*SCREAMS*

We're watching The Iron Giant and oh my god ohmygodohmygodohmygod I want to be Hogarth and I want an Iron Giant IWANTONEIWANTONEIWANTONEIWANTONE I LOVE HIM.

...

I've never seen this before now.

:D

Uh, dude, I'm pretty sure that if you're looking to River Tam or ANYONE from Batman for your strong, stable role model, you're...doing it wrong. What the hell.


I feel like this article misses the point of, oh everything, about as absolutely as I have ever seen. Fail.

Leave me a comment saying "Resistance is Futile" and I will respond by asking you five questions that satisfy my curiosity. Update your journal with the answers to the questions, including this in the post.

Questions from galenhiril

1) Who do you enjoy RPing the most?
Sam (Winchester), Simon (Tam), and Iruka.
Like..Sam and Simon are my most HI, ME muses right now, but..I really think that these three are pretty representative of my favorites to play overall. Remus would probably be pretty up there, and I'm sure there are others (well, there are obviously others that I like playing a lot, but I'm sure there are others that would make it onto a 'Top ___' list, too. I just am not thinking well right now.) I've grown very away from playing super submissive characters, which used to be kind-of a staple for me.
Oh, and I love playing boys better than girls. Almost always. And I don't know if that's just because I tend to attach to male characters more frequently than female ones, but...I also just think I like playing boys better.
And I like characters that are somewhat...fussy or less than comfortable on some level?
Which you never ever guessed looking at my list, you sure didn't.
And, I really enjoy playing these characters' flaws. Like, Sam is/can be prissy and stubborn and..sees what he wants to see, and Simon is/can be prissy and arrogant and...spoiled, kind-of, and Iruka overreacts and excessively worries and can be kind-of...prissy. I play prissy males. The end.
(Aziraphale, Remus, and Giles don't exactly combat this.)
(It has actually been sort-of a goal in my rping of late to pick out my characters' flaws and make sure I'm representing them adequately. I know I need work. but I feel like it's a good goal to have.)

...I also feel like this answer kind-of went way, waaaay a and b the c of d.


2) If you could insert yourself into ONE fandom for... lets say a day or two... which one would it be?
Oh, man. For just a day or two? What wouldn't I jump into? Ummm...FUCK I JUST WROTE OUT A WHOLE LIST BEFORE REALIZING THAT THIS QUESTION SPECIFICALLY CALLS FOR ONLY ONE.

Okay.

I need to think about this.

I think I have it narrowed down to Firefly, The Matrix, or Stardust. The worlds are not all always the nicest, but they are fascinating and I think I could handle it for one or two days.

If it came down to me honestly having to choose...I think I would go Firefly. But I'm not 100% on that yet.

(I want to say Supernatural, I really really want to, but let's face it, if you're only around for a day or two in SPN it's because you got eaten/possessed/maimed/tortured/mindfucked/killed by the monster of the week. Which is something I aim to avoid in my life, typically. If I got a guarantee that that wouldn't be the case, then...we'll see. It's very possible.)


3) Do you always see yourself living in the greater Denver area, or are there other places you want to live... or think about living?
I don't know that I'll always live here, like...never leaving, but I do believe that even if I went somewhere else for a period of my life, I'd always cycle back here. I love Denver, a lot. I love Colorado. I'm a pretty big fan.

I would like to live somewhere a lot wetter, and possibly somewhere more towards the east coast. I don't know. There are a lot of places I'd consider and I lot I'd like to explore.


4) Your favourite song right now. What is it? Right now? Right this second? The song I'd be most psyched to hear, like, as I type this? Can I Tell You, by Kansas.


5) What sort of crazy things did you want to be as a child? Astronaut? Brain surgeon? Lion tamer?
Oh Lord.
Okay:
Teacher
Marine biologist
Fill-in-the-blank role from any given historical period I was interested in. There were a bunch.
Captive princess
Elf warrior

I feel as though this list really doesn't actually need to go on further than this. So, done.

I think I've got my schedule pretty much sorted for next semester. I'm waitlisted on one class, but...fingers crossed; everything will turn out alright.

I also declared Linguistics as my double major (my...other one, the one I started as, is Studio Arts.) And, I am really really really excited about this.

