followed a friend's blog to the link for the new his dark materials movie, where you can find out the form of your daemon. i've loved those books since they first came out (and i can't believe emily's boss actually worked with philip pullman!) and while i feel a little weird about the fact that they're becoming movies, i had to go see what my daemon was. aaand. . . it's an ocelot! named alvin. i'm quite excited that it's an ocelot. ocelot's are cool. not so sure about "alvin." Maia and Alvin? Does that really work? I think they should've left out names like "Alvin" from the lists of possible names. But you know. Ocelot. Cool.
My eyelids are so puffy this morning I look kind of Asian. Not at all to insult Asian people. Actually it's funny, if you look at pictures of me as a baby I look a little Asian, something about the slant of my eyes (is someone going to attack me now for being totally racist?). What was really strange was when I was in Myrtle Beach for my Grandmother's service. All these people I didn't know were there, and one man was looking at the pictures around the house and saw one of my cousin Teresa, who is twelve and half Chinese (and you can definitely tell by looking at her that she's part Asian). "Is that you?" he asked me. I was baffled: do I look like I could have looked half Asian when I was about eight? Or was he just really unperceptive?
I have Rihanna's Umbrella song in my head now, and I'm kind of pissed off by the fact that itunes only offers it as a music video. Clearly it's a gimmick to get everyone to buy the song twice, once as a video and once as a song. that's a little crappy of itunes, if you ask me.
