Meme

2009-10-13T05:32:42Z

I was bored, there was a meme. What're ya gonna do? SO! I'm forced by the meme to say "Reply to this meme by yelling "words!" and I will give you five words that remind me of you. Then you will make an entry explaining what those words mean to you."
Which you too will have to add if you comment on this.

Also, if you REALLY want, you can give me more words to add.

Words I got from King:

Puppy (also got this from Ding and Dotty): Nyahaha~ Well, what can I say? I am what I am. And what I am is a puppy. Not physically of course. I KNOW I'm a person. >___> BUT I act like a puppy a lot of the time. Not always on purpose, either. XD Like, I run up stairs on all fours and I brush my hair out of my face the way a puppy might and I LOVE chewing things etc etc etc. And apparantly I can do puppy eyes that are worse than seeing many cute things go into a blender. *shrug* It's just who I am. :p
Also, puppies are awesome and adorable and I want one again. Or three.

Disney: I've always loved Disney movies. I had a long period where I thought it would be "uncool" to admit it, which was stupid... but yeah. 'Course, I didn't like 'em as much as I do now. XD I guess I kinda missed out on most of my childhood, so watching Disney movies now is kinda a way to make up for it. ^^; Trying to make sure I'll never grow up, maybe.
And Disney the place (world) will be AMAZING. Seriously. Can't wait. Well... I can, 'cause I have to, 'cause I don't have a TARDIS. But that's not the point.

Rallionland: Hah. Not much to say. It's where I am. Mentally? Physically? I'll NEVER TELL! MWAHAHAHAHA!

Colt: :3 My better 0.5; the Sora to my Riku, the Aladdin to my Jasmin and the Alice to my Hatter. Need I say more? 'Cause I can if you want. :p I just don't want to bore all three of you with puppy-love stuff. :p

Internet: My primary source of contact with most of my friends and one of my bigger pass-times. What more needs to be said?

Words I got from Ding:

Dong: For those of you who are more observant you might notice that Ding and Dong go together. To you I give a very unenthusiastic clap and a sarcastic "Very good." To the rest of you: start reading into things more. OR ELSE! CONSPIRACY MAN!
But I digress slightly. Perhaps I should explain. But I won't, 'cause it's funnier this way. It's one of my nicknames, in any case. ^______^

^_____^: Hahaha~ Ding, you rock. The "word" she's given is the smiley I use most often by FAR, and surely you can see why. He's so cyuuuuute! ^_____________________^ See? Mr Om Nom is happy.

Accent (ahahaha): >___> I don't have one. Ding, you suck. <____< Mr Om Nom is displeased. T_______T

AVEN: Oops, missed this out the first time around. Well, if you don't know what it is, too bad. XD Not hard to find out. Can't be bothered explaining. Does anyone that doesn't know what it is even read this?

Words I got from Dotty:

Handbag: A haaaaaaaaaaandbaaaaaaaaaaaaag?

Asexy: I am what I am. And what I am is awesome. And that's pretty much what the word means.

Chat: It needs to come back. I miss it so. Many good times were had.

Couch: An in-joke. You don't get to know. Unless you ask of course.

Words I got from Paw:

CHOCOLATE!: It is good. Nuff said.

DR. WHO!: NYAAA~ Better than good. Dr. Who trumps chocolate anyday. Haven't seen it? GO WATCH NOW!

SILLY!: Blah. You people are giving me boring words. Seriously. There's not even anything to say about this one.

ROWWERBWADING!: Another in-joke that you'll just never ever ever understand.

SCHATTIG!: Schattig tepels.

Morn'. Been a while since I've posted on here. My log is now being written on paper, as I can be more detailed about it that way, and various other reasons. I suppose I could copy it over to here if people want, or sommat.

ON to the meme!
Association Meme: Comment to this post and I will give you 5 subjects/things I associate you with. Then post this in your LJ and elaborate on the subjects given ('cept I'm being lazy and only elaborating slightly).

These five were given to me by xx_sora_xx.

1) Fullmetal Alchemist
This is one of the many manga I'm current;y keeping up to date with, and probably my favourite of them. Read it. Now. Seriously.

2) Squall Leonheart
The first and thus far only character I've ever roleplayed, the main character of FF8 and in many ways the fictional character I relate to most.

3) Cosplay
A hobby of mine, sorta. I'm giving it a break until I have a sewing machine, 'cause I can't really do much without it.

4) Art
I'm pretty useless as far as any sort of art goes at the moment, but I'm looking into courses to help me with that. Watch this space.

5) Zack Fair
Probably my favourite character from the FF7 series. He's just so cool~

Well, I was REALLY happy a few moments ago. Now I just feel like shit. I can't be bothered explaining why.

