-Doing very well in my class. 107% grade. I have a weird feeling that I'm "the cool one" in this class and other students are slightly in awe of my always having thoughts and speaking them. Which is very, very weird ( Read more... )

Wants: Moon jewelry. They glow! I love things that glow! I love things that are moons! Of course I need more jewelry like the desert needs more sand so I'm not going to buy any ( Read more... )

So. This book. It looks hilarious and amazing and I need to own it. But it's not for sale. Anywhere. And trust me I know how to search for books. Then one turns up on amazon, yay! I ordered it. Then today I get an email, 'this book was damaged, would you like a different book or a refund?' Waaaaah! Do you people know how hard that book is ( Read more... )

So I found this book identification message board and spent two evenings on it. I answered maybe twenty posts, which made me quite impressed with myself, but no homework or writing got done ( Read more... )

Someone thought Jupiter Ascending had an actual theme and meaning, and it gives me a sad because I wanted to do a noveliztion of a girl-meets-boy-in-space story, not a story with deep ethical dimensions! And I'm not really sure those deep ethical dimensions were really meant to be there. I saw the aliens' people-harvestin' as the writers needing ( Read more... )

Also interesting to me as a person with a mental illness. We now have to write a paper about a journal article with ( Read more... )

1) usually our buyers are nice folks. They're polite, friendly, and happy to chat with me about books. But of late two new buyers have started coming to my work, and they are not such pleasant people. One lady is the black sheep of local bookbuyers; NOBODY likes her, everybody has a story about how she takes books out of people's carts, gets in ( Read more... )

The thing with Winx is that the girls have basically the same face, so people erase the hair and clothes from screencaps and make bases. Then they make brushes of the textures of the clothes and the shapes of the skirts. Some people sell costume or wing designs that you can buy for deviantart points. Some people sell whole characters ( Read more... )

I hardly ever see movies in the theater; they're noisy and I can't draw while watching, and in general a dvd at home is more my speed. But this means a theater movie is a treat! Today I went with some friends to see Jupiter Ascending, which caught my inner Sailormoon fan's eye with the "normal girl becomes a space princess" theme. What caught my ( Read more... )

So every so often I find a Chick tract at work. Chick tracts are from the outer fringes, you go past Christianity and out the other side into I-don't-even-know. They're also full of lies and hate, and are really quite vile but somehow also funny. I have joked that if I even met the person leaving the tracts I'd request Dark Dungeons and give it ( Read more... )
