Man, what the hell is this "living" crap? Whose idea was it anyway? I don't wanna play anymore.

So I just had a conversation with Cuppa about drawing. It was pretty fun. I really like how she has the discipline to draw something every day, and to learn how to draw things more realistically when her style leans toward cartoony. She's also good at using color, of which skill I am jealous. D:

Found this here. It would be kinda cool to see what other people get, too!

This should be a movie. It would be the greatest, most confusing thing to be filmed, ever.

So, my awesome, cute, expensive Spring clothes? RUINED, pretty much all except for the flip-flops. The Wolverine shirt? Got to wear it once. Then my mom decides that we will save money by washing all of our clothes together, at the same time. In conjunction with Mom's decision, my little sister leaves a tube of lipgloss in her jeans pocket to go through said wash. These things happen together twice. The result is that all of my favorite clothes now have huge, greasy-looking stains all over them. I don't really have money to spend on replacing everything. What I do have, though, is anger.

I just read the creepiest story anyone could ever write about a jack-in-the-box. It was about two pages long. Neil Gaiman, you are amazing.

So I haven't added anything in a while! This is mostly because my life is uneventful. I have a job, which means I have income. Which means iz it can be shopping tiem noa!

Yep, I went shopping. And I spent way too much money!

Got a big, pretty ceramic mug for no reason other than the fact that it is pretty. I'm... pretty sure I have to wash it by hand instead of just stuffing it in the dishwasher, too, but oh well! It holds a lot of tea.

Also got a book full of short stories by Neil Gaiman. <3 Reading them at work during breaks jump starts my brain and fills me with thoughts of, well... actual thoughts! Seriously, so tired of zombie-ing along to country music and silly coworker chatter. (And they treat me like *I'm* a little kid. Man.) The best story so far is about a huge black cat that takes up residency on a family's porch, and they adopt it, and discover that almost every night it must be getting into fights because in the mornings, it's all beaten up and bloody and stuff. They keep it inside to heal for a few nights, and during the days in between, bad things happen to the family. They let the black cat out again and the father of the family watches all night to see what's going on... and discovers that the cat has been being totally badass and protecting them from the Devil. Holy crap!

And last but not least, a set of watercolor pencils and some spring clothes. Best item? A t-shirt with the yellow-spandex-wearing Wolverine on it. <3

Second best is a pair of super comfy flip-flops.

After spending a whole bunch of money, we (my mom, my sister and I) stopped to have dinner at a place called the Wildflower Bread Company. And it was awesomely delicious. All in all, it was a pretty good Saturday.

Double the evil
Double the fun
Double the pleasure
With Voldemort gum!

Happy Valentines Day, guys. :)

It's one of those nights (which is to say, every night) where I know I'm tired, but I don't want to go to bed. I hate the falling asleep process, and I always feel like I'm gonna miss when something interesting finally happens because I'll have been asleep. Course, waking up and getting out of bed in the morning is also something that I hate doing. Go figure. :P

So. In order to put off the inevitable, here are some lyrics from a song I've been listening to lately. I don't think they have any relevance to my life, I just like them a lot.


Yesterday he said my eyes
Were fading fast away
I said well what do you expect
You asked me not to stay
If it had all been for the best
I wouldn't feel this way
And he said, oh he said

He said it's crazy how love stays with me
And it hurts me
Cause I don't wanna fight this war
And it's amazing to see me reading through this scene
Of love and fear, and apologies

My love is like a blanket
It gets a little bit too warm sometimes
I wanna wrap somebody in it
Who can hold me in his arms
Cause when it got a little too hot in there
He was always stepping out for air
And he froze, oh he froze

He says it's crazy how love stays with me
And it hurts me
Cause I don't wanna fight this war
And it's amazing to see me reading through this scene
Of love and fear, and apologies

Yesterday he looked at me with a tear in his eye
And said I'll always tell you you're my friend
I hope I don't have to lie
Because it's clear you love another man
And I said, you're damn right
And he said, oh he said

He said it's crazy how love stays with me
And it hurts me
Cause I don't wanna fight this war
And it's amazing to see me reading through this scene
Of love and fear, and apologies

He said it's crazy how love stays with me
And it hurts me
That I didn't figure it out before
And now it's too late for a soliloquy
Way too late for dignity
It's time for apologies


The song's by Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, and it's called "Apologies." The lyrics by themseleves don't really convey whatever it is I like so much about the song, I guess. But oh well. There they are!

