Where I Rant and Play

For the first time EVER, I'm watching the Star Wars movies.

I'm just... Wow. It all makes sense, now. I finally get all of those jokes that people would make. I haven't gotten to the wookies and Luke and Leia and all of that, but... Just, wow. I have decided that Darth Vader is my character-idol. All evil characters should be like him. I mean, he's twisted, good-meaning, powerful, and most of all, sexy. ((I have horrible taste in men, I know.)) But, I don't get why Anikin had that weird side-rat tail like Obi Wan did. Is it a Padawan thing? Fwah, I'll have to look it up.

I think that, between reading Dune and watching Star Wars/Star Trek, I'm finally a real nerd. It's such a proud moment, knowing that you have your own society totally apart from the masses that has, in its own way, has its own masses.

It's been really weird, having Kevin home all day, every day. He just does not shut up. He's been nicer to me, but he's taking out all of his fury on my mom, which in turn makes them hit on each other. There's been some real 'WTF' moments. How can giggling and teasing go to 'YOU BROKE MY THUMB, YOU BASTARD' in moments? It's been... Interesting. I think my parents are getting along, finally.

It's the opening of the Ren Fest today, and I'm really sad. Everyone went and didn't invite me. Really, it's fine, I'll just get Sarah, Cassie and Julia together and we can all go and make stupidity together when I get home. Everyone who went without me is getting what they deserve, though: it's rainy and below 60; as far as any Michigander is concerned, that is horrible weather for anything but a football game.

I'm not excited about going to Hawaii. It's honestly not that exciting. Hopefully it'll be better then expected, seeing as we're goign to a different island and all.

I have so much homework to do, it's not even funny. ;;-;; I'm going to go get to work on it.

No ToDo List?

I don't even have a to do list this week. Or rather, the stuff I have to do is so small, it doesn't really matter if i really do it or not. I guess I do need to gather things up for the garage sale next weekend, though, take the cans to recycling, and trade in all of the old video games that I don't play anymore. Which... all involves making money. I've been hoarding my money lately. I have this irresistible urge not to spend it. Ive already messed that up; I pre ordered The Sims 3, which is 50$ out of the wallet on June 9th. >.> That's something well worth it, though! it has no loading screens (or almost none), and I can get it for Mac!

It feels so good to have state festival over with! God, how I hated that thing. It wasn't worth the trouble me and my mom put in for it. But, the band did good and mow band class will go by SO much easier. >.> We'll probably sit and do nothing all week, which is fine, cause I have it first thing in the morning.

I've got my homework for the weekend done! ...Wait, I lied. I still have to edit that poem for HAL. anyways! We're going to Ruby Tuesday's in a few hours. The last five episodes of Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends is on then, I hate to miss them! I love that show so much. But I'll probably just find them online next week and watch them then. It just won't be the same! Oh, well. I'll get over it eventually.

It's really weird hearing lawnmowers outside, and having the windows open! After 8 months of winder, spring is so weird. I want to just go outside and roll on the green grass under the budding flowers! I dont think I will, though. my neighbors are obnoxious, and their children are brats. We've almost called the police twice because their children were throwing a temper tantrum that sounded like someone was dying. Needless to say, the outdoors is no longer enjoyable, neither is having the window open.

I have all of this crap that I need to color, but I don't want to color ay of it AT ALL. Scanning them would be a good idea, though, just so I can mess around with them on the computer. There's four pictures in all: I have a lolita picture, of a lolita holding a wilting rose with a kodona in the moon looking at her with longing. There's two AiW/TtLG pictures, one with Alice standing on a tea cup, holding a white rabbit toy, with the mad hatter sitting on her head, the dormouse sitting on his coattails, while on the hatters lap, he balances a table with broken legs, accidentally pouring all of the tea out of the teapot while watching Alice, with the march hare drinking tea on his foot; in the background is the card soldiers, the Queen of Hearts, the Cheshire Cat and the caterpillar in a hedge maze, while in the distance, the chess board forest pans out with a pawn and a knight fortress. It's surprisingly not cluttered. the other picture is mostly a more Gothic AiW (think the Looking Glass Wars), with a demented Alice sitting on the Queen of Heart's throne on top of the throne is the Cheshire Cat with the mad hatter sitting on a broken teacup to her left, smiling manically; to her right is the march hare,looking deranges, behind him an evil looking caterpillar smoking a pipe. The background is a large broken pocket watch. Then there's a picture of PHD, with Abel, Rei, Chiyo, Cain and a corpse (possible Chiyo) in ascending order. I like the PHD picture the best, because it's streamlined and simplistic, and the composition is nice.

