OK, I'm super duper bored (and done my homework, yay!) and so I'm going to do that music meme where I post a line from 20 of my favorite songs and then you guys all guess which songs they are, with NO googling allowed!! Cheaterpants suck. I should make that into a shirt and then give it to Mons, he uses the word Cheaterpants all the time. Anyways, so they suck. You can listen to the song if you think you have it to make sure...you get the idea.
1. "My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me, so won't you kill me so I die happy?" Hands Down - Dashboard Confessional Guessed by ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) butterfly_kate
2. "And I cannot guess what we'll discover
When we turn the dirt with our palms cupped like shovels
But I know our filthy hands can wash one another’s
And not one speck will remain" Soul Meets Body - Death Cab for Cutie Guessed by monotono
3. "Oh ladies, pleasant and demure
Sallow-cheeked and sure
I can see your undies"
4. "Frontin' niggas give me hee-bee-gee-bees

I'll be Nina Simone
And defacating on your microphone."
5. "Ouch I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found" Breathe Me - Sia Guessed by senatorsfan
6. "Daydreaming,
Bed scenes in... the corner cafe
And then I'm left in bits recovering tectonic... tremblings
You get me every time."
7. "And up above us all
Leaning into sky
Our golden business boy
Will watch the North End die
And sing, “I love this town”
Then let his arcing wrecking ball proclaim
I hate Winnipeg" One Great City! - The Weakerthans Guessed bytimemachine
8. "The glove box light shines bright enough to see.
You read the map like you were reading poetry."
9. "There was milk and toast and honey and a bowl of oranges, too
And the sun poured in like butterscotch and stuck to all my senses"
10. "You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue" Your Song - Elton John/Moulin Rouge Soundtrack Guessed by both hedgie125and timemachine

with all the fuck, fuck, fuckin' around."
12. "When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive " Iris - Goo Goo Dolls Guessed by monotono
13. "O Fortuna velut luna statu variabilis, semper crescis aut decrescis; vita detestabilis nunc obdurat et tunc curat ludo mentis aciem, egestatem, potestatem dissolvit ut glaciem." O Fortuna - Orff Guessed by both (again) hedgie125and timemachine
14. "I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles
In our eyes are mirror images and when
We kiss they're perfectly aligned" Such Great Heights - The Postal Service Guessed by therevsoup
15. "That stuff on the radio blocked the transmission
Same beat, same lyrics, same song
I listen to my old school tapes to get it on"
I said "word up girl? i know what you mean
It seems we're all trapped in the glitz and the gleam
The truth's just hidden for now, so don't sweat it
So here's a cassette" and then i jetted!"
16. "Too bad but it's the life you lead
You're so ahead of yourself
That you forgot what you need"
17. "Well I don't really care what people say
I don't really watch what dem want do
Still I got to stick to my girls like glue" Like GLue - Sean Paul Guessed by monotono
18. "God speed all the bakers at dawn may they all cut their thumbs,
And bleed into their buns 'till they melt away." New Slang - The Shins Guessed by therevsoup
19. "Well I can't stop talking for fear of listening to unwelcome sound
and you haven't called me in weeks and honestly it's bringing me down"
20. "The sidewalks are watching me think about you,
sparkled with broken glass." Left and Leaving - The Weakerthans Guessed by tycho
Honestly I think I made them too easy (if you know the songs they'll be quite obvious methinks) oh well, we'll see if any of you like the same music as I do, or not!! :P I tried to get a very wide sample of my tastes, so there's a bit of everything! Ok Go! (Bad music reference intended... :P)

I JUST finished Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I loved loved loved loved it! I wanted to write a long and emotionally detailed post about it, but I haven't digested it all yet. I can't believe it's the end!!! I need to go back and read them all over again, like, right now! Seriously. I really have nothing else that I can coherently talk about it right now, but I adored every single minute of this book, it was absolutely my favorite of the series (although that could be because I haven't read some of them in years and my mind is fuzzy on the details). I was in the middle of reading Suite Francais when Harry Potter was released (and you better believe I went there at midnight), but I don't think I'll be able to go back to reading other novels for a little bit, I have to let this one percolate.
No one look at the comments if they don't want spoilers, since I avoided any major plot points and things I am dying to say about how I reacted in the post. On that note, what did you all think!!!??

