*wants to HULKSMASH the upstairs people* D:

1. I've been feeling nostalgic for SGA lately -- I think I'll download all of the seasons (with the exception of Season One, which I own, and Season Five, which was a pretty terrible season other than a handful of awesome episodes) and watch random episodes during lunch. I also want to re-listen to some of my favourite SGA podfics. :>:>

2. And speaking of podfics: as I was walking back from the movie theatre with my friend S, she expressed her desire to be a voice actor (note: her dream vocation changes every week ;)) -- she explained how she loved to read aloud when she was younger. I suggested she could record audiobooks (she had no idea they existed ;;;) and as we were discussing this, I kept on thinking about podfics and how recording them is a really awesome hobby. Though S is a close friend, I just couldn't imagine explaining fanfiction to her -- and the thought of her stumbling across my recordings is kind of, well, mortifying. X3

3. This is the cutest video ever. The kitty! Demanding the puppy to lick its ear! Omg the cute at 0:25 aldsfjal;fj♥!

No fix yet on the upstairs problem, eh? FAIL. FAIL. FAIL.

Happy Canada Day!

I called the RA on duty yesterday and she went upstairs to speak with them. Apparently, they were so loud she could hear them even in the hallway. D: They're probably temporary residents, but still, not going to be a fun summer if they're going to be shouting and stomping the whole time, *sigh*. The RA suggested that I could put in a Suite Change request and move up to the ninth. [/whining]

Did you go out today at all? There were so many people, like, everywhere. Swarms, I tell you, swarms.

[cantarina]

Sadface no, I was pretending to do school work and doing some much needed putting about the kitchen. It's been a mercifully quiet day on the EA phone, though. I'm glad you enjoyed the crowds :D

Ugh, moving is a terrible recourse, but I'm glad you called the RA. She's kind of awesome and I know she'll have done everything she can to help.

I didn't know you recorded podfics! I wish I had the voice to do something like that...

And that video was adorable ♥

[fishpatrol]

I don't know if I actually have the voice for it, but I record podfics because it's a lot of fun! :D (well, the editing part, not so much... editing is just a pain X3) You should try it out if you want to! All you need is a microphone and a program such as Audacity.

I KNOW, RIGHT. Eee~~ \o\

Happy Canada Day to youuuuu.

It makes me want to get a puppy and a kitty just so I can film them doing cute things! :D

♥!

SGA rewatch, y/y? :D I've been wanting to watch it all over again.

omg that kitty! ♥_____♥

[fishpatrol]

Y!!! (didn't we have this plan to do a rewatch last summer? haha~ we should do it this summer, then!) I watched The Return yesterday, and eee, I've missed the John&Rodney banter.

[lemniciate.livejournal.com]

(haha i think so! but this year it'll happen!) i need to dig out all the burned dvds and figure out which seasons i don't have.

(also also. when are you relatively free? i'm doing a loveless rewatch and am trying to figure out when to do it. you should come jooooooin in :D :D)

[fishpatrol]

Cool! We can totally start from a random season and, like, skip the crappy episodes. ;D

Oh man, Loveless -- now I've gotta search and dig out my burned DVDs. XD Anytime, really! Oh god, it's been so long since I've watched anime and I can't remember how long each episode is -- are they 20 or 40 minutes long? XD;;;;

[akintay.livejournal.com]

The video made my day. Omg.

[fishpatrol]

:D! (also, your icon! ♥!) I'm a frequent visitor of cuteoverload.com and dailysquee.com to get my daily does of cute. ;)

[disutansu.livejournal.com]

I've never heard of "HULKSMASH" before, but that sounds awesome. XD

2. I didn't know you record fanfics. *_* I did that once in a voice post, and it was then I realized how flkdsjfkj it really is... OTL [/fail] I like reading out loud as well, though I don't think I'm very good at it. >_>

3. HOMG *EXPLODES FROM THE CUTE*

4. HAPPY CANADA DAY! :D

It's an expression of anger, from what I understand -- and I feel a lot of anger toward the upstairs people. XD

I think podfic is something that anyone who likes reading fic and have a microphone can engage in! There isn't a specific type of voice or anything that is absolutely necessary. I do it 'cause I enjoy it and it allows me to practice speaking slowly and clearly (I have a tendency to ramble at a high speed and stumble/slur when I speak XD;;).
