Gingerbread Man @ MindSay 
Waooo.
Kitsune no Tora
Eating: Skeleton gingerbread man with green icing - pretty epic. :P
Drinking: Coca Cola
Playing: Nothing atm, but I really should play Avalon Code, Rune Factory, and finish up Rune Factory 2... oh, and Kingdom Hearts, the game I've had for about 2 years now (borrowing from a friend) and am only just after HalloweenTown. iFail. XD
Excited about: YOUMACON IN 22 DAYS!!!!! And NaNoWriMo is kicking up~
Should be writing: Duplicity rewrite
Should be outlining: NaNoWriMo plot
Happy about: Being free from school until Monday~
Kitsune no Tora is feeling: SUPER ESTATICALLY EXCITED, sleepy (constantly)
Uhh... hi?
Didn't I say a long time ago that I wasn't going to leave this for such a long time again?
...I guess I lied. XD Oops.
ANYWAYS...
Since the last time I posted, school has started. I have class Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. Mondays I have Calculus I 11-1, Tuesdays I have Short-Stories and Novels 1-4, then Career Planning 6-9, and Wednesdays I have Calculus I again 11-1, and then a (annoyingly easy) Word Processing class 6-9. Not toooooo busy of a schedule, but Calculus is kicking my ass. D8 I suck at trigonometry, so I fail terribly at all the problems involving that stuff. ^^; We just got done with limits, I think I did pretty decent on the exam this morning, but I'm not positive. It was hard. D8
Today I hit an animal driving through campus on my way to get some lunch. I was driving down the road and this squirrel just jumped right in front of my car. I braked a little, and I didn't feel anything or see anything in the road in my rearview mirror, so I'm hoping that I didn't actually hit him. But it made me sad anyway. :(
I want something (preferably living) to cuddle. But I'm not going to ask any of my family (eesh no), and my kitty Squirt is the most uncuddly cat ever. He doesn't like to be held for very long and he will NEVER sit on your lap. The most you can get is him sitting next to you. I had to trick him this morning to sit on my lap - I was in the living room on the couch and had a blanket over my legs because I was cold. I stuck my hand under and moved it around, and he jumped into my lap trying to get my hand under the blanket. He stayed there. :) But it was only because he didn't realize he was on my lap...Too bad I had to trick him, though. :/ I really hope he grows out of it.
YOUMACON IS IN 22 DAYS!! I'm so super duuper excited. 8DDD Too bad my cosplay fell through. :( I took a last ditch attempt to get the right fabric so that my aunt could make it for me (she's a talented seamstress, and I know if she made it it wouldn't fall apart or anything and be of good quality), and now it's too late to order one. :( They say it takes 25-30 days just to ship it out to me, and probably somewhere around a week after that before it gets on my doorstep, since it would be coming from Hong Kong. :/ *sadface* Andrea said that I should still find something simple enough and cosplay, but I have absolutely no idea who to do. She said she'd look some up for me, though, so we'll see how that goes.
...Maybe I can find some overalls/coveralls, a blonde wig, a peach bandana and make a cardboard wrench and go as Winry Rockbell, haha. XD That could work... I dunno. I'll have to think about it. I want to do something that is easy, but not stupidly simple, like L from Death Note or something. Those are just lazy. :P
I'll definitely do Riza next year, though. And maybe someone from Hetalia, I dunno. 8D I'm partial to Italy~ He's so cute. <3 Plus it would be an excuse for me to act like a dork (moreso that I would normally at an anime convention. :P).
I WONDER IF WE'LL FIND JESUS AGAIN. XDDD And I hope they have Death Note Mafia again, that was a lot of fun, despite the douchebag who decided to act like a pompous smart-ass and ruin everyone's fun halfway through the night last year. I just hope it doesn't coincide with Mario Party After Dark again, I really wanted to go to that, but couldn't tear myself away from the game. XD We played it from like, 11 to 4 in the morning last time, it was a blast.
