This. I love the smell of eletronics as well, like new headphones plastic (got some Grado i60s the other day, hyped out on that), speakers, CDs, book shelving units (i have 6 mediac/book sheleves in my room, and enjoyed putting them all together). New shoe smells are nice, but only if not riddled with the stench of other people that may have tried them on.

Also, Starmongoose, having brazillian in me, I can vouche that we do walk around with kawaii pigs (not really, but i'd like think that's one of our stereotypes ;) ).

Ah, that is jazzy, haha.That's great...I don't recall hearing that track. Kind of reminds me of this: http://avideogamemusicblog.tumblr.com/post/26799409118/title-detective-kidds-theme-album-genso

That arranged Suikoden III album is a real trip...love it.

Well, let me place this one down then:
Star Ocean 3 - Calm Mind Reflected in the Pupil

Also, I'm such an airhead. I didn't realize Nobuo's "Waltz for the Moon" during the ballroom scene is just an arrangement of Julie's theme/Eyes on Me. My sister pointed this out to me while I was playing the theme and told me I was playing the ballroom theme. I told her no I wasn't it, until it dawned on me while I was making coffee moments later that's it the same theme, just arranged as a waltz. She surpassed her game music superior that day...I taught her well.

These beats are FRESH.

EDIT: I can't quit this game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhcllB-S6cs

Starting tomorrow, I'm going to go through my Twentieth Century Music History Class syllabus and brush up on remember the name of important people, names, and add to the syllabus with what I felt was missing from the course. The books we used for the class was:

Alex Ross's The Rest Is Noise: Listening to the Twentieth Century
Strunk's Source Readings in Music History: The Twentieth Century (Revised Edition) (Vol. 7) (Source Readings Vol. 7)

There was, of course, a great deal of pdfs we had to read through as well (I filled a 2inch binder easy), so that's going to be a pleasant experience. I still don't understand why it frustrates me to read pdfs/printouts versus reading from a book? It must be something along the lines of easy accessibility and smaller pages versus obnoxious, rough scanned pdfs.

On top of my reading, I plan on going through these books as well:

Michael Broyles's Mavericks and Other Traditions in American Music
Edward Strickland's American Composers: Dialogues on Contemporary Music
William Ducksworth's Talking Music: Conversations With John Cage, Philip Glass, Laurie Anderson, And 5 Generations Of American Experimental Composers
Judith Tick & Paul Beaudoin's Music in the USA: A Documentary Companion
K. Robert Schwartz's Minimalists (20th Century Composers)
Paul Griffiths's Modern Music and After
Richard Taruskin's Music in the Late Twentieth Century: The Oxford History of Western Music
Susan Key & Larry Rothe's American Mavericks: Musical Visionaries, Pioneers, Iconoclasts
John Warthen Sturble's The History of American Classical Music: MacDowell Through Minimalism
Scherer's A History of American Classical Music (With Audio, yay!)
Richard Crawford's America's Musical Life
Larry Austin, Douglas Kahn, & Nilendra Gurusinghe's Source: Music of the Avant-garde, 1966-1973
Peter Manning's Electronic and Computer Music

Morton Feldman's Give My Regards To Eighth Street
Steve Reich's Writings on Music, 1965-2000

Of course, there are plenty of other sources I hope to extract from, but these books are within reach of my book shelf for quick index-searching and topic finding. I do own several compilation recordings of 20th Century music to go along these readings, as well as Youtube.

Wish me the best. :)

How To Play Hide and Seek Alone

As always, read the top comments. I first saw about this in a  tumblr post, with the re-blog comments of:

"     hide and seek with a doll more like hELL FUCKING NO"

"All aboard the nope train to fuck that ville."

Ah, I'm going through Final Fantasy 6 as well (I'm playing it through the Virtual console though). Just got through the burning house in Thasmas. It's funny, because I'm doing the oposite with this runthrough of the game; I'm trying to get through it fast as possible with no attention paid to leveling up. So far, so good.

Little saddened that Lock has already reached level 25...

Also, planning on playing through with Setzer, Gau, Strago, and Mog when I finally get full control of my team.

Last one for tonight...I promise:

Slam Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner - Soul Slammers

I cannot express in words the this priceless treasure:

Remix Heaven Album

Love Pipes (LOVE RAP - Loud Pipes) (Remix Heaven Album 1#)
Wrestling the Beat (Wrestler Interview - The Beat) (Remix Heaven Fever Album 2#)
241 Packing Pests (Packing Pests - 241) (Remix Heaven Fever Album 3#)
The American Factory (Robot Factory - American Way) (Remix Heaven Fever Album 4#)

And By far, the most impressive,

Airborne Thugs (Air Ralley - Thug Nigga) (Remix Heaven Fever Album #5)


Atelier Meruru - Will You Plow the Fields With Me +Jay-Z - 99 Problems

Why Internet, I don't even...

It's funny, because I stopped caring about everyone except Jazz, Falsetto, and Viola--probably why they were on my final team. In regards to battle, yes, you better be careful with later fights--I'm already thinking of a few boss fights that you might have trouble with. Endure the journey! :)

That was sweet of her and the same thing I would have done for my younger siblings.

Now that I think about it, the only thing I won in a contest was a big stocking full of toys--I was a kid, shush--from Burger King when they did those winter contests.

Also, hope you win! You should post your entry here :3

I enjoy my 3DSXl (bought it from my coworker for $140--what a steal!) and probably would agree that the angle of view for the 3ds is a little bit more forgiving. I noticed then when playing Liberation Maiden, which literally requires me to hold it with my left hand--the weaker hand that can't hold stuff straight for too long. Just promise that if you do get your son the 3DSXL, make sure he doesn't play for extended periods, because I don't care what anyone says, the 3dsxl feels really heavy to me (hence poor holding/angel-ing with my left hand) compared to what I used to use before (DS Lite).

Eh, maybe because it's just my hands and dealing with heavy stuff and playing piano.

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO PERFORMING PIANISTS! ;)

Chulip is beyond words. Great game...especially the music! :)