Anyway, today was pretty interesting. I'm just gonna quote what I said about it when I was in a better mood.
"My day was GOOOD! I woke up and bummed around for a bit, and then I went to Academy (without signing off, so I got lots of messages just now), and did sword work for a while, then got a good shwack to my finger and had endorphin induced goodness and I saw you and said hello and I was kinda sad I couldn't stay and talk, but then I was whisked off to the after hours place, but it's a dentistry now. So we scurried off to the OTHER after hours place and they glued my finger together and everyone was really quiet during most of this, so I kept making tasteless jokes. And then we had PIZZA! And now I'm here. ^___________________^"

So yeah.
Other than that the week has been good and bad.
That's all.

Saw it coming.

2008-09-03T06:08:05Z

So yeah, if you haven't yet heard, me and Mel are over. It was just a matter of time, really.
That was a waste of a trip.

In other news, mock exams are next week, and I've still yet to do any study. I'll probably just to a last minute cramming session before each exam like last year and fail most of them. But atleast it'll give me a rough gauge of what I know.
Also, I'm supposed to have learned three or four scripts by now. I haven't. Heck, I only just finished writing one of them (still doesn't feel finished, though).

Also next week is Pan, which the Academy is helping out with. So I'll be doing Thursday (only day without exams) and someone else will do the same part on Friday.

Oh yeah, and I've got like, three things on Saturday I'm supposed to go to, and they all overlap. Methinks it's gonna be rather eventful.

So, the funeral was yesterday... I had to help carry the coffin. Apparantly that's an honour, but really I don't see the honour in trying not to trip up on all the chairs (they made the isle WAY to small) while carrying a box with a dead person in it.
And I didn't really know anyone there, either. Luckily I avoided having to talk to anyone strange by busying myself talking to the siblings.
And apparantly I wasn't looking formal enough, so afterwards during the food time I made a tie out of a napkin and attached it to my shirt. I thought it was rather styley.

In more interesting news, I finished my monologue which I'd been sort of half working on for about a month (after scrapping it completely once or twice). The task was to write a 4min(ish) monologue based on a chosen theme (depression in this case). Me being me, I had to make it undecipherable, which made it take about 50 times as long to write as it should have.
Still needs a bit of tweaking I think, but it'll do. Now I just have to learn it and ruin (read:perform) it.

And I'm going to Academy again tomorrow. No idea who I'll be killing... guess I'll just wait 'n' see. ^_^;

I've been having a lot of VERY frequent and VERY sudden mood changes lately. It seems the smallest thing will set me into a new mood. XD
I'm not really complaining... much... since it means I'm happy a lot more often than usual, but it seems to be sending me further into both extremes than I'd normally go.

Also, today my mum took me shopping for a new pair of pants and some shoes.
I HATE shopping with my mum.
It wasn't TOO bad since I wasn't going for a new wardrobe, so getting the pants was nice and straight forward.... but the shoes! I checked out some boots that I liked, which were $80 or so, and fairly robust. Nice and comfortable, too. Unfortunately this store didn't have any in my size, or any other boots I liked.
Now, instead of just leaving the store and checking another one (There's three more down that street), my mum forced me to try on a pair of shoes identical to the ones I'm replacing. They're about $140.
My mum payed, so I'm not TOO fussed, but I'd have preferred some boots (I made that rather clear, too). She bought the shoes, instead. >_<
So now I have to wait until these wear out (A year and a half or so) before I can get some footwear I actually like. -_-u

Nothing else to report, I don't think.
Oh! Wait! That's right. One of my grandparents died last week, so I have to go to the funeral. I think it's tomorrow or sommat.

At Academy yesterday I was told that one of my friends was having a birthday party thinger later that day. I had already been invited to it, but hadn't been told when it was until then. So I turned up fashionably late (it started at 6:30, I got there at 10:00 or so. XDD) with a present (well.. okay, actually I didn't have a present, and I drank their alcohol and ate their food..... but I was told last minute, so my presence was a present. :P) and got myself quite nicely smashed. ^_____^ I'm such a happy drunk. XD
I get really tired really suddenly, though, so at about 1 in the morning when I just about fell asleep on him he decided it was time to take me home. XD
And I'm lucky, too, 'cause I don't get hangovers. :P I just get the WORST case of the munchies.

I'm going out drinking with the same person next weekend, so that should be fun, too. ^__^

Unfortunately though, it's getting more and more apparant that I need to go out and get some exercise. I'm beginning to develop something of a gut. >_>

That's all the news for now, I think. ^__^ Ja

Another update

2008-08-09T07:40:46Z

Went to the Pre-ball today, since Simon wanted pictures of everyone. I'm not going to the actual ball.... but that's not the point.
So yeah, that was interesting. Good food, at least.

