That's all I have to say.

 Wow, I haven't updated in a while. I guess that's due to me finally getting my license and car. Yeah, I was shocked too at that, especially when it's a brand new car. I have to thank my grandmother for it, of course, seeing as how she gave me the money. Love you always grandma. =)

I have been busy with summer school work and work work. I'm taking Advanced Placement Psychology AND Language. So far I've completed my first out of three essays for Language. It wasn't fun. I mean, politics bore me, and seeing as how my teacher just loves it (and his love for being a Republican), we have to read what he reads.

It. Bores. Me. To. Death. I have never had so much difficulty in English before. =/

Another thing, I have been working on my story Ice Sculpting Life. Though, not that many people are commenting it. I'm okay with it now, considering the high increase of readers each time I post. I don't post that much, because I like letting things sink in before I post. I wouldn't feel content with it.

Other than that, I've been doing a lot of one shots for no particular reasons. Then again, lots of plot bunnies pop into my head, and to get them out I just write. It's good, but normally it doesn't come for my chapter stories. 

Naturally.

Plus, I've been getting really into Batman Begins/The Dark Knight fanfiction. I blame seeing Public Enemies with Christian Bale. For some reason, I've been becoming obsessed. Haha. 

And my Harry Potter loving came back after seeing the HBP.

Zomg, it was epic! I seriously loved it, and was in awe with the whole thing. Sure, some things were missing of course, and the whole Ginny/Harry thing didn't convince me, but I laughed when I was supposed to, jumped when I was supposed to, and be serious when I was supposed to.

Loved it, especially little Tom Riddle. The kid creeped me out, both the 11 year old and 16 year old. Great jobs from the two of them. Lol.

At the moment, I'm trying to work on a new story for the Batman Begins fandom. It's going to be a one-shot, but I need to figure out how to word it/start it.

So, I guess I'm off to do that. 

Good night everyone.

Peace,

PS. I'm trying to figure out why my movie theater is the most expensive to get into around my area. I mean, it's  $10.50 to get in as an adult. Other theaters are around 8-9.

Even the huge Mega-plex in the next town is a simple 10.

So the past two weeks have been horrible, physically and mentally for me.

1. That guy I was talking about, no he's not interested. Not interested in any way, shape, or form. I took the chance and told him that I liked him. He told me that he wasn't looking for a girlfriend. After that, he started acting strange. I stated to ignore it, not bothering to look at him, and other people are saying he's acting weird. He won't talk to his friends that I'm friends with. Simple as I'm going to put it: WTF?

2. I went on a 'date' Friday. My friend set me up with his friend, and the three of us went to a movie. The movie sucked, but I got to know the kid. We started to talk, but I don't feel a liking to him. I seem to like their other friend instead, while I'm still liking NB, which is a total problem. So I like two guys. Eh.

3. My birthday was Sunday. Wasn't fun.

4. I failed my driver's test. The instructor claimed that I'm an 'unsafe driver' and that I didn't pay attention the whole time. He wasn't even paying attention. He was looking down at his clipboard the whole time, except during parallel parking. Naturally I knew I was going to fail. I couldn't even hear what he was saying the whole time because he was mumbling. I asked him to repeat what he said, and he got even madder.

5. I had an anxiety attack Tuesday night. Got a headache, nausea, chest pains, and palpitations. Not fun.

6. I went to the hospital yesterday morning. The chest pains worsen, and now I have to go to a cardiologist Monday. I was told I might have Wolff-Parkinson White syndrome. Then they told me not to worry about it, but monitor it. That made me even more nervous, considering that I might have had this my whole life, no one knew, and something set it off.

7. I can't take the SATs tomorrow, and I have to reschedule. Well, I'm not depressed about that, I'm just tired of being sick.

8. FML in general.

 After careful deliberation, my three friends that I trust dearly and have better heads on their shoulders, decided that NB is into me, likes me, and la dee da...

