This is a bit of poetry I did, as part of a larger project. Y'all can read it if you like, and I always love feedback, but it's kinda crap.

This is that thing I was telling you about. Part, anyways. )
mood: >:(
music: Green Day, again. Damnit.

So, for those of you who don't know, *coughcoughRachelcough* Masturbation Week has been postponed by it's original creator [info]fehriku, so I'm skipping out on today's post. Also I have nothing to say on the subject.

Hmm... oh yeah. My sister is very pretty. Will likely post a link to the photo album I made of her on facebook to prove this point.

On an unrelated note, I started writing this sort-of poem-thing, but Tei turned it into performance art against my will, so I might put up parts of it for feedback. My hopeless beatnik sensibilities have given it rhyme and rhythm, but also a tune, which means I can't perform it myself. All the song parts are out of my vocal range, and it's a multiple-person piece, so even if I could sing, it wouldn't matter because I can't do all the parts myself. So. If I end up having it performed at any point (I had in mind a school talent show or something), I'd probably start trawling my flist for cast members. Just a heads-up. Anybody who's remotely interested can comment. Oh, it's not finished yet. It's really long, and I'm not yet halfway done. But I showed it to Keira, and she liked it.

Edit: Regarding my second paragraph; proof of photogenic-ness.

Edit 2: For my own benefit. =u=

Edit 3: Updated! Parts 1-7.
music: Green day, surprisingly.

Hm... we'll see how long this gets before it goes under a cut. At first, I cut it because a number of people read this, including my mom, who may or may not want to know the details of her daughter's private sex life. Of course, she saw the first post, but not what was under the cut, so now she is forewarned, and can choose to read or not read this whole shindig.

Anyways. I actually have something noteworthy to talk about this time! After reading my sister's post, it appears I'm not the only one who can only fap in one position -- it's actually the same as hers, which would be a lot weirder were it not for twinpowers -- it's still a little creepy. Said position, were you wondering, is facedown on my bed. This is very inconvenient, because it means I can't do it standing up/in the shower, etc., and if I fall asleep like that, I'll suffocate (this has nearly happened several times).

Uh... I might put this next part under a cut, since it's about my dad, but it's pretty SFW.

I found this out by accident. )

Anyshoes, that's all I have for today. Or, right now, rather. I might be back later. :D

Well, here's me getting a late start on Masturbation Week. For those of you who don't know, it's pretty self-explanatory. Post stuff relating to masturbation.

I guess I should cut this just on principle... )

Well, that's kind of it. I don't have a whole lot to say :\ but I hope this little (late) entry qualifies.

Now, for something completely different.
I had a great weekend. )
Uh... that was way too long. Anyone who can actually read that is a rockstar.

So. I lost my thumbdrive today, and it's kind of important. It went missing in my first class of the day, Humanities. I really need it back, so I'm alerting you all to its absence. Probably I'll either find it or just give up and make up everything on it which is pretty much the last three months worth of my schoolwork, plus my final grades in Chemistry, Social Studies and Biotech/Engineering, not to mention close to a hundred pages of my personal writing but either way, I'll let y'all know.

Oh, it's a blue one of these: http://mobilitysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/image86.png with a metal ring on the end. 2GB, if it matters.

And yes, I realize that this is entirely my fault, and I'm going to try not to whine about how much my life sucks and it's not fair, yada yada, I know. I'm trying to pick up the slack when I'm not making pointless posts on LJ and it'll work out eventually. On that note, wish me luck!

It's Memorial Day in the States, a time to remember those who have died while in military service. Who would you like to remember today?


View other answers



Obviously, I want to appreciate my mom and dad -- neither of whom died in service, clearly, but both of them served for more than three years each, and did a lot of great things to protect and serve their country. I'm very proud of them.

Secondly, I want to recognize my great-grandfather. He was my mom's mom's dad. To be honest, he was a very fucked up guy, did a lot of horrible things (including to his wife and kids), but he was a prisoner of war in World War II, and survived the Bataan Death March. Also not dead, so I guess this doesn't count either, but considering how many people died in Bataan, living through it is just as memorable as dying in service.

Okay, f-list. It's time to get honest. I'd appreciate it greatly if you all could comment on my annoying behaviors or request I change certain things -- I'm dumb, so I can't exactly guarantee anything, but comments are appreciated. Specifically, I'm wondering if people are irritated by my tendency to say 'it could be worse!' when they present their problems to me.

