hahahah I will probably be super restless and change my lj name (the one you can without paying LMAO), layout, and icons in the next few days but DOES IT REALLY MATTER no this is not like what I did to my twitter followers ;aslkdfj;aslkdfj /laughs and laughs and laughs

I want this year to be good! I want to make it matter, I want. I think I want a lot of things, and that I'm probably greedy for wanting so much, but it's not like there's this switch inside of me that I can flick up and down.

And maybe, just maybe, I'll get there.

new contact post will be coming soon because lol so many defunct accounts. also out of curiosity,

WOULD ANYONE MIND IT IF I WIPED ALL OF MY POSTS FROM 2011 BACK. because I would like to start on a new slate! ...or I could just move to a new lj BUT LMAO THAT SOUNDS LIKE MORE WORK THAT IS REALLY NEEDED...

but I want to make this matter

2011-12-14T04:52:06Z

aaaaaaaaaa christmas you are so close and yet so far.

THE DREADED FIRST ROUND OF UNIVERSITY FINALS HAVE FALLEN UPON ME.

I started this by not knowing where to go for calculus exams until seven minutes before it started.

yeah, I don't know either.

I followed that up by spending 100 usd on coffee/tea/hot chocolate at three different starbucks. don't look at me like that.

and I ended up finally picking up the care package my mom sent me-it is full of so much junk food that I can't possibly hope to finish it before 2012 rolls around. siiiiiiiiiiiigh idk mother you couldn't pick the package that had idk, oranges in them?

i. pick a song for me to sing, some text for me to read, whatever you want me to draw, a thing you want me to write on, or a picture of your choosing, and I might just choose to do it. (hint: you are best off not asking me for pics of...me.)
ii. pick a fandom, any fandom, and I will probably have been in it. I will then tell you my ships and my headcanon of them. same goes for my original verses, but the only people who even know what those are are my school of beta fish.
iii. I would draw up a list of things I want for christmas, but I suspect all it will be is this: I want to be happy, in the small gestures and moments that it counts the most.
iv. if you would like a christmas card from me this year, please tell me in this post! I am forgetful and I've lost most of them over the years.

Hi guys hahah I am back. :') Was going to ditch this journal but ended up semi-hiatus forever because of really useful comms pertinent to my interests. I miss you all! How have you been.

Senior year of high school was hell tbh. But freshman in uni has been really nice so far! I like it a lot. ♥

But maybe I need something more. A new start perhaps?

Because it's been so long since I've last talked to any of you, if you don't feel completely comfortable with me still being on your flist, feel free to take me off! I understand~

I wish I could have held your hand forever

2010-11-21T04:49:35Z

It's time for me to move on, away from what this journal has meant to me. I have drifted away from the great majority of you because of inactivity that was sometimes valid but oftentimes not. So instead of trying to figure out where all of the relationships fell apart, I thank you for: taking a chance on a stranger with little faith, a paper thin confidence, and a bitter smile; supporting me when everyone in real life either couldn't or refused to; dealing with me constantly dropping off the face of the internet and having a mental/emotional breakdown in every other post; and putting up with awkwardness when I tried too hard to be someone or something worth association. Thank you. but I am fine now and if you are not yet, you will be soon. So I'm leaving this journal and am starting over again.

It's been real fun guys. ♥

spring cleaning a couple of months early

2010-02-22T16:23:33Z

1. new icons
2. new layout
3. new profile w/ credits.
4. cleanup in feeds
5. cleanup in comms

:3 /is pleased by the clean and simple style.

and I'd say something a little more meaningful but I'm just so. so tired.

/drags self to bed and takes a long nap.

eta: meme might be coming sometime this week, if I get sick of rl. but right now rl is EATING ME ALIVE SO UH.
hiatus you guys. /waves.
I'll see you in a week. or two. ...or maybe in three to four. >>;;

2010-01-26T02:54:04Z

the first ten people to comment in this post get to request that i draw a doodle of any pairing / character of their choosing! in return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level. (or you don't have to, I guess? old meme is old lmao.)

spreading the love like a virus~

2010-01-18T16:19:40Z

Reply to this post, and I'll tell you one reason why I like you (or more. no one ever said I had to stop at one.) Then put this in your own journal, and spread the love.

Have at it, everyone. ♥

2010-01-10T22:26:52Z

Ganked from everyone and their mom. Exactly what is says on the tin. B) Give me prompts, as many as you want, whatever it is. They can be anything, and yes I will take repeats, but I want to cover all the letters first. Responses will be in due time, and you'll understand why. People who aren't part of flist are welcome to give prompts. Anything, anytime, anyone.

THIS MEME IS DECLARED OPEN UNTIL I DO SOMETHING STUPID LIKE DIE. :( And it will be moved to out of order after January, so after 1/31st it will be found on the top of my journal. Prompts will be filled in any manner I see fit (for example, I might babble, draw, write, or play/sing something for you, pics, links ect.) and will be promptly linked after completing.

