Strangely cute, and annoyingly addictive…
What is this mysterious thing of which i speak? Find out later…


Man, and I thought MyO was quiet before VV kicked off…its deader than heaven on a saturday night these days. however, my shout outs to Cee-Cee and Min-chan for starting to visit again…how long has it been since we met on this very site? Must be about 4 years…


I'm glad you guys enjoyed my last post. Its nice to take a step back, and look at something we take for granted and really think about it. Like, for example, the other day when I was at work, the phone rang. It was another Cotswolds store looking for a product we supposedly had. After I finished dealing with them, I was curious to know where their store was. My store is Cotswolds Covent Garden, and it’s in London. Their store was Cotswolds Harrogate, which is up north in Yorkshire. For you Americans who live mind-boggling distances away from each other, Yorkshire isn’t that far away from London (about three-four hours drive on a good day), but its far enough away, and yet there I was having a conversation with a person there as if they were standing right next to me, yet in reality, my voice patterns had to travel ALL the way there via wires and stuff, then she had to formulate a response and send it back using the SAME wires, and it all takes place in an instant. Such an old simple method of communicating that we take for granted, yet when you really stop to think about it, it’s pretty amazing. Its fun to look at the world like that….makes life more interesting and enjoyable.


Thank you also to those who had topics of their own that they were thinking about. Please, by all means write these up and I’ll post em up on my “World” blog. Get your thoughts out there, encourage more independent thought away from formal education!


Anyway, enough with the crazy life stuff.

I stumbled across this yesterday. Its apparently a 3-D version of one of the EDs to Sgt Frog. But the dance is pretty cool, and cute…



Also, that last bit? It’s a song and dance called Caramelldansen. Its very simple, yet strangely addictive and catchy… and apparently quite a phenomenon…here’s a few examples:

…you get the idea….

Its based on a song called Caramelldansen by a group/artist called Caramell (who appear to be Swedish or something) but someone put the “speedycake” remix along with that dance, and VOILA! Instant internet meme.

By the by, that girl singing in the first video is the green haired Chibi, called Hatsune Miku, and she has no voice actor or singer…she is a Character from a piece of software called Vocaloid, which is a computer program that allows you to imput lyrics and a tune, and then Hatsune’s voice is digitally synthesised to sing along and dance in pop-idol esque videos (not all of em Chibi, or CG). There are several Vocaroids (see the first video), and all have their own software, with different ranges and styles of music.


Isn’t technology great?

Here to see you off are the second Vocaloids in the series, Rin and Len…



Heh, you shall be singing this song the rest of the day. DANCE PUPPETS! CARAMELLDANSEN!!!
