Aight! So this is officially my last post on this account.
I started this journal on July 11, 2004. Good god. That was quite long ago, but at the same time I feel like I've been on LJ forever. It's crazy.
I'm fairly certain I've transferred everything over, but if I've forgotten to add you on my new account, just leave me a comment and yell at me. Or just friend me, lol. Whichever you want. I down with either.
Click on the pretty picture of Kristin Kreuk to get to my new journal:
Jessca, I give up.
I cant deal with these people. NO ONE entered my new challenge (well, Kelly did, but she's just awesome always), even after I posted a reminder.
I know I said I was going to try to give it a month longer, but it's been this way for MONTHS.
If they dont care enough even to onter a SINGLE ICON, then I dont care enough to keep putting up challenges. Not even the steady people, who I always got atleast one or two icons from, send me entries anymore.
I've been ditched by two comods, who apparently saw the uselessness long before I did.
I wish that I wanted to continue. But... it's really not fun any more.
I dont know what to do to make them active. I ask and ask what I should do, what changes I should make, etc, but no one even gives me suggestions. Other than "The caps you choose SUCK."
I just dont know.
Anyhoo... I've decided that I'm going to switch over to my new account permanently. I'll probably start posting on it in a couple days. Today I'm gonna start joining all the communities and friending everybody I have on this account.
And it's not like I'm deleting this account. It'll always be here, so I'll be able to come back and reminisce (I just know I didnt spell that right) whenever I want to.
Today Kate, Devin, Jessca and I are going to see Blood and Chocolate. We have to go all the way to Falmouth cuz they arent playing it around here. Riiiidiculous. Especially since they charge for a matinee what our theater charges for a normal nighttime showing. But it'll be fun, nonetheless.
DAMN it's freakin' cold. Seriously, we have the thermostat set to NINETY, and it's still under 70 degrees in here. It's like the heaters arent even on. But they are on, I assure you.
You know, I actually have to wear a sweater. And socks. Around my house. And I now realize that this isnt THAT big of a deal. But seriously, we always keep the house warm. 75 atleast. Cuz Dawgley gets too cold too fast, and that leads to badness. And cuz it's just more comfortable.
God my arm hurts. My shins are better again, but my upper arm hurts from where I fell. But it's not bruised, so I just look like a wimp. But I did something to the muscle, and its painful. And it's my right arm, so I'm having to do everything with my left. Which is difficult. I'm not that coordinated.
Sooo... yeah. I'm gonna go post on ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif?v=92.1) ros_textless, and then start switching over to my new account.
So, I'm in a bit of a predicament...
I made a new username to test/setup a layout on. But, as it turns out, I really like the screenname I chose for it.
And... "orpheus345" is kind of getting old. I dont really dig having the random numbers. And, I still love the name/word orpheus, but it's just... yeah.
So, the username I chose, is ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif?v=92.1) radiantpallor.
Why the hell did I choose that?
The word "pallor" is used in the song This Celluloid Dream by AFI,
"In the glitter, in the dark, sunk into velvet
Praying this will never end
In the shadow of a star, in static pallor
I realized I never began"
And, since the screenname "staticpallor" was taken, I had to do some actual thinking.
Later in the song are the lyrics "Bathed in your radiance, I melt".
So, I took "radiance" and made it fit grammatically.
Oh, and, also. "Pallor" is an extreme paleness, specifically in the skin. And "radiant" well, I think we all know what radiant means. Bright, glowing, shining, etc etc.
Lol and now that you know the history of my new username from it's very inception, I dont know what to do.
I kind of want to switch over to that account permanently. But I'd have to friend people again, join communities again... lol, yeah, so, I guess it's not THAT much work, but I still dont know.
And yeah I know my username is kinda emo. I think it's pretty. Leave me alone, lol.
MWAHAHAHAHA!
COLTS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL!
Yeah, I'm going to hell. I'm pretty much the only person in the greater New England area who is freakin THRILLED by this.
The Patriots are always at the Superbowl, the Colts havent been in atleast 9 years. It's time to give someone else from the division a freaking chance.
Mwahahahahahhahahaaaaaa! The Pats were OWNED. What was it? 38 to 34 with a minute left in the game? Oh, Brady, you're good, but not that good.
You know, last year, when the Steelers got to the Superbowl, I was thrilled. But I didnt care if they won or not. But this year, with the Colts, I'm freakin ecstatic. I want Peyton and the other Colts boys to OWN. But not with a game as close as this one was. I want them to win by a lot. A way lot.
