Am sad that I have to wait until January 21 for Supernatural to come back on. *le sigh* It's epic sadness in my world. Leverage should also be returning around that time... but I want it to come faster. Although, at least one of my shows starts again in December! *g* Dog: The Bounty Hunter starts up again in about two weeks so yay!

Wow... it's been a long three weeks. Basically got kicked out of school because the guy in 'office of student success' is a dick. Office of student success, my ass. Apparently I was failing all three classes and there was no way I'd be able to raise any of my grades up to a passing grade by the end of semester. Gee, thanks for the vote of confidence.
Good god... that was a terrible call. Sorry, watching the Badger game at the same time I'm writing *grins sheepishly*
Halloween was pretty fun. I went out to Old Mill with my parents since my cousins were going to be there. I got to wear my costume and I got to use massive amounts of spray glitter, which was good fun. Although it didn't come out of my hair for three days... even with multiple showers :) Anywho... my crazy cousins dressed up as Elvis and Priscilla Presley. My older cousin was Elvis and the younger one... was wow. He had this dress on that reminded me of Minnie Mouse, a black wig, make--up (with eye liner and everything), fishnet stockings and high heels. I have a picture and I'd love to post it at some point but I have yet to figure out to get it off my phone and onto my computer.
Went to GB yesterday to check out the school there. I quite liked it, fairly small campus and all the education buildings are connected so when it's winter and the crazy weather is going on I don't have to wander about outside too much. Unfortunately, the dorms and food buildings are NOT connected... which means freezing in order to get food.
Am currently not feeling well, which sucks because I've been doing so good. Might have pink eye, which sucks even more. Ooh, also? Cut my leg with a chainsaw on Wednesday. Not the actual cutting part, but there's this metal plate by the end of the blade that's got these pointy things on it that you use to steady the saw on whatever it is you're cutting? Yeah, was jumping off the back of the tailgate with it and it hit my leg when I landed. Three nice cuts in my leg and a giant bruise there as well. It's lovely. Um, got to go to Kools last night (the local 'community center' as my dad calls it, it's a bar) and played pool with my sister and parents. 'Twas good fun.
Also, since I haven't been on here in a while, there is something I need to take care of before I leave this for today. November 12 was the birthday of two AWESOME people and though I don't converse with anyone on here enough to really have the right call them 'friend', they ARE awesome so

dark_princess17 , who is completely awesome by the way, and here it is:"This is Entertainment Weekly's Top 100 movies of the last 25 years list (up until 2008).
Bold the ones you have seen
Put an asterisk (*) after the movie title* if you really liked it.
Underline the ones you own
( movies this way! )
...though I'm surprised at some of these on this list - the ones that I have absolutely no desire to ever see, mainly 'cause they strike me as completely stupid.
But, oh well, I guess people like 'em. --Megan
Totally with you on that one, hun! I mean, really? SOUTH PARK? Come on, that's just a little ridiculous. Okay, it's really ridiculous. Although it is Entertainment Weekly so who knows what they were thinking when they came up with this one. Oh well...

i don't feel good. at all. and i was doing so good at not getting sick, too. and then one of my suite-mates had strep last week. and i don't know what i have but my throat hurts and is sore and i keep getting sinus headaches and ugh..... ick. no me gusta. and erin isn't coming this weekend, so sad face :( she's got exams at mad-town next week so she's studying.
but i do get to go home next weekend. yay! as long as it doesn't turn out to be like last weekend, when i had a hardcore emotional breakdown (which for me consists of crying and isolating myself for a few hours) it should be okay. i'm going back to the high school, visit my teachers and just reminisce.
yeah, i must be getting sick because i'm freezing right now in my room, usually i'm dying from the heat. so, off to fine my big, comfy hoodie and then curl up on my bed with a movie or Supernatural... either one.

so.... today sucked. out. loud. like, hardcore.
i had a soc110 (cultural anthropology) this morning... totally missed three-days worth of notes for it. also completely pulled random answers out of thin air for the short answer section. also? had a chem quiz today that i for some reason had no fucking clue about. and because of that? no calculator. we're studying stoichiometry. i did most of the math long-hand, like the mass of the elements and compounds in grams, but then when it came to doing all the math at the end of the problem? yeah, i guesstimated. work wasn't too terrible, thank god. other than the bio prep room being ungodly hot (like normal), there actually wasn't much to do except sit around and wait for the TSA and LB broth to finish mixing and for the autoclave to finish... autoclaving. and chris (my friend) is sick. i'm really hoping i didn't catch whatever he's got. because that would suck.

