msmoon: (Mononoke - Strange)

What day is it? It’s …Thursday, right? Good God...I’m telling you, in a off the beaten path country home, time stands still. If you don’t have something to divert you, it all runs together and you forget what day it is and what the heck’s going on.


So, Reiko got up here safe and sound (though there’s always some question about just how sound she is). She and her mom and dad all stopped in a resort town called Fairfield Bay, which is about an hour and a half southeast of here. Scamp and her peoplez actually went to my Aunt Lane’s house. I know the power went out and at some point, their generator went out too, but evidently it’s back up and running. I’m sure since it’s farther north, the power will be resorted soon.


I had a bit of a way-side adventure yesterday. Reiko had told me that she and her dad were heading down Wednesday morning, and that if I wanted to, I could go with them. She figured we might not be able to get back into Houma, but her house in Hammond (Robert) would be reachable. We could bunk there till we could come down. So, I packed up most of my stuff (forgetting a lot =..=) and headed over to meet them. We all went to Wal-Mart and stocked up on the essentials we’d need (potted meat, water, gas cans, and for me and Reiko granola bars and pop tarts). Well, after checkout, I get a call from my mom (who was really upset that I we were leaving so soon), and she said that the mayor said not to even bother coming back till Friday; and, that power would not be restored for up to 2 to 3 weeks! So, that was very discouraging, but her opinion was what clenched it. She said she didn’t want me going down there when it was still a disaster zone, that it was her birthday and she wanted me here where it was safe. So...I sold Reiko and her dad my gas cans and potted meat, and came home. Reiko was a bit upset about this (not as upset as she was about my driving though >..>) but she got over it and I came back here.


…And now Mom and I both have some freaky sinus infection that we’re fighting =..= Reiko called sometime…the other day…and said that they had decided not to leave. That she was feeling sick with a sinus infection too, and they’d gotten the bulletin about not being able to go back till at least Friday. So, now they’re planning on leaving tomorrow morning.


I called Blue Bird (my boss), and asked her if they’d evacuated or if they were alright. She said that they’d made it to Baton Rogue, but the hurricane hit just as badly there. I told her my mom wasn’t allowing me to leave till it was safe, and she said, “Oh no. No don’t leave at all. They’re not letting anyone back in and there’s no power.” So, she has my private e-mail, and she’s going to e-mail me updates, but other than that, I’m not really worried about work. I also called Cole, and she said that her family was heading back today (I think her hubby manages one of the power plants). She said to call her Saturday before I even thought about coming so that she could give me updates first. I also called my energy provider asking if they had an estimate for when my area would have power. They told me to call back Friday. So…here I am. Can’t go home and no idea when I’m gonna be heading that way anyway.


I don’t have a TV or anything in my room here, so the only thing I can really do is read. I brought Breaking Dawn and The Host by Stephanie Meyer. Both of them are great books, and I’ve enjoyed reading them over and over…and over..and over again. Unfortunately, I’ve dang-near memorized them and…well, after 50 times, it becomes a little old. I did buy the 3rd season of
Supernatural today. I got it at Wal-Mart, because I figured “Why not?”. Of course, no private TV to watch it on..so. Yeah. I’m stuck admiring the pretty pictures on the cover (and man, are they pretty ^..^). And, I did a recent search, and Bones season 3, is available for Preorder. Of course, it won’t be coming out till November 18, but still. It’s something to look forward to.


This…whatever. Sickness or whatever you want to call it, is seriously fooling with me. I’m so tired and disoriented and…just miserable. I just want to be in my own home. I love Mom, and Aunt Carolyn is alright, I just like being on my own too much. I like having my space and my stuff and my routine. Here...if I don’t feel like watching HGTV for a 24 hour period or switching over to the Hallmark channel, I really have nothing to do. So yeah….No way to entertain myself away from the fact that I’m miserable. If I wasn’t feeling bad, then none of this would really bother me so much. But I am..so. Yeah.


I guess I’m just gonna go ahead and sign off now. There’s really nothing more to update on (that my frazzled mind can recall). I’ll talk to ya’ll later, Sunshines.

msmoon: (XME - Rain)
I woke up this morning to the rain on the tin porche...I thought it was so soothing. Then I looked at my clock to see that it was 5:40 and I had five minutes before I had to get up. I became really depressed about it. I am not a morning person. I never have been. But because of the need for money, I’ve been forced into a full-time position that requires me to wake up at 5:45 every weekday morning. I am exhausted every day. I have grown used to being tired every day. It doesn’t make it any better, but it never comes as a surprise. I am tired and lonely and unable to do anything about it. I resent the fact that I have to do this, even though I’m always ill and/or never feel good. I can’t count the times I’ve wanted so badly to just go home in the middle of the day, but I’ve made myself stay, usually ending up giving myself a panic attack from the strain. I get agrivated that I have to work. Then I become angry with myself, because I have it so much better than most. I should be content with what I have...but I’m not. I have coworkers that somehow make the job a little more fun than it should be, and yet it’s still so stifling. I don’t want to be a whiner...and I don’t want to burden everyone else. So I just keep moving. I should excerise more, I should write more, I should be more grateful... but I’m too damn tired to make myself. The only solice I have is in my day dreams, and I’m too tired to dream.


Maybe I just need a Bahama-vention...or something similare.

msmoon: (My Little Poney - Drama queen)
My God, where have the last two days gone? There were right there…right there in front of me, I swear. >.>….oh well.

Most of my time has spent working or recovering from work, but what little time I have been online, I’ve been trying to read as many LJ Idol posts as I can from other contestants. Just to mingle and get acquainted and see who’s who and find out who I’m gonna vote for. Can I just make this one official statement on the record?

 

O_O'

Yah..That pretty much sums it all up. It’s a lot of “Ok, this person is gonna be ‘so-and-so’” and “OMG, that is too funny!” and “Ok…I need to comment with something that shows my opinion of this person and shows my personality while doing it……….what is my opinion of this person? And which personality am I going with today? O.o” not to mention “Holy Quadrupeds! That’s the coolest icon I’ve ever seen!” and other such stuff. It’s mind-boggling. Waaaaaay too deep for my shallow mind =___=! …Not really. Wouldn’t be so bad if I weren’t sore and tired from work. Everyone seems really fun and cool though. /shrugs. time will tell I suppose. Ultimately I joined because I thought it’d be a lot of fun to see other peoples’ posts and hear an opinion of mine.

