Made mah day.

Oh also shit DrP that's awesome. As someone who potentially wants to work in Japan myself, I've definitely thought of what a difficult decision that would be (even if the possibility isn't as near-to-present for me).

I know. It's completely crazy because this just happened yesterday!! I have always wanted to work abroad in a long term assignment, but they don't want to go that route, so it's much harder to make a decision.

But I am putting tons of effort to make sure I come to a solid decision!

That's great Dr.P!

Pokemon Symphonic Evolutions was a lot of fun! A bunch of my friends were there, and I got a shirt! Also, I got over 100 StreetPasses. Wow.
People's etiquette wasn't too bad. There was always one person who yelled "Woohoo" or something when a new character or Pokemon appeared, but it was quiet enough when it counted, like during N's Farewell.

If you couldn't tell, I'm using more interjections to compensate for the current problems in the forum's layout.

Re pokemon concert:

The music isn't bad, it's mostly the crowd that's the problem.  All the bad stereotypes you can think of, and they don't understand classical music ettiquette.  An orchestra best projects its sound to a quiet audience. (of course dependent on the physical properties of the specific concert hall, but that's a separate matter) Big bands bring in their special recording equipment and walls of precisely oriented & calibrated speakers, thus allowing for the tomfoolery...

I felt bad for the guy that came in wearing a suit to enjoy the concert. People were screaming and even cosplaying. Huh. I thought the music was good, but not awesome. Junichi Masuda was awesome though. But I wish he conducted more than once!

People were screaming and even cosplaying.

Wait I'm confused
I understand the frustration with people screaming/otherwise being obnoxious during the performance, but like, how is cosplaying disrespectful or inappropriate in this scenario? This isn't the NY Phil, it's aimed toward video game lovers of all backgrounds, and I would hardly think of dress code as something important enough to transfer over

[Jub3r7]

She probably felt awkward for the guy in the suit because it wasn't that formal, as evidenced by the screaming and cosplaying.

[FierceDeity]

Ah that makes more sense. I was interpreting it more in the "people are being so disrespectful" sense with which most people have been regarding the concert

double post because relevant:

Just got drunk with a room full of RAs. 2 of which were on duty at the time. Life is funny.

Wow. That like NEVER happened with any of the RAs I knew. I only gave alcohol to my residents the week I turned 21 (which was pretty much the last week of school). What would they do? Fire me? With 2 weeks left?

[FierceDeity]

To be fair, I didn't actually live in their building I was friends with one of them, and just came over to chill, not realizing it'd be the entire residential staff of the building lol

So my sister got her mission call today
She's going to Pittsburgh, leaving for the MTC on Sep 23

[mikey]

you don't seem excited

[ZeldaFan]

Of course I'm excited for her!
I'm just not excited that my lil sis is leaving for 18 months... 

BTW Noc, I posted that the exact way that you post everything. I'm never able to read your emotion in your posts, just saying

[mikey]

dang, you're right
The only difference is I try to type the way I say stuff

[Dudeman]

Monotonously and without punctuation?
