Remember how I posted that ship meme thing? And never did it? Imma do it, 'cause I'll be damned if I can't even commit to a fucking MEME.
That took me far too long. XD Although, I did take a rather long break to cook and eat dinner. Which was GREAT 'cause I never cook. And it's just so satisfying to cook your own meal and enjoy the fruits of your labour. Yum.
In other news, like any student, I've been insanely busy. Assignments ALL THE TIME. As soon as I finish one, another one will be due in a short time and I need to get started on it right away. Bah. I want to get moving with the plot for our character journals, but I have no tiiime. TT__TT I really hope we'll be able to do some sort of plot developement soon though, that would be nice.
Also, I'm taking swing dance classes at school and it's sooooo much fun. I love it. I've always loved swing music and I always thought it would've been great to learn how to dance to it, but I never thought I would, 'cause I'm a TERRIBLE dancer. But, I tried it and it's lots of fun and even though I make mistakes, I'm not as bad as I would have thought. So yay. ^__^ Also, I'm so glad I took ASL, it is so much fun. I'm starting to find that I do the signs to words I know when I'm talking to people who don't know a thing about sign language, out of pure habit. Which is probably good for the learning process. Sometimes I get looks though. XD But it's fun, so who cares.
I can't think of any other little facts about the going-ons of my life, so I will end on this note: Everyone needs to watch A Very Potter Musical. It's the greatest fucking musical ever made. Ever. It's a lulz-fest, but the writing and acting is fantastic and the music is great and did I mention that it's hilarious? So go to YouTube and watch it. Noooow.
relaxedAsk me a fandom, and I will tell you:
+ OTP
+ Runner-up
+ Honorable mention(s)
+ Crack pairing(s)
+ Ship other people seem to like, but I don't
groggyFirst of all: NEW LAYOUT! HOORAY! I've been meaning to do it for ages. And a few new icons. It looks great to me, but apparently on Leah's computer, it's all weird. Is it all crazy for other people?
So anyway. About not ever going on livejournal. Um. Hm. Should I do some sort of recap? Or just talk about things I'm into right now?
Too lazy. Maybe later. I really, really, really need to update

I say maybe for Science Fiction because it's closed right now. It says it's "awaiting a timetable change." So I really, really hope I'll still be able to take it. If it conflicts with any of my courses, I will not be pleased. Maybe I should sign up for something else for now, until Science Fiction becomes available?
On an unrelated note:
( LOOK AT THIS KITTEN )
It is freaking cold.
Do I still have all my toes?
No, I don't think so.
Beautiful, wasn't it?
Fuck, I'm cold.
coldBut MAN, I ALWAYS forget how comfortable my bed is. Jeez! It makes me dread going back to Ottawa and my 1 inch foam mattress... --sigh-- You see... You'd think I was kidding... But I'm actually not. It might be 1 and a half inches. But it's not 2, I know that much.
Also, last night I saw Coraline. A-MAZ-ING. I loooooooooooooved it. SO much. Tim Burton... My love for you will never die. I actually said that like 1 minute after the credits started rolling. Seriously people. See this movie. It's been one night and I already want to see it again! I am actually going to see it again at least once this week. It's that good.
In other news.... I've got a lot of reading to do... -____- Bah.
happyDear Berkeley,
Your theory is ridiculous. The only reason anyone might take you seriously is because you made Hylas SOUND like an intelligent man. But he’s really an idiot. And because people thought Hylas was an intelligent man, they thought that an intelligent man was being convinced his outlook on life was wrong and Philonous’s was right. So people thought, “wow, this guy must really have a good point! If Hylas is convinced, than surely I am!” But really, Hylas is just an idiot.
Sorry about your loss of credibility,
Leah A.
PS But then again, you didn’t really have much credibility in the first place, so I guess it’s not that big a loss.
Seriously, this man is so stupid. I know Philosophy is all about thinking outside the box and challenging common sense, but this man's theory is JUST. RETARDED. No Mr. Berkeley, just no.
Also, just a reminder, I need two more people for this meme that I'm doing:
The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you.
This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
- What I create will be just for you.
- It'll be done this year.
- You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be a song. It may be a something costume-y. I may draw or paint something. I may bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure!
- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.
The catch? Oh, the catch is that you have to put this in your journal as well. We all can make stuff!

