No Laptop, No Smokes, No Love

So I have no laptop b/c it broke and I'm stuck checking all my stuff on my sister's desktop, hopefully if I keep up the puppy eyes and the whining I can get a new laptop somtime in late june-mid july.

I also have no smokes, seeing as my dad found them when he went to go and get the dishes out of my room and so I now have to quit. But on the bright side of the asshole of life I didn't get in trouble, he said this was a freebie and if I did it again I'd actually get a punishment besides having to chew nicorette gum.

Good news is that TruBlood 2nd season starts in about 36 minutes.

I've got a plot bunny bouncing around in my head it's a little Ted/Vic HP oneshot/twoshot possibly, and then the zombie! regulus thing I want to work on, and I started chapter 3 of Blister Plagues.

And about the smoking thing I was stuck smoking crappy indian reservation smokes for like a month and I had an extra ten bucks around (a pack is $8.25 now!) so I bought my Marlboro Lights and I had smoked maybe 3 and now I can't have them. I told my dad to give me the $8 since he's going to smoke my smokes now but he just laughed and made fun of me.

At least I'm not buried in the backyard, right?

more school bull

Only 3 more days of school left.

Tuesday is my nursing graduation.

Thursday I'm off.

Friday I have my Latin final, so I gotta relearn my vocab and my declensions.

Monday I have english and it's ALL about Macbeth, argh I mean it's easy but jeez....my teacher is just winging it, really he's just "fuck it final on Macbeth, 10 questions and no real essay."

Then I get a week off.

Tuesday after it US regents.

Another week off and my Math regents, which I need to cram for and hopefully won't fail.

I'm gonna get all dressed up today and look fine and wonderful and all that jazz, maybe movies today no idea what me and the sis and the mom and the (maybe) grams are gonna see, maybe angel and demons since my grams loved the first one.

finals and plot-bunnies

I just finished my argument essay on forced docility a few hours ago and I ran out of cigarettes and half-finished butts, but I did manage to fill up my favorite lighter and I have the plot-bunny bouncy around in my head breaking furniture and coloring on the walls.

I'll write that up later.

I've only got three days of school this week and then I get thrusday of and friday I have my Latin final. Next monday is my english final. Then the tuesday after that is my U.S. regents and a week after that is my math regents and then I'm done. I gradate from my nursing class on the 12, I think tomorrow is the bbq for SkillsUSA members and I think that's all I've got going on.

Jeez though I need a smoke and a massage.

Prom, funny happenings, etc. aka rendevous at the gas station

I just had prom and it was quite lackluster except for the turtle at the aquarium and me of course. I was lost in a sea of ugly tasteless dress and the DJ had podiums set up next to it that badly dressed girls took to dancing all skanky like atop.

Then there was this boy who as me and my friend are walking turns around and in my face shouts "YOU'RE A HO!" and then he covers his mouth and looks like he shit his pants and goes "I thought you were so and so I'm so embaressed." and to be honest it was hilarious and I not ethat I do sound like the girl he thought I was and he meant it as a joke. And then he says "I thought you were going to hit me for a second." and I had this empty glass in my hand and I go "Not in this dress but I really was about to deck you." but by the time I finished my sentence he had booked it to the boy's bathroom.

It was great really.

And my mom's friend is making a scrap book for me and oh 43! pins in my hair and I'm tired and this is full of typos and oh nother thing about another boy...

Before my mom picked me up to go get ready I was smoking my cigg b/t the cars in the parking lot with my friends before they went to get on their boces bus that I wasn't going on b/c I was ditching b/c I had already stayed for the mandatory 5 periods on prom day...so anywhoosets this senior at my school who I see smoking when I smoke or afterschool or wherever sits b/t the cars with his 2 friends and me and my friend and he's giving me the eye and I mention I leaving to go to prom and yadda yadda yadda I show him pictues of my dress and he's flirting and I like the attention.

So fast forward thru prom and thru getting undressed and back into my comfy clothes at my grams and washing my make-up off and on the drive home we get gas, guess who's at the gas station at 12am pumping gas for his car.

The Kid!

