I am flat broke. I have like $8,and that's in change.

The Family Trip

My family and I went to Tennessee for Memorial weekend. We went to visit my Dad's parents. That took, like, all the money we had. And my money. (Well, mom and I shopped, so I spent all but $20 on that.) The $20 then went to buy food on the ride back.

God, I HATE being broke.

So, anyway, the trip. On the ride up there, I was in the very back of the van. And the roads were all whin-dy and hill-y. So about right before we got there I got car sick.

Once we arrived, we pretty much went right to bed. I took a shower first though. The shower was just... ew. It was all miscolored, and looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a while. I grinned and bore it.

Then, I had share a bed with Jacob. That child snores. Well, somewhat. It was more like heavy breathing... But he curled up, like, right next me. And he would (randomly)twitch his whole body during the night. (He had a lot of caffeine before that, so that might be why.)

The next day, Dad and Jacob went down to Kentucky to our property, while me and Mom shopped. We went to Clarksville mall. I got Chicago on DVD, some new headphones (the left ear in my other pair was going in and out), the new Angel Sanctuary and Ceres, and a kick-ass Batman backpack.

I love that backpack. It is so cool. It has a detachable flashlight that is the Bat-signal when you press the button. Very cool.

Hehe, I feel like a little kid.

But, after shopping, me and Mom went back to my grandparent's house and sat around. We did that the next day, too. Then, today, we started to head home. We stopped at this Homestead place. It's a farm that shows you what life was like in 1850.

It would suck living back then. I had to wash some clothes by hand, lol. I wasn't going to volunteer, but my Dad pushed me forward and forced me to. It wasn't that bad, really. Just a little awkward.

That's about it. Later today, I just hung around. Not much else to do.

The "A" Ordeal and the Lame Duck

Now, this isn't on here for any particular reason. I just feel like venting some pent-up feelings.

Now, for the sake of SOME privacy, the guy mentioned in here will be "A". (If you read previous entries, or know me personally, then you probably know who A is...)

I started liking A last year, my Freshman year. It was weird how we noticed each other. I was walking through the hall after lunch, running late as usual, and I remember my Mom would tell me to smile at someone -- it may just make their day. So I see this boy in the hall, and I smile politely. I didn't particularly pay attention to him -- I just smiled as I passed him.

Different, huh?

Skipping ahead, I didn't really know him. He asked for my number before, and I'll admit, I liked him. Not really LIKED him, but was just interested in him, you know? Then I talked to him later that night on the phone, and then I was just like "Eh. You're not that great. Whatever." (Okay, I didn't say that to him. But that was my mental reaction.)

(Erica says hi! ^^;)

I could tell from the very moment that I started talking to him that he was a player whose only interest was sex, pot, and partying. He was cocky and thought he was THE ladies man.

But I never really liked him. I especially didn't like him after I talked to him.

So, a year later, he asks me for my number again, claiming that he lost it. So I talk to him again, and nothing has changed.

He compliments me on how hot I am. And how when I'm older, I'll look my mom, then he'll have to marry me (that both creeped me out and offended me). And that I turn him on.

Sure, some of it was flattering, but geez. I mean, complimenting me on my looks is okay, but why not compliment me on my personality? It's a big black hole there, ya know.

He said that I was "cool". Well fuck, I already KNEW that.

Now, down to the point of all of this: I never really liked HIM to begin with.

Although it may sound terrible, I like that he liked me. I liked that he had an interest in me, physical or not. You know, as I was growing up, I never attracted boys. So it's just kind of nice to know that I can, and not really try. It's not like I stringed him along for his attention; I never even initiated anything. He was the one that asked for my number, and when he'd talk to me, I'd talk back.

I dunno, I just always felt kind of like the ugly duckling. When I was little, I never noticed. But when I hit puberty, I did. I didn't really feel like I was ugly, but just that I wasn't really good enough, or I was just lacking something. That's why when a guy took an interest in me, I would latch onto it.

Of course, now I don't latch much anymore. Even if I don't have guys chasing me to my doorstep, I get quite a few looks and stares. Now I just ignore them. They're just over-hormonal guys.

I dunno, even if my ugly duckling feeling is pretty much gone (it only surfaces occassionally, now), I feel like a lame duck sometimes. (What's with all the ducks in this post?)

You know, it seems like all my friends have a talent of some kind. But I can't really think of any of mine.

I have two left feet (I'll admit to that). I might be able to sing, I dunno. When I do, I don't really sing out loud. I can't draw. I can't play an instrument. I can write, but it's nothing compared to an actual writer's abilities. I can make graphics, but what will that get me in life?

I just feel... like there's something out there that I'm good at, but I just can't quite grasp it.

I'm empathic, but what am I supposed to do with that? I don't want to rely on just that for my career.

Sometimes I just feel like an untalented, awkward, lame duck.

But that's okay. Because I know something will work it's way into my life. I know it in the back of my mind.

The Beauty and the Beast and misc.

So, Erica sent me Nightwish's Beauty and the Beast a couple of weeks ago. I listened to it, got obsessed, and have started making Phantom of the Opera graphics based around the song.

So I shall post them here. But, since I will be updating them as I make them, the very first graphic will be at the bottom, the second will be the second from last, etc. etc.

Due to how graphic-heavy this page is (and definately will be now), I'll probably only leave the pics up for a couple more days. Then they go away, and the links for them will be provided.

