So, I have a lot to cram in here, so I'll be as brief as possible about all of it:
First: I have an x-mas gift for you Lexa, but I'm afraid the postal service might steal it like last time.
Second: I've come to really like kinetic typography. This is the video that made me like it (and enjoy language so much more):
and I took a stab at it:
Third: I got some awesome recording stuff. More on that in another post.
Fourth: this is twofold from something I stumbleupon-ed. The first is from Men's Health things guys want girls to know: Don't play hard to get, if you like us let us know. Stemming from this is the second thing: Girls say that if a guy thinks she's worth it, we'll go after her. I cheked with a friend of mine named Mike, and he agrees that this logic is flawed because a) we don't want to appear as stalkers, and b) how are we supposed to "just know" if a girl is playing hard-to-get or legitimately rebuffing you? Just a thought. Oh, and another thing (guess that makes it threefold): it would be so much easier if after you knew you had no shot at a girl you stopped liking her (just for clarity, I feel urged to say I am speaking in general terms here, not necessarily of myself). That way you don't go insane. Well, that's all for now. See you soon!