What are your favorite and least favorite words? Any reasons why?
My favorite two words are immaculate, and resplendant. Immaculate because I think it is the most pure and beautiful word in existence, and it conjures up so many wonderful, white, soft images for me. Resplendant, because when I was younger, a girl who I "fell in love with", more as a friend (but it was instantaneous and life-altering) wrote me a poem where she referred to me as a resplendant butterfly. It melted my heart, and it felt like she was the same person as me...like love at first sight, but better than romantic love, because it was a friendship and infatuation all combined into one. I don't believe I have a least favorite word, because I think that all words have value.

I apologize for the friend's page onslaught, but I'm procrastinating from applying on jobs for a bit. Instead of that, I wrote a series of season poems in the fridge magnets. here they are, and keep in mind, there was an extremely slim selection of words!!!
Season Cycle
day. month. year.
i.
she will feel every storm
as a grey squirrel &
a cold buttery pumpkin cry
always so serious
he would remember their full love
ii.
see dark ice sing between night snow
that is almost light.
warm winter shell of a child
live. spin. fly. snap.
only they never grow
iii.
blue sky shines beneath flower petals
while womanly fire sun
makes a morning dream bloom
iv.
if we melt popsicle colors
into shivering sizzling rain
another summer cloud
could dance through you
Can you guys decide which pertains to which season?? :) I had fun, I should make random magnet poetry more often!

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?
So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's play
ing 5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool...
Opening Credits: “Wake Up” – Alanis Morrisette “'Cause it's easy not to, So much easier not to, And what goes around never comes around to you, To you to you to you to you to you...There's no love no money no thrill anymore. There's an apprehensive naked little trembling boy with his head in his hands, and there's an underestimated and impatient little girl raising her hand.”
Waking Up: “Universally Speaking” – Red Hot Chili Peppers “Nothing better the feeling is so fine, simply put I saw your love stream flow…universally speaking I win in the long run”
First Day of School: “Walkin’ on the Sun” – Smashmouth “It's just like any fad it retracts before impact, and just like fashion is a passion for the with it and hip. If ya got the goods, they'll come and buy it just to stay in the clique.”
Falling in Love: “We Laugh Indoors” – Death Cab for Cutie “So I breed thicker skin and let my lustrous coat fill in and I'll never admit I loved you Guinevere.”
Fight Song: “32 Flavors” – Ani DiFranco “Squint your eyes and look closer, I’m not between you and your ambition, I am a poster with no poster, I am 32 flavors and then some…Someday you’re gonna get hungry and eat most of the words you just said.”

I'm so happy. So so so so so so happy. I'm not planning on explaining why because I barely even get it. The jist is that I haven't smiled this much in longer than I can remember, and nothing and no one has made me feel this full of happiness, excitement and feel this content in ages. I'm exhausted, and can barely type, but this had to be recorded as the night that I smiled more than I have in months. I love everything, and everyone. Thank you for making me so happy and so smiley!! xoxoxox

Hehehe, cutest urge EVAR!
My sister: What's it like outside?
Me: It's nice, I just went out in my sweater and vest and these pants and I was fine.
Sister: Your sweater-vest??? You don't have a sweater-vest!! Oh....
Me: Yeah, cause that would be the ultimate combination of nerd and geek ever, sweater-vest and Final Fantasy!
Sister: I'm asking because I just had the urge to.. *YAWN*
Me: The urge to what?
Sister: I just had the urge to go out and get a helium ballon and sing.
Me: That's the cutest urge EVER!!!! We should totally go out and do that!
Sister: *holding up her hand in a fake microphone and ballon* "At first I was afraid...I was petrified!! Dunno how I ever lived without you by my side...." *shuffles away*
She rocks so much. hehe, also, she woke up this morning and stumbled into the living room and whispered in a creepy quiet voice "I hate the smell of our fridge..." hahaha. AWESOME. I love her.