Oh, I got a puppy! Isn't she cute? Her name is Cassie, and she's heading on 9 weeks old. She's a handful. Now that it's summer, my parents plan on waking me up at night when she gets up wanting to go to the bathroom. Fun, fun.

She's still great, though. She's a good dog.

It's about time I headed out. It's going on 12:30 now, and I have to let the dog out soon. Later everybody.

Meh.

Now Playing: Boondock Saints - "Holy Fool"
I'm tired!

Today was okay. I got up at like eleven. Mom and me went to the Westfield Mall or whatever. I got a Sin City shirt, a semi-see through collared shirt (I'll wear something underneath it :-P), and two Film Noir box sets for like $8 a piece.

I dunno, I like film noir. I remember my grandpa watching those movies when I was younger. I always thought they were cool.

My grandma gave me a $100 gift card for Barnes & Noble. I picked out a few things online, and ended up spending like $98.

I got:
Postman Always Rings Twice
The Giver
Arkham Asylum: Living Hell
Batman: Haunted Knight
Batman: No Man's Land Novelization
Frank Miller's Sin City: The Big Fat Kill
Maltese Falcon

I had originally had "1984" on there. But with tax, it went over by like 3 bucks. So whatever. I'll go buy it at Borders sometime.

I saw these awesome Sin City posters at a comic shop. But the bastard didn't know the price for them. And he wouldn't call his boss. They had a whole set of like 6 or so. The ones I wanted were of Nancy and Hartigan. Out of the 3 stories in the movie, that's the one I liked the best.

I have a speech in Oral Comm tomorrow. Basically, we have 40-50 seconds to sell a make-believe product. If we go under or over the time limit, we lose a letter grade. That's the only thing I'm worried about. Last night, I had a dream that I was in my Oral Comm class, but I didn't have my speech ready. So I was freaking out, trying to get it ready before she called on me.

I don't know why that dream came about. I mean, I'm a little nervous about it -- I don't like getting up in front of people -- but still. Geez.

I also have a Civics quiz. And I've yet to study. Heh heh. Oopsy? I'll do that in a little bit. Right now I'm working on memorizing my speech.

I have about $140 bucks right now. If I hadn't of bought that stuff at the mall, I'd probably have about $200. But that's okay. I'm going to order some stuff off of Ebay. "Thrillkiller", and "Catwoman/Wildcat". Erica also wants me to order her a Buffy compact mirror thing. And I have my B&N box coming in like three days. So I'll be entertained for a while.

Also, my film noir box sets have about 13 movies in all. I don't think I'll be bored for a while.

And I still have comics to read.

Okay, I do believe I have to head out now. I'll try and post a more involved entry tomorrow, if I can. Later.

A million questions and a few musings.

Now Playing: "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails
Things have been... surprisingly well.

Some people have been pissing me off. A certain friend that I've had for a long time especially. (Hopefully she isn't reading this x.X.) Well, anyway, she gives me this long lecture about cheating, because I'd been cheating on quizes in a certain class. Yet, the other day, she asks if she can borrow my Chemistry homework, because she didn't do it. Her words and lectures have no credibility if she doesn't PRACTICE what she preaches. I mean, she's doing the same thing, just on a smaller level.

Sometimes people just piss me off.

I dunno. People are weird. I don't need anybody.

I've had people around me all my life, but I've always been alone, you know? It's only recently that I've been feeling more open and wanted by the people around me. It's nice. But I'm still just waiting for the bottom to fall out from under me, because it always does sooner or later.

I'm rather happy in my solitude. But I'm also happy the way I am.

I always thought I was one for adaptation. Put me in a room with a certain kind of people, and I could mimic them and act just like them. But I choose not to. I hate feeling like I have to be someone I'm not. I'm glad I don't really feel that way anymore.

Does anybody even read this? Kinda nice to be heard. But kinda nice to have my feelings to myself.

Whatever.

Sometimes... I dunno. I just feel like an ugly person inside. I mean, I can be sitting there watching someone who is terribly upset about something, and a part of me just doesn't care. A part of me is just so selfish -- looking out for myself and myself only. That part of me doesn't care about anything.

Although, I try and surpress that ugly side as best as I can. I've always been taught to consider other's feelings, and I try to live by that.

Something bad is going to happen. I just... have a feeling, you know? It might not happen tomorrow, but it's going to happen soon.

I created that for Erica. She wanted me to make a graphic for her, and I did. She liked it, so yay.

He's so pretty. That was such a sweet moment too. But he had to go ruin it by getting all possessive and stuff.

I bought the Hannibal Lecter Anthology about a week ago. Basically, it consists of The Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal. That worked out nicely, since I already have Red Dragon. Now I have all the Hannibal Lecter movies! And the books! Weee.

Now, you can't judge me -- but I think Anthony Hopkins -- especially as Hannibal Lecter -- is kinda hott. I don't mean a Gerard Butler-sexy kind of hott. But there's just something about him -- a sort of confidence, an elegance that you just don't see in very many people.

I can't help it. I have weird taste in people in general.

I can seriously imagine me hooking up with an older guy. (Haha, good thing my parents aren't reading this. They'd probably flip x.X.) I mean, not just any older guy. With age, sometimes there just comes this sort of knowing for life. A gracefulness and appreciation for things. I can't really describe it. It's just something you can see in some people. I'm sure some younger people have it, but it's mostly in older people.

