LOL I LIED THIS IS MY LAST POST!

Revolutionary

LOL I LIED THIS IS MY LAST POST! I totally realized I did not, in fact, have a resolution. Naturally the year won't be complete without one. I won't even go the typical route about how no one ever keeps them anyway, so there's no point. Nay, I won't even consider that. I'm so original.
So basically I can't think of anything that I've done for the last year that I could actually see myself changing this year. Last year I did not, in fact, acclompish my goal, but I don't care anymore so who cares? Wait, that sounded redundant. Anyway, I'm trying to avoid the traditional (for me, at least) "I WILL GET HIM TO TALK TO ME THIS YEAR!" cuz wait, that's pathetic. And everything else about myself that I don't like is not going away just because the months have changed.
So I guess I'll make the easiest resolution to keep, ever: at some point in the following year, I will straighten my hair. In public and stuff. I mean, not straighten it in public, but have it straightened in public. Revolutionary, I know.
Ooh, and also, I should probably make it a resolution to finish Nix by the end of the year...
I mean, I HOPE it takes less than a year anyway, but...yeah.
Yeah.

Nostalgia, and other assorted goodies.

Science labs are the scourge of the Earth. No really. I have over a page of questions to answer for ONE SECTION of the lab, and all of the answers must be written together in paragraph-form. Please kill me.
Oh, and my dad has a blog. Behold it. Marvel in it and stuff. See, I didn't say anything about it before because I figured he wouldn't want a bunch of high schoolers as an audience, but he said he didn't care, so...woo. I think it's pretty dapper, especially considering he called my blog fascinating...tee hee. Because it is, of course.
So it's New Year's Eve! I suppose I should spend this time being reflective and shit, but I can't focus on anything because of the science lab. Including the science lab. Hold on, I have to clean up the remnants of my soul which are dripping out of my finger tips in a fetid pool of misery. And that is my year. Next year, all the individual numbers in the year add up to 4. And 4 is a magic number. So there.
I'm currently looking at my first post of 2010, considering this will most likely be my last. Unless I make a troll post that says LOL I LIED THIS IS MY LAST POST! Yeah, I could see doing that. Anyway. It seemed a requirement to be nostalgic, so here we go: I talked about death and posted lyrics to Paper Thin Hymn by Anberlin. 4 people commented. I expect four people to comment on this as well, you know. If you see four people have commented already, don't comment. Save it till next year, yo.
Let's see. Let's look back on the year. Have I done anything particularly meaningful? No, not really. I've spent the last fifteen minutes or so, instead of working on my lab like a good student, going through my entries looking for the one where I stopped liking Basil. I remember the day it happened. I remembered what I wrote, because I was afraid if I went around announcing it I'd fall right back into the trap again. I just don't remember when, or what the title was. I don't know why it's important to me how long I have till it's been a year, because the point is that I don't any more, but it feels like it is--important to me. Like it's a milestone, sort of. Even though it's not. Even though it doesn't matter anymore...
I wrote an entry in February that I think fairly well articulated the same thoughts I have now, but at the same time seem entirely separate from the thoughts I have now...
I remember, now. I made it past the two-year mark with him, so it was definitely after February 13th. Darn; I was kind of hoping this could be my first year without that poisoning everything. Sigh, now I'm all depressed because I was thinking about Basil.
Yeah. Nothing exciting happened this year. It was--it was gashnic. Just gashnic. Well, I guess starting high school is something. But it's not as monumental as I thought it'd be, you know? It was like, oh, look, here I am. Great. And that was all.
So I'm done being nostalgic. That was a fail. Happy New Year's and stuff!

This is my theme song for 2010. And it makes me sad.

Thursday.

So yeah, I haven't posted since Monday. But I actually have done stuff! Woo!

On Tuesday (afternoon), I went over to Kerm's house and we had a SLEEPOVER. Hollah. I finally watched Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, which wasn't as good as I thought it'd be. We dresses in our costumes for our fan-tacular movie called Nix, which we are totally making, and did poster-shots...all of mine were terrible. Haha. I play Catherine Carey, a deeply disturbed girl, and she plays Nix, a deeply disturbed fairy. Hell to the yeah.

We also played Jojo's Fashion Show World Tour, which was awful and amazing at the same time. I can never decide with those games.

And now that I think about it, I'm not sure what else we did, haha :D I straightened my hair. It was awesome. I have officially used both my straightener and my crimpy.

Of course, it's already Thursday (D:) and I have a science lab report to finish *shudders*. That's always, of course, the best thing I could ever do over a weekend. Naturally. Because I enjoy three hours of soul-sucking torture. Euch.

I also went over to Vera's house on Wednesday, so I guess that's something. Eh. We just played Wii and I stuffed myself on bite-sized chocolate cookies her mom made.

And...that is it. Ha ha. Ho ho. HUR.

Monday!

So I remember, like, snippets of this epic amazing dream I had last night and I CAN'T REMEMBER ALL OF IT. It was a really effing good one, too. Spanned a long period of time, I think. WAS AWESOME. But I CAN'T REMEMBER IT.
See, I was listening to Only the Good Die Young by Billy Joel, and it pretty much hit me. Which is weird, cuz the dream and the song really have nothing to do with each other. BAH WHY CAN'T I REMEMBER IT?!?!
[Over My Head--The Fray]
See, I'm listening to all these butt-old songs because I decided to listen to all the songs on my iPod, in alphabetical order. I'm currently on the O's. I only have, like, 423 songs on there...hah...
[Over You--Daughtry]
I really have nothing to say, naturally. Winter break. Woo! It's gonna go by too fast, of course, especially if I keep pissing the day away--oh! I woke up at 10:30 this morning. Seriously. I NEVER sleep in that late. The latest I've ever slept was 11, and that was because I went to bed at 5. I kind've felt like I'd wasted half the day...but, I mean, it's not like I was planning on doing anything anyway.
[Overweight--Blue October]
I am in desperate need of a shower. Yeah. I should go now.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

So, pretty good haul this year :) I could share with you the delights of my morning, but instead, I'll just tell you what presents I got:
  • A camera! It's a Kodak-something-or-other, and is lavender, and is NOT battery charged, woo :) See, the old one mysteriously stopped working one day, and I [strongly] suggested we get a new one. And we did! And I love it!
  • Makeup! Technically, I'm not allowed to wear makeup outside the house until I'm 16, but my mom got it anyway for me to practice. And I love that, too! The makeup includes: probably the best mascara EVER, three different shades of eyeliner (black, sparkly blue, and sparkly purple), two sets of eyeshadow, foundation that actually matches my freakishly pale skin EXACTLY, blush, and three shades of lip gloss (purple, pink, red--yeah. wut.) It's pretty much awesome.
  • Two shirts from Hot Topic, both The Hunger Games themed! Yeah, haha. One is white and says DOWN WITH THE CAPITOL! and the other is, oddly, the exact same one Kerm got for Christmas as well, except in black as opposed to purple. Yeah. Awesome. I know.
  • A WIRELESS MOUSE AND NEW MOUSEPAD!!! None of you could possibly now the joy of this gift until you've experienced the horror that is (or, rather, was) my old mouse set. It had a wire. And it was awful. I could barely move it, which is NOT helpful when I'm trying to take pictures of some Sims character giving birth and accidentally hit the "Ultra Speed" button, or when I hit "Punch in the Face" instead of "Kiss Romantically", or some other crap. And the mousepad? I didn't have one for the first two (or so) years I had the compooter, and the one I finally got was stolen from the downstairs computer when we got a replacement and was old, and disgusting. Yeah. I'm happy about this gift.
  • A hair straightener/hair crimper. I admit, I don't do a lot with my hair, but maybe that's because the hair things I had were AWFUL. Oh, and I say hair crimper instead of hair curler because...well...it crimps instead of curls. We played with it earlier today, and my hair is now wave-tacular. What.
  • A $15 iTunes gift card. I don't really know what can be said about this, except yay :)
  • Various other stocking stuffers, including that L'Oreal 360 Clean or whatever it's called, which is awesome, and socks.
  • Pajamas! I actually got this on Christmas Eve, as is the tradition, but I'll desribe them anyway: pretty much the comfiest pajama bottons ever, really soft, and black with white hearts and multi-colored peace signs...yeah, I'm stylish X); a bright green blanket made of the same soft, plush material as the bottoms, and a bright pink tank. It is comfortable. And I have worn it all day. Boo-yeah!
I got my mom a cookbook that is awesome, and my dad a journal that is awesome :D I made sure to save those for last, since they are just SO awesome. So yeah. Excitement. I love Christmas :D MERRY CHRISTMAS FOLKS! WHAT'D YA GET?

