SEE INGREDIENTS BELOW FLAP On iTunes: Frank Sinatra sings Christmas carols! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA. Mentally, I feel insane right now. Physically, I'm still sick and quite tired and a little woozy. This morning I kind of relapsed.. it was bad. I feel a little better now, but I'll have to watch it. I know exactly why, though, heh. Last night I went to see my friend perform in Biloxi Blues - he was Eugene, the lead, and I was so darn proud of him. The problem was that I had an essay to finish by midnight and by the time I got out of the play, it was 11:10. So I started to hobble back to my dorm. Hobble because I was in these fantastic heels, and as much as I love them, I'm not quite graceful when it comes to running in heels. So after a second I thought, "Fuck this," took the shoes off, and hauled ass back muttering "Every minute counts, every minute counts!" It was cold out, and I was barefoot, and with a cold, that was stupid. But I did finish my essay with ten minutes to spare, so it was most definitely worth it. And the play was worth it, too. Good times. I have an Italian quiz to study for tomorrow and I've got a presentation on that short story I wrote for my Lit class to work on for Friday. Friday, mother of God, I need to get it together. >_<;; Okay, when you call somebody and you get their voice mail, you leave a message. Damn it, you just do it! It aggravates me so much when a person takes the time to call but can't take another five seconds to say, "Hey, call me back." Especially when I leave the weirdest damn messages on other people's phones. It's a friggin' art form, man. Come on! >_>;; Ahem. I'll simmer now.

What a loverly bunch of coconuts! On iTunes: Some kind of R&B on my roomie's radio. Last night me, Jen, and Juan went to see Trainspotting at the SLB for the first time ever. I loved it. I think I need to own it now. Has anybody else seen it? I think it's kind of like The Road Warrior or Rocky Horror in that it feels like its following is a little more underground. But it's awesome. We're going to see Collateral today at 6-ish, which I'm also looking forward to, since I really liked that movie, as well. So good times, good times. I'm still sick, but yesterday was much better. And today feels like it might go along the same lines. Hopefully. And Tony, I didn't make that "bleergh" noise, heh. But I wanted to. It's a funny noise. About that Julian story which has no title because I've never seriously thought about it like that. (o_o;;) I think that I'm going to type up a little bit of it and post it here or at OB, just for amusement purposes. If people like it enough, then I'll keep typing it up. But in the end, it's just something I do for fun. There shouldn't be any pressure for me to do something that I enjoy, and if it feels like it's sliding that way, then I'm going to take a break. So thems the breaks, people. I know you all will hardly be able to sit still, you'll be so eagerly anticipating each and ever word, but please, try to contain yourselves. And Charlie, please, some decency! >_>; Ahem. I should do homework. Or typing. Yeah.

Wait for the answers to fall from the sky. On iTunes: "Walking By" by Something Corporate Something struck me as funny today. I'm usually a very independent person. Meaning, I don't really like getting help from others. I'd much rather figure something out and do it on my own then have somebody pitch in or do it for me. I am a control freak, and I am not ashamed. Lately I think I've been pretty good about relaxing, but the traits are still there, nevertheless. However! I have the tendency to revert back to being a child when I'm sick. I think maybe everybody does because we all like that special attention every once and a while. I know that when I'm sick, I get cranky very, very easily and when things don't go my way then it all goes to hell. It's also the only time I like it when people ask, "What's wrong? Are you all right?" No, no I"m not, I'm sick, can't you tell, look how miserable I am! "Aww, you poor thing." Yes, that's right, pamper me, bitch. Ahem. >_>;; Yesterday was a kind of yucky day. I took a two hour nap and that did wonders, though. I think that I should probably do that again today, seeing as my head is getting all woozy. But we'll see. I really need to clean my room and work on some homework so I'm not doing it all Sunday. That would be bad. I had my Lit exam today, and I think it went pretty well. Another A, definitely. English rocks my socks. ^__^ ....that's about it. If you haven't read the newest Hero chapter yet, then you should do that now. Zidargh and Shin are up and it looks like it's going to be another really awesome chapter. So go forth! Bleergh.

