Enya may have just friended me on LiveJournal!

Enya may have just friended me on LiveJournal!!

Enya may have just friended me on LiveJournal!!!

My proof:

- The username, an_bhean_airgid, is Irish for "silver lady", which sounds like something Enya would say
- an_bhean_airgid's birthdate is May 17
- a_b_a's location is Ireland
- The only person a_b_a friended (me) is writing a story that technically counts as an Enya story even though really it's just Super Mario Galaxy 2 with Enya and Moya thrown in
- a_b_a made a community called enyastories the same day they friended me, possibly out of interest in Moya's Space Log
- The only entry so far in enyastories says at one point, "'And Winter Came...' is the beginning of a story (really, Roma says so)." "Really, Roma says so." While a_b_a could just be an Enya fan who read that out of an interview or something, to me it sounds more "I actually am Enya and Roma told me in person" than "I'm an Enya fan reading an interview with Roma".
- The mood icons in enyastories are of cats, which Enya has said that she loves

It gets even stranger. Earlier this year, I had a dream that there were three secret pages on enya.com accessible only with passwords, and one password was a six-digit number apparently hidden in the lyrics to Pax Deorum somehow, and while I don't remember the entire password, I'm pretty sure either the first or last 3 digits were a 0, a 2, and a 6 in no particular order.

Today is 12-06-10.

So much mystery! In fact, I'm gonna private message a_b_a and ask if they're Enya right after I'm done with this entry. :P

EDIT: In Simple Gematria, "an_bhean_airgid" is 93 and "Enya Brennan" is 113. Add these together and you get 206!

An iPod studded with diamonds? Does it have a fancier version of the imposter song glitch? Like maybe it plays one song, but on screen it shows the title of another, the artist of yet another, the album of still another, the album art of yet still another, and the seekbar of still yet another. "Ladies and gentlemen, ENYIDLINE MCLWENLDPLAY with his/her #1 hit, ORINOCO WHITE FALLING CLOWN BENT LOGIC!"

Also, I redesigned my "Enya is part Yoshi" userpic. Now Enya looks cuter, more Super Mario World-styled, and more like herself, in my opinion.

I found a very bizarre glitch in my iPod today.

Y'see, I was listening to Backwards by Rascal Flatts, and apparently paused it the instant the song ended and put my iPod in my pocket so it would automatically turn off. The next time I turned it on, the song it was playing was Adia by Sarah McLachlan, but the screen still said Backwards. I just now got the opportunity to see what happens if I listen to "Adiwards" by "Sarascal McLachltts" all the way through: the iPod stays silent for a few seconds with Backwards still on the screen, then Adia replaced Backwards for a few seconds (still silent), then it went to the next song (Time After Time by Sarah McLachlan & Cyndi Lauper) normally. I also noticed that I had thought that the battery ran out during the song, yet when I charged my iPod, it still had all my songs on shuffle, even though I usually have to shuffle them again. (Maybe I just turned off my iPod by accident and thought the battery ran out...)

I never thought about glitches in my iPod before...this calls for further experimentation! For starters, I tried skipping back to those songs, and they had reverted to a normal Backwards followed by a normal Adia. I then tried looking at the play counts for those songs in iTunes. Both were 7, an understandable number for it to be (since I listen to Enya most often), so the iPod must not have put glitchy data there in its confusion.

Here are the things I have left to try on an imposter song:

- Skip to the previous song
- Skip to the next song
- Attempt to look at what position in the shuffled order (I dunno what you'd call it... it says "X of Y") the song is
- Use the seek bar
- Change the song's rating
- Add to On-The-Go
- Browse Album
- Browse Artist
- Make the last song in the shuffled order pretend to be the second-to-last song, then listen to it all the way through

On an almost unrelated note, I don't think I'll be able to get OWY1U back up by November. So my current goal is March 25, since that's a year after I dreamed the apocalypse would be in September, and in the dream, I thought it was exactly a year until then.

Wow.

Now I'm thinking about making a Super Mario World hack (maybe even more than one) where the Mario graphics are changed to Enya or Sarah McLachlan or somebody and it plays their songs. But it'll probably be a while, since I want to get OWY1U back up first, and even if I manage to do that before the apocalypse I still have to find all of those custom blocks and figure out how to insert them into a SMW ROM.

Repost (you might not want to, though, since now I don't really think I'll go through with this)

The first day of school was pretty good. The only homework was two calculus problems (which still took a while for some reason, but whatthesailever)!

For my 200th LJ entry (my profile will say 201, but that's because I haven't deleted the welcome entry that's automatically made for new users), I decided to do something completely pointless: take the first word from my first post, the second word from my second post, the third word from my third post, and so on, all the way up to this one. (If post #X has Y words, and Y is less than X, then the remainder of X ÷ Y is Z, and I use the Zth word instead, or the last if Z is zero.) And yes, this is a ripoff of 160 Seconds.

( So here goes )

( Context )

While doing this, I've noticed that I have quite a few posts that are exactly 48 words long, by the way. Coincidence?

On a less pointless note, I had to get my braces tightened again today. And this time, there are rubber bands holding the top and bottom braces together (which have to be changed every time I eat or brush my teeth, and also before I go to bed), so it probably won't pull a my wisdom teeth this time. :(

Um, hello. I'm 16. And even if I were 21 I wouldn't go to a bar.

Jepost to your rournal

So I got to wondering if Google has added PrtSc Land, Ours Will You 1-Up, or Waenya to the list of queries it would suggest if you typed in the first few letters of them yet. However, it seemed to not show any suggestions at all due to the page not loading right, so I was going to try typing it into the search box on the page that shows your search results, and thus I searched for "d" to get to said page. The results?



(that was going to be an animated GIF to make it look like an alarm was going off and flashing red, but Gickr was being a Crystal Light nose and had a 450px size limit, so you get two copies of the screenshot, one with a red tinge)

So apparently, Google thinks RICKROLLING has something to do with the letter D.

What has this world come to?!