Aaaaanyhoo... So, Mrs. Chapman didnt have my recommendation ready. I'm just gonna have to send the application without it. I've gotta get this fricking thing done.
And yet another person looked at me like I was a psychotic turnip on speed when I said that I'm only applying to one school. What part of THERES NO WHERE ELSE I CAN GO AT THIS POINT is so very difficult a concept? It's freaking January, my grades are crap, I'm 34th in the class, and I dont do extracurriculars. I'm brilliant, but thats all I've got going for me.
And if I cant get into USM... Theres really no reason for me to try to get in anywhere else. I'll just take the year off and do something productive, I'm thinking interning at some sort of historical institution.
"Hysterical institution" is how I read those last 2 words, lol.
New semester starts today... wute. Wow, that's something I havent said in a long time, "wute." Weeeiiird.
OH! THE MOST IMPORTANTEST THING!!!
AFI was on SNL... I loved them. They kicked ass during Love Like Winter. Unfortunately during Miss Murder Davey was having mic troubles, only he didnt know about it, heh. But atleast now everyone knows that they really do sing their songs and that Ashley Simpson will never live it down.
An hour and a half of SNL for 6 minutes of AFI. But it was worth it.
And now it's time to get ready for that metaphorical hell they call "high school."
Hahahahahahhaha. I love when there are two icon makers in the same community, and the first makes a set of kickass icons. The second, jealous of the praise and compliments that the first iconmaker is receiving, decides to make their own icons on the same theme as the first iconmaker's. But the second iconmaker fails IMMENSELY.
Why do I love that? It actually sounds like kind of a b***hy thing to say, lol. But, really, atleast I realize that I have no icon making potential. I accept it, and move on to other things that I have slightly more skill in. But some people just.... yeah.
Kudos to everyone who can make kickass icons, btw. Y'all own me.
Anyway...
So I went to Hot Topic today to get an AFI tshirt that I fell in love with online. But the largest size they had was, well, a Large. And it fit, but it was a bit too tight for me to be comfortable with. AFI's online store only has the shirt up to Large, also.
Here's my dilemma.
Hot Topic's website has the shirt up to XL. Now, I dont know if it'll really end up being the same size, and they just figured they could pass it off as Large.
And, like I said, Large fit. But, since I dont generally wear tshirts in the first place, and I'd want to wear something underneath it, I'd much rather have one size up.
But I dunno if I want to take the risk and order it online when I cant actually try it on. But I freakin' love this shirt.
Dammit.
Jessca, we're going to see Mrs. Chapman tomorrow, right?
Lol also, Jessca and Kelly, you both suck. Both of you have very valid reasons for me to join you at your respective place of employment.
But, if Lazyness was one of those 7 Wicked Bad Sins, I'd so go to hell straight off the bat.
Oh well.
AFI is gonna be on Saturday Night Live tonight! Guess who's stayin' up all late to watch Davey and the boys? Oh, that's right! This chick!
So many posts in the past couple days. Sheesh.
Anyhoo, with a great deal of encouragement from Jessca, I was able to make a couple headers of Davey Havok. Well, three headers. Well, really, three variations of one base. But I really like 2 of them, so that's good.
So, this one I dont really like. The text is just.... there. It's blocky and all up in Davey's grill.
I really like these two, especially the last one:
Yeah, I'm definitely proud of that last one. The simplest one to make, but my favorite overall.
Ohh! And I made a header of the Twilight cover, using lyrics from AFI's 'Kiss and Control'.
I've royally screwed up my layout.
I... need a code. From anyone. I just need a freaking layout back.
Phew. That was really, really bad for a while there. I was... fairly beyond pissed off, lol.
So, now that it's back up (and I'm not even going to TRY to do what I was doing when I f**ked up the layout), I can say...
New layout! The wonderful header was made by wild_musings. Freaking awesome.
Ehhhhh!
I've lost my mind for real this time.
At some point in the last few days, I ran across some kickass AFI headers. But, of course, I didnt save them at the time, because I'm a moron.
Now I cant for the life of me figure out where the hell I saw them.
And I want them. Cuz... my AFI headers just arent working for me right now. I cant even completely finish a single one.
One of them was on a stage. And... eh. I just dont even know.
And, yeah, I dont expect any of you to know, but I just had to rant.
Wah. JK! Problem solved.
