I'm so broke that I can't get anyone presents this year. But I am going to bake a chocolate cake for Christmas dinner.

Yeah. I'm totally not feeling the Christmas spirit. I think it's a sign that I need to watch Love Actually. . To me, Love Actually is the epitome of Christmas...not presents, not family, not dinner, no snow...nothing. Just Love Actually.

Ffion, my darling! <3

Ahoy! How's the sunburn? Better, I hope!

Hmm. The last time I cut my hair was like a year-ish ago and I think I cut it to my shoulder blades or something. Yeah, probably the bottom of my shoulder blades.

Thank GOD it grows back. I cut me some bangs the other day and they look odd. But I can't figure out why. But when I go to have the rest of my hair cut, I'll get them to fix it for me.

Thanks!

Hmm. I'll probably just get a trim. Maybe 3-4 inches? Just enough to get rid of some split ends.

It's difficult to say anything cause you will always end up sounding like a creep. But people who post them should be expecting pervy comments anyway.

Thanks! Yeah, my hair needs a cut soon. But nothing drastic.

Tom-toms are called "shime"[sHI-meh] ("meh" like the "me" in "merry"). We switch around. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses but most of us can play all parts (but we have been playing for around 15-16 years). You should definitely try if you can! It's a bit tricky in the beginning but it's fun. Rhythms come much easier if you have western drumming experience. You'd probably be excellent on a shime.

Thanks. It was from a group of a few pics I took for the post your hair thread but I was feeling rather ...adventurous so I took the nekkid one too.

I didn't watch the whole thing but it look like everything is set rhythms whereas we might have a set introduction and ending but then have a solo/improvisation section where we solo but nothing is set and a soloist just plays whatever while the others keep the beat (and sometimes play off of the soloist). Tom-toms I never thought of them that way. You're right, they're usually the ones that hold the basic beat cause when you're playing the other drums, the high pitch makes it easy to hear the beat. It's quite fun.

:LOL: It's okay. We're all a bunch of pervs on here anyway.

On noooo. My profile? I haven't looked at that thing in a while. I think I need to update bits of it.

That is quite traditional but I guess it's typical for a traditional style. My group is more contemporary. There is a director but I think that's more because most of us started playing when we were like 5 or 6. Now, most of us just sort things our amongst ourselves in terms of artistic direction for the songs we write.

Hoorah! I just looked at the new one. I love it! =D

Aw! Too bad we don't live in the area. I'd totally do it!

So I heard you ran through a Primark with a sombrero on doing a Slipknot SIT THE FUCK DOWN....

i clicked on your daily doodles link thingy on your signature...do you do all those yourself? they're very good. you should submit them to threadless and get tees made!

ps. the smiley face waaaaay at the bottom totally made me smile =)

I'm good. Totally not wanting to go to sleep yet and OH SHIT 3AM! ( I literally just looked at the time.) Hahahaha oh well. I don't ahve work for another 12 hours so I'm good.

How are you? All ready for Christmas?

No way! FLYING squirrel...not a normal one. Take a look: (Now that I think about it, the shape is all wrong but anyway... :LOL:

I have not. The last time they were in Vancouver I was too young to go to their gig cause it was at a club. :'(

And OMG when I saw the dates and they were all European venues I was like they MUST have a North American Tour!!! But now that they're coming...and hopefully to Vancouver... I'll be there with no questions asked. At the barrier. With glassy eyes. HAHAHAHA.

I'd drive to Seattle or Portland though if by some ridiculous chance they don't come to Vancouver...but they have to come right?

[Yeah. I overuse smileys. ]

SAME! *high five* Well I can speak it but then my accent is just . But technically I'm 3/4 Chinese and 1/4 Japanese.