After I did some careful deliberation, I have decided to form a plan. You see, I have had bad guy problems in the past. A liar, a cheat, another liar, an asshole...so on and so forth. I haven't met an actual nice single guy.

Never in my whole life. I mean, yeah I'm a teenager, but there should be one in the bunch. In my opinion anyway...

Plan:

1. Have Pips (my friend) watch NB in Psych. I need to see if she notices him staring. If she does tomorrow, then we have something. If not, then we wait for the rest of the week. If there's something, we obviously have something interesting to build on. Why do I need her? Because I want to make sure I'm not the only one noticing NB staring at me. Lol. Call her Pips007.

I don't know why I use code names either. *Shrugs*

If first plan is successful, then we move onto next plan... Oh I didn't make it up yet. Gah, I'll need to do that. Well, I'll make one up now and tweak it if I don't like it later.

2. Just walk up to him and ask him how he's doing. If he's happy he's leaving high school, if he likes the classes we're in, yada, yada, yada. Casual talk. Small talk. Ice breakers. If he doesn't budge, well too bad. He'll just have to deal with me.

3. If that works, then I consult my friend at work what to do. If I get nothing, then I'll just have to talk to NB more and more until... well... whatever happens.

Peace and Confusion,
Migs

P.S. Yes, I have concluded I have paranoia. I can't help it, I'm just tired of getting the worse guy trying to get with me. Gets annoying after the first one. =(

Gah! Going crazy

  • May. 13th, 2009 at 5:29 PM
Penguins

Yeah, I am pretty sure I'm going crazy. For one thing, I'm having guy problems.

Big surprise.

Secondly, I've been getting pissed at many different people, because they're changing and igoring me.

I don't roll that way.

Okay, what to start with first. What about the whole people changing, thus beginning to act weird about me, thus not talking/looking/giving me attitude for no goddamn reason.

So I have this friend. Let's call her NCL. So I'm at work, and this girl that I thought was my friend. We hung out, talked, gossiped, divugled ourselves into our problems, at ice cream, talked about guy problems. Yada, yada, yada. Same old same old. Anyways, so lately she's been ignoring me completely. I call her name, and she just either keeps walking or keeps working. Never looks at me. Like she's avoiding me, but I have no clue why. I asked her, and she said nothing's wrong.

Obviously, something is.

Continuing onto my other, somewhat friend DC. Now, DC is a guy, who I used to like. Anyways, so we use to be friendly towards each other, you know talking about school and such. Favorite bands, foods, and whatnot. Out of the blue, he starts to ignore me. I would say 'hi' and he would either keep walking or stop and stare. After that, we were alone and he said, "Our friendship is falling off a cliff. I would say airplane but that would mean people would see it. With a cliff, people would see." I mean, WTF. I finally asked him if he hated me, and all he did was shake his head and walk away.

Should I take that as a yes?

Okay, now onto the petty teenage boy drama. So lately, I've been pretty bored at paying attention in my Psychology class. I look around the classroom at the other students, and I've been spotting this one guy, named NB, like staring at me. It's creeping me out. Well, at first I thought it was creepy, until I really started to notice him doing it. Like I have Marine Biology with him, and whenever he's in the front of the room to talk to the teacher, he always glances at me. Not to someone else, always at my eyes.

Maybe I'm paranoid, but I have proof at how he is because I work with him. He does the almost same thing. I catch him looking at me. And last Thursday, the last day I worked last week, he asked me if I'm ALWAYS behind the buffet. Naturally I am because I like that place best, but when I got to work on Monday, he was behind there. Maybe a huge coincidence, but I think not! He's NEVER behind there. N-E-V-E-R! It's uber weird, and he's not really the clique type to be looking at me. He's popular (in an annoying way) while I'm the quiet bitch that no one likes because I act like I'm better than everyone.

Why the hell would he be looking at me of all people!?

Ugh, end rant. It's just annoying when he was in my mind the whole day, because it's making me confused. I barely talk to the kid except to say 'hi' at work, but nothing else.