A part of me just craves the finer things in life. Sometimes I just want to leave here -- this stinky, hopeless city -- and move somewhere nice. I want to have money. I want to be able to enjoy exquisite, exotic foods, the theater, beautiful buildings, wonderful libraries.

I guess I know in the back of my mind that I don't belong here. I belong up there -- ranks above -- somewhere.

It's just a feeling. But a true one.

Sometimes I feel like such a black sheep in the family. And just amongst peope in general.

I like the details of things. Does anyone ever stop anymore and just look around? At the trees? At their lives? At society? At the people around them -- the people they see everyday?

I'm cursed with un-ending observation. I've always seen things differently than everyone else. I like to see things right down to it's core. Do you know what I mean?

I never intend for these entries to become so deep. That just sort of happens on it's own. Heh.

But, if you are reading this, I hope you kind of see where I'm coming from.

(I just found a stick of Winterfresh gum under my computer. Holy hell, how long has that been there?)

Okay, I have to head out now. I still have Chemistry to do, and I have to take a shower.

Saw Sin City by the way. Go see it. It was awesome. It makes me want to go and direct a movie. The camera angles, the black and white (with the occassional splash of color) was absolutely amazing.

***
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
Emeralds from mountains thrust toward the sky
Never revealing their depth
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated
I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

I'll be your crying shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life

Rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed
You're my survival, you're my living proof
My love is alive not dead
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache, that hang from above

I'll be your crying shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life

I've been dropped out, burned up, fought my way back from the dead
Tuned in, turned on, Remembered the things that you said

I'll be your crying shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life

It scurries past my watching gaze...

Anyway, I'm tired. I haven't been sleeping good lately. My head's been all stuffy. Bleh.

I've been reading Batman comics all day. I have QUITE a few that I still need to read. My problem is that I keep buying more before I get a chance to read the ones I have, lol. I'll probably catch up during spring break. I've been reading them whenever I can.

I've felt like making some graphics. I just haven't had time. Well, I have, but I haven't, you know? I'd get home, eat, hang around a bit, read, stuff like that. But when I'm making a graphic, I like to be able to really pick at it, lol. I HATE having to stop what I'm working on, and continue it the next day. So I usually only make them during the weekend.

I made that for my cousin, Dustin, the other day. The words originally read "Flawless", but his band changed their name. So I just changed the words, lol. I am going to make him another one soon, though.

Comics I Own, and Need to Read:

Dark Victory (Reading, as of now)
Hush 1 (Already read. Want to reread.)
Gotham Central No. 26
Batman: The Last Angel
Gotham by Gaslight
Catwoman (New series) No. 33
Batman No. 389
Batman No. 390
Penguin Triumphant
Batman Legends of the Dark Knight No. 178
Batman Detective Comics No. 801
Batman Gotham Knights No. 59
Catwoman (Old) No. 6
Catwoman (Old) No. 81
Catwoman (Old) No. 91
Catwoman: The Catfile
Batman: Mr. Freeze
Batman: Year Two
Batman Returns

Wow, quite a list. I also have TONS of issues on my computer. Heh. I'll get to them eventually.

I saw Wolverine: Origin up at B. Dalton. I was so gonna buy it. I have it on my comp, but I still wanted it. But I decided to wait. I got Hush 1, and looked at the other bookstore for Hush 2, but they didn't have it. So I'll just go up to Borders or something over the next couple of days.

I've been question myself as a person lately.

Am I a good person?

No. But I'm not a bad person either. If you're in my "circle", then you're taken care of. You're under my maternal protection, or whatever. But if you're not -- then I really don't care.

See, once upon a time I used to care about everyone. I didn't have to know them. It was just a.. natural thing.

But the years have hardened me, I guess. I can give sympathy to other people, if I want to, but I don't. Not anymore.

I don't really know what caused me to change. (Well, if a certain someone is reading this, you might have an idea.) I don't know, I just don't really care. I have my problems that I have to worry about right now, I don't need yours. Once again, if you're in my "circle", then your problems are kind of my problems, too.

***

That weird feeling I mentioned a few posts back is bugging me.

Although, it's different this time.

It's like some great knowledge -- some weird understanding of something -- is in the back of my mind somewhere. I just can't get to it.

Do you believe in ghosts?

I've always been somewhat of a child at heart, with my fears and such. But, even if I wasn't, I'd still say yes.

Have you ever felt, in the back of your mind, that you KNOW that something is there, but you just can't... reach it.

Have you ever been in a room, and suddenly the hair on your neck stands up, and you know, deep in your gut, that there is someone there? That you're not alone?

The feelings I have -- whatever has been plaguing my mind -- is like that. There's something that I SHOULD know, that I do know, but, I don't.

God, I hate this feeling.

Something about it just doesn't seem right. Not the feeling, really, but whatever it may bring.

Am I confusing you yet?

I don't expect everybody to understand -- hell, I don't even think I fully do -- but maybe someone feels it, too.

Why can't you see that you are my child?
Why don't you know that you are my mind?

Amber's party is Saturday. Mom's getting a babysitter for Jake, so I don't have to watch him. I'll lose out on some money, but that's okay.

I still have to pick up Amber's present. Hehe. I probably will like Friday or something. You know me, I'm last minute.

Spring break is coming up. Damn, I'm thrilled! We only get 6 days, but still. 6 days of no school...

After that, school's really almost over. I hate school. Okay, sometimes it isn't that bad. But overall, I don't like it.

