A couple people told me they thought I was five years younger than I am. I chose to take it as a compliment.

According to a friend of mine, my mic makes it sound like I'm 15 years old, lol.  Though, my voice does still occasionally fluctuate...a lot.
That would never happen to me.  I sound like the white version of James Earl Jones.  I remember one time when I was having a Skype session with a client and his boss walked in because she thought he was watching Star Wars.

I keep startling my manager because my voice fluctuates so much in the mornings, she thinks there's two or more people behind the counter when it's just me. My enormous vocal range (EDIT: just tested it to back up my bragging and it's a little over three and a half octaves) and tendency towards trolling doesn't help.

Aye, I can alter my voice a fair bit, as well.  The only person that'd be even semi-well known that's got a somewhat close facsimile of my voice would be Warrel Dane when he's off stage, but my normal voice is a bit higher than his in pitch.

While a lot of people say my voice is deep (still don't hear it I tend to fluctuate depending on what I'm doing mostly when I'm singing since that takes up most of my time.

My voice has a lot of fluctuation, some of it intentional. I have roughly the same vocal range as David Michael Bennett, and when I need to get attention I just project in baritone.
Still can't think of a signature a year later.

Got back from SakuraCon. Things I went to while I was there:

- Both terrible fanfiction panels (I liked the Oldies But Goodies so much I decided to see The New Hotness too).
- Both Zap Brannigan comedy panels (both happened between other things I wanted to do, liked the first one enough to see what the other one was about)
- AMV theater, which I left for the manga library partway through because my poor ears were crying for mercy (I was too close to the speakers and there were no other seats open)
- Portal to Equestria
- Attack on Titan screening (first three English episodes- opening song was left alone, and lots of people sang along) and Q&A from studio people after
- Fashion show
- Dance
- Autographs- I got Chuck Huber, Hiroshi Nagahama, Leah Clark, Erik Kimerer, Erica Mendez,  and Yui Ishikawa.
- Taiko drum performance
- Blue Submarice No. 6 screening
- Vendors

EDIT: Aaaand my 10,000th post is about fascism, Plato, and gay sex. This is clearly a great accomplishment.

Got into an argument with a fundie Christian on deviantART.  A YEC who believes that God created marriage and that Harry Potter is witchcraft.  Also believes that women should be subservient to men (what a surprise).

I haven't had this much fun with an argument in years.

Mockery of ideas you don't comprehend or understand is the surest mark of unintelligence.

My roommate surprised me with a white hawaiian pizza when I got home, and I got validation at work.  Feels good :3

Today was my 23'd birthday, and I drank alcohol for the first time! I love mead!

I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.

Well, I've discovered I have a low alcohol tolerance, getting buzzed from half a pint of mead, but I seem to recover quickly too.

On the same subject, I'm so glad that there's a bar in town that specialized in cider and mead.

Wait...there's a bar that serves drinks other than pisswasser and god awful bullshit that noone but hardcore alcoholics can stomach?

I have finally received my ACT scores and I got an 18 which means I don't have to take the damn thing again.