On a lighter note,
K-Dawg and I watched Smallville last night, neither of us have watched the beginning of this season or any of last season. But, Kate <3's the Justice League, so, we watched. And that was pretty damn entertaining.
Cyborg: *somethingsomethingsomething*, Fishstick. And put a shirt on.
Aquaman: You're lucky I still have my pants on.
HA! Smallville OWNED MY SOUL for a couple seconds there. Fo' realz.
And then Supernatural came on, and, yeah, soul was repo'd.
When we first saw the two girls, I felt like the curly haired one could be imaginary. But then they ran past Sam, and I thought he moved for both of them, so I ruled it out.
Damn, I'm smart.
Sam and Dean are almost too much to handle lately. They're just... ugh. Poor Dean, he has to deal with Sammy's emo rants every 43 seconds. Really, Sam, get over it. So, you're gonna turn evil, what's the big deal? You know Dean wont kill you, and you know you wont be evil for long. Cuz, hey, there'd really be no show without you. So theres no need to fret.
Frickin' dolls though. Eck. I hate dolls. Especially ones that have a habit of spontaneously BEING HORRIBLY MUTILATED AND CAUSE THE DEATH OF UNSUSPECTING INNOCENT PEOPLE. Yeah, definitely that kind.
Anyhoo.
So yesterday before I cleaned, Jessca and I watched AFI interviews like WOAH on youtube. For over an hour, I think. Davey is just so damn adorable. And he refers to his fans as his "kids". It's really cute. They're much more... I dunno the word. The guys of 30stm are great and all, and they do a lot for their fans, but the guys of AFI seem to adore their fans.
This is the first weekend in a very, very long time that I havent had any school work to do.
I'm gonna miss Law. And that's weird. I had no friends in that class, I sat by my emo self over by the wall. But it was interesting, and... yeah.
Hopefully my new schedule will be all set by Monday, so I can go to my new classes. AKA Drawing and Library. Cuz 3 study halls would probably be the death of me. "The death of me" feels like something I already said in this post. But I'm too lazy to scroll up and look, lol. So, if I'm repetitive, sorry about that.
Another "Hopefully": I'm gonna try to make some good AFI headers. So, hopefully they'll be up today.
Are you stalking me?
Because that would be really cool.
(Kelly! They dont have that shirt online anymore! Ugh!)
Anyhoo, here are the stalkery results thus far:
Kelly- 81
Caitlin- 70
Stolen from Caitlin!
Heheheh, this is amazing. Honestly, whenever I see/hear the word 'stalker' I immediately think of that wonderful shirt I saw in the UK. I always forget the exact quote, though (Kelly? Help?).
Anyhoo...
How good of a stalker are you?

That was fun.
Anyhoodle. So, I got a 113 on my Law test today (second highest grade IN THE CLASS), and I dont think I did too bad on the final either. I'm gonna miss Mr. Andreasen. He's awesome.
So I'm picking up Drawing and keeping Physics. Cuz Guidance is PSYCHO.
This is how my schedule will PROBABLY look:
1AC: English
2AC: Statistics
3AC: Drawing
4AC: Library
1BD: Physics
2BD: Study Hall
3BD: Latin
4BD: Gym
That's the theory. I'll have to go to Guidance to get my schedule to make sure.
I... really have nothing else to talk about right now. So, I'm out, homies.
Yet another reason to hate GNG HS:
Everyone. In. The. Guidance. Office. Sucks.
Fo' reals, yo.
Not that this is a newly learned fact, but they just had to display their crazy again today. I say I want to drop Physics and they look at me like I've just announced that I'm going to kill myself. I'm sorry that you dont actually do any real counseling, but that's no excuse to freak out over little things. You freaking psychos. My god. Leeeave me alooooone! So, yeah, I'll be staying in Physics. 'Cause they scare me. But I get to pick up Drawing, so that'll be nifty.
Now I need to figure out who at USM I talk to about getting a work study. But I dont even know if I talk to them until after I get accepted. I just dont know anything, really.
I just need to keep reminding myself of my overall college plan:
USM for 2 years - Focusing on History
A Better School for 2 more years - Majoring in History
And if I dont have some sort of career in archaeology/history by that time
Southern Connecticut State University - Masters in Library Science
And that comforts me. I'm comforted.
I am so damn screwed.
College... is going to suck.
I have no idea how I'm going to do this.
I wish I'd honestly cared earlier in this process. I've always been the kind of person that just settles with what I think is good enough. USM seemed to work... But I really dont want to go.
