Fun times... We do memes for the lols
Alright, well... Work is still providing me with less hours than I like. I'm going to see how well, if at all, I might be able to make this work, but I'm likely going to be doing that whole job search thing again soon. >< I really hate that.
Ukon is just around the corner it feels like. And while I feel like I'm a complete failure and have nothing to offer/display, the interest that people have shown in my chain mail jewelry is quite reassuring. That, at least, should give me a decent product. But I need to order new rings... which hopefully I'll be able to do this weekend. I just need to make sure this paycheck for Friday is going to be enough that I can still do that while also being able to pay rent for the month of February. (It really should be, I'm just doing the whole 'better safe than sorry' thing)
I have today and tomorrow off, so I'm pretty pleased with that. Can't wait for Mike's game tonight. *happy dance* Lavanya is so deliciously creepy. I almost can't wait for the other characters in game to figure out some of her secrets so that I don't have to be so secretive about it. XD Ah well.
My schedule for the week is actually pretty simple...
Monday & Tuesday: OFF
Wed, Thurs, Fri: 1:30p-10p
Saturday: OFF
It's gonna be kinda sucky, but it's simple enough and I got the two days of my games off. Now I just need to talk to her about whether getting Thursday evenings off would be at all possible, because then I could start up my game too.
Anyway, I decided to go for some meme-age today as well.
Grab the nearest book. Open the book to page 123. Find the fifth sentence. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions. Don’t you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.
“I believe this is yours.” He turned it in his hand, examining it. “The blade's good.”
.... -_- That was rather boring, wasn't it? Ah well. It's from a fantasy novel called “A Woman Worth Ten Coppers” by Morgan Howell.
Post a note with the title 25 Things. In it list 25 random things about yourself. Tag other people to do the same.
1. I don't think I'm any good at anything that I've ever done. (don't hit me, okay?) Every now and then, I managed to have some pride in something that I did, but usually I just feel like I'm never going to get anywhere.
2. One of my new music favorites is an A Capella Heavy Metal band from Germany called Van Canto. (They do have a drum set they use, but only because when they try to do the appropriate drums for their style of music, they can't talk for the rest of the day.)
3. I love to sing. I mean -love- to sing... but got so used to people making fun of me or telling me that my voice sucked that I don't like to sing in front of other people anymore.
4. I love to dance as well, but I don't feel I'm any good at it. I get embarrassed if people ask me to dance around other people.
5. I long for nothing more than to have a real, burning passion for something...
6. I'm not sure that I've ever had one... If I did, it was for writing and/or art, and I lost it somewhere along the way.
7. Sometimes... I just really want to paint. I wonder what would have come of actually letting myself on these occasions.
8. There are monsters under my bed at night. Once I turn the lights off, I have to jump into the bed from a distance so that they won't grab my ankles.
9. If I don't sleep with my feet covered and/or wearing socks, than they'll eat my toes.
10. I think I can actually doodle now. I used to not be able to put pen to paper without a definite plan for a finished piece.
11. More than anything... I just want to make other people happy.
12. That's why I write. Because I love to read. I don't care about 'making it big' or getting money for it... I just want them to have another story to love.
13. I don't think I'm as intelligent as other people do. I feel that it's because I'm more escapist than them and read for purely entertainment reasons.
14. In certain ways, I have a very shallow mind.
15. I listen to music so that I can't hear the things going on around me. This is especially important when I'm alone because if I hear ambient noise I think something is trying to get at me.
16. When I'm at work, I swear in my thoughts a lot. Usually in frustration either at customers I'm trying to help or because there's been another drink left sitting on a shelf.
17. I role play because I'd rather be someone else other than myself.
18. I miss being in school so much it hurts some times... I miss the environment and being around people who have passions for the things that I enjoy doing. It made me able to feel like I had the same kind of passion.
19. I've barely drawn anything of note since my graduation. Though, what I have done that's any good makes me happy.
20. I want to sing right now, but I'm afraid of waking Bobby.
21. I never wanted to kill myself, but I used to intentionally harm myself. Sometimes, I still get the urge.
22. When I told my best friend about it in high school, she tried to strangle me.
23. I have some things laying around that I should scan and upload to DeviantArt.
24. I really miss my friends who have moved away. On days when I've felt especially alone, I cry myself to sleep and wish they were here.
25. For some reason... I feel like I have failed this meme.
This is a bit different from the music meme I recall going around... I think... I seem to recall that one being to pick your favorite line(s) instead of the first one.
Also, keep in mind that I'm not at -my- computer, so I'm dealing with far less than I would normally have so far as music selection...
Step 1: Put your music player on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Bold out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
1. Copacetic, calm my frenetic, she's the shit y'all. Highly-rated, well-educated, she's an angel.
2. I never had a friend like you, this is the day.
3. Hey baby, are you listening? I've batten all the hatches down.
4. Kann man Herzen brechen? können Herzen sprechen? kann man Herzen quälen? kann man Herzen stehlen?
5. Risin' up, back on the street. Did my time, took my chances.
6. I'm loosing sight. Don't count on me. I chase the sun. It chases me.
7. I can not take this anymore. Saying everything I said before.
8. From the top to the bottom. Bottom to top I stop.
9. Perfect by nature, icons of self indulgence.
10. You said you wanted to see PARIS. So I took you to the movie, "Bon Amie" or something French like that.
11. You toss in a word, I'm your villain. I see the passion emerge,
12. Hey Mr. Seeker, Hold on to this advice. If you can seek then you will find.
13. It's my turn to fly. I'm proving ground to night.
14. Playground school bell rings again. Rainclouds come to play again.
15. Never made it as a wise man. Couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing.
16. Today I'll be spinning on a Wheel. I'm a slave to a Wheel. And there isn't any stopping
17. I walk a lonely road. The only one that I have ever known.
18. It's been awhile, since I could hold my head up high. And it's been a while, since I first saw you.
19. Ich hab ihr einen Kuss gestohlen. Sie wollte sich ihn wiederholen.
20. I can see... When you stay low nothing happens. Does it feel right ?
21. Say the talk and I won't mind. There's a cause you know I'll never try
22. Tell me just what you want me to be. One kiss and boom you're the only one for me.
23. Lost in a dream Nothing is what it seems Searching my head For the words that you said
24. We better think about the things we say. We better think about the games we play.
25. And the road becomes my pride. I am stripped of all but pride.
26. I'm a little boy with glasses, the one they call the geek. A little girl who never smiles, 'cause I've got braces on my teeth.
27. Here's to the finest crew in Starfleet! Engage.
28. I've been kicking ass, since the dawn of time. I'm just a killing man that's reached my killing prime.
29. I’m the trouble starter, punkin’ instigator. I’m the fear addicted, danger illustrated.
30. So you're with her. Not with me. I hope she's sweet. And so pretty.
That is all. *bows*