Friday, December 24, 2010

I feel like I should be talking about Christmas, it being Christmas Eve and all, but I really can't think of anything to say. I actually feel kind of down, by this point. Not because of Christmas. Definitely not!
Instead of writing some cheery post about the joys of the holiday, I will instead not grace you with a picture of holiday cheer. See, I was going to, but I couldn't find one. And I didn't feel like writing something else. Ta-ta.

Joy to the world.

So, with two questions let on my science lab, which is due tomorrow, I took a break (hah) to set up the Christmas tree, which we [FINALLY!] got last night, after much searching...but I won't get into that...anyway, I started with the lights. I always start with the lights. Who doesn't start with the lights? So I start with the lights. I'm putting a lot of lights. We have about six different strings of lights, seriously. Two colored, four white. Maybe more. I put up the colored first, but the tree seemed too sparse, so I put up some whites...still sparse and all...so I grab my next string of lights, and holy hell, there is a knot in it the size of Montana. That took my twenty minutes to get out. I kid ye not, friends; twenty minutes. Maybe more. So I start hanging it up, only to discover THREE MINUTES LATER that there is ANOTHER knot also roughly the size of a state. Not Deleware, either. And I'm just like, haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaail no. So I come on here and look at the science lab again and flounder hopelessly. My phone just kind of left me. It currently has a message on the screen that says "DEMSBL BOOT Loader for MSM6298" and I don't know what it means, and regardless I can't call anyone, which makes me feel more lonely and cut-off from the outside world than I already am--what with Dad being at work and Mom being asleep. So someone answer this question:
In one reaction, you tested a gas that was produced and heard a "pop" which implied the identity of the fas. Which Part? The "pop" itself was also a chemical reaction [a seperate reaction from the one that made the gas in the first place]. What type of reaction was the second reaction? Write a balanced equation (with states of matter) for this reaction. Did any of your careful observations of the inverted tube support the presence of the products of this reaction? (Note: the second reaction is NOT the same reaction that generated the explosive gas in the first place).
Yeah. Someone answer that for me. Please.

Tuesday, December 21, 2010

Science labs seriously suck out your soul. Alliteration. Really, though. My soul is in FRAGMENTS, and it's only a "semi-formal." Ugh.
TWO YEARS TILL THE END OF THE WORLD. FIRE WILL RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIN FROM THE SKY!

Saturday, December 18, 2010

The stars were bright all through the night.

So I actually submitted something to Demogorgon! Woo, I feel special. Silver and I had some discrepancies about the wisdom of an immortal dude jumping off a cliff after the woman he loves, but, who cares? I think it's damn good.

Today I went to the mall with Happy! Happy never goes to the mall. Ever. Her mom is afraid of the world, or something. But anyway. It was fun! I got Sanguine a present, and it is a ring. I think I'll drop to one knee when I give it to her, haha. Just for funsies.

Of course, I still need a present for: Mom, Dad, Gem, Kim, Silver, and Happy. I have so many friends. Haha. Not really. That was redundant. ANYWAY. I saw this fantacular bracelet at Hot Topic. It's my new favorite thing. AND this locket-necklace thing at Nordstrom, which I can't find a picture of. It's pretty much my favorite thing ever.

I guess it's never too early to start thinking about what clothes I'm buying next summer, heh. I made a system, so it is impossible for me to have a bad outfit. Because that totally works. But now I'm anxious for summer to get here. In the middle of winter. Not that I wouldn't be anxious for this year to end, anyway...sigh...

I have a science worksheet due on Monday, and apparently on the same day we're having an in-class writing assignment on The Sound of Waves, which is an awful book. Really, it's just awful. But on Tuesday, I will gorge myself on brownies in Latin and Health, and on Wednesday, I will gorge myself on brownies in Health. Hell to the yeah, mofos. Okay, so I won't gorge myself. But damn, I love brownies.

I'm rambling to such an extreme extent by this point that I'm not sure why I'm even still writing...

In Hot Topic some girl I think goes to my school, who works though, complimented my shirt. A few months ago, I had been in their with a different shirt, and the same girl complimented that one too. Apparently, this girl likes my shirts.

....CHRISTMAS. ONE WEEK WOOOO.

Friday, December 17, 2010

Twopah et unsenta.

I believe words cannot express how endlessly grateful I am that it's the weekend, especially since I actually have PLANS--yes! I'm not just sitting around playing Sims all weekend again! I'm as surprised as you are. Even better, I really don't have that much homework. Hell to the yeah, biyatches.

I'm currently trying to write another short story that doesn't deeply offend every wit and sense I possess, but alas, I'm failing...you know. In this one I'm just making up words, like promme, and Genrie Heri, and Cate Demoire, because I can. Because I can. I mean, the capitalized ones are just in another [fake] language, but "promme" is completely made up. Unless it's a word that I'm not aware of. It's a type of dress, by the way.

Now I look for gifts for people. ONLINE WOAH.

A hoobj of fun.

I take the time to share with you now: The Adventures of Strawberry and Gem, a.k.a. The Bus Chronicles. For those of you who are forgetful, or just, you know, slow, Gem is my bus-buddy. Hurrah. Sometimes we just sit there in silence and listen to our iPods, and sometimes we just have a hoobj of fun. Hoobj, I tell you.
Today we kept a tally of how many times I said (excuse my French) f*ck for no reason in a single trip, breaking my previous record of 12, except we didn't actually keep track. Though she managed to say "That's bitchin'," a grand total of 3 times. We saw how many times people would wave back to us when we waved like frantic maniacs from the window. I won. And I made a fat face :)
Of course, the highlight of this 40-minute gleeride, and the entire point I'm feeding you this exaggerated spiel, is because she said she loved my hair, and it made me squee :)
I just finished a freaking amazing sandwich, and now I'm sad that it's gone :( I actually found wheat bread that I like, hoorah!
Yeah. I have a headache. I have nothing else to say.

Wednesday, December 15, 2010

Short!

Hallo! I am currently trying to think of reasons why love at first sight exists, that can actually be proven. Wish me luck!
My fingers are cold, so GAOBIII!
What?

Monday, December 13, 2010

I've graced you with more mildly depressing, "deep"{?} thoughts.

Ender's Game is an amazing book. See, I was going to curse there, but I didn't. But really. It may actually be one of the best books I've ever read. I don't even know what to say about it except that it was amazing.

