Right now I'm listening to new/I've-never-heard-of-it music on iTunes. This has become a new habit of mine. I spend hours listening to 30 second clips of songs, and somehow the whole afternoon is wasted. Except that in this case, it's morning. As such, I'm wishing I could go back to sleep. Saturday morning, and I was wide awake at 8am. I actually ( Read more... )

Last night I was sitting on my bed, in my room, reading Tale of Two Cities for Historical Fiction, when I had the strongest deja vu of my life. Suddenly I had been exactly where I was before. I had been sitting on my bed, reading that exact section of Tale of Two Cities for a lit class with Marcia, able to see my door and the alcove-y thing it's in ( Read more... )

Best part of the first day of school = tackle-hugging. Without questions. I absolutely love the first day of school, and I totally dig all my classes. At least, I do so far. I'm a slight bit concerned about Analysis, which I went to today. I might have to resort to reading the information in the book after every lesson Ed teaches. Either that, or ( Read more... )

I'm stressing. One of my main goals this summer was to finish this specific fanfic, and I'm editing my ass off, but I'm not done yet. And I feel really, really fat. The only thing I'm looking forward to is seeing all my friends. Suddenly I feel like I don't have enough time for anything.

Lots of love,
Emily

Certain monthly events have finally taken place, and I am very much relieved. Having almost two whole weeks of PMS really, really sucks ( Read more... )

I just had to block a friend on both AIM and MSN. Although I suppose I should say an ex-friend, because I don't consider us to be friends anymore, even though he still might. I can't give him any explanation because I'm afraid that if I say anything, he'll do something stupid. Not that I would blame myself in any way. Well, I probably would, but I ( Read more... )

I feel like my head is filled with cotton balls. Cotton balls that somehow weigh about twenty pounds each. Which isn't really all that logical, since they're little puffs of cotton and practically weightless, but there you are. My head is jam packed with twenty-pound cotton balls. And no, I'm not on anything, I swear. Except maybe Benadryl, which ( Read more... )

Yesterday I spent four hours scraping ancient, disgusting wallpaper off our bathroom walls. Today I spent five. I'm probably three fourths of the way done, and my arms ache. But somehow, in the span of nine hours, my muscles have become more defined. It's much more satisfying than I could have imagined; I never really had much interest in upper arm ( Read more... )

So I'm not having the best of days. I got up early to meet the city inspection people, and I waited for an hour only to get a call from Mum saying "they're actually not coming until next month." The messenger bag I wanted to buy for the start of school is no longer available anywhere. And I'm bored out of my freaking mind. I really want school to ( Read more... )

Shock! Awe! Astonishment! Emily lives ( Read more... )
