Valentines Day and Castratis
So it's valentines day and I'm at home, typing away, watching my bro play Twilight Princess, and participating in the Gaia Valentines Day event. Yeah, I got choco from my family. Yummy.

I'm sure you're wondering what a Castrati is. Well, it's a type of voice. Males would be... castrated before their voices changed, and then trained extensively. So they would be grown men with voices of women. A law was passed to make it against the law to make Castratis around 1930. I learned all this in music.
And yesterday we listened to a Castrati in class. It was strange to listen to something that was No More. It was originally recorded on a wax cillinder. I don't remember the guy's name, even though sensei did tell us. But yeah, there was a lot of surface noise. The voice had a lot of emotion in it, but it didn't effect me. A lot of things don't effect me... But it was nostalgic, you know. I was hearing it but it was long dead, long dust. You know?