Yesterday I went to Silver's house! Except towards the end I got a monstrous headache, slept for an hour-and-a-half when I finally got home, and threw up (twice) all of the 30-some almonds I ate. It was pleasant. But today I was A-okay!

SKIP TO THE EXCERPT AHEAD, IF YOU WANT TO AVOID THE AFOREMENTIONED THOUGHTS.

I suppose I should have something significant to say, after a several-days hiatus from blogging--unintentional, of course--but now, like then, I still have nothing to say. That was a clumsy sentence. I can't wait until I'm old enough for Psychology classes. I mean, I REALLY can't wait. Some things I see people do, and I think I understand them, but I can't fight the constant sensation that I'm only just skimming the surface of what how the human brain works--and I am. Of course. I doubt most psychologists do more than that, but I still want to know what I can, and now. And, you know, it's not just about understanding other people--I guess I want to understand myself too. And I want to write. Believably. I want to know what my characters are doing, and why. I can never know them well enough, with my feeble grasp on how they work, to write them to the caliber I want to write them--to make them destroy themselves. Why is it that, in every story I create, my characters destroy themselves? Or there was never a self to begin with.

Okay, now I'm just rambling again. I suppose, giving the (sad) lack of traffic on my last deep, heartfelt entry, it's not really what people want to hear. Never mind, I know it's not what they want to hear. And I don't blame them, because sometimes I'm just incapable of articulating things well; when I'm not writing about something shallow or vapid or pointless, it always comes out wrong, and people get confused, and when people are confused they get afraid. I don't believe in anyone anymore. Not even on that shallow level that everyone always assumes--that everyone lies, or everyone is stupid--but because none of it matters. Nothing matters. The best I can do to combat this is just to focus on something else--a smaller ring of importance, shrinking inward with every step. A thousand levels of thought, culminating in the firm belief that everything, everywhere, and everyone, means nothing. But I can forget that; I can pretend that societal laws are important, and revolution is important, and the order of the world is important, and that the universe beyond Earth is important, and that writing a book is important, and that love is important--and in a smaller level, on a personal basis, on a humanity-level basis, it is.

Damn, I just can't stop with my pointless rambling on my damn contriving thoughts. I should talk about something stupid now, like how I went to 3-D Art today instead of lunch, because that's so important--and I should recount every stupid joke I made today, and every time I forgot how unhappy I should feel--because I'm not unhappy, I just wish I was, so I have something to complain about. So I can legitimately discuss my despair with all humankind, and not feel like a hypocrite because of how many times I laughed today, forgetting that exact thing. It's an easy thing to forget.

I can see my future, spread out before me, but it doesn't seem real--it never seems real--that one day I could be there, in that place, and not here, in the place I've always been. I can see my past, clawing at me from behind--or maybe I'm clawing at it, because I'm incapable of forgetting, and it's sitting like a dead thing behind me--wasted, unimportant, yet still so heavy--and I can't believe I was once there, and not here, in this place I've always been. I can only see the present, and not a moment before or after; it is the only thing that exists for me, but I can't feel it--I don't feel many things--and nothing ever occurs to me, or is realized--because the future doesn't exist and the past is just a dead thing, and the present is a step beyond transient, and verging on nonexistent. So I don't feel it. Everything is just where I am and where I've always been, and nothing ever changes, because change doesn't exist, only where I am and where I've always been. And with these thoughts I shouldn't feel fear, and I shouldn't be able to stop walking--I've tried it before, though, and I'm always able to stop walking, but even more so I'm able to keep walking, and that's the thing that makes me remember that nothing ever ends, and time never stops, more so than the transience of the days, of the hours, of the weeks--I'm able to keep walking. Everything in the universe could boil down to that for me; I'm able to keep walking.

But then, it always loops back around, to say that if I'm able to keep walking--if I can always take another step, further, closer to the destination that isn't a destination--than nothing really matters. Everything is concrete, and everything is fleeting. It all depends, really, on what sphere you're looking at; but the greatest sphere, the sphere you can't look beyond, or see past, because it encompasses everything and holds true of all things, is that nothing really matters.

I wish I could speak this all, instead of just writing it. And I wish people would read it. And tell me something that makes sense.

So I guess now I have an excerpt.

“I loved someone, once.” That tone in which she spoke it! I loved someone, once—upon a time, I wanted to add, because that was the impression her voice gave; she did not laugh or smile, but stared at the rising sun as if thoughts she could not comprehend or turn to fruition were burning just behind that high, pale forehead of hers. I remembered, somewhat guiltily, that I had once believed her incapable of love—but now, to hear her speak this negation of my previous thoughts, I could not believe otherwise. I saw it in the distance of her eyes. She had loved someone, once.
At once the look had passed from the rising sun, and turned instead to the heavens, eyes alight with strange fervor and despair. “Does the sky not mock me, Abraham?”
“The nature of your love—”
“Was obsession.” She closed her eyes, then, and that strange and small smile she so often wore showed itself on her exhausted face. “No, not obsession, but destroying, Abraham, destroying.”
“Destroying of self?”
“Destroying of all things.” She buried her hands in her hair, her dark and windswept hair, which was so long it brushed the calloused ground beneath us. “I would have destroyed everything for this man, Abraham—everything in the world. For a man! What an inconsequential word, but then, when I was near him—what an inconsequential world!”
“That is not uncommon for lovers to say, Rele.”
She laughed with viciousness, but viciousness towards self. “You do not comprehend my words, then, Soul-Seer. I am disappointed. Have you not been with me long, now?”
Shame tinged the edges of my voice, like feathers just brushing against—I was ashamed of the truth of her words. “I have been with you long, yes.”
“And yet you do not understand the nature of my love. In fact, I would go so far to say as you thought my incapable of such a violent thing—I have read it on your face. I can read you better than you me. Is that not sad, Abraham?”
I turned out to the sea, which was below us, far below us—and the sun, red and brighter than all things of the world, and reflecting on the sea so it was aflame with the reflected light. And I looked to the sky, clear and pale and translucent in nature; towards the ever-glowing sun that was burning just as bright as the sea below it, reflected; it was all shades of brilliance. And I looked behind us, to the craggy rocks and jumbling path that led its way to this spot, this fierce, lonely, wild spot, to which Rele had led me; thick with the decayed foliage of a winter past, and yet becoming brilliant in the warmth of the rising sun. Have I painted a lovely picture? And Rele, she became as part of it as the sea below our feet, or the sky above our heads; she shone with the orange and pink brilliance of the sun, and cast her shadow far across the weathered earth behind us.
“It is sad, Rele.”
She opened her eyes again, and did not blink away the light of the sun; she absorbed it. “I have lain here, tormented, but never willing to throw myself down this sheer cliff face, to a most certain and terrible death. And now, when I am peace, it occurs to me how effortless it would be to do so, how simple—and not permanent at all, as I have thought in younger years, but rather liberating. Almost painless. Do you not think so?”
I could not help the clenching of my muscles, and the tightness of my throat, as I imagined her body, ever graceful, flying towards the sea—embracing it—like a bird in flight, ascending to the heavens just as she was descending to the torrid earth. A torrent of grace, and yet bearing the finality of sorrow—I said, with a quiet tone, “I do not think so, Rele.”
She peered at me, soft gray eyes—gray as the underside of a dove’s wing—revealing no alarm, and no surprise. “Would you leap after me, Abraham?”
“It would not matter,” I answered quickly, unable to meet her eye, for her eye was like a dagger to my soul, gentle in its bloody victory. “I am immortal.”
“But would you, Abraham?”
I was silent. I watched the space between the edge of the cliff and the sea; a breathtaking distance, and eternal. She smiled at me with the same slight smile.
“You have been charged with watching me, Abraham; you have been charged with revealing my soul, and understanding it. Why is that, Abraham?”
“You were in need of it. My task is not one to be questioned.”
“And my place is not to be, either. Abraham, your name possesses meaning only because it is yours. That is your charge, your sacred duty, and yet you do not understand me at all. Can I tell you why I think that is, Abraham?”
I did not answer; I did not need to. She answered for me. “It is because you love me, Abraham, and we never understand that which we love.”
I stared to the rising sun, though it burned my eyes; to look upon her would be much more pain. “On the contrary; it seems to me that that which we love, we would understand perfectly.”
“It is not the case.” Her fingers found mine, but only her fingers; they were soft as wings caressing the air. We were connected, only for a moment. “It is never the case.”
I felt her slipping away from me, before I felt it, and her fingers were not with mine. There seemed a perfect moment, perfect in its infinity, in which our skin was apart by only a breath of a breath, in which I understood her, and she understood me, and the whole world could be encompassed in the space between our skin. She slid from the cliff face with perfect grace and, with brilliant eyes closed, fell to the sea. I could not watch, though I felt her every peaceful breath resounding like a thousand deaths through my soul.
I could not watch. Instead I leapt.
I think I'll go post something embarrassing to Facebook.

