Eh. *shrug* Good enough I guess.

Another dream. I need to post something more interesting on here someday, haha. Maybe I’ll make this dream into a story and post it in sections.

( Read more... )
And that’s where my dream stopped. I’m speshul. C:

A weird dream I had like..yesterday.

( Read more... )
And then, before more stuff happened, I woke up.

Like many of my dreams, I think this could end up being a pretty cool story. I'm just nervy about Twilight syndrome, haha.

I have decided to rename my livejournal, because mostly all I do anymore is come here to rant... or to post memes. Thus, the Angry Dome is born.

I'll...er... try and rant more often, then, shall I?

And get a Farnsworth icon. Just to perfect everything.

WHADDA WASTE OF TIME.

If there is one person or more on your friends list who makes your world a better place just because they exist and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

I hate getting sappy, but, I loves you guys. You know who you are.

Oh hey, another meme.

( Wasting time )

I was voluntarily 'tagged' in this meme by rihatsu62, yaaay!

"Reply to this meme by yelling "words!" and I will give you five words that remind me of you. Post them in your LJ and explain what they mean to you..."


Zombies
Oh, zombies... what can I say about zombies? They interest me on so many levels. XD The part of me that loves post-apocalyptic settings loves zombies for the 'what the fuck are you gonna do, it's zombies' aspect. I mean, they're dead, they just keep coming - how would you possibly deal? And that, at least when I was younger, scared the crap out of me; the concept of something ever-living (un-living), something unstoppable, something that couldn't be bargained with or fought against, an endless horde focused on completely and utterly destroying you. But there's more than one side to zombies, at least to me. This is where my author brain pops in and says "hello!" with a jaunty little wave, because every time I think about zombie movies I consider what if's. What if there was a middle stage to the infection, a partial immunity where you didn't die but you still kept your brain? What if the consumption of human flesh leads traditional undead zombies to become more humanlike? What would happen if it wasn't just humans who could be zombified, what if it was every living creature? (We'd be screwed, by the way. Just think about it! Zombie rats? Zombie cats? Dogs, horses, mountain lions?)

Well, if I wanted to put it in short, zombies are kind of a muse for me, just because you can change them into so many different things. Plus, y'know, if you're prepared for zombies, you're prepared for pretty much everything.

Team Fortress 2
Oh, Team Fortress 2... how you combine my love for shooters with humor, pretty designs and hilarious characters! Oh, how your miscellaneous fighting styles are so different and yet somehow maintain at least a modicum of balance! To be the Spy, slinking through the base, darting from shadow to shadow only to be illuminated by the Pyro's mad gouts of flame moments before you sap that sentry! Oh, to be the Scout, and to run straight into a level three sentry and explode into millions of pieces! Oh, to be a Soldier or a Demo and jump on a crit-mine or a crit-rocket! Or, how to be the Medic, a poor casualty to the Spy's sneaky, sneaky ways! To be the Heavy, slower than a retarded turtle, with the shiniest, baldest head for a Sniper to see! To be Engie, and suffer endless hours of boredom protecting the intelligence or the control point! Or to be the Sniper, standing above them all and dying to that bastardy other Sniper who's just a fraction of a second faster than you!

*looks back up at what was written* ... I am such a nerd. XD

Nny
Because someone needs to paint that goddamn wall.

Nny, which I don't really read anymore, was at least once important to me - back when I was trying hard to be the gothy little girl I wanted to be. XD It was deliciously blasphemous, it went where comics probably shouldn't, and it was adorable and sad at the same time it was hilarious and disgusting. It, like many comedians of the world, taught me that nothing is sacred and everything's up for laughs, even the grimmest, nastiest things you could think of. 'Cause if you can't surround it with humor and fantasy, the packing peanuts of the soul, the world might be a little too painful to stand.

Eh, I'm rambling, aren't I? In the end, Nny has head-esplodey. That's all you really need to know. XD

Lemons
WELL THIS WILL BE FUN HUH GUYS. 8D

For those of you who don't know, go read this before giving me really, really weird looks when you read the rest of this.

Gnrf. What can I say about lemons? They're just plain fun. Maybe it's because I have an extra dirty mind, but I tend to plot out lemon scenes in my head when I'm bored. This is part of why one of my potential career moves contains becoming a porno writer/director and bringing fancy modern-day movie shooting technology to the world of pornography. As opposed to shaky hand-cam-and-hotel-room pornos, which are just... blegh. Bo-ring. A dime a dozen. Now, my fascination with sexuality vs. relationships is an entirely different matter, which I will probably only expound upon if someone begs me to.

