The Journal of My Fangirlyness

| Oct. 12th, 2009 07:10 pm Laptop is working again~...sort of. It's on life support, really. Flash drive containing OS, USB wireless thing, separate keyboard, no internal speakers. Only the first two pose any major problems, though. I have to persuade my parents to buy an external hard drive(but there's always the iTunes trump card - wouldn't want to lose all my expensive music, right?) and a USB wireless card. I have an extra mouse my friend gave me, and keyboard he's lending till he gets the one I gave him back(as soon as someone else gets their own), and I have headphones I can use. So, I am in a good mood! Current Location: Home Current Mood: cheerful Current Music: Phoenix Wright theme music(of some sort)

Oct. 2nd, 2009 06:34 am Writer's Block: Life is a masquerade
Ha, I'm dressing up for candy until I can't get away with trick-or-treating anymore. XD As the Merchant, no less. It depends on the costume, I've been planning to be the Merchant since...last November. But sometimes the simpler stuff, like a witch or things like that, I leave for October. And I basically tell everyone who asks. Or sometimes bring it up myself. :)Current Mood: Whaddaya buyin'?

As childish as it probably sounds, my entire life I've wanted to be a vet. Well, okay, not the whole thing, but it was all related to caring for animals. I think I have a shot at it, the only problem being that Jersey is lame in the vet-school area and has none. I can try Massachusetts, though, and if I spend a few years living there and keep up my good grades, I think I can do it.Current Mood: hot Current Music: For Whom The Bell Tolls - Metallica

| Jul. 27th, 2009 06:15 am Today, the icon means *me*. Because somehow I was stupid enough to not pay attention to where I put my drink and knocked it all over my laptop. Some connector with the hard drive apparently shorted out and my dad doesn't want to send it out for repairs because they'd cost nearly as much as the laptop and we never got accidental damage coverage(Murphy's Law in action). So, he's instead going to a friend - who won't even be home to work on it until the end of the week. D:
In the meantime, I can use my parent's laptop, but not the IM, so...Nova, if you need me, email me.
On the bright side...I have a pretty betta! His name is Optimus, and the second I saw those blue and red scales I had to have him. Or the turquiose one a shelf above him, he would have been Blurr. Current Location: Home Current Mood: indifferent

| Jun. 19th, 2009 06:54 pm So, if a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush... ...how many birds in the window is it worth?
Yeah, one just flew into my back door. Looked okay, if a little dazed. Sort of funny - I just glimpse out of the corner of my eye something through the curtains, hear "THUD," and look outside to see a cute little sparrow on the deck, probably thinking "what the bird-heck kind of forcefield do those things have?!"

| Feb. 18th, 2009 07:23 pm Okay, possibly the funniest movie I've ever seen confirmed... ...is "Pride and Predator."
Yes. As in Jane Austen and Human-Hunting-Alien. BEST CROSSOVER EVER!

| Feb. 4th, 2009 07:18 pm I hate listening to this... "This" here means my mother's radio program. I forget exactly who is on it, but it seems mainly to be talking about everything bad ever about Democrats. I'm sick of it. I hate politics.
*sigh*And this is going to go on for the next four years at least. would I be convicted of destruction of property if I got a bat and smashed it now? Current Mood: gah. Current Music: Under the Rose - H.I.M

| Jan. 19th, 2009 09:11 pm I. Hate. Rockbox. So, my friend gets the need to put this program on my iPod. I don't really get a say in it, but fine, whatever.
It turns out that Rockbox does not keep your playlists, does not work with my iHome(there is NO POINT in having one if it can't be connected to music!) and is insanely, stupidly hard to stop from loading. I reset my iPod about five times and the battery died and I WANT IT OFF NOW AND I CAN'T FIND THE FILES I NEED TO DELETE!
needless to say, I am NOT HAPPY. Current Mood: pissed off

