Ah, Friday at last!
Nov. 30th, 2007 09:16 pmAWESOME day today for various reasons--my middle schoolers successfully sang in FRENCH!! VICTORY!! \o/
I also got a letter from my private loan company--since I'm doing automatic payments, I get an interest rate cut. We're talking, like, a fraction of a percent. It's not a lot...but that will make a difference over the long run. I got a .25% interest rate deduction from my federal loan company for doing automatic payments, and it knocked my payments down by thirty bucks. And with that company I think I get another fairly substantial interest rate cut if I make either thirty-six or forty-eight payments on time.
[/boring money talk that still made me happy]
Tonight people have been sending me music! My sister sent me this amazing recording of a string quartet playing Evanescence's "My Immortal." I might have to take that in for my middle schoolers to prove that, "Wow! Classical-style music CAN be fun and interesting." Along with that Ten Tenors DVD...that opera medley is hilarious :D And then
aishuu and
ickaimp are spoiling me with funny music!
...seriously, I'm going to be singing "Dead Again" for weeks. And I'm a total nerd because I got a TON of those video game references. Except I'm trying to find the Legend of Zelda reference. There has GOT to be a Zelda reference... *is playing Phantom Hourglass and thus has LoZ on the brain*
ETA: Random thought--could each individual Legend of Zelda game count as a fandom on
100fandomhell? Different timelines and all-- *shot*
Ganked from various people...

Number of comments: Posted: 10, 955 - Received: 14,405
Biggest pet peeve about LJ: Either the addictiveness of it or the stupidity of the people who run it [/soapbox]
Do you feel close to most of the people on your friends list: Yes. There are a few of them I actually trust more than some people I know in real life.
How many journals on LiveJournal do you have: At present, three. This is my main one, and then I have my fic journal (
candyfics), and an RP journal that I really should just close. I sort of want to re-app with a character I think I can actually do something with xD
Communities I currently own/maintain: I'm a memories mod on
30_nights and
30_cracks, and I'm a mod on
15_flames, but I feel bad because I don't really do much v_v