We should also totally do Otaku Family Feud again, we killed everyone at it last year. Pocky Brigade FTW! We'll need to find Jessica again, though, I didn't get any contact information from her. Maybe Andi did...
Aaaaaand NaNoWriMo is gearing up again! I'm both super excited but ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED at the same time. ^^; I've been having a lot of problems writing recently. I can see and imagine the scene in my head, and it's great. The words flow through my head perfectly. But when I go to put it on paper/document, it just... dies. No words come. It's insanely annoying. Hopefully I can break that before November. I'm already going to get a bad start because of Youmacon (the last day is November 1st, and after that I'm going to be completely wiped and have no will to write anything), so I really really hope that gets broken soon.
I decided to go ahead and do the sequel to Duplicity as my NaNo novel. Except it's slowly becoming too AU to be the true sequel. XDD; PLUS, Duplicity isn't actually DONE, I even went so far as to restart it because it sucked. ^^; So I'm technically writing the sequel to a story that hasn't been written yet. SO SMART Y/Y? Especially since I'm an extremely linear writer, I just can't jump around in my story. It just ends up weird and doesn't feel right. That's PROBABLY why Precious Wingbeats (working title of the sequel) is becoming so intensely AU. ^^;;;; Oh well. I've been using an outlining technique called the Snowflake Method, and so far it has been doing me some good. I've actually got things down; I guess restricting myself to your normal outline format was what was blocking me from creating previous outlines. I'm on stage 3 with Precious Wingbeats, and plan on trying it all the way through. I'm just too lazy right now to plot out all the characters, since I know them all pretty well at this point...
CAN'T WAIT UNTIL THE END OF THIS MONTH OMG. <333
I've been so intensely sleepy a lot recently. It's weird. I get enough sleep: anywhere between 7 1/2 and 10 hours. That's what I've been getting for most of my life now. But it just feels like I need a nap all the time, except during some points of the day. I have the hardest time EVER getting up. I feel like I need naps during the day (which I have never done in my life except on occasion). I don't know why... my lifestyle hasn't changed at all. Maybe it's a mental thing? But what would make me want to sleep all the time? Idk. :/ Oh well.
...I must be sitting weird, because my wrists are starting to hurt from the typing. D8 I guess I'm done for tonight.
Goodnight, digital abyss.

[Blog #265] --- Neutral --- [Monday] - Promising News For GH5
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Today is my daddy's birthday. I wrote him a card and bought him an indie-rock compilation CD. It has bands like: The Fratellis, Kaiser Chiefs and Klaxons - bands that I know he likes to listen to when he's driving.
I've gotten sick of getting to the bus stop stupidly early and having to stand about - so I've set my alarm for 15 minutes later. It only takes me 5-10 minutes to get ready, if that, because I usually have everything laid out ready for me needing it the next day. My plan has worked, and today I was only stood about waiting for 5 minutes or so. It gives me a margin so I'm not waiting forever, and I have a low risk of missing it entirely. Mmmmyes, I am a logical and resourceful downright genius. :P
Media Studies today was a "coursework research" lesson.
In effect, for the entire thing I was just mooching around on Wikipedia for inspiration. I know WHAT I'm going to do, I just need a band to do it about. An essay either about a music video and how the conventions are used, or a big analysis of their song lyrics. My production will be a music video, if I do it well enough. If I end up fucking it up, I have a print option as a back-up plan.
Only problem is finding a damned band.
I want it to be one I like - Rammstein, King Diamond, Metallica, Silverstein - I'm going down that route. I just need them to have released an album in the last 3-5 years (and Rammstein is just starting to push that with 2005's Rosenrot, if next year 2010 counts) - whereas the music video looks like it can be made to a song of any year, it just needs to be 5 minutes or less, it can't be over.
That rules out Precious Jerusalem. Not that I'd know what the hell to do for the video like. :)
Metallica's lyrics are a bit dark... Rammstein's are really complex or about really obscure subjects... Silverstein's are all emo and suicidal... King Diamond is just downright fucked up... This looks like it shall be rather difficult...