Oh, in other news: I went from having 68 LJ Friends (aka ‘so called friends’) to having 30. My Friends page was getting awfully cluttered and I was somehow missing a lot of things in the shuffle. Then I wandered over to my profile page and realized that out of the 68 friends that I have only 30 were mutual. Of course that made me wonder how I’d managed to add 68 people to my friends list anyway…I know I used to wonder around a lot and notice people who seemed cool and had similar interests as me…And I was always afraid I’d forget that person, so I’d add them to my FL just to make sure I didn’t…but I guess they did some house cleaning and were like “Who was this girl again? Oh yeah…I don’t really know her and she never comments.” So I bookmarked them all in the LJ – Unforgettable folder if only because I really don’t want to forget these people! They’re awesomeness...they just evidently don’t have me on their friends list anymore. So, no more adding people to the friends list only because I don’t want to forget them; that’s what book marking is for ne? Even with the whole LJ Friend Clean Up thing…popfiend still dominates the list…amusing. ^.^

Ohhhh, what else, what else, what else, what else, what else?....Hmm. been talking with Scamp a lot. We finally got our old tradition of long e-mails back up again. We discussed a lot about the Nexus. Our house is gonna rock one way or the other, I just wanna make sure it’s as fun to be in as it is to behold. I’ve decided to put off the whole CD thing, if only because I wanna move in a whole lot more than I want that CD =.= Priorities right? So, I can save up for a CD later...no biggie. Considering the amount of money that I make and that I wanna have a good bit tucked away in savings before we really break ground, I think late November / early December would be a great time to move in. I know I’ve overwhelmed my Dad with all my ideas for everything (replace the floors with hardwood, till up all the ground so it’s level; oh heck, I think I lost him after just those two actually). Mom said he was saying something like, “I can’t do all of that!” He forgets that I intend to pay for it all. Speaking of Dad, I think I’ll write him an e-mail while he’s on the rig.

I’m guessing that’s about all. If whatever else I’d wanted to write about hasn’t surfaced, it ain’t gonna. So, I’ll catch ya’ll later (more than likely tomorrow around lunch time -.-). G’night.

PS: Also, I’ve been thinking of changing the ‘gill’ tag to ‘scamp’ since if you were just coming and reading this, you might wonder who Scamp is, but there’s no Scamp tag, even though Scamp is Gill…but you might not know that…/reads all that over and nods. Right. That. I mean, there’s a ‘scamp art’ and a scamp comics’ tag, might as well make an official ‘scamp’ tag. Makes sense.../nod nod nod.

Life and Mists

2006-Dec-13, Wednesday 12:03 pm
msmoon: (MM - laughing)
Work has been helping me to get through every day life very well it seems. Without the internet at home, work is the only place where I can actually have my online life anymore. I’ve been able to check e-mails and have a few conversations through my FaceBook (thank God for FaceBook since no one really e-mails me that much). I’m very grateful that we’ll be serviced by Com Cast soon, but I still worry over poor AMOS being so slow and degratitated (if you’ve seen Little Women you’ll laugh at that). I’m fortunate to be blessed with coworkers that are as fun to be around as any whom I’d choose to hang out with. They may not all be like me, but none of us really condemn each other for that sin. Each new story is so fun and delightful, it’s as if I’m learning something new of myself when they tell me of their lives. So today, I have to bits of Lacey.

Lacey is my giddy, girly buddy at ISR. The two of us rant, ramble, babble and giggle on about the silliest of things. But there are many times when Lacey tells stories about her home life that make my sides hurt from laughter. Two cases in point for yesterday.

1) Lacey told us about something her son Trystin did over the weekend. She said that he told his dad that he was writing a letter ‘to the fairies’. Of course, the kid had me at ‘a letter to the fairies’. But it gets better. Evidently, Trystin had a cat named Milo some time ago. And this Milo went missing. So Trystin had thought up this idea to write a letter to the fairies and ask them if they would mind checking on Milo wherever he was. He wanted to tell Milo that he missed him very much and he hoped he was happy and not dead. Ok, now this is a kid that I could really get along with.

2) Secondly was the cake. Ok, so not only are we (evidently) throwing Lacey a party, but she’s gonna be having one for herself at home. So, her hubby, Justin, tells her to go ahead and order her own cookie cake because he’s gonna be on his motorbike so he can’t very well pick it up or anything. Of course, Lacy thinks this is kinda …’frou-frou’ but it’s not like there’s anything she can do about it. So, Lori and I hear this and we tell her, “You know what? Since you’re ordering the cake, you should put something like ‘All Hail Queen Lacey’ or ‘Happy Birthday Queen Lacey’ on it!” She loved the idea! So now she’s gonna have a cake at her party tomorrow (at home at least) that’ll be all ‘happy birthday Queen Lacey’!

What else is there to talk about…? Oh yes! I almost forgot. I watched The Mists of Avalon the other night...gotta say: didn’t love the whole mover over-all, but there were several interesting spots here and there. For one thing movies full of gloom, despair, agony, arranged loveless marriages, incest and other such things are not my cup of tea to start out with. Though I do like the way the movie showed the original Christian, Pagan and Catholic religions. Especially showing how the Catholic religion was a lot like mixing Druid and Christian religions. Maybe I haven’t grown up enough yet, but in any movie in which there are more than a handful of characters and only one or two live (and even then do not necessarily live happily) is not a movie in which the ends justify the means.

Each day that passes, I try to clean a bit more than the day before because I know that ComCast will be coming in here on the 14th and I really want my room to be at least partially decent...which is quite a feat, I can assure you. But, alas, I don’t seem to be making much of a dent. Aye, there aren’t pillows and books and blankets all over the floor anymore, but all the tables and everything look just as bad as they did before. The down-side of picking stuff up off of the floor is you have to put it somewhere...and that’s what tables and such are for right? I’ll really crack down on it tomorrow. For now though, I’m just too tired.

Oh...I’ve such a sinus headache. What with the weather’s constant change, I can’t seem to get inoculated. Last week were in the mid 50’s. Then Friday we were in the 40’s. Saturday saw the 50’s again, Sunday it was in the 60’s and now we’re in the 70’s! Honestly! And they wonder why people can’t seem to get well =_= Oh well.

That’ll be all for now. We’re about to have Lacey’s birthday lunch and then have her surprise cake. I brought my camera, so I’m hoping I’ll have pictures up on my FaceBook later. Ja!

