So I've been sick. Not really sick, but I felt like shit anyway. I had a pretty high fever and my head felt like someone opened up my noggin, dumped a ton of bricks in there and put a stereo filled with Rammstein music in there to play nonstop 24/7. I mean, don't get me wrong, Rammstein are pretty cool (I think, anyway. I'm pretty open about music--uhh, well, for the most part. I'm not so open about this thing called "country"--except for Taylor Swift because she's cute and her music is more pop than country, really) but listening to that for forever is like hell. Not that I was listening to Rammstein for forever, because that was just a metaphor. But anyway, I felt like shit. No fever anymore, my coughing hasn't been so bad, thank god, and I only have a mildly stuffy nose. At least it's not REALLY STUFFY and/or REALLY RUNNY like it usually is. Gotta think on the positive!!

But I think I got my mom sick. While I was drifting between sleeping and Not Sleeping (while watching Jimmy Fallon, which pisses me off because Elijah Woods was on last night and I LOVE watching him on talk shows! He's so cute and nice and just enjoyable to watch. He always leaves a smile on my face after, too!) I heard her coughing. I hope she feels better ♥


Also, this Jay (from 2PM) business is ridiculous. I've never liked the Korean netizens, hiding behind their anonymity on the internet. Fucking cowards. I wonder what they're like if the internet just suddenly reveals who they really are. Jesus. And now a lot of them are feeling remorseful, too, which is so stupid and hypocritical of them. Agh. I hate people like that. Anyway, I believe in karma and definitely what they're doing will come around to them. -____-


Anyway, I've been itching to do some art. My hands have basically done nothing artsy the past 3 days. I've never been so passionate about art as I am now. Haha, it's kinda of ridiculous, considering how art-phobic I used to be before. I can't wait to start applying for art school <3



Well I guess I'll go now. Only two of my teachers have responded to my e-mail about make-up work. Actually both of those I can't even do. D: No other way to do it than to come REALLY RIDICULOUSLY EARLY tomorrow...ugh. I guess there's always English.

SOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITEDDDDD

The slasher in me cries in mortification at the IMMINENT ARTHUR/GWEN but then... well, we all know Gwen is going to run away with Lancelot in the end, anyway, so. 8D

I like Gwen though but I like Merlin/Arthur more so I'm kinda torn. BUT ANYWAY I AM STILL SO SO EXCITED.

Also I think one of the guests in this new season was a pirate in Pirate's of the Caribbean or something. Um. Yeah, I don't know. The one with the feathers and all the black? Well, he looks familiar...



In other news... today is the last day of Labor Day Weekend. :[ It was good while it lasted.

Mostly because I went and saw Paolo Nutini live!! :D


(Excuse the shitty picture. Like an idiot, I forgot to bring my camera...because I forgot this wasn't at Oni-Con or something and they [well, at least Paolo does] allow flash photography and recording. Oh well D:)

( Cue the ranting here... )

Anyway, I've got some Economics homework left to do. Bye :D

Pretty obvious I've been neglecting my LJ since, uhh, early on in junior year, which isn't even that long ago, but still. Since it's about to be my senior year, I'm going to start writing again in this thing! Just to, you know, chronicle all the mishaps and high-blood inducing ( blahblahblah tl;dr )
ALSO!!


I kind of want to make this/eat it. Am I weird?

So I'm awake right now because I've been procrastinating on the research paper I was supposed to do in English. ;P Friday, I ended up napping and then drawing all night. Saturday, I ended up waking up late then watching Fight Club and eating and then going to Doreen's house to get ready for the Masquerade Ball (I will post pictures later, of course!)... stayed there 'til midnight, and then I went to my aunt's house and attempted to play Infinite Undiscovery when I was effing dead-tired from all the dancing at the Ball. D: And then today, Sunday (although officially it's Monday, but whatever), my aunt took me to watch Watchmen!

Alright, that movie. It confused me a lot. Mostly because my mind kept wandering off to my research paper that I hadn't started on (at the time. I'm done now, of course ;P). And then there was Dr. Manhattan's penis which I thought was a fluke at first, and then as the movie went on there was more and more of it! D: And then there was even more naked and then sexing. The scenes of sexing then led me to the train thought of babies, which then led to maybe they won't have babies!, to oh, what if she's infertile?!, and then, inevitably, to in vitro fertilization, the topic of my research paper. D:

But anyway.
I liked the movie, though, and after a little break that lasted an hour from my research paper going through the Watchmen wikipedia, I don't feel so confused anymore. But I don't know. I suppose I'm a little disappointed in the ending, but I guess superhero stories have never gone that direction before and for that, I applaud them and if I kept thinking like that I guess I do kinda like it more.


