    Review: KORG DS-10 Synthesizer

    Heh, there was me suspecting it'd be extremely limiting and produce terrible sound. Shows you what I know, I'll have to pick up a copy.

    Poll: Cooking, can you do it?

    Yeah, I can cook, my latest triumph being pains au chocolat, which I'd never attempted before, was very scared they'd fail, but they didn't, and now my flat mates are nudging me to make more. Irritating really, since it takes about 10 hours (including cooling at rising times), but worth it...

    I'm completely lost on what to get him...

    Firebox stuff is always cool, and they have a gift finder. But definitely get a bag of the sweets too if you can afford it; something to eat & something to keep if a good combination.

    Class President

    Steal the Carlsburg slogan, "Probably the best Class President in the World." Then give reasons why.

    Things you repent.

    You can't expect everyone to have the same level of skill in a second language, particularly since you don't know how long they've studied it for. Anyway, I can never think of anything I regret - things go wrong sometimes, but no one has a perfect life, so it seems better to simply accept...

    Adventures in bad parenting...

    Meh, letting your kids watch violent films, or play violent video games isn't a problem as long as you're going to teach them enough that they know it's not actually ok to go out and kill hookers (or for that matter anyone else).

    Keyboard Problems, help?

    That happens when you have an English keyboard and you have it set up for American software (or vice-versa). You'll probably find the "£" and "$" symbols are in the wrong place. You can probably change the settings somewhere, but unhelpfully, I can't remember where - try googling it I guess.

    Poll: Favorite Horror Movie Villain

    Definitely Dracula, though that's probably largely from having read the novel, either way I just find him a very compelling character

    Poll: Ipod or Zen?

    My Zen was always solid, I can't really comment on the newer nanos and other ipods, but a lot of my friends had the older ipods that were far from reliable.

    What Web Browser are you using?

    Firefox 3, and as far as I'm concerned it does it's job more than well enough. I'd consider trying chrome, but that EULA is just a bit too repulsive for me.

    Things that make you really annoyed!

    Fad diets. The O.C. DeviantArt. Being "alternative" for its own sake. Hybrid cars. Spider plants. Cereal. Every talk show host. Old comedy. Anyone who takes anything (including themselves too seriously).

    Composers who tickle your fancy

    Vivaldi and Barber keep cropping up on my playlists, as does Chopin, and somehow I can never press "skip." Possibly because they're all really quite good.

    Poll: Whats the point of achievement points

    If you get them all, you get to be king of the world for a year. No, really.

    What do you want in life?

    Just happiness, for which I require a career in physics (which I'm well on track for), somewhere nice to live, and to be with my boyfriend. Pretty soppy, but what can I say?
