It's a Kelsey sales event! Everything about me must go! [18 Jul 2009|12:03pm] gleam_the_cube [ mood | Optimistic ] [ music | Neko Case- Red Tide ] I don't know what happened, but I've found myself with a renewed interest in my LiveJournal. Maybe it's because of the recent Facebook drama, or maybe I'm freaked out by how much I don't hate Twitter (Follow me!), but LiveJournal is once again my go-to for internet time-wasting. I've been updating more frequently than I have in years, and I even got with the times and finally upgraded to the S2 style system with a fancy new layout (gleam_the_cube). I'm sorry, LiveJournal universe, for neglecting you for the past three or so years. I promise it will be different from now on. I'm a changed person, I swear! I've even made a resolution to cut at least six inches off my hair before August is over. My hair is my security blanket, so this is big. I'm in the midst of a complete life overhaul and this is just the beginning. I'm getting into music again, even going so far as buying CDs (last purchases: Boxer by The National and In Our Bedroom After the War by Stars). If anyone has recommendations, feel free to make them here. I'm also going to get more involved in my local community. I don't know how, exactly; I haven't thought that far ahead, but it's on my list! That has to count for something, right? Well, we'll see about that last one...

Compuglobalhypermeganet. [11 Jul 2009|08:25pm] gleam_the_cube [ mood | Shocked to my core ] [ music | MGMT- Electric Feel ] I... I just... Well, umm... OK, before I get into it let me preface this entry with this: I'm at work and I am bored and I have an internet connection. That should say it all. Anyways. I, uhh... I went to sign up on Twitter because, like I said, I'm at work, I'm bored and my employers have been kind enough to grace me with an internet connection and they are all about the Twitter, DON'T JUDGE ME, but my desired username was already taken. I wanted just plain old "kelseytreichel," but wouldn't you know it? There is another Kelsey Treichel in this world and she got to Twitter before me! Now, I never expected to be the only person out of six billion to have this name, but I always figured that anyone else who had this name would have to be some little old Norweigan lady living in a remote village up north with her German husband and no internet connection. And elk. She totally has an elk farm. But no, this Kelsey Treichel appears to be of the college-student-variety, not unlike myself, and now my entire existance has been called into question. This is happening way too often this week; I'm getting pretty sick of it. And on top of that, she hasn't even "tweeted" (ugh) anything! What a waste! Maybe this is for the best. After all, it has thus far prevented me from signing up for Twitter. That probably won't last long, however, as I still have an hour and a half left on my shift and I am very bored. ETA: Yeah, I totally signed up. Anyone else on Twitter? 13 thoughts| and the sky came falling

You may remember me from such films as "The Greatest Story Ever Hulaed." [11 Jul 2009|02:44pm] gleam_the_cube [ mood | Stoked ] [ music | The Bugle #81 ] With the threat of my future looming imminently over me like a giant funnel-cloud of life-altering doom, I have come up with a list of movies, in chronological order, that I'm looking forward to this summer to help distract me from the crushing realities of life. Blood: The Last Vampire, limited release 10 July. Chances are this won't get released here, but I've been surprised in the past. It looks like it's basically going to be Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Kill Bill rolled into one giant pile of awesome. ( Look Who's Oinking! Look Who's Oinking! ) 2 thoughts| and the sky came falling

Your cooking's only got two moves: Shake and Bake. [04 Jul 2009|08:37pm] gleam_the_cube [ mood | Hungry ] [ music | Franz Ferdinand- No You Girls ] I am so stoked for the Heritage Festival. A few samplings of this year’s menu: Borneo: Banana fritters- Bananas deep fried in batter and sprinkled with icing sugar. Caribbean: Coconut drops- Coconut boiled in sugar. Korea: Honey pancake- Korean style pancake with honey sauce. Peru: Arroz con Leche- Peruvian rice pudding (Also: Inka Cola). Turkey: Baklava and Turkish coffee- “Coffee prepared in a thousand year old style of bring incredibly fine ground and in small quantities being boiled slowly and teasingly.” Venezuela: Quesillo- Caramel filled vanilla flan. I have no idea why I’m on such a dessert kick tonight but that’s all I can think about. Also, it’s adorable that Canada’s menu consists of nothing but Nanaimo bars, butter tarts and poutine. Really? That’s what we’re known for? Good lord… and the sky came falling
