-WARNING-

The National Blather Service has issued a Severe CitrusStorm Warning for the following area(s):
The world.

Expect torrential downpours of tropical insanity, especially in the morning and evening hours.

Japanese Television!

All better for now.

To celebrate my better mood, enjoy this clip of what can usually always put a smile on my face: Japanese game shows!

Dreams...?

I'm stuck in a tiny bout of depression that is dream-related. On that note, I wanted to open a bit of a public poll for the wonderful people here.

Do you think it's better:

--Option 1--
To have a really nice dream, but wake up knowing that it'll never happen? (Meaning you'll carry the memory of the dream with a reminder that it's something you'd love, but it's pretty impossible/unobtainable in the foreseeable future)

or

--Option 2--
To have a sinister nightmare, but wake up knowing that it'll never happen? (Meaning you'll remember the dream, but you'll have the consolation of acknowledging its implausibility and is a reminder of how your life isn't and will never be)

Let me know what you think.

One more month...

August 1st. I now have only one month left until I turn 20.

Sometimes, I'm surprised that I've survived this long. But then I remember that I haven't ever done anything truly dangerous, so I'm fine on that regard. XP

One of the most fun things ever

You know what's not fun?

Annoying telemarketers/survey takers that call your house when you're trying to relax.

You know what IS fun?

Answering annoying telemarketers/survey takers that call your house when you're trying to relax... in Japanese!

The following is a transcript of a real conversation that I had with a survey taker. Your mileage may vary.

*phone rings, I answer*

Me: Moshi moshi, Tanaka desu. [Hello, this is Tanaka.]

Guy: ...Hello?

Me: Hai! [Yes!]

Guy: Hello sir, would you like to participate in a survey today?

Me: Eh, sumimasen... Eigo wo hanashimasen. [Uh, I'm sorry... I don't speak English.]

Guy: ...So would you like to take the survey?

Me: Iie, kekko desu. [No, I'm fine.]

Guy: What year were you born, sir?

Me: Etto... anata wa kaizoku desu ka? [Um... are you a pirate?]

Guy: ...Ok, I'll just call back later.

Me: Arigatou! [Thanks!]

*guy hangs up, my family bursts out laughing*

My promo's going through!

So I recently submitted a promo to the local radio station that I do charity vocal work for. My supervisor (I guess you could call him that) said that he loved it and that I get to go to the studio to re-record it using the good mics they have there so they can put it on the air!

Somebody give me a hand to slap! =D
