...on lighter notes. WHO ELSE IS STRESSED WITH FINALS AND PROJECTS AND PAPERS AND ALL THAT JAZZ!?!? *raises hand*

Thought so.

New and interesting statistic: Alice In Wonderland is the most quoted piece of literature (other than shakespeare and the Bible) in the western world. Who knew? And don't misconfabulate it with the warped up somewhat crappy Disney version. COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. I'm in the 2nd book right now, "Through the looking glass." It's amusing. It's funny. It's surprisingly enjoyable. (It was only 6 dollars at Borders, to boot!) And it's a quick read. Recommending if you want to de-stress yourselves a bit or just get out of reality for a bit and get transported somewhere else for a while...somewhere that doesn't involve fandoms, RL, TV, internet...all that jazz.

My potential boy recommended it. Props to him, I know. It's his favorite piece of literature...go figure. Stupid upper level almost-done-with-college-English-major.

They ran out of white chocolate mocha at my campus' starbucks today. SO DEPRESSING. I was so lost and out of sorts. I had to ask the barista to recc something to me. (I don't like it.) It's a cafe mocha. It's coffee and hot cocoa basically. Not light and creamy at all like my white mocha. *sigh* It'll have to do.

And also. Stephen Speaks is my new favorite artist right now. He's very independent and underground-esque. But this song gave me goosebumps and prompted me to propose marriage to the singer. (A friend of mine, jokingly of course.)Listen to it that's all you have to do.

And no, I haven't watched avatar yet shhh. Keep it on the DL.

P.S. I love my comp lab's mac computer. It's SO fun. I want one now. I'm now a convert. Sorry PC's. It's just so smooth and...fluid. 8)

Edit: I need icons. Links/reccs plznthnx?

Yah...who doesn't use this that much!!? ^^; (That would be moi.)

So um...Avatar started up again...that is the reason for spontaneous return--(and the fact that Irrel notified me of Avatar's return via Facebook graffiti. THANKS AMOR♥.)

So um...don't tell me yet, cause I'm not done downloading yet. But...was it good? Who still uses this thing?

...

Who still remembers me is the more important question ahah. (I've been working, going to school, and volunteering...not much time for internet OR TV these days I'm afraid.)

And hey, to everyone who graduated last spring...how's your freshman year in college? Prof's boring? Classes fun? Book prices ridiculous?

Loving ya all still,

Ok. Second...HOMG I MISS YOU ALL THIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSS MUCH♥. Freaking A I need to check this more often. I'm too busy now. u_u

I'm using my myspace/facebook more now. I don't know why. Probably cause I miss my old RL friends I guess. T_T Let's see...that should be everything. Oh...I'm cramming for finals. And by cramming...I mean DYING. YAH. DEAD.

Anyways, now it's your turn. Tell me how you're doing♥!

Mid-terms: 3 down, 1 to go. I guess that deems me my life again, right? xD

Missed ya guys! Let's see. An update in a nutshell:

-Into Grey's Anatomy suddenly
-watched 300 TWICE, (such a good movie, BUT NOT FOR KIDS GOOD LORD! but it has invested in me the urgent desire to marry a Spartan male and nothing less.)
-there's this 26/28 year old staying in my room via my church group; she's nice, she's cool, her name's Keyshia
-I've suddenly become addicted to sunny-side up eggs and am eating them like popcorn in the morning, afternoon, and night (I used to HATE those things!)
-Oh and that old romantic interest, you know the one guy, and the unfathomable circumstances, and the number-giving and um...yeah? I'm talking to him. I had lunch with him today. I am refraining my details because seriously, it was just lunch. An amusing lunch. But lunch. And I'm happy. =D
-I'm trying to work out in prep for bathing suit season. I ran twice this week, my legs are sore from idleness all winter
-Tiger is still hyper and miss you all♥

OH irrel AMOR I TOTALLY GOT YOUR ZUTARA PIN OF AWESOME THANKS SO MUCH♥!! xD I plan on taking a pitcure of myself with it and showing it to you; for now it resides permanently on my school bag. ^-^ Te amo y gracias♥

Expect an update on a_ficathon today/tomorrow-ish! (Sorry it's taking so long, but I am trying.)

My head hurts.

So the Egyptians had a um...safe and contained empire for...300? years-ish because of their location in between two deserts and their culture of being...um...simple...NO! Predictable. Repetitive. The same--

So when designing a table for a web page, the tabular date must be contained between table tags and cellspacing, cellpadding, and ... um...cellsomething must be defined or default setting is at...erm...0?--

Gilgamesh is apparently the first form of literary arteestism in human history, coming from the Sumerians in ... um ...5843908 B.C. Based off of a real king named Gilgamesh, from the city of...Uruk was it? He lost is friend Enk...something during his quest for mortality. Mortality? IMmortality. *headdesk*

Mid-terms should just effing die. T_T

...how I've missed thee♥.

