It's November! [02 Nov 2009|09:38pm]
[ mood | geeky ]

Why don't I ever update? D:

Well, I'm doing NaNoWriMo this month! It'll be fun. I will try to update wordcount every week, I think. :D I have 2108.

It's worth it. [12 Aug 2009|03:48pm]
You should read Goodbye Chains. I know I've probably said this before. But maybe one of you actually paid attention.

Here's the description:
Colin Lord is a cheerful Boston Communist, and Banquo White is a cranky half-Mexican with no philosophy beyond hedonism. Somehow they have become partners in crime, spreading a reign of terror and dialectical materialism across the plains of Colorado. Follow their adventures with explosives and ladies--and, possibly, men.

You need to check this out. Seriously. www.goodbyechains.com

It's one of those webcomics that you'll end up checking all the time even though you know it hasn't updated yet.

Just do it.

The administration is intensely irritating. And frustrating. And I pretty much hate them right now.

But I'm graduating today. And don't have to deal with them after this. Which is just all kinds of awesome.

My addiction is resurfacing. [14 Feb 2009|01:22am]
[ mood | distressed ]

It's not a bad thing, though. It's just an addiction to One Piece.

Anyway - this last episode was all kinds of dramatic. What the hell, you guys? This is NOT a soap opera.

Also, I was at an awesome (anti)V-day fiesta in which there were 2 murder mysteries, lots of theater sports/improv/charade-things, and an epic scavenger hunt. :D And, you know, lots of people who I love.

Back to OP - You are all ridiculous for fighting, and Going Merry will always have a special place in my heart (be my valentine?)

School is about to start.
My mother is obnoxious.
Lyrics are fun to read.
Rainbows are pretty.
Badfic is scarring.
Snajlet is really gay sometimes.
People don't use good grammar as often as they should.

I may develop a twitch at some point. D:

I am so screwed [23 Aug 2008|01:54am]
[ mood | doomed ]
[ music | Ludo ]

This is the general layout of a day for me these last few weeks:
-wake up once every hour from 9am-11:30am
-eat "breakfast" at noon
-go on the internet/watch random anime (usually One Piece)/play pokemon
-eat lunch around 3 or 4pm
-have a little snack around 5
-take a nap until about 7
-maybe sit and eat dinner with my family (which is mostly me watching them eat since I'm not hungry at that point)
-have another snack around 9 or 10
-go on the internet/draw/play pokemon/write stuff
-have cereal around 2 am

This is not going to help me trying to get back into school time.

... and my cereal is getting soggy. D:

So I'll be in Rehoboth for a week with my church youth group. Have fun without me. D:

We'll build stuff/paint stuff/art when I get back. (John, when are you not busy?)

[ music | You're Not Mine- The Morning Light ]

Or analogy, as a ninth-grader said. :3

AUGH. I still have half a page. Also, what I've written is stuff I don't really want to be remembered. But I'm so distracted.

Like right now. I should be working on my pages, but instead I'm procrastinating more. Huzzah. I think I'll extend my procrastination by sticking what I have up so far on eventually__

Thank you, John [26 May 2008|09:56pm]

I was reminded to make a List of Things to Do (not like that's what she said). A very important summer thing.

List of Things to Do:
-Start a portfolio
-Build stuff (Tech thing)
-Get a job
-Look at colleges (suggestions would rock)
-Get my driver's license
-Finish my notebook (fill all the pages)
-Finish my sketchbook(s)
-Art epically with my friends (giant canvas, anyone? Or is that just a... FLAT!)
-Band practice
-Go to concerts whenever possible
-Chillax with my awesome friends
-Go to Otakon
-Make someone teach me how to video game (totally a verb) properly
-etc. (random unplanned stuff)

[ music | Guilty Pleasure- Cobra Starship ]

Perhaps I should have updated on Monday about this, but it was my birthday on the 24. And I'm 17. It doesn't feel like it yet. It'll probably kick in around August or something.

And I finally put up most of my pictures of concerts on facebook (the evil thing it is) and sadly, half of those are terrible. But that's what I get.

Also, the only physical present that I've gotten so far= cookies. I mean, I got a promise of a new camera, but that's all. And only if my English grade goes up.

D:

Bandwise, in case I forget, The Hint= green, The Bigger Lights= orange. And What a Great Audience is forever accidentally related to Hannah Montana because of CMac.

Spring Break? [15 Mar 2008|12:29am]

[ music | Goo Goo Dolls ]

So... the internet is terrible for me. There are things I should have learned not to look up, but nooooo. That's too logical for me.

MapQuest.

And, um... sleep is nice.