Writing in Advance

msmoon: (MMEQ - Idlewild BP)
Ok, so, living without the internet is a bore and a pain. I thought it’d be pure agony, but in truth, I’ve ordered everything that I’m gonna order online, so there’s no need for me to really worry over that. Everything’s been paid. Everything’s in the mail. However finding things to do is becoming quite tedious.

Yesterday, after hastily posting that last entry, I did managed to glance at my friends page. Unfortunately, it was almost time to go, and I knew that I wouldn’t be able to do a thorough reading as much as I would enjoy it. In what little time I had left, I did manage to copy and print out the last entries of [profile] wotcherscamp and [personal profile] rattgirl . I didn’t get the chance to read it till later that night, but it made me feel more connected...even though I’m not -_-  

I finally got my PS2 in yesterday afternoon. I was surprised at how very small and lightweight it is. So, I glanced at the instruction manual and thought I had a general idea of how to hook it up. I set it on the shelf that holds my VCR and proceeded to try and move the TV so that I could see the ports in the back...The shelf that my loving father put up for my TV, is scrawny and weak. It’s bowing in the center (where the TV is), and it moves with every little nudge I give the TV! Of course this has me frightened that it’ll fall or break the shelf in two if I try to fool with it. All that boils down to that I do have my PS2...but I’ve no real way of playing it as I can’t figure out how to install it without moving the TV. There were some of those Audio/Video ports in the front of the TV, but I tried to plug it into those and still, it didn’t work -_- I am defeated. I’ve decided to ask my Dad to make another shelf. One more sturdy that doesn’t look like it’s about to break. Of course, he’s two weeks from coming in, so I’ll just have to do without till he does come in. I might try hooking it up to the TV in the living room, if only to experiment and see if I actually know which cables to hook up to which ports O.o It’s been ages since I had a gaming system, and I’ve forgotten how to hook them up.

I also received the other package yesterday and though I did have a rather large sulk-fit at not being able to install the PS2 properly, I consoled myself with Pride and Prejudice, which was almost better than the first go-around. I find I’m more enamored with it now than I was when I first watched it, if that makes any sense at all. Some things just keep getting better as they go. I also skimmed through Races of Destiny, my new D&D supplement book. It’s very interesting and I find the only problem I have with it is that there just isn’t enough put into it ^_^ I also received The Mists of Avalon on DVD, which is actually a gamble that I took. I’ve never seen this movie, but I have wanted to for a very long time. I’ve yet to watch it, but I think I’ll try doing that tonight if I get the chance. Has anyone else seen this, and if so what were your opinions of the movie (and/or the book if you like)?

I didn’t get to sleep till around 1 last night and for two specific reason. One being that I had told Mom I would wash the permanent press, and had nearly forgotten it. I knew I couldn’t just wash it and get away with that so I waited till the washer was done, and then left the clothes in the dryer. Of course Mom didn’t really like that very much beings as she’s never satisfied with dried clothes unless they are immediately hung after they’ve finished drying =_= The second reason for my being up so late would be that I had printed out a list of Magic and the spells these different magics use, and then I had gone through it and edited it more to my liking (added and revising and such). As I had no internet coupled with plenty of time and a reason for staying up longer than I would (the clothes in the washer), I decided to go through the old document which was on this jump drive, and change the format to what I came up with on the edited paper. I am happy to report that the result looks much more organized and unified, even though there isn’t nearly enough on it. I was thinking of posting the table that I’d made in

[profile] ruby_unicorn , but I don’t know how much of a headache that’ll be what with it being in a huge table and all. The table is formatted in Word and it would probably be a great big pain to try formatting it in html. In fact, I confess that I’ve no earthly notion how to make a table in scratch html. Before long, I’ll be going through D&D and EQ RPG books to look at what types of spells they have there. Looking at their spells always helps me to think of something.  

That’s all for now. I’ll see if I can check in later in the day. Ja!

Ok...There’s some really bad weather that’s supposed to blow through here really soon, and I want to get this post up and on here before it gets bad and I have to shut this puppy down.

Ok, so today I went for that interview. I feel it went well, but the realist in me says to still not hope for anything. After applying for that job, I sent off my car note and a letter to Chibi ([profile] amai_tenshi) while I was at Rouses getting Milk and poptarts (chocolate chip cookie...the breakfasts of lazy-girls). Then I headed to McDonnalds to get Mom and me something to eat. I spent the rest of the day reading fan fiction...

Oh, btw, anyone else ever have root beer come flying out of there nose? ‘Cause, I gotta say from my own personal experience, it ain’t that much fun. I’m sitting here, eating. I scarf down my burger. I don’t know why, but I have this little cough. I call it a cigarette cough because it’s one of those ones that juts wont go away. Like an itch in my throat or something. So, I go to take a swig of root beer, and I get that itch again and go to cough. But of course I don’t want to spew the root beer out of my mouth, so I clamp my lips shut...only to have the root beer jettison out of my nose! It was terrible! After I got my breathing under control, I grabbed a box of Kleenexes and blew my nose only to discover I was crying. My eyes have been teary ever since...it’s the darndest thing...

Oh, and my Dad got home tonight. His right knee is killing him so badly, and he hobbles around the house as best he can, but he’s been hobbling for three weeks now and it’s starting to get to me. That was a huge run-on. I should take a breath…Anyway. Mom had a shower or...something to go to. So Dad and I stayed in and watched the past two weeks Survivors and CSIs. I find I’m enjoying CSI more than Survivor lately. Maybe it’s just that Survivor isn’t getting too exciting yet. Maybe my parents enthusiasm needs time to rub off on me.../shrug.

Oh, and talkin’ to all my fellow CSI fanatics; who else loved seeing Lady Heather whippin’ the crap outta that Neo-Natzi scum? That was just so cool. My mom was all gasps, but I was like ‘Keep goin’ girl! Yeah! Lay it on ‘im!’. Mom and Dad admitted that she was only doing what every parent would want to do if their child had been taken, starved, tortured, shaved and then mutilated like Lady Heather’s had. Let this be a lesson...never mess with a dominatrix...she has whips and chains and she damn-well knows how to use ‘em!

Good news/Bad news scenario. Dad’s only staying for about 5 days this time. He feels the need to work over time again. Probably due to our credit card debt. I was hoping that returning that necklace that they got me for Christmas would have helped, but it didn’t help nearly as much as I had guessed...Oh well.

