Like Shooting Stars

Okay, Madre is an evil woman for ONCE AGAIN getting that song stuck in my head. This is the third time it's happened in as many days!


Well, back at school. Not sure how I feel about this. Part of me is glad to be away from home again because it means no more kitteh drama for a while, no more being hollered at to stop what ever I'm doing and help THEM do something. But it also means SCHOOL stuff is upon me and that I don't have those dramatic kittehs to provide me equal entertainment and cuddles. I'm missing them terribly right now and it hasn't even been 24 hours. At this time, I would have a Sikozu or Billie Jean in my lap...*sniff* I don't like the empty lap thing I have going on.


In hair news, the PINK is BACK! XD Just got finished taking care of that (after it took me some time to get EVERYTHING unpacked, set up, put away, etc.), and there's a part of me that feels complete once more! I would take pics, but I didn't dry it tonight so it's kinda pointless. I'll take some tomorrow and post the whole lot (precut, post cut, prepink, PINK!) together.


Alrighty, short entry. There's some fic I wanna read (very EXCITED to read, actually), plus it seems updating the journal tonight is dangerous to my heath. I aggravated my knee when moving stuffs back into my room today and mindless babble post is making me bouncy and rock the knee. O.o Might as well just take the temptation away!

P.S. HUZZAH for Michael doing commentary on Penance! XD XD XD He always delivers such amazing commentary!

Tomorrow, I am going home for Spring Break!! I've been missing home since...well, since the last time I left! ;P


Madre and Tedly are gonna be getting here sometime in the evening tomorrow, probably around six-ish. And since she should be getting her tax refund money tomorrow, the plan is to stop overnight in Mobile, then get up Saturday morning and go see the battleship that in the harbor there - how awesome is that?!


Also, since she's getting her money, she will be able to pay me back my $300, AND she will finally be able to get my BIRTHDAY PRESENT! What is she getting me, you may be wondering? THE STARGATE SG-1 COMPLETE SERIES BOXSET!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Yes, I know I already have all the season on DVD, and that I still will eventually be getting all the slim cases, but I don't care! I am a true stargate fan at heart, and am a collector at heart, AND I WANT THOSE DAMN SPECIAL FEATURES! LoL! I've been drooling over this boxset since I first saw it IN PERSON at Best Buy - and next week I'll be GETTING IT! YESH!


And what ELSE will we ALL be getting next week?! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Can you believe it's gonna be out already?! We've been waiting soooo long it feels like!!! FIVE MORE DAYS FRIENDS!!!!!!!! And, for the OST obsessed like me *cough towards someone specifically*, WE GET OUR OST!!!!!!!!! I mean, it's not one for seasons 8, 9, and 10, BUT STILL - ANOTHER SG-1 OST!!!!! *DANCES*


In other good news - FINALLY finished the Farscape novel I pirated from taraleesg1 with permission way back at the beginning of Novemeber. I actually didn't start reading it until January, but I was so caught up in school, and friends, and fic, and fandom - I just haven't had the time to read a good book like I use to. So this week I decided I was gonna turn and burn on it, and yesterday I MADE time to finish it! I missed my math class, even, to get it done. It was a sacrifice that had to be made for my personal good cause - I've felt bad (even though I know I don't need to) about having the book for so long, and i STILL have the S.2 companion - which I WILL read during Spring Break, I swear! It's even already packed in my backpack!


Other things I'm planning on doing over spring break:

-Make that vid I asked ya'll to give me ideas for - which I am again eternally grateful for! Ya'll guys suggested things I just couldn't bring to mind, and I will definitely be dedicating the vid to you all! :D

-Write the Myth Analysis paper for my Folklore class <~~ This one I HAVE to do, obviously, but I'm planning on knocking it out in the beginning of Spring Break so I'm not rushing to do it, cause it's due the first Monday we're back here. I might even get the majority of it done on Sunday (that would be this Sunday), since I know Madre is working.