OK, so done the research for my essay (writing up notes and such) and now I just have to write the essay.... It's due tomorrow, and I'm confidant that I'll get it DONE!!!
Now we're watching the Lone Wolf and Cub movies, seriously little Diagaro rocks!!!!
This is going to be short, but can any of my new (or old) LJ friends tell me where I might find cute asian things? Like bento boxes (I'm going to try to try to make bento lunches sometime), nice cutesy chopsticks with cases, paper, accessories (like for phones or pens, or pencil cases, that kind of thing)...no really clothing, or anything too expensive like a bag or anything (unless you know of really CUTE ones, then I'd take a look). I like the little San-x character type things, Totoro, Kiki's delivery service, all of Miazaki's films (dunno if that's spelled right but no time to make sure) although that's not really cutesy or kawaii, just awesome. Thanks!
Anyways, off to writewritewrite on my essay and make sure I get enough done before I get really super duper tired!!! Oh, and look at the best Legally Blonde icon I found! Yessss!! Seriously my favorite chick-flick movie of all time. Except for Breakfast at Tiffany's but I don't think that counts because it's classic...only the silly funny ones count. Ok, BYE!

| The Movie Of Your Life Is A Cult Classic | 
Quirky, offbeat, and even a little campy - your life appeals to a select few.
But if someone's obsessed with you, look out! Your fans are downright freaky.
Your best movie matches: Office Space, Showgirls, The Big Lebowski |
Awesome!!! So true. Although I never would have classified Office Space as a cult movie...and why on earth isn't Rocky Horror there, hello??!! Pure Cult Classic! (funny, because I think way back at the beginning of this LJ I did one of these that was "Which character would you be in The Big Lebowski?" I was Maude, and it was painfully fitting :)

I was going to post a stupid survey, but then I figured no, I wouldn't even be interested in knowing all that stuff about me, so I won't subject everyone else to it!
I found this interesting though, the origins of the Romance Languages. I never quite knew what made those particular languages romantic (although they are pretty), but it turns out it's all about the language family tree orientation. All those languages (French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian) are derived from Proper (or Vulgar) Latin, which was used in the ROMAN Empire...thus the Romance Languages. Anyways, here (wikipedia really does have everything!!): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romance_languages
Blech, I was going to say more, but now I want to go. Maybe I'll just post this, and edit it and add to it, if I feel like it. Or something. Whatever. Goodnight for now.

Everyone should check this out. Homophobia is the new racism in our society, and since GLBT rights and promoting equality and love is something that has ALWAYS been a huge part of my life I wanted to post this in my journal. More people need to read things like this. There is nothing in the world that makes me more pissed off than homophobic discriminating assholes.

I'm so sick. My head feels like it's in a vice-grip and my nose won't stop running, it's starting to hurt from blowing it all the time...I need those super super soft tissues with the lotion built in. Blech. I have a sinus headache, and my throat hurts. AND I have a test tomorrow. Sweet. Thank you little bacteria for infesting my body at the most inoppourtune moment imaginable.
I should go eat something healthy and rich in vitamins, but I have no desire to get off this couch. Someone come take care of meeeeee.... Wah... Okay, going to go back to studying, I'll survive, even if I'm pissed about it.
On the up side I got tons done today, I got a bunch of textbooks I needed, and got the boyfriend his ridiculously overpriced Valentine's Day gift, but I think it was the perfect gift, so it was worth it. Almost $60 for one book!!!! Oh well, I'd like it if he spent that much on me to get something ostentatiously nice that I would never buy for myself, so it's all good.
OK, I'm sure I'll want to come back and whine later on, but for now, off to learn slides for Modern Architecture!!

