[ music | Why Can't I Be You? - The Cure ]

Take the last two digits of the year of your birth and list that many facts about yourself.  (Add or Take away any numbers if needed)
 

1. I am half-Irish.

2. I resided in the United Kingdom.

3. I can play Guitar Hero on hard.

4. I have never been in a good relationship.

5. I'm majoring in psychology. It was the first subject I ever had a really strong connection with. I'm currently taking my fifth psych class.

7. I hate going to the mall and finding a really cute outfit, only to discover they don't carry it in my size.

8. This is probably because I'm so freaking tall. I'm 5'10", and 6' in heels.

9. I CANNOT stand it when people smack their gum. It's so déclassé. I want to smack them upside the head.

18. When I was young, I would not eat sweets.

19. I have obsessive compulsive disorder.

20. It pisses me off when people glamorize mental disorders, especially bipolar and OCD. This does not make you cool.

23. I have been to a bat mitszvah.

24. I am extremely perverted.

25. I have never seen a single episode of the OC, Friends, or Laguna Beach.

27. My favorite animal is the ocelot.

28. I'm pretty sarcastic.

54. I graduated high school at seventeen.

56. The most beautiful place I've been to is the garden at Cawdor castle.

Do you know what's fun? The fact that nycsubway.org has 205 pictures of Smith/9th st. and not one of them is at all useful. nycsubway.org is like railfan porn, but sometimes it is spectacularly unhelpful.

So I took my own pictures (which is best anyway), and now I am TORN. I got maybe 20 minutes of sleep last night. Go take a nap before I have to go to therapy, or start the backgrounds on the next Catband page? I love drawing subway stations.

I have a very very happy cat on my lap who would much rather I do neither and instead pet him for the next two hours.

I think nap wins out, though. I leave you with this:

Stupid Antarctic Cold Fronts [06 Oct 2008|08:10pm]

obtabius
[ mood | sleepy. ]

I am so ready for summer to come along and get rid of this half assed Spring that Hobart has going on. Take today for example; the first time I woke up it was pretty nice outside (I however was feeling kind of grungy so I went back to bed) the second time - around 12 - when I actually got up it was crazy dark and rain cloudy. And effing cold. We will have one really nice day and then a cold front from Antarctica. Yes. That Antarctica. And it will be freeeeeeeeeezing and crappy for a week.

Inexplicably every really nice day has seemed to have occurred on the days that I woke inside. all. day.

Good news though, we got Day Light Savings in, so even though it sucks getting up what feels like an hour early, its light until after 7pm which is nice. Although not really today since it was overcasty and revolting.

Also pretty cute was the old man on the bus who got me to change the time on his cell phone, since "the young ones are so good with the technology." So cute!

I have 1.3k words for Equinox. The chapter's really rough, but it just feels good to be able to write again. I'm hoping to post it by the end of the week. The song for this chapter will be "Nothing in My Way" by Keane. Indie music can so totally own my soul any day. But when I post it-- please don't kill me. Please?

Z'ohmygod. The Twilight movie comes out in, like, three months.

I is excited. ;D

[ music | Reading in Bed - Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton ]

So I have about 840 words done on Equinox, which is an improvement over the 400 I had before. I'm shooting for about 3,000 words and this chapter might very well top that. I'm actually sort of excited about it!

I apologize for my aloof behavior. I've been rather depressed lately. I feel better now, though.

On a side note: Go see "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist." It is the most adorable movie ever, and the soundtrack's epic.

Holy crap. I want to marry this guy.

A Post About A Variety of Things and Has No Sense At All [03 Oct 2008|06:18pm]

in__conspicuous

Originally published at antipatica.org. Please leave any comments there.

It’s October! Yay! Halloween is coming soon, Fall is officially in the country and it is raining again! Er, yeah. Weather’s pretty bad outside which is why I choose to stay within my house to enjoy its dryness. So yes, a summary of everything:

1) School

School is a… I don’t even know. It’s only been a month (to the date!) and school is already hellish. Unlike most of my peers, I haven’t exactly had a lot in my hands but whenever I walk down those hallways, I can feel the stress in my fellow Grade 12’s. Doesn’t help that post-secondary applications have opened and everyone’s spazzing about the requirements and the fees to apply. Sure, $40 might not be a lot, but when it accumulates because you’re trying to ensure that you’ll go to a post-secondary institution after high school, it’s a lot.

I can say I’ve been having a good time at school though, I like all my courses and stuff. I’ve also really figured out that all that Computer Science thing that I thought I’d pursue isn’t my thing, and that I prefer the Arts more. Yeah.

2) Work

I work late night shifts now (10pm to 6 am or 11pm to 7 am, depends), and let’s just say I really need to sleep right now, but I am unable to. Man, I’m usually asleep during this time when I don’t need to be asleep. Aiya, so annoying.

3) Fandom

HEROES. SEASON 3! HAVE YOU WATCHED IT? Man was it awesome! Grey’s Anatomy Season 5! Grey’s was evil, I thought something happened but apparently it was just a dream, so anti-climactic. Seriously. But I am happy because my two loves are back! So the TV and I are friends again, after months long of ignoring each other. Yeah!