You can go anonymous, if you're worried I'll bite -- I don't, by the way -- or use your username. I swear I won't chew out anybody! Just some personal feedback. On that note, please be nice! I mean, don't hold back, but please don't rip me for my character... without reason, at least.

Macaroons are delicious. Yes they are. Especially vegan ones. Speaking of vegan foods, Taichou makes the best vegan tamales in the world.

On an unrelated note, Enrichments were this week. )
Yeah. That was that. Sorry for leaving off midsentence, I had to jet.

I suppose in the end we all start out the same,
A little bit lost on the rules of this game.
What constitutes love? How do we know what's 'right'?
How do we deal with lonely Friday nights?
How do we decide if all our decisions
Are based on true facts and not just opinions?
We puzzle and question, searching for answers,
To be plagued by wonder is man's eternal cancer.
It's a puzzle I hope I never figure out,
And my curiosity is fueled by doubt.
Through our searches, we eventually find
Some one else who's looking for their mind.
Together, I suppose things get less complex,
Because on your own, life tends to perplex.
And, yes, I know there's no greater cliche,
But I wouldn't have my life any other way.


EDIT: ...D: Why do I like this more now that I've reread it. It's still stupid.
mood: In a pondering mood.
music: Silence. It's really nice.

Day of Silence turned out pretty good. I was really good about keeping the silence, except once on the bus when some guys were being stupid and calling people fags. I couldn't reach them to tap them on the shoulder and hand them the card, so I said 'Guys, today is Day of Silence. Don't say that stuff.' Then I gave them the card and that was it! As far as non-verbal communication, I cheated a little bit when Rachel and I were bored in Health class, in which we got to sit the entire period. Literally. So, bored, we played charades with each other, developed our own hybrid sign language, and got 'Clockwork Orange' confused with 'Banana Time'.

It was pretty awesome.

As for the rest of the school, we got about ninety people to sign up, most of them 6th graders. Most of them knew at least a little about what they were doing, but I need to do more PR next year. It was kind of shaky this year. Also, more communication with teachers, since apparently the mass email I sent out didn't work for about half the teachers. Anyways, it was pretty successful, and I have high hopes for next year!

In other news, I think I might have contracted mono. Which sucks. Anybody who's had mono, what's it like? I've been eating very little, sleeping a lot, and generally feeling cold and shaky for a while. Is this paranormal?

And yes, I did speak to Rachel about this. It could be anything, but we're trying to be careful.

I have been super busy this week. Tomorrow, I have to give an impromptu opening to our community meeting and make it exciting! and then DoS signup. Which, by the by, has gone very well. We got forty our first day and sixteen today. We'll make an announcement during the community meeting, where I'm hoping to clear up a few rumors I've been hearing. Then is actual Day of Silence, meet Steven, and head to Dad's. And that's the end of my second schizophrenic week this month. The next few should be alright, though. Relatively chill.

Tldr; status update: busy.
location: Here, I guess.

It’s time to take drastic measures. I forcefully uncross Sirius’ arms and lay my head on his chest. “Do you hear that?”

“The voice of a Potter that I’m going to throttle soon?” queries Sirius without any true malice.

“The sound of a heart trying to burst free and give itself to the best werewolf that we know,” I exclaim. It’s a rather romantic declaration if I do say so myself.

“He’s the only werewolf that we know,” he deadpans.

“Irrelevant.”

RACHEL:

Bare. (http://tinpanalleytheatre.org/) This Saturday. 8:00 pm. Address:

The Interstate Firehouse Cultural Center (IFCC)
5340 North Interstate Avenue
Portland, Oregon 97217

Trimet (Yellow line MAX) goes right up to it, but my mom has offered to pick you up at your house and drop you off there after the play. It lasts about 2 hours. We're going with a group of about ten, probably larger. A bunch of seniors and my sister. :D

You will cry.

For certain.

I apologize in advance for this. But you'll love it.
music: Mom and Taichou are asleep. I shall join them shortly.

The stage lights are blinding, the floor is burning my feet. I'm improvising, I must be, because I've never heard these words and I don't know what they mean.

Is this a book I've read or is that me standing out there?

Somebody must have turned off the gravity, because I've lost my balance.