Then again, if two more people comment, that means I have to do more stuff. XDD But that's ok, it would be fun. And I have all year, so it's cool. :D BTW you can comment on this post without having to do the meme, if you DO want to be included in the meme fun, then say so. ^_^
annoyedAnyway, last night I dreamed I was camping. And now I REALLY want to go camping.
I haven't been on a camping trip for too many years! At least 3! That's just not cricket. I used to go on a canoe trip EVERY SINGLE YEAR. And now, NOTHING. I miss it so much... But I seriously want to organize a camping trip. I don't know with who, or when, but dammit, I want to do it.
Although I don't know what I'm capable of at this point, endurance-wise... I'm not worried about portages, but rather the amount of time I'd spend canoeing. We used to travel every day for around 6 hours, but I don't know if I could stay at that pace, since it's been a few years. But I'd still like to do a trip that lasts around 3-5 days, and every night would be at a different camp sight. Like... The first day, we'd start from some entrance to Algonquin Park and canoe for a few hours, then make camp, then get up the next morning, pack up and get moving, canoe for a bit, have lunch, then canoe for a bit more, then make camp again, and repeat the whole process for a few more nights. It would be SO MUCH FUN. AH. I wanna do it. But I really have no idea who'd want to do this with me. Bah. I used to go on a family camping trip with my dad, my uncles and my cousins (we called it the cousin's canoe trip), but none of them are interested in camping anymore. Laura is, but she's in England and that makes me sad... And my dad is, but I want to go with a bunch of people... Not TOO many people, but something like... 4-6, or 2-3 canoes. It would be awesome. I was thinking of asking Jenn, 'cause I remember her talking about camping a couple years ago, but that would be one person. XD Althought Grady would probably come... But that's only 2 people... I dunno. There's also the problem of getting there. Algonqin is a good 5ish hours from here, although it depends on the entrance you use. But still, I'd need to go with someone who has a car/can drive a car.
CURSE PLANNING THINGS. I wish I could just fly there. I can in my dreams, so why can't I do it now? ... Don't worry, I'm not going to jump off a building any time soon. lol, "any time soon"...
I've also always wanted to go winter camping..... But I think that's out of the question.
energeticWHAT. IS. THIS. FAGGOTRY.
MY GOD.
I just.... I don't even know anymore... This is just.... No..... Holy crap...
People BELIEVE this bullshit! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
If there is a God... Then this is just one huge, fat, ugly, disturbingly successful TROLL.
Please let this be a troll.

WTF man, I have SO much more variety than that! I've figured something out: iTunes Shuffle actually sucks. It's not random. Bands end up always bunched together, and genres and stuff. Every time, I'm like "oh, it's just a coincidence" but it happens ALL THE TIME. Whatever man, whatever. This should be pretty easy, 'cause most of the bands are familiar to you guys.
drainedTOMORROW!

