What the hell. I swear I just wasted two hours of my life reading Heart of Darkness, and I have no idea what I just read. I think there was a mention of ivory. I'm pretty sure I've got the ending down, but as for everything before that? I'm at a loss.

Somebody please explain it to me while I go peruse SparkNotes.

Alright, so, aside from my little ( Read more... )

I knew I shouldn't have done it. I should have just used a new page, but who's impatient? I am, of course! And now I've got four pages of shiny fanfic tidbits (meaning, somewhere near twenty chunks of unrelated snippits that I didn't have proper stories for but nonetheless I was really quite happy with) neatly deleted from my flash drive and ( Read more... )

...Goddamn spyware that pretends to be an anti-virus but isn't that randomly pops up at midnight when I really should be getting some sleep but can't because I've gotta purge the goddamn spyware that I can't tell my mom about because she got pissed and took the computer away the last time this happened and it took her all day with Pablo's help to ( Read more... )

Yeah, this is another petty school-related rant. But it really needs to be said.

( If I have to deal with one more day of this... )

Dammit, it's been 10 hours and I've even taken a shower, and my hand still reeks of lotion.

Minds out of the gutter.

See, I was going from the art room to the fieldhouse via the Hallway of Doom at the end of lunch today, and the big blue door that leads to the Underground Hallway of Gym Lockers was absolutely slathered in coconut hand lotion. ( Read more... )

Fucking...alright, so somebody called me about five minutes into my Spanish exam, and I'd forgotten to silence my cell. I always have it on vibrate, so it didn't make very much noise, but it was still buzzing against my thigh in a really distracting manner. And I really wouldn't have had that much of an issue with it, except the person left a ( Read more... )

We watched a movie about the Depression in history today.
You know what some people did?

Laughed.

They laughed at these people who were going through complete shit, doing all they could to provide for their families when there was barely enough food to go around in some places. Do they think that this doesn't affect them? Do they realize that we' ( Read more... )

Uuuugh, I realized sometime around 2 AM this morning that my eye was freaky-bloodshot for some reason I really don't know about >[ So I'm back in my glasses, and reintroducing myself to the wonder of eyedrops. Why, hello there eyedrops, how I've missed you.

So after F&T I saw this book that Greta was reading, called Watersmeet. At least, that's how it was spelled on the cover, and we spent a few minutes puzzling out whether it was supposed to be just one word, Waters Meet, or Water Smeet. Yeah.

I asked her what it was about, and she said, "Well, there's these centaurs who bite the toes off of people ( Read more... )

Alright, so I know I haven't updated in a while. There's a reason for that, actually. See, my problems have just been compounded. Besides being in a place with horrible internet access, with a computer that has a habit of overheating, without a cooling pad, I got another thing thrown at me. So, two nights ago I was in the staff room, helping Rachel ( Read more... )
