I watched this amazing video today. It is too good not to share.
Sherlock is stuck in 221b. He's bored. Of course.

The video uses footage from the BBC Sherlock Series and music from Tangled (specifically "When Will My Life Begin.")
I love him 'painting' the walls. I love him reading the books. I love him taking a climb.
I think I'm becoming obsessed with Benedict Cumberbatch's character.
However, I don't think Sherlock would ever be that interested in anything vaguely related to the solar system.

A Charlie Brown Christmas
A classic Christmas song for jazz piano (and often voice), Vince Guaraldi's "Christmas Time is Here" is one of my favourite relaxing pieces to improvise around on the piano. A gorgeous instrumental version of the piece can be found at the following link.

Study Music and Exam Finals
You know it's exam week for us students when you see us retreating into our homes, sticking the CD into the CD player, creating playlists with our Youtube account or on our Windows Media Player titled 'study music,' sitting outside with our textbooks and pens and papers with headphones practically permanently glued to our ears.
Music helps me study, and I know for a lot of other people, it helps them study as well. The question is, why? There is both value in music and silence, and it would be an absolute shame to think that silence is not as important as music because it is at the very least equally important. Muisc, however, provides something that silence does not. It fills in the parts of your brain that would have gotten filled in with junk thoughts, with trash distractions, with oh-wow-it's-really-hot-this-summer and I-wonder-what's-for-dinner-tonight, which are all valuable thoughts, but not necessarily the best sort of thoughts that you want to have during focused study time. Music, to me, when it's background study music, really puts everything in focus. It keeps your mind from wandering off to trivial things, and keeps you focused. It sets you free to delve deeper and deeper into your subject without getting too far off track.
And it's a stress reliever. Which we all need during exam week, of course.

5 cm per second
Akari Shinohara: Hey... They say it's five centimeters per second.
Takaki Toono: What do you mean?
Akari Shinohara: The speed at which the sakura blossom petals fall... Five centimeters per second.
Those are the first lines of the amazing animated film "Five Centimeters per Second" directed by Makoto Shinkai. It's a heart warming story with incredible animation and beautiful music, too!
I strongly suggest that you watch the film.
Here's the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxKn5AwOTis
