Stayed up late last night teaching my little sister basic algebra for her test, and when I woke up I felt completely wrecked.

Got to school, and then was evacuated from the building during second period because whoever lit up the bathrooms on Friday did it again. And because this is my school, they're using an accelerant instead of just setting some paper towels on fire. So I got to stand out in the cold with no jacket for twenty-odd minutes.

I heard the teacher who put the fire out collapsed from smoke inhalation and they had to take him to the hospital. This is so stupid.

And then, besides being practically comatose for the rest of my school day, it starts raining when I go home. I had to sprint for my boat, so I was out of breath and sweaty, and then my bus pulled away before I can get there. And after seeing another bus pull up I switched lines only to have that bus pull up as soon as I leave the line.

I just. Feel incredibly low and icky and ready to cry. I want to bury myself in my blankets and switch off the world.

Also, sorry for spamming you guys. Haha, why can I not update like a normal person.

Couple days ago I had to call my cousin back because I missed her call. I had an embarrassingly large, (what I am assuming was) panic attack and needed to sit down and breathe deeply with some tea before being able to do anything. God, I've really got to get over this thing. Or at least do it in private.

Also. If I ever mention to any of you that I'm going to watch the Investigative Discovery Channel, please smack me over the head if the program is about a notorious killer. I'm good with the other ones, but some of those are just...eugh. /just came out from marathoning the Monster of Belgium and Arthur Shawcross

Once December rolls around I'm going to put up a post for you guys to leave me your addresses if you want Christmas cards from me. BE THERE. BE READY. I'M GOING TO SEND YOU INCREDIBLY STUPID JOY IN A SMALL PIECE OF PAPER.

Someone.



Anyone.




Tell me to work on my app.



I need to get it done by tonight and I'm so close but I'm just. Freezing up.

Nothing's happened that I need to report, I just wanted to post and wish everyone a happy Veterans Day (or the equivalent where you live).

This holiday makes me kind of thoughtful. My grandpa fought in WWII, and I grew up listening to his war stories. Now that he's not here it's been a little bit of melancholy mixed in with the pride.

...oh wow, that was pretty serious for me. Geez.

I missed my boat for the nth time today and nearly burst into tears in the terminal. I really, really despise my commute. And I'm feeling more tired, not less. /pounds desk in sorroooow

Thanksgiving is coming soon, so I've got that to look forward to! I'm going to bake like a monster, and my cousin is coming up from college so I can dork it out with her. ;3;b

AND HERE, TAKE THIS BECAUSE I AM LATE AND LAME.

ANON MEME

A kid in my health class asked me that question today. He told me it was because I looked Russian. I-I'm Irish and Italian. orz /pats self over, looking for stray vodka bottles

( And here is where I ramble on about roleplay. Because it's srs bsns. )

And to make this a little more interesting, a meme.

MEME TIME:

What has surprised you the most about me (if anything) since joining my flist/"friending me"? Was anything completely unexpected or have I always fit the picture of me you have in your head?

Post this in your own journal and see how you have surprised people!

Ahaha, I'm not a surprising person. The closest I used to have was my age, but even that's moot now.

Oof, I've got an essay to write that I've been putting off all week. It's not too bad, though, just for English. I'm feeling a little more peppy lately, although now I'm freezing. Stupid winter.

I have Tuesday off! This is a double blessing, because it's for Election Day and that means the annoying campaign ads will stop running. I'M NOT FROM NJ, I DON'T CARE ABOUT WHO'S ELECTED GOVERNOR.

Mm. I should start making my cousin some baked goods. I haven't sent anything down to her yet.

AND:

Roleplay Love Meme

AHAHAHA I LOVE MY LAYOUT AGAIN. I MISSED THIS FEELING.

So really I just got fed up and edited my own banner to go on top of a basic layout, but. Now I don't sigh every time I check my friends page. ♥

That is all for now. Carry on with your day.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN, EVERYONE!

I hope that you get tons of candy if you are so inclined, whether you go out to get it or just steal it from the bowl. ;D

Also on a slightly more serious note, it seems that all of my sister's friends are being absolute biatches to her. Not cool. I'm going to have to go hose them with pen ink or something. D<

AHAHA. I FINALLY SORTED OUT PAYPAL AND NOW I HAVE MY DELICIOUS PAID ACCOUNT BACK.

WITH 100 USERPICS. Sob my Ukraine account had 100 before my own, that's kind of pathetic.

