The lengths I will go to for the most useless things
So I was telling Mai about the EPIC FAIL that is Eragon and the Inheritance Trilogy, excuse me Cycle, and how there was this perfect quote to sum up the plot line; but I had unfortunately forgotten where the quote of awesomeness was from so I began a search on the wonderful world wide web. I was pretty sure it was from a writing/literature forum I ( Read more... ) -
Selective ADD? Perhaps so.
So I should be working on my take home test for Evolution of Science. Key word being should of course, as things always are when pertaining to me and getting things done. But as a certain rainbowy friend would say, I couldn't resist the SHINY. I wish I could say part of this is Quincy's fault but lack of sentinence doesn't even make it a moot ( Read more... ) -

The fucked up world of Greek mythology
And I mean that in the literal sense. No, seriously. Most people know that Zeus was Hercules's father. What they don't know is that Zeus was also his great- great-grandfather and his great-grandfather x 10. Yeah. Talk about inbreeding. -
Newbie trials
I wrote three pages today. To some it might not be a big accomplishment but to me it was. When I write it's just scenes that come to me. I don't even know if they're all part of the same story, probably since I don't have a good idea of the characters yet. As for the plot, I know where it's going I just don't know how I'm going to get it there. And ( Read more... ) -
ROCK CHALK JAYHAWKS!!!!!!
So yeah, I'm totally psyched now. It's been 20 years - TWENTY YEARS since the last time KU won the championships so I'm super glad they finally got it. You know after almost 7 years of living in KU (yes, we lived in the apartments right next to it) I still don't know what the "rock chalk" means. Of course all the time I was there I thought it was " ( Read more... ) -
How much do I really want it?
So I got sick of the ads and decided to switch back to a basic account and now I'm suffering from lack of icons. So I have to chose: ads or more icons? I'm leaning towards more icons which would mean upgrading again. I know I could just get a paid account but I have no idea how much it costs as well as being currently short of money. I mean why ( Read more... ) -
Foraying into the world of art
I just kind of realized something about myself recently. Well, it's something I've always known I guess but never thought about. I was somewhat assessing skills I possess and came to a rather horrifying conclusion. I've liked art, whatever form it took, be it art in the common sense as well as music, literature and such for as long as I can ( Read more... )
