Y'know, this new journal/comm flagging system is lovely.  I really do like it, honest ( Read more... )

Ok, Winter Thing has a history (and by history I mean the one year we've previously attended, now two in lieu of last weekend) of being amazingly fun.  Even more so now that I've learned how to play Rock, Papper, Scissors in Japanese (missionaries are amazing) and have crashed head-first into the inflatable bumper wall on the tubing tracks at White ( Read more... )

Good Lord, why didn't anyone tell me Idina Menzel released a solo album?  D=  I just found it by some fluke on a MySpace Music search, 'n gah...

It's official.  I'm an Idina Menzel fangirl.  Egads that woman can sing.  <3

(The album's called I Stand and was apparently released Jan. 29.  And I totally have to get it.  <3)
[EDIT]  And sheesh.  Could " ( Read more... )

Ok, so I have a confession to make.  I don't like John Steinbeck.  If you've known me since middle school, you prob'ly already knew this.  I've been told he's a fantastic author 'n that The Grapes of Wrath is amazing, but I'm sorry: The Red Pony ruined him for me.  No one in my class liked it - I didn't even like it, 'n I normally like just about ( Read more... )

Ok, so today mostly sucked.  Mum's back in the hospital with what the Hulk originally said was cellulitus, but the ER doc thinks is an infection that's running rabid in her blood (she's been sick since Friday, all of it culminating in this leg mess).  I'm blaming the prison, and ho'shiz I want her to find a new job.  Seriously - every year she's ( Read more... )

What?  No, I did not just steal that from Girl on the Moon...

But I find it appropriate, in a way.  So the rest of me week will be a'sploding with the scramble to finish my college stuff.  Cedarville sent me a thing saying I'm eligible for the leadership scholarship (if I get my app for it in by Tuesday - but it can cover up to 75% of tutition).  ( Read more... )

Heehee...completely ignoring my subject but not really: Granma gave everybody giftcards to Kohls.  Mum and I went this morning (for their 'hay we're opening at 6AM' sale), and I feel perfectly silly that the coolest thing I got was this pair of headphones with plush penguins on them (they double as headphones AND earmuffs!).  xD  They're so dorky, ( Read more... )

Ok guys, seriously - wtf?  This is just a total 'WTF?' moment.  xD ( Read more... )

It's a rant.  So yeah, I'm gonna sound unreasonable 'n whiney 'n the like.  But it's my journal 'n I'm allowed to rant like that.

I've ranted about this before, but I need to rant about it again.  'Cause ranting is cathartic 'n all that.

One of my biggest pet peeves: taking songs that were written for/about/to God and using them for something else.  ( Read more... )