I need to get off my ass and learn me some Japanese more outside of class, but besides that, I feel...really on top of shit, school-wise. I mean, there's stuff to do, but I've begun it, well ahead of time. Which is really kind-of awesome.

...Well, I say that, and I'm totally ditching the one class that's meeting on Friday. Oops.

But I am very very excited about it! And about watching the new Supernatural episode at Sarah's! And..this weekend is going to be awesome. If cut short at the end by me having to come back to school and art, intensely. (But, you know, that's sort-of why I'm starting it tomorrow. Shhh.)

And I think I'm getting sick. Which is lame. But besides that...things are good ♥

OH AND SYD: I think I'm gonna be in Brighton on Saturday, so I can give you our charger then!

HAVE SOME.

( It's said, every mushroom cloud, has a silver lining. )

I feel that this statement might be a touch fucked up, but seriously, this is incredible:



It's a scar from where he was hit by lightning. Also, it's seriously absolutely amazing. Holy crap.

Guys, guys!

I have a phone again.

So shoot me your phone numbers, and e-mail addresses, and..whatever other information you think it's important for me to have in my phone.

Comments are screened.

♥

Happy Guy Fawkes Day, everyone!

I SUCK AT THIS GAME.

And by this game, right now, I mean life.

*pulls hair out*

So, my phone is gone. Probably to the bus. I realized I didn't have it like...half an hour ago, and unless I dropped it somewhere I was walking on campus and someone kindly turns it it, it's a total no-go.

Since I don't have a lot of faith in that happening, I'm just going to try to get it replaced ASAP. I'll need everyone's numbers again.

FUCK.

...Needless to say, I won't be contactable by phone until further notice.

Oh, yeah, if anyone wanted to see picture of The Graveyard Book party we went to, there are a couple. :D

So, I've been trying to post for like...2 days, and have not managed to. A half-typed post sat here for about that long until I kind-of stopped caring about posting it.

Which is super lame.

I have pictures of me and Ter and Syd from the concert on Tuesday and pictures of the ridiculous amounts of snow that I will post...tomorrow.
Promise.

I have not figured out where exactly my relationship with snow stands yet. But I think that I do not want. At least not like this, not anymore.

And yeah, I totally bailed on my one class today. I woke up and was like...fuck that.

I don't really know what the point of this post is.

NOT THAT I HAVE A CLUE WHAT WE'RE DOING ANYMORE, BUT I AM EXCITED TO SEE EVERYONE THIS WEEKEND FOR HALLOWEEN. ♥

SYD CALL ME IF I DON'T CALL YOU; I NEED TO CALL AND ONLY HAVE ONLY REMEMBERED IT AT THE MOST INCONVENIENT TIMES. LIKE 1:16 AM.

I'm posting a lot. I'm at that stupid antsy period where it's like...forty minutes until I need to go do what I'm going to do (study with my test partner for the Japanese oral exam tomorrow), and my time killing method (doing laundry) fell through spectacularly, so I'm just like...wasting time, because it's not really long enough to do much, but it's too long to just sit.

Damn it, I have to do laundry later.

I'm really wide awake! And energetic! Which is kind-of awesome, because I got very not a lot of sleep last night.

And I just figured out that the weird vague noise I haven't been able to place and I've been wondering if I was imagining is in fact my iTunes that was supposed to be off playing through my headphones (which I...am not wearing.) ...What the hell. Okay.

I want my rp people o be around to play with me D:

And and germany2germany, this was the icon I was trying to show you that wouldn't send:

I've been going through my icons and clearing some out to do a pretty intense overhaul of the ones I've got.

It's weird to get so used to knowing that you have certain ones, that you don't want to get rid of them, even when you know you don't use them.

Also, it's really hard not to fill up every new slot with a Supernatural icon.

DON'T JUDGE ME.

Does anyone else feel like it's weird how much icons matter?

Or am I alone on that one? ('Cause, they...do.)

Quick quick post before I get back to homework; because I actually want to get to bed by a decent hour (like...1:00 a.m., as opposed to...3:00 a.m.) tonight.

And because I haven't posted in like 2 weeks.

Supernatural is like cocaine on screen.