| Jan. 18th, 2009 07:49 pm I have learned why Civilization is so awesome. My brother bought it, I started playing it and got hit hard with the Tetris Effect. Beating up those irritating people who decide "oh, we signed a treaty? screw it, DIE!" when they send Legions in and I send out Ninja Tank Armies(one of the funnier names in the game, seriously)? Awesome. Also, Gandhi - fricking GANDHI! - declaring war on me was the funniest thing in that. However, certain warlike nations are irritating once you lose the Great Wall's effectiveness. I try to make peaceful victories(I let India live once and got a Cultural victory), really I do! It's not my fault they break their treaties and I get forced to crush them!
Also, catapults and cannons = irritatingly weak defense. I can beat up archers and such with them, but one hit, even to a cannon, and they're down. Artillery's just as annoying, but much, much better when you get three. Spies are also fun to play with. I have yet to send a Spy Ring into somewhere, but I think it will be China. They keep trying to kill me. And maybe nuke them after if they're really bad. That has a good animation.
It's kinda funny to have a leader telling you you'll be hated worldwide for using the nuke when they're the only civilization left, too.

| Jan. 1st, 2009 11:40 am You know those "creepy haunted doll" movies? You know, the ones with the living, talking doll that ends up driving the person crazy and/or causing their/the doll's death/destruction? Just a random little thought: what exactly would happen if the person who got stuck with the doll didn't freak out and was nice to the doll? Would it all turn out okay?
Yes, my brain goes in weird places when it wanders.
(I haven't actually *seen* any of those movies. I have too many toys still to have my imagination go nuts with them) Current Mood: intrigued Current Music: Creepy Doll - Jonathan Coulton

| Dec. 19th, 2008 03:42 pm dammit, school officials. Was it REALLY necessary to keep us all day when it was snowing for five hours and our district was the only one open? Did it not occur to you that the upperclassmen who drive don't want ice and snow and slush under their tires?
(obviously, I am not included, but it was dumb.) On a semi-related note, snow crunches oh-so-much more satisfyingly under your shoes than slush.
Also, yet more hate for my bio teacher. There is NO need whatsoever to give your innocent class two pages to write on the cell cycle and DNA replication when it's the weekend and snowing.
*sigh*my term paper is due on the fifth and I haven't even finished the outline. procrastination sucks.
On a considerably lighter note, yesterday was Holiday Express. I danced with the Grinch! =D They should put that song on a CD, it's excellent. Still wish they'd sung Home For The Holidays. Went to a nice restaurant before the show, too. Current Location: Home Current Mood: drained Current Music: When My Heart Finds Christmas - Harry Connick Jr.

| Nov. 24th, 2008 03:57 pm *still needs a happy icon* *curls up, purrs* Today was a good day. ^^ I found that one of my middle-school friends shares my opinion on Twilight and on certain books(The Sight ftw!), argued about it with a classmate, and had a cupcake after school! The dance team sold them to fundraise, so I dug a dollar out and bought myself and my friend one. Very, very, very good.

Number one is definitely a TFA Prowl. I want it so much, buuut I'm not sure about it, considering it'll be a hot toy this year, I bet. In fact, more than half my list can be summed up with "TFA toys." I also want WALL-E, because, c'mon. Cute little pitiful robot with a fondness for show tunes? Yeah, gotta have that. I've heard good things about both His Majesty's Dragon and Discworld, so I'm hoping for those.Current Location: Home Current Mood: eager Current Music: Master of the House

Nov. 12th, 2008 09:27 pm Writer's Block: When the Boss is Away…
If school counts...I have books. Many. And when I get my work done early(whee for simple geometry about triangles and calculating angles - so far, anyway), I pull on out. Lately it's Oliver Twist, when I finish that I want to get to work on our school copy of Great Expectations(I like finishing school books early. Where The Red Fern Grows nearly made me cry at the back table. D: It helps that if we have to read aloud in school, it goes mind-numbingly sloooow and I've finished the page before the reader's done with a paragraph, so I read further and keep a finger where it should be in case I get called on. No, it doesn't always work,) and then maybe finish Specials again. Oh, and there's still Twelve Days of Terror in my backpack...And if my books run out, I have my emergency fic notebook. If all else fails...mindstories. Also a handy outlet for when you have something you love but know is terribly Sue/stupid and don't dare share it! :D
