Your Life: The Soundtrack

So here’s how it works. Open your choice of music [iTunes, limewire, kazaa, etc.] and put it on shuffle. Press play. For every question type the song that’s on. And when you go to a new question press the next button. Ready? GO!

Opening credits:
The Fear of Being Found – Blaqk Audio (Starts out slow but picks up. Has a nice swaying feeling. Would need some interesting opening scenes to pull in the audience, though.)

Waking up:
Grand Theft Autumn (Remix) – Fall Out Boy (Way more perky than I ever wake up.)

Average day:
Faceless – Godsmack (My average day is apparently a bit hard core. I wish it was this exciting.)( Follow me, follow me to the pretties )

I have plans for my future home. I’m going to need at least a wall or two of floor to ceiling bookshelves for all my books, CDs, DVDs, and video games. And a really nice desk. So I’m claiming half of the office right now. Also, a sweet TV set up because I have to have TiVo or some sort of DVR and I have two gaming consoles (for now and that’s not counting the SNES I have in my closet). A stereo isn’t really needed, just speakers to play music from iTunes.

But that isn’t my best idea. That is pretty normal for a geeky girl like me. No, I just had a really awesome idea, though it involves a basement and those things freak me out. But, I’ll tough it out because this idea is that kind of cool and random. A padded room. For fun adult like fun. This comes from a conversation about desks and walls and making out. I said that I would only put up with the wall being un-comfy and not the desk because I much rather be pushed up against a wall instead of pushed back onto a desk. I mean, if I’m going to be on my back, might as well be comfy on a bed or couch. Then I had a lightbulb moment. Padded walls. Then, no matter what, you have some sort of support. So yes, first chance I get, I need a padded room for fun. Plus, great place for a pillow fight or all matters of things that you don’t do because running into things hurt.

I’m...going to go back to cleaning my room now.

Tonight I’ve dealt with a serious conversation about not happy things and now I’m writing in my paper journal for the first time in a month and writing about a not so happy incident. It’s kind of gotten me down and now I just want to hang out with people and smile. Luckily, my friend Jeff called and we “talked” for almost two hours (he was playing video games for a good part of it and then I started to play one as well so it was a lot of just random comments on our respective games). We now have plans for lunch tomorrow, which is happy. Not sure when exactly but he’s going to call me when he wakes up. He’s even going to give me gas money (well, I’m also driving him to work, so there is that). It shall hopefully be a good day.

I have all the boxes I want in my room and the rest in storage, along with a lot of empty ones in my trunk. I still have to set up Avalon, clean out the cabinet in the bathroom, and clear more space in my dresser for clothing (starting with taking a photo of all the alcohol bottles I’ve collected over the years, then recycling all but one of each kind). Oh, this is along with finishing my 102C paper (need to read the book, then write the paper) before I go to Irvine. Hopefully I’ll finish my thesis while in Santa Barbara with Mike, all this while I’m looking for a job. I can’t take the CBEST till the end of this month so I can’t count on a substitute teacher job till November, but even if I have a part time job already, I can just say I can work my off days as a sub (hopefully?). Jeff suggests applying for Game Stop for holiday work, since when it comes to retail, I’d probably work best in a video game store (I concur). I’m making a list of places I can apply to and I’m hopefully going to slowly but surely check them off as I get the apps done and the resumes sent out. The sooner I get a job, the sooner I get my own apartment, which will hopefully be a studio apartment because I don’t need a bedroom separate from my living space since when it’s only me, they are the same space.

Need to return to my paper journal. I hope that having things settle down and my major things to do list shorten, I will do better at regularly writing in it and updating here. Hopefully.

I finally reached level 30 in WoW (yes, first time ever, shut up). My paladin is a happy paladin and loves her warhorse. I might buy a mount later, if I find one that I really like. We shall see. But still...I made it!

In a little more than an hour, I’m going to be taking my last final of my undergraduate career. Funny how it is coming after I “graduated.” Hopefully it will go well. I have so much Monster in me that my brain is nicely awake and functioning, but without proper food and sleep, my body is about to fall over.

I don’t see door handles. Last night I ran my arm into the handle of the closet in the hall. Moments ago I rammed my elbow into the handle of the bathroom (it has a bump and slight bruising). My sense of perception makes no sense. Some things I notice easily but those little pesky things like chair legs and door handles just disappear in my peripheral vision, even when I know they are there.

I’m ahead on reading so let me do this.