And reminders to draw things (Paisley, Preggo!Gaara, NaNo characters, etc.) XP

Stupid canon. [23 Feb 2008|09:27pm]
[ mood | frustrated ]
[ music | Attention Reader- Pencey Prep ]

Doesn't it suck when your favorite character dies, and it's canon, so nobody can do anything about it? (Except maybe the magic of fanfiction, which is sort of lovely.)

Personally, I hate that. I'm saying this because of Jack. I know, I ranted about him already, but it made me think about all my other dead favorite characters.

I think I'm going to have to start a list.

[ music | I'll Meet You at the Bottom- The Bigger Lights ]

Well, the day before, at least.

Not one of my favorite days. Not even one of the more disliked days. It's just... February 14th- nothing special. Just the day before my cousin's birthday.

Headache-worthy, perhaps? Very blinding with all its pink and glitter and lace and PDA. EW. (Unless of course it's not het PDA. Then it's okay. I know, I know. I shouldn't say that, but it's true.)

And large amounts of sugar are never good for anyone.

And large amounts of awkward haven't done much good, either. Then again, there is constant awkward. :D

Mostly I just want snow. And no school.

Shanking [05 Feb 2008|10:43pm]
[ mood | infuriated ]

So, I volunteer for next year if it comes early. Early meaning in a week.

I want people to stop being jerkfaces. I want them to piss off. I want to be able to work on a story without hearing what time it is every five minutes. I want to not feel like I have to cuss people out to get them to leave me the fuck alone.

Seriously. 10? What the hell? Never before 12. NEVER. I'd rather not waste 2 hours of my life staring at the ceiling. One is enough.

Or should I say Crithmuth?

Anyway. Who got awesome stuffs and what did they get?

p.s. I was surprised this year. Recently family members seem to be trying to get me anime-/manga-related stuff and getting me something I have/have read/don't have interest in/the nth book/episodes of the series (n>1). Er, yeah. FMA ftw. :D Also, random tons of references to mythology. From everywhere. Very geekily happy about that.

WAUGH. [09 Dec 2007|03:10pm]
[ mood | hyper ]
[ music | First Time- Lifehouse ]

Incredibly distracted and hyper right now. And I still have homework to do. D:

And I need to write those kidnapping scenes. (HOOOOOOWWWWWWW?)

I feel so ADD right now.

This is why I stopped drinking Diet Coke on a regular basis, isn't it?

I've read 3 webcomics today. SO FAR. And I didn't mean to. I was working on my NaNoWriMo story. I SWEAR. For Seriously. (and Sirius and Remus, of course.)

Also, this whole being in a band thing is really exciting. I like it. It's cool to have part of a song written. XD

I apologize [02 Dec 2007|09:32pm]
[ mood | weird ]

for never updating. But once a month is more than enough with such an uninteresting life.

Also, I know I've asked this before, but how does one draw dreadlocks properly?

How bothersome [31 Oct 2007|08:22pm]
[ mood | frustrated ]
[ music | Postal Service- Sleeping In ]

AUUUUUUGGGHHHHHH. Why am I not outside in a ridiculous costume right now?

Because apparently I can't do anything on a school night. Fuck that. Halloween was on a school night last year and I went. And now I'm "too old" to go trick-or-treating. BLOODY FUNKING TWUNKS.

I feel like shanking someone with my lollipop. But it's upstairs. D:

Yeah, Tech is fun, but Halloween is so much cooler. Free candy and I'm encouraged to look funny. What more is there? And I miss the people who graduated last year. Even though PacMan came to visit last weekend, I want them to stay longer.

And I want to be less awkward and weird around Toaster. He seems like a nice guy, and it'd be nice to have a more normal-ish friend. And his hands are really warm. And sometimes he lapses into a Scottish accent when he means to be Russian. ♥

And does anyone have any techno music?

Generally my friends, I guess. The people I know have the oddest ideas and conversations- always something worth writing down for future reference for a picture or a story. Tech is usually one of those places. Backstage, we had a conversation about berserkers, wondering how hardcore it would be if they tore out their ribcages, impaled people with them and ripped out their hearts and took a bite out of it before they died. Perhaps with a beehive hidden in their ribcage. It was interesting.
Just today we were talking about how cute it would be if one of our friends did that whole standing outside of a window with a boombox to confess their love/apologize thing. It's definitely getting written into the techie story.
Oh, and those word association games are cool because somebody might say something that I'd never think of and it could be worth drawing or crafting.
Another way is to take a walk somewhere, especially if I'm near a populated area like DC or a mall. And have a camera. I take pictures of everything and I'll find something I hadn't noticed in the background. Or even if I just see an awesome person or building or plant. Anything that catches my eye.

p.s. You guys say the funniest things. (ex. Quote of the Week)