He's good looking, I guess, but would expect the opposite from him. Like total ignoring.

Peace,
Dani

It's the first day of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and the first day of autumn in the Southern Hemisphere. What season do you want it to be where you live?


View 500 Answers

Neither. I would rather be in snow or complete sunshine. Why? Because I've been out from school and work for the past week because of asthma. Yeah, before you start rolling your eyes, it's not mild asthma that everyone else has. It's like high moderate asthma, where you can't even breath without having to grab your inhaler. I was on my nebulizer and new inhaler for the past week, since Tuesday actually. Now I found out I have inflamed lungs because of the constant coughing and wheezing.

In all, I'm fucking pissed.

What recently developed technology—cell phones, wi-fi, laptops, handheld gaming devices, etc.—do you think has had the worst influence on how people behave in public?

The worst influence on how people behave in public? Probably that stupid Bluetooth crap. Why? Because people sound like idiots because it looks like they're talking to themselves. First of all, all they ever do is SHOUT into it, as if they're yelling at themselves. It's as if they want the whole world to listen to their conversation (at least their side of the conversation.)

 I thought about my rant before. With the whole liking the guy, but he has a girlfriend. Yes, it has given me a headache, but I realized that I have to suck it up and try to ignore the jealousy. It's easier said than done, but I don't want to mess anything up by saying anything or doing anything. Plus, he's very happy with her, so why upset him? It's not worth it.

Other than that, I'm happy that I had today off, and I have a 90 minute delay tomorrow. The problem is that I won't take my HSPAs, which really sucks because I just wanted to get them over and done with. Now I'm taking them Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Which isn't that bad, finishing off the week like that I mean. 

I just wanted to get them done.

Well, I have nothing else to say, even though I can go on talking about my little boy dilemma, but it's not worth it. *Shrugs*

 Okay, so I made a Facebook today.

Whoop di doo!

Well, it's the only way I can talk to the people from my work. But, I need to admit this in text. I like one of the guys there, but he has a girlfriend. A very pretty one that he's been with for the past couple of months. So of course, I'm shoved off to be the best friend forever, which I really don't mind, but I can see myself dating him. Like, I like him because he's really down to earth and we just get along so well.

But he's taken.

Of course.

A couple of days before I started working with him.

It only happens to me. Gah.

But when a guy does ask me out, it's when he's only using me because he's desperate! WTF?! 

Getting love truly does suck, especially when it's just me.

Luckily I'm only 16, so I have my whole life to deal with it.

Fun fun.

That's a good question, because I have had this name for many years and don't remember. I first used it for Fanfiction, and it just stuck. It's basically just another way to spell the french word for 'cute' which is mignon. I guess it just came from there.

Oddly enough, I have been seeing my name pop up all over the place. It's weird. At first, it was never used (I checked in google when I first put it in), now a lot of people are using it (just put it in google yesterday, and it's not even funny at how many people are using it)! Talk about originality. =/ I couldn't even use it on playlist.com because someone already had it. Grr...

Rant 2/24/09

 Yeah, so today's Mardi Gras, Fat Tuesday, the day before fasting for 40 days, the day horny guys can go to the French Quartier (or however it's spelt) and see free boobs.

It wasn't so fun for me. Instead, I am trying my best not to kill someone.

Okay, not kill. That's too extreme.

I want to punch someone. Anyone. Okay, maybe someone who's on my nerves (which is a lot of people).

I just need to rant, because my day fucking sucked.

So, I'll explain who I am first, just so it's easier to understand. You see, I'm quiet. I don't talk. I don't want to talk. I don't walk to talk in school because I feel like it's a waste of my breath. I don't like the kids there, because they're only snotty brats who think their shit don't stink, and if they talk to me, they think they've sunked into a pile of shit or something.

But don't they like the smell of it?

