02:15 am So, this is how my screwy week has gone:
Saturday: At 1 AM I decided it was time for bed. And then my laptop got a virus. Not any old virus, however, a really horrible one that could not be taken off ny anything but reformat. So until 3 am I was trying to take it off and fell asleep on the couch with the computer in my lap. At 5 am I woke up and stumbled to bed completely defeated.
Sunday: My last day of work. I was supposed to be at work at 12pm so I had my alarm set for 11am. At 11 am my alarm rings, I freak out(the sound scared me), fall off my bed(in the 3 feet space between my dresser and bookshelf that are there so i would NOT fall) and smack my ankle in my bookshelf. Of course, since my ankle was swelling, my mother forbid me from going to work, which I was totally going to do. And then I had my breakdown. I started crying, and shaking, and cursing, and owing from the pain. The rest of the day was spend trying to get all my files together that were going to be moved to the new partition when I reformatted...and then it turned out that it would not allow me to get it on a new partition so I had to start moving my files to my desktop, I wasn't even a quarter done before I had to go to bed.
Monday: I spend the day packing for my trip to Russia plus moving files, 2 gigs at a time, to my desktop because my transfer cable worked but the CD that came with it didn't have a license # and the stupid program wanted one. I also caught up on most of Death Note. I am on ep 30. Finally after a whole day of torturing myself, it was done and I reformatted the laptop. By the time it was done I was falling asleep sitting up.
Tuesday: After 4 hours of sleep I drove 6 and a half hours to Oxford. I was tense to begin with but after the drive I can barely move. I am going to work on my documents for graduation with my advisor tomorrow and hopefully that will be resolved. I am exhausted and the only reason I am still up is that I am still trying to install programs on my laptop. I have had blood-shot eyes for the last 4 days.
The financial aid office is full with idiots. It has been obvious for the last few months that I will not be going to school in the spring. Also, the scholarship I send them was specifically for the study abroad. And then, for some bezire reason, they decided to split my study abroad scholarship in two, half now and half in the spring, which leaves me with not enough money for Russia. How hard is it to read the little comment that says i am not going to be attending in the spring and that scholarship is only for the fall??!!
I am too exhausted to rant more and my ankle hurts. I am going to bed! Current Mood: exhausted

02:49 am Ok, if you decide to watch Veronica Mars, don't watch the last episode of season three since it is a horrible cliff hanger and the damn show was canceled at season 3.
In other news, there is this teenage show I am watching called Aliens in America. It cracks me up. It is about an american kid in high school, who is a loser, whose family gets an exchange student from Pakistan. What makes this show great is that I feel like I am watching my high school years all over again happening to someone else and it seems so funny to me because it is from the americans' point of view instead of the exchange student. I completely understand the cultural differences and the confusion about many of the american social "rules" so it seems funny to me how americans perceive him since I know it is very much how I am being perceived. It is a show that plays greatly on culture differences and instead of exaggerating them, it shows them exactly the way they are. I watch this show and I crack up every time I see something from the american point of view that might seem so weird and I know I can say that I have definitely been there and done that. So if you want to know what it is like to move to the US from another country and start school here by yourself, then watch this. It is comical but would be a bit serious for you as well. To me it is just a reminder of the shit I went through and the miscommunication. It is also a reminder as to why I became the person that I am. And in the end it still cracks me up...Lol
I was supposed to work tomorrow, but I found someone to work for me so I can spend my time working on the graduation paperwork.
I talked to(messaged with) Tristan today and apparently he is going to work in Alaska for a year and take online classes. Very out of the blue, but hey, if it makes him happy then that is all that matters. He will be cold...colder than me...BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!
I am talking to my Bulgarian friend that I grew up with. I found her online by accident and now we are chatting and catching up. Makes me happy to catch up to what has happened to her and to all of our friends back then. Also, I officially know that Dimitar is alive and well. She saw him a few months ago. Now I can relax and move on. YAY. *murmuring to self* where to find a new pretty boy... Current Mood: awake

07:29 pm Ok, while many of you are upset about the push back of HBP, I am quite happy with the decision. Mainly because if it wasn't pushed back I will have to watch it in Russia and either have Russian subtitles or even worse, Russian Dub...I don't trust dubs no matter from which country they are. So, this makes me happy because I get to see it in the summer in the US. Also, I think Jo might be happy as well because she gets to see it in English instead of Chinese as well. Lol My luck is working, me thinks, yes it is! Current Mood: amused

01:42 am YAY PEZ!!! I like him better than Weevil or maybe, notice the maybe, even Logan. Me thinks he wins. Me is right!!! Lol Current Mood: amused Current Music: VM