/finds more Shakespeare quotes

/uploads pointless icons forever

Also. Tomorrow is parent-teacher meetings at my school, and for once my mom has the time to show up. I...don't really know what's going to happen. I've been doing well, but still. Parents and teachers aren't a good combination. :/

Ohhh, I've never felt more like a history geek than today when I realized I actually enjoyed the class so much that I was psyched to take a test. America, why so epic. orz

AND. Another meme, since I like them and so does everyone else, I think?

The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really, we know nothing about each other.

So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about.

Comment and I'll tell you why I love you or why you are awesome or BOTH because the two are generally interlinked. Don't be shy about posting: if you read my journal enough to see this there is a pretty darned good chance that I adore you.

Ahaha, like you guys don't know I love you all already. But come, if you want me to make a mushy fool of myself~! ♥

I've been so tired lately, even though I've been getting better hours of sleep. Oof, my CFS better not be kicking in again. o9

Parents are getting on my case to kick the college search up a notch. The way things are looking now, I'll be taking a double major in most places to get what I want. WHY MUST I ALWAYS CHOOSE THE PATH OF MOST WORK.

Also. Today my mother told me that my dad thinks (and has thought for quite some time) that I have OCD. Daddy, it's so cute that you care like that, but I'm not nearly as cool as Mr. Monk.

Saw my cousin yesterday, since her boyfriend's coming down from Pennsylvania to see her today. That meant I didn't get to forge ahead into my first battle with lemon/orange curd, but I did have a fun visit. And I cranked out some pudding cookies.

I've noticed that I'm consuming tea at a ridiculous pace lately. I think a couple days ago I had...three, maybe four cups in one day? I'm going to clean the cabinet out like that. ;A;

Also, need to focus moar on RP. I've been writing stupidly large amounts of fic recently, but I can't seem to thread and write at the same time. Multitasking, I fail at it in all forms.

Here, have some more memes to make up for it. Feel free to beat me to kingdom come on them. ♥

the I AM meme

THE+3/-3MEME

My cousin's coming home from college for a few days on Saturday, and I get to bake lots of goodies for her. Also I passed my Spanish oral and had a nice time at the Model UN meeting. Yaay. ;A;

Now I just need to work on some RP-related things and get moar sleep and everything'll be all peachy keen.

YOU GUYS ARE THE WORST FRIENDS EVER. I AM NEVER COMING OVER TO YOUR HOUSE TO ASK FOR CANDY AGAIN. >O

Oh god, this weekend was so much fun. My dad drove me down to look at Georgetown and then we stopped to eat Maryland crabs. They were so messy and delicious and mmmm.

And then he asked me if I wanted to go to the New York Anime Festival the next day. All on his own. It was really touching, I nearly cried tears of happiness.

When I was there I cosplayed for the first time (Austria from Hetalia, if anyone's curious). Ffgdhsja that was the best thing ever, even before the epic photoshoot I was having so much fun and fffff. I also bought an Auron action figure. ♥ ♥

Now, have a HMD meme to make up for my being late in posting~

The How's My Driving? Meme

GODDAMMIT. I thought I was in one of my RP journals and changing the layout but LJLogin lied to me and it was this one and I ended up erasing my personal layout AND THE PLACE WHERE I GOT THE CODE FROM IS FLOCKED NOW AND IT WAS FROM A TIME WHEN I WAS TOO N00BY TO SAVE IT TO WORD AAAAAGH FML FGESAHJK.

I-I guess this means it's time to finally change. I loved Howl, though. And it was all personalized, I won it in a contest. ;A; /goes to mourn and then beat herself for stupidity

I'll um. Have a real update when I fix this. 8D;;

I'm thinking of taking up the piano again. This would be the third time I went back to lessons, and I always had to be forced at knifepoint to practice, but...I really miss it. I loved the actual lessons, and the playing. The timing just feels right, although I really have no idea when I'd go once school starts up again. :/

Speaking of which, my cousin went off to college last week. She's got more days off than I do, but I still miss having her around. She's my best friend, s-sob.

I need to get re-motivated cosplaying and rolpelaying-wise. I'm feeling a little tired every time I think about being productive with them. Row row, fight the powa.

Yeeeeah~! In case any of you guys were curious, the cops finally found our stolen car! \o/

Turns out some druggies had gotten high and taken a joy ride in it and apparently...crashed into a concrete wall? I'm not really sure on all the details, just that they crashed and we got the car back all seriously dinged up. But at least it's back.