New loves include SYTCD: Canada (what happened to all the Asian and Filipino people though O_o) and Gossip Girls. Gossip Girls is more of a meh, but whenever I start watching it, I’m hooked. Lol.

Music-wise, a friend has managed to make me listen to Muse and Epik High (K-HipHop) in a span of a month or probably less. Haa, I never liked Japanese or Korean music before because I never understood them. See, I’m a lyric type of listener, and I want songs that makes sense. So yeah, when I found out subbed Asian music videos… I got hooked. Talk about weak, haha.

4) Miscellany

Oh! Canterbury Tales! Heard of it? Yeah, it’s some Medieval piece of literature that we’re studying for my Lit class, pretty interesting. We had a presentation for it though, some guy rapped about it. Okay, this guy’s name is Bubba Brinkman, he’s a Vancouver native (apparently?), and he makes a living by rapping about the Canterbury Tales.

No joke.

Well, he raps too, but the reason he was at my school was because of his SKEELZ to rap about Medieval literature.

He blew most of us away, it was awesome.

So this was pretty long, which means I won’t be posting again for quite some time. Gah, school. I need to make sure I don’t slack off too much. Yeah, it’s mostly school that takes up my time, how sad is that?

Your Honest Opinion. Please! [03 Oct 2008|06:04pm]

[ mood | happy ]

Hi there! I just signed up here in livejournal... one of the main reasons: Fiction communities.

What I'm asking is something rather simple: Please tell me your honest opinion about my fic, As Far As I Can Go. Could you please do that?

A little synopsis before I post it's real summary: It's a vampire story... but, trust me, it won't be your usual vampire story. Even though I have started it rather lightly, it will get a bit dark. Also, it won't be all about romance, although that is one of the stories' themes. I'll really appreciate it if you tell me what you think about it! It's my first attempt at something of this kind, so constructive criticism will help me, tremendously!

--

Summary: She was one of them physically, but not mentally. She despised being one of them, one of those who killed her brother, one of those which she was today. Even as she escaped, she couldn't help but think back... and think towards the future.
Status: On-Going; Updated weekly or biweekly.
Author: GurenSympathy.

Thank you if you read my fic! Also, anonymous reviews are accepted, although leaving you LJ username would be kind of nice, as I will contact you to thank you!

Thank you!

Vice Presidential Debate [03 Oct 2008|11:10am]

[ mood | hopeful ]

Well since I live in the great city of St. Louis (blah) I was here for the VP debate! I went down to SLU and got to watch it with a ton of other McCain/Palin supporters and then Sarah Palin herself came down.

It was so amazing watching the debate and then having her arrive by bus to deafening cheers. She is truly my hero!!!

Anyways, did anyone else watch the debate? Oh I have so many stories to tell!!! Who do you think won? I think Sarah Palin...woot, woot!

[ music | Plain White T's ]

I haven't written anything about my life lately, so I'm going to start to say some things.

So yesterday I had an awesome time hanging out with my art buddies while we toured Flint's greatest galleries. I stalked Tony because he's so easy to annoy and come on, how can someone as random as me NOT do something as crazy as that? We went to this little restaurant in downtown and the waitress kept messing up our orders. She gave my sandwich to Tony and he bit it! Then she gave me Alex's soup! (haha)

I told Jenn, Ricky, John, and Zach that I would go to a haunted house with them but I've never been to a haunted house before. I know, I'm a loser. But seriously, I'm kind of scared because we're going to a four floor haunted house and I'm not sure I can deal with guys with chainsaws coming at me.

I just made Kelly her wonderful cd finally! I also made Mercedes a mix cd too, and I'm pretty sure she's going to love it. Tina just asked me today if I would make her another cd. I never realized it, but I make a lot of mix cds for people! It's a hobby of mine to spread the musical love. (haha)

So I've made a list of activities that I need to convince my friends to do with me:
1. Go see Mister Lonely at the FIA.
2. Go to the Youth Theatre and see a play.
3. Go glow golfing.
4. Watch an entire season of a television show in one weekend!
5. Have a swap music party!
6. Go to a party not hosted by someone at our school!

Just some random goals I've made. None of which I'm taking too seriously, but I want to go and do these things sometime.

Oh! I talked to Judah like a week ago. I hadn't talked to him in about a month and half. It's funny how we're the kind of friends who can not talk for three months and then out of the blue decide to call and to the both of us it's totally normal. I hope most of the friends I have now will be like that when I go to college.

I saw Mister Foe, by the way. It was pretty good. Jamie Bell was amazing. I'd recommend it to anyone.

I also saw Eagle Eye! I LOVE IT SO MUCH. SHIA WAS SPECTACULAR, I'M TELLING YOU. THAT MAN IS AMAZING. I COULD TALK ABOUT HIM ALL DAY. LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM. (tee hee)
oh heck, let's just put a picture here to brighten everyone's day!