As far as my graduation goes, I dunno. I can either graduate early, or graduate when everyone else does. Mom says that my last semester is the best one. But,once again, I do not like school. Dad says that the last semester is NOT the best one. And he even suggested that I can go to summer school and skip my senior year all-together, lol. I don't even know if I could do that.

That would be cool, though.

Ah, I dunno. I'll have to think on it.

Anyway, I have to call and get my schedule changed. I want to take Journalism first semester, Foods second semester, and Psychology my Senior year.

Yeah, I'll get to that eventually.

Ah, just remembered that there were some issues I forgot to discuss. (I named the ones I wanted to cover during my last post)

The Two-Face essay.

Okay, well, I WAS going to make a little essay thing. But yeah, I got busy. So maybe later. It'll be a part of my little essay-project thing... Yeah, whatever.

Relationships & Conflicts
Wow, have my relationships had issues lately. Overall, it's been good, except for one friend. It seems like I'm always at conflict with this one friend. Since this is, in fact, public, I won't discuss it. There may be one or two people that I've actually talked about it to, but that's enough.

I know I've changed, but it wasn't because of "C". I've grown up. Sixth grade was a long time ago, and I've been through a lot since then.

Okay, it's about 7:30, and I still have to get a shower and do some crap. So I'll see everybody later.

A long-awaited update
Mood:  on fire
Ok, so I HAVE been meaning to update for a while. About a week ago, I started working on an entry, but my computer fucked up and ate it. Haha.

Me and Amber G. are working on a Batman story together (Batman rocks my socks!), and I got the first book typed:
Blue Skies Bring Tears

Steal it, and I'll go all Hannibal Lector and eat your brains!

Anyway, my time away wasn't a complete waste. I made some graphics:


Wow, isn't he sexy? I mean, Tom Cruise pulls off gray hair REAAALLY good. I would do him.

Anyway, loved the movie. Seen it one too many times already.

I was going to start a little thing, where I write a little "essay" -- which is more of a formal rant on a certain subject. I had some ideas like two days ago, but I forgot them. Dammit! >.<

Your eyes see but my shadow
My heart is overflowing
There is so much you could come to love
You've got my heart glowing
Tenderly, you could see my soul

I watched this PotO movie from, like, 1989 (I think??). It wasn't the best, but I liked it. The music was good. And Erik was sweet when he wasn't all... skinning people. Heh.

I love that taunting thing he does near the end! I can't figure out what the hell he's saying though.


Yeah, I read Phantom. It almost made me cry. And I don't usually GET emotional.

The quote from the image on the right was taken from Phantom.

Love that movie. It's coming out May 3rd. I'm going to drive my parents crazy with that movie.

*from my room* DUUUN DUUUUUNN DUUUUUNNN DUUNNN DUUUN DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNN
Dad: What the HELL is she watching?!
Mom: Phantom of the Opera... again >.o

Anyway, Amber Gant's pissed off at me right now. The story:

Amber, ya see, isn't much for courteous manners. The issue I had with her about two weeks before was that she was taking my food without asking. Back to the present though.

This morning, Erica returned my Two-Face comic to me before school. It was sitting on my stuff, and Amber saw it. So she grabbed it and said "I'm borrowing this."

A little aggervated, I said, "You mean, 'Can I borrow it? C - c - caaan I borrow?'". So she's like "I'm borrowing your comic." She had to go to the office or something, somewhere out of the media center, so I got into her backpack and took it. Later on, when she found out, she got pissed off.

I don't see any reason for her to be mad. I mean, even when I borrow something from my MOM, I ASK her if I could PLEASE borrow it. It's just common courtesy. It aggervates Erica, too, lol. Or sometimes she'll just be like "You're going _____ with me." Okay, sure, whatever.

She claims that I'm changing because of Erica. In all honesty, maybe I am. But I'm only bringing out what's already there. Now I'm standing up for myself more than I used to. I don't see anything wrong with that.

And I've grown up. In this past year, I've had responsibilities forced on me. I know it had to happen sooner or later, but I had always assumed that it would be gradual, not all at once.

Okay, I have to be heading out now. There was some more stuff I wanted to talk about, but I have to go. Mom wants to go to Wilson's Leather to pick up some coats, lol.

In the next post (this list is for myself, but whatever):
The Two-Face essay. (May be later...)
The ghostly issue.
More discussion on school.
Relationships.
Conflicts.
Flawless pic.

Level 7 (Violent)	Moderate
Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers)	High
Level 9 - Cocytus (Treacherous)	Moderate

Take the Dante's Inferno Test

Yeah, I just realized how long it's been since I've updated in my blog.

So, anyway, I can't remember all that's happened over the last 2 months, so I guess it wasn't anything too important.

I saw Phantom of the Opera. Wow. Just wow. Seriously, Erik needs a hug. You can't help but not wish that Christine would've gone with him, but in all truth, Christine loved Raoul. Not Erik. (Although, maybe she cared for him, but in a different way).

Yeah, I cried. I couldn't help it. I felt ashamed doing so, but it just came out. Which is strange. The only movie I cried at was "The Green Mile".

Also, I'm reading "Phantom". Damn, this book is good. It can get really sad though.

If you've read the original PotO book, then you'll see how Gaston Leroux tries to prove that the Phantom is real. Well, there's a website (phantomoftheopera.info.com or something) that has some interesting articles supporting that. If Erik was real, then that would be awesome. I guess it's just one of thos mysteries that you'll never really know...

