Like Shooting Stars

Oh, how Glee just kicked it off fucking fantastically tonight. That show really is such a fantabulastic fun amazing thing. LoL. I may need to go and download tonight's episode. What I wouldn't give to see an actual football team go and do that in the middle of a game! (I could see it happening - like as a Senior prank or something like that).


Finally watching some Canucks! XD Well, actually I'm listening to it at this exact moment since I can't really update my journal AND watch the game. But I'm happy I finally get to WATCH some hockey rather than live vicariously through NHL.com and my Google desktop. Even if the Canucks are kinda losing right now (that's how it goes, though, isn't it?), I don't really mind. It IS still pre-season stuff.


Now I won't lie and say I'm ignorant to my own writing ability. It's one of the things, even if I say otherwise at times, I know I'm pretty damn good at. But even I impressed myself today. That paper on Narnia is due tomorrow. 1500 words. Nothing hard, really. But I felt more than unprepared and figured I'd have a hard time getting any coherent argument going. I only read L,W,W and part of Voyage of the Dawn Treader, so definitely felt unprepared. And then, all of a sudden, I found my argument and got the entire paper knocked out in an hour and a half. For some comparison, my roommate started the paper on Sunday and read ALL the required reading for it, was still working on it earlier this afternoon. But yeah...I'm really surprised. I was worried I'd still be working on the damn thing by this time. And yet, I'm not. LoL.


I, sadly, have decided I won't be rereading LOtR for this same religion class. I need to get a headstart on the Harry Potter reading, and I know LOtR well enough to not NEED to read it again (five times already). I WANT to read it, but she's not making it required to read it all and I want to enjoy the books and read them right. Maybe by the time summer comes around again, I'll find the time to give LOtR my sixth read. I hope so. I sooo love the serious.


Alrighty, before I forget, I wanna go check out iTunes and maybe incorporate some new tunes into Remmie. ;)

In other news, I've been wanting to make an update these past few nights, but have been so busy with packing and planning that I haven't gotten around to it. There still seems to be so much I have to do in the last few days that I'm home, and yet I can't seem to figure out what this stuff is! *headdesk* And I have to work tomorrow and Monday, so I don't have a whole lot of time left. Tuesday is gonna be hectic, no matter how much I'm trying to make it otherwise. *sigh*

I'll try and do a more substantial update with something interesting before heading back off to school, but there's no promises!

It's so fun making new playlists! Am listening to the preliminary playlist made for Chicago...it's a tradition we have to make a playlist for each con. This year's is almost finished...just waiting on dvshipper to get me some of her songs added to the list.


So I figured I'd take a break from the half-assed packing I'm doing to post a little bit. I hate it...I don't know what to pack (even after three years of doing it) without feeling like I'm taking too much, and yet I don't think I have everything. It's very frustrating...and I hate that my room is starting to look empty and foreign again...and cluttered/messy where I can't really do anything about it. *sigh* This summer went by so fast, and now it seems these last two weeks are gonna drag on and on.


Let's focus on some con posting...hopefully that'll make the dragging of time worth it (b/c I know when they get here, both are just gonna breeze by!):


( Con Stuffs )

Now onto some personal stuff:

Alrighty, I think that's about it for now. Time to get back to TRYING to pack...*sigh*

Alrighty, so the back to back tweet posts were definitely not intentional. I had wanted to update between them (either Thursday night or last night), but between Smurfinator being a jackass and not getting home last night until right before the planned Twitter ep commentary of Evolution 1/2, I didn't get around to it. I fail, i know. *snirk*


Didn't get to post the pics of my jersey (or take pics of my new room look) b/c of Smurfinator's attitude Thursday night. Well, not attitude, but he was on Madre's laptop until 1 in the damn morning (and he has his OWN computer to use, mind you). So all I got to do when he was done was check Twitter, Hotmail, and catch up on the flist before going to bed.


So after sharing a laptop with two other people for a week, I've decided I NEED to get Lord Danny fixed ASAP. I'm hoping tomorrow Madre will be willing to take me to Best Buy so I can check out hard drive. Will be using the saved fund money to pay for one, but there's nothing I can do about that. I don't like not having my own laptop, especially when I'm going back to school in two months (I know that seems like a lot of time, but when you consider I also have to save MORE money for Chicago, right now it's practically looming upon the horizon!).


In GOOD laptop news, however, James (as in my head manager here at Hebert's) is REALLY good with computers and said he would install the hard drive FREE OF CHARGE for me once I pick up one that's compatible and have my windows disk. *phew* That definitely lifts some weight off my shoulders (I've been seriously stressing since Lord Danny went belly up!).