ANYWAY! Wow. I have much more energy than I thought I would. This is actually kind of amazing! Man. But my eyes are getting blurry so maybe I should close my eyes. Just for a little bit...


OH! Also. The most recent episode of Skins featured practically 90% classical piano music, thanks to Debussy's genius, and I've gotten a CD of Debussy piano works which I have listened to the whole time I wrote my paper. I think it kinda helped me! And now I also have a sudden urge to watch Nodame Cantabile--maybe I'll go for the anime this time. But I do miss Ueno Juri!Nodame... hm. OKAY, seriously, time to close my eyes and

I went to Urban Outfitters the other week and omg, they had a LOLcat book!!



Broke as I was, I bought it. I do love the LOLcat. :D

Then I brought it to school and showed it around to a few friends and only a handful got it. The rest were like, "What the hell is this? Why is it all misspelled? And what the fuck is up with all the cats?!" :( It made me really sad! I mean, the LOLcat isn't that hard to understand. And isn't our generation supposed to be the ones who get internet humor best? (Or something like that?) Then again, I don't know, I'm probably just assuming everyone spends as much time on the internet as I do LOL.

But anyway, yeah. I've nothing to update about my life so far, not really. My aunt "kidnapped" me last weekend, so I wasn't able to go to my friend's birthday party. It was alright, though, I love hanging out with my aunt anyway :D She took me to Taken (as compensation, she said) and then we watched Shinobi on BLU-RAY(!!).

Joe Odagiri was pretty hot. :D And every time Yukie Nakama came on the screen, I kept referring to her as "Yankumi" and not her character's name, which I don't even remember now, by the way. Her character was so stupid. I hate these stupid Romeo-and-Juliet type of stories. :/ The fighting scenes were really good, though, I thought.

Anyway, I think I'm going to not punk out at 5 PM today, so I'm going to keep myself busy. I have to do some OSHA thing that's apparently for a grade! And if I fail this online assessment, I'm going to have to do it again and pay for it. :/ I think it's kind of stupid, and it probably won't be so stupid if they didn't have stupid audio on it where the reader person reads so slowly. Ugh.


EDIT;; OH GOD I JIZZED IN MY PANTS.



$5000... T____T

I abandoned my LJ again. It was finals and then Skins started and... I've been (quite lazily) looking for a job. Also there was some shitty shit going on a couple weeks ago, but I'm alright now!

( oh ho, life )

Anway, this entry is too long already so I'm going to stop. I still have some homework left to do. :x

Today, they were selling popcorn shrimp and I LOVE POPCORN SHRIMP, so I definitely, definitely had to have some. Upon arriving at the cash register, with my $1.70, my popcorn shrimp, and my little Powerade drink, the lunch lady tells me my popcorn shrimp is $1.80 and not a dollar. WTF it never used to be that much before!

But I probably went to the wrong line or something because the line next to the one I went to, sells the popcorn shrimp for only a dollar (well, it usually sells it for a dollar), and..yeah... UGH. I feel so cheated right now. :( (Even though it's been 3 hours since, haha) I mean, yeah, $1.80 isn't really that much but they don't even put that much popcorn shrimp in the little container thing! Such a rip off, ugh.

Well, I still got to have some though, thanks to my friend Connie. She's amazing! :D


But still. Wtf, school cafeteria. :(



In other news, it's my mom's birthday this Saturday!! AND OMFG I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO GET HER! She's been saying she wants the Wii Fit but obviously I can't buy or afford that... Ahhhh, stressing, stressing, stressing!

Also in other news, I really, really love FailBlog.

I am so screwed.

Also, that song "Still Alive" from that game called "Portal" is stuck in my head.

Also, I AM SO SCREWED!!!

Also, I finished Crackdown yay! And then I helped my uncle finish his game, although I wasn't too helpful with, um, one boss because I fell from the building and got lost. But I helped him finish!

But anyway, I think today I'm going to be really, really weird and out of it, as I usually am when I have no sleep...