There is a little alcove in the dining area of our apartment. In that alcove I have my desk. This means that my chair is right next to the wall. I occasionally glance over, see a bump in the wall that creates a shadow, and jump a little thinking it’s a bug right next to me. Between my desk and that wall (on the other side of my desk is the air conditioner so it’s a closet with my desk barely extending past the wall) is my map of Middle Earth in a poster frame (the cheap kind and by Middle Earth I mean a pre-movie map that includes the wild lands). So here I sit, transcribing my notes and filling in pieces from notes I borrowed (the best way for me to study is to write things down by hand), when I see movement out of the corner of my eye. Gasp, it’s a spider on the wall, inches from my arm. So I quickly push away (rolly-chair, go!) but the movement causes the spider to hide back behind the poster. I look around and can’t find something flat to hit it with, boo. It also doesn’t come out but I can’t go back to studying knowing it’s there. So I stay sitting back and wait till it emerges. It does but I still don’t have my flat object. Squishing it with a paper towel by hand seems too squishy (it’s not a spindly thin spider) so I just make sure it doesn’t get into my backpack which is leaning against the wall. It crawls on a plastic bag but gets confused and goes back to the wall. Now, on this wall we have leaning a whiteboard (behind me, obviously). The spider takes shelter and I can’t hit it (no object yet). So I figure I have to give up and just hope it doesn’t come back my way when my back is turned. I make coffee (slow sips, it’s still hot). Then I look over from the kitchen (the entryway is right behind my chair) and see the spider on the front of the whiteboard. Aha! I had my shoe (the heel is best but even that isn’t ideal so I wasn’t counting that as a valid object) but then I figured that the cap of a juice container would be better, though a smaller area. So, with really nice aim, I hit the spider once (making a metal noise from the whiteboard) and it’s dead. I barely tapped it it felt like but it’s dead. And I am victorious. Now I can go back to studying (I promise, I will!) without a valid reason to worry about spiders. Well, I can worry because I know they happen but you rarely see many spiders at once in a house so I can relax. And study. And not burn my tongue. I’ll have more ramen later and some chicken strips (mmm, protein for strength since I didn’t sleep), along with my last energy drink closer to when my final is (no need to crash during the middle of it). I love to type when I should be studying, it’s a bad habit.

It works! Now you can listen to my podcasts through LJ and comment on them. Yay. They will still be posted to blogger and therefore have the feed that way (go Feedburner) but posting it to blogger means I can steal the html to put into LJ and I win (box.net says it can post to LJ but it doesn't seem to like to, oh well).

I have a podcast I have a podcast. I don't want to try calling LJ-talk whatever for audio posts, especially since they are limited to five minutes, though why you'd want to hear me talk for more than that... Of course, then I'm not sure how you could comment on each individual podcast and... I'm working on it, okay!

Leave a comment and I will -
a) Tell you why I friended you.
b) Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc.
c) Tell you something I like about you.
d) Tell you a memory I have of you.
e) Ask something I’ve always wanted to know about you.
f) Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
g) in return, you must post this on your own LJ.

I’m trying to keep positive, I’m trying to motivate myself into doing this work. But I’m started to freak out and I don’t want to fail because I know no clue how UCI handles graduates who didn’t actually graduate because they failed their last required class... I mean, I can do kick ass on my paper and possibly do fine even if I bomb the final I have to take on Friday, but I’m so out of practice and... I can’t really finish a thought. I just need to go sit in my room, turn on some classical music, and read and study. Yeah, I’ll do that. Only my sleep schedule is all off so I need to just stay up all night to correct it which means having to study out here in the living room when Cheryl sleeps. I just need to calm down and remember that I’ve rationalized this out, that I know that logically I can do it just fine and everything will work out. I know this and yet I can’t help but stress and worry and freak out. I just want this over so I can pack up and go home and find a job and live on my own. And buy my own car instead of using my mom’s old car which thankfully still runs but has no air conditioning. My brain is trying to give me a panic attack but I’m going to hopefully stop it in time. Okay, time to wake myself up and get some work done...hopefully...

Dear PvP’ers on Bonechewer (on WoW),
You are on my hit list, just so you know. Killing me with my back turned when you are level death to me? Not cool. I will get revenge one day and it will be sweet.
Sincerely,
Thiorya

Quiz time! But first, a link of awesome: LOLcats Rocky Horror

Now, to the quizzes! ( You know you wanna... )

I went to a funeral today for my great-grandma. She was 90. In less than a month, my last remaining great-grandma turns 90. I don’t think I’ll tell her this little coincidence. She still has a few years left on her, so I’m not worried. At the funeral, the chaplain said who survived my great-grandma and when he said my uncle’s name, all of us where I was sitting just shook our heads and mumbled under our breaths. Apparently he knew but he messed up. And afterwards, someone asked my grandma where my uncle was and if he was coming. -_- He’s been gone for five and a half years, which is hard to believe. This was my fourth funeral in less than six years and if my sister had gone, it would have been her fifth in all her six years of life, but she went to school (the one she went to that I didn’t was her dad’s brother’s funeral, which was on the east coast while I was at UCI). No more dying, I command it.