-note: you can ask anything, really. things that pertain to rl or fandom, activities places times people things ideas concrete abstract adjectives adverbs verbs, and in different languages too. If it's a term in fandom then I will probably KNOW IT AND RESPOND ACCORDINGLY. If it's in a different language, I will do it, provided I know what it is in English. So yeah, English Chinese Japanese Korean Spanish Portuguese Italian French Latin Tagalog Esperanto have at it.

BUS, YOU'VE GOT NOTHING ON ME. NOTHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!!!!!

just a short broadcast to tell all of you that-

2010-01-09T07:46:00Z

you know, apart from the whole bitching about how pathetic my body is, I could have it so much worse. O:

I mean, junior year and all that trauma. I could be miserable, I could be hacking up a lung (which, funny enough I've done before), I could barely be getting by (like so many other people I know) but I am-

Surviving. And not just surviving but enjoying this year sincerely. Just. Wow you guys.

Whenever you talk to me or link me something or say something unbelievably ridiculous, I smile and laugh and feel so much better. You guys make a world of difference and it shows.

So thank you. Thank you so much. You mean to me more than you know.

ILU all. \o/ And I mean it! And maybe I say that too much but I feel like I never say it enough. ♥

A TALE OF EPIC FAIL AND LULZ

2010-01-07T21:39:22Z

Otherwise/alternatively known as: You have a really shitty immune system.

Or: You're getting on in the years, man. >:

SO LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT ME AND MY HILARIOUSLY WIMPY BODY. \o/

I had the worst immune system ever when I was an infant. Ever. This may be blamed upon a number of circumstances like how my mother refused to eat those obnoxiously expensive pregnancy vitamins, and how I evidently made her throw up all the time with the kicking and the punching and the somersaulting (I mean, how was I supposed to know that all that fun exercise was depriving me of important nutrients? AHAHAH WHOOPS. Also ironic that I made her more sick than my brother ever did, because usually isn't it the other way around. ANYWAYS.) but the fact is that I was a wimp. I caught every single disease, ran fevers to the point where I was hot enough that my proteins should have and mostly likely did denature and I really should have died (fffffffff, is that why I'm so stupid? as;dlfjkasd;flkj), caught the chicken pox twice (what how is that possible I DON'T KNOW I JUST HAD A RELAPSE), and was just really. sickly. :(

And the doctors, ahahahah those pediatricians. It didn't matter if I had a cold or the flu or was hemorrhaging, it was always like HERE HAVE SOME PENICILLIN. orz My dad's rage at that was pretty intense as;dlfkjas;fljk /laughs and winces.

So he learned how to take care of me and cook food for me and really was just a lovely dad. (still is a;ljkasdfjl;kasf ;A; /loves baba) And I got better. For years! Yay, healthy albeit clumsy childhood (what do you say to a younger!Cal stubbing toes, running into walls/doors, crushing my fingers with doors, falling down stairs, falling over cracks and nothing, slipping on all surfaces-OW MY TAILBONE OW, a million paper cuts I DON'T REMEMBER RECEIVING, mysterious bruises popping up everywhere and generally just colliding into/with things/people. IN FACT I STILL STUB MY TOES ALL THE TIME. And get mysterious bruises/papercuts. D:) Mai childhood.

...............that is until high school rolled around. (DUN DUN DUN) hahahahahah o-orz

And all of the sudden, violent coughs and high fevers! Sore/strep throats, allergy attacks, PANIC ATTACKS (repeat with me: WTF D:), nausea and throwing up. Ulcers and heart burn and irregular heart beats and difficulty breathing (...this last one actually genuinely worries me D:) among other symptoms. AND I THOUGHT I HAD THEM ALL.

Until this week. orz

So I didn't want to go back to school on Monday! It's not that I don't like school-I love it in fact- I just wanted more time off. >: So I drink an unrefrigerated Starbucks espresso double shot in attempts of not going to school but lolol preservatives SO NO FOOD POISONING FOR ME. And I racked up enough sleep that I felt perfectly fine. orz

And then! Something funny was happening come Tuesday. Every time I smiled or talked or laughed, I felt this sharp pain lacing through my jaw! I was like..."hmm, well okay, it doesn't seem that bad," so I ignored it and went on my merry way. But the pain became less a faint sharp pain coming and going and just stayed, and became a dull ache over there and in my neck. Kinda uncomfortable, but hey, I wasn't dying or something. So I just bundled up and turned on my humidifier and slept some more and drank lovely things like hot tea and hot milk and warm and delicious ravioli.

