'Keep Holding On'
I've had a good day today, insanely busy day at work (Christmas is approaching indeed) and then racing off on 3 hour round trip drive to meet harpisan for dinner. Totally worth it. Love that girl to pieces. This trip was organised highly uncharacteristically at midnight last night, and texts today...
Actually work, Christmas shopping and driving an insane amount have been my life for the past few days.
Oh, and flailing/fangirling over one Darren Criss. Which is what the remainder of this post will be.
Fanfiction, videos, music, Glee, you name it I've been reading/listening to it over the past few days. Helped along by pebblegosling's need to link me to things on fb. Wheeee!
The most recent was this video of one of his song 'The Muse' adapted for harp. So beautiful.
My new go-to relax song. Honestly.
His reaction was possibly the most adorable thing I've seen him do. And that's saying a LOT.
LOOK! JUST LOOK AT THE ADORABLENESS!
*calms down*
Also this. The face, why the face? XD (and Katy Perry what are you wearing?!)
Had enough of me yet? Muahahaha. Alright. Just one more, promise.
He's little (ok so maybe a bit older than me when this was taken. SHUSH). And has a cello. And no curly hair... which makes me sad. XD
I lied.
*swoon*
I do believe pebblegosling said it best, as she so often does.
"Recipe for a Darren Criss: Take one reasonably awesome person. Add 20% more awesomeness. Mix with 100% musical juice. Insert essence of Gryffindor. Heap on nerd spice. Serve with a side of glee cupcakes."
And now I am off. Goodnight.

PS. Listening to this harpist's other stuff is making me so so so happy <3
I actually have chills running down my spine now. Wow.

tbh I can never recognise Katy Perry -- I know the name, and people say HEY THAT'S KATY PERRY and I'm WHAT! WHO! IS THIS IMPORTANT! LET ME GET BACK TO MY BOOK RAWR. azu delights in being clueless about modern musicians. it is an endless source of amusement for friends and who am i to deny them their snark.
*puts the harp on loop* cheerio! have a good weekend.
no subject
Haha really? Tbh, I'm not a fan of hers ...
It's half over, but it's been good so far!
no subject
I'm not a fan either. I haven't heard enough of her music to tell if she has a good singing voice. o.o
Holidays make all weekends better. (:
no subject
Hah. I think it says it all that she ruined her own song when Darren performed it (hence the link there - he sang on of her songs on Glee, and then live at the Trevor Project concert) by being completely out of tune XD
I never have much respect for artists who can't perform live...
They do. =D
no subject
hee. Lady Gaga, despite the awful music, has a beautiful singing voice. I tend not to see concerts live (difficulties with crowds), but there's a few musicians who should only be heard live, e.g. Damien Rice. (Oh no, I have his music stuck in my head now. I blame you entirely!)
no subject
She has an amazing voice. I heard her sing a jazz thing once and was like WHOA! ... Why must you waste your talent on such horrible music? :P
(I will happily take the blame for that)

I hope you enjoyed your dinner!
no subject
It was so worth it :)
no subject
*SWOOOOOOOOOOON* I hope I get him or Christmas ;)
no subject
*grins* I knew you'd flail along with me.
no subject
HAHAHA YES YES YES <33333
no subject
So glad you got what I was doing there ;)

...He...plays the cello...I.....CLONE!!! It's official. He is me + man bits and + 20% added awesomeness.
Also - I fell asleep last night. For that, I apologise. XD
no subject
... He is. He just IS.
(still freaks me out as much as it does you considering the way I flail...)
Apparently he is one of those ridiculously annoying people who can/have played at least 6 different instruments fairly competetently.
I thought I'd already flailed to you over that pic I found accidentally though XD XD XD
HAHAHHAHAA
Smooth. So smooth. (I was up until 4am, couldn't sleep. why, brain, why)
no subject
Yeah, I've heard that.
Nope! I would've remembered. XD
Super smooth. Like butter.
no subject
XD It was snuggle_monster I flailed to, that's right. She practically had a fit. Epic.
Heh.
no subject
XD Well, as she said...Cellos are SEXY. ;)
no subject
HAHAHAHAHA
Hell, not going to disagree there.
especially in the hands of a certain guyno subject
Not bias at all.:Pno subject
Also, harp video: pretty.
HARPISAN APPEARS!
The mini jam session made me so happy - so glad he's found an instrument he likes... even if it leads to him trying to bust our ears XD
She does mostly Disney stuff. This was so awesome.
