Happy belated BGLHCD. :)

The thing about Degrassi is that it's Canadian. Which is excellent, but the accent can throw you off. When they're in the middle of a dramatic scene and someone goes "You don't know what you're talking aboot" or "I'm soarry", you have to pause and go "oh they're Canadian lol" and then get back into the scene. No, but seriously, Degrassi is a great show and I totally have a crush on Rick. :\

Want to know what the new year will bring? Just pull up iTunes or whatever other music player you use, ask it your question, and put it on shuffle to get an answer.
(My comments in parentheses.)

1. Health in the new year? - Adam Sandler: The Chanukah Song, Part 2 (Okay, I've got nothing.)

2. Academic success in the new year? - Wicked: I'm Not That Girl (Reprise) (Not much, if Glinda's success with Fiyero is anything to go on.)

3. Financial success in the new year? - John Mayer: No Such Thing (Maybe not, but I'll achieve fulfillment without it...or something.)

4. Friendships in the new year? - Nena: 99 Luftballons (None, everyone will be killed by World War III.)

5. Love in the new year? - RENT: Life Support (No day but today to find out! :D)

6. High of the new year? - Barenaked Ladies: Everything Had Changed (Everything changing doesn't exactly strike me as a high.)

7. Low of the new year? - Dar Williams: Are You Out There (My favorite radio station going off the air? No, that awesome station that plays all that kids' music, come back!)

8. Spring prediction? - Yoko Ishida: I Can't Tell You (*runs off to get translated lyrics* I'm still not sure what it's saying, but it seems to be about meeting some kind of dude and feeling happy. So let's go with that.)

9. Summer prediction? - Natasha Bedingfield: Unwritten (I'll get inspired to write something! :D)

10. Fall prediction? - Barenaked Ladies: Peterborough and the Kawarthas (I'll have to leave some kid I've grown attached to. D:)

11. Winter prediction? - My Chemical Romance: Welcome to the Black Parade (My father will take me into the city to see a marching band.)

12. In 2008, always remember - Wicked: Defying Gravity (Standing up to the man! Or...flying.)

How did I not get any TMBG songs after adding like four full CDs. D:

Okay, the scanlations aren't up yet, but from what I can gather Szayel is not dead yet [insert obligatory Monty Python reference]. Instead, Mayuri's taken him back with him...to do research. Now, I don't know about you, but for me, this is INFINITELY preferable to the dead version. Especially if you put quote marks around "research". Yeah, you know it. *waves Szayuri flag* Of course, I've gotta reserve some judgement till I read it in English, but still. *happy* :D

EDIT: The scanlation doesn't say anything about research. D: I'm still choosing to believe that's the case, though. ^_^

I don't know... If he's alright, I doubt he'd still show his face here. But anything that gives me license to mention him without getting you depressed is a good thing. And mad scientists do get Rule 34'd rather easily. Still, it looks like attention has moved to the something-more-than-skeletons in his closet.

And now for something completely different... Since I don't feel like ranting about my week anymore, maybe I should do this meme. Even though most of my music is on the other computer... I can grab my iPod from upstairs!

Of course he wouldn't show his face after being "researched" by Mayuri. That'd be humiliating, that would. He'd change his name and skip the country.

I thought Rule 34 was generally invoked in conjunction with unlikey things? :P

Also: Do it. *eats your head*

The whole Degrassi thing...Who is Rick again? I had/have a crush on Spinner.

[identity profile] vethica.livejournal.com 2008-01-21 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Rick is this hotness (http://degrassiroxmysox9.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/deg_rick_season4_220x130.jpg). (Sorry about the small picture - I seriously could not find a better one.) I know I probably shouldn't like him after what he did, but he said he was getting counseling and...it's all Jay's fault. D:

OMGosh!!!! Eww...no offense. Yeah he did do a horrible thing. Yeah, it was Jay's fault and Jimmy blamed Spin. That's soooo not good. Poor Spin!!! :(

[identity profile] vethica.livejournal.com 2008-01-21 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it was partially Spinner's fault too. But if they and everyone had left Rick alone, none of this would have happened. D:

True, I agree.

Doing this meme now. For real.

And yes, that station needs to stay on the air! (Forgot to mention this last time) Or at least the weekend programs! Come to think of it, I don't actually know what they do on weekdays. But show tunes, a cappella, and kids' music all need to stay!

[identity profile] vethica.livejournal.com 2008-01-27 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
:D And after that, you can do the song meme! :D

Wait...they have a show tunes one? When is this, pray tell?

[identity profile] akasunano-usagi.livejournal.com 2008-01-27 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know what time it starts, but weekend mornings until 2, which is when All A Cappella comes on. :D
