nyrgh last i spoke with that evil computer repair lady, stuff didn't look.. well.. good it's not just some computer wierdness, apparently my hard drive is shot and i need to get a new one ($200-something) which is not too much of a problem, i'd pay double that to just get my freaking files back.. again, i don't know if they'll be able to, she said they could "possibly" save them, and she didn't sound too all-fired optimistic or sympathetic about it. oh well. i guess i'm doomed to eternal irritation where computers are concerned. anyway, it's my third day of summer... and it doesn't even feel like it yet. feels like a long weekend. knox came over yesterday, we relived many nonsensical inside jokes and came up with a few more, the usual agenda. today we spent a good amount of time looking for Tomb Raider so we could watch it (we got the sudden urge, you see) and never did find it, though we pulled the case out from under the tv cabinet. then we gave up and watched Record of Lodoss War for old time's sake. the anime is rather cheezy at times, but i love it for the nostalgia it gives me. and the opening theme is the most beautiful thing i have ever heard/seen in my LIFE. the song is awesome to begin with, but the images that go with it.. together they're just undescribable. that opening always gave me this desperate sense of wanting to be a part of something and never being able to. it's like a beautiful, wonderful torture.-_-' check out my intro video to see what i'm talking about. the quality is not so great so it's not in all its wondrous glory, but oh well. (TURN UP THE VOLUME) anyway that's all my news. nice day, all.

yatttaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

i'm freaking out of school! i just got home from my LAST two exams (geometry and medieval history) now after graduation on friday i won't have to look at the place for another three months wheee i'm happy did you notice? O.o even though my computer is broken and i have to use my mom's for another couple of days ..but the good news on that is, the computer people (who, i was convinced, didn't know how to do ANYTHING but reset computers) think they won't have to wipe all the stuff off my 'com, which is very very good. especially since i realized this morning i've got all my itunes songs on there and they're so not backed up.. at all. i really should back up things. i think all my computers breaking is some kind of insistent lesson trying to worm its way into my consciousness. hey.. maybe i'll try backing up my files after i get the 'com back THIS time! XP anyway. tonight we have some previously unexpected houseguests, my godparents are just sort of dropping in on their way to florida, so that'll be.. interesting. i'm gonna change my song, i'm getting sick of no roads left.

boy, do i ever have a fucking way with those fucking computers.

i cannot believe this. i shouldn't be allowed to touch them. i WOULDN'T touch them, if they weren't the only fucking way i can talk to the love of my life. i think once we're together i'll renounce computers for the rest of my fucking life. so... juuust less than half a year ago i get my dad's old computer, fairly new, after my old one died of unknown causes and even the people at the computer repair place couldn't figure out what the fuck happened to it, it was doing such wierd stuff. in fact, every fucking computer i've ever fucking owned has crashed and burned from some wierd cause that even professionals (and even my DAD, for christ's sake) cannot identify. i am some sort of freaking GREMLIN. i DESTROY computers without even fucking knowing how i DO it. so... just an hour or two ago, i was downloading some new virus protection (norton was giving me hell and i decided to hell with IT, i'll get mcafee instead) and just getting ready to install it when i accidentally bumped a few keys in the vicinity of the "enter" key with my hand, while reaching for the mouse. immediately it started ending all my programs, shut down, and when i tried to turn it on again, came up with a screen that basically told me it didn't know what was wrong but that i'd have to figure it out myself. after trying numerous options of how to restart the computer and having all of them fail, i called my dad, who's a pretty good authority on computer fuck-ups of all kinds. he'd never SEEN the fucking thing before, had no idea what was going on. tried a few things; they didn't work either. so now my fucking computer's gone to hell, we're going to have to take it in to the same repair place that just wiped my last one clear of everything and lost all my files (i STILL don't have my files completely backed up, god damnit!!!) and i have to use my mom's computer whenever she's off it, for the time being. can you say.... NAIA IS SCREWED. i'm gonna lose those same files again because whenever i try to back up my files something either very distracting or very catastrophic happens, and so, i did not back those up. i am SO. FUCKED. i wouldn't be so upset, except, AGAIN, i depend on the internet for LIFE, if i can't get on i can't talk to gabe. and right now i'm at the mercy of mom and whether she's working or not; gabe and i get to talk few enough times as it is, and now if she's working i can't talk at all. i'm so fucking screwed. i don't even know if the computer place can fix it. i always cause problems that take them weeks and that they can never really remedy. unless you count wiping the whole fucking thing clean, and i have so many programs and crap that i have to use, it'll take me weeks to get it back even CLOSE to how it was. i fucking HATE computers. i HATE them. somebody get me a plane ticket to quebec and i'll NEVER touch one again. GOD DAMN YOU MICROSOFT! SHRIVEL UP AND DIE, BILL GATES! I FUCKING HATE YOU ALL!!!! ESPECIALLY VISTA, EVEN THOUGH I DON'T HAVE IT, THANK THE LORD ALMIGHTY, BUT I'M STILL SCREWED. oh yeah. and vista is evil. and when you buy a new computer, you have to get it with vista. it's the only operating system that's available anymore, no matter what kind of computer you get. we're all in deep shit. vista is designed to ruin your life and take over your stuff. anyway, have an absolutely great day, and don't forget that plane ticket, aright?

