Every now and then I fall head over heels in love with a CD. And oh, how I love my brand new Neko Case CD. I think I must have listened to it ten times all the way through since I got it on Sunday. (The subject line comes from one of my favorite songs on it, Star Witness. Really, though, the whole song is wonderful. Just thinking about it tempts me ( Read more... )

Amier and I are no longer dating. I'm trying to follow his example, somehow, and be as mature about this as possible, so no long entries on it. I just want people to know so I won't have to explain it at school. It was a very kind break-up. No drama.
Sorry for spamming your friends lists.

As I suppose everyone knows by now, a week ago exactly I returned safely from St. Augustine with my nii-san. (You can shoot me for that before he does. I've recently discovered that I can do an excellent, if I do say so myself, obnoxious/perky lolibait harem anime girl impression. [I'd rather not contemplate what the implications of that may be, by ( Read more... )

This Monday I began volunteering at a summer school class for kids going into 1st or 2nd grade (some of them are high-functioning autistic, some are SLD, some just need a little help). It's a cute overload EVERY DAY since, which really makes up for the fact that I'm now waking up at 7 (4 hours earlier than the time I had been previously). They call ( Read more... )

Ack! I was going to update right when I got on, but I procrastinated and now I only have a few minutes until the clock strikes twelve and my coach turns into a pumpkin, and I am once again left in rags have to go to bed! So, a super quick bones only update ( Read more... )

Ack! I'm so jealous. Tiffany sent me a link to Webboy's (Philip? Not sure what I'm supposed to call him, since I don't really know him or any of those cosmopolitan upperclassmen he consorts with) posts about his trip to Japan. It's so amazing! They actually wear those uniforms! And have those beautiful gardens! And temples! And oh god, piles and ( Read more... )

I have survived for 15 years, "Gloria" is on the radio, and all is right with the world.

(Err, sorry for spamming all of ya'lls' f-lists. I just felt I should record this moment.)

I am officially no longer a freshman. It's a little anti-climatic, actually. It's like I'm little again and expecting that I'll transcend to a shiny new level of existence the second I turn another year older. Of course, birthdays (or graduations) are only full of revelations in books that include glossaries of characters with names like " ( Read more... )

Overall, this was a very very very (etc.) stressful week, but right now I'm doing better. I feel very empty right now, but in a good way- probably what you could describe as peaceful. No confusion, no doubts, nothing. It's lovely. I've had a hum of unhappiness in the background of my mind all week, and the chances are that (if you're bothering to ( Read more... )

Ah, Beta Chi banquet. Proof that, given the chance, IB kids, the pride and FCAT-booster of Seminole High school are, in fact, HORRIBLE HORRIBLE sluts. And the food wasn't nearly as awful as I was expecting! (Of course, Mrs. Meahl gave us the impression that it was just short of toxic waste, so uh.) And they gave us glowsticks! And the seniors made ( Read more... )
