"I'm not even angry. I'm being so sincere right now."

I've been listening to the "unofficial" Portal soundtrack on repeat since I downloaded it Monday morning. It isn't a very long tracklist, and a lot of it is a little slow and slightly boring, but I listen to it on the train going in to the city in the morning, so I'm asleep most of the time. And I enjoy it while I walk over to my building. Sometimes I skip ahead to "4000 degrees Kelvin" which is the first track with a faster beat.

This morning, however, I decided to add some other game music to my playlist -- the soundtracks from American McGee's Alice (which I'm dying to see/play), Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill 4. And then I put it on shuffle.

Guess what track played after "4000 degrees Kelvin"?

Amazingly, "Traversing the Portals of Reality" from the Silent Hill 4 soundtrack.

It's a sign. Of what exactly, I don't know. But.

Portal is amazing.


For anyone interested in an "unofficial" Bioshock soundtrack (which includes the full score by Garry Schyman, ambient music, music from radios, voice over text, journals, and the Moby remixes), I think you'll want to visit this post.

Can I stop now?

This whole week has been slightly insane and hectic. Last night was really fun, though. Met up with Liz after work, shopped at H&M (and actually found stuff I'd been looking for this time)! Then went over to meet up with Judy, Chris, Ben and John. Chris and John went to the Nightwish concert and the rest of us went to eat for Judy's birthday dinner.

We ended up at a Japanese (all-you-can-eat) buffet place, slightly expensive at $26/plate, but the food was delicious. I really overstuffed myself, but I don't think I ate anywhere close to 26 dollars' worth of food. Ben and Liz did a little better on that front, I think. ^^; But the food really was delicious -- even the sushi (and I normally don't like sushi except for spicy tuna) was yummy. Raw clams were raw and clammy and squishy, and not bad. The yakiniku was mouth-watering. It tasted like the shishkebab my father used to make; oh man I really miss some of my father's cooking~.

Maryann made an appearance, but went home to work on her costume. Which turned out really beautifully, btw. I can't wait to post pics after the weekend~! I'm also really insanely happy with my own costume, as some of you may know because I've been unable to keep from squeeing to selected people. =D

It's all windy and rainy outside ~ so pretty. (Until, of course, I have to lug my bags of crap around in it. Hopefully it'll calm down a bit by 5?)
