Random Randomness 2/18/12

Hey ya'll. Again, my apologies for my long absence of posting. I've become so lazy, it's unbelievable. XD From now on, I'm going to try to post every week. Emphasis on try. You know what they say...you try, you fail; you try, you fail, but the only true failure is when you stop trying!
Alright, let's get this show on the road. As of late, I have been feeding my inner nerd to the point of near gluttony. Hyrule Royal Family crest zip-up jacket? Check. Hours of video games when I get home from work? Check. Watching The Big Bang Theory on Hulu? Check.

OFCOURSEIDOI'MAPRINCESSANDTHISISMYTIARA!!!

Bahahahaaa. One of my favorite scenes from TBBT. Folks, this show may have some serious stupid, but it also has some serious funny as well. I'm not addicted to it by any means, but it has occupied a lot of my time this past week. I'm definitely gunna buy a Bazinga! t-shirt or a button at some point.

And Skyward Sword. I feel like I should write a review or something about it, but right now I just can't think of anything fitting to say. I will say this, however: this game is BEAUTIFUL. If true beauty can be captured in a video game, it is captured in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. I do believe that this game rivals Ocarina of Time. It's pure fun. Every aspect of it is perfect. I hadn't had so much fun playing a video game since I played OoT as a 7 year old, in fact. Skyward Sword brought back many wonderful memories for me. Feeling like a kid again is one of the reasons why video games like this are so loved. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Zelda forever!


Glee. Yup. I don't like Glee, I think there are a lot of moral issues in it, but yesterday I happened to watch Amber Riley (Mercedes)'s cover of Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You, and I was impressed.

Beautiful. Whitney would be proud!

...So let's see, what else do I have for today...AH. I'm very happy to announce that I have been rather productive. Work has been going very well, and I've been drawing and writing regularly. I'll have new art in my deviantART gallery and poems at Writer's Cafe next week. Not only that, but I've been reading too. I just recently finished Maggie Stiefvater's Forever (absolutely shameful, considering I started it last year). Amazing book. Now I'm reading Stiefvater's The Scorpio Races. It's great so far. You can keep up with my reading at my Goodreads (see "Links" at the bottom of the page).

Finally, I joined Pinterest, if anyone's interested in following my boards. I just pin randomness. Quotes, art, stuff. Find me here: Aianarie @Pinterest

And that's all for this week. Hope you enjoyed. :-) Laters!

Random Randomness 11/19/11

Yeah I’m notorious for it, so why not some randomness?  First on the list today is that I would like to introduce my personal YouTube account, LyricLuminosa.  As my screen name suggests, I will be uploading mostly lyric videos that I have made.  Here is my first-ever lyric video, O Sanctissima by the boys’ choir that I’ve been rambling about so often lately, Libera.

Such a relaxing, absolutely beautiful song.  It was the first one I heard of Libera, so it has a very special place in my heart!

Alrighty then, enough about that.  Honestly, I could go on forever about them London boys.  (Oh, wait! They have a new video for a song I absolutely LOVE, Eternal Light: [link] Btw, I’m currently at work on an Exsultate lyric vid!) Anyhow, next, THE HUNGER GAMES TRAILER!  It made its debut on Good Morning America this past Monday.  I watched it with lingering weight in the pit of my stomach, telling me that it wasn’t going to be as awesome as I have been hoping.

I liked it.  Um, yeah.  I really, really want to see this movie.

Finally, I pre-ordered the Skyward Sword Remote/CD bundle.  I got an e-mail earlier this week saying it had been shipped.  INDESCRIBABLE HAPPINESS.   I AM SO UTTERLY EXCITED FOR THIS GAME IT’S NOT EVEN FUNNY.  Oops, sorry, caps lock.  Yes.  Link and Zelda love each other in this game!  OMG LOVE LOVE LOVE—darn that caps lock!—JUST WATCH THIS VIDEO.

DEAR NINTENDO, PLEASE STOP TEASING US.

LOVE,
ASHLEY