i also have a few stories for lord of the rings and pirates of the caribbean but those won't be posted until i do some major re-working on them. those were stories written when i first got into writing so they really kind of suck.
am also thinking of possibly writing an actual book. it was inspired when i came up with a new story idea for supernatural, where my main character is actually going to write a book about her life. i'm sure i'll have more for it once i get the fanfic going. so far i've gotten some good feedback on the part that i do have written. it's the ending of the book but it doesn't really give anything away, i've always been better at endings. i'll post it below, you can read it if you want.
( original story ending... )
and that's all i have for right now... might be back later.

well, in elementary school it was miss kaiser, my fifth grade teacher. she was awesome, we had pizza parties and holiday parties and since we were out in the trailer with one of the other fifth grade classes (it was temporary, they were remodeling the school), we had fun contests every so often. she taught us how to use checks by having us earn 'money' through little tasks we were assigned throughout the week and then when we had 'market days' we were able to buy passes that let us do certain things whenever we wanted to use them. there were passes that let you bring candy or soda into the classroom, you could sit at the teacher's desk for the day, teacher's assistant, free homework pass, free quiz pass, and my favorite was the jackie chan pass. jackie chan was our class hamster and you could have him sitting at your desk with you for the day. it was a lot of fun. after i 'graduated' and was heading on to middle school, she called me during the summer, because i was nervous about the transition to a new school.
in middle school it was mr. grubbs, hands down. mr. grubbs was my 6th grade language arts and reading teacher. he was a younger teacher, like miss kaiser, and he was just so energetic! we had this thing in 6th grade that because it was a new experience for us we would spend the last hour of the day on tuesdays and thursdays with our language arts teacher so i had him four hours on some days. he was such an amazing guy all around, not to mention some of us had crushes on him, lol. fridays he would always do a handstand the last 10 seconds of class, and we always tried to get him to go longer and longer to see how long he could hold one. it was great. and when i got sick and was in the hospital, he got all the kids in my class to make a 'get well soon' card and always pulled me aside at the end of the week to ask how i was doing. even before i had gotten real sick he noticed something wasn't quite right with me and always made sure to ask if i was okay. he was such a great teacher. and i know the school is huge and he sees hundreds upon hundreds of kids every year but i went back my freshman year of high school to visit (that's three years after i had last seen him) and he still recognized me. i changed a lot from 6th grade to freshman year.
my favorite teacher from high school...well i have two because i went to two different high schools. from PR it's miss linde, hands down. she was a younger teacher, again, so i think she still remembered what it was like to be in high school and be a freshman. she was my english teacher, which is one of my favorite subjects because i ADORE reading and writing. we had a poetry session, which didn't really turn out the way i liked because around the time we started it i found out we were moving, so most of it was pretty dark. but i loved the way she had us do book reports and the way she taught through the books we read, romeo and juliet especially. a few of the other times my english teachers did shakespeare they read a paragraph and then had us translate it into modern english. it was really slow and teadious. miss linde did kind of a word search, where she had the definitions and we had to fine the words, or she'd do crosswords the same way and then read through the passages.
from AHS, it's mr. blood. no contest whatsoever. blood was my homeroom teacher, which means i saw him every morning for three years in a row. he was another fun-loving, down to earth, just an all around awesome person. he was a bit odd, but i think that's what i liked most about him. he really loved getting to know his students and treated them as equals if they earned that from him. i felt very comfortable with him and i knew i could go to him for any reason and he'd try to help out if he could, or find a way to get me help. some people didn't like the way he taught but i thought it was so much fun. we'd start out on topic and then something would come up where he veered off-course for a little bit but then came back. i liked it because then i could associate whatever we were learning with whatever little tangent he had gone on about. he was also in charge of drama club, so i spent a hell of a lot more time with him than any of the other kids in the school. we still keep in touch now that i'm at school and i visit him whenever i'm in town. he takes an honest interest in what his students are doing and offers advice freely, letting you take it and do whatever you like with it. he's a real mentor for me, and i'll never be able to fully express how grateful i am for his enthusiasm through my years at AHS. he made an imprint on my life and i will forever be thankful to whatever powers that be that he so happened to have my section of my class for homeroom.

