  • so my grades were finally all up today as I predicted 4 A's & 2 B's

    GO ME!

    I've been enjoying the summer so far just doing nothing (besides the daily lists of stuff my dad wants me to do) but I think I'm probably start working at my dad's office if he needs me too in the next coming weeks...

    my birthday is Friday!

    I'm pretty sure we're going out for sushi (come on got to keep with the tradition) and we're probably going to Hamada (where else would we go?)

    so yea made this the other day wanted to know what you guys thought of it (-->clickie)

    ah that is the product of cruising around a stock images site and the inspiration just hit...I like it and I love the fonts used (I just recently downloaded them and couldn't wait to try them out)

  • so I got a new header

    made it last night which wasn't the smartest thing to do starting it at 11 and then trying to figure out the new coding I found for LJ which took me forever because one thing would be off and I would have to search through all the coding for the thing to change and LJ kept rearranging my code so that didn't help

    although I have to say it looks better in my LJ (-->clickie) and I love the fact that it looks like I have a paid account there when I don't

    in other LJ news because I can't rant about it there b/c well people know the person so I'd rather it not find its way to her

    so I go and check my FList like usual and my friend has this entry that says she's doing a friend cut and I'm like okay click and low and behold my username is listed and I'm like OMG WTF so she's like comment if you would like the real reason why your name is there so I did and this was her response:

    We've been friends for a long time and I feel really bad cutting you. But I noticed that we never seemed to comment on each other's posts anymore and when we talk it's just about random superficial stuff. There doesn't seem to be anything there, if you know what I mean. I'm really sorry but sometimes I just struggle to find things that we have in common, apart from D/G and that's kind of faded out. :(

    so I'm like okay...don't know really how to respond to that...but I'm like life isn't about comments and I kinda agree that we haven't talked since she kinda insulted my graphic design abilities when she's always told me how she liked then tells me that they weren't good enough for her icon community so yea its a bit difficult to talk to her when I would usually go and talk to her about stuff involving graphic even after that incident that happened a long time ago it seems I didn't cut her of my FList now did I...no b/c I would never do that to anyone even if it is online

    ...people are stupid and fake sometimes...oh well I adopted early on that if you don't want to talk to me I don't want to talk to you for situations like these...

    in other news

    ONLY A WEEK LEFT

    and then the following week I only have to come in for 2 finals later on

    and then FREEDOM

    to sleep that is...I really need to change my sleeping habits 3 am is not a good time to go to sleep especially when I usually wake up at 6:30...gosh I hate morning people...they don't let me get any sleep...*coughmydadcough*  although if he keeps waking me up even when I'm on vacation I'm going to be pissed

    I talked to my cousin yesterday for a bit online

    seems she hasn't gotten into anymore trouble since the last time I heard something from dad...and she said as much but they're apparently doing okay

    except that its going to be weird going up there b/c she said that Fletch (her dog) got hit (I assume by a car) and died and Holly (my grandma's dog) had to be put down b/c she got out of my grandma's yard and killed a couple of rabbits, a cat, and a dog (and of course my dad hadn't told us that until Theresa mentioned it on Easter walking home from church...I mean come on you don't want to hear that kind of thing on Easter)

    so this summer...I know I have relatives coming down in June and we're going up to Ohio at some point for Aaron's graduation

    and we're going to avoid the subject of him not accepting a full ride scholarship to Ohio State...idiot

    and now back to my summer plans...if we get our passports and everything plans out smoothly and my dad has no troubles at work then we might go to Italy this summer...if not then he said we would go sometime this year...which would put us at winter break if we can't go...

    what else

    classes are okay...