Damn it, I am so screwed!! I should have read Huck Finn when I was in Colorado :(

But yeah...ugh... well, I'm off to go pray to God that I won't be killed today. From not doing any homework over the holidays. D:

I love making these lists. Also, in no particular order.

1) No more tardies to first period! (Wow, you know, I say that every year and I have really yet to go through with it 100%)
2) Actually do something about the impending doom that is called the SATs.
3) Stop procrastinating so much.
4) Clean my room and my bathroom every two weeks or so.
5) Stop spending so much money on a whim.
6) Start thinking about The Future some more and get rid of all the "maybes" in there.
7) Improve my art.
8) Get a job.
9) Become better friends with my little sister.
10) Talk to relatives more often, especially the ones in the Philippines.
11) Be nicer to my parents.
12) Be nicer and more patient with certain people who I will not name.
13) Get a license and stop being so lazy!
14) Be more productive!!
15) Stop being such a serious downer when in a super crabby mood. Or, actually, try to stop the stupid moodswinging that comes by so often because they are such a problem sometimes.
16) Be a better friend! (In general?)
17) GET OVER IT. COMPLETELY. COMPLETELY.


And I think that's it! Well, I don't know, I might edit that later, or something. But yes. :D

Happy New Year's to everybody! (I won't be making a post right on New Year's because I'll be too busy cleaning... OR PLAYING VIDEO GAMES AT MY UNCLE'S HOUSE :D)

I was watching the NTBC episode with Mitch Hewer from the past season and the guest captain obviously had a thing for him or something because she kept touching him and whispering at him and hugging him. Not that I could blame her, he's gorgeous and I'd probably be doing the same thing if I was in her place. :x

Anyway...

Oh. Right, the meme!


The rules are that for 8 days you have to post something that made you happy that day.

+ I think I did quite well during my History test. Yay! And we had a TAKS assessment, too, and I think I did amazing on that as well. Yay!

+ During English, a couple people from the yearbook committee came in to ask our class if anyone had any predictions for 2009. Someone said, "Britney will be back!" To which someone else said, "She's already back!" And then someone else (this is a "someone else" I would have never expected to say such a thing, actually) says, "Yeah! I really liked Circus. Actually, the music video was really enetertaining..." And then the yearbook people ask we have something other than Britney and no one does and apparently people from the previous classroom said something similar, too. But yeah. The mention of Britney just made me really happy, hahaha. I love Britney :D

+ I curled my hair today and several people complimented me on it :D Two of them being guys! I was so shocked!

+ This was actually the other day, but my friend Joe gave me Windows Vista!! I love Joe for life now.

+ I AM FINISHED WITH THAT DAMN PLANE FOR RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT!!! I've had to digitally paint? color? what-have-you, this Thomas Morse plane for my Research and Development class. Omfg. I've been working on it all year! Finally! I AM DONE!

+ I got a 95 on my Chemistry quiz the other day and a 98 on my Algebra II test from last month! Whooooo! (But on the down side, I'm not the highest grade in Algebra II anymore because I made lots of stupid mistakes on the test from a couple days back, which resulted in my 85 DDDD: RIP 98 average...)

+ I might be able to go to Oni-con tomorrow. YESSSS, SUGAR! AND DIO!

+ The Sims 2 Freetime just finished downloading an hour ago and now it's only an hour until The Sims 2 Apartment Life. Yeaaayuhhh.




Okay, I seriously need to work on my Christmas cards. Guhhh. And I have a Chemistry test tomorrow...!!! D:

The rules are that for 8 days you have to post something that made you happy that day.

+ I think I did pretty well on the Spanish quiz over ~Los Mandatos~ :D

+ Also, I think I did pretty well on the Chemistry quiz over synthesis and decomposition and single/double replacements and combustion equations!!

+ They played Adele's Chasing Pavements on the Announcements!!! I looove Adele so much, seriously, she's amazing. I "got" her album 19 last night and it was really good! So far, Chasing Pavements and Cold Shoulder are my favorites. So far. ;P

+ I was not late to first period!!

+ After school, after finding out I didn't have a ride home, I was ready to just walk home but then my friend Suzi called me up and said she was in the school! See, she had graduated last year and goes to college in another city and so I miss her, you know? So I met up with her and my other friend, Jerome, who came back with her and we went into the Science Club Social where people were playing videogames and someone was playing guitar and there was pizza and soda and it was great. :D I had fun!