<CelesChere> We had a giant fuzzy spider toy that, when turned on, ran around on hidden wheels. It was creepy even if you didn't consider the fact that it was *smart* enough to realize when it hit obstacles and turn around. I would blink and make little whirring noises. Scary~
<CelesChere> ... *it would blink and make whirring noises. Heh.
<Jorule> lol
<Jorule> omg celes is really an evil robot spider D::: D::: D:::
<CelesChere> 0.0
<CelesChere> omg run away~
* Jorule flees in terror ;;;_;;;
<CelesChere> ...but... you have too many eyes... omg you were the spider all along. D:
<Jorule> what no I totally am not >>>_>>> <<<_<<<
<Jorule> I'm just running really fast D:::

So now I'm writing songs, even though I don't know how to play my guitar, and I feel better. Ridiculously better. So thank you. :D

I feel like I'm wasting my life. I should be doing something important, or laying down a foundation for some kind of future or something, but days go by faster than they seem to, and I end up doing nothing. I should not be worried, at twenty one years old, that I'm making myself into a failure. I really hope that this is not what life in general is going to be like.

Yeah, yeah. Angst angst angst. It's all us young people do these days.

I am convinced. Ants are gonna take over the WORLD. And there is nothing we can do to stop them.

There you are, underneath
Someone else's lucky streak
Is that the way you like it
Is that the way you like it
And you believe a picture takes
A little piece of you away
Is that the way you like it
Is that the way you like it

Be wary, oh be careful
It's only skin, and therefore
So breakable but take heart
It's only a part of who you are

Don't you wonder why everybody cries
Every time you walk away, walk away, walk away
And don't you know the sun
Rises when you come
Follows when you walk away, walk away, walk away
So don't you walk away, walk away, walk away

You believe you've been crowned
With your own private thunder cloud
Is that the way you like it
Is that the way you like it
Oh you don't need remote control
To tell you that you're beautiful
But that's the way you like it
That's the way you like it

Be wary, oh be careful
It's only skin, and therefore
So breakable but take heart
It's only a part of who you are

Don't you wonder why everybody cries
Every time you walk away, walk away, walk away
And don't you know the sun
Rises when you come
Follows when you walk away, walk away, walk away
So don't you walk away, walk away, walk away

Didn't anybody tell you
You don't have to, you don't have to jump
Only do it if you like it, if you don't like it
You don't have to jump
And just remember what it's like when you walk away
Just remember that we cry when you walk away

Be wary and be careful
It's only skin, and therefore
So breakable but take heart
It's only a part of who you are

Don't you wonder why everybody cries
Every time you walk away, walk away, walk away
Don't you know the sun
Rises when you come
Follows when you walk away, walk away, walk away
So don't you walk away, walk away, walk away

('s by Anna Nalick. Called "Walk Away")

Looks like it's gonna be fun! Some people I know and like have joined, and their characters look cool, so I'm looking forward to it. There's also some people I don't know, whose characters also look cool. All in all, I'm excited.

My character, Katj, is kinda plain in comparison to some of the others, but I'm okay with that. ...in fact, I guess that was kind of the point of her design. Her most interesting features (to me anyway) are the fact that she's had almost a full human lifetime of experience already to draw on, and that she's mute. Communication should be fun/frustrating.

In other news... there isn't really any other news. My life is just that exciting.

I wonder if anyone's ever actually played a mute Mime.

So here I am, posting for like the second time ever. Am I the best at keeping a journal or what? :P

Anyway, I never know what to write in these things. My life is pretty much totally boring and non-deserving of observation. I think I have some mutant combination of a cold and the flu right now, too, which is probably not helping me creatively (unless I start halucinating. That might be fun).

Yay, first post! I'm still not sure how to navigate around this crazy place, but I'll figure stuff out as I go, I guess.
