'I could buy a trained shark.' '... what?'

Jan 08, 2010 22:14

So! It's the end of the semester. A nice feeling, all things considered. Projects wrapped up, exams taken, stuff like that... it's all over. Nothing big. I'm glad that the stress is gone, and I look forward to sleeping in tomorrow. Enough to kind of lick the mini-cold that's been threatening to overwhelm me... but I do want to get into GameStop and buy Bayonetta. Totally blow all this month's allowance on it, but I expect it to be worth it. [jUBBLIES~]

Everybody hung out at Berlin's after school today. We spent our time watching a story about a pile of dog poo, chatting with one of Berlin's friends online, watching AMV's, random metal videos, and then eventually settling down to watch Queer As Folk.
I had a really great time, and I'm glad I went, but as I left for home I felt like I was going to puke. I don't know if it's the letdown from having all that stress on me and it's suddenly gone, or maybe it's the lingering physical effects of that stress, or maybe it's because I've been eating poorly / not enough since my teeth decided to fight with the insides of my mouth...
I'm kind of bummed out about stuff, though. I feel like Anduru, our group's resident gay, is way more likely to get a boyfriend than I am to find, well, anybody. I think it's from watching Queer As Folk where every other character and then some are gay. And there's, like, one lesbian couple who are married and fight a lot. Oh hurrah.
I don't know. There are only two girls, right now, who I would say yes to going out with, unconditionally. One of them's straight, and the other is straight and living in another country. [And is going to a doctor to see if her heart's about to give up because of a possible valve defect or malfunction. Yeah. I'm ready to start punching holes in walls and terrorizing medical interns that I don't even know.] And the odds of me going out with any boy I know now are very, very slim.
Ugh.
It's confusing and lonely and I feel very drab and... blegh. I need more sleep and less stress, so I can clamber back up on my horse and keep goin'. I mean, I'm subsisting on internet memes and oral anesthetic. [Chewed mouth up in sleep at the beginning of the week. Painful as all hell.]

Oh, also: my iPod appears to be dead, with no chance of revival. It suddenly quit on me yesterday for no reason, when I actually needed it to try a different version of my math project. So, if the one I submitted today doesn't work, I'm pretty much fucked.
Nothing is working to revive the iPod, anyway. I've let it sit all day. The menu button is so worn out that it doesn't really work anymore, unless you freaking smash it down, so resetting it up until now has been a huge pain in the ass. Now it won't even think about resetting. I'm pretty sure that the warranty isn't any good... I got mine in 2008, before December, if I recall correctly. And it's not like I can find the box, even though I know I saved it...
Ugh.
This is another thing really bumming me out. If I pooled my money, I might be able to get a replacement for it sometime soon. But then I wouldn't be able to get Bayonetta. Or the Vitamin String Quartet CDs I found for cheap on Amazon that I really wanted. Or, you know, anything.
My only hope-- my only hope, Luke Skywalker-- is that my parents will think, "well, she's taken good care of it up until now... and it's the start of a new year... and she did a really good job on the SAT... sooooo... well... maaaaybe... we should... get her a new one?"
Foamy's parents bought her one the same day she left hers in her pants' pocket and it was found completely trashed in the washing machine, I've had mine for going on two years now and never bitched about any of it's problems
I'd feel bad, asking my parents to buy me an iPod after the SLR and with all the stupid "end of high school" expenses coming up like a class ring and graduation shit and a yearbook...
But life without an iPod? D': I know it can be done-- Dylan doesn't have one, he gets along okay, and I did for a long time between the Nano and my poor little Shuffle, but now... ugh, I know more about taking care of iPods, I use it for a lot of stuff, and it's not like our internet is fast enough to support internet radio...

BLARGH.

Why can't things be simple?! D< If I had a job, I could just save up. But no. There are no jobs to be had, anywhere. This sucks. This whole situations SUCKS. Maybe I'll just go live in Jamaica and become a roadside attraction as the only person in that country to not be smoking pot.

[Don't listen to me, F-list. You go and have a glorious day, you hear me?! Ignore my bitching, it'll stop eventually, one way or another.]

Also: not for the first time, considering going Friend's Only, except for maybe whatever random fanfiction / art I decide to post up here. Like a loser. Do I even write anymore? I'm so uncool.
Anyway, F-O: yay or nay?

school, interwebz, bayonetta, money, girls are stupid, stress, ipod, sad, blargh