You shouldn't read this. I'm just rambling.

Whoa, so, I just happened to be reading the post after the 8th grade dance, and there's like three Anonymous comments that I never noticed there...that are somewhat, eh, bothersome. I would respond more in depth, but it was so long ago, and none of that matters anymore. So, yeah. I don't know why I'm writing this at all, actually.
Yesterday I hung out with Silver at 3-D art! Hah, I forgot to mention that. It was fun. Pretty much any day I don't go to lunch is a good day.
It's very hard to type now, because my knees are bent against the desk, and the dog is lying between my legs and stomach. So, yeah. I really have nothing to say here. Today is Friday! Not that I have any plans for the weekend, but at least it won't be school. That just makes every day better. Speaking of that, though, I feel like I'll just be sitting around the entire weekend, especially since I pretty much have no homework. And that's ALWAYS fun.
So I really don't like the whiny teenage girls who complain that no one understands them. They're not that complex. I mean, hell, I'll be the first to admit that I'm pretty straightforward: simple things make me happy, and simple things make me sad. I'm needy, I'm proud, I'm shy. I like fighting for things. I like being right. Anyone who knows me knows me well. However, at the same time I'll say that sometimes I wonder if anyone who doesn't know me knows me at all, or if they have some ridiculous misconception about what I'm thinking and who I am based on the very little I do or say around them. See, I don't know. I can't really go up and ask someone what they think of me.
I mean, do people think I'm weird? Do people think I'm desperate? What image do I portray? I'm not naive enough to think it's positive, but I'm really as outcast-ish as I seem to be. I mean, yeah, my hair's unkempt, and I wear the same two hoodies every day, and I'm uber-pale, and I'm not the skinniest person ever, and I'm shy, and I don't know how to talk to people--but none of those sum up my character. None of that could tell someone if I'm smart or not, or honest, or loyal. That doesn't tell people that I write, or that I secretly want to be a revolutionary, or what I love, or what I hate. I feel like, as a whole, most people don't know anything about me, and when they have to assume they assume wrong.
Okay, I'm totally upset about that comment I never noticed. I mean, hell. I want to say Basil destroyed me, even though it's not supposed to matter. I want to, but I don't know if it's true. Why couldn't I have turned out the same if I had never met him? If I had sat at a different table in math? I mean, by saying that I could just be looking for an excuse as to why I'm such a God-damned loser. Being so all-encompassed with him made me forgot to notice other things, like how I was becoming, among other things, a social pariah of sorts. I wonder what they all thought of me. I mean, I know what they all thought of me. I wondered if they misinterpreted what they say, or if I really was that pathetic. All my friends thought so. Everyone thought so. How could I not see it? Or, when I did see it, why did I let it become me? I could say I'm not really that pathetic, but obviously I was. If I wasn't really anything I didn't want to be, then I wouldn't have done a single damn thing I regret today. And I regret everything. I regret things that happen yesterday. All the regret wells up inside, eating away at everything I do; the only solution I have is blocking out everything. Just everything. Every single stupid thing I've ever done. Every single thing others have done that hurt me. I just want to scream at people that that wasn't me, and I'm so normal, so just like everyone else. I want to take them by the shoulders and make them look at me and tell me what's wrong with me. There's nothing good about being this. I'm hyper-aware of every fault, but if I can just block everything out--block out my torrid memory, block out my all-consuming self-disgust, block out the grim and constant knowledge that I will never be like them, no matter how normal I am--then at the very least I can pretend not to care. Everything seems to speak to my own inadequacies.
And then I just want to ask people, God, someone hear me. I know it's my own fault. I know I'm expecting people to read my mind, because I never say it loud enough for other people to pay attention. Even my own friends. When I actually did talk about myself, I talked about him, because he made up the only part of me that mattered. Now they don't want to hear my talk about myself. I can't bring it up, I can't say it out loud. I love them to death, but if I didn't have them I would have to just bear it, and get through the day, and I would manage exactly the same way I do now. I let them talk about themselves. I encourage it. I want to help them. I want to go to Paris with them, and cry together, and laugh together. But I don't want it to seem like the things I care about are trivial, or shallow, because I squeal when I saw them, and act emotional--I'm not even emotional. I feel cold as ice all the time, because what I do portray as emotion is just so damn fake. It's what they want. It's what they expect, and I can't escape from that. I'm not "dying on the inside" or some crap, I just pretend so hard that I forget what I am and become something else. What they expect. Or rather, not, because what you do and who you are are the same thing; that's who I am, and it's pathetic, and if no one expected it then I wouldn't be it. I can never blame myself. Damn it. It's not others' fault that I am the way I am, but I want to say it is, because I can never be as real as I am when I'm alone. It's like, if they were filling in the blanks of who I am, they figure out most of the right words, but then the ones they have to guess they always get wrong. I'm so damn inconsistent. I'm all made up of nouns and adjectives. Where there should be a verb there's just a wish.
The funny thing is, if I had to go into the living room and talk to my parents, I'd be fine. Completely collected. I don't do it on purpose. I don't have a thing aganst showing emotion. Or maybe I do. Maybe I don't want pity. Maybe I feel like they wouldn't understand, or maybe, more likely, I just don't want to show them. It never occurs to me that I don't want people to see my cry, but it must be true. I don't know what the thought process is there. It's just instinctual; when others are around I wipe my tears and try to hold them in. Or I pretend I scratched my eye. Or I have allergies. Maybe deep down I'm afraid they don't really want to know, or it would just add to the whole "outcast" thing. I don't do it on purpose. But I must care, or I wouldn't do it.
Months ago, last year, I got into a fight with Kim on Facebook, and just started bawling. I couldn't even say where it came from. I never can. I just sobbed. People tend to blame me, in some situations, because I'm never the victim, I'm never the one crying, or the one who's hurt, because I'm the one doing the hurting. But I hurt all the time. Even when I don't feel it, I feel scarred from the inside out; scars that will never heal, because I don't know how to make them. And my mom heard me sobbing from the living room, and asked what was wrong, and I managed to stifle my tears for a moment and say I was fine, and run upstairs when she came in to check on me, or go to the bathroom--whichever it was--because I was afraid the red blotchiness on my face would give me away. I didn't want to have to explain it. I didn't want to face that I was crying, or I didn't want to remember why, or I just didn't want my mom to know. It breaks out, out of nowhere, but always when I'm alone; with others I feel just as pathetic as people have told me I am my entire life.
No, no, that's not true. I can't blame people. Some things are nobody's fault. Some things are my fault. But I can't blame other people on things that only affect me. I'm determined not to be a hypocrite, but it never works out that way. I don't even know what I am. And I guess that my question is, if I don't know, how can anyone else?
Okay. I'm done with this. Internet, swallow my thoughts. I have some questions to ask.