Anyway, it's just another part of writing fiction, and the bottom line is, I enjoy it, haha XD;;;.

Fine art
So, I've been drawing pretty much since I was able to hold a crayon. I wouldn't necessarily call it fine art, but even back in the day I liked making collages. (What that really means is, as a little kid I didn't know how to draw birds, so I just drew a background and stuck a stamp with a bird on it on the paper instead.) Honestly, I don't know if my interest in the arts is even focused solely on the fine arts. I don't think I could ever have the patience to work on something as long as, say, Michelangelo or Da Vinci. However, I do like drawing, and I do like creating, even if it's not something necessarily realistic... something I've been fighting with a lot, because I don't like modern art so much. I'm just not 'enlightened' enough to appreciate a small blue square next to a large orange square. But... maybe something just off the wall is what's right for me. Maybe something kind of like William Kentridge - weird, surrealistic dream-sequence type animations or creations.

Hurk. I got off track. What I wanted to say was that when I was a kid, I liked Disney animation, and coloring books from Disney movies, and for a while back in the day I wanted to be a comic artist or an animator or something like that. The problem with that is that I'm really no good at drawing stuff consistently. I'll still work towards drawing consistent characters, because I do really love comics, but maybe weird surrealistic Mirrormask-style/Kentridge-style art is for me. Take from that what you will.

Today I went to the museum of modern art. It was fun. Saw a show about William Kentridge, who, despite being kind of a modern artist, has some crazy awesome surreal-ey movies and such. Wish I could have looked at some of his movies longer, haha.

So, having recently rewatched a good bit of Avatar: The Last Airbender, I have found that I have a huge idolcrush on Iroh. Want to be more like a kickass old tea-drinking man, plz. Speaking of that, I shall make me some tea now...

A'yup. School is back in session, which means I am a sad panda re; that. I'm not so great with schooling stuff. Ah well, I'll get better, I guess... that or move on to something bigger and better. :D Hey, I can hope, yeah?

Anywhoodless, off to make some calming jasmine tea. :D

Okay, TF2 mania hit me again. Which is frustrating, because short of bursting into TF2chan and being like 'LOVE ME FOR MY IDEAS' (which won't work because it's a chan) I have very few people to fangirl over it with. ._.

I am considering trying my hand at the dreaded, terrible, horrifying Female Team Fortress Team. All the original ideas have been used up, as have all of the bad ones, so what harm could I do? I'd just make a mediocre Team Fortress girls team, hurr.

It's that or pull out my NaNovel based loosely on TF2. Which I should do anyway actually.

In other news, Monday is back-to-school day. I am not looking forward to it. I'm so sick of one of my classes; it's stealing my life. No fair. D: All I ever do is write papers and read more books and think about Jungian principles and write that paper all over again. This class has affected my social life in the same way that Antarctica affects a man's nether regions, pardon my horrible, horrible gift for brain bleaching images.

Very depressing, as I love all my other classes.


Oh, and re: the icon I'm using currently - this comic is the best ever ever. I love all of the characters. Really, they're all awesome.

Okay, I'm out. Have to go to sleep so I can wake up and stare the rest of my vacation away. *lazy maggot-laden pile of lard*

*Warning, semi-disturbing pictures*

I ACCIDENTALLY A WHOLE FIR TREE.

I'm taking this with a freaking salt lick. I just. I don't even. What.

I completely forgot to link to my Fallout 3 oneshot on ghoulification a couple days ago. Before you go running off to find it (hahaha I'm flattering myself ._. ) I have to warn you, ghoulification is for people who... well... are fond of ghouls. SO if you've ever played Fallout and did not appreciate ghouls for all their awesomeness, you miiight want to steer clear.

IF you're a bit of a zombie freak me like me, head on over, because ghouls are the fracking bomb.


Anyways my fic isn't about anything dirty about anything sexual PWP. It's just an awkward moment fic, I promise.

Head over here if you're at all curious.

That daily journal thing? Hahaha, it's not happening as often as I'd like. XD

Oh well.

Today, I will post a sandwich that is surprisingly delicious, considering I just threw it together from the random crap we had around the house.

Bread (I prefer white, you can prefer whatever you like)
Hummus
Cheddar cheese
Lettuce
Balsamic vinegar
Thin coating of mayo

This, together, is a strangely delicious combination. Nummy nummy.

