UNDO and Rewrite
Comments!

Sami: No, I love it ^_^; I suppose from this point on it's going to be fairly hard to interact with the other characters though, seeing as we're all meant to be against each other. Unless they're just character posts; internal monologues and all that.

I haven't listened to the HIM album I bought very much, actually. The lyrics aren't always what I want to listen to, but the overall sound of the song is what I like.

Josh: Rule #something on the internet: THERE'S PORN OF IT! I can't remember where I heard that, but it's... disturbingly true.

elfpirate: *grins* It's good to see you again, hehe. I keep missing your updates because I'm inept and it doesn't show up in blue when I'm online >.>;

My imspiration's been sapped by all the business stuff. I suppose... in a way having Dan here limits the amount of creative stuff I can do, because we spend so much time together and are doing the film and everything else associated with the company to boot. But I wouldn't want it any other way, and once filming gets going it'll be much easier to make time ^_^



The third and fourth Fullmetal Alchemist OP themes are fantastic ^________^ I loves UNDO and Rewrite.

Eyecatch
I'm considering taking up a waiting job at Goodwood, because money could become a bit of an issue. Well, I want a job anyway but at the moment I haven't the time to take one up. Once we get past all of this it'll be easier to organise myself, though, which'll be cool ^_^

I meant to write this post yesterday, but I didn't end up having time. Sorry about that, Joshmaru.

OMFG I R TEH EMO!
This stems from a PM Josh (JJ) sent me the other day, in which he described himself as 'emo'. And I didn't think that was fair.

I think there's a definite type of emotionalism that the phrase 'emo' covers- something hideously melodramatic that's probably done for attention purposes. In a sense, being able to make yourself hyperexaggerate your emotional state (in writing) kind of lifts your self esteem, because you turn it into something that really matters and is all-enveloping; in general the people who are in most need of attention are those who don't ask for it.

The problems are all relative anyway; if someone's faced with a problem that is, as far as they're concerned, the hardest thing they've ever had to face then it's going to upset them more than if it happens to someone who's dealt with worse. But if someone should already know that it's only trivial and is still wallowing in their own depression for the sake of it, then it's emo. One of my younger sister's friends seems to exist only to complain about how horrible life (and everyone around her) is to her despite being given opportunities that she's asked for to the contrary, and everyone got incredibly pissed off with her about it. Basically, she complained that she never got invited out anywhere, so they organised a get-together just for her, and invited as many people they could get hold of. When she was asked if she enjoyed it she said 'Yes, it was great', and later proceeded to explain about how inconsiderate everyone else was for not considering how lonely she felt when they were all hanging around with their respective partners or just ignoring her (which nobody was- she went off on her own accord to distance herself). That's emo.

I used to do that a bit, but not if I really cared about the friends I was with. It's incredibly selfish behaviour because it ties everyone else in knots trying to help you, and then you throw it back in their faces just to wallow in your own emotions again. She also thinks she's more mature than everyone else because she fancies a 20-year old at the age of 14.

Normal, balanced people shouldn't worry themselves too much about expressing how they feel and being honest if something's bothering them.

Anyway, as a phrase I don't really like 'emo'; from my point of view it's very easy to make yourself think that saying anything emotional is too much, that you're trying to over-dramaticise everything and end up saying nothing instead, doing bad things to your psyche.

I don't give a crap about the music sub-genre either, to be blunt.

I think UrbanDictionary's martyv has the best definition of Emo:

Emu spelled incorrectly.

"That emo sure is fast!"


I can't remember what else I was going to talk about. Probably something to do with how horrible it is trying to set up your own business. Or furries.

EDIT: o_O; I was just frightened by a saxophone solo. Came out of nowhere, it did.