So, I'm basically ignored, but I don't mind it. Why? Because I notice how people act. I notice how they're so nice to their BFF for life, then they stab them in the back, then blame the problem on someone else. The teenagers also have to dumb themselves down just to be liked. I mean, WTF? Looking like a complete imbecile is cool? Why? It makes you look like a 2nd grader in a 16 year olds body. How is that attractive at all.

So yeah, I'm a nobody, and they make sure of that.

So, I just came home from work today, and I'm treated the same way too. I mean, I try to be nice to people, you know that word that teenagers don't know... um... RESPECT? They either pushed me out of the way, pushed me out of the way, pushed me out of the way, or stand in my way when I said 'excuse me'. 

Then at the end, I was almost the last one done, while everyone else was finished. Did they help me, no! Why? Because they'd rather stand around and do nothing and stay there longer, or they would rather help their friends who are basically done and don't need help.

One of my coaches told one of them to help me, but all they did was put napkins on the table. NAPKINS! I had silverware that needed to be cleaned, dishes that were needed, but no, because they were too lazy they didn't want to do it, for me. Five minutes later, the same person helped her friend with everything. I was like: WTF?

Then two other people, one of my friends who finished and one of his friends. Then once he went to get something for my table, his friend just walked away to talk to someone else and never came back.

Is it just me or something that notices this? I mean, I don't want to sound whiny, but c'mon. It's common sense that if someone's slow, then you help them to leave faster.

 I came back from work, and I'm uber tired. I swear, being a waitress is not fun (but it pays well). I'm surprised that I don't have anything on my mind that I don't want to discuss. I think my brain has turned to mush, and I have to do a History and English research paper that I was supposed to be doing this past week, but I haven't.

An outline for English is due Wednesday.

The opening paragraph for the History is due Tuesday.

That's why procrastination is bad. You do a poor job at what you're supposed to be doing, then you basically fuck up and get a lower grade. Then the teacher doesn't want to take you seriously.

It happened to me once before.

Eh, I'll leave for now, seeing as how I'm trying to watch Holes, but I don't want to get up and fix my DVD player.

Huzzah for pure laziness. x_x

 I truly don't get it. I don't understand why author's have to take a character and completely morph them into something they're not. I don't get why they just have to make a Mary Sue, and claim that it's just not. I mean, I'm writing an OC myself, but I'm staying true to the original story. Hell, she isn't even an OC, if you think about it...

I don't get why people have to ryght lyk dis!11!!1 either. I mean, WTF? There's a fine line between literature and chatspeak. Actually, there isn't a line. They're complete and polar opposites. Same with not capitalizing those I's, dotting those sentences, and clamping everything together! I click on an interesting story, and I get this:

Jezzebell walked down the hallway of Sky High. "Hey, Warren!" she shrieked, pushing past the other freshmen. the beautiful girl with long, black hair and with a killer body ran up to Waren Piece. "What do u want?" he asked chillfully. "Don't get me attitude," she snapped, pushing her blonde hair out of he eyes. "Leave me alone, you Sue!" Warrn yelled and ran away from the fat slob.

I mean, obviously that didn't come from someone. I'm not that mean to copy and paste something. Though, people write like that, and they expect nice reviews. Then again, young author's have a tendency to do that. Give their OC weird names, give the OC an awesome body, spell main character's names wrong, then completely forget and change the appearance of their OC halfway through the chapter!

I mean, WTF?

*Sighs* I'm mean, I did the same exact thing. I butchered The Outsiders when I was 13 years old. I wrote that a bunch of witches moved to Tulsa, all with multicolored streaks in their hair and unbelievable names, but I wasn't that bad. Ugh, don't remind me of the time I wrote about all the boys being vampires, then a girl named Anna Molly moved to town. (Damn you, Incubus!)

Did I miss out on a craze?

I'm just too opinionated. I should just become a flamer to make people cry.

Oh look, Troy is on! Woot. Here I come Brad Pitt, Orlando Bloom, Eric Bana, and Garrett Hedlund!

Peace,
