Woah It's Been Forever

Which is sucky. Ah well.


Hmm...in the last, what is it, week? Month? Whatevs, anyways, in the time that has past, I've gotten accepted to the college I very muchly want to go to (yay!), I got a haircut (very scary at first, but it worked out well), watched Paranormal Activity (just scary in general), and started watching 30 Rock (which I am doing right now).

So, as you can see, lots of big steps in my personal and professional life (okay, even I don't know what that's supposed to mean, but hey, I'm sleep deprived).


I also just remembered I'm going to attempt to make ratatouille for my French class food day on Halloween. That should be interesting, seeing as how I'm not exactly a gourmet chef or anything. I'll keep you posted, though.

And..I guess that's about it. One of these days, I'm going to have to actually think of something interesting and lengthy to say. 


Someday, perhaps.

It's Been A While...

It's been a long time since I said anything...some things have happened, I suppose.


The Homecoming game/dance weren't too bad...they were actually quite fun, to be honest. And the college I visited turned out to be epic and it's the one I'm definitely going to go to, so I'm feeling a lot better about that.


I've cleaned a lot today, but that's good, cos that means I'll have more money. I'm going shopping with my friends tomorrow, mostly to TJ Maxx and Barnes and Noble. I'm excited.


For now I've got Mountain Dew and Doctor Who (look at that, I made a rhyme), so I'm all set. And that's pretty much all I feel like writing at the moment, which is kind of pathetic. Ah well. 


Bonne nuit!

Power Outages Are No Fun

Apparently, something on our street caught fire (not a house or anything) and caused the power to go out for an unspecified length of time. Awesome. That's just swell.


So it's pitch black in my house, my computer's nearly dead, and I'm gonna miss Grey's Anatomy. I am not a happy camper.


So, I'm going to watch Doctor Who until my computer's battery calls it quits, then probably end up going to bed, cause the lantern I commandeered isn't quite strong enough to read by or anything useful.




But anyways, I thought I'd take this opportunity to blog a bit before I do that. Tomorrow's the Homecoming football game. Yay. I'm going with some friends (mostly to support the marching band, as most of my friends, and my boyfriend are in it), but the weather's supposed to be really nasty and cold, so...not yay.


Then Saturday is the dance, of course. Yippee. I have so very much enthusiasm. But that morning I'm going to visit a prospective college, so that's good fun.


And today we had a big senior meeting about caps and gowns and class mottos and senior shirts. It's crazy to think that we're doing all this stuff. For as long as I can remember, it's just been information that we were not privy to, nor did we really care about. Only the first part's changed, to be honest. Well, no, that's not quite true, at least not for all of us. But still.


So, yeah...that's my news and stuff. I'm gonna go enjoy the last 33% of my computer's battery life. Yep.

AGH!

Why must everything be so difficult, all the time?


I needed to order an eBook for my online college class. I haven't done it yet, due to a mixture of laziness and insufficient funds. So, I finally got around to doing it, maybe a half hour ago...I got it ordered just fine and whatnot, they sent me both a confirmation email and one with steps on how to get to the book I just bought. I click on the link, it asks me for the password, I type in what they told me to in the email...and I get an error message that says something is wrong with my account, and I need to contact customer service for further assistance. So, I try a few more times, do various things, nothing works. 


So I go on the customer service website and after maybe ten minutes, FINALLY manage to fill out the form and get it submitted. They sent me an email back saying they'd look into it and let me know.


I'm so frustrated right now! I'm already kind of behind, because technically I should have bought this book about 3 weeks ago. And I was hoping to maybe start doing some stuff this weekend, so I wouldn't feel so guilty about it.


But apparently the universe had other plans for me. Bleh.


So, I guess I'll just go do some more laundry and wait for the boyfriend to get here so we can watch The King's Speech and season one of Sherlock. And hopefully eat snacks, because, like usual, I am hungry. I think the anger makes me want to eat...how odd. 

Knitting and Doctor Who: It's Good for the Soul

I feel guilty that all I seem to do is watch Doctor Who...


Well, kind of guilty...I mean, it's not like I have any other things to do. I mean, sure I could clean my room, or get started on my mountain of laundry I'll be conquering tomorrow, but for right now, I'd rather just sit back, relax, and enjoy some timey-wimey goodness. 


Because I've had a busy(ish) week, and I deserve it. Or something.


Today in my fifth hour, I ended up teaching half the class to knit. Yep. Because in Fiber Arts, we're carving our own knitting needles (weirdly therapeutic) then knitting scarves with them. Seeing as how I have half a scarf already, and everyone else is still tying themselves up in knots trying to figure out how to cast on stitches, I got delegated the task of helping them all learn it. Turns out, I'm not a very good teacher. Good thing I wasn't really considering that for a career option.


Going along those same lines, that reminds me, there are some incredibly unintelligent people in my French class, and it seriously makes me angry on the inside. I'm going to leave it at that, really, but...agh! Apparently it infuriates me that not everyone is as smart as me...and yes, I do realize how pretentious that sounded...I did that on purpose.


But today after school, I went to Wal-Mart (yay Wal-Mart!) and got brownie mix, Swedish Fish, manicotti, chicken fried rice, giant knitting needles, and some blue yarn. Moral of the story: don't go shopping when you're hungry. But anyways, I'm in the process of knitting myself a blanket. It's about 4 inches long so far...cos 100 stitches kinda takes a really long time to get through. And I didn't really think about it until later when I got home, but the big, soft, fuzzy yarn I got is definitely TARDIS blue. Makes me happy, in the nerdiest way possible. And you know? I don't even care. 


So, I'm gonna finish up here and go to sleep, because I'm very, very sleepy.


Bonne nuit!

My New Project?

I've spent much of my day looking at weheartit.com for Doctor Who pictures...I don't really want to talk about it, alright? Let's just leave it in the past...


But anyways, I came across something that I want very, very much, and as I'm fairly sure the one in the picture is hand-made, I guess that's how I'm gonna have to come across my own as well. 


Maybe it'll give me something to do...however, most likely it'll just end badly. Ah well.

Yep. I hardcore want this in my life. Minus the stupid political button (though I'll have to add my I heart London one).


Also, I've noticed that, since starting this blog, most of my posts have been about Doctor Who. This makes me feel sad, and awesome, all at the same time.


That is all.

Week 2 Done

Today, upon arriving to my French class, having actually prepared for the quiz that was scheduled for today, we were informed that our teacher had, sometime in the last 24 hours,  quit. Lovely. And then we were all gonna change to Latin. I was actually quite excited.


And then in fifth hour, they tell us, nope, we found a new French teacher. Haha. GRRRRRR. 


On top of that, we had fire drills in every single hour today...that wasn't very fun.


On the good side of things, in a couple weeks it's our 'spirit week' for Homecoming, and Tuesday was dubbed "Sci-Fi Day" (as if the people who made it that have any idea what sci-fi is, or have ever actually watched it). Anyways, me and two of my friends are going as the Doctor's companions. I'm to be Amy (of course), my friend Lauren is going to be Rose, and my other friend Sam is going as Donna (because no one likes Martha!). I'm actually quite excited for this, even though I previously trashed the theme. Okay, well, it's still a stupid theme, but I'm geeked for any chance to dress like Amy Pond (rereading that sentence gave me the strong urge to go out and get a life. Whatever that is).


So, yeah...that's about all the interesting things I have to say. So, I'm gonna go play Facebook Sims, and then watch Doctor Who til the wee hours of the morning (or like, ten, when I fall asleep).