Berry Berry Kix, Yo. On iTunes: "San Francisco" by Secondhand Jive The good news is that although I still have that Lit2020 test tomorrow, the paper isn't due until Sunday at midnight. I wasn't in any real trouble either way, but it definitely takes a little more pressure off my shoulders, which is nice. Now I can spend plenty of time on each and make sure I get those A's, heh. The other good news is that there is no class today, thanks to veterans everywhere. You guys rock my socks. The bad news is that I woke up at 7:30 this morning - earlier than I've woken up all semester long - because I couldn't breathe. Yes, that's right folks, I'm sick. And while I've managed to keep a pretty good mood going right now, it's probably not going to last and I'll start bitching soon. Trust me, if you think PMS is bad, be around me when I'm ill. "Pleasant" is not quite the word. More like "Fucking Psycho Bitch." You'll wish you were dead. I'm hoping to go play some video games today before sitting down and reading for my lit exam. Jen was supposed to wake up at noon (since nobody has class today), but I haven't gotten a call yet. Naturally, I left her a message, complete with her middle name. You know it's business when you middle name somebody. lol This may sound kind of weird, but I'm looking forward to writing my lit paper. And I'm looking forward to the exam. There are other people in my class who didn't do well on the last one, especially the paper, and so they've been asking all sorts of random questions for the past week. Frankly, they baffle me. This class is not hard. I guess my superior knowledge strikes again. Ha ha ha! On a side note, I guess it's a good thing that I changed my major to English, heh. So I did at least one good thing this semester. Yeah, go me! Break it down! Hey. That's what I was going to do tonight. Go dancing. But now that I feel crappy, I don't know if that's going to fly. Damn, that is so disappointing. What great timing. I blame you, God! *shakes fist* Okay, I'm going to call my sister again. Being a whore is so much fun.

Where Are You Going To Run To Next? On iTunes: "Western Battle" by Seafood So points are awarded as follows: Karmilicious: 2 Everybody Else: None! (Better luck next time, Shin. =P) And now, so you know what the songs actually were: 1. And ah, when you work out where to draw the line Your guess is as good as mine. Coldplay, "God Put A Smile On Your Face" 2. Sounds like forks on a plate Blackboard scratched with hate Muse, "Micro Cuts" 3. The highway's jammed with broken heroes On a last chance power drive Bruce Springsteen, "Born To Run" 4. but the better part of me knows that waiting in the throws is on a par with reading with my eyes closed Incubus, "Agoraphobia" 5. I remember what you told me before you went out on your own: Sometimes to keep it together we got to leave it alone. The Eagles, "Wasted Time" I wasn't so bored yesterday that I wanted to spend forever putting up more than five sets of lyrics, heh, so that made it a little harder. My throat has been acting suspicious for the last couple days. Like I might be getting sick, but my body can't quite make up its mind yet. I guess I should just stock up on vitamin C to ward off any possibility of it happening. Meh. The good news is that I got to play Dynasty Warriors today for the first time in ages. Me and Jen played some PS2 in the SLB for a couple hours. It was glorious. I also finally got to try out some Mario Kart: Double Dash, so I don't feel like such a loser anymore. I've also been working on this story that first developed off of an RPG character that I created elsewhere. His name is Julian and he's one of my favoritest creations, but he wasn't getting a lot of play time in that RPG. So I decided to write a story about him just so I could write more with him. It's developed into this crazy alternate universe epic in my mind, and recently I've been thinking about typing it up and posting it somewhere. So I guess I'm asking: Should I? Pros: I can get my story out there and get feedback about different ideas, about how I write magic (cause there would be a lot of it), on character development, etc. Typing it up would also result in me adding a little more detail and changing certain parts that I've been meaning to change, add to, and take away from. Cons: I'm increasingly feeling like if I post something, it has to be this epic, spectacular thing and there's more of a focus on my writing style and grammar and structure rather than on the actual characters or fantasy ideas, which I really, really hate. And I'm afraid that if I do start posting this story, then I'll feel obligated to make it perfect, to post in a timely manner, to make it serious and professional and mature. As silly as it sounds, I'm constantly afraid that my writing isn't up to par and I tear myself up about it. I really don't want it to come to that. I don't want this story to become a chore. Does this make sense to anybody? Anyway, feedback would be great. While you all do that, I'm going to go catch up on my Lit2020 reading. >_>;;

For the Criminally Insane (this means you) On iTunes: "Island in the Sun" by Weezer I finally found the time to write a letter today, so Shim Shim Sharoo should expect one in the next month or so. Whenever the FSU post office decides to get off its lazy ass and, you know, do their job. Which reminds me. To the Overlady of Stickerdom: did you ever get that letter? >_>;; I'm really bored. I should read for my Lit class, since I haven't been and there are a few stories for me to catch up on and we have a test and essay due Friday. But that would be productive. It's only 6:05 pm right now and it's already getting dark. I'm still so thrown off by the time changes. So much for frolicking on the green in my scarf. It's a good thing you all can't see how cute I am right now or you'd all have massive heart failures and maybe even die. And gosh, that would be bad. So, because I am bored, I'm going to bring back the song lyric game. If you know who the band is, you get a point. If you know the name of the song, you get another point. So that's a possible two points for each set of lyrics. Still with me? Here are the lyrics: 1. And ah, when you work out where to draw the line Your guess is as good as mine. 2. Sounds like forks on a plate Blackboard scratched with hate 3. The highway's jammed with broken heroes On a last chance power drive 4. but the better part of me knows that waiting in the throws is on a par with reading with my eyes closed 5. I remember what you told me before you went out on your own: Sometimes to keep it together we got to leave it alone. Short and sweet, right? Now put your answers in the comment box, my darling duckies. Answers will come when I feel like it. ^_~