(I seem to be saying "downright" a downright lot in this blog. :P)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
English was reasonable. It opened oddly - Angela sort of suggested I sit with Jack, and he's a fucking arse - so I just shook my head and said NO. It caused a weird reaction. :)
As a starter piece, Angela had us drawing GINGERBREAD MEN HOLDING BALLOONS.
Then we proceeded to write key words IN the balloons. I felt sad so I made my gingerbread man sad too. I drew him an icing sad face with a tear on his cheek.
It was an okay lesson, it just made me sad because we were thinking back to our childhood, the games we played and such. 5-6 were sad years for me. 5-15 as a whole were pretty wank, to be honest.
I met up with Shelly during the lunch break and I ate a bag of Mexican chilli McCoys and a big Aero bar. I felt really shitty so I was sat at the table tearing the Aero wrapper into tiny pieces. The caretaker gave me a weird look, but I assured him I'd dispose of it when I was finished.
Shelly could see I was sad, so she tried to cuddle me, but it didn't make me feel much better. We were discussing people and events that depress me, so it was obvious she couldn't.
I was proper thirsty too, because I'd forgotten my bottle of water.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Photography pissed me right off.
First off we had Shelly suddenly getting in a pissy mood herself - but this was likely due to Paul being a right arsehole. Michelle said he's looking for any excuse to kick Shelly off the course. He was a twat to her last year as well, but he's even worse now. Apparently she distracts me - no, if anything, I distract myself. And I distract her more than she distracts me.
The whole lesson was a "peer marking" session. Seriously fucking shit. We all had our icons work up on the walls (mine was on the whiteboard because I hadn't printed it) and we had to basically wander around the classroom with sheets of paper, writing comments, constructive criticism and giving them marks out of 10.
I was quite reserved when I marked Michelle's - because I quite like her. But I don't know the others in the group, and they're sort of twats to me. Oh, and they're strangers - I'm very rude to strangers I've noticed.
So my critique of theirs was a bit more harsh. Roxy's was okay, pretty close to Michelle's - but I was really harsh with Johnny's. He deserved it though, the prick. He gave me 4/10.
AT LEAST YOU COULD TELL WHAT MY FUCKING IMAGES WERE OF!
I MAY HAVE USED THE SAME OBJECT TWICE, BUT AT LEAST MY ARRANGEMENT WASN'T WANK! EVERYONE EVEN TOLD YOU IT WAS WANK.
AT LEAST I VARIED IN COLOUR! IT WASN'T ALL BLACK AND BROWN.
Capital letters rant over. :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I got home, I played Guitar Hero: World Tour.
I was mainly getting scores for the new free DLC I'd never played. No wonder they give these songs away for free - they're ALL shit!
The only two decent free ones are Grave Of Opportunity and Electro Rock.
Then I attempted to give Guitar Hero 5 another try.
OH, THERE'S HOPE FOR IT NOW. :)
Yes, the career has merged so it's one for all of the instruments, instead of 4 separate ones... BUT.
There's a new feature - instrument challenges!
Each song has a different one, so one would be drums while another is bass, vocals, guitar or whole band.
They're things like 'hit 200 snare beats' for drums, 'whammy sustains for 1 minute' for guitar and the best one that I proper OWNED: 'hit 300 notes using only UP STRUMS' for bass.
I did it on Expert too. :P
I'm going through the career mainly on Expert bass, getting the scores, then switching to the other instruments for the challenges. There's even gigs where you can choose your own song - including DLC.
So I chose Jessie's Girl on Expert lead and scored 100%. I had to hit as many chords as I could, but there wasn't enough in the actual song to get the diamond rank. I'll have to try it again with something more complex.
I also like the fact that 100% FC gets you SIX STARS.
100%s are optional, but they earn you more stars and they're ever so sexy. You also can't tell what instrument and level you've done the song on - so you could have gone through the entire thing on Beginner and nobody would know.