03:05 am Ok, lots has happened in the last few days but it is too late and I need sleep. I gotta go to work tomorrow so i will update then. Just for now, I am finally talking to a friend that I thought had forgotten I existed about 6 years ago. YAY AND I am practicing my bulgarian...damn, it is SO much easier to speak in English. sad!
P.S. I am still addicted to Tokio Hotel. *squeel*
P.S.P.S. I am half-way through Good Omens and me likie!!! But it is Neil Gaiman so that is kinda obvious. Lol Current Mood: sleepy Current Music: Tokio Hotel- Durch den Monsun

01:41 am I never thought I would hate Arron Echolls as much as I do...
Also, I am in LOVE with Tokio Hotel (German band that is good and really hot)!
I have been feeling sick to my stomach for the last few days, which sucks, and I don't know why. I have also decided to go on a diet(as in no junk food and cut my portions to a third of what they used to be). And I am doing crunches and stuff.
My hair has grown about 2 inches and, obviously, that means that my mousy brown roots are showing. I want to dye my hair again but I think my mother would kill me and dance on my grave. Oh well, make sure you leave some flowers for me k? Right now I am getting to the point that I hate my hair so much I want to shave it all off and the only way to fix that is to either shave it or dye it...I think I am going to go for the dyeing. Lol I will post pics when it is done. I am thinking about getting my hair cut but I am afraid they might screw up my hair again so I don't know if I should risk it. Once I post the pics I would love your opinion on whether I should risk it or not.
Now to bed!
P.S. I have only one week of work left and then I can start getting ready for my trip. YAY. Unless it turns out that my graduation papers need to be in by October(the website said Feb). If it is october then I have to go to Oxford and get the ppls to sign them and then turn them in. GAAAAH!!!
P.S.P.S. One of the guitarists of Tokio Hotel looks like my cousin on my father's side. As in this is what my cousin would look like right now and he is even the right age. http://www.totalconverter.com/img/TokioHotel2.jpg (the one in the middle) Creepy!

09:51 pm So, some ppl wanted to tell me to cut the spoilers for Braking Dawn, but...um...guys? Everyone on my f-list that wanted to read the books(that reads my journal) has already read it. The ones that haven't don't read my journal but my comments, like the BNFs (and Weasel). Lol So I knew I was safe. Lol
Also, I got The Host yesterday and I am almost done. It is GREAT!!! My mom and I got in an argument about it even though she has never read the damn thing. I got her to want to read Good Omens, since I finally got it, and she is very ecstatic. Lol Current Mood: ecstatic

02:32 am Ok, DONE!!! And I was right about Jacob...so, you guys were right, I like him now but only after the imprinting. Also, who is up for Jacob/Nessie? 'Cause I AM!!! Also, some Garrett/Katie. YAY! And, btw, I had no idea I can go that long without breathing. I kept forgetting to do it, I have to say this book was very intense for me. Me Very Happy!!!
FICS NOW!!! Current Mood: cheerful

August 6th, 2008
02:26 am Ok, I am at the part of the book where I am not terrified anymore and I actually can't stop grinning. I am done with chapter one of book three. And now I am calm and happy enough to sleep. YAY. Bed now!
P.S. I have not read what has happened to Jacob and the baby but I have several theories. Tomorrow I will know if they are right. Lol Hopefully I will be done with the book tomorrow and can go back to Veronica Mars. I miss Logan and Weevil. Lol Current Mood: cheerful

August 5th, 2008
01:07 am Ok, I just read chapter 7 of Breaking Dawn and encountered the SURPRISE. WTF? I am actually a bit terrified and I don't know if I can go to sleep now. Like, a surprise like that is what my nightmares are made of. my body is practically shaking and I keep whimpering at random intervals. Seriously, I know it is rediculas to be terrified of that book like that, but seriously, those are my nightmares. Please tell me that it gets better and is not as terrifying. Current Mood: scared

02:09 am So, yesterday I got hit on by a REALLY HOT guy at work and after that another good looking guy was hitting on me AND he gave me a rose, bought me a drink and left me a tip. Lol I was on a ROLL!!!
Today, not so much. However, I got 4 pairs of jeans, which is good because mine were falling apart, and I took a nap.
I am trying to finish Eclipse so I can start on Breaking Dawn, which I have, but I have found no time between Veronica Mars and work. Hopefully I can read some more tomorrow. I also got a Twilight calender(pics from the movie) for 2009 and YAY Edward!!! Um, anyone know where I can find good Edward/Emmet? Because I am weird!
I need new music. If you have any new mixes, pls post them. 'cause I am desperate! Or just tell me the names of good, new(as in nothing I have heard so far), bands.
And now to bed. I am exhausted! Current Mood: exhausted