And I'm all girly and he sees me and asks how the prom was and is flirting and I tell him about the "you're a ho!" thing and he laughs cause the guy who said it was is actually one of his buds and then as I go inside with my mom to pay for gas she goes "you know his girlfriend was int he car right?" and I'm like *faceplam* (I actually did an actually facepalm to myself)

But all fun stuff and I'm sleepy and wanna smoke my ciggs and eat my slimjims and pretzels and fad out and sack out.

Oh and it's my birthday tomorrow, too.

Good times, and it's all fun stuff.

ps--> I find my icon very appropiate because thats just about the "you're a ho!" kid did it. <3

Five things that are lewd and angsty

So I'm doing a challenge for HP 5 things community and I'd link to it but I'm lazy. Anyway it's angsty and lewd and I love it so far and it's going to be really long which is ridiculous since usually 5 things fics are short-ish and jeez I procrastinating on my essays and US homework and I gave both dogs a bath and I thought someone stole my ciggs at school and then I found them under my sheets when I got home and I'm like "I'm a silly gopher."

And I still hate math.
Argh. Smack my ass why doncha math homework.
Oh yeah...you've been there done that you little fucker.

10 May 2009 @ 08:12 pm

So I have 3 essays to get done argh...

One on Polls
One on Disease as a Metaphor
And my argument essay on "Human Docility as an Epidemic"

I have to find out what my teacher is actually countng this quarter so I know if I really have to write all three. I know I'll have to do the argument but I'm hoping e just gave the other two as busy assignments.

My AP english teacher is the type of man to give 20 essays and only grade 4 b/c he doesn't ever read half of what we give him and only about 4 of us smart kids have picked up on that.

I have like 15 days left of school, thank gawd!

I have prom on friday and I must find out if I can skip going to boces and still be allowed in since school's these day require you to go to school the day of prom so they know you're not out all day drinking and fucking and all that, but I'm a wondering if that means I have to be at boces too. Hmmmmm gotta find out b/c if I don't have to go I only have to be in school until 11:30am and then bounce and watch the Tudors at my grams and hang out until my hair appointment, that would be fantastic.

On a happy note, I finished almost all my math that I could possibly do without my calculator.

All I need is a 66 this quarter and I never have to look a sin equations for the rest of my life, and while a 66 may seem easy to some of you take into account that I managed to get a 27 two tests ago. Even I know that means I deserve to scoop shit for the rest of my life.

Dear Math, Go get lost and die in a ditch after falling into a vat of hot oil, kay thanks, hugs and kisses -Me.

"Pop like a robot..."

So I finished the Night Angel trilogy and it was fantastic best thing I've read in a long while in terms of entertainment value.

I also did some math, went over my nursing skills booklet, and made notes in my AP book on the document essay which I don't think we'll have to write in class because it's one about sports and my teacher is anti-sports unless that "sport" is chess, hah! In class joke that I could make a whole post about right there.

In terms of my nursing test on friday let's just hope I get Range of Motion, Height, and let's see...maybe either Pulse and Respiration or Occupied bed as my three skills, or like handwashing gah I'd be in heaven really. I don't want hair and nail care and I don't want waist restraint because I'll forget how whether to wrap the straps or cross them first.

This whole week has been testing so far, today I had half of my NET test and the other half we're doing tomorrow or rather today since we are now in the AM hours and then thursday I have my certification written test and friday I have the pratical skill thing mentioned above.

And then I guess my class is really finished and I'm done...damn things went really fast this year there's only like 20 days left to the quarter and then Regents' (Math, US) and finals (English essay and if it's on books I'm going to use Lolita and Dorian Grey, Latin quiz because my teacher is lazy and won't make a real test so like it's all vocab and 10-20 sentences, and that's it for me.)

I also have some fun quotes:

Latin:
Ms. S --> "You have to copy up to lesson 12 vocab for your midterm...OH look! Heather's face is like 'Sometime's in my mind I kill you.'"
----
On the board --> 'As adjectives are to nouns, adverbs are to verbs'
Ms. S --> "There's a zen thing for you on the board, you know if you want any suggestions for a tattoo uohmmmmmmmmm."
---
Ms. S --> "Hey, we used to play rugby together let's hurt each other...I hate teeth too."
---

AP English:
Kid with red hair --> "You're a nasty old man."
Mr. S --> "Doing anything to make your day."
----

Gayle:
Gayle --> "I just wanna lick the fuck outta his teeth, lick em' out of his head, lick em so he can't sing anymore." (about the music teacher whose teeth Gayle wants to...eat...or lick...I don't know anything except that I love Gayle's cookeyness.

