in Nashville) is an accomplishment. I wish we had actually done it. But the Tenor Saxophone section worked hard, I'm very proud of them. We won't let everyone else down.
I refuse to comment on the choir. Maybe I'm just too professional.
And HEY!, My mom and stepdad are married now. It was a nice short ceremony, at the Discovery Center on the Bay. There were lots of people that I hadn't seen for many years, and it was nice to catchup.
There's not much more to say on that.
And ok.
Seriously.
Am I the only male that couldn't give two shits about the Superbowl?
I just don't care. It's boring.
Whatever.
I'm heading out to Disney World tomorrow night, so if you have anything you need to tell me, get it done tomorrow!
Hanging on the wall, watching Life pass me by...

New Semester
While everyone else is talking about exams being over, I'm going to strive to be different.
Next semester , I have the easiest semester I've ad since grade 10 second semester. Not much can beat that year, grade 10 music, grade 10 guitar, grade 10 science and grade 10 keyboarding. I think my average was 93? Anyway.
I have Gr11 Music, Gr10 Construction, Gr11 Media Studies and Gr11 religion.
I win at school.
Speaking of Music, I still haven't learnt these songs my mom wants me to. I should probably get on that. I mean, their wedding is next saturday. The day AFTER the rehearse-a-thon. Greeeeeeeaaaaaaaaatttttttttt. I'mma be SO tired.
On a lighter note....
Nothing!
Because I can't think of anything at the moment.
And I'm a bit loath to talk about Pathfinder some more, or Doctor Who (Even though Natasha watches and I finally have someone else to talk to about The Doctor and his Tardis. Which will be useful when the next series starts.) since I get the feeling that the three people reading this blog have heard enough.
I mean. If you don't PLAY roleplaying games, you don't want to hear about them non-stop. Am I right?
Maybe I should start discussing other nerdy things?
Hmm....
Well My cousin and I finished watching the fifth season of Lost yesterday. That season finale.....Screw You JJ Abrams. Seriously. I'm just glad that I watched this with only a few days to go until the final season. If I had had to wait months...I may have shot myself. In the foot. I'm not suicidal. But that was just intense.
That reminds me of a joke.
Ask me to tell it to you some time.
Here's a question, is it really babysitting if you're not looking after a baby?
I just hope my brother doesn't poop his pants again. Because I am NOT cleaning that.
