Hard to please
May. 13th, 2003 12:00 amEh, things can be going my way for a while, but when ONE bad thing happens, even if it's my own damn fault, it just ruins everything else. *sigh* You know, I klutzed out more than I said earlier. In Econ class, I'd brought a can of Cherry Coke which I'd opened before class started. But when I held it between my legs (to avoid Gilmore seeing it) the can squished and I got Coke all over myself (in the worst possible place... thank god said pants were black!) and the chair-- twice! And I nearly knocked the can over too.
And the barbed wire from the fence? Not just tore a hole in my pants, tore a hole in ME! So today was my day (and hopefully not the herald of an entire WEEK) of klutziness-- thankyou, I feel like a complete ditz. Maybe I'm being jinxed or cursed or hexed or something.
*cough* Ahem, so anyway, I got home feeling pretty lousy and went straight to bed-- I didn't wake up until around 8:15pm tonight, and now... well, here I am. I was working on designing the Mayfest poster for Anime Club, and I am finally pleased with the result (but for Will's sake, I'll just LJ-cut it... *wink wink*):
( doodles, drawings, and duels! )
=D So I'm pretty proud of myself on that end. There's still so much to do though-- like writing out all the rules for the duels, setting up one of those elimination charts (Microsoft Works, here I come!) and praying to god that people actually participate! I think I'll be praying and chanting to the Goddesses all this week, hoping it won't be windy on Friday. Or you know what, I think I'll just check the weekly forecast. GAAAAAAAAAH! CLOUDY!!!!! High at 59 degrees!!! NOOOOO!!! *breathe breathe* Okay, all will be well. IT HAS TO BE! Besides, meteorologists are never right!
Right?
*swallow* You know what also sucks? When you're mad at someone, or they're mad at you, and you keep seeing them or seeing reminders of them... and you're just completely haunted. Like you can't get them out of your head, and you end up remembering all the stuff you did together, and then, of course, all the BAD stuff you did or said... and how it all ended and how terrible you feel. I seriously need to just have some cheer up time. I think I'll make myself a chocolate milk now, even if the milk is Berkeley Farms, which tastes funny.
( MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE! )
Ah, that's better. Hm, even though I checked my email during 4th period today (I slept during 6th... and during 5th too-- Thompson actually LET me sleep after I finished my Macbeth test... and what's more, she didn't threaten to fail me today! *scoffs* Like she actually COULD anyway... I'm one of the three best students in the class, Eva being another, and the other probably being... I dunno, one of those bookworm guys) and now it's 92% full, even with my trash emptied. But that's because I'm subscribed to Simply Irresistable... o_O There's a new girl writing for it, and her name's Amber, 15, from CA. o_O... Has to be someone else. Has to be.
*sniffles* I miss Amber. I want to get together and have a grrl party. If only I knew more Grrls.
Ah, working harder on the now-named GoldenFlora edition of Souten: The Azure Sky. If I hadn't put so much effort into it already, I'd change the image from Usagi (Sailormoon) to Full Moon (Full Moon o Sagashite). Oh well, I guess I can just do a similar layout for my FMoS page, once I get it up. Sadly, that's not a priority, what with all the other pages I need to tweak, fix, and otherwise GET UP! I wish I had every HTML editor and image editor, and some Harry Potter wand to make them all work automatically. *sigh* Life's not that easy.
Marjorie still wants me to help her with a spell for thus guy that she insists likes her, and knows that she likes him, but she hasn't actually gone up to him, face to face, and ask him out. Don't get me wrong, I know what it's like to be shy, but one of the tenets of Wiccanism is to not cast a spell a) if it would change someone's free will or b) if you haven't excercised EVERY OTHER POSSIBILITY available to you. And in a case such as this, where you're directly using someone's body (well, hair or nail) to screw around with their head... it's pretty powerful, tabooish magic, and I don't really want to help her.
I find it hard to believe that I'm not really that much of a Wicca (despite that previous test result-- haha!) and people already want to use me. Or make fun of me. Or condemn me. Whatever.
OH OH OH... new favorite site... http://www.wishonastar.net/gallery. EVERYTHING! Layouts, avatars, blinkies, freebies... I am, as Grace would say A HAPPY PANDA! *cough*
I don't know what it is that I do, but I seem to have a penchant for accidentally hitting a combination of keys on the left side of my keyboard (Caps Lock, Shift, Ctrl, Tab) and some letter, and then the LJ client I'm usign (Semagic) goes cuckoo and decides to type different letters than what I press. For example, when I press H, it comes out as D. -.-; Does anyone have any idea what I just did, and how to fix it (aside from continually saving my drafts, exiting, and restarting?)
Gah, and why is it that every time I need to install something, and I think I have the disc I need, it's NEVER the one I need? Please, I beg you, please someone burn me a copy of XP Professional, because I don't know if Koski will give me his. He already let me borrow Office 2000 Pro for the umpteenth this time (and this time I'm going to copy all the contents to my hard drive) and it DOESN'T want it, like it originally did! GAAH! >_< *try, try, try*
You know, I've been listening to Fushigi Yuugi and Yu-Gi-Oh songs nearly nonstop for about 3 hours now... it does get repetitive, but I really like the FY songs... and one of them in particular, Hotohori's "Legacy" from the Vocal Music Collection... I think it would really make a killer ballet. I mean a song to dance to. And this is weird coming from me, since a) I quit ballet a LOOOONG time ago and b) as a rule, I'm a klutz and suck at dance. But this is something I've actually been considering for some time now (even before I saw "Save the Last Dance") ... maybe I should rejoin ballet or something, perhaps in college. Who knows, if I take my MRI tomorrow, then we'll know if I'll ever even be able to dance.
>_< Damn, trash night. Time flies when you're multitasking and/or frustrated. Be right back...
Alright, back. You can't recycle styrofoam (like you get when you buy a computer or something) can you? Bah, my landlords are senile.
Okay, the following is completed:
-Beta version of 'GoldenFlora' for Souten
-Poster for Anime Club Mayfest (pending club approval)
-Raffle ticket purchase for Mayfest
Now, the following must be done:
-Organize prizes for raffle
-Purchase prizes for duelist tournament
-Print out Life Point and Winner charts for use in tournament
-Make copies of Mayfest poster on nice paper, distribute around school and at anime club
-Beat the hell out of Gina for not showing up to Anime Club AGAIN with X-2, as she keeps promising
-Organize supplies for anime-style drawings at Mayfest
-Purchase table-setup supplies (4' bamboo poles, white tablecloth, red cloth, white cardstock) for Mayfest and set up
Gah, I better get started. The highlights of my day thus far:
-Talking to Lonnie (even though I was half-asleep when he called, and I probably sounded high)
-IMing Mike (even though he's drunk right now, but he says he misses me all the same, which is sweet of him. MUSH!)
Yay.
Ah, okay, I'm too lazy to start a new entry, and there are some more things:
BookDivas.com - I'm finally getting into it, and it looks like it'll be fun. I'm not sure about the paying for the books or whatever, but it looks like it's a cross between a private GRRL book club and the 1000journals project, because they have these DivaDiaries that you can exchange with your thoughts on the book. Which sounds really fun, if I can figure everything out.
Gah, it's so late (early)! And I need to take a shower... *wanders off*
