I've been pretty busy with school lately. However, I've got a few nice pieces of drawing which I'll be putting up on deviantart as soon as they get down from the exhibit and I can get proper photos of them.

Well, the class I am doing this for is over, so pretty much now this journal is just sitting around being useless. I'm bored... whatever... I was thinking about writing some fanfics in here. I like to write Draco/Harry slash, I might also do some stuff for my friend Rachel. I have an account on Fanfiction.net, but it only has two fanfics from over three years ago, and they're a bit pitiful. The truth of the matter is, I can't bear to put up my good writing on the internet, because it's the dearest thing I have. I've spent the last 10 years fostering my writing skills, honing them to their current level and I can't let the product of that be wasted on the internet where anything you post is liable to be stolen. Therefore, whatever I do post is my bored musings or doodles. I wish I could really put myself into that, but I make a living off this stuff, and I can't give it out for free, understand?

Blah.....
So yeah, here's what's coming up:

-story of how Snape didn't really die in TDH. Written, of course, for Rachel!
-numerous DxH slash exerts... mostly just scenes of them being cute to each other, or snogging or whatever those two get up to.
-babbeling about things that are on my mind

Or possibly nothing.
This could just be a one-time thing that I just as soon forget, but we'll see. I'd like to do something with it, but we'll just have to see.

Dignitas—Human Dignity

I think Human Dignity is the right humans have to have self-respect, and to get respect from others. A person has human dignity, which means they should not have to do humiliating things or be treated in any dehumanizing way.

Right now I'm in dignitas, which is my last class of the day. I'm not looking forward to this paper. I can't wait for break. Today I made it to Intro to Lit on time. Yay! Last weekend I went to UMD and watched Star Wars with the Johns. It was pretty fun. Allen showed up part way through and that was cool.

social networking

2006-10-17T16:42:46Z

I use the internet for social networking in these ways:
facebook
aim
email
I have never met someone on those things that I didn't already know in real life. However, I have a friend named Issa who I met at a Lord of the Rings convention and we hung out all day and exchanged email addresses. Then we talked to each other pretty regularly for two years. Then, after so much time, we met up again two years later and had a Lord of the Rings marathon of all the extended editions.

my weekend

2006-10-03T17:40:59Z

This weekend I went back down to the cities with Angela on thursday after Intro to Lit. We didn't get there untill later because we left in the evening. I'd been hoping to see my friend Kelli at the swim meet that night, but I found out from my sisters she wasn't there anyway. Angela brought me to Joshua's house, but his parents weren't there, they were next door. Jenny picked me up from there and brought me home. Jenny and Julie were so excited to see me! We had a lot of fun untill mom got home and started telling us to shut up.

The next day, I went with Dad to mass at the Basilica of St. Mary, then we went to JJs to eat. After that, I took a nap, and then went to the BSM homecoming football game. Julie really wanted me to go because she had an A part in the pep band. Joshua came home too, and surprised his family. He also went to the football game with me, and we saw Jesus (not Jesus christ.. just a friend from high school) and Nick Qualheim, Ann Martin, Betsy VanCleve, Elise Hannsberry, Matt Hoff, Ms. Green, Ian Deneen, and a couple other friends. We also saw our old "buddies:" Giraffe Boy and Whore Girl. It was great talking to Ms. Green again. After the game, Kevin was supposed to pick up Ian, but he said he was tired, and Josh volunteered to drive Ian home so we could see visit Kevin longer. So me, Jesus, Joshua, and Kevin went to the Deneen house and hung out with Kevin for a couple hours. It was amazing. I miss Kevin so much, and I could tell he missed us too. I got a hug from him when I left, and Kevin doesn't normally hug.

The next day was BSM hoimecoming dance. Julie got asked by a BOY!!! *ooohh!!* A big reason for me coming home this weekend was to tease her about it. Anyway, most of the day was uneventful. I helped Julie get ready, like painting her nails and stuff, and she was beautiful! Her date was cute too...he had an adorable smile. Despite his towering 6'4'' stature, he reminded me of a little kid. Awww.... Also, that night, in celebration of getting free of BSM, Joshua took me out to eat, then we went to Target and Best Buy. After that, we went to Kevin's house again. We watched Dane Cook and talked, untill it was time to go.

Sunday we went to church, then my family took me out to eat, I took a nap, and went over to see Joshua's family. From there, Angela, Ryan, me, and Joshua all got in the car and went home. We talked the whole way up and it didn't seem very long.