Yesterday I felt really really weird in the morning. But I went to school anyways. However, the pain didn't go away and it went from a dull ache to a persistently sharp ache. I couldn't swallow or smile or talk or turn my neck or even breath-my chest hurt because I was trying to breath and trying not to, because ow goddamnit the pain (/is a wimp! ahahahahah I know. orz) I went home tired and pained and cranky and having two group projects (OF BY PRINCIPLE I HATE SO MUCH BUT REALLY IT WAS WORSE THAN NORMAL.) and was very not happy TM. :( And then I ate more comfort food and it felt like my bones were all tingly and hollow and weird and I realized, fuck, I'm SICK.

My dad's solution to this was feeding me two painkillers that by themselves work 12 hours each. I drank enough hot milk to throw up and went to bed. So it goes.

So today I totally wake up and go to school after downing my third painkiller in 8 hours (12 hour relief MY ASS) I was all ready to face the world! Was supposed to go to doctor later today but HAH MUST BRAVE FIRST THREE HOURS FIRST. So I did! Only what kind of retarded painkiller wears off in 2.5 HOURS. D: /spent last hour typing Chinese in pain, loling at a character that looked like a swastika, being kinda loud and obnoxious and delirious. And then I decided maybe I should head to the clinic. So I went to the clinic! And lololol WE'RE SO PACKED IN THERE and wow a lot of us get sick but at least there aren't suicides around here. :'< (I know a lot of schools that do! It's kinda intimidating and sad.) And so my dad comes over (he never ever fails to deliver ilu daddy ;A;) and finds that I have a fever and he's like AHAHAH WE'RE TOTALLY TAKING YOU TO THE DOCTOR'S NOW.

So we go home. And he calls the family doctor and the receptionists tell him that he either brings me in ten minutes or I have to wait for another three hours and he goes SHIT and bundles me up and takes me there. The receptionists are all kinda pleasantly surprised and impressed and I get shuffled into an examination room and they take my temperature (fever! orz) and my blood pressure (high! orz) and the doctor comes in. And he's like:

doc: where does it hurt?
me: here and here and here. >': and no, this is not just a sore throat because I know what that feels like, it feels like millions of throat cells are lysed/lysing and THIS IS NOT IT. which is what's bothering me, is that I DON'T KNOW THIS PAIN.
doc: /touches neck and presses here and there and here and -
me: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. OWOWOWOWOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. ;A;
doc: dude. your lymphatic nodes on your neck are like. swollen to the size of golfballs. I trust you're having fun fighting off that infection of yours?
me: ...........is that what is is?
doc: well, yes. /looks at me pointedly.
me: ............................sobsobsob.
doc: here, all we need to do is put you on amoxicillin and you'll be okay.
me: ................is that derived from penicillin by any chance.
doc: yes. why?
me: nothing. :I /thinks about how I used that in bio last year for a bacteria experiment and remembered HOW IT FAILED TO DO ANYTHING TO THEM. /also feels like a bacterium, being subjected to it, but does not remark about that in fear of being bound in a white straight jacket.
doc: but take the medication for the entire course or else-
me: the resistant bacteria will come back and bite me in the butt /sullenly.
doc: yes, that.

Then we paid for the visit and went to a grocery store to get the amoxicillin (which was, funny enough, free because it's such a common and cheaply made antibiotic), and while we were waiting for my prescription to be made I got to get cheese and delicious black tea with cream and honey and sugar and piñata apples (that no, did not contain candy inside of them when my dad split them, but yeah, they tasted pretty good) and yogurt and milk and orange juice. ;A; and I feel comfortable and safe and warm and a;flsjkda;sklfjjl;afsj;.

And this is what my dad says:
dad: inflamed lymph nodes? man, I knew that. :/
me: ........you did? :'<
dad: yeah! my sister and your cousin all have that problem. it comes from stress.
me: .............BUT I DON'T FEEL STRESS.
dad: pffft. simply in denial. now eat your stupid antibiotics.
me: b-but then why am I only getting them NOW. orz
dad: well.........it's easier to deal with stress when you're younger. /shifty eyes
me: ...........................are you totally insinuating that I'm getting old. D:
dad: says the person who has ulcers and heart burn and stuff. this was just a natural progression! I'm pretty sure you're going to get white hairs before 20! If you even get to that age, even. :( Why is my progeny so wimpy? You're like. A dinosaur. With the stubbing and the flailing and falling down stairs and slipping on ice and papercuts. A dinosaur that without my intervention as a cultivating parent that looks out for their clumsy offspring would have been eliminated in the first round of evolution. A dodo dino. >: The Last Alisaurus.
me: .........................a;sdlfkj,asdflkjas;dlfkjasfjkl I DON'T KNOW. /)-(\
me: ............................./tries to open the bottle of antibiotics and fails miserably. I. WHAT IS THIS. BUT I'M PUSHING AND TURNING THE CAP.
dad: ....................and even when you have the medicine you can't get to it. D: DODO BIRD DINO.
me: SOB JUST TELL ME THE SOLUTION.
dad: you push down and turn and PULL UP.
me: .....................................oh I see. /opens it.
dad+me: orz