But I'm making it fun for myself with Expert bass. It is really easy though, compared to Greatest Hits.
Yes, the quickplay is a bit wank - it only shows one score instead of 5 for all the separate levels. The interface is still a bit shitty - and you can't give custom characters fucking beards!
I've been wondering for ages now why Ashley Darwin and Dudley Boone look so fucked - it's because they have BALD FACES.
I have my four custom characters set up as the band on-screen. They look so sexy together. I don't think I've ever seen it before. :)

Odio, Wachtler. Odio.
Let me start off by saying this morning, I was the recipient of perhaps one of the best parking spots in the school. It all started... when I thought I was late, so I didn't really stop at any stop signs (wait... do I ever?) and sped my way on in to find an empty parking lot. The end. The spot was only two away from the handicap. I've been in the first row of cars everyday and my last class is kind of near the exit, so it's real easy to get out of school. It's pretty awesome.
So I was pretty giddy going into school, seeing as I got this superawesome parking spot and all... and I went into calculus and tralalala, our homework is only like 6 problems, we all finish early and get to leave early. And then it's onto Film, where we watch... JAWS. Just the first part where the girl gets sucked under--it's the best part anyways. First we watched it without sound and then with, so the teacher could prove how music affects movies. But I already knew this as once I was watching a love scene, which I'm usually not a huge fan of, but Wild Horses (Rolling Stones) was playing, and it really got me. That happened too, with those two scenes that I almost passed out in May and that one indie movie the dude from Dawson's Creek was in. I'm sure I've talked about it before.
After that, I scooted on over to english, where I proceeded to color a self-portrait gingerbread man. It was so cool. In one hand I had a softball and in the other a fork, and I was wearing a sleeping hat on my head and aviators with a yellow batman shirt and green plaid shorts and flip flops. But when I tried to add hair it made me look like a comic book fatty. Amy agreed, so I guess we can pretend I keep my hair in a sleeping cap. In the spanish class of death, we did something similar: 20 sentences about ourselves (my favorites included: Odio personas estupidas y lentas and Corro en palos frecuentamente). And then we had to add a drawing, so I drew some realllll cool aviators with car keys that didn't look like carrots.
4th period was gaaaay. We got our books and looked up 5 vocab words and then had to write a letter to a friend with 200+ words mentioning 3 definitions. Somehow my letter ended up talking about this dead rat baby fetus thing I found in the sideyard. I've been meaning to mention that in here, but I... didn't. I would've taken a picture except... well... maybe I will yet. Oh yea, and I had to retake the fuckin safety test. One question said: When acid gets on you, wash with: and I put soap, because I figured if you were already "washing" then water was already involved. But no, the answer was water. I totally knew that too. I did.
Suggested Tag: "pretty water"
History was blegh. We changed seats according to first name, and I of course ended up in the faggot C-section(ha.ha.) like I always do. And I'm in the front row. But I'm still next to Allison and Alyssa like I was before. And Becca is still closeby. HOWEVER, the most annoying faggot on the face of the planet sits behind me and I was to killlll myself. Even more than the fag in film, who makes me want to killll him. Let me tell you something, when you make me want to kill you or myself, there is a problem that needs to be adressed and it has nothing to do with me.
And while I'm at it, I've been meaning to adress the subject of Mini-vans. Maybe even a Caitlin's rules of the road?
1. If you drive a mini-van, kill yourself.
2. If you're an asshole who waits until the last minute to swerve in front of me and then merge onto the already backed up freeway entrance ramp, someone needs to shoot you.
3. If you let me in during rush hour traffic, I love you. Unless I had to force my way in, in which case, I hope you learned your lesson. Fag.
4. If you speed up like you're going somewhere and then suddenly stop, I will KILL YOU. And not just because I hate you, but because I probably won't shift gears in time and hopefully I'll slam into you, causing you great harm.