My head has been in the cloud lately. I've heard different stories and such running through my brain.

Lately, I've just been feeling really strange.

On more than one occasion, I'll be at school or something, and I'll just look at the crowd, but I don't really feel like I belong there. I don't know how to describe. I'll feel, somewhere inside, that I just do not belong here. I'm not even sure where "here" is. I can't shake the feeling.

Sometimes I just feel isolated from everyone. Kind of stuck in my own mind, you know?

When I'm hanging out with my close friend, I'm not like that. Not really. But anywhere else, I'm never fully there.

"I am simply not there."

Don't worry, I'm not sinking my way into some depression or whatever. I'm fine. It's just that I feel like this a lot. And I can't help but wonder why I feel this way.

Our first semester is ending, the second one is beginning. Soon I'll be in lunch with Erica, Amber, and Amber. That'll be fun. I can already imagine us being extremely loud and obnoxious.

Finals are this week. God, I'm dreading them. They're not that bad, but I do not wanna take my Chemistry and Geometry finals. I'm terrible at both, and I loathe my Geometry teacher.

I just bought "The Complete Tales and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe" today. Man, that guy was morbid. But he's still a great writer, none the less.

***

"If you have no great attachment to your head," she continued slowly, "perhaps you would prefer to share the fate of a Chinese eunuch and carry your genitalia around with you in a small jar of brine."
[Erik] made a graceful shrug of mocking indifference.
"Are you so sure a small jar would contain me, madame?"

-- From "Phantom"

Yeah, I love that line.

I love this book.

"My mind has touched the farthest horizons of mental imagination and reaches ever outward to embrace infinity. There is no knowledge beyond my comprehension, no art or skill upon this entire planet that lies beyond the mastery of my hand... But as long as I live, no woman will ever look on me in love." Erik, in Phantom

Yes, it's a wonderful book. I'm honestly not sure why Erik's character appeals to me so much. He just does. He can be a heartless killer, yet he find himself unable to hurt animals, and gives thousands of gold to support people he doesn't know. He's a very strange character.

Ok, I've gotta head out now. I was supposed to be off the computer an hour ago. Whoops. :-P

37. First thing you would buy with a million dollars? I'd go on a major mall spree buying a mixture of clothes, comics, and DVDs.
38. What time is it now: 10:20

Aren't those quizes so entertaining?

Ok, it is now a couple of days later. I had started that post, and saved it in my draft folder. XP


Yes, this great movie is coming out soon. About a month!

Cannot wait. I love that freaking book.

But, lately I've been thinking about Christine's decision to marry Raoul. See, I used to think that she should've chosen Erik. But lately, I've been thinking she probably did good not to.

Now, I think that Erik is great. I love him. He's the classic tragic hero. But, let's get down to the bare facts.

1. He's clingy. This guy is just... suffocating. Firstly, he'd probably build a labyrinth right in your house. He's be watching you ALL the time! I mean, you'd look in your mirror and wonder if he's watching you on the other end! I dunno about you guys, but I wouldn't be able to stand a guy up my butt all the time. After a while, it'd be just kinda like "Okay, go away."

2. He's jealous Woah, woah. Erik is jealous as hell. I mean, you'd probably never SEE another man once you hooked up with him. If you did then he'd probably stalk over you. ("Ah, I said ONE FOOT APART!")

3. He's got a few screws loose. I know him being ready to murder someone for you is kind of sweet, but it's not that sweet when he actually does.

He's a little cuckoo-cuckoo.

Just a little.

4. He smells. Ok, I know some of you might be like "WTF?" but HE DOES! When Gaston Leroux describes him, he mentions that he "Smells of death." As does Christine. This guy smells like a corpse, ladies and gentlemen. Would you really want to sleep next to some guy that reeks of a dead body? I mean, really.

And eat across from him. Yeah, you'd be taking a bite of your nice french dish, and smell "death." Now, doesn't that just do wonders for your appetite? (The greatest weight lose program!)
You: Honey, what IS that smell?
Erik: I'm not sure. I've smelt it for quite a while. Perhaps it's the labyrinth?
You: Yeah, it's the labyrinth >.> <.<

Suuuuuuuuuuure.

Okay, I'm done with my little rant, I must sign out now!

Maybe tomorrow I'll get some info on me, eh?

Isn't Gerard Butler (the Phantom in the picture above) sexy? Yeah, I know it.

I still wouldn't want him near me if he smelled like a corpse.

With that kind of smell, sexiness just doesn't matter.

Later!

A little far-fetched and long-winded.

I've been meaning to update this. Everyday I'd say "I'm gonna write in my blog today." And whatd'ya know? I never get it done, until now.

I made a wallpaper the other day.
My totally awesome Catwoman wallpaper

I would've posted it directly on the blog, it's just that it's too big. Whatever.

Anyway, Homecoming was a lotta fun. I mean, really. I danced and danced. Then we went to Imo's, where we threw food at my cousin.

Except for Ryon, I didn't dance with a guy. At first, I felt kind of awkward and crappy. But then, I was like "Fuck that." I do not need a significant other to complete my life. And why scramble around and dance with some guy I really don't wanna dance with?

I mean, really?

I've sworn that I'd never get hung up over a guy. That I'd never feel like I needed a man around. I've seen what it's done to people. It's made women obsessive. Made people unable to function without someone to do their work for them.

Made mothers abandon their kids.

It's made mothers let their children, the human beings they grew, get hurt...

