Today I pulled a shard of glass out of my foot. It had been there for almost three weeks. Hmm, I wonder what else is in there...
*~anyway~* , the birthday party went well. We had a picnic at Rancho San Antonio, met more people at home, went to buy boozes and lounged about until the party dissolved. I'm not sure if I'm going to have another party, since this one ended up being a lot bigger than I'd originally planned, and having another party might seem kinda pompous. Maybe I'll just organize another get-together.

Someday I will have a real camera again.
Apart from all that, I'm completely remodeling my bedroom for the first time in 10 years. It's going well, but I've got so much crap to sort through. If I'm an over-achiever in any category, it's consumption. D:

How I feel today
Nov. 14th, 2007 05:44 pmExcerpt from my archaeology notes:
Ugh. So very tired.
The feudal system! Money money money
Byzantine did lots of stuff
Dripping gold! Precious jewels! Delicious cake!
Merchants act as depositories?
Oh god why I’m so tired, my eyes hurt a lot I want to fall asleep in Buddha’s lap he’s fat, fat thighs
Looted mercenaries or something
The Renaissance happened
Religious knights – templars
Someone filled a void
Avoid the Noid!
Italian bankers were whores
Jack and the beanstalk? Doesn’t know beans about venture capitalism! Amaaaaaaazing
Ugh. So very tired.

Oct. 30th, 2007 08:11 pmOh my god
I was washing some pumpkin stuff down the drain and suddenly THE WHOLE FUCKING HOUSE STARTED SHAKING
I thought I'd broken the house or something
I'm proud that I ran to the nearest doorway and braced myself without thinking about it, since I wasn't near a table. I'm a well-trained California girl.
It wasn't THAT big, but I'm still shaking a bit.
Edit:
Oh wow, it was a 5.6. The epicenter was near Alum Rock. Jeez.

The cooling fan done broked, and in order to get it fixed under the warranty they have to do a full diagnostic test first. And JUST when I get my new webcam.
Mmmmmmmwell, if they keep it any longer I'll get a loaner.
I was freaking out when I had to check it in, though. I felt like I was signing away my baby.
Exciting news[!]: I got a tattoo last week, and I fell asleep in front of the California State Supreme Court. More on these adventures in the near future.

Jul. 26th, 2007 12:30 amI feel much better now. I don't really have much time to feel bad though, seeing as how COMIC-CON COMIC-CON COMIC-CON is tomorrow. And then maybe I'll stop yelling about it every entry...until next year.
Here's some stupid:
A few weeks ago, my friends Jean, Erin and I were bored.
Jean suggested that the role of Kingsley Shacklebolt would have been better interpreted by Samuel Jackson in the latest HP movie, and eventually we started to come up with a long list of who we would cast if we made a different version of Harry Potter, with a few contributions from The Dani.
Don't bother asking what the really weird ones are, because they're probably just meant to be that retarded.
A lot of them are probably misspelled too. I don't have time to fix these things!
( We spent way too much time thinking about this )

Erin went to my Asian Art History class with me last week, and something occurred in our boredom. I stole her camera afterward and took pictures of it.

May. 2nd, 2007 02:19 pmWow, I have been asstasticly busy for the past few week. I finally passed the worst part of the schoolwork, though, and the semester is almost over. Jesus, it goes so fast when you're not paying attention. I think I bombed one of my classes, but the rest will probably be okay.
Okay. So. Catching up.
...I can't think of anything to say. I'm in the library right now, waiting to meet with one of my teachers to talk about declaring a minor. I'm gonna have to start declaring EVERYTHING soon. I don't see why I shouldn't be able to just shout my choice of major while standing on top of the student union and have that count, but alas, they force me to run around and do "paperwork". University fatcats!
I am making all the sense.
I have some interesting plans for summer. I will mention more later, when I really start to put them in motion. AND COMIC-CON WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP
In terms of fun personal stuff, I plan to draw a lot this summer. I can taste the improvement to come if I just keeping practicing....and it is entirely delicious.
I also have things to post. That will happen at some point.
Post 6 very random facts about yourself, then you tag 6 people on your friend list to do the same:
1) First that comes to mind, as it affects me all the time, is my strange taste aversions. I have very picky tastes in food which, combined with being a vegetarian, narrows my options quite a bit. It's ridiculous sometimes, but I really can't help it. My strangest aversion is the combination of fruit and bread-like foods. I cannot physically handle the taste of any pie, cookie, cake or other bakery items that have fruit in them. I just can't do it. When I try, I start to gag and feel sick. Same rule applies to chocolate and fruit. As far as I know, I've always been this way. D:
2) My mom and dad first met at a punk rock concert in San Francisco. My dad's band was playing.
3) When I was little, I used to make up songs and sing them to the ocean.
4) I once created my own religion.
5) One time in preschool I held a boa constrictor around my neck. :D
6) My family has its own psychiatrist. What I mean by that is: when I was young and my OCD started to surface, I went to the same psychiatrist who treated both my mother (for bipolar disorder in her teenage years) and my uncle (for depression when he was in college). Isn't that sweet.