Well, the wind is really starting to moan outside, and the tin on the roof is doing it’s marching band thing. I think I’m even beginning to hear some rain. So, that’s all for tonight everyone. Goodnight.

Wow...what day is it? Oh...it’s Survivor/CSI day. Right. Somehow this past week has been odd. It’s like I feel like I’m kinda in a depression...It’s weird because I’m not depressed about anything per se...it’s just, I don’t want to do anything or go anywhere and all I want to do is sleep. I’m bored with everything, and it’s getting on my nerves. I can’t write either, it makes me furious. I really want to get out of this funk.

Ok moving on. Yesterday was kinda fun. I kinda just fooled around all day till the afternoon. I stared watching Waterworld just to kill time. I got a call from Reiko. She said she wanted to come to church and wanted us to sit in the sanctuary while Bro. Packy preached instead of going to class. I was kinda ok with that. I never really enjoy class that much.

Mom and I went to Applebee’s before church. Mom got Nachos Nuevos...it’s was kinda like a taco salad...only three times the size of a normal taco salad. I got the Shrimp & Parmesan Sirloin Combo with a brownie desert. I totally enjoyed my steak. It was great (after I sent it back to the kitchen because I cut it open and it was red).

We got to church, and Reiko was no where to be seen, so I went to class. I got lucky because linuXman was teaching. I like listening to him teach stuff because he’s smart, and understanding what he says actually makes me feel like I’m smart. So, it’s a win-win thing.

Ok, so today...I slept till like 11:45 a.m. I was surprised. I mean, I haven’t slept like that since I’d just gotten out of high school. I got up, and I made my breakfast. Mom told me that she’s sick. Well, she’s got her usual nausea, dizziness and lightheaded stuff that she always gets every few weeks. So, we watched Gilmore Girls and American Idol that we’d missed just to kill time. Then I got a call from the furniture store I applied at. They want to interview me tomorrow at 11:30 a.m. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t excited abut that. It’s a great opportunity. But I’m not gonna get too hopeful. It’s just an interview after all. But I funny intend to call the staffing people after the interview just to check in with them.

I totally missed doing my Mid-Week Review for the TV shows that I always watch. I usually do that on Wednesdays. Mostly because Wednesday is the middle of the week, and because I’m posting rants in [profile] ruby_unicorn, thus I feel responsible to find something to ramble on about that’s positive. So, here’s a late review just for the heck of it.

/sigh I still haven’t finished watching Waterworld from yesterday. I’m gonna go do that...right after I make some college cuisine. Later!

msmoon: (WTF)
Beware, for I am: Image hosted by Photobucket.com Accomplished


Wow, today was full of stuff. I did stuff today. I surprised myself by doing stuff. I didn’t mean to; it just happened. Ok, so what did I do today? Well...

Started off just by waking up at 10. Mom and I watched Gilmore Girls (God, I love my girls!). Then I got ready and headed to town. Mom needed some stamps, I needed to mail my car note and deposited the money that I’d be paying the damn thing with. So I did that. Met up will an old friend from Fletcher there too. We talked for a few minutes then I went to Sonic and picked Mom and I up a burger.

Got home, and Mom and I watched CSI: Miami. I’m so glad it was new. We’ve been living in rerun city lately, and it really bothers me.

Then I checked stuff out online and I found that I could actually use Dream Weaver properly... Whohoo! That was so great. I was like “I can actually do stuff now and it’ll matter!” So, I started looking over my web site, you know to see realistically what type of time frame I’m on. The EQ Characters section is completely done (to my knowledge), but there’s still plenty of stuff to take care of on everything else. Still, having the EQ Characters out of the way is a huge hurdle that I’ve...uh...hurdled. So, what I did was, I totally took down everything that was on my site, and I put this page up as the index: Under Construction. I’m just sick and tired of the old site being up there and reminding me that I’ve done nothing, when really I’ve done stuff! It’s just not visiable. So I put this up in hopes of spurring me on. By the way, the section that’s finished is up and in its own spot. So if you guys wanna go over and have a look at it please do. I’d love someone to give me an unbiased opinion of the graphics and everything. Here’s a link to the EQ Characters page.

Also, I managed to catch Supernatural while the whole thing was updating. God, I love that show...and I don’t know why. I think I’ve already said that...oh well.

Cut so that those of you who don’t give a damn can just pass on )

And that’s all that’s really happened today. It’s a lot of stuff really. Anyone who takes a look at the EQ Characters page that’s actually up will vouch for that. I still haven’t taken my shower. Damn. I told my mom twice today “I’m gonna go shower.” And both times, I totally forgot. I told her once after Trading Spaces and then after tonight’s new episode of Gilmore Girls. In fact, I told her that “I’m gonna go shower now before I forget and have to do it when it’s way late.” Well, it’s way late. And I’m gonna go shower, dammit.

Goodnight.

are definitely a force to be reckoned with.
Still, you are not vicious by nature and would
prefer to be left in peace. You probably value
your solitude very highly - not that you don't
enjoy company, but sometimes you just need to
be alone - otherwise you begin to feel caged in
and confined. You might want to take a drive on
your own, just to feel the road beneath you, or
to sit alone on your balcony, watching the
world go by.

I LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!!!

OK, AMOS is back online, and I don’t have a lot of time. But I’m back up and running.

Quick update

—AMOS went away for nothing because SS-man still couldn’t install the hard drive in him.
—Sloths’ Con was great Friday! Had tons of fun.
—Our AC went out, we’ve had our windows open all weekend, which isn’t too bad since the weather’s so nice down here.
—Mom and I have been sick all weekend, we’ve only just started recovering to the point we can pass as human.
—I’m going for an interview today (why I’m so rushed).
—Thomas should be leaving today, that is if he shows up.

And...that’s all I can think of so far. Now that AMOS is up and running, I have to check e-mail and then I have to go and get ready for job interview stuffs. Blah u_____u. I’ll give a full update later, I promise.

Ja!

Yo. Today was ok I guess. A little disappointing. Brian told me the only thing I really need to get my hard drive into AMOS is a ’shell’ for the hard drive. Evidently the people who made the computer made places and stuff to hook into other hard drives…but they never made things for those hard drives to slide into or rest on.

Well, after Sunday school, Mom, Dad, I and Aunt Batty went out to eat at Western Sizzlin’, then we went home (had terrible reaction to food [don’t ask]), and then we got in our comfortable clothes and headed for Circuit City. Turns out, they don’t have any of those frames at the moment, so the guy was like,

“You could buy this USB 2.0 thingy here. It goes over your hard drive and then plugs into a USB port. It’s much easier than installing another hard drive!”