CARIA LOVES JACQUES LOVES ADELE.

Today I watched 'To Kill a Mockingbird', and my favorite part was when, after they had lost, Atticus was leaving the court room, and the Pastor told Scout to stand up, because her father was passing. That was a brilliant moment, right there. Real moving and stuff. Heh.
I'M WRITING ANOTHER STORY, BASED IN FRENCH CIRCA THE 1800s, EXCEPT NOT REALLY.
Today I did not talk to Up at all, which shouldn't really make me sad, but it does.
And.......
That's all. Folks.

I WILL CONQUER THE WORLD, DAMMIT.

SO WHAT HAVE I BEEN UP TO? Besides the usual nefarious schemes (which is of course what I was doing to be grounded in the first place), I have: done homework. Played the Sims 2 every. day. Eaten. Slept [I've felt surprisingly rested the last week or so. Hurmmmm.]. Ipoded [So a word.]. Missed Sharicus, who has been absent from school for about a week [GET BETTER SHARICUS I MISS YOUUUUUU.]. Kermed. Moobered. Bennered? No. Dandaned? Somewhat. Wezzered? Not at all. I also had the great joy of completely reworking one of my firstest-ever stories, which was completely awful. It's a little bittersweet, because I'm changing so much, but at the same time the little voice in my head is going FINALLY.
HEY EVERYONE IMMABOUT TO GO ALL RAMBLING ON A WEIRDLY-NAMED STORY, SO IF YOU DON'T WANT TO READ ABOUT A STORY WITH A GUY NAMED 'ROP,' SKIP AHEAD.
When I call this thing old (which I haven't), I mean old. Like fifth/sixth grade old, when I first started really writing. It was about a girl named Danielle who ran away into the woods behind her home and come across the magical world of Ronal, and the furry woodland talking creature things that dwelled in it. There were five books, each with Danielle going back and saving Ronal once again. It was pretty much in inbred monster between Harry Potter and Narnia, with my own suckish writing and story-telling skills thrown in.
Now it's about a girl named Daniella (big change there, I know) who may or may not be insane. Woo.
See, she discovers a place NOT called Ronal, but Rowet, which is a kingdom of PEOPLE, not animals, in the land of Moetica. She's usually led there by a gray bird/lady who is, of course, some ethereal being, but sometimes finds it on her own (like the first time). It's all very real to her, of course, with the Guardians and the Faen and, yanno, the people, and the crazy vengeful queen from the north named Callia who is looking to conquer Rowet, who is actually the daughter of the young queen of Rowet, Ana. Oops, spoilers. Anyway. It's not like she goes around telling people she's there, but they still start to think she's crazy to some degree (like a big degree) and take her to a hospital and give her meds and when that doesn't work, send her to a psychiatrist to cure the crazy, and finally send her to a mental recovery place, where they send those crazy kids. All this time she's still going to Rowet and fulfilling her destiny and all that jazz. She doesn't have a particularly awful life, but her dad died when she was young, and she has no friends, and they all think she just has a chemical or two off that makes her so desperate to not be in her world that she creates her own idealized world in her head. But...COULD IT ACTUALLY BE REAL? Oooh, plot.
Oooh, I think I'll explain the Gaurdians and the Faen. Neither are gods, per se, but more like magical beings; the Faen are mortal and the Gaurdians are not. There are Gaurdians of Light and Darkness; of Light being Erebeas of the Moon, Adela of the Stars, Ferdean (fair-dee-an) of the Sun, Dolcene (dole-see-nee) of Fire, and Mebese (meh-bee-see) the Queen, who is of, roughly translated, 'the light within.' The Gaurdians of Darkness consist of Riparta of Chaos, Ven of Night, Salinoab of Shadow, Poresta of 'Nothingness', and Rop the King, of, roughly translated, 'the darkness within.' Yes, I have considerable fun making up names for these people. Personally, I would love the name 'Rop.'
AND THE FAEN. When I said they were mortal, I meant most of them. The ones that are equivalent to witches, or fairies, or something. The Sorien, the Forst Faen, are basically nymphs; the Helpsi, or Sky Faen, are basically angels. Both are like loosely-structured tribes of magical beings, taking many forms. The immortals consist of Ames, the Faen of Love, who is basically cupid; Ellia, the Faen of Knowledge, who takes the place of the ultimate librarian; she's the first person Daniella meets upon entering Moetica, in the Grand Hall, which is a library that stretches on endlessly. She's something like a fawn; entirely brown-colored and ancient and somewhere between withered and thriving. Finally there's Sepephna, Ferdean's daughter, who is the Faen of Fire; she could be seen as 'Spirit' or something along those lines.
So basically Daniella enters this world, with castles and crazy magic stuff, and defeats Callia, and falls in love with Caler, and ends up in a padded room. Zall good.

HEY EVERYONE THE RAMBLING ABOUT MY WEIRDLY-NAMED STORY IS OVER!
Alright. What have I done today? Not much. The other day I COMPLETELY showed up the teacher in understanding Shakespeare. The hell to the yeah. I almost did it again today, except no one was really sure what the line meant, and I threw out a guess, and he seemed to accept it, because he announced it to the class. THE HELL TO THE YEAH. And people say I'm not analytical. Pssht. PSSHT.
Tomorrow most of the day will be spent watching To Kill a Mockingbird in the auditorium. I still get the joys of math, science, and art, though.
TODAY I SKIPPED LUNCH AND HUNG OUT IN 3D ART WITH MOOBERS/SILVER. WOOT WOOT.
And now I will share my grades.
English 83.33. Surprisingly, this isn't bad.
Art 61.88. Because SOMEONE has so far not given me a grade on a 50-point assignment. Harumph.
Geometry 86.74. So apparently 9 points can bring your grade down 13--WHAT I GOT AN 86 ON THE BENCHMARK??? HOW??? IT WAS SO EASY!!!
Latin 90.80. I'm doing better in Latin than I am in my own language. Heh.
Science 90.88. I do amazingly well on the tests in this class, and yet I still have a 90. Wut.
World Civ. 90.23. This class makes me sad.
That....depressed me.

550--something.

So today I had a shitload of science homework, and someone told me I had pretty eyes :) So that's nice. Not the first thing. The second thing.
I should be writing, but...I haven't. I've written too much of that story just to forget about, but it's hard to be inspired, you know?
Yeah. I'm trying to think of something else to write here, but, you know, nothing's coming to me.
So...
Yeah...