So eventful week was eventful! Wanted to get sick. Didn't get sick. Went to school. Actually did get really sick and had to skip half a day of school. Got pampered and cuddled and ate delicious food and bonded with my dad over my wimpy immune system. ;A; BOTH GOOD AND BAD AND LOL THE IRONY I HATE AND LOVE YOU LIFE/BODY/SCHOOL. D: and orz

AND SO YOU ALL KNOW ABOUT HOW WIMPY I AM. GDIT.

THE END. \O/

What has surprised you the most about me (if anything) since joining my flist/"friending me"? Was anything completely unexpected or have I always fit the picture of me you have in your head?

Post this in your own journal and see how you have surprised people!

:)!

lololol

So you guys probably saw the trick that Cyn had me do. XD Could you ever imagine me as a responsible mother? I'd be horrified.

School's been okay! Everytime my history teacher lectures I stiffle my laughter because AHAHAH HETALIA. lD I thought that US history was hilarious through aph-goggles, but European history is about 10x funnier. And Physics is AMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZING. No joke. My teacher and I, we are evidently on the same wavelength of dorkery AND I'm in the same class with a handful of supercool people. There's also idiots and class-a jerks but that's to be expected.

Orchestra? I really really enjoy being in two of them. I thought it'd be tiring, but it's more like "WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MOAR MUSIC" than "I'm too tired to even hold my violin upright." 8DDDDDDDD;

I have taken the ACT once and did okay but I could have done better! So taking it again this winter. (sob, I WAS DOING IT ON AUTOPILOT. DX /half-asleep through half of it.) PSAT was also okay and the good thing is, even if I do screw up I don't have to take it again because I can't take it again lololol. ;3; And SAT, how I loathe thee. /facepalm

Clubs are okay, and if I studied harder maybe I could have gotten into the more exclusive ones but meh. The only problem is that I don't have a debate partner yet and tourney in a few weeks? Y-yeah. .____.

And summer applications are coming along. They're more along the lines of AUGH WHERE DO I START, but I'm slowly churning through them. Researching more about colleges and programs and yadda yadda, and I realize, hey, I'm okay. Maybe I won't get into that Ivy-league school or whatever but that's okay. Because I'm doing my best and I'll just have to do the best I can with what I get. Lololol useless epiphany, but it really destresses you! Now all the panic for college seems pretty useless to me. : /

Yesterday I ran around as a hemoglobin, complete with the four heme groups and iron molecules and the necessary primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary twisting! ...I think the people giving me candy thought I was just wearing an odd tutu. :'<

So I am a-okay! And signed up for Nano because I'm a masochist and I can't write at all but it'll be fun and YAAAAAAAAAAY TRAINWRECK. (has finished the quota for today, anyways.)

I just miss talking to you guys. :'< /hugs HOW ARE YOU ALL DOING?

AND SOB, I AM TURNING ANOTHER YEAR OLDER THIS MONTH. DX /feels too oooooooooold already what.

you know there's something wrong with me when I dig this stuff up

2009-10-01T22:29:44Z

Because I have no wit nor original dorkery to call my own, let me show you the

I was sadly disappointed by the fact that biologists have no sense of humor. What is wrong with you people.

This trolling was brought to you by Cal. /shot

No uh. I just wanted to cheer all of you guys up and HAVE NO IMAGINATION. OTZ Whether you guys actually have the same lame sense of humor is NOT GUARANTEED.

And all you Philippines people, stay safe. ;A;

Hngggggggh. So evidently, as my dad says, 'If your eyes get red and irritated, it's YOUR OWN FAULT. CONTROL YOUR GODDAMN EMOTIONS.'

This elicits the following response from me:
/............thinks it over
/tries to calm down by counting to 10 to reduce irritation
/just gets more PISSED OFF
'a;lsdjkf;asdlkjf;asldjkf;aksldfj; hahahah, THAT'S ALL YOU CAN SAY?!?'

=_= Likewise:
me: oh I'll be fine! :DDDDD Bees/wasps/other stinging insects DO NOT STING ME.
cynical!dad: Well what if you meet a particularly paranoid/belligerent bee?
me: ...........it won't sting me? ;w;
cynical!dad: You know, you've never actually gotten stung before, so if you do get stung, WE WON'T KNOW IF YOU WON'T DIE OR SOMETHING.
me: /sees his reasoning.
D8
D8
D8
oh snap!
.......wryyyyyyy. orz

~~In other news, it started snowing again! In LATE MARCH. 8DDDDDDDDDDD;;;~~