I've got my NET test today, basically it's my entrance exam for LPN next year, it's not hard but yeah. Anyway I realize that all I need to pass math is a 66 as my average for this quarter, jeez I loathe math lots and I'll pass the regents but damn I don't want to take the class again. For a smart girl in everything else math sucks my soul away down a drain full of numers and cos equations.

"You can't fight werewolves in those shoes..."

So I got my shoes and my purse and my undergarments for prom.
We still have to get the back tailored tough b/c while I can hold the 1st layer of my train I can't with my 2nd layer and I keep stepping on it.
I saw some really cute stuff at Victoria's Secret and it makes me want to get them and then in the same thought think to myself 'Who will I wear this for besides myself?' I mean reall though I'm focusing on school and that's about it right now so I must wait until I get a car and an apartment and a job before I can deal w/ the boys with get asses out there.

Anywhosets, a fun day and I'm tired and get to miss thurs and fri at school for my nursing tests that start at 8am, so that's good too.

Credit where credit is due...

As you might notice, new and wonderfully stunning new journal layout and all credit goes to

tirwen_star03 who in my opinion is amazingly talented with layout design. Credit also goes to

mintyapple a cute little community that's large and full of journal layouts made by people who know their stuff when it comes to coding and all that stuff that can make your head explode and your eyes cry tears of angry desperation.

Anyway check out the community if you're in need of a new journal look, they've got 1200+ entries devoted just to uploaded really well-made stuff, and the best part is all of the instructions are straightforward and wonderfully easy for those of less adept at layout design to follow.

So I changed my layout for the sake of having it be easier for people to read my stories when I post on communities with entries that link back to my journal. I'm not sure if I like it so much, there was another that I was liking a lot so I might change to that later on the only problem with it is that it makes the range of wide the posting space smaller and squishes text into bigger blocks.

On the fun side of things I get to have a mental health day tomorrow since I no longer really have to be at boces every day since we're done with internship my dad agreed to let me stay home if I paint the patio, which is a sweet deal so I can stays ups as longs as I wants tonightsssssssss. It's all very exciting really. I might even get to play some xbox and read more of "Shadow's Edge" by Brent Weeks, it's the second book in the trilogy and it's amazing, really if you like fantasy and assassins and snark and organizations of a shadowy caliber and really really well written violent stuffs it's really the book for you, oh and there's magic and street urchins and really bad children in it so it's good.

The grittiness in it is great, some real visceral stuff that makes you cringe, and nobody every really dies in nice ways and as a girl reading it I think to myself that it is really not the place to be a girl if you're in one of the books. But fanastic really, go buy it.

I'm done with the 2nd chapter of Blister Plagues, I decided not to add anymore to it but rather to send it off to my lovely and "keeps-me-in-my-place-when-I-try-using-big-vocabulary-words-together-that-shouldn't-go-together-by-telling-me-I'm-being-a-wiseass" beta whose also fantastic and devilshly witty at all times, so I might post tonight I don't really know as of right now it all depends. Yeah but it's pretty long for a chapter it's around 13,000-14,000 words I do believe so I'm making the planned ending of the chapter the beginning of the third.

No it is time for me to find something on tv to watch besides the awful Halle Berry "Catwoman" that's raping my television screen as I type.

It's so hot! I'm sweaty and really it's only 70 degrees and I'm dying.

But I'm still writing my 2nd HP story chapter, it's like 13,000 words now and it's a monster and I have anywhere from 1,000-4,000 words before I'm done.

On the school front I finished my clinical internship for this year with my NA class and have my industry assement this wednesday? and then the 7th I have my certification exam.

I need to send stuff to my beta and get to work and I'm so happy school is over in less than 2 months.

I'm also starting another HP story that's a challenge for something, I'll put the link up later maybe with the story since sign-ups are closed anyway.
