I switched to FM radio for the first time in ages, and listened for a while. I felt pretty out of touch, especially when they'd give the name of a song that had just played. It's kind of a "oohhhhh, so that's who/what everyone has been talking about." I remember the same thing happening at last year's formal, just continuous facepalm for me. Hmmm, I'm pretty sure I have only listened to like, 5 of Lady Gaga's songs in total [EDIT: Apparently Lady Gaga's only released 7 songs in total. Let's go with the one's I can name off the top of my head - Just Dance, Pokerface, Bad Romance, annddd. ummmm. Yeah, so that brings it down to 3]. That's how out of touch I am with mainstream. I'm considering getting back into the RnB scene, but still a bit hesitant. =/
It's not just music. Movies, too. I don't download/watch movies at all these days, nor do I actually go to the cinema often. Apart from Wednesday (The Hurt Locker), I think the last time I went to the movies was.....months ago? Well it was to watch Up, and I don't remember how long ago that was. Oh, I still haven't watched Avatar. Yeah, it's that "bad". Although these holidays should change things, I plan on going out a lot more. :D
So it's been I think, what, 2 weeks now without my computer? It is just sitting there open, with the (now useless) motherboard collecting dust. I should take it apart, and I should definitely clean out the fans at some point (it's actually kind of disgusting if you look at it long enough), but hey, that can all be done as soon as I get a new motherboard. I think I might be doing that...tomorrow? Might want to know what model I'm getting before I actually walk into the store, though.
On another note, I'm also looking for an MP3 player that isn't an iPod. Why? I have things against Apple in general, and I think that anything apart from the iPod Touch is overpriced. I admit it's been difficult to find something that beats and iPod in price:functionality BUT I'm getting there. I'm looking for something with expandable memory, just so it's easier to transfer music/increase capacity whenever I want. Suggestions, anyone?
Played tennis with Owen today, it was fun. Started raining at some points. Not much else to say. Notetoself: Get better tennis balls.
Oh also, interesting article:
"Man Arrested at LHC; Claims he is from the future"
FTA:
-"Mr Cole was attempting to disrupt by stopping supplies of Mountain Dew to the experiment's vending machines."
- ""Countries do no exist where I am from. The discovery of the Higgs Boson led to limitless power, elimination of poverty and Kit-Kats for everyone. It is a communist chocolate hellhole and I'm here to stop it ever happening."
Pretty funny article (yes, I know it is an April Fools joke). And just a thought, if he DID manage to travel back in time, that must mean that his mission as in vain, because the fact that he NEEDS to complete this mission means that the future will exist anyway. Ok, now that I read that it doesn't make much sense, but you know what I'm trying to say.