Philosophy is dumb. Yeah, maybe some of these guys have a point, but...since none of them seem to account for things happening on a case-by-case basis, at all...I don't care. It doesn't always apply. I don't care what your rule is: it never always applies.

I've been in a super weird mood. Like...not anti-social, not exactly, but like...selectively social. Like I was saying to galenhiril, I'm pretty much only interested in interaction right now if I hands-down love you and you're not pressuring me to do..anything. God, I've been lethargic. It's awful. All all all I have had any interest in doing is watching Supernatural and rping and cuddling/chatting/talking on the phone with my people. (Which, like..not that those things are bad, not at all, it's just like...harmful levels of ONLY wanting to do those things.)
Oh, and make in-character playlists and listen to those a lot.
Don't judge.

And I want to know how I did on my art history midterm!!

And I need to make a list because I know I have about 8734879457894587 things I'm supposed to do tomorrow/this week, and right now...only a few are coming to mind.

And~ um...huh. That may be it. Hopefully I will be a little more present this week, but this week will be busy, too (Rob Thomas concert, Japanese test--in two parts over two days, kidlets from Family Housing trick-or-treating in our dorm on Thursday, and then Halloween~)
Now don't get me wrong, this holiday/part of the year is my absolute absolute favorite, but I will also be thrilled for it to be done; so things chill out some.

♥ all.

*SCREAMS*

OMG OMG OMG OMG.

SNOW PATROL.

We got there super super early and ended up being able to sneak into the radio station's meet-and-greet/private preview thing; and got pictures signed,
And we had like...a concert-long moment with the pretty, pretty bassist we were right in front of and he threw his pick to us,
And, oh, my god, I think I had more fun than Franz Ferdinand and they were amazing, it was incredible, and, and, and,
:D :D :D

Probably double-posting tonight, because I think I have vaguely more relevant things to post than this.

However.

I was looking for a picture of Nathan Fillion for an example of someone with a (possibly?) once-broken nose. And while skimming through Photobucket, I came to the conclusion that ( Nathan Fillion is fuckin' ridiculous. )

( But awesome )

( Really Awesome )

( And when the hell does he play a priest?! )

(  And...that's straight :3 <3 )

*inhales intensely*

So Tattered Cover posted the schedule for the first half of October.
The Graveyard Book party isn't listed. Which I guess means it's happening after the 16th. If it happens.

THEY HAVE TO I WILL BE SO UPSET IF THEY DON'T.

That's all.

Oh, man. Sometimes I am reminded that, when I can get past the fact that me being awake in the morning pretty much guarantees that I didn't get enough sleep the night before, I actually really love being awake and moving in the morning.

I definitely did not get enough sleep last night. But I have been awake and moving since about 8:15. Which sort-of sucked, but I did sleep through the second half of my bus trip.

It feels like fall today! I think it's been the first day that has. Like I was wearing a hoodie and jeans and I wasn't cold except on the bus, which was weirdly freezing balls, dude. but there was a bite in the air.
I do not like being cold, but this excites me. I do like fall :D

There's a sweet oldies/classic rock jam session going on somewhere outside my dorm. I have no idea why--I think it might be something pre-football game. I am not one for football, but if it brings me this I won't complain too much.

I stayed the night with penguinfaery and wastedbytime last night, and we did pretty much nothing productive but watched more Firefly and fluffed :3 It was a very good night. A lot.

And I have a bunch of randomly awesome new music to listen to!

And family is visiting..well, actually about any time now.
And I think it is one day shy of a month until the Snow Patrol concert!
OH OH, and the Constantine player at a_trialbyfire where I'm apping Chas commented and was all happy that I was apping him. Which as I was pretty sure about 0.014 people on Earth actually cared, was exciting to me.
And this is a very rambly post without a concise point, but I had a very nice yesterday and today has been very peaceful and calm and I just feel happy ♥

Ter, I wanna say this just looks really relevant to your interests and you should check it out.


Same goes to any other alien buffs on my f-list.



Also, it looks like it has the potential to be scary as fuck.
And was really way too intense for second thing in the morning. (My first class was canceled, so I, of course, went straight back to my room and hopped on cracked.com. Which linked to this.)
