Day 15 –
Something you don’t leave your house without.
There are 3
things that I always make sure that I have:
1. a
rosary 2.
Burt’s Bees lip
balm 3. my wallet 4.
pepper spray ...Just
kidding about #4. Who needs pepper spray when you've got ninjutsu.
(And yes, that is an Akatsuki wallet. Be jealous.)
I’m going to
split this into two categories: live action and anime.
First, live
action.It was tough for me to move on
and find a new show after my Sherlock and Doctor Who obsessions, but I’ve
really been loving Once Upon A Time.Also,
just yesterday I watched the first two episodes of Supernatural(yeah, I
know, I’m a little late with jumping on that bandwagon, ha ha ha), and I’m
actually really liking it so far.
As for
anime, I’m still watching Naruto, although I have to admit
that all of the emotions involved therein are really getting to my head.I’ve been trying to take a break from it and since
I’m been in such a nostalgic mood lately I’ve been re-watching classic anime
from my childhood such as Sailor Moon, Pokémon, Rurouni
Kenshin, and Inuyasha. I’m also on the lookout
for new series (both live action and anime) to try, but haven’t had much luck.If anybody has any suggestions, leave me a
comment!
Oh, how I
was hoping that this question wouldn’t come up.My “favorite” music changes periodically.Although, these three are usually always on my list:
Owl City, Lindsey Stirling, and Thomas Bergersen.
I am
especially drawn to music that has great lyrics (if applicable, of course; I do like a lot
of instrumental music), harmonious sound, and inspires me to create.
As I thought
about the question more and more, I realized what musician has had the greatest
impact on me as a person, my life, and my works.This would be Koji Kondo, the composer of the The Legend of Zelda video
games.
For your
listening pleasure:
Song of Storms (SSBB Version)
Gerudo Valley (SSBB Version)
Zelda's Lullaby - Ocarina of Time
Midna's Lament (SSBB Version)
Romance in the Air - Skyward Sword
The music of
the Zelda series has the uncanny ability to express settings and emotions in
nonverbal music.I tried to pick songs
to share here on my blog that are very different in both substance and style.
