Pig of dreams.

song of the moment

Right now, I'm finishing up reading for my exam. And I can't get enough of this song.

Jesca Hoop - Seed Of Wonder

I think she sounds a bit like Fiona Apple on this track, but she's got a really unique vibe. I cannot recommend this song highly enough, but take care to listen to the lyrics. Definitely not a brainless kind of song.

reminiscent

I was browsing through public transportation information, and I came across San Francisco's F-Market & Wharves, which I've ridden a few times. One of the most memorable was when I was young. I remember riding this particular model of streetcar with my dad. When we were riding, a man on the streetcar threw his briefcase out of the streetcar. He then proceeded to jump out. I suppose he was late. It was the most peculiar sight, as you can't jump out of most streetcars to begin with! Such is the beauty of a vintage streetcar. At least I think it was this one ... I suppose that's what I remember, and that the streetcar had to have been shaped like a boat. And seeing as a boat-shaped streetcar really would not fit on the streets of San Francisco ... well, you get the idea.

crazy delicious

... I'm still procrastinating.

when pokemon and politics collide

Possibly one of the funniest things I've seen all night. Go look. I promise it's worth it. More when I'm not freaking out due to stress. Give me a week or so.

I don't know why I love this video so much.



Anyway, this week looks to be stressful. I hope to jam through the rest of the projects I have to do. In a week, there are also final exams, so it's almost over! Holy crap!

And then ... D.C. and Boston! My new carrot at the end of the stick, besides yarn that I made my roommate hide. That's a whole 'nother subject. Really wondering whether I should just combine this blog and my knitting blog. Separating my life is horribly difficult, I think. That, and am I really that interesting? Then again, perhaps this one is just lots of inspiration and cool tidbits. Chi sa? (Who knows?)

you were the music, and you were my love

I've been romping around broadway.com, and I've stumbled upon a number of lovely videos that I want to archive. For myself and for others, naturally.

Songwriters Hall of Fame Honors Sheik & Sater:
1 of 7: John Gallagher, Jr. - "All That's Known"
2 of 7: Lauren Pritchard, John Gallagher, Jr. & Duncan Sheik - "Mr. Chess"
3 of 7: Lauren Pritchard with John Gallagher, Jr. - "The Dark I Know Well"
4 of 7: John Gallagher, Jr & Lauren Pritchard - "Left Behind"
5 of 7: ?
6 of 7: ?
7 of 7: ?

I find it interesting that after leaving the show, JG gets to perform his character's funeral song in a mini-concert. Oh, and do watch "Mr. Chess" as it's interesting to hear others besides DS take on the material. Also, as they post the last three videos, I hope to add them to this little archive. I'm a nut. I know it. Here's more proof.

Modern Love: Spending Valentine's Day with the Cast of Spring Awakening
1 of 4: Romance
2 of 4: Firsts
3 of 4: Dos and Don'ts
4 of 4: Love on Broadway

And!
Rent is closing on June 1! That makes me sad, but watching Anthony Rapp narrate the last commercial and give some commentary makes me sadder.