Alanis Morissette, clearly |

Hello all... So I'm in the best mood today. I'm super tired, and my head feels hazy because I was up late and then woke up really early, but I think it's going to be a gooood day. I had a good night last night, so I woke up on the right side of the bed I guess :P
On a completely unrelated note though, many many guys are not very nice!!! I'm really lucky that most of the guys I know are sweet. Or well...all of them really, all the guys I know pretty well are very nice. But man, there are some conceited and brash ones out there....
I'm going to go see Pan's Labyrinth tonight! yay! I'm being treated to it too, which is AWESOME!
Right now I'm drinking homemade passionfruit bubbletea and going to go out for coffee later, and I just stood up for myself to a brash and full of himself guy on the internet :P Oh yes...it's going to be a good day!! That guy reminded me of the Alanis Morissette song where she sings "Dear Narcissus boy, I know you've never really apologized for anything, I know you've never really listened to a woman....and then he talk of healthiness, then he talk of connectedness, and then he talk of resolving this leaves you running for the door....Dear egotist boy...you've never stayed with anyone longer than ten minutes, you never understand anyone showing resistance...you go back to your friends who will lick your ass, you go back to the center of your universe" Some guys really need to hear this kind of stuff....But no offense to all you totally awesome guys out there! I'm not a cynical bitch, just sometimes people are RUDE. I don't like rude people. Or brash people. This people who run around being so self involved that they can't take a single minute to say thank you, be polite, be courteous and not try to get everything done so fast that they forget that they're running over everyone in their path in the process.
Yay for happy days! Going to go putter around. Woo hoo!!

I like my life right at this moment. Right NOW. Right this second I feel good. I can taste it. I'm worried too, and stressed, and sad, and a whole bunch of uncool emotions right below the surface, and in the background. But right now, above all, I'm happy. And I think that it's all real. This is all genuine, which, who thought that any of this could happen, but it did....

Death Cab for Cutie - We Looked Like Giants |
] |
Hello people. I've had the nicest bout of materialism. Spending too much money, but it's ok, because I'm so pleased with my purchases.
OK, so basically jeans shopping is one of the most traumatic and stressful things for me (or most of my friends) to shop for. That and bras. Shopping for shirts, sometimes shoes, panties, anything else, totally fine. But jeans, ugh, I hate shopping for them. So I read in NOW magazine about the "Best Of" of food, shopping etc etc, and they had the best jeans shop, and so I decided to try it out. So we walked in and the jeans are all designer jeans, like $220 and $250, but I decided to keep my options open and try some on. Finally the very nice and helpful saleswomen handed me some HALF OFF Seven for all mankind jeans, and I tried them on, and they fit perfectly!!!! They weren't ugly and fit in the waist and not the ass or leg, or fitting in the ass and leg but too tight in the waist. they were PERFECT!!! I've never had such happy, good fitting jeans, that made me happy and weren't totally depressing to shop for!! So I bought them. They were expensive, but I'm justifying it by the fact that they're good quality, so they'll last for years and not rip or get all ugly like most jeans I get, and when I think about it with cost per wear, it balances out with all the jeans I've owned and hated so much so I never wore them. So YAY!!!
I had the most awesome conversation last night, I've been soooo happy all day. I feel good.
I need to get caught up on schoolwork, and get my act together for the summer.
Also, we are going to have a girly night tonight, with sleepovers, makeup, nails, movies, the whole works. hehe, it should be kickass, or at least entertaining.
Oh the other big spending was I bought expensive shampoo and conditioner from LUSH, I LOOOOVE their hair stuff, it makes my air so soft and smell nice. It's pricy, but I figure that the bottles will last me for a year now, and so it's worth it. Also....new shoes.....so now I need to spend NO more money. Which is ok, because before now I hadn't shopped for new stuff for AGES. Like....a year and half practically. Or longer.
Anyways, that's all for now, just wanted to make myself look shallow and uninteresting, blah blah blah.... Oh my god, like totally, whatever!!

Oh yeah....... I was a little worried :P
The Expatriate
Achtung! You are 23% brainwashworthy, 9% antitolerant, and 23% blindly patriotic |
Congratulations! You are not susceptible to brainwashing, your values and cares extend beyond the borders of your own country, and your Blind Patriotism does not reach unhealthy levels. If you had been German in the 30s, you would've left the country.
One bad scenario -- as I hypothetically project you back in time -- is that you just wouldn't have cared one way or the other about Nazism. Maybe politics don't interest you enough. But the fact that you took this test means they probably do. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt.
Did you know that many of the smartest Germans departed prior to the beginning of World War II, because they knew some evil shit was brewing? Brain Drain. Many of them were scientists. It is very possible you could have been one of them.
Conclusion: born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would not have been a Nazi.
The Would You Have Been A Nazi? Test
- it rules - |
 |
My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:
|
You scored higher than 99% on brainwashworthy |
|
You scored higher than 99% on antitolerant |
|
You scored higher than 99% on patriotic |