Also, went to Academy (the Academy of Useless and Violent Knowledge) for the first time in.... two months? Something like that. Anyway, we're doing proper choreography work now, not just learning different techniques for the sake of it. Not sure where I'll fit in for the actual show, but I was filling in for someone today. Got to teach people how to beat me up with a teddy bear. XD

And I'm not sick anymore.... it lasted a week, which is unusual for me. Normally when I get sick it lasts a day or two at most.

Not looking forward to exams. I expect I'll fail the majority of them and have to come back again next year to get the rest of my credits for UE. >_>

Hmm.... I think that's about all I have to report.

2008-07-17T05:08:07Z

I'm getting ridiculously tired for no reason recently... I sleep roughly 12hrs a day and I'm still tired when I wake up. Probably have an iron deficiency again. >__<
And my mum's trying to make me eat more, even though I'm already almost overweight. XP I probably would eat more often if there were anything in the house worth eating.
Still haven't found a job, though to be fair I haven't really looked. I need to write a CV first, which means I have to wait for school so I can get the URLs to the two websites our careers person advised so I know what it's supposed to actually LOOK like. XD

Once I get a job (hopefully a weekend one, since Mel is always busy in the weekends), I'll have MONEY, and will be able to afford things like a haircut, and train tickets, and chocolate/other junk food. And alcohol, but I'll try to hold back on that if I can...

I have no idea how I'm going to survive school. I have less than a term left to get almost all the credits I need for UE.... I can't concentrate, I'll be horribly tired, and about halfway through the term is Arts Week, which I'll be expected to help with and probably perform during. *sigh* Oh well, I'll just have to see what happens. Maybe I'll have to do some of this studying stuff afterall. XD Lately I've been going "Hmm... I should study. Maybe I'll just play a game first. Hmm.... and then I need to check the forums. And then I need to check my emails. And then I should probably play another game...." XP

I'm going to fail.

Hmm, a post? Madness!

2008-07-10T12:05:32Z

I decided to jot down a few things before I forgot about them. And then it turned into a full post, so I guess I'll end up using this after all. :P
Well.... until I forget about it.

So for those who don't know, I'm in a band. Somehow. I play keyboards at the moment, but when Brogan gets around to buying a synth system we'll share that and both use keyboards (he plays 'tar and is the lead vocalist at the moment, but he wants to ditch the guitar for keys anyway), which could be VERY interesting. Oh, and I do backup vocals, too. Apparantly I'm not too bad, or something. But then I guess I technically practice everyday by singing along to whatever pops up on my playlist. XDD

Oh, and I've no idea how to actually PLAY the keyboard, by the way. I just kinda play around during practices to see what sounds good and then we roll with whatever we come up with. We've only got one song at the moment, and the only recording we have of said song was done with a REALLY bad sound tech, but ya know. We're getting there. Half way through the second. ^___^ Just gotta figure out how to get gigs now. Well, soon.

And I recently borrowed an Enter Shikari album off a friend. It's a good band, although their screaming gets a bit much occasionally. Been listening to "Adieu" for about half an hour now. Such a good song. <33

Hmm.... I know I had more to say, just can't remember what... It'll come to me. Just give it a minute.

Do so love this song.

Oh, and I've been playing FFVIII again on and off. I'm up to Ultimecia's Castle, but I hate that I have to kill the first couple of monster-majigs at half efficiency. If that. XP So I haven't played it for a few days. Gonna wait till I'm bored enough to tackle it again. Oh, and I can't play the little chocobo game (well.... can't leave it running in the background), because you can't turn the music off. >___< It gets so annoying, so I've just decided I'll not bother. And after VIII I'll jump on VII again, 'cause I really do need to. For some reason. XD

LOVE this song!
*ahem*

So yes. I got to see my darling Mel again today. ^__________^ It was great~ I only get to see her once or twice a week, so I have to make the most of it when I get the chance.
And I need a job. >___< It costs munny to travel, believe it or not. Oh how I wish I were rich. Or atleast cool enough that people just gave me munny. XD Well.... okay, not necessarily cool.... but people should give me money all the same. It's for a good cause! Honest! XD

Hmmm.... I think that's probably all I have to say for now. Off to look on a job website, decide it's too much effort, and go to bed. ^__^

Should I bother?

2008-07-09T10:18:21Z

I'm not really good with these blog things... but would anyone (out of all three of you XD) be interested in seeing some posts here? They'll likely be boring and riddled at best, and very few and far between no doubt. But all the same, if people want to see some content here I'll put it up.

So yeah. Leave a comment or sommat.
