more crazy anti-terrorist movements

from LSAT regulations:

Test takers may bring into the test room ONLY a clear plastic ziplock bag (maximum size one gallon / 3.79 liter), containing ONLY the following items: LSAT Admission Ticket stub, valid ID, wallet, keys, hygiene products, #2 or HB pencils (no mechanical pencils), erasers, pencil sharpener, highlighter, tissues, beverage in a plastic container or juice box (20oz./591ml. maximum size), and snack for break only.
doesn't this sound like airport security? dude, they must be thinking we're gonna bomb the test centre or something.

media

came across this magazine in my seminar: cabinet
it has a lot of weird stuff, but pretty cool.

veggietales movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the pirates who don't do anything
i've been thoroughly brainwashed by my dear harvard roomie, anna. ;)

cashmere mafia
my new favourite series. a 2007-08 version of Sex and the City, the girls all have blackberries! and at least some of them are married w/ kids (and one of them is gay, which adds more variety). SATC was alot of bitching about how single they were, but CM seems to be more like how successful women deal with marriage and relationships. the only downside is that i HATE Lucy Liu.... but Frances O'Connor and Miranda Otto make up for that, i guess.

and juno has been nominated for an oscar, which is great!

i've been copied?

random im convo w/ the watermelon lady.

watermelon: oh, and there was this girl i met yesterday who sounds a lot like you!
watermelon: it felt really weird!
watermelon: maybe it's the californian accent?
eveningfaces: huh? she just sounds like me?
watermelon: yup yup
watermelon: the way she talks, and her accent, and intonation
watermelon: it's really weird
watermelon: I've been trying to place it for the whole afternoon I was talking to her
watermelon: and then i realized that it reminds me of you
eveningfaces: hmm, that's weird
watermelon: but it was really cool =)
watermelon: i felt like i knew her for a long time as a result =)

so now i know there's at least one person in the world who sounds exactly like me. or maybe someone copied my windpipes without my noticing.

2008

happy new year!

experienced my first "western" new year's eve in a long time @ eva & orcun's, on the way back the police was checking for drunk drivers and despite the 2 martinis i had, i was not breathalized. because, of course, no drunk person would be playing schumann's piano pieces in their car. ;)

made my first attempt at new year's breakfast which turned out pretty well, stuffed myself with rice cake. later went to the johnston's open house and stuffed some more.
