(Sittin' On)

To me, very few pop songs nowadays have soul. You know what music has soul? Soul music has soul. For me, the epitome of soul is the King of Soul himself, Otis Redding. Here's his last single, "(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay," which was the first posthumous single to reach at #1 in the U.S.

The Next Month

I have finals next week, and after that I'll be at my parents' until June, and they don't have an Internet connection :P

But it's not like I won't be able to write any posts at all. Certainly, however, I will not be able to post as often, and I apologize in advance for that. Why don't you suggest something for me to write about during what should be the boring but restful period of time after my finals?

Today, I'm Thankful For Freezers

Yeah, yeah. I know. It's past midnight already, so it's not really a post about "today" anymore. Like I care.
Anyhoo, freezers are nice. I had salmon. Wild salmon caught in the northern Atlantic (I think). And I was able to have it today, though I had bought it quite a while ago, because of my freezer. Yep. And also, frozen dumplings > frozen pizza.

One Wish: Let's All Calm Down, Now

So...this whole bin Laden thing that's going on right now...and how he's supposed to be dead now...It all kind of makes my head hurt to think about everything that's tied to that, and I'm still trying to sort it all out as I write this. I guess the best thing for me to do now is to write this all down and hope it makes sense.

Today, I'm Thankful For Right Stuf

Right Stuf is where I get most of my DVDs and manga. They have the best prices on average of any large online retailer, they have great customer service, and they always have a sale of some sort going on. Today, I received some Aria bookmarks as a free gift. I was very pleased and excited when I found them alongside the manga I had ordered.