STRAWBERRY: 1

I guess I should be going over my English essay to make sure it has "a strong topic sentence that clearly explains HOW the use of a particular element helped to enhance the work of literature, or a strong topic sentence that explains how say, Dickens' uses the Gothic motif more effectively than Bronte, because ...(reason)..." Yeah, I hate English. Maniscalco would say that what I wrote and what he requires is the difference between analytical and whatever the hell else (because I don't feel like thinking of a fancy term) but who the hell cares? I just so don't feel like thinking about anything.
This stemmed from a) my innate laziness regarding revision, and b) I had a little mini-breakdown when I looked at my science homework only to find he went over NONE OF IT in class, and reading the text book didn't help at all. I don't know the difference between a molecular and empirical equation, or whatever the hell it was. I MUST BE TAUGHT THINGS. DAMMIT.
Oh yeah, and, I went to Small Engines today during lunch :D I get the feeling that every time Kim invites me, she doesn't want me there the next day. Okay, that's not a feeling. Whatever. I talked to Up! Again! Yeah, I hate calling him that. He will be Wezzers. Anyway. He thinks I'm an idiot, and even though he's a jackass, I really wanna talk to him again to prove him wrong =.= Yeah, it's not going to work, but I MUST ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE. Haha.
His argument was that there is no right and wrong, only what society tells us is right and wrong; my argument was that in place of a judge society had to say so. Oh, and he's also damn conceited and, ehhh, self-assured in his own correctness. BUT he didn't notice when I called him Wezzers. Strawberry: 1.
And now I take my leave. This was meant to be written yesterday, haha.

Thoughtssssssssssss.

So today in World Civ. we actually breached on an interesting subject; if only the people in my HONORS class weren't so damn uninspired. They have such typical, insipid opinions on things like freedom, revolution, and natural law; things a person could discuss and define for hours.
Admittedly my definitions weren't very advanced, but only because we had, like, five minutes to write them. I'm glad we're finally starting the revolution unit, because, you know, I could get some ideas :) Anyway, it occurs to me that there is no such thing as freedom. None. Social freedom would be anarchy, but then it would cease to be social freedom, for concepts like 'social' wouldn't need to exist, and we would then be subjected to natural law. Nothing is free from natural law. I defined it, as quickly as I could, as "the connection and duty of all things to exist,"--if that makes no sense, it's because I couldn't finish it. If it does make sense, then congratulations; you're somewhat insane.
Anyway. I digress. If you go with the theory that everything is essentially made up of energy, then natural law would basically mean all this energy was equal. That doesn't make sense, you see, because science says all energy is not equal. I suppose it's actually more equality in nature, a balance of spiritual and physical awareness. Wow, this is making no sense. Stupid rambling head. What I mean to say is, in more poetic terms, is that everything is a balance because everything is inherently equal; the sun pulls the Earth and the Earth pulls the moon; the lion eats the antelope and the lion dies, his body absorbed into the ground, and the antelope eat the grass from the ground; the rapid deer could not survive without the immobile tree. People tend to forgot that humans are still subject to these laws, because humans are able to define these laws in their own bumbling language--humans are aware that there exists a balance that can never be broken, and therefore forget they there are just as bound to it as a bird is to the sky and a fish to water. And that's my main argument for why true freedom can never exist; all things are bound to natural order. I may jump, but gravity will always pull me down. I may swim through the ocean a million times and back, but I will never grow gills. I may imagine a million worlds in my head but they will never exist. I may pave over every tree in the world and yet still life would go on. The only absolute freedom is to transcend this order, which, as far as we are concerned, is impossible; the essence of oneself can never be changed or tampered with. Furthering that idea, it would be the duty--a duty to which every being is bound--to not try to tamper with the natural order, as that would only serve to destroy oneself, as all are a part of it.
Huh. That was rambling. What else did I write? I believe what I wrote for 'reason' was the acknowledgement of order, but I don't have much else to say about that.
Okay, now I remember what I was going to say; revolution is a natural attempt to restore natural order. Well, that came out wrong, because I thought this amazingly brilliant thought BEFORE I wrote the previous exorbiantly long paragraph, but let's see if I can recall it...In social terms, revolution is a movement towards freedom of oppresion, oppression being the antithesis of freedom; regardless that there is no such thing as true freedom--but I've argued that already. Okay, this isn't turning out well. I'm going to give up, and let other people argue this for me, because I completely forget the amazing thing I had to say about this =.=
So today pretty much sucked. It was just long. And boring. Plus I pretty much barely get the science lab, because math is HARD in science, and actual math was boring since it's SO easy, and English was spent doing vocab I ALREADY KNEW. But, apparently, there's some freaking awesome Health activity tomorrow, which Mel will not give us any information on. I'm a little scared, because tomorrow officially starts our "family life" (sex ed.) unit.
So I think I'm gonna go write. EVEN THOUGH I DON'T HAVE TO, YESH!

Public Service Announcement

I don't think this qualifies, but I'd like to take this moment to announce I have, indeedy, completed NaNoWriMo and written 50,000 words. HELL YEAH.
Yay for me. Wooo.

Waiting for the end...

...of this story.
So I like big font. Sue me.
I mean I'll probably go back soon, since big font also incredibly bothers me, but for now...enjoy the bigness! I can't wait till these damn characters falls asleep so I can get on with the day and the revolution-ness, because right now they're SO caught up in relationships and it really bothers me, because that's not the only thing the story is about. Oh, and I've decided John's icy cool exterior hides an extremely angry, troubled man. So basically his options are distant or pissed. Sucks to be him.
...
...
...Nah, I still love him :)

HOLIDAY TIDINGS.

Happy Thanksgiving, friends! No turkey for us tonight, since my mom is working, but we'll have all that on Saturday. I actually know what I want to get Kim and Shari for Christmas already! Excitement! Not that they read my blog anymore, but I won't disclose just in case. I'm actually not sure about Kim's gift, but hell, who really cares? :)
The reason for my cheerfulness--considering I've been pretty out of it these past few days--is that I am MORE than caught up in NaNoWriMo, clocking in at 42,105 words as of now, with more to come. I've actually been consistently past the goal since Monday, which is awesome. Currently in what I've written tonight, there's been a lot of yelling and crying. Oh snap. Let me share with you a sentence from the story:
“GET THE F*CK OUT!”
Hell yeah. Sorry to all you sensitive people out there, but that's just the line in the story. Personally I think it's a masterpiece. ENGLISH LANGUAGE FTW.
In case you haven't noticed, I'm using quite a large font. I think it's exciting. *sniffs*
So I kinda can't get over how much I love John, the character in my story. He's so awesome. In the last five pages alone he's beat the sh*t out of some jerk, pushed someone down the stairs, made out with the protaganist (Emilia), unabashedly admitted his love for said protaganist, put said protaganist before the entire country because he loves her, cried about his sister's death, and defied his jackass of a leader. He's a damn badass. Plus he has a house in New Jersey which makes us SIMILAR. Yeah, I love him. I might actually love him more than Aden, my fairy-with-a-dark-side whose not afraid to show his feelings. The similarity between them is that they're both not afraid to cry in front of their girlfriends. CUZ REAL MEN CRY, BOOYAH.
Okay, I wouldn't blame you if you skipped over that paragraph. Haha. Now I write. HAPPY TURKEY DAY Y'ALL.
How could you not love this face???

556

Because last post was 555, which is cool cuz it's repititive.
I CAUGHT UP IN NANOWRIMO. YEAH. I ACTUALLY WROTE OVER 2000 WORDS, AND DID ALL MY HOMEWORK, WHICH INCLUDED AN ESSAY THAT TOOK TWO AND A HALF HOURS! I AM THE BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMB!
Of course now I'm struggling to reach the normal day's amount, so...haha.
I have other things to write about, I guess, but I can't think of any of them.
So....
Goodbye...

Monday, November 22, 2010

This is the crappy writing I've done:

Can I write 2000 words in thirty minutes? No. No I cannot. But this is what I've written so far, on the subject of riots, which I have no experience in, but hell. Enjoy my choppy, repetitive crazy-bad thing some people are generous enough to call writing.

