my japanese coffee candy's got msg...

it's funny really; i bought the thing when i was shopping at the only azn market in downtown davis for miso; i had run outta mini snacks to keep my mouth busy while studying/while in my room, so i decided to give this a try... i was buying the thing cause i thought by the ingredients that it would taste like cola...(had stuff like caramel color, brown sugar, glucose syrup)... it turned out to taste slightly bitter; it wasn't until 1 day later that i actually realized that MAYBE... the candy wasn't cola-flavored, and maybe that it was coffee flavored; coffee flavored stuff is usually pretty fragrant, but it's got a sorta bittersweet feeling to it... which isn't bad, i do like coffee candy, i just wish the package could've said something about the flavor in plain english... maybe next time i'll just stick with the ginger candy i usually crave... (don't laugh; it's pretty sweet, and melts slowly, so very worthwhile; well, as long as ppl aren't sticking their head 1 inch in front of your face to catch a whiff of it)... as for the fact that it's got msg, don't worry, i'm not getting any headaches from it yet; i think stuff like this does have to somewhat do with the nocebo effect; the more you think negatively about it the more you just naturally make yourself get a headache over it...

the play of the day for wed was very nice... a fast break from mike james to set up paul pierce for a 1-handed dunk...

impressive... hammerhead rhythm station is now one of the top 20 downloads at SMM.com... that's the drum software i use... i do have to give the guys credit; granted, for me, since i wasn't as much into sheet music, it's harder to create loops that i like, but they're more realistic than any other program you can get right now(screw .midi; that crap format; .wav all the way)... i need to work on my song again... and soon, if i'm ever gonna write my 2nd song and finish by end of winter quarter...

ok i'm out... peace... til another day arises... wanna stay on longer, but i need to finish my o-chem lab writeups...(it's past midnight on thursday morning)