Procrastination Station! On iTunes: "Casual Sex" The Faint Our motto: Why the fuck would we have a motto? That takes effort, damn it. We don't have the kind of time to throw around doing things. What are you thinking?!

The World, as seen by midgets. On iTunes: "Escape" Muse Mmm, bread. So yesterday was a glorious day for Megan. The Noles stomped the Blue Devils 29-7, as it should be, and the lovely Tori was gracious enough to find out the Georgia score and text message it to me. Something like 55- a very small number, which was awesome. A grand day for football (even though ours was a noon game and it was fucking hot out there). After the game, I took a shower and chilled for a little before me, Jen, and Erin decided to go to the mall. And that turned out to be a blast. We all purchased a couple things, including some very handy, solid colored, long sleeved tees from The Gap. Yes, I fell in. But these things are perfect for wearing under regular t-shirts, so I feel that it was a perfectly successful business venture. We stopped off in the tiny, congested food court where everybody doesn't know your name and they hate you anyway to get some dinner and ended up sitting and chatting for much longer than necessary. Eventually we started shopping again and went to look for shoes. And I definitely bought some awesome black and white heels for $12. I'm very proud. The mall closes at 9, so we went back to Jen and Erin's room and tried on all our new things like the bunch of girls we are, and decided that we definitely had to go back out and do something. The idea of a movie popped out. Cue our friend Juan appearing around the corner. Eventually it was decided that the four of us would all go see Ray. At 11:45. We had some time to kill, so we wandered around, showing off how hot we were, before heading over to my dorm to put some of my stuff away. That, and I wanted to get a matching purse (>_<;;). Erin hadn't ever seen my room before, either, so it was a way to kill not one, not two, but three birds with one stone. Except my roommate was already in and sleeping. At 10:30. On a Saturday night. *awkward silence* Moving on. Dropped stuff off, got other stuff, headed back to Deviney. We picked up Juan and went to see our movie. Ray is unbelievably awesome. For those who aren't familiar with it, it's the film about Ray Charles, with Jamie Foxx as the man. I know a lot of people aren't fond of Jamie Foxx, but I think that this is the best role he's ever done. The movie was beautiful, the soundtrack was awesome (but that goes without saying), and despite the fact that it is longer than hell, it was a lot of fun. Which leaves me to today, a.k.a. The Day Where I Do Nothing But Homework And Cry Like A Little Baby. I've made myself a to-do list. I don't think it'll be that bad, actually, but I am a little nervous about my Italian test tomorrow. I want to do really well on it, so I need to devote a lot of time studying for it. Maybe I'll eat sometime today, too. Le sigh. Oh! Go see Solo's Movie Lists because teh are the w00t. And stuff.

[/end psychotic melodrama] On iTunes: "Buffalo Soldier" Bob Marley & The Wailers. Last night it went from slightly warm to freakishly cold in record time. Okay, so it's not like it's snowing outside, but considering that it's been shorts and sleeves weather for a VERY long while, for it to turn around in a couple hours and require me to wear an actual sweater ... well, that's a miracle. A miracle, I say! Anyway, I'm excited. It's gorgeous out, it's Homecoming Weekened, and although I will never understand the point of homecoming, it still means that I'm going to get a lot of cool free stuff this weekend. Including a football game. Whee! I do have a lot of homework to do, though. I have to finish some ridiculous art worksheet, do some reading, do a "rough draft" for my Lit paper, and study my ass off for my Italian test Monday. All in all, I'll be a very busy girl. Now, as cute as my little welcome picture is, I'm getting tired of all the white. I need some color here. I need change. So, expect it. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon. =P Bob Marley is so freaking cool. I'm feeling the sudden urge to go outside and just sway.

Funny how some guys don't understand NO the first time around and the same fucking problem keeps coming back and I'm really just sick and tired of being the ice cold heartless bitch who leads these schmucks on. On iTunes: The sound of men screaming bloody murder everywhere as I castrate them all.