Erm. So...I was out of state. With old fashioned relatives. Who in there old fashioned ways don't need the internet. Nor do their neighbors. And for the past month I've been immersed in their presence without even so much as a neighbor's wi-fi signal to leech on to and update. *dies* And we left so suddenly. How sudden you ask? I forgot my sneakers, cell phone, and contact solution when we got there.
...
Winter break in college is LONG let me just say. fkdjlfj

Anyways, just came back. Now I can wish you all a belated HAPPY CHRISTMA-HANA-KWANZA-KAH, NEW YEAR, AND MLK, JR. DAY! XD Never thought you could say that all together.
( What's new with you? )
Update of Lyn in a nutshell:
Tiger is chubby, beats up our German Sheperd, I'm now into the Death Note fandom, I'M GOING TO BUY THE FABRIC FOR MY KATARA COSTUME IRREL-AMOR!!, and...erm...I think avatar_ficathon is going to protest, mob, kill my firstborn child any day now. (Apparently Red wasn't able to update either?) And I know have dyed my hair to a dark brown with subtle red highlights in it, and have a haircut that I'm second guessing to be a bit too short to cosplay as Katara, and I have been trying for a whole month to buy a Nintendo Wii but freaking A!! Their sold out at every store I've called. Online their going for at the least, $325 fjdklf bastards.

How have you been? ^_~ Missed ya♥.

Hola everyone♥!

Happy Belated Thanksgiving to you all. How was your break? Was it filled with annoying Aunties wanting to pinch your cheeks? Or Uncles questioning your opinions on the latest metal technologies for boeing 747's? Or did you have a cubillion little nieces and nephews running around, spilling juice on couches and destroying the place chunk by chunk? Did you join the holiday rush in traveling somewhere else to vist _____ who lives in ______? And did you enjoy Black Friday? Find a good deal? Lament the fact that the PS3 AND the Wii were not discounted on such a day?

...sucks to be you. xD

I went to Orlando, Florida. ( In which I enjoyed myself at theme parks without a distant relative in sight )

( Spiderman was...and IS...quite hawt in person )

You know who I wanted to see? Freaking Aang. Why isn't there a guy getting paid to wear a stuffy Aang the Avatar costume out there? It's a nicktoon too! It's popular. It's a show. It's got fans. *grumbles* They have freaking Jimmy Neutron and Dora the Explorer but no Zuko! Avatar characters!? I hope they have some soon♥.

Good to be back. I'll try to catch up with you guys during the week. Guess what? Avatar season finale this Friday woot dawg♥!

I TALKED TO little_fool AND irrel ON THE PHONE THE OTHER DAY!!! FJDKFJ

It was amazing♥.

So...it was instigated from LF's (f-locked) post giving out her phone #'s. I said I'd call her the next day. Sure nuf', I did.
( How it went )
It's cool hearing lj-friends voices. You always give them these "mental" voices when you read their journals. But actually hearing them it's like "WHOA! YOU TOTALLY SCREWED MY MENTAL VOICE OF YOU! NOW I HAVE TO CHANGE IT! But your voice is ♥." We spent like the first 5-10 minutes of our convos just remarking on the others' voice. And my convo with Rel, we kept like...trying to talk at the same time. So we'd both talk...then stop...wait...talk...stop...then laugh at it all lmao.

We're dorks if you couldn't tell. ^^;

That's ... all I wanted to say; I need to get a tad bit of work done so I'll catch you guys later. But dude...calling people...on lj...the SHIZ♥.

So um...the Pit of Voles doesn't accept smut anymore does it? Or...maybe it does allow it...but a milder degree?

Cause if not, does this mean I have to get a aff.net account if I want to post the bad boy? *disheartened* Cause I was really looking forward to adding it to my Zutara drabble series. No I'm not shamelessly pimping myself! Whatever gave you that idea? ^_~ I'm just pleased my first attempt at the forbidden genre worked out for others. Yay. ♥.

So...I have been MIA all weekend. You didn't notice, I'm sure. But I had a wonderful time celebrating my brother's 12th birthday on Friday...which is why I forgot entirely about the ZA chat. That same night, we drove for three hours to pick up my friend sweetbutsour, who goes to Gettysberg College in Pennsylania. She is the only friend from our high school (which is all the way in Puyallup, WASHINGTON btw...I'm currently in Maryland if you forgot) that is near me. Well, I have one more In New York...but that's far already jfdkl 6_9.

And then there's that Zutara smut I've been writing for irrel's AU. I'll have it be known, and she can be my witness, that I madeTHE FIRST AUsmut...but damnit I made so many endless corrections and revisions; and then I ran out of time with my friend here...and so now there's like effing 839408 smuts out there already. u_u *sigh* So much for being innovative and original as I love to do. It's my first attempt at smut-anything, feel free to dissect it if you hate it. I'm sure you will. I do. Smut is SO HARD. And I was SO UNCOMFORTABLE. I was blushing like 83908i4903 times. I was questioning ...things...8349089 times. I even asked Irrel, "would people do ____? ... What if it was in a janitor's closet?"

...yah...some awkward conversations...fun stuff not really.

Never seductive.