Post Christmas
Dec. 29th, 2006 01:41 amChristmas was more or less good times. I didn't exactly tell my grandparents what I wanted, so I got more gift cards than I have before, but that's all groovy. I got many cool things from my friends, cause they are awesome like that. The past couple of days have been spent watching the fourth season of Scrubs, goofing off and fearing the wind.
A few days ago, a couple of my friends came to my mom's house to visit. The occurrences therein consisted of: figuring out how to drive my mom's car at night in the rain, fast food adventures, realizing that the emergency brake had suddenly decided to work and then stop again, hawt pr0nz, tamales, wasting time with Super Smash Brothers, blowing eggs, crazy sleep speak, uncomfortable sleep positions which resulted in little to no actual sleep, sitting on tea, drowning in clothes, waiting for Dustin to go to his friend's house to get the keys to his own house, gay dogs who hit their head on chairs, being invaded by an army of ants, watching mah gays kill said ants, major redecorating, sleeping next to a snake, listening to music through a tiger's head, going out to dinner with other friends and making fools out of the world, and the spilling of FOUR beverages over the course of that 24 hour period (by me. Yes, I know).
I also talked to someone today (who I'd met a few times before), and found out that I may have more immediately in common with this person than anyone I've ever met, which is awesome.
Oh, and my grades don't suck too much! Yay!

Sep. 14th, 2006 01:20 amI just scanned a bunch of sketches, and if I can avoid doing real work I'll be coloring one in the next few days.
I went mini-golfing today, and magic happened. I think I may have special powers......???? Special GOLF powers. Best kind.

Isn't it strange - the many ways in which depression can manifest itself. It's been so long since I've been genuinely depressed that I don't really know how to handle it. Life is odd, eh? I know I should really see a psychiatrist or something, but my mood's been changing so often that whenever I get that urge, it's gone within a few minutes. Talk about self-destructive.
I just hope I can restrain myself from doing anything horrible, you know? It's felt like I've been on the verge of a breakdown for weeks.
Oh well, I'm sure I'll think of something.
I enjoy the smell of berries.

Jan. 1st, 2006 10:30 pmThere are psycho-demons in my mom's house that always make me sick when I stay over. And I'm going to be here a week. Shiiiiiiit.
This morning I played Bust-a-Move and Phoenix Wright back-to-back for hours. Not good for mental health.
When I finally stopped, I kept thinking that I was being timed in real life and that if I didn't collect enough evidence in time the ceiling was going to fall on top of me.
I vomited in the sink an hour ago.
Happy New Year.

NEW HAIR TIME
Dec. 21st, 2005 08:45 amHEY EVERYBODY.
On Monday my hair was bleached (due to the collaborative efforts of
Erin and
Dani) and then dyed with pretty awesome results. Though, because I dyed it myself, I ended up with the top half of my body being virtually slathered in dye due to my recklessness and impatience. Erin says that the green on the back of my neck makes me look like The Hulk. Anyways, I present you with my festive, red and green hairs:


Choking on a toothpick.
Top layer is red; bottom is green. I am pleased.
Right now I find myself pondering something that I have often pondered in the past.
See, as far as I know, I'm not affected by caffeine. And I don't mean that I drank so much coffee or soda over the years that I'm now immune to it. I mean that I have never felt anything from ingesting caffeine, EVER. Sugar also seems to have no affect on me. When I was a child, I was always confused as to why my friends would act "hyper" simply by eating candy. That's not to say I've never been hyper before, but it's never occurred after the consumption of caffeine or candy. However, I have no idea what it feels like to be "wired", as the weasels say. Is it the same as when you feel hyper?
Anyways, my point is: can anyone else relate to this? I know this isn't incredibly rare as I've heard of similar cases before, but I'm curious about all y'all.
