Whoa!
So now I see the beauty in the conventional male voice! I hardly even breathed when I heard the version of “Zefiro Torna” on Youtube. I first heard it when Jaroussky and Rial sang it, but this time it’s done by two tenors. They’re a little flat in places and their voices don’t match too well but other than that, it’s pretty good. The tenor voice finally seems beautiful to me! It has a certain warm quality.

Nowadays, it seems that pop music does nothing for me. I found myself fidgiting when I played some tunes from my old iPod, but when I listened to some classical music my mind came alive and listened properly, the image of the score in my head as the music went along.
Whaow! A little more than a year ago, I couldn't spend more than 10 minutes listening to classical instrumental music because I thought it was so boring. I've come a long way.

Spent yesterday and today wasting my life on the computer playing games. The downloading of Maple Story took a bloody 5-6 hours and in the end, it couldn't even be played due to some error in installation, so I deleted the whole thing.
My Brother hasn't fixed Sims 3 for me yet, so I still can't play it. I've been asking him to help me fix it since last Friday. Lazy jerk.

I'm currently deep into "The Secret of Monkey Island", which, in case you people don't know, was/is the first in the series. I love pirate culture. Guybrush Threepwood is so awesome in a wimpy loser kind of way, and his determination never ceases to amaze me, not to mention his wit.
"I'm Guybrush Threepwood, mighty pirate!"
