Home, Sweet Home indeed

I rarely like remixes and covers. Recently, however, one of my favorite Japanese bands, Home Made Kazoku, re-did one of their most famous songs. Here's the original:

Give that a good listen. Let it sink in. Love it. Now listen to their re-born version, and prepare to have your mind BLOWN:

-___-

Ever have one of those moments where the cold just runs up and down your spine like children on an escalator and you keep telling yourself to stop thinking about why you feel sick to your stomach but it just won't listen?

Those are the worst. I wish I wasn't having one of those hours...



On the upside, I might actually get some sleep tonight. I looked at my face in the mirror today and I saw such a tired girl glancing heavy-lidded glances at me in return. I shook my head at her and she shook hers back. "You look like you haven't slept for a week, dear."

"I'd probably feel better if I actually hadn't."

What a shame.

Well.

I decided to change my major. Music therapy is not what I thought it was going to be. I expected a lot more psychology than music, and it turned out it was a lot of music and virtually no psychology. I'm not letting my GPA suffer from music theory. I'm going to do something that I love and that interests me, even if I "can't do anything with an undergrad in psychology," as my music therapy advisor said. My psych advisor is actually the professor I had for PSYC 121, Intro to Psych. She's awesome and really helpful. Yay!

ART! And a funny thing.

Hey there, all! One of my favorite artists on DeviantART has just opened up her own website, and it's a fantastic place. Come check it out!

Also, Ernest Hemingway looks a little bit too much like Sean Connery to me.

UGHHHHHHHH,

What is thissss? Ugh. I'm pretty unhappy with my music-ness. I like Music Therapy alright, but music theory and the shit that comes with it I do NOT like. It doesn't make any sense, and I'm never going to use it. I thought I was going to come to college and take classes I liked and enjoyed. It just feels like high school again.
I added a Psychology major. Next semester we'll see how it goes, but I have a feeling that I'll end up just being a Psych major because being a double means I have to be here for 4.5-5 years. (Most likely 5). If I switch to just Psychology sometime during the fall semester or in between fall and spring, it seems I can still get out of here in 4. I'll have to take 15 credit hours for the rest of the time, but that's fine. It's high for a "regular" (is that how I phrase that?) major, but I think I can deal. Haha. And my effing MT adviser is trying to convince me to tailor my Psych specialization to something that would help me out in music therapy, like cognitive or developmental. I'm doing clinical social work, dammit. Maybe clinical psychology, I haven't really decided yet. Gah. Plus, my Psych advisor is AMAZING. I had her for Intro last semester, and I love her! She's great. Plus, she lives on campus. Haha.

I am SO glad I left before this dumbass came in.

The Pope is an absolute idiot, and a disgrace to the previous Pope.
Reason one:

Reason two:

And the most recent, reason three:

This list will most likely be continuing, so check back every few weeks.

No more procrastinating!!!

Okay. So...yeah. I'm basically in the process of procrastinating right now but I've gotten a lot of work done! ^_^
I've been looking through the books I got from the library, and I've figured out that some of them aren't very helpful : / ...but OH WELL. I need at least 5 book sources, and I've used 4 books so far, so I'm almost there! ^_^

So yeah...I have almost 3 pages ^_^ And I'm nowhere near done. YAY...


But, as I've been extensively researching this topic, I have come to the conclusion that the American government is run by idiots.
There have been SO MANY STUDIES AND SO MUCH PROOF that marijuana is a really effective and helpful medicine...YET NO ONE THAT CAN DO ANYTHING REALLY CARES. They like marijuana where it is...classified as a Schedule 1 drug, aka a drug with NO MEDICINAL VALUE WHATSOEVER.

BULLSHIT.

Like...marijuana could honestly save lives. ...REALLY.


Why do people have to be so ignorant and stupid?



Anywho...rant over :P BACK TO PAPER