So, me wanting to resolve the issue quickly, went ahead and bought the thing. I figured, it might be easier and it would make the second hard drive portable. Well, we got home, and I used the (poorly written) instructions to figure out how to hook it up…nothing happened. I tried again. Nothing happened. I tried hooking it up to Irene, nothing happened. So, I then calmly gave up and put everything back in the box (minus my hard drive of course) and started reading the rest of the manga Reiko loaned me.

Oh yes, the manga. My thoughts on the manga series that Reiko loaned me are as follows:

W Juliet. OMG, I love this manga! If they ever make this into a anime, I will be buying it (if I have money of course =.=). It’s just funny, and quirky, and romantic, and sweet, and hilarious, and really smart! It’s better than

His and Her Circumstances and I only have the first manga of that! I really must speak with Chibi-chan about manga more often. I mean I love it, I just never shop for it or look around at it.

The Wallflower. Ok…I’m still not sure about this one…the guys in it…are totally freaky if you ask me. Some guys can pull off androgynism and look great!…others…I dunno. I think it’s something about the way they draw their lips…Also, I don’t much like that the main character girl (Sunako-chan) spends most of her time in chibi-form. Chibi-form is cute. But when the character begins to look like a chibi all the time, and only normal when she’s angry or determined or just when they need her too, is a little aggravating. I’ll admit, it is entertaining…but it’s also infuriating to a point.

Ok, that’s all I have to say about that. I think I shall now go and shower. I have to be up and looking for jobs tomorrow (/sarcasim. yay). Later.

WOOT! This is my first message to you from AMOS. I'm so excited! There was that time for a few days where we didn't have any internet, but now it's all fixed. Thank goodness -.- Oh, and there's so much to write on too. Let's see, there's work of course which is over (another Thank God). Then of course, AMOS and all the trouble it was to get him up and running. Oh and then there's the church and Reiko thingy. And the DVD that I finally got in. Ok...I need to calm down and actually explain all this.

I finally got off of work. I really began to hate the place. I just got so sick of dealing with all the mean, stupid, cranky people...and then there were the customers. Lets just say that some people managed to say quite a bit of hurtful things before I left. My opinions of the place were dampened significantly. However, there are a select few people there that I still think very nicely of. Notice I said ‘nicely’ not ‘highly’.

And then there's the 'other job' at the small engine place. Well that fell through. Apparently it's a problem if I have ADD...When I mentioned it, the lady said they all had ADD, so I never even considered that it'd be a problem. But I guess I was wrong. I'm not allowed to have faults, only they are excused for such things.

So, I'm unemployed ...again. I'll start looking for a new job soon. I'd really like to rest and finish cleaning my room. Now that it’s clean, I find that I enjoy it very much. I can’t wait to show it off to everyone who actually knows me and what my room is always like. It’s such a improvement. The only things that still need work are my closets (clothes & movie). But I’ll be able to work on them with the whole job thing out of the way.

Ok, the computer problems. /sigh. Well, first we bought the computer. AMOS was here and everything was looking up...then Brian came over to hook my other 250 gig hard drive into AMOS...Well, I was at work, so I’m not sure about everything that happened. Apparently I can’t put the 250 gig thingy into AMOS for some reason, but Brian said he ‘had another way to do it’ which mystified me when Mom said that. I was a bit disappointed, since I really wanted that 250 gig thingy in AMOS, but it didn’t bother me too much. I was really surprised when Mom said that we apparently had internet still on Irene...But then I realized that she was mistaken. Then I realized that we didn’t have internet at all. I wasn’t terribly upset by this…or at least, I would’ve been if I hadn’t been so tired from working and all. But then, reinstalling the internet became such a hassle.

But honestly, I do love the new computer. It’s got 820 Intel Pentium D processor, 1.0 GB memory, 250 GB hard drive and it can watch and record live TV with the personal Video recorder & FM tuner. Of course it isn’t hooked up to the TV, but still! It could do that. It also has this little media drive that fits stuff into and you can store the entire hard drive onto and just take it with you...which, I think is pretty cool. Then there’s the 9 in 1 memory card thingies. This way, I can actually take a picture and have it put on the computer. Now I can actually tell you that I’m doing something and that I’m taking pictures of it...and I can show you! /pets AMOS..

Anyway. Wednesday was…interesting. I went to work (9-4) and got this vibe from Mrs. D and Mrs. Shirley that I really didn’t like. Then a customer asked me a question, and I didn’t know the answer…I am still new, so that does tend to happen. So I referred them to Mrs. D and Mrs. Shirley. Whenever I started walking back over there to see if there was anything else that needed fixing, I over heard Mrs. D saying “Oh, Tracie doesn’t know anything! Thank God tomorrow is her last day!” and then she stomped off in a huff. I was partially hurt, but partially expecting it. So, I wasn’t in the most charitable moods yesterday. I got home, and Mom and I ate, and she got this thingy full of hot water and Epsom salt to soak my feet in…it doesn’t make all the pain go away, but it doesn’t help…sorta.

Anyway, we’re just sitting there and who calls but Reiko. I was like “?_?” But her mom wanted her to go to church, and she didn’t want to go to her mom’s church cause she doesn’t like that the people there are really touchy-feely. So, she asked if we’d pick her up. I said sure. It’s been a while since I’d seen her. I’ve already figured that she doesn’t really care about me as a friend, or at least I’m not on her list of priorities, but if she wants to forget about me and then just pick up out of the blue, that’s fine with me.

So we went to church, and we sat in the darkest corner of the room. We did a notebook role-play (except for those times we were interrupted when Reiko had to go and smoke -.-), and that was that.

And then…I got home…and I installed Black&White 2 into my computer. Of course, I don’t have that link that was sent to me for my tiger creature, but I didn’t mind. I was so happy to play. And play I did…for hours. I looked up after I’d finally established a huge town in one of the lands, and thought, “It’s probably late…I should shut ‘er down.” and when I logged off it was 1:05 a.m. O.O And then I realized I was hungry. =.= So I ate something and Watched Alice Through The Looking Glass. Oh yeah, that’s the other thing. I finally got that movie in. It came in /thinks Tuesday…I believe. I was so happy to finally get it in. And it’s as corny and interesting and funny as I remember it.