Fic news: Got a little bit of 'She's Everything' worked on while i've been in here today. Have stalled again, but I'm hoping the brabbits will come back to me before my box time is up. I've been battling off other ideas so I can get working on the series stories when I finish 'She's Everything' (it's SO CLOSE to being done!)


Vid news: Still trying to decide on a song to vid. I'm thinking humorous might not be in the cards this year. MAYBE, though. I have been considering vidding Rock Star or Radar to make it upbeat and fun. I could always just send in one of my Vala vids (Circus, maybe?)...but I want it to be teamyish, you know? *sigh* Such a conundrum, trying to figure out this whole thing!


If anyone would like to look me up on facebook, I've made 'dannysgirlsg1' my nickname over there (are we shocked?). Just thought I'd give a heads up!


9 Days until we go on Vacay! YAAAAAY!!! I cannot wait to go to FL. I wanna go to the beach so damn bad!

Yeah, the Red Wings lost last night. Pens took the cup. No big deal, really. Didn't really care who won, to be honest. Nothing big invested in it! But I can't believe the season is over already. I've been watching nothing but playoffs since March! So it'll be a bit weird to be able to go back to watching Family Guy at night again. LOL!

Okie donkie, that's it for now. I'm gonna try and find that perfect song, even if it drives me wonko!

Been a little while since I did a good music meme!


1.) Comment to this post and I'll give you a letter.
2.) Open up your music player of choice and post a list of all the songs you have beginning with that letter.

captjamieway gave me the letter 'L'


( Ze 'L' Songs! )


*phew* The took a little while! XP

A Knight's Tale is easily one of my all time favorite movies. I need to bust out my DVD and watch it...along with a lot of other movies! *curses the summer for not letting her get caught up on movietimeness*


So yesterday, I did a little bit of wall redecoration...even remember to take before/after pictures. And OF COURSE after I go through all the hard work and document it with pictures, Madre's laptop refuses to read my camera's memory card. *headdesk* I could go up there with her camera and take pictures, but then I wouldn't have the before pictures to post with it. *sigh* It's never easy.


One thing I WILL be using her camera to take pictures of is my SHINY NEW CANUCKS JERSEY!!! XD Got it this morning! The mail dude even drove all the way up the driveway to drop the package off at the porch. *tackle!huggles dvshipper* This wouldn't have happened with out her, so right now she is kinda my favoritest person! But I know I'll be getting a novella from SOMEONE probably next week, so Ash could get knocked out of the top spot pretty quick (or if we have another epic night on the Twitterwebz like we did last night! Lexa was my HERO, saving me from Twitter jail!)


I've thought up a few ideas for songs to vid. Trying to think of fun things - 'Somebody to Love', 'Don't Stop Believin'', 'SexyBack', and 'Rock Star' are the possible choices right now. Madre hasn't gotten back to me on the vidding on her laptop thing, though, so I have a LITTLE time to consider some more. But I want the vid sent out by the beginning of July (JUST to be safe!), so I need to know soon.


BURN NOTICE TONIGHT!!! YAAAAAAY!!


SHANKS CONFIRMED FOR SANCTUARY!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!


Also, Silly String + Kittehs = Epic entertainment on an awesomesauce level! Evil, yes, but funny as hell!


Alrighty, now I have to go and do the chores I didn't get to yesterday.


~Pip

P.S. - Got the next Andromeda disk from netflix! *dances*

I really need to do a POtC movie marathon - it's been ages since I watched DMC or AWE...

Anywho, I gots me a new OST today, so time to update the list! XD

( Ze OSTs )


Oh, and I love that I have an icon now that can double as a 'music' icon AND a SW icon! XP

I didn't actually WATCH that part of Attack of the Clones yesterday, but it's one of my favorite SW moments...

So figured I'd give a nice substantial update...with lots of random jumps and points (wouldn't be me if it there wasn't any, though, would it?)

To start, we've had some Kitteh drama (I know y'all practically feed off the Kitteh Soap Opera that is my life):

( In which I elaborate on Kitteh Dramaz! )

Anywho, moving on from such a sad topic...


( In which I discuss random topics... )

Alrighty, that's all I've got for now. I'm gonna go off and be a good fanfic writer and get caught up on my ff.net posting.


~Pip

P.S. - BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER will be MINE come summer time when I haz dineros to spend again!