in world news today..

i think i've managed to bring my dad to the prestigious level of Almost Cool O.o he plays video games now and willigly listens to Snow Patrol and Breaking Benjamin (and enjoys it). my work here is done. XD in other news: we had a completely insane night at the pub, we seated 125 people for dinner, that's not counting all the crazies at the bar, and at least 90 of those 125 came between 8 and 10 o'clock XP i was literally working up a sweat there that really didn't stop till i got a chance to stand still for a minute or two, and there weren't many minutes like that. there was an adorable little girl there for a while that came in, took one look at me and went "you're pwetty " i was like "omg can i keep her " XD anyway, i'm dog tired and my feet are just about shot. y'all have a great weekend or whatever's remaining of it. damn, i have to do a crap load of homework tomorrow... nyrgh...

yeah i really don't have anything much to post about. but here's a picture of a mask i made to be Eurydice from the greek drama Antigone (yeah, you guessed it, for english class) and also in this picture you can see my "new" hair, although it really does look more red than purple in that light.

so

new site theme whaddaya think? O.o my old one was kind of too peaceful and cute, it was making me throw up a little. XD i like that in real life but not in decor. XP so yeah, my song is by linkin park. can you believe it? god, i can't believe they went "pop". it's too horrible to describe. some of their new songs are pretty good, but they JUST don't sound like LINKIN PARK anymore. i'm so sad. i guess i'll get used to it eventually. i just think they had something really original going for them, doing metal with chester's voice, it was unusual. now it's just another mild band with a cute boy voice. one whom, i might mention, can scream like a banshee but no longer makes much use of that skill. anyway, this new song is alright, i like it a lot starting at around 2:06-onward. i also like Leave Out All the Rest, What I've Done, and No More Sorrow. No More Sorrow actually DOES sound like the old linkin park. ..aanyway. still more not-so-happy news, at least not for me... gabe and i don't get to talk much lately, what with him working and me having to keep going on these stupid trips and crap. i'm like... so pathetic when i can't talk to him-_- i think i've made all my family (the ones who know) and friends irritated with that at one point or other. but i can't really help it, i need him. we used to be able to talk a whole lot more, but we were both students then, we had basically the same schedule, and my family members weren't all getting sick at the same time-_- anyway... it's still not that bad... before him i probably wouldn't have believed it if someone told me i'd be in this kind of relationship and never regret it or feel sad about it^_^' i miss him a lot... but i love him so much more so... i know i sound emo, but i'm actually not sad, just angsty XD so then... i'm gonna stop that before i make me cry and you nauseated-_-' usually i just monologue to myself or god, but lucky you, i happened to be online when the feeling struck. well then, i'm off to my Angstholics Anonymous meeting ¬_¬ (why am i still talking, nobody reads till the end of posts this long anyway do they?>.<)

sooo

i don't feel like writing a post but i will anyway. just to let you know again that yes, i survived. my grandmother's memorial was not too pleasant, but it could have been a lot worse. apart from the obvious fact that it was sad, i had to meet all these obscure family members and listen to them talk about how tall i was when they last saw me and all the usual crap that people who really don't know you talk about and my aunt monica's old college friend sort of hung around me the whole time, she's a lesbian vegan (interesting eh?) well it wasn't really, because ALL she could talk about was health food. i think she mentioned her son and her cat once or twice but mostly it was health food. she was nice, but a bit tiresome to be around for too long XP anyway, you may call me the master of plants from now on because (apart from my strange affinity for them), i kept eight roses (that had already been cut for several days) alive and very well for two days in a hot, stuffy, crowded, bumpy car ride. it wasn't easy either.-_-' so yeah, some people, they take home leftover food; me, i take home leftover flowers. yay. two more days and they're still doing really well, too O.o anyway.. damn i get sidetracked from points. i think i should win some sort of rambling award. there's a two-hour delay from school today and my parents have to go to some meeting at ten SOOOO i get to go to school and sit there for an HOUR before it opens. sounds like fun, doesn't it? yeah. of course it doesn't. fortunately (or unforunately? hm..) i have tests to study for so i can keep busy. so to wrap up, this day better come out in spades for how this morning is going so far. hope y'all are doing well.

yay

i think i must have like mild heat stroke or something XP i was really dizzy for the second half of the day, after gym class. they made us run almost a mile at high noon in like 80-degree weather and THEN play soccer. it was inexcusably cruel. anyway, last night i submitted a new manga page. it's come to my attention that apparently voting ends for the pages like as soon as i submit them. but if voting has not indeed ended, please vote on my pages. i haven't gotten any votes since maybe january. oh, and also, i apologize if you died today in a fiery explosion of cataclysmic doom. that was my fault, i wore a skirt to school (one of the warning signs of the apocalypse) anyway, here, go visit Aya and the Masked Dudes, they're lonely for yaz.