Men, don't worry, I'm not some crazy feminist, all gung-ho about the bad things men do. I've seen some obsessive men, too. And, if someone allows themselves to become late that over a significant other, then they're to blame, too.

People are weird.

Life, itself, is weird. Sometimes I just stare, and wonder, "Is this all a dream? All of this, is it actually happening?"

All these people -- are they real? Am I real?

Does that make me a little less sane?
Or am I just one of those odd people, a dreamer?

Sometimes I'm not too sure.

My mind takes you to where you need to be
Cure for your heartbreak to take away the pain
I could describe each mistake for you
Tattoo it on my tainted heart

Well I won't ever tell the world
that I don't belong
Please don't ever tell the world
That I don't belong
That I don't belong

Can you still feel me or did I slip away
A sick man, a monster, broken still today
I can't explain what happens to me
Caught in the game I've always starred
I could decribe each mistake for you
Tattoo it on my tainted heart

Well I won't ever tell the world
that I don't belong
Please don't ever tell the world
That I don't belong
That I don't belong

Well I won't ever change my ways
and I can't be strong
That I don't belong

and it's my own shame
I can't break your ways

Well I won't ever tell the world
that I don't belong
Please don't ever tell the world
That I don't belong
That I don't belong

Well I won't ever change my ways

Layout ver. 2.0: A film noir love story
Mood:  cheeky
Now Playing: "The Unforgiven II" by Metallica
Ok, gotta make another quick entry. I swear, I'm always rushed with my blog entries.

I'm going out of town on Friday. I should be back Saturday night. It'll be great. I'm going to this craft-show place, but it's still fun. There's a river RIGHT next to the place, and when I would go with mom a few years back, me and Dustin would play around the rocks. There were a couple of times where we had to go into the van and put our soaking wet feet in front of the vent, from our feet falling in the water. Yeah, it's freezing down there.

I've got a term paper to write for History. I have a tentative bibliography, which was due last Monday. >.<; And 60 notecards on 10 sources. I haven't written any notecards and I only have four sources.

I'm fucked.

Hopefully she'll let me turn it all in late. I've been busy lately. You know how many times I asked mom to take me to the library? A ton. But we're always busy.

Anyway, everybody like the new layout? Yep, I do.

Max Payne kicks ass.

Anyway, it wasn't that hard to make. But, although it's simple, it's nice. And the layout title is taken directly from the advertisements for Max Payne 2.

Gotta love film noir, eh? Nice, gritty, dark stories. Max Payne is like that. Gritty. Artistic. (How can you not love Max's awesome narration?) Ill-fated love. Deception. Hope.

It's all great. I think one of the main reason's I play the game is for it's story and narration. I'm serious, it's that good.

Maybe some people don't quite agree completely, but I'm a sucker for a good story. I've always liked the ill-fated love thing too. Dunno why.

Should I take that as an odd reflection on my personality? :-P

Well, gotta go now. I'll try and get this all updated tomorrow, with a better entry. But whatever.

Lay beside me, tell me what they've done
Speak the words I wanna hear, to make my demons run
The door is locked now, but it's opened if you're true
If you can understand the me, then I can understand the you

Lay beside me, under wicked skies
Through black of day, dark of night, we share this paralyze
The door cracks open, but there's no sun shining through
Black heart scarring darker still, but there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?

What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?

Come Lay beside me, this won't hurt, I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again
She lay beside me, but she'll be there when I'm gone
Black hearts scarring darker still, yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Dead sure she'll be there

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?

What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?

Lay beside me, tell me what I've done
The door is closed, so are your eyes
But now I see the sun, now I see the sun
Yes, now I see it

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you

What I've felt, what I've known
So sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, cause I'm the one who waits
The one who waits for you

Oh, what I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you
So I dub thee unforgiven

Oh, what I've felt
Oh, what I've known

I take this key
And I bury it in you
Because you're unforgiven too

Never free
Never me
cause you're unforgiven too

Ok, gotta make this quick. I'm supposed to be getting ready for bed right now. XP

Anyway, I've got tons of homework to do. And I've gotta look for sources for World History. Yeah, they were due on Monday, but life hasn't worked out like that. I've been trying to get to the library, but that hasn't worked out too well. XP

It shouldn't be so hard to go to the damn library!

I worked on Friday! I made some money! Whoo!
Some dude made a rather, er, raunchy comment at me. It was kind of.. ew. Anyway, I'm working this Friday, too.

I love having money! It's nice to know that I have it, even if I don't spend it.

Anyway, with last Friday's money, I bought a Catwoman comic, and a sweater.

What can I say? I'm dorky and a fashionista at the same time. :-P

You guys know you love me.

Anyway, me and Amber (Tay!) have been writing a Batman fanfic back and forth. She's been harrassing me to write >.> <.<

I try, really!

You know who's hott?
Anthony Michael Hall from the Dead Zone. I don't know why, but I woke up one morning thinking about the Dead Zone. Then I realized: "Damn, he's pretty hott! O.O"

Also, the other day I woke up with The Night the Lights Went out in Georgia stuck in my head. Odd? I think so.

I've been in the mood to play Max Payne lately.



Haven't had time, though.

I wonder when they're gonna make a Max Payne 3.

I still don't understand how Max managed to live through what he did. I mean, with as much depressing shit happening, I would've blown myself away if I was him. (< Keep in mind, I've never had suicidal thoughts XP)

Wife and kid died. Got framed. Got betrayed by a friend. Got redeemed (he murdered tons, but was seen as a hero). Fell in love with a criminal. Killed a cop. Got betrayed by one of his best friends. His love died. Had a revelation.