optimisticI love my school, 'cause I was studying in the library the other day and this girl just comes by and gives me a Red Bull "to help me finish my studying." It wasn't just me, she had a whole bag of them, it was clearly some sort of thing they were doing for the students. But I thought that was just so nice that they'd do that. It's a little thing, but it was thoughtful and very useful as well, not like a rubbish pamphlet or anything. XD It made my day.
I also got around to downloading some Christmas music. I love the classic carols, they're so pretty. And I found this fantastic album called "A Festival of Carols in Brass" which is a purely instrumental brass ensemble. I am DYING at how pretty it is. I keep listening to it over and over again. I FREAKING LOVE BRASS ENSEMBLES! They make me cap happy and musicgasm and other lovely things.
Also, it's freaking cold and it's not fair. I meant to do some studying today, but since I decided to stay warm, I stayed at home and therefore didn't get anything done. Which is dumb, I know. But I get so distracted when I'm at home. I study much better in the library. But in the snow it takes me like 45 minutes to walk to school and it's so COLD and it seems so FAR just to study, which I can do here... But I don't... I suppose I'll just have to force myself to go to the university for the next week. Bah.
ALSO, OMG MERLIN. Like... The episode was really intense and stuff, and Morgana was awesome as usually and I was SO into it the whole time. Also, I am attracted to dark!Merlin. Good stuff. Also, I really wanted to hug Gwen. D: BUT FOR SERIOUS, the thing that makes me utilize the capslock button is the preview for the next/last episode. OMFG. AH. OMG. ARG. SNGDFBSPOFGsDV. I can't wait 'till next week, holy crap. AHHH. ..... That is all.
OH OH OH and new SJA! The Briiiiiiiiiiiiiig! Ahhh, I love the Brig so much. AND PART 2 IS TOMORROW! YAYAY! 8D
Oh, and lastly, a slightly moar srs subject. I've been having these really bad nightmares. D: I know that EVERYONE has nightmares, it's totally normal and everything, but these are really, really different. I've had incredibly terrifying nightmares the past three nights in a row, and that's not so normal... I think I keep having such bad dreams is because of the nightmare I had a few nights ago...
I'd experienced some pretty scary shit. And when I say scary, I mean really fucking scary. And not in nightmares or anything, real life scary shit. And no one reading this knows what I'm talking about because I've never told anyone. But the point is... This particular nightmare I had a few nights back was the most frightening experience of my life. And it wasn't nessicarily the content that made it scary... I mean, the content WAS scary, but it wasn't simply that. For those who don't know what night terrors are, they're not actual dreams, but simply very strong feelings experienced during sleep, at the most associated with a vivid image but nothing more. Also, they don't happen during REM sleep, but in a less deep sleep early on in the night. So I know what I had WASN'T a night terror. But it's the closest thing I can think of to describing what this nightmare was like. Because, during the dream, I KNEW I was dreaming and that it wasn't real, and the feeling DIDN'T go away. And then I woke up and I COULDN'T MOVE. My whole body felt like it was on fire, my chest hurt, I was having much trouble breathing and I was too terrified to do anything. I'm pretty sure what I was feeling was what complete and utter terror feels like. At least it's the closest I've ever felt to it.
Like I said, what it was about wasn't the important thing. Which sounds weird when describing a nightmare... But for those who are interested, the part where I was actually feeling this horrible fear was when this... Sort of... Living corpse or ghost... I'm not quite sure what she was... But she was in a window of a building very far away, but I could hear her voice in my head. And she was saying that she knew what I did and that I could run and hide, but she would find me and kill me. And her head... Even though she was really far away, SOMEHOW, in a way I can't even describe, I could see her, and her head was tilting 90 degrees to her neck, and would rapidly switch between sides. It was incredibly unnerving.
But anyway, since this nightmare, I've been afraid to go to sleep. Which SUCKS because I love sleep. Sleep is usually so good... But now it feels more tiring than anything. And I have good reason to be afraid, because when I do sleep, I have really bad nightmares. Granted, not as bad as the first one, but they're still pretty fucking scary.
So yeah, if anyone has actually gotten through my MASSIVE entry, I would love some advice or something. I've never had a problem like this before and I would very much like it to go away, because I miss having a good sleep. D:
scaredIt just keeps getting gayer and gayer.

SO. MUCH. WIN.
I love Lindsey. So much. She won't read this, but LINDSEY YOU WIN x GRAHAMS NUMBER.
Also, let me just say that I'm not THAT dumb. It took me a while to figure out what she was talking about because she didn't capitalize "Doctor" (that was one of the few things I edited, she never capitalizes Doctor XD), and I only figured it out when she capatilized "Who" in "Who delivery service." Anyway, the point is.... Epic win.
I can't wait for my order to arrive. :]