Crapspackle.

I forgot to post yesterday, haha... Well, it wasn't like I had an amazing day anyhow. Yesterday all I did was sit around and watch three movies and convince someone else to buy me... well, stuff I wouldn't normally own. I'll leave your imaginations to play with that, though I can guarantee it's not as dirty as the majority of you think, haha.

So, short review time for the movies I watched:

Men With Brooms:

It's a cute movie about curling, which in and of itself lends it some credibility as a sports-team-thrown-apart-by-whatever-comes-back-to-win-in-a-tournament-for-whatever-sport-they-do movie. Plus, well, it has Paul Gross. Paul Gross is a funny man.

HOWEVER, Men With Brooms still follows the formula of reunited-sports-team pretty closely. It's not really that original, but it's entertaining. Honestly, though, if you want something with a little more depth to it, try Slings and Arrows - it's a Canadian TV show, also starring Paul Gross in a startlingly similar role as The Man Who Ran Away, and it has a ghost. A ghost.

...Yeah okay, no more plugging Slings and Arrows, review time.

Dark City:

Here's the dealio. I have never seen this movie before. Both my boyfriend and my roommate had and said it was an awesome movie. This was a bad idea. I have an irrational aversion to anything that has been hyped too much. Plus, I don't really like mindfuck movies, which is what Dark City appeared to be in the very very beginning.

But, watching it, I had to admit the plot was pretty cool. And I came to understand why my roommate liked the movie so much, because my roommate has a gigantic boner for Paul Gross, and the main character looked a lot like Paul Gross. But what bothered me about the movie was the constant viewpoint changes, cutaways for no real reason, filmed to give you no sense of scale or space. You never really got to be in the world, which I prefer to be able to do. Plus... and here's a *SPOILER* for those of you who might want to watch the movie later on... the bad guys seemed to disagree a lot, for a hivemind. Plus by the end of the movie they had made an individual, which, wasn't that what they were trying to do in the first place? And just because John Murdoch, Mr. Main Character, got the ability to change stuff, does that mean he understands what side effects he has when he does? Now that he's in charge, what happens? Will he just laze his days away at Shell Beach?

*END SPOILER*

I mean I liked the idea behind it, I appreciated the 'twist ending' although it wasn't particularly a twist by that point, and it was kind of cool, but... I didn't think it was as good as it was hyped to be, honestly. Enjoyable, but not amazing, imo.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang:

Now this movie I might be a little bit too partial to. I love this thing. It takes elements of film noir and classic mystery movies and twists them around with a dash of real world and a tablespoon of black comedy. It's a narrated movie; however the narrator is small-time New York thief Harry Lockheart, played by Robert Downey Jr. It's just.. I don't really want to give any of it away, but it's simultaneously adorable, hilarious and dark.

...Yeah, I like this movie. It's kind of like an American Snatch, in some ways.

I should just stop reviewing now, though, haha.

I'll rectify my lack of a post from yesterday by posting something else meaningless here later today.

Today was Easter. Otherwise known as Zombie Jesus Day.

I learned two things today; 1) I am not good at vaulting over fences, and 2) I am not doing my push ups deep enough. So now my knees hurt (vaulting over fences) and my arms are shaky (deeper push ups).

Hooray. XD

Also, I made this egg in a fit of TF2 fangirling; it's not as good as it could be, but it's hard to draw on an egg with a wax crayon. *excuses excuses*




The egg? Yeah, it's a spy. Well, was a spy, until I cracked him doing push ups (he was in my bra - long story). Then I ate him. Wow, that sounds dirty.


So I don't have a topic of the day, unless "It's zombie jesus day!" counts as a topic, haha.

Anyone have any suggestions for what I should talk about tomorrow?

Basically what it says up there, haha.

Three Watchmen icons, one Fallout 3 and one TF2.

Dog carcass in alley...

... yeah okay I'm joking.

The first of my daily posts! We'll see how long I can keep that up, haha.

Well, despite the fact that it is my spring vacation, I am feeling greatly depressed. Mostly because I have no one to spend it with save my roommates who I already spend all my time with. Basically it's just a week where I get to do nothing. Oh well.


Today's topic of choice; survivalism.

I like it.