+ I got Windows Vista from my buddy Joe. He is so amazing. :D

+ I was wearing my Sex Pot shirt today because it's actually quite warm and it says "fuck off" on it and I wasn't caught at all today!



So yeah!

I'm going to go and do my Christmas card thing now, and then watching Donnie Darko while doing my History review. :D

Having fun with my aunt's baby :D
He is soooooooooooooooooo cute!! And I loooove how babies smell omfg. BABIES ♥ ♥

I feel bad for laughing at him on the last frame, though. For some reason he really likes standing up right now and I accidentally let my grip slip a little bit so that he was sitting down, thus the crying face.

But then I played the One Missed Call (JAPANESE VER.!!) ringtone and he stopped. I have no idea why he really likes that song. It's so frickin creepy! But uhh, well, it was some kinda kid's show song thing or something originally, wasn't it? If my memory of the first movie serves right...


Anyway,I also did these baby exercises with him! I put him on my legs and lift him up. It's really fun and he liked it a lot but then my legs got tired and then he wanted to "stand up," so I let him and then my arms got tired and so I handed him over to my mom. And I guess he's hungry or something again 'cos he's crying D:

Oh, babies D:

WITH JUST ALMOST EVERYTHING HERE

ARKANSAS, why the HELL are you banning gay couples from having kids? WTF?
Also, ARIZONA, why are you banning gay marriage? OMG. SAME TO YOU, CALIFORNIA D:< ALSO FLORIDA!! D:< !!
ALSO, I am disappointed in COLORADO with the "NO" on "END AFFIRMATIVE ACTION." But at least Nebraska said "YES" :)

And yikes, Doctor-assisted suicide... and abortion... well those are just iffy issues. D:

But um. Abortion Limits. If it's "no" then does that mean that if a woman was raped and wants to get an abortion, does that mean she can't have an abortion? D: It's late. Also, I need to do homework JSDOFIJSOFIJSF

HELL YEAH!!

I took a nap at 5 and I woke up just in time for the "BARACK OBAMA ELECTED AS PRESIDENT" banner to show up on my TV screen :D

Such a momentous occasion!!!
(Suck it, nutjob republican neighbor! hurhur. 'Cos seriously, when she and my step-dad started debating I wanted to hit her over the head with my refrigerator.)

Anyway, so I listened to McCain's speech, too, and he was so gracious! I really liked his speech. The supporters were assholes, though, because when Obama got mentioned, they started booing. But in Obama's speech, when he mentioned McCain, his supporters were clapping. Where did your class go, McCain-supporters? :/

ALSO WOOHOO FOR FLORIDA GOING BLUE! I KNEW YOU WERE GOING TO GO BLUE, I KNEW IT!!




Oh, and also! A little story.



Halloween night, I went trick-or-treating and I find this McCain-Palin sign right in the middle of the road... I thought it's rude that it's just lying in the middle of the street like that--although I'm not for McCain, you know? So I pick it up. And almost immediately, like it's some kind of magnet, I get yelled at VERBALLY ABUSED!! By a bunch of little kids yelling, "MCCAIN SUCKS OBAMA ROCKS! YOU SUCK! YOU FAIL AT LIFE!" D:

I was saddened. How could they jump to conclusions like that?! And also, they yelled at me with such ferocity, these little kids! D:

Also, this one house nearly denied me my candy (I mean, they were kinda joking I guess, but we all knew that the truth was that they weren't too keen on giving a McCain/Palin supporter candy... well. Not that I was one. But I did have that sign D:). But I told them I took the sign to vandalize it D: So then I got my candy. Though, I did vandalize it, though, later in the night. I admit that was childish of me haha but whatever :X My step-dad was happy when he saw it lulz




ANYWAY I can't wait to party tomorrow :D


OH! AND. Does anyone know if those Imeem Presidential Playlists are real? (There's a McCain one but I like Obama's more... 'cos it's "hipper"? Hahaha)

Okay, okay, I'm mostly excited because I finally finished this pick-up line drawing for my friend. I was originally supposed to make a shirt out of it but... D: Yeah, haha. I don't know where my iron-on stuff is at. So I'll just make her a shirt next time...

IN THE MEANTIME! Happy (early?) Halloween :D hehe




(Click for a bigger version!)


