practicality

Still not liking my floor much, but the mandatory house meeting ended up being less horribly sucky than I was expecting. Mostly because they did skits for the house rules, featuring my floor advisor (one of the cool people, although I will have to remember to not make disparaging comments about Quebec - she's from Montreal and speaks French as her first language) as a scary bum. And I have to admit that I'm afraid of Vancouver's homeless people - I feel bad about it, because I know a lot of times extenuating circumstances make people homeless, but the panhandlers are really aggressive. Moreso even than NYC, although we were in the 'good' parts of NYC.

Tomorrow is freshman orientation which means hopefully meeting some awesome science nerds - my group is all people in my Bio class. So right now I'm kind of bouncing around my room listening to VNV Nation and wondering if I can fix the sticky door on my closet myself. So! I decided to upload a few of my favorite VNV Nation tracks, because I meant to do so a couple weeks ago.

Kingdom - the one I mentioned as being really fitting for the demifiend - explanation is sort of spoilers, so google the lyrics, and you either get what I mean, or, uh, don't. One of my brother's two favorites, and also one of mine.

Epicentre - Another one of my favorites, which I strangely feel has some relevence to me. Also has awesome beats.

Standing - Ben's other favorite. Not quite one of my absolute tops, but it's up there.

Fearless - one of my favs - the words of this song are really kind of a personal reminder, of a great many things.
