Guys.

Guys.

Hey, guys.

I watched this and I nearly wet my pants from laughing. GO SEEEEEEEEEEE IIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!

Fuck my life.

Go vote tomorrow. Seriously, do it.

Stumble (which the worst blow to productivity EVER) gave me this website with a couple dozen different personality quizzes on it, all of which claim to have some kind of scientific/psychological basis behind them. I've only take one or two, but I thought some of you might be into it because personality quizzes are fun. I took the color quiz just now, and my results are down at the bottom of the entry. They're pretty accurate. I love that quiz because it changes as you change. I take it about once a year and it's always pretty accurate for me.

Another serious blow to my ability to get anything done: discovering the entirety of Sailor Moon is on youtube. My childhood, it calls. I forgot how much I love this show. (If you want to watch, search for deepia29 + episode #.) I actually did a project for my gender and sexuality course on Sailor Moon, focusing on the American changes to Michiru/Neptune and Haruka/Uranus. And, as rediculous as I feel for asking, does anyone have any recs for good fanfiction for them? They're my OTP, and I can't find anything well-written about them, really, and that makes me sad.

Last night, two of my housemates stumbled in fairly incapacitated, and demanded that someone drive them to Waffle House. So we did. Seven of us. The nearest WH is about half an hour away. We got there at 3am. It was epic. I'm really going to miss these guys when I leave.

I think it's time for breakfast now.

So, about those poll results...maybe I'll get to them later. Suffice to say that I am simplifying my life right now, and taking the time to do what I want to do. It's going to be at the cost of my academics, but honestly? I'm losing more and more interest in academia every day. I'm tired of school, have been for years. I hate the stress and pressure and expectations. I'm ready to move on. I've discovered I'm happiest when I work full time and my personal time is my personal time. So I'll probably just be scraping by, and my mother will be upset, but I need to do this for myself. If you really want details about anything, let me know and I'll explain it in person. I really don't feel like putting it all here.

I want everyone who reads this to ask me 3 questions, no more no less. Ask me anything you want (though I reserve the right to not answer or to answer evasively). Then I want you to go to your journal, copy and paste this allowing your friends (including me) to ask you anything.

So the first post will be about classes and jobs; the post about Japan House will come after we've had our second house meeting where we're going to hash out some issues. (That's why it's not first even though it got the most votes.)

( English )

( Japanese )

( Queer Eye on America )

( Japanese Fiction )

( Philosophy )

So that's classes. ( Now on to jobs! )

And that's jobs.

I've got a counseling appointment for tomorrow afternoon. I'm nervous about it, but I'm going to be optimistic and I think it'll help me out. Thank you for all your well-wishing; I really appreciate it. More posts forthcoming.

Vassar plays quidditch! When is Gburg going to get a team and join the fun? I want to play!

My fat pants are too big!!!





I haven't been able to wear any pants other than this pair and my super-stretchy courderoys since around Christmas, so this is a momentous occasion.

( Long (spoileryishmaybe) Version: )

Short Version:

Mmmm, Dark Knight. Go see it. Right now. I call it worth my $10.

Pretty accurate for me, even those things I don't actually tell people...creepy much?


( My Personality )

Busy busy busy with work; sorry for not posting much. My life in the summer is pretty boring. I work all day, then I go to my second job and work some more. I'm not complaining, though. This summer is so so so sososo much better than last summer. I love the people I work with, and my jobs are enjoyable, and I still have free time because I refuse to work three jobs like I did last summer.

When I'm not working, I go swing dancing out in Carlisle, which is fun. I'm getting to know several of the people who dance there on a regular basis. It's nice to meet non-Gettysburg people for a change. I'm learning so much every time I go, and dancing with guys who are really good. It's fun, and I lose weight, and I actually stick with it as opposed to the gym which I can't even go to once, let alone every week.

Kelsey was here last week, and although her visit turned out to be pretty terrible for reasons out of everyone's control, it was nice to see her and have some company.

I think I'm coming down with a sore throat. This is Not Cool.

I am going to play laser tag this Friday. Domination will be had by Team Unstoppable.

Meme me?

Gettysburg has set the graduation date for the class of 2010.






I would say something funny or profound about time passing, but I'm still in shock.

( Fun at the Dentist )

Today, I'm back in Gettysburg, having gotten fed up with home enough to leave several days early.

On a side note, thanks to snagging free digital copies of the Twilight books, I'm once again hopelessly addicted and now I can't wait for the movie. (Prior to this, I wasn't going to waste my money; now I'll probably go to the midnight showing with friends.) Edward Cullen and Stephenie Meyer are not making me feel better about my lack of an S.O. right now. I want a Gary Stu boyfriend, damnit!

Works starts Tuesday; I'm looking forward to having something to do.

Oh, God. Oh, House.

I need a hug. :(

So, this is just an opportunity for my lurkers and people who friended me whom I don't know to announce themselves. I promise I don't bite! (Well, unless invited.) I've just noticed that a couple of people have friended me that I either don't know or don't recognize from their lj handles. Also, if you lurk my journal, I'd like to know. I'm just curious, so if you just want to leave a comment introducing yourself and saying why you friended me, I'd appreciate it! Let's be friends. :)

So, I've been home since Wednesday. I can has Gettysburg nao? I feel kinda bad for wanting to leave already. For once, my mom seems really happy to see me. I just. I miss Gettysburg!! (Of course, I also miss a certain tall, goofy kid with a great smile who makes me too flustered for my own good, but. That's beside the point. Mostly.)

If you see me online, message me! Home is booooooooring. Small town life is not terribly fun for a college student.

And, ganked from Jen:

Comment and I will...

1. Tell you why I friended you.
2. Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a color, a photo, etc.
3. Tell you something I like about you.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
7. In return, you must post this in your LJ.

Done with exams! Woo! Now I just have to find a way to entertain myself until Monday afternoon when I can move into summer housing...with all my stuff already packed. I failed at planning this properly.

I beasted my Shakespeare final! My wrist hurts like a mofo and I don't know if I'll be able to play my 'bone tonight, but it was so worth the four hours of continuous writing. That final is huddling in a corner crying for its mommy, I went at it so hard.

And now, after three finals in two days, I can breathe until Saturday morning when I have Japanese.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go melt into a pile of exhaustion.
