Went to the dentist on Monday, then the orthodontist on Tuesday. What a wonderful way to start off your week. It was alright though, the dentist was relatively painless, which is rare, for me at least. Kinda lame though, my teeth are so sore from my braces being tightened that it hurts even to bite into noodles. Imagine that. While at the orthodontist, the assistant was asking me about school and whatnot, which eventually turned into a discussion on Japanese (being a Japanese major and all). Finally she asked me to say something in Japanese for everyone there (about 6 people; all in on the conversation apparently). Now while I don't mind saying stuff in Japanese for people, they always ask me to say something but never say exactly what they want to hear. I can't ever think of anything to say when someone asks that. I usually just ask what they want me to say, which they always reply anything. What am I supposed to say? "I eat babies" or something? At least they didn't ask if I liked anime...
I read an interesting article which highlights several points I've been saying all along in regard to the RIAA's claim that downloading mp3s hurts the music industry. I don't know why I get all worked up whenver I hear about the RIAA. I guess it's because I feel like I am personally being targeted. For once I am being directly affected by silly politics. I dunno. What do you think?
Upon browsing around Slashdot, I came across an interesting article from Wired about the spam business. I always wondered if people actually buy products advertised in spam. And now that I know the answer, I find it quite sad that people really are that stupid. Yet at the same time, I also find it unsurprising. Maybe I should give it a shot. ;)
Is the video for "Move Your Feet" by Junior Senior not the best music video ever made? I think from now on all music videos should be pixellated. And no, Legos don't count. Well, I guess they can if they could get them at high enough resolution, unlike a certain Lego music video, but I don't see that happening.
Did I mention that I love the Japanese?