Today wasn’t much of anything worth recording. The only really great things that happened today were that I finally got the internet working and I finally got away from Hancocks. Other than that, there’s no use in relating the day.

When I finally checked my e-mail, I had like, 22 messages. I was a bit discouraged to see that no one that I actually knew had e-mailed me, they were all newsletters or junk mail. But then, I suppose no one really looks forward to my posting as much as I enjoy and look forward to everyone else’s posting. Such is life.

And with those happy words, I must be off. Though AMOS is up and running, there is much that I must download before he’s really up to par. I only just got GarGirlMM up on AIM! Oh well. That’s all for tonight everyone.


depressed
Your feeling is depressed...

You always seem to be depressed and cry easily. You
are a bit (ok, more than a bit) over emotional
and are too sensitive. You rarely smile, and
when you do, it's very weak... your eyes always
seem to be misty and though others have tried
to console you of your sorrow in the past, no
one can seem to get through to you that there's
more to life than being sad. No no one seems to
hang around you anymore which makes you feel
worse, and you feel as you're loved by no one
except maybe your family. People might see you
as the "girl who doesn't talk to
anyone", and you may be sort of a loner,
but that doesn't mean you want to be. What
hurts you is people being mean and even though
you might not get it that often, since you're
so sensitive it still makes you deal with pain.
You're not a leader and are usually the person
who stands alone, does what she's supposed to
do and nothing else.

Yo. Let’s see how we did on the check-list shall we?

1) Woke up – Check
2) Went to Work – Check
3) Hated every living second of work – Check
4) Went through horrific spasming pains because of work – Check
5) Hobbled home receiving death glares – Check

Yep! My day’s pretty much complete so far.

This frikkin job sucks now. It’s only been what? Two weeks so far. And already I hate it. I hate the unreasonable amount of physicality, I hate the way people expect you to know everything about everything, and I hate the way people seem to think the job is more important than life itself. Hello?! Helo~o! No job is worth my self esteem and physical soundness, thank you.

Today was the best so far /sarcasm. After getting to work I received the cold shoulder from even people I knew before I started working at the stupid place. Why? Well, because I called in sick the day before, of course! Like it’s my fault I’m sick or something. People were more distant towards me, they put me to work without wanting to talk or caring about what had happened yesterday. So, I was just like, whatever, right?

It’s not my fault this job’s a frikkin gauntlet!

Oh, and even better! I get there and a new lady is there. I’ve never seen her before. So I introduce myself and ask who she is and how long she’ll be working today. She says she’s working ‘9 to whenever’ and that she’s ‘the replacement for the girl that didn’t show up yesterday.’ The only girl I know of that didn’t show up yesterday...was me. And she’s all excited because she says she’s being trained to supervise nights and weekends. Hmmm, kinda sounds like the job description that was pitched to me too. That’s just great, I call in sick for one day and already they’re replacing me.

Honestly, I don’t care too much. She can have the damn job. It’s just so disappointing to get attached to these people and begin to rely on them, only to have them stab you in the back for being human. Honestly. I hope someone throws their shortcomings in their faces.

Then I checked my e-mail...I’m getting to where I want to change my e-mail address again, but I’ve forgotten how to configure Outlook Express /rolls eyes. I had 7 e-mails today. 1 was from [personal profile] rattgirl-chan, 1 was from a newsletter I subscribe to, and the other 5 were all “Pay off your mortgage!”, “Lose weight quickly!”, “Rapid Fire Ring tones!” and enlargement of organs that I don’t even have. Honestly! Why do we have to get cyber-junk-mail? Don’t we all get enough junk-mail in real life? But, even though I’ve gone over to hotmail every day and blocked all the companies who’ve sent me this junk, it still comes!

You know...I’m kinda in a justification/rant mode...I think I should do something, and then come back to the computer...maybe I’ll go shower...and have an egg roll...or 2. That might be a good plan. I have to eat an egg roll for Chibi-chan([profile] amai_tenshi) since today’s her birthday. I’m sure with how the mail’s been so screwed up around here, she hasn’t gotten my package yet.

That’s another thing that’s driving me crazy: the mail. I ordered a Alice in Wonderland / Through the Looking Glass DVD off Ebay weeks ago, and it still has not come in. Seller says she shipped the thing off, and she’s as concerned as I am.

OK...I’m really going to step away from the PC before I get aggravated again.

Later.

Yo. Since today I’ll be closing at work and I’ve no idea what that’s like, I figured I’d post now. I doubt very seriously that I’ll want to post tonight, that’s for sure. But I’ll probably post tomorrow before I head out to work again to relate what the Hancock’s closing experience is like.

This morning, I started out eating biscuits and white gravy for breakfast. Mom and Dad had gone to town to shop for a new lawn mower as our current one keeps eating up belts. Deja vu. For some reason this family buys mowers that start out wonderfully, but end up eating belts like there’s no tomorrow. It’s gotten to such a bad thing that we can’t actually mow the lawn when we want to.

So anyway. I watched last night’s episode of Ghost Hunters that I’d taped. It was ok. But kinda disappointing. They never catch concrete stuff on video or audio so they can never actually prove hauntings. Oh well.

Then I got on here and checked e-mail and all that. I visited Black&White 2’s section on the Game Spot web site. They had a review of it and a bunch of new screen caps. So I was checking that out most of the morning. Then I went over to Amazon and checked the status of my package which should come in today. It’s in Jackson MS...so there’s some chance of it getting here, but I doubt it. In a way I would rather it come in tomorrow anyway, because if it comes in today, I’ll be agonizing over wanting to play it and not being able to. But if it comes in while I’m at work tomorrow, I’ll just be able to wake up Saturday and play.

Speaking of Amazon, after looking through my wish list, I’ve realized that I really need to buy the rest of Slayers (Next & Try). Because they actually only have them new and used, and there’s only 11 of Try left. So, I shall try to place an order for that soon...but I’m not sure when. How weird would it be if I got Try before Next? I mean, I love Next as much as I love Try, but I could still get Next whenever I wanted to...I’d just really rather get them both at the same time. /shrug.

Well, I need to go and heat up my food. I’m getting hungry...I also need to finish up the clothes that are washing and drying. Then at 1:30 I’ll be leaving for work...I might leave later and buy some food for tomorrow...then again I could just do that tomorrow /rolls eyes.

Anyway...later.






Which X2 Character Are You?