I'll pick that up later. At work tonight I started with 3 games and Dan had 4, but one of his forfeited and I meant to have both of us work 3, but he weaseled his way out of it and I told him if I covered his last game, I wouldn't owe him anymore for working for me when I was on vacation, even though I told the supervisor about that weeks in advance. Plus I don't mind coming home at 10:45 and he had homework, I didn't. In the final game, these black guys were sitting behind the backstop rooting for all the girls and one said "here's Maguire!" and another is like "Check for 'roids!" And another goes "Hemorrhoids, Steroids... they're all bad!". My work is so cool like that. But I went to the port-o-potties and apparently, in one of them the seat somehow became dislocated from the pot itself. The lid too. It was just kind of everywhere. I remember once, when we were playing rec and waiting for something, me and emily stuck a string cheese stick into the urinal tube of the port-o-potty. Carefully, without touching the sides, of course.
Oh, by the WAY, the ending of The Birds.... it sucks a fat one. It was the worst movie ending I have ever had the misfortune to come across. They just drive off. No explanation, no solution. Preposterous.
Anyway, I think I got that all out. Tomorrow I get out of school at 12:15. I want to go to panda or something, but I have no money. Oh and we took a political affiliation test in film and apparently I am in the -20 to +20 points range which means I'm moderate, but I was 4 points to the conservative side. Who would've thought. I'm still all for Kerry though. Rolling Stone is democratic, which I love. Ryan Furnis, this retard, he got like 72 points on the conservative side. The highest on the scale on the board was 65.

P.S. Those spanish sentences meant: I hate stupid and slow people. and I run into poles often. Jimmy told me to put that second one. Neil knows what I'm talking about.
So I was pretty giddy going into school, seeing as I got this superawesome parking spot and all... and I went into calculus and tralalala, our homework is only like 6 problems, we all finish early and get to leave early. And then it's onto Film, where we watch... JAWS. Just the first part where the girl gets sucked under--it's the best part anyways. First we watched it without sound and then with, so the teacher could prove how music affects movies. But I already knew this as once I was watching a love scene, which I'm usually not a huge fan of, but Wild Horses (Rolling Stones) was playing, and it really got me. That happened too, with those two scenes that I almost passed out in May and that one indie movie the dude from Dawson's Creek was in. I'm sure I've talked about it before.
After that, I scooted on over to english, where I proceeded to color a self-portrait gingerbread man. It was so cool. In one hand I had a softball and in the other a fork, and I was wearing a sleeping hat on my head and aviators with a yellow batman shirt and green plaid shorts and flip flops. But when I tried to add hair it made me look like a comic book fatty. Amy agreed, so I guess we can pretend I keep my hair in a sleeping cap. In the spanish class of death, we did something similar: 20 sentences about ourselves (my favorites included: Odio personas estupidas y lentas and Corro en palos frecuentamente). And then we had to add a drawing, so I drew some realllll cool aviators with car keys that didn't look like carrots.
4th period was gaaaay. We got our books and looked up 5 vocab words and then had to write a letter to a friend with 200+ words mentioning 3 definitions. Somehow my letter ended up talking about this dead rat baby fetus thing I found in the sideyard. I've been meaning to mention that in here, but I... didn't. I would've taken a picture except... well... maybe I will yet. Oh yea, and I had to retake the fuckin safety test. One question said: When acid gets on you, wash with: and I put soap, because I figured if you were already "washing" then water was already involved. But no, the answer was water. I totally knew that too. I did.

History was blegh. We changed seats according to first name, and I of course ended up in the faggot C-section(ha.ha.) like I always do. And I'm in the front row. But I'm still next to Allison and Alyssa like I was before. And Becca is still closeby. HOWEVER, the most annoying faggot on the face of the planet sits behind me and I was to killlll myself. Even more than the fag in film, who makes me want to killll him. Let me tell you something, when you make me want to kill you or myself, there is a problem that needs to be adressed and it has nothing to do with me.
And while I'm at it, I've been meaning to adress the subject of Mini-vans. Maybe even a Caitlin's rules of the road?
