Y'know, I was wandering around LiveJournal today, and I found something that just hit me so hard, so deep, that I had to post it in here. (I'm not citing the author so to keep him safe from being made excessive fun of...)

"One night a guy and a girl were driving home from the movies. The boy sensed there was something wrong because of the painful ( Read more... )

Today was Field Day at my high school. For those of you who don't know, basically this is an excuse to make the entire student body wear corny costumes and facepaint, stuff them all into the gym, and let them scream at each other and run around in Organized Activities that scratch the border of Mass Anarchy. It should also be known that, ( Read more... )

I feel the need to keep y'all posted, so here's the quick-fire summation of past problems I've posted ( Read more... )

I'll cut to the chase and say that Chicago was uber-cool. I got to see an exhibit by that Gunter von Haagen (sp?) (He's the guy who takes the dead people, cuts them open all artistic-like, then poses and plasticizes them for the public's viewing pleasure. Slightly gross.

It's like Risk but without the dice, only set in Europe, and with room for treaties and war strategies and alliances - ie a little closer to something slightly resembling Bismarckian world politics.) I am Britain, and yes I will take over the world. I have to laugh at the poor ( Read more... )

I SURVIVED AP LANG TESTING! I'm not allowed to talk about it, or else AP chupacabras will kill me with red-hot tweezers, but you may all know that I am as of yet alive. And I actually had fun, at least on the essays, in my own twisted little way. Writing crazy answers to entertain the test graders. Hehe. Now I just have to keep breathing... ( Read more... )