And I realize it's pretty messy but w/e... I thought it would be boring if it was just the two characters.



Aaaaanyway, I'm going to go and draw more pick-up line-related/inspired stuff hehe 8D I LOVE PICK-UP LINES SO EFFING MUCH, DAMN. (And also Illustrator. I love you Illustratoorrrrrr)

( I AM SO SICK. What follows the cut is a sickness rant. I just really need to vent, seriously. Maybe I should watch Boondocks Saints again. Or something equally as action-packed and bloody. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... OMG BLADE OF THE IMMORTAL?!?! ) Holy crap that was long.

So I'm sick again, randomly, and this time with strep-throat. UGH. I wish I had bronchitis or a fever or something else. Because this stupid thing...... I can't eat all this mandarin oranges my step-dad bought me!!

And my mom made chicken curry the other day and it smells SO GOOD and I really want to eat some! Well, I ate some yesterday but I could barely taste it and it made my nasty throat feel even nastier (I suspect it was all the spices).

But hey, on the bright side, I can see Penelope again and RIP IT! then make a billion .gifs of James McAvoy just being generally hot. He does this thing where he licks his lips and then looks confused and it's SO CUTE GAH JSDOIFJSIJ

Also I really love how his voice sounds like with an American accent. It's really boyish but then manly. Hahaha~
OK I will stop with the fangirling D:

But you know, I never realized how blue his eyes were :O




MMMM McAvoy :9

Thinking about the future makes me want to cry. I don't know what I'm going to take in college and I don't know what to strive for. Recently I've realized I'm really passionate with drawing and all that (I mean I always have been but it's just been a hobby) and I kind of want to do that for a living. Maybe an illustrator? And work as a masseuse on the side? But would that even pay bills? :(

I'm really scared. I haven't been serious about The Future at all... I've always thought: Ah, there's plenty of time left, still. I think, I can do this later, and I push it all back and back and back and now...I mean, there is still time left but I can feel the pressure starting to push in.

God help me. I don't want to muck it up...





...BUT ON THE BRIGHT SIDE!

My grandma got me a TABLET(!!!!) as a belated birthday present! I LOVE IT! It's the Wacom Bamboo Fun. I really wanted Intuos but that was way too over budget... and I think Bamboo is pretty good for my first tablet!

So yeah. Now I don't have to scan as much and coloring will be faster. :D!

But on the not-so-bright-but-still-kinda-bright side:
Now I have more reasons to procrastinate. :X Actually that's probably not that bright...erm.
Oh! And there's school tomorrow again D:

OMFG YES NO SCHOOL UNTIL MONDAY!!!!!!!!!!!

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

NOW I CAN WATCH ALL THESE MOVIES I'VE BEEN WANTING TO WATCH AND I CAN WATCH BOONDOCK SAINTS AGAIN AND I CAN WATCH DROP DEAD GORGEOUS AND I CAN WATCH AMERICAN BEAUTY AND I CAN WATCH RESERVOIR DOGS AND I CAN WATCH SE7EN AND I CAN WATCH--

...yeah.

OMG YES!!!!!!!! WHEEE :D

Crap, though. This probably means we'll have to make up for loss time. UGH.
BUT NO! I will be hopeful. I will be hopeful. Yes. NO SCHOOL YAY!!!

So I'm sick. Which means: 1) I can't get up and walk around without feeling nausea or a headache coming along. 2) The bed is my best friend. 3) So is the box of tissues right next to me and my bottled water. 4) Can't really do much.

And so, you know, I wanted to watch some 90s movies because I seriously looove 90s teen movies. LIKE SHE'S ALL THAT, omg, I don't know why I love that movie so much but I do. But anyways, so I watched 10 Things I Hate About You--you know, with Heath Ledger and Julia Stiles--and zomfgggg. Sry She's All That, but you've been bumped down! I mean, I've watched 10 Things before but like. Not really in its entirety? I think I only watched the beginning or something. I don't really remember...

( Anyways... )


So yeah.
Now.
I'm on a hunt for some other good 90s movies. Or late 80s! YEAH. I kind of feel like watching Ferris Bueller's Day Off again. Man, I love that movie. I don't really know why, either, hahaha.

OMG NO WAIT. I think. I'm going to go watch a Kevin Smith movie. WITH JAY AND SILENT BOB IN IT! Hmmmm... Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back? 8D