1. Vampy url: http://vampy.livejournal.com/
2. Vamy is from the uk and her profile is interesting because he/she is going to Japan and posts about her trip. (in a month, 2 weeks) She makes jewlry, and talks a lot about clothes, including pictures, which look really cute, and I'm saving the pics so I can try making them when I go home.
3.
I'm full of cake. I know - tsk tsk - dieting and cake aren't the greatest mix. But it tasted so good ;_; No more cake now. Not for a long time..like..Christmas (o_o); I should really start using the excercise bike again before we go to Japan..to aid the attempts of looking less Fatty McFat. Quasimodo looks a lot more attractive than I do [and have done for a very long time] right now.
quote 2:

There are some real wackos out there.

The first one I encountered in my working day was an old man that was well dressed, but stunk of booze. He was no harm to anyone but lordy x__X He asked for some streaky bacon..so as per company policy, I escorted him to the bacon. He was so greatful that he said I was gorgeous and planted an old drunk persons kiss on my cheek.

The second weirdo of the day was a guy I was serving. It was getting pretty quiet so there was no line behind him. He asked if I was goth, which quiet frankly, is the most annoying question ever. I shrugged and he asked what music I liked, so I told him and he said he likes Japanese stuff too. Apparently a fan of Japanese wrestling.

Once a customer came he just kinda..hung around..smiling at me and then walked away once he noticed the person I was serving was staring at him like a freak lol XD

Bloody people ¬_¬ Always..bothering me..

1. Group: The Dark Side of Jrock: http://community.livejournal.com/darksideofjrock/

2. This is a group for people who make jrock costumes. The community is just getting started, but it is a place for costume-makers to share their pictures, interests, ideas, patterns, and stuff. The person who made it will also be adding fun stuff like quizzes and crafts to do.
3. Alright! Kumoricon came, and we have...a few pictures, thanks to Skyler, and I also have...for all you instrumentalists, the sheet music for the piano piece 'Regret' by Camui Gackt. Real treat.
And, another quote:
Alright! As kumoricon comes closer and closer, we're learning more and more about costumes, patterns, how to sew all of that. We're slowly...VERY slowly, adding more members to this community. I figured, since we're just starting out, what could I do to make this thing a little more interesting?

Throw in some secksy pictures of J-rockers, of course! So from now on, We're going to have a character vote from random Jrockers pulled out of a hat!

We're going to list them, and a very small clip of an image we deem interesting. The one with the most votes gets posted, along with a made icon of that picture. Sound like a fun idea? Let me know.

Currently, my mother is out of a job, so the commissioning and plushes will come along...a bit later than planned, but by January everything should be running smoothly, and this Community will probably have a website to go along with it.

1.Blog: Forky: url: http://forky.livejournal.com/
2.this guy’s blog isn’t whiney like most of the other ones I’ve seen. It’s just a lot of interesting random stuff he thinks of, and I like it because I’d much rather read funny comments like the ones below (#3) than read about some emo rant on how much life sucks.
3.

A long, long time ago I posted about seeing an old dude wearing rainbow suspenders shopping for potatoes. It was really exciting, if you remember. TODAY HE REAPPEARED! His return was so exciting that I was rendered even more speechless than usual and could not get the nerve to say anything to him about his awesome. (But he really needs to be informed!) Back and even more improved; he was wearing them with plaid. Lumberjack plaid. MY NEW FASHION IDOL. FUCK THOSE OLSEN TWINS, they got nothing on this man!

Other quote:
I quit drinking soda because it always falls out of my mouth and onto my keyboard and the keys go on strike and me equal not a happy fucker. Except for the part where using scissors to pop the keys off is disastrously fun.* Maybe it was for health reasons but then again do I really want to live until 30, the way things are going now? Death by boredom may not be a metaphor. Or death by this fake sugar shit they put in flavored water. (Will stick by the statement "water tastes scratchy.")
* = Now all the keys are screaming to be switched out to the letter z. Every last one. Or eliminate the vowels and put numbers in their place. Mmm trick keyboard. That'll teach you to try and use my frankencomputer.
I have to train a 40something dude in the salad bar who is really glad he moved here (Bumfuck, Kentucky) from south Florida because he wanted to see "white people."
Bored and restless (leaving a few adjectives out, although I imagine you can figure them out on your own.) are funny jokes, planet.
Cricket licked the computer screen. Ya'llz been LICKED.
Hmm.