I haven't actually made any progress in re-writing PHD, though. It's been almost a week since I've touched it.

I've been listening to a lot of Perfume lately I'd have to say Inryoku (Gravitation) is my favorite so far, cause it's catchy with some really cool 64-bit sound effects thrown in that remind me of the original Game Boy.

I going through an Imogen Heap stage in music again. its weird, because I'm going through PHD again, and fleshing out background and characters, and Blue October doesn't seem to fit- heap does. I'm not sure what to think of that, so for now I'm not thinking anything of it.

I'm going to be SO BUSY this weekend, by Gaia and Terra. It's a little ridiculous. My grandpa's coming down for the first time in two years, which will be nice for a change, since I'm sick and tired of going up north (which I feel bad for saying, because Papa needs the help. but... CAR RIDES. D:< ). so we're taking him out to dinner, and to the school district's art show, which I have stuff in. HA. Take that, Petzold. I'm NOT too conceited to get into an art show. And I need to finish my chores, two sewing projects, color two art stuffs for the interwebs, and study so I don't get my ass kicked for being stupid. Oh! And, Ali's birthday party is on Sunday, and I have to make her present still... I just today went shopping for supplies~ I'm making her Totoro from My Neighbor Totoro. It's gonna be fairly simple, but but time consuming because I've never done anything of the sort. If I don't get that done, I have some really cute necklaces that I've made; I could give her one of those and a sketchpad, I guess. But... That wouldn't be as awesome.

Sara invited me to play dodge ball with her youth group tomorrow, which sounds really fun. but I have tests on Friday, and cant afford not to study. It sucks, because every time she invites me to something, I'm actually busy, and not just making crap up. I feel so bad, cause I'm always a bitch at school; she must think I'm avoiding her. D: I'll have to have her offer for a sleepover sometime. We could watch Totoro~ <3

I'm getting a little aggravated with Megan, though. It's hard to explain... I ink'd my picture for the art trade with Aia! It's so cute! Pandas! And cookies! And JUICE BOXES~ I've started wearing rings since spring break. when I take them ff at night, I feel naked. I'm color clashing today! Pink, blue and green in their brightest.

Yep.

My dog came out of surgery okay, and that's all I really have to report. I need to finish my cross stitching, and finish my homework. I'm gonna try and get it together enough to sew a MA Bat Mini Hat,but I might just make into a regular mini hat so i can wear it all year.

Ive been finding out how awesome the people i know are. Ive been thinking about enrolling in a Catholic private school, if only because the curriculum would suck less. There's been talk of moving to the south, where its always warm. There's also been talk of moving farther north, with my grandpa and going on a mission trip to Guatemala, but niter of those are going to happen. I'm getting my license around June, so then I'll be able to get a job to pay for all the things I want over the summer. Of course, I'll be on less, but it'd probably be good for me. My eyes are bad enough as it is without staring at a screen all day.

Its been one of those weeks that Monday feels like Friday and Friday feels like Tuesday: both insufferably long and staggeringly short.

Hiya~

Well, I'm reactivating this account. Or rather, I deleted all of my old incredibly emo entries and I'm going to try and take up blogging, as well as become active in the LJ EGL community. Welcome me, please~

Today was my first day back from spring break. It seems like everyone either had a great time, or they would have had a good time but they got sick and that ruined it. Which makes me proud, because I got sick and still enjoyed Florida~ I got this huge assignment in US History, and it's really dumb. Its on things that we covered LAST unit, so it's totally not going to help us at this point, but whatever. It's a PowerPoint, and PowerPoints are easy. And then I still have my Great Gatsby/Of Mice and Men American Dream Essay Due this week, which is almost done, but not quite. I'm going to try finishing it tonight.

New House MD, Big Bang Theory, and Two and a Half Men is on tonight. Those shows make me so happy~

Has anyone heard The Decemberists new CD yet? Red got me hooked by showing me The Mariners Revenge Song on their old album, but I almost like this album more. You should give it a listen. The Crane Wife kind of a story-album, where the songs in succession tell something of a story. Its set in WWII, in Japan and Northern USA, and the vocals are amazing. <3 You Won't Feel The Drowning (The Island, Part 3),Yankee Bayonet (I Will Be Home Then), and Shankill Butchers are my favorites.

I'm so excited about the new group roleplay! I'm thinking of naming blondie something really, really humiliating- what's the worst name that you can think of for a guy to have? Suggestions so far are Moonchild and Nancy.