MM

Yo. So, today wasn’t like yesterday or the day before in a few areas. First off, I was put to the task of hauling boxes of “Harvest” and Christmas things to the center of the main isle. Apparently, our customers are smart enough to find it if it isn’t put anywhere but smack dab in front of their faces right as they walk in the door. So the entire center isle, starting about 7 feet away from the front doors, is lined with Harvest and then Christmas nick-nacks (patty-wack, give that dog a bone!).

As well, it’s evident that the two hurricanes (Katrina mostly but Rita as well) have set us back in so many things. For one, the time. We have not had time to unload stock that’s been piling up for about 4 weeks. Also, on our sales. People are coming to buy fabric mostly. But very few of them are actually buying decorations and the nick-nacks that we’ve set up. Why? Because most of them are lucky to be alive and have their house, dammit! Of course people aren’t thinking about buy a wreath with a few squash and pumpkins and autumn colored leaves and stuff in it if they’re houses are flooded!

Ok, the rant for this section is over. So I worked with Mrs. Shirley, Mrs. Brenda, and Mrs. D (names may be changed once I recheck if that’s actually their names). Mrs. Brenda is nice and she’s very conscientious about what I may be learning. She goes almost out of her way to point things out to me so that I’m aware, even though I may still ask her a few times down the road. Mrs. Shirley...she’s nice enough, but she’s always running around...well like a beheaded chicken! She’s always so busy, and she’s always so tired of working there because of all the extra work she has to do. Then there’s Mrs. D. God, I love Mrs. D. Mrs. D is simple. She’s nice, but she certainly isn’t a worrier. She tells you what you want to know without holding your hand. Customers come up and ask a question and she’s got a simple answer for them.

“No.”

“It’d be over in that section.”

“Don’t lift things that are too heavy for you, Andrew can do that later.”

“That goes with the felts under 25% off. Always check your tags, they give hints.”

“I think that’s rayon, I’ll hunt for it later.”

“Would you just go home!”

God, I want to be this woman when I’m her age. She has a serious ‘not takin’ it’ attitude that I love. She’s not by any means rude, but she certainly doesn’t mince her words...if you know what I mean.

I didn’t really get my lunch break till about 1 this time. I was swaying on my feet from hunger too. I clocked out at 12:58 exactly, and promptly heated up the container of Mom’s spaghetti. It was so good, but I tell you, it was gone in 60 seconds. So, I’m sitting there, and about ¼ of the container is still full of spaghetti sauce. And, if you’re like me, you know the sauce is the good part. It’s the part that flavors the spaghetti after all. So, I couldn’t just dump it, and I had no intentions of downing it by itself (I could just see one of my supervisors walk in as I was doing that /shudder). So I look around, and I spot a box of Ritz crackers...glowing with angel’s singing in the background. And, as I’ve been repeatedly told, everything that’s left out on the table is fair game for anyone (but if it’s in the fridge and it isn’t yours, don’t touch!). So I grabbed a few of them and started dunking them in the spaghetti.Heaven! It was so good! I was amazed I’d never thought of it before...I will definitely have to jot that down whenever we have spaghetti again.

Ok, enough about lunch. So, I clock on again at 1:28, and head back out on the floor. My feet are still killing me, but I’ve learned to suck it up and deal. I knew from looking on the schedule that the infamous Holly would be coming in to work at 2. Holy is the supervisor on the floor. Her very name should send chills down new employee’s spines…Or at least, that’s what Mr. Davenport wants everyone to believe. Sorry, no go here. You see, I was given this speech when I first got hired on.

“Holly is the one you have to impress. If she doesn’t like you, you’re liable to go.” That’s great. It means he values the opinions of those under him who have a clue as to what is going on when he’s not around. Personally, I don’t care. I do my job to the best of my ability. If it’s not good enough then, maybe I shouldn’t be working there. There might be some people out there that fear their bosses and supervisors. But as for me, if I can’t talk with my boss as if he’s just your average Joe (or Jane), then that job’s not gonna work for me.

Here’s what I have gathered of Holly during the short time that I saw her. She works the hell out of her job. She’s tunnel visioned. I don’t know if she even so much as looked at me while she was working. She was just so busy focusing on what needed to be done, she didn’t bother. Also, she’s not that all-fire frightening. When I actually shook her hand, she smiled and seemed quite friendly.

But honestly, I didn’t really get that much of an impression of her other than that. I worked, and when I was done and Tiffany and Lucy had clocked on, I asked if they were ok with me clocking out. Then, I went out to the car and got my wallet. My Mom’s been mentioning that her best friend (fondly called ‘Aunt Batty’), love flamingoes. And we have some pretty fabric with flamingoes there. So I went and got the fabric, and had it cut. That was when I actually talked to Holly, as she was at the register. I introduced myself and she introduced herself and I said something like.

“I think you’re the one I’m supposed to be afraid of...” and she laughed. Then I said, “But Mr. Davenport said that about a lot of people around here...maybe that was just a joke.” I think she said she wasn’t sure. Either way, she was smiling, and I’m hoping that’s a good indication. I hate it when you can’t have an easy-going working relationship with everyone you work with.

OK, so, I went home and Dad had decided to buy me a new shower head...because, mine’s been wigging out on me for the past...year. He finally thought he’d had it fixed, but then it wigged again. So we went to Lowe’s and got that — didn’t take too long really. When I’m shopping, I like to look here and there, but mostly it’s about getting what I want to get done, and getting out. So then, we went to Outback to celebrate my birthday. Tomorrow is my birthday...I’ll be 22 years old. But Dad and Mom knew they couldn’t take me out since I’d be working 2-9. But then Dad’s usually off shore on my birthday, so just having him around is nice.

But anyway, supper was wonderful. Mom and Dad got salads. I got Toowoomba Pasta (kinda spicy), Dad got a steak, and Mom got soup. We were so busy sampling each other foods, that we all got full and it looked like our dishes were all half eaten. God, I love it when that happens. Because then the food is automatically mine. They don’t tend to like their left-overs as much, so they always say, “Oh, do you think you might want to eat this later, Honey?” and when I nod they decide they might as well get it to go then.

When we got home I watches Virginia’s Run. It was a cute little movie, but it was also extremely predictable. Still it was cute. But it won’t be making its way to the wish list. Which...is good, because I really don’t need to add items to that.