I ran. Excitement thrilled me; I was free, I was alive. Soon I would be caught in the crowd; the ebb and flow, the push and pull, the pulse and the motion and the fire of the crowd—that was what I wanted. That feeling of defiant helplessness—that was what a revolution was. You could feel it in your bones, in your veins; you could taste in the air, the fundamental change of human nature—if only for a moment. I had been in a riot before, and I had never felt angry—never vengeful—only free. Like I was changing the world just by existing.
If only.
The streets vanished behind me; I gave no more thought to Tracy and Katie and Steven, because I could not afford to have ties when I threw myself into the mob. I could get hurt, I could get killed, and it was so much easier to take that risk and be completely free and open and wild—flying, really—when I had no thought of the family I could leave behind. It was easier that way.
Soon I heard the roar of the crowd, and knew they were not yet at the White House—they were taking their time, destroying everything they could. Even the places that weren’t run by the government—although, what wasn’t run by the government nowadays? But perhaps they just wanted to make a statement; they wanted to show how far they were willing to go. Or they were so, so angry that it didn’t matter to them what they destroyed, as long as they could watch it burn.
I ran.
I saw them—spilling into the museum district, the tourist destination, that prized jewel of American history and splendor—the Smithsonian, the Lincoln Memorial, the Mall, and the White House, packed into a space less than a mile wide, and about to be burned. I saw them, screaming things—just screaming, deafening, mindless, wordless screams, and yet one could feel the meaning in them, could feel the anger and the oppression and the rebellion and the voice.
I reached the back person, brandishing my arms; I felt myself be swallowed by the crowd and I lost myself with a wave of fists before my eyes.
The energy passed through me, and I felt weapons in my hands—weapons of fire, of spirit and strength—and I threw them to the heavens. I felt the motion of bodies around me, even though the closest were nearly four feet away, chanting, screaming—demanding a sacrifice, I imagined, for the crimes done unto them. It moved forward, ever down the street, and I was suspended between people, and unable to act on my own accord. It didn’t matter in the slightest; even if I were capable of moving myself through this crowd, I would be in the same place; I would be singing the same song.
They moved around me like a river torrent, and I moved with them, a single lone body caught in the thrashing sea. But now—now I was not trapped in it; I was not sinking below the surface—I was riding the brilliant undulating waves on a board made of fury—of rage, of passion—and yet I felt none of it; I was above that, above the world—I threw my head back, and tasted the salt and bitter cold on my face, and let the violent water drench me through and through, and screamed and cried and thrashed; I could not be focused on this, not here. This was not a goal to be accomplished, or a battle to be won; this was a life to be lived.
I could make that life possible. I had to believe that; I had to feel it in the core of my veins. If I did not than I had wasted everything.
Did I? I had to.
Yeah, woo, I totally did not proofread this; I just want a distraction from the rest of my writing, which there is pretty much no way I will finish tonight. In other news, I wrote a kickass essay. Damn you, essay, for taking time away from NaNoWriMo! Damn you!

Sunday, November 21, 2010

So I can't decide if I like a guy.

Which I guess sounds wrong.
Damn.
Wow.
I'm afraid if I say I like him, I actually won't and it'll fizzle out before I can actually like him.
Well, really, I'm afraid I don't like him that much.
I just happen to like him more than other people at the time.
I don't likelike him.
....Do I?
....Why do I want to?
WHY DO I WANT TO? That's a remarkably good question.
Why do I feel the necessity to like someone? Especially even though it always--always--ends badly. I'm just not the type of person, physically or mentally, guys fall for. Especially not guys like him; I can tell that from a mile away. And yet, even though I know this--completely and utterly know this; there's no qualms here--I still want to like someone. Some could theorize that it's been a part of my identity for so long that I feel unlike myself not to like someone. I just know I have nothing to look forward to, no goals to acclompish; and yet at the same time I still feel the pain, if not as acutely, of being rejected. My heart spikes when he's online, but I'm not compelled to stay online until he's off, just to make sure I don't miss anything. I kind of love reading everything he writes (though I still haven't read any fiction; damn). I'm jealous of his friends. Okay, I'm jealous of everyone's friends. I'm a jealous person. That doesn't count. I wish I was partners with him in more school projects so he could get to know me and decide I'm not the weirdest/ditziest person on the planet (which I'm pretty sure he thinks I am.) Ugh.
So part of me thinks it's just my incapibility to feel things strongly. Like there's fuzz around my heart and every emotion is filtered through that. Like things aren't really happening. I've felt like that forever. Because I feel something that feels like like, but it's not strong enough for me to go declaring it to all my friends. Ugh. UGH.
So now I can't decide if I like a guy, and part of me wants to, just to feel fulfilled, and part of me doesn't want to, because everything sucks anyway; why make it worse? Ugh. I'm going to bed.

And now you'll be mad at me.

[Hysteria--Muse]
So this is what I've done today: homework. That's pretty much it. A science lab and a PowerPoint in English that was, you know, SUPPOSED to be a group effort. Whatever, it wasn't particularly hard. I also wrote 2000 words for NaNoWriMo, which STILL makes me 1000 behind, so damn. Plus I have an essay due tomorrow, which, shocker, I didn't do. You know what? I don't even care. I am so TOTALLY not interested. I mean I'll do it tomorrow, obviously, but I don't care. Of course I guess it's sad that I've already reached the point where I just want to say f*ck it and not do any homework, because usually that's in the last week of school, but hey...this sucks. This just sucks. School sucks. I mean, I've said school sucks before, but this is just a whole new level.
[Feeling Good--Muse]
So I feel like being political. So here we go:
Religion--I don't care. I just don't care. Do you think religion is stupid, and everyone who follows one is a moron? Good for you. Have you find your way through Jesus/Buddha/whoever the hell else? Good the hell for you. You do that. You be happy there. But GUESS WHAT. I DON'T CARE. I DON'T CARE I DON'T CARE I DONT CAAAAAAAAAARE. I NEVER EVER EVER WANNA HEAR YOU. KAY?
Health Care--Stop being selfish and give universal health care. Not everyone is middle f*cking class. Yeah, the economy's bad. You know what else is bad? Your selfishness. What now, are you gonna cite examples about people who don't deserve health care? I will shove your 'what if?'s down your throat. WHAT IF HE WAS DRUNK DRIVING. WHAT IF SHE'S ON WELFARE AND DOESN'T HAVE A JOB/DOESN'T CONTRIBUTE. Well, guess what? What about the people who have a shitty job and can't afford 50,000 dollars for a broken arm? What about the people who work 12 hours a day and got suckered into a shitty plan? What, did I just throw those 'what-if's back in your face? Because, SHOCKER, not everyone who's poor is the scum of the earth. Get a soul.
Democrats vs. Republicans--Here's a tip for you: there is no Democrat and Republican. There is only scumbag and scumbag. Some politicians are worse scumbags than others. Their level of evilness is not correlated to whatever the hell they decide to call themselves. Believing there's a difference is a delusion, and you are delusional. Is that clear, now?
Gay Marriage--I'll repeat the same argument I have for religion: who cares? Really, who cares? Why is it personally affecting you if two dudes get hitched? WHY are you so SELF-RIGHTEOUSLY PIG-HEADED that you would DARE call this a sin? Yeah, guess what else is a sin? Judgment. Foundations of marriage? Really? Have you heard of DIVORCE? Yeah. Stop pushing your beliefs on other people. No one cares what you think. NO. ONE.
Abortion--Oh, come on. I won't say 'Who cares?' because obviously this is more serious than gay marriage, because this involves an actual life. Instead I'll say this: what gives you the right? Is abortion murder? Fine, then; you pay for baby clothes, baby food, diapers, education, doctor visits, toys; and then pay for college, too, while you're at it. What, you don't want to? You can't afford it? You can't give that child the quality of life it deserves? You're not willing or able to disrupt your entire life to take care of it? Now throw some 'what-if's at me. What if some girl's a slut and uses abortion as birth control? Oh damn, yeah, that's terrible. What if some girl is RAPED? What if they know they're going to have a seriously disfigured child, physically or mentally, that they are unable to take care of and would have a terrible life anyway? What if the baby is ill and probably wouldn't survive the full pregnancy? Now what? You stutter and say murder is a sin, regardless? Obviosly abortion is never a positive. Obviously there are situations where it's misused. But YOU--you, you self-righteous hypocrite--YOU have no right to tell someone if they can have an abortion or not. None at all.
Geez, what else is there? I can't think of any. I don't feel like it. Actually I guess I didn't feel like being political; I was just in a bad mood. Now you get to read it and be mad at me for disagreeing/being insulting/cursing. Just pick one. I'm tired. I'm going to write.