Well, I like the idea behind it, really. Self-sufficiency is something I would love to have, and being a little bit of a survivalist would only help in my quest for improved self-sufficiency. Plus I enjoy the idea of being prepared, so putting together a survivalist bag, Bug Out Bag or BOB, whatever, that idea makes me a bit of a happy camper.

Unfortunately I haven't done much in striving towards self-sufficiency apart from paying lipservice. So, I am going to plan a BOB and hopefully, eventually, be able to grab it and go in case bad things happen. It's like being a bigger version of a boy scout - BE PREPARED! :D

Things On The List:
Water
MREs/trailmix/energy bars
Money
Flashlight (need to look into the best kinds)
Ibuprofen
First Aid stuff
Pads (... what? They're good for stopping bleeding!)


I'm trying to decide what else I could use. Any ideas? Anyone?

You know how I said I was going to post more? Well look at that, two posts in a day! Whoo-ee!

Tagged by my darling rihatsu62.
Once you’ve been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 16 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 16 people to be tagged. If I tagged you, it’s because I want to know more about you.

1. I did in fact put the lime in the coconut. (don’t ask, haha)

2. I’ve cried blood before.

3. Since moving, basically all I want to eat is some form of Asian food. I just cycle through, from Japanese to Chinese to Thai. Wait, does Indian count as Asian as well? Subcontinent, right? I’m also really fond of Mediterranean too.

4. I really appreciate guns. I wished I owned one. No, more than one. I want to learn to shoot well.

5. I love driving, I really do. Here’s the problem; it’s the other people on the street that bother me. I don’t trust them to drive safely, haha.

6. Sometimes I’m a bit concerned that I’m perpetually high off of life. I seem to get along with stoners super-well and describe things… differently. Possibly might have a teeny bit of synesthesia?

7. I really really really really want to learn parkour. The ease with which traceurs move fills me with envy.

8. I’m kind of a pussy when it comes to backing up my theories and ideas. Maybe I think I’m too fallible? I dunno.

9. I honestly don’t know what I’m going to do with my life, and that concerns me a bit. I have no driving force and I can’t imagine ever getting one. Sometimes I feel like I’m missing out.

10. I am deeply, intensely afraid of going insane. In great part I think it’s because I’m afraid of losing control or losing touch with the world, because even though I was raised Christian (followed by agnostic, followed by atheist) I can’t bring myself to believe in a world beyond this one, so I want to experience it for all it’s worth.

11. Paradoxically, but also in great part because I WANT to experience the world for as long as possible, I’m afraid of doing risky things and hurting myself.

12. I have finished a grand total of two stories, out of the hundreds I have come up with. I think it was two, anyways. It might have just been one.

13. I also have a chronic inability to take anything too seriously – which could be why I don’t have a driving force behind my actions, haha. Also, because of this, it’s kind of disorienting for me to see people who get upset over other people not agreeing with them. I mean seriously.

14. Lately I have been having the inexplicable urge to go out and party. Unfortunately I do not live with party people. Nor are my partying-type friends around right now.

15. I want to do more stuff with regards to large bodies of water – swimming, boating, skiing, whatever. When I was a little kid I loved going to the pool. When I hit puberty I started hating my body for its pudge and decided I wasn’t going to swim again. Now, I want to go swimming but I still hate my body. Le sigh.

16. I’ve been out of the country a grand total of three times. England, which I miss, Canada, which was cold, and the Bahamas, which was so cool. I love islands. I have also been to Puerto Rico and Hawaii, but those are still sort of part of the US of A so they barely count. ._.

Well that was a lot of boring!
I taaag… brittyhead, lulie, l1berty, witch_of_the_si, shadowspinner, tanarill, and anyone else who sees this. BWAHAHA, YOU SAW IT.

I've realized that LJ has ended up kind of being my check-up-on-people website, haha. I don't really post anymore.

I think I'll try and post something every day, just for the hell of it. 'Cause, y'know, trying to be a writer I might as well have warmups, yeah?

Also, general updating-ness. I have a Watchmen fanfiction in the works - it has an OC, I'm warning you - and it's posted on FF.net. Here's the link right hurr. If you read, please to leave a comment - even if it's to say 'this sucks and you suck for writing it'. I like those comments, they make me feel like improving, haha.

I also got a Facebook, and I have updated my deviantart found here.

Someday I'll be more active on teh intarwebs, I promise. <3

I doodle. On my notes, on my hands, whatever. Most often it ends up being eyes or naked people... Hey, don't laugh, I'm practicing anatomy! >.>
