"웃어봐 하하하 당신을 더욱 사랑할꺼야"

Music: Napoleon Dynamite - 웃어 (Laugh)
Mood: concerned

(Stolen from Singaporean singer-songwriter JJ Lin's blog. That's a giant watch in the center.)

There's some stuff going on that has me worried. Not seriously worried, but still..worried. Mostly for other people.

Anyway.

My camera appears to have died for the last time, so I've bitten the bullet and told the parental units. I might get a new one for Christmas.. We'll see. In the meantime, I'll have to make do with either (a) scouring the internet for cool pictures, (b) stealing stuff off of Facebook, or (c) using my built-in laptop camera. (Hence today's picture, stolen from JJ Lin, one of my favourite artists. He's also a good photographer.)

Since we're on the subject of JJ Lin, I'm going to go on a mild fangirl tangent. Bear with me.

OMG, I ADORE HIM. Not in the "I want to marry him and bear his children" sort of way, but in the "I want to be his best friend and hang out with him" sort of way. He's talented, he seems really funny and sweet, and he has adorable dimples. Plus, I've been totally rocking out to his music this past week while walking to and from campus. It's been a good time.

ALSO! He totally talked to me. :D Well, tweeted to me. Yes, to me! AHAHAHA, fangirl moment~ I wrote a tweet wondering why I hadn't noticed his last album coming out last year (tagged it @JJ_Lin, which is his Twitter) and ended up blaming it on all of the drama here that happened around then. Twenty minutes later, he tweets me back asking where I am. :DDDDDDDD I told him I was in Illinois, and that I was actually referring to friend-drama. He..hasn't tweeted me back. :( But I know he's alive. He's supposedly going to analyze my personality (and the personality of every other fan that tweeted him back about his question) based on my three favourite animals and my reasons. I'm excited. :DDDD

..shut up. >.>

Anyway.

I have an anthropology exam tomorrow morning. I never feel very good when going into Springwood's exams, so I'm a little worried, but I honestly can't think of anything he could put on it that would surprise me. The stuff we're talking about right now is pretty straightforward (whether "race" can be determined by genetics--surprise surprise, it can't), so it shouldn't be too difficult. Still. Stuff like this is hard to study for.

And then after Springwood's exam, I have to hurry back here so I can work on my paper for Lutze. I have an outline for each of the three possible exam questions he gave us, and now I just need to (a) pick one, (b) incorporate the stuff we talked about in class today, and (c) write the damn thing. It's due on Wednesday.. I'm actually feeling pretty good about it.


..and completely off-topic, but I fucking love this song.



웃어봐 하하하 세상 모두가 웃게 될거야

누군가 우릴 뭐라한대도
Even if someone says something about us

Even if someone leaves us
세상이 그댈 속일지라도
Even if the world deceives us
