wisdomeagleI didn't go to see Dominique. And I don't really regret it.
Dude, I already hate Katherine Philips, and I've only been doing this paper on her for less than a month. All I ever wanted was sweet lesbian love poetry!
I think it's a bad sign when my answer to "what do I want for a late-night pre-homework comfort drink?" is "all of the above." Coffee, hot chocolate, vanilla ice cream, and chocolate ice cream. I would have put coffee ice cream in there, but they're all out.
Speaking of the dining hall, someone needs to tell them Ramen is not food you get at the dining hall! It's food you eat instead of going to the dining hall.
I hate everything happening at once. I could either focus on school or focus on not collapsing but I can't do both at once. I want to go up to Cannon Hill (yes again) and sit there until everything makes sense. But I don't have that many lifetimes.
And finally, a survey, stolen fromGod John Burke (which I'm only posting to pimp his LJ, which is the highlight of my day.)
1. WHERE DO YOU LIVE? On the internet. In my computer. In Hilltop 110. Virginia. Home is where the heart is. Etc.
2. WHAT BOOK ARE YOU READING JUST NOW? Attempting to read about 5000 for school, nothing for fun. (Could be the source of my discontent...)
3. WHAT MOTIVE IS IT ON YOUR MOUSEPAD? Motif, and I don't have a mousepad. I somehow forgot to bring one.
4. FAVORITE PARTYGAME? I Never has the best fic associated with it. Other party games scare me since I hate competition and/or revealing deep personal secrets, which lets out Truth or Dare. Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board has great potential for use in original fiction about life in suburbia, since it's just such a great metaphor and something that everyone does and is just... yes. I plan to write about it at some point.
5. FAVORITE SMELL? COFFEE!
6. FAVORITE SOUND? The sounds Juno makes when I get new email!
7. WORST FEELING IN THE WORLD? The sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach associated with "oh fuck the paper/essay/homework is due today and I didn't do it."
8. YOUR FIRST THOUGHTS IN THE MORNING? *looks at alarm clock* *does some quick math* "I don't have to get up for 30 more minutes." *dives back into bed*
9. FAVORITE COLOR? Purple
10. HOW MANY SIGNALS BEFORE YOU ANSWER THE PHONE? As few as possible, usually, since I always harbor that deep, secret hope that it will be For Me and it won't be my supervisor.
11. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO CALL YOUR KIDS? I'm not having kids.
12. THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS IN LIFE? Friends.
13.FAVOURITE FOOD? Pizza.
14. CHOCOLATE OR VANILLA? Coffee.
15. DO YOU LIKE TO DRIVE FAST? No. I don't like to drive, period.
16. SOFT TOY IN YOUR BED? Yes please. ;) Oh... you mean like a stuffed animal? No.
17. WHICH WAS YOUR FIRST CAR? I don't have one.
18. IF YOU COULD MEET SOMEONE ALIVE OR DEAD...WHO WOULD IT BE? I will not be shallow I will not be shallow I will not be-- okay, I admit. The first answer that sprang into my head was Michael Shanks. But all shallowness aside, [no, Ari, Daniel is not a real person]... Katherine Philips. So I could have a primary source for my term paper. (And no, you aren't getting a serious answer out of me. Bite me.)
19. FAVORITE DRINK? Cherry Coke.
20. WHAT STARSIGN?Scorpius Scorpio. My fandom always names its stars Aeryn
21. FAVORITE MUSIC? Folk.
22. IF YOU COULD HAVE WHATEVER JOB, WHAT WOULD IT BE? Shallow, stupid, and show-related answers aside... professor. Yep. Because I'm just that uncreative. And if you aim low, you'll never be appointed. Er, disappointed.
23. WHAT COLOR WOULD YOU COLOR YOUR HAIR?Plaid. Or purple. Black. I actually once did. Go me.
24. EVER CONCIDERED SUICIDE? How seriously are we talking here? Oh, forget it. Not very seriously, no. More along the lines of "Damn, I wish that I were dead so I wouldn't have to feel any of this anymore," but not for awhile, and... no.
25. IS THE GLASS HALF-FULL OR HALF-EMPTY? The glass is too large.
26. FAVORITE MOVIE? Clueless. Ever After. Fight Club. Eyes Beyond Seeing. Stargate: the movie (No, it's really not. But it had to be mentioned.) Pi. Gone With The Wind. Harold and Maude (Yes, it still makes it onto the list.) Being John Malkovich. A. I. Now, see if you can pick out which ones of these are shallow options, which ones are emotional options, and which ones are movies I cried at.
27. DO YOU WRITE WITHOUT LOOKING AT THE KEYBOARD? Yes. Unless I think about it, and then the ability vanishes like a small smooky in the night.
28. WHAT LIVES UNDER YOUR BED? Plot bunnies in training to be smut bunnies, and a sarcophagus.
29. FAVORITE NUMBER? Pi.
30. FAVORITE SPORT TO WATCH? Shallow options (involving very loose interpretations of "sport") aside, gymnastics.
31. ICE OR COFFEE? Oh good God! How on earth is one supposed to choose? *smites question maker and steals all hir coffee AND ice*
32. WORD/SENTENCE YOU USE A LOT? "squee." "Shallow options aside," and "oh fuck."
33. YOUR SEXUAL FANTASIES? No one on John Burke's friendslist answered this one. Somehow, I think all y'all either a) know mine, b) can get a pretty fair idea from reading my fanfic c) can just fucking ask me for pete's sake or d) don't need to know.
34. SAY A GOOD THING ABOUT THE PERSON YOU SWIPPED THIS FROM? He is John Burke. He is a published writer. He is a geek. He is my hero.He must have my mpreg babies. He's John Burke. What more should I say?
35. WHAT ANIMAL WOULD YOU BE IF YOU HAD TO? Human.
36. WHEN DO YOU LIVE THE MOST? After dark. During the summer. On weekends. When I'm with people I love.
37. DO YOU THINK IT'S OK TO CHEAT AND LIE? No.
38. WHO OF THOSE WHO READ YOUR JOURNAL ARE MOST LIKELY TO STEAL THIS? Oh, I always hate these questions...
39. WHO OF THOSE WHO READ YOUR JOURNAL ARE LESS LIKELY TO STEAL THIS? ditto.
40. HOW OLD ARE YOU? almost 18.