02:00 am You know, when someone dies in fandom(any ones that I am in), even if I didn't know them or of them, I still feel sad. A person that was in the same community as me is gone and I would now never know them. I would never talk to them or have them be a part of my life. It is a missed chance at knowing someone who might understand me better than anyone else or might change my life. It is like loosing a good friend before you even knew them and all the potential is gone.
Rest in peace unknown friend, whoever you are, and lets hope for better luck next time. Current Mood: drained

August 3rd, 2008
03:52 am Ok, first, I would like to mention that I sold my car...did I tell you that earlier? We sold it yesterday for $3000.
Anyway, onto my comment for Veronica Mars, and no there will be no spoilers:
I just have to say that the part where Weevil and Logan were beating the crap out of each other was the part where there were yells heard coming from out of my room. The yells were "KISS!!! KISS DAMN YOU! YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO! JUST KISS ALREADY AND SPARE US THE SEXUAL TENSION! I SAID KISS!!!"
Also, Lily! YAY!
Have I mentioned Veronica is BRILLIANT? 'Cause she is!!!
Anyway, in other news, I woke up this morning with a HORRIBLE back pain. And I mean, so bad that I could barely move. At first I was very confused as to why. Halfway to work I realized it is because yesterday I moved about 40 boxes of Gatorate into a display for the store. So my back was killing me all day to the point that I couldn't bend at all and no pills helped. Hopefully tomorrow it will be better.
I have talked to the girl that will watch the fuzz-ball and she is really nice. She has to re-train hers to use the litter box and she said she will throw mine in the mix as well. Hopefully she will be able to train him. Man, I can train cats and dogs to do ANYTHING but deaf ferrets are beyond me! My mother has told me that if the girl gets him trained she might not hate him as much. She will still hate him for smelling but at least he will not be pooping on her floor. Even though it is on a special rug I got specifically for that purpose and it gets cleaned regularly.
Tomorrow I am doing laundry to get the smell of ferret out of anything washable and my mom and I are going shopping for jeans since I am too fat to fit in any of the free, expansive, clothes that my mom's co-worker brought today. They fit my mother perfectly but my fat ass is a bit too BIG. So new jeans are in order. I am hoping to loose weight when I am in Russia. I am most likely going to since I am picky about food and I will feel uncomfortable telling them what I eat and I do not. So, I will end up eating a little and then loosing weight. Lol At least I will have lots of veggies and fruits. And hey, I might even turn vegetarian if I turn out to be too picky about my food. that, of course, will stop when i come back. Lol Current Mood: exhausted

03:59 am And if you were looking for a reason to watch Veronica Mars, this is it:
Joss Whedon, who made a guest appearance on the season two episode "Rat Saw God", said that it was the "Best. Show. Ever. Seriously, I've never gotten more wrapped up in a show I wasn't making, and maybe even more than those [...] These guys know what they're doing on a level that intimidates me. It's the Harry Potter of shows."
So there you go. GO WATCH!!! And Libbs, I am going to watch season 3 too, even though you said it wasn't very good, because of Logan. Logan and Weevil are my fave characters and as long as they are in there, then I am watching and swooning. Lol Current Mood: amused
|
03:13 am Ok, I am on season 2 and all I have to say is that she needs to brake up with the guy she is with now and go back to the other one!!! NOW! ep. 2 if you were wondering... Current Mood: determined

July 31st, 2008
11:36 pm Is it way too hopeful of me to have Veronica and Logan end up together? Or at least Weevil and Logan? And yes, Libbs, this IS me asking for spoilers!
In other news, I am selling my car tomorrow. I had 3 ppl contact me today about buying it and one of them has the money cash and we are doing the "exchange" tomorrow. It is being sold for $3000 so it is not THAT bad. Or, really, it is not bad at all. Only problem is it means I have to get up at 7am so we can go and get my brother's car fixed and then I have to go to work.
My mom got an mp3 player for $40 and it's really nice and she got me a 2gig flash drive for like $7. YAY and it is pretty fast too!
TJ came to my job today which made me very happy. I kept making happy noises. Lol She got a haircut, which is short and very cute, and she dyed her hair black. She is going to Meca Con this weekend, which i am very jealous of, and she is going to cosplay L from Death Note *squeel* She was also going to do Kuja, which she has been talking about for the last 2 years, but apparently the girl she commissioned to do her costume is still not done even though it was commissioned specifically for this con. She is happy, looks healthier, and cute as ever. I have invited her to come with us to the new Mummy movie but I don't think she will come. She has $40 and that is exactly how much her con ticket will cost. She is going to be brooooooke! Ooooh, also, she made Howl's necklace. She makes jewelry and is REALLY good.