I mean, seriously. This guy's life is one depressing story after another!

I'm surprised he isn't negative all the time. Hell, I'd be.

This week has been hectic.

By the way, all I said in my last post:

I was premenstrual. (I know you may not want to know that, but it's the truth!) So it was a bit emotional and exaggerated. But some things in it are indeed true. Like my Dad not telling me he loves me. I tell him I love him, and when he doesn't answer, ask him why he didn't answer, and if he loves me. Still no answer. :(

Ok, I've got to be heading out. I've spent too long working on this. I'll try and update this tomorrow? No guarantees though!

Ciao!

I answer by questioning all that I need
And I want to, to surrender
I want you to see all the sides
All the faces inside of me

I see I?m not perfect, but that?s all I see
Lost in a portrait, in a picture of me
This can?t be everything I see
That my canvas is incomplete
Your color?s everything to me
And my canvas will set me free

My outline is solid and made up of crime
And the things that you say just burn in my eyes
I want to, to surrender
I want you to find some comfort
In the spaces between the lines

I see I?m not perfect, but that?s all I see
Lost in a portrait, in a picture of me

Now Playing: "She Will be Loved" by Maroon 5
Today's day is somewhat hard to define.

The first half of the day was great (with the exception of P.E.), and the second half was terrible.

The P.E. thing: Ok, so I'm in P.E., and we're playing Ultimate Frisbly (joy, joy). This one team we're gong up against were complete assholes. And one guy was supposed to be guarding me, keep in mind you're supposed to be arm's length away, and he was rubbing his BUTT against my stomach, and his sweaty arms all over my shoulders. Finally I told him to go to the other side of the damn field, and to get away from me.

The good part of the day: Amber and Erica. We walked around, goofed off. You guys mean a lot to me, you know that? Without you guys, I don't know what I'd do.

So, after we all got home from walking (for hours), the first thing my dad did was tell me to do the dishes. No hello. No "How did it go?". All he did was point, and say "Dishes". Like I'm a fucking dog, I swear.

So I pretty much stayed in my room the rest of the night. Then Mom came home. And I got a shower. Once I was out, Erica called to ask about work, and whether she was picking me up. Dad was telling me to get off the phone, and I was telling him to hold on. Finally, he snatches the phone out of my hands, and hangs up on her.

I swear, sometimes I wish my parents would divorce, so I wouldn't have to see him so much.

It's sad when I get all excited when he goes out of town.

He never even talks to me. Sure, occasionally, we'll have a conversation. Occasionally.

And when I tell him I love him, he looks at me like I'm a freaking idiot. Mom always tells me about how he's proud of me. Why not show it?

Why not constantly reminding me of what I can't do, and congratulate me on what I can do?

Why, Dad, why?

Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow
I want more

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore

It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along
My heart is full and my door's always open
You can come anytime you want

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Try so hard to say goodbye

'The Roads Traveled' and some musings

Now Playing: Mark Collie - "In Time"
Yep, been a bit since I've updated.

I was hoping to get an entry in yesterday, but I guess that didn't happen. :-\

The weekend was ok. Pretty boring. But, hey, atleast I'm not at school.

That Mark Collie song is from the Punisher soundtrack, by the way. It has a bit of an oldie-sound, but that's okay. It's a good song. The whole soundtrack is good, actually. There's one or 2 song I don't particularly care for, but the others I like.



Ok, so I was going through my "My Documents" folder today, and deleting crap I didn't need. I came across this Microsoft Word document titled "Drabble". So I clicked on it and found this:

Through the shadows of this wicked empathy
I hear a voice that longs to set us free

So, I read it, and am like "Where'd this come from?" So I do a Google search, and nothing comes up. So that means that I wrote it.

Odd thing is, I don't remember writing. Maybe faintly, but that's it. It was a "What the fuck?" moment.

Although, you must admit, it has an odd ring to it. ;)

Anyway, I've been in a poetic mood lately. Felt like writing stories, yet all I've managed to produce was odd poetry. I've never considered myself a poet, mind you.

I am the female version of "William the Bloody". (All you Buff fans should get that joke. Haha)

But, check out this little diddy:

The Roads Traveled

A vagabond
A rogue at heart
A true loner
Who?s worlds apart

I was once like you
But the truth was oh so true
I put up a fake smile, a fake face
In hopes that I would be welcomed into this coveted place

Why must everything be perfect in your little world?
If you do not measure up
Then you gotta pay up
Ya gotta pay your soul, your heart, and your will
Come on, smile that fake smile for me now.

Run away, run away.
I?ve already fallen down
But I keep running
Why do I keep falling down?

And now things are spinning, spinning
Spinning out of control
And I keep falling now.
And I can feel everything spiraling down.

Ah, it's okay. Too many people pretend to be who they're not. It's ridiculus. Not to make myself sound special, but I can see right through a person's act.

But, I read body language. So that may be it. And I'm observant, when I choose to be. (Any other time I'm absent-minded, hehe.) Maybe that's why I want to pursue a career in psychology. So I can learn why people do that. Ok, maybe I already know**. But, explore it more, ya know?

I think I'd make a psychologist. I'm a good listener. And I like to help people.

So how does that make you feel?