hmm... let's think about that for a second...
giving up privacy is so not a fair price to pay for being famous! it's not even close to fair, not to mention against the constitution! most celebrities are just doing what they love, acting and singing and it's unfortunate for them that people want to know the most intimate details about them. people who make their own tv shows give up that privacy right all on their own, but there are those who just want to do what they do and be left alone.
i recently heard on the radio about some paparazzi climbing over the wall of george clooney's house in italy and snapped some pictures of a 13 YEAR OLD GIRL CHANGING IN HER BEDROOM!! it's absurd that society has come to this that people will actually sneak into someone's yard and take disgusting pictures like that just to appease the american public. it's disgusting and i feel terrible for the stars that this happens to.
so yes, some parts of celebrities lives should be off limits to the public, we all have our secrets and we all want certain parts of our lives kept a secret. even though they are celebrities they're still human!! and no, giving up one's privacy is NOT a fair price to pay for being famous.

as you saw earlier i made my to do list which i managed to accomplish completely. folded the laundry, ate some lunch, got directions to the campground, bought the ice and got myself lost out in the boonies while trying to find the campground. actually ended up driving right past the entrance twice. yay me.
( after i FINALLY found the stupid road... )

3. get directions to boulder lake
4. buy ice (or Erin will kill me)
5. attempt to not get lost while driving to boulder lake.
bestest friends are camping this weekend and alas i could not go. stupid work. seriously, who in their right mind would start printing papers at 4 in the morning and then call the stuffers (i.e. the people who manually put those paper ads in with the paper) at 4:30? want to murder them.... anywho, so am so lacking in the sleep department and will need massive amounts of caffene or sugar to keep me going today.
also must remember to reaquaint myself with the sky high 'verse. am stuck on story because i can not for the life of me remember what happens between will's first day of school and the fight with warren in the cafeteria. is driving me insane. must actually FINISH covenant story.. has been far too long in coming. stupid love scenes...

will be going back to school in approximately 42 days... so not looking forward to that one. in lieu of my EPIC!!fail last semester, class schedule for next year is going to seriously suck out loud. i'm tecnically supposed to be on academic probation, which means i can only take 12 credits (3 classes) until i raise my GPA about .25 points. so not helping my get to hawaii. in order to get to hawaii by my junior year (this coming school year will be my sophomore year in college), along with the classes i failed last year, i'd need to have 5 classes in the fall and 6 in the spring. will be v. interesting once i talk things over with my advisor.
my friend from cali visited me over the weekend. did not do much but was v. nice to see her. have known her since forever because our dads grew up together. gotta love small towns...
finally got a couple of movies i've been looking into getting:

--a knight's tale (who doesn't love heath ledger?),
--the covenant (hot boys in speedos...what's not to love?)
v. upset that wally-world didn't have 10 things i hate about you... was looking forward to having that on DVD...
am hoping to see ice age again tonight if i can talk my mom into it... i've been begging her for about a week and a half. have already seen it twice. love it.
also trying to decide if i want to go see HP in theaters. i know i'll see it eventually, but do not know whether i want to spend the six bucks to see it in theaters or wait until i can rent it for only $1.
am super excited for Big Bang Theory tonight!! also, Sky High is going to be playing on Disney Channel tonight!! v. excited for that.
also want to say HAPPY (early) BIRTHDAY tocyndrarae !!! eat lots of goodies and don't work yourself too hard, m'dear!!

and my chicago white sox lost. i grew up in chicago (hence my love of *most* things illinois/chicago) and since they're in the AL i figure it's okay for me to like them.
cubs lost, which is a good thing but the cards won, which is not a good thing. we're only a game and a half in front of cincinnati and st. louis.
am also devastaed at the loss of rickie weeks. i can only imagine the kind of scores we'd be getting if he was still playing. not that i don't love the rest of the guys, don't get me wrong. thanks fo FSN last night i found out that rickie is one of the leaders in HR's so far this season. and considering he's been out for a few weeks already and is still one of the top hitters, that's saying something. it's a shame, he would have had an amazing season if he hadn't gotten hurt.