    but if you ever take a statistics class don't take Bell he puts me to sleep @ 8 am (damn registration times for freshmen) and I hate his test because its a 20 multiple choice test (who ever heard of a multiple choice test for a math class that wasn't like a final or something) and that's basically what your grade is b/c he doesn't take up any of the homework or assign anything else...so yea if you miss a couple on the test your screwed b/c its not like you can get partial credit for your work

    but I did good on the first and last test we took...the 2 in the middle have me a bit worried but the final can replace your lowest test score and I know that thing can't be 20 questions

    and I've realized I've made this entry really long so *thumbs up* to you if you've actually read this thing

    I know my life is boring (what life you say...I ask myself all the time)

    so yea my dad and Theresa aren't together anymore or so that's what Patrick told me

    can we get a FINALLY

    ...gosh its been along time...I mean I know its been like 6 years since me and Patrick moved in with dad and then it was probably a couple years before that when we were living with mom but I couldn't really tell ya when we first met her

    but really I'm suprised it lasted this long

    ah the good old days when me and patrick would sit around telling stories on how much we despise her...you can tell we've told them alot if you asked us now...

    but really it is suprising I mean...

    they used to be engaged but that ended along time ago probably within the time period that we were living with her when we first moved

    and then she kicked us out of her house which we moved out on my birthday that year (and I can safely say that was the worst birthday EVER and it wasn't because of the moving)

    and this list of stories...could go on forever...really

    but the thing is she keeps calling the house (WTF!?!?!) and I have yet to talk to her b/c frankly I was too shocked to see her number on the caller id...

    frankly now...I'm just wasting time

    and I'm trying to out do a personal record of longest update ever

    or it could be that I'm supposed to be researching for my theory paper (can you say OMGWTF...really what was he thinking?)

    crap just realized I had theory homework to finish

    well congrats if you've finished

    but really I only want to update to see what you guys thought of the new header

    I think its pretty

    well later

  • There starting production on OotP next week who else is excited about that I know I am

    And if you haven't checked out your nearest HP news site you'll have to b/c they've announced a bunch of people they've casted for roles

    This xanga I feel is dead...I'm slowly trying to get it back to life...but life is eh

    Why is it that everyone seems to be having so many problems lately...I thank God that I don't but its hard for someone like me who wants to help my friends solve their problems but can't do much but just listen which I do anyway b/c I'm a listener by nature (hence why I'm quiet sometimes) but its not just RL friends either

    The only things that I have problems with lately is that I can't seem to get things in order the disorganization is driving me nuts...and I'm tired of my current header and haven't a clue what to change it to

    and my guitar is out of tune and I haven't practiced since last friday

    and guitar tech is tomorrow

    can we say oops

    I have Dies Irae stuck in my head its one of my favorite movements from Mozart's Requiem so far Lacrimosa comes second if you come across a recording of it...listen to it...and the only other 2 that we've learned is Kyrie and Confutatis. Kyrie is a hard one...its a double fugue and I like Confutatis too except I like the guys part in the beginning and then after the phrase changes I like my part

    newho gotta get some sleep

  • cross-posting this from my LJ for more responses:

    My loffly F-List I was wondering if you could help me out with a project I'm doing right now

    Its mostly going to be a visual project with some words but mostly made up out of pictures. It's supposed to reflect me but not how I see myself as it is entitled 'as the world sees me' So I came up with several questions for you to answer that I might be able to get images to represent them. I might add to this list later so be on the lookout for that. Just leave your answers in a comment (and if you want to explain your answer you can) Thanks guys! :D

    1. When you think of me what do you see?

    2. If you had to choose 2 (or 3) colors to match my personality, what would they be?

    3. What things remind you of me?

    4. If you had to choose a theme song for me what would it be? (song title & artist please!)

    5. If you compared me to a character in a book/movie/tv show who would I remind you of?

    6. Describe my personality in a few (or several) words.

    7. What is your most prominent memory of me?

    8. If you had to place me in a movie, what movie or what kind of movie would I be in? What role would I play?

    9. If I was written into a book what book or what kind of book would I be in? What would my character be like?

    (and just to keep it even for now)

    10. Is there anything else in general that you would like to say about me?

    Thanks guys this will really help me out :D