:)

Anyway, me, Erica, and (possibly) Amber are gonna try out for Cheerleading. I was wanting to try out last year, but I decided I wanted to at the last minute, so I didn't have any time to train. But this year I'm getting a good start.

It's gonna be hard! But that's okay ^^;

And, if I don't make it, then atleast I'll be able to do the splits. Hell, that's an accomplishment right there. And, Mom said she can try and get our, erm, connections to yank the chains a little bit. Not that I'm being unfair.

The honest truth, my friends, is that cheerleading squads and things like that are almost always political. But that's life. And life isn't fair.

Although, occasionally you'll come across a squad that is truly fair. But that's not likely.

Won't get into all that tonight, though. I'm supposed to be going to bed right now.

G'night, everybody.

I can hear what you're thinking,
All your doubts and fears,
And if you look in my eyes, in time you'll find,
The reason I'm here.

And in time all things shall pass away,
In time, you may come back someday.
To live once more, or die once more,
But in time, your time will be no more.

You know your days are numbered,
Count them one by one,
Like notches in the handle of an outlaw's gun.
You can outrun the devil, if you try,
But you'll never outrun the hands of time.

In time there surely, come a day
In time all things shall pass away,
In time you may come back some say.
To live once more, or die once more,
But in time, your time will be no more.

I can hear what you're thinking.

Good song. (^ See above)

Reminds me of Vice City a lot. I get an odd image of Vice in a sunset, and all the city's corrupt starting to walk the street, heavily shadowed by the setting sun. Would make a good image. Or a camera angle... (and the ideas are flooding... O.O )

I would make a kick-ass movie. Even when I think about little stories in my head, I always have these great camera angles and stuff like that. Camera angles in a daydream? Yep. Atleast for me.

I'm gonna make a movie one day. Or write a script, then hawk around the director making the movie.

Anyway, I've gotta go soon. Pictures are tomorrow, so I've got my hair in braids so they look all nice and pretty for pictures. And I have NO IDEA how to do Geometry. It's only the third week of school, yet I dunno how to do it.

Hey, everybody has their weakness. Math is mine :-\

And, yeah, Adam is still in my lunch hour. Cool, eh? I'm assuming he just skipped his lunch hour the last couple of days? Hell, if I had a car, I would to. I'd trade in the school food for some fast food any day!

I still need to write. I've been in a bit of a writing mood lately. Haven't had time though >.<;

It's odd that when I get in a writing mood, which is rare and far between, I don't have time to write. School work has been dragging me down. And real life.

Yeah, I went walking with Erica, then, when I got home, I had to go to Jacob's open house. And then I went home, tried to get a bit of homework done. Then I had to get a shower, and all that fun stuff. So I still don't have my homework done >.<;

School has just started, and I already want it to end!

Ok, I'm off now. Got crap to do before bed. 'Night!

May I finally get in the writing mood, and have time to write! ^^

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord
I've been waiting for this moment, all my life, Oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord, Oh Lord

Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off the grin, I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord
I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, Oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, Oh Lord, Oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment all my life, Oh Lord, Oh Lord

Well I remember, I remember don't worry
How could I ever forget, it's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, no you don't fool me
The hurt doesn't show; but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you or me

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord...

Another Monday. XP

Ok, so I go to school today wearing this real cute outfit. The under-shirt is a brown and blue bustier. And I wore a mesh long sleeve shirt underneath it. So I get to school and a narc (The given title to the people that hawk around the grounds) pulls me into the office. She sends me to the principal, who says my shirt is inappropriate. And, keep in mind that I waited in the office for about 45 damn minutes! (Although, after 15, I pulled out a Batman comic and whistled from boredom. Don't think the narc liked that too much ^^ ).

So the principal calls up my mom, and tells her to bring me a new shirt. Mom says she can't, and that she'll just pick me up. (
It was fun. Better than school.

Damn office people. They're all hags in that office. Seriously!

I honestly didn't think the shirt was that bad. It's not like I wore the bustier on it's own (which I'd never do).

Ah, fuck em. (< To quote the illustrious Mr. Blonde)

Also, in first hour, all the Sophmores had an assembly about our class rings. I sat through that whole thing thinking "Mom and Dad aren't gonna get me one. I dunno why I'm even listening. :( "

But, once I got home, Dad said I'll get one my Senior year. Then, once Dad was gone, Mom informed me that I'll get one by the end of this year. Yay! :D

No cool poetry today. Sorry. Been busy.

Ok, not really. I've been lazy. And preoccupied.

By the way, I watched Hannibal. Good movie. Then I ate lasagna. :-\

Ya know what I had on my mind while I was taking a big bite of that lasagna? "The lasagna is all squiggly... it looks like Ray Liotta's brain..." Oddly enough, I still ate it. O.O

I liked Silence of the Lambs better. But whatever. It's still good. Now I've gotta watch Red Dragon. I'm gonna try and get to that sometime this week.

Might be going walking with Erica tomorrow. That'll be fun!

I have an urge to watch Leon. But Erica has it. :(

Ok, gotta get going! I have things to do for school tomorrow! Ciao!

Yay for skipping school! And stupid dress codes! XD

***
He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn?t play for the money he wins
He doesn?t play for the respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that?s not the shape of my heart

He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that?s not the shape of my heart
That?s not the shape, the shape of my heart

And if I told you that I loved you
You?d maybe think there?s something wrong
I?m not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who smile are lost

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that?s not the shape of my heart
That?s not the shape of my heart