Speaking of Madre and working this upcoming week - she's gonna request an extra day off so we can have at least one whole day to spend together that won't involve just DRIVING...LoL. Of course the plan is to spend that day SHOPPING - I know I'll be getting my boxset, and hopefully the novelized form of Local Custom (I like having something to read along with - if I can't find it, I'll have to make do), if Barnes and Noble or BAM has it, a new bra for sure, and Madre might just get the laptop she's planning on getting with her money. Then TED can get us our webcams, and we can actually see each other when we talk! *claps* (yeah, I'll just hold my breath on the last part - let me repeat: TED is gonna get these for us - I'll be out of college by the time that happens!)


I really, really, really want to watch Serenity - like the urge hit me while I was down in the laundry room washing my jeans and my rug (there's no point in doing all my laundry and paying money when I'm going home tomorrow and will be able to do it for free!). *sigh* But, SG-1 is on at 5:30 today - so if I watched Serenity, I wouldn't be able to watch SG-1 (at least not all of it) Why Skiffy is showing it as THAT time is beyond me, but hey, they're showing Stargate tonight (the movie) - which would be the second time in two weeks, so I'm not really complaining But I really am!


Alrighty, I think that's 'bout it for now, so I'm gonna go and probably work to fight off some of those brabbits whackin' at me with those whupass sticks of theirs!

So it's taken me over a week, but I've FINALLY gotten my collection of icons organized (except for the Daniel/Vala ones, which are in their own seperate folder entirely!) and uploaded on their own special photobucket account!! It really needed to be done since I've pirated taraleesg1's idea of using an icon with each post. Plus it's a good place to store them just in case.

Having said that, a lot of the icons I've had sitting on my computer for a millenia and being the smart one that I am never noted who made them. So a lot of them are uncredited (any that I've saved recently I've put the makers user name with it, so those will be credited). So if you see me using your icon, and it's not credited, it's not intentional. Just comment and let me know you made it, and i will gladly credit you!


Some other interesting things going on....

joined 555episodes the other day. I figured since I'm renetflixing Farscape, and am now netflixing Andromeda, I'd be able to do it. Plus, everyone who knows me knows that I watched oodles of SG-1. Oh, and having Heroes on DVD now means I've got lotsa episodes to watch!


I've realized I've gotta lotsa 'trips' already in the works for this year. Next weekend is the Chili Cookoff (I have to talk to Merry and make sure we're still going to that!). Over Spring Break, me and my group of friends here are planning on going to Busch Gardens, and then of course in August is CHICAGO CON! *dances*


Speaking of Chicago Con, ordered the tickets yesterday afternoon after Madre put the money in my account!!!!! So the only thing that's left is the plane tickets....*dances again* Very, very, very awesome. I'm so excited! Cannot WAIT for August to get here!


Tuesday I can renew my housing - and we've all decided we want to come back to Kellum. I know that seems...weird...after all the complaining I've done about it, but in the long run if we hadn't have been assigned to Kellum in the first place, we wouldn't have become friends. Plus, if we REQUEST Kellum, there's a very big chance we'll get it (since it has a reputation for being crappy). But since the rooms are so crappy, everyone prefers to just hang out in the hall - it's a very sociable residence hall. And we checked out one of the big end rooms, and it wouldn't suck too bad if we had those rooms. Of course Paris and Shaq have already decided to be roomies, and Madeline and Amanda have decided to be roomies, so I'd be the one with the 'random' roommate again. *shrug* Oh well...not too big a deal. I doubt I'll end up with someone like I have now. Actually, I'm pretty positive I won't! LoL...


I've started working on another vid, and have a second one lined up after this one. I'm very happy I can make vids now...like ubers happy.


And I need to go work on that one I started, so that's it for this post now. I might updated more later, if I feel the urge/need to!

PS: Cold weather is okay. Cold weather + rain + deadly wind = Badness on a whole new level!

PS(squared): I hate when amazon is frelling behind in updating the tracking statis! I WANT MY 1812!

PS(cubed): My brabbits have chucked a possible Cam/Carolyn fic at me that they want me to write (under the strict instructions that there's DV goodness in it). How many would like to read that??