After putting that back in its case so that Mom can take it back to the Library, I got online and checked mail. Out of the 13 e-mails I had, only 4 were from people I know, and 3 of those 4 were newsletters or automated 3-mails. Figures. I did manage to talk a lot with my Twin-san ([profile] animequeen), which was good. We don’t get to talk often now that we actually have lives...I’m just glad that I actually have a life now, instead of being the dorky friend who can’t manager to do anything, and is always pining away for a friend. Oh wait.../laughs that describes me perfectly! Oh well.

Also, I got an e-mail today from Amazon, telling me that they had shipped my Black&White 2 game today...well that’s great, but you were supposed to ship it yesterday with 2 day shipping so I could have it by my birthday. It was last checked in at Lexington Kentucky at 7 something tonight. Unless they fly the sucker, there’s no way it’s getting here on time. But then, that would be so Amazon lately.

Oh well, I’d better go and take my pills so that I can get a good nights sleep (sarcasm? Hmm). I can actually sleep a little late tomorrow, but I do wanna wake up no later than 10. I want to put a load of clothes on to wash.

That will be all for this (huge) entry. Goodnight everyone.

Uber Weirdo

Yo. So, after finishing all the self-assigned work I was doing this morning, I found it even harder to keep up that “don’t feel sorry for yourself” routine. Once you get bored your mind starts to wonder around to places it probably shouldn’t go. Like about how worthless your life is. But I tried not to let it get to me. I cheered myself up by watching the Black&White 2 cow dance around on the videos I downloaded from the site. It’s really funny when the cow uses his udder as if it were a basket ball or something.

So, I tried brainstorming for the EQ Saga, and I might’ve gotten struck by lightning. I’ve been wondering a bit about how to introduce certain characters into the story. I think I may have figured it out...now I just need to figure out where and when they’ll come in. But at least I’ve got the how. Although I don’t know why I bother, since I still have a mound of papers on my desk. I always get distracted while I’m online. Mostly by reading stuff (friends’ journal entries, fan fics, new stuff off the B&W2 site, etc). But still, it makes me feel like I’m lazy. I’m not lazy; I’d ADD. ADD = Easily distracted & forgetful.

Speaking of trying to be creative; I also tried to make a Thundercat icon. I saw this pic up on [profile] purrsia-san’s site. I was just browsing through the Lion-O pictures and I found this one, and the first thing I did when I saw it was to shriek “HUGS!” at the top of my lungs. I was very glad I was still home alone at the time too, or my Mom would’ve given me such a strange look. But I saw the pic and thought “That would make a really funny icon.” And I know I don’t really do it justice, but I was the only one around when I thought of it. Yes. My name is MM, and I am an uber weirdo.

So after rewatching all the crazy Black&White 2 footage till I’d gotten board with it (and believe me, that takes a lot), I decided to watch the second Gnome Invasion video that my Twin ([profile] animequeen) had sent me ages ago. I mean, it’s totally hilarious. All these World of Warcraft Gnomes moving in mass...they all have pink hair in cute pigtails and they’re only like 2 feet high...but there are hundreds O.O It made it even cooler that there’s this guy in the background singing “Throw up your rock fist if you’re feeling it when I drop this!” Hard rock playing while little gnome women swarm the screen...wicked. But Twin-san had a Gnome character in this named Shock tarts, and that’s why she was always so interested in Gnomes. Behold! )

On another note. I have decided that [livejournal.com profile] _guinevere_’s little icon will be the Yoda icon. Because not only does she know about games, she works at Game Stop. So her name will now appear like this: [profile] _guinevere_. That’s all for this segment.

...Anyway. I’ve written enough for tonight. I suppose I’ll write again...whenever...I write again. Goodnight.


You are Palm OS. Punctual, straightforward and very useful.  Your mother wants you to do more with your life like your cousin Wince, but you're happy with who you are.
Which OS are You?

Yo!!!!! I LIVE! *cough cough sputter, clears throat*. Um...Yeah.

So, the last few days have been...trying. To say the least. Not knowing whether you’ll have a home to return too is almost as bad as having that home and it not being fully functional. We are only now completely up and running (internet and all ^.^ ). So, I shall now post what has happened over the past following days. I’ve been writing a lot...that is your only warning. This entry is gonna have some serious tags...Enjoy!

Feeling too much

Yo. Hm...Today wasn’t fun. Went and applied for something (anything) at the local hospital. Then I went and—under the insistence of my parents—filed for unemployment. /sigh. But anyway. Came home...did stuff...that’s life. God, I hate my life.

I finally started working on tagging 2002. I did from October – December, but I couldn’t find the motivation to do anything else. The truth is, everyone’s been trying to get on the computer right as I try to sit down and do stuff. So, I finally gave up, and let them have it. Now that it’s late, no one wants it. But of course, since it is late, I don’t want to stay on too long. Complications.

Called Chibi today, because I knew she wouldn’t get around to doing it. We’re all set to get together Saturday, if nothing else comes up that is. I can’t wait. I always laugh a lot, and get in a good mood around her (whether I want to or not). I could use the encouraging.

After sorting through various entries, I came across one that had me laughing so very, very hard. This entry back in Oct. of 2002, called Weird Dreams O.o;;;;;. It was a half-dream entry that I didn’t even remember having. The idea of what I’m wearing and what I’m going through in the dream is so bizarre, but fun at the same time. I totally went analytical on the thing though, and I was like,

“Hmm...well, you can tell I wasn’t pleased with my brother at the time...and the unknown husband shows a bit of my wanting to be loved and safe...and ...well...the EQ stuff is just from playing Shenna too much on EQ -.-”

But it was fun reading over it.

My prayers go out to [livejournal.com profile] bri_chan who just lost her cousin in a car accident. Just reading her words makes me so sorrowful...Like I want to consol her, yet anything I could do would seem so inadaquite. I barely know the girl...Damn empathy...

It’s been a long day...and I’m getting tired. I’d prefer to sleep in tomorrow, but with the way my dad’s been lately, who could tell? So goodnight, minna-san. Sleep well.


intelligence
People see intelligence in your eyes. You probably
enjoy reading a good book and are pretty good
at outsmarting people. You like finding the
meaning behind things and you know how to hold
an intellectual conversation. The downside of
this is that people can mistake you for a nerd
or people who aren't as smart as you will get
angry and try to bring you down. Don't let
them, though! You should prize your
intelligence and not worry about what those
people think. Btw...can you help me with my
homework?


What can people see in your eyes?(great ANIME pics)((IMPROVED!!!))
