reileenReileen's Christmas Loot (Because Hobviously Everyone Cares About What I Get)
+Three pairs of mildly crazy tights and three pairs of crazy socks. Anyone who knows me from my high school days knows my penchant for wearing the weirdest, most obnoxious socks/tights with my school uniform (our school had a really lax policy on socks and shoes, as long as we wore the uniform correctly*). The thing that has me most sad about leaving high school is that I don't get to show off my socks as much. Still, I love collecting the things, and I have no less than two dresser drawers full of the stuff. Which is clearly not enough socks pour moi, no sir.
+Brown knit duster. I have a black one and an off-white one already, but it's nice to get a little more variety (...lol) in my wardrobe.
+$205. Not only can I buy a set of new Prismacolor pencils (...or should I get Copic markers instead?), but I'll be able to buy Vienna Teng's Waking Hour songbook and a shirt from her shop. Fuck yeah.
+$25 gift card to Borders, $15 gift card to Kohl's, and a $20 gift card to Carson's. Plastic is always fantastic!
+A USB rechargeable digital photo album. Mommykins got this for me. Phwee? *wonders what she should put in this thing*
+A set of purse-sized hand lotions from Victoria's Secret. Which one should I use first: Love Spell, Amber Romance, Pure Seduction, Pear Glace, or Berry Kiss? 8D?
+Greece: A Traveler's Literary Companion from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
vyctori, like I mentioned before.
+Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World fromkiirobon. Now to find time to steal the Wii away from my buttmunch brother...
+Musicophilia: Tales of the Music and the Brain. omg I love this book. It's so fascinating.

The Philippines' biggest TV station has picked up the rights to make a TV series adaptation of Twilight; people are convinced that this is officially going to turn the series into a trainwreck, despite the fact that the canon features sparkling vampires. I hope this series turns Edward into an aswang. Then again, given that one of the activities attributed to the aswang is that it eats unborn fetuses and small children, maybe Edward already is one! It's perfect! [/Breaking Dawn snark]
A preview of the Yoshiwara arc for the Gintama anime. gods taht l00kz hawt. Kamui (KAMUCHAAAAAAAAAN) also has a sexy voice. His VA is Hino Satoshi, who doesn't seem to have done a lot of overly famous roles, although he voices Sai from Naruto Shippuden. He's apparently collaborated with Rie Kugimiya before - he sounds good (RLY GOOD) as Kamui.
Take a look and cower in fear at Faerie's Aire and Death Waltz, a humorous look at complicated, unreadable orchestra scores. Make sure you read all the little interpretation comments!
Making Light has collected various translations of Luke 2:1-14. This makes the language nut in me very happy.
Hope the rest of y'all are having a nice winter holiday!

*"Correctly" = shirt buttoned up, skirt zipped up, no ankle socks (this was a really stupid rule, I still can't imagine why they came up with it halfway through my high school years), no flip-flops. You'd be surprised how many girls found these specifications incredibly hard to follow.