I'm not breaking down, I'm breaking out.

'Despairant' is not a word. It should be.

Well! Today has been supremely uneventful. I did a worksheet. That's pretty much it, homework-wise. I still have to make a PowerPoint on whether or not Shakespeare wrote his works, and type up a lab report that was apparently due Friday. So, woo. Plus Sharicus and I were talking about going to the mall, so woo even more. But just because I feel like I have no time whatsoever. Not because it's not awesome going with Sharicus to the mall :)

I saw Harry Potter today! Yeah, I must say, it was pretty awesome. SO much better than the sixth movie, which sucked ass. I won't even apologize for my garish cursing right there, because it's true. The sixth movie sucked ass. But this one was great, haha. It just annoyed me SO MUCH, because I felt like I was only watching half a movie...yeah. Haha.

I love this song. Actually, I love that line that I have as my title, which comes from this song. Like, seriously, it's epic. I want that line on a shirt and I will wear that shirt EVERY DAY. And it will be so epic, no one will care that I've been wearing the same shirt everyday, because it's SO EPIC. I'd be like, "What? What? You think I'm gonna BREAK DOWN because everything sucks? Eff you. I'm BREAKING. OUT." And that's exactly how it would be.
See. See there. I did NOT use the f-word. Even though it would've been SO much more effective to get my point across. SEE.

I also love this song. No really. Now I'll get back to NaNoWriMo, cuz I'm damn far behind.

The woooooooooooorld is eeeeeeeeeeeendiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!

Okay not really. But the WEEK is. Tomorrow is Friday! And then the weekend, and then another week, and then the weekend, and then so on...and so forth...
I am totally avoiding NaNoWriMo right now, like I do every day. It depresses me how skeletal and baby-like this story is. The message is either all at once so it loses it's meaning or nonexistent. And because I'm writing it from the point of view that I am--that is to say, a young woman in a rebel group who has by this point completely forgotten that she killed a guy and is only focuses on important things in giant paragraphs of death while everything else almost has nothing to do with the point of the story--it's hard to focus on the message. It's hard to write the message. Although some could say her personal insanity--or at least, the insanity that keeps fluctuating becomes sometimes I just don't damn feel like writing like a crazy person--represents the shitty way the world is going, and her deep devotion to protecting her niece is a parallel for the deep patriotism and revolutionary spirit she feels--but I digress.
So basically, once I get to the end of the month, I'm going to completely change the format so it's in short, 10-20 page chapters, and start it before she ever shoots the guy. I'm probably also going to really map out the plot line and develop the character's past more, get rid of some superfluous details--like their double names; that's just bad writing right there.
Actually, now that I think of it, I could probably do a Before/After type of thing--as shooting the President is supposed to be some huge tipping point in the revolution, which should really have been going on for awhile, but seems to have just started when I started the story, which wouldn't make sense at all. It should really be a pivotal moment for Emilia, too; not just something she freaks out about for awhile until more important plot lines come up.
Normally I'd start writing this right now, but I feel like I have to finish this version--this very, very bad version; I don't know why. But I'll probably start planning everything out tonight...yeah...
Of course it will be fun rewriting 100 pages. Woo damn.

Wednesday.

It is. All day I've felt like it should be Tuesday, and all day yesterday I felt like it should be Thursday. Stupid days.
I feel like a slogan for NaNoWriMo should be: NaNoWriMo. Writer's block isn't an option. Cuz seriously, I have been unable to come up with ANYTHING yesterday and today, and now I'm 3,000 words behind, and that number doesn't seem to be going down. I have the focus of a squirrel when I'm not writing a part I like--which is now. But it's getting to a part I do like, so I have to go through it. Dammit.
I have Model UN tomorrow, and this is how much I want to go: 0. I hate staying after. I hate the late bus. I hate getting home at 5--especially for a twenty-minute meeting. At the same time, though, I kind of have to go--that whole responsibility thing and stuff. If I staid home one week, I'd stay home every week.
I really have nothing to write about. I'm just avoiding NaNoWriMo.
Sigh.

And people wonder why I get headaches...

So this is my day:
[Geometry] Period 1- I hate Uglyskirt. This class is boring. This class is easy. TRIANGLES REALLY? I hate Uglyskirt. SHE JUST REPEATED HERSELF AGAIN HOLY HELL. I WILL SHOVE A RUSTY HOT POKER DOWN HER EYE. Can't wait till health...stupid triangles...
[Latin] Period 2- I hate these people. I hate these people. I hate these people. No, wait, I'm apathetic about these people. Latin is mechanical. Small Door is nice. Stupid people.
*now, walking down the stairs, is when I feel my trademark apathetic despair, and consider asking Kim and Sharicus if they ever feel like running screaming out of the classroom, or punching everyone in the face, and shoving pencils into soft, furry things, but decide against it*
[Health] Period 3- Woo health. Daniel! *blushgiggle* HEY SHARICUS AND KI--oh wait lecture. Damn. HEY SHARICUS AND KI--oh wait end of the class. Damn.
*at this point, walking with Kim to the F-wing, I wish longingly to join Small Engines and chill with Wezzers, but alas...no...*
[Lunch] Period 4- I hate lunch. I hate lunch. I don't even EAT lunch. No one is talking to me. Sanguine is drawing and being sad. I AM BEING SAD TOO.
[English] Period 5- Woo home stretch! Oh wait...English. This isn't so bad. THIS SUCKS. This isn't so bad. THIS SUCKS. Damn essays.
*at this time I despair that I am going to world civ.*
[World Civ.] Period 6- Good God is this class over yet?
[Art] Period 7- This is fun! Except for the teacher. Man, she's anno--WHAT CLASS IS OVER ALL READY?
*I hate science. I hate science.*
[Science] Period 8- IhatescienceIhatescie--OHHAI CLASS IS OVER WOO.

And then I go home.

I am totally avoiding my lab right now. Pretty much half of it is really easy and half of it is hard, the hard part being the Sources of Error, Conclusions, and Background. Damn, the background. It's worth 15 points and pretty much takes up half a page just in explanation. I'm waiting for someone to get online (and answering lab questions, of course) so I can just copy off of theirs...:D...and find out the difference between a cold and hot flame, which I vaguely remember. Sigh.
