Okay, I might as well get started on this now

CHRISTMAS CARD TIME

If anyone wants to get a Christmas card from me, reply here with your address! Screened, of course, so no one else will see.

And if anyone wants to send me one, let me know and I'll give you my own address by PM or whatever.

A) Why does the next volume of the Maximum Ride manga come out in forever. I may actually have to read the books now. ...Oh, Max, I miss you ;_;
B) Holy god I turn 21 in a little over two weeks.
C) Doctor's appointment in half an hour. I should probably. get dressed.
D) I had a gay dream between Maric and Loghain. ......I don't even know. My next playthrough of DA is going to be awkward.

Maybe now that my head is clearing, I can start giving back to the people I should have been giving to all along.

I'm kind of stupid, in many ways. But I know now that my efforts need to be placed in the right places---well, I think I've known that for a while, but I've been too damn hung up to do anything about it.

Things'll change, and...it'll be okay. I still have people who actually care about me.



I can relax this weekend, hell yes. I'll finish reading this book, maybe play some moar Dragon Age, and...idfk. I think my mom wanted to do something tomorrow night so I'll have to get in touch with her.

EDIT:
( Feel the love. )

That's all for now.

Almost three hours late, but...

Happy two years at Purgatorium, me.

First post with Damien was on November 14, 2007.

Beat Dragon Age yesterday, even though I think my ending slightly glitched on something. Amazing game. Final savefile was about 60 hours? I started a new game, female human mage, and then for the hell of it tried the dwarf noble story (h-h-holy shit that was epic).

And...yes. Not much else. I've been doing nothing but play this game for a little over a week now. Better then the alternative, at least.

....yeah. Thinking too hard again, while I'm writing this entry. This is why I need to keep playing.

I'm like a pathetic kicked puppy without its master, in a lot of things.

Not that anyone's actually looking at these, but.

More Dragon Age screencaps, including more Zevran pwnage, strange and slightly homoerotic glitches, and one of the devs spending way too much time on the internet.

WARNING: Last image has a spoiler for one possible end of the Dwarven area.

( unf unf unf )

On a cheerier note, fuck dragons, and Zevran is awesome.

( Large pictures and possible Dragon Age spoilers? )

Dragon Age is still amazing. I'm...a pretty good ways into the game. Off to the dwarf area next, that's the last treaty mission I need to do.

Abnormal psych test tomorrow, haven't even begun studying, whoops. I should...do that.

Mm. I'm glad, at least, that I found a good game to throw myself into. Though I think I'm finally starting to get better lately in terms of some things, other things have smacked me in the face and that's...yeah.

Sometimes I just wonder what friendship is really about, and why it seems that every time I love someone, it all goes to hell in some way.

Okay, emoing up the entry, let's move on.

Wtf 2:30am. Okay. I really need to sleep.

LOL, Zevran.

"Can I ask you a few questions?"
"Sure, but I get to stare at you luridly as you do so."

"How should I know? I got the impression that it involved sex...but then I get that impression about most everything. Odd, really."

"Now that I've mentioned tying me up in that context, do we have any extra rope lying about?"

Okay, I just found this hilarious enough to have to post it here.

I'm reading my Human Sexuality book, chapter is on sexual dysfunctions and stuff. So I get to this.


Of course, none of them can top the performance of a urologist at a medical convention some years ago. He sounded the opening shot (wrong metaphor) in the biological war against erectile disorder through a somewhat unusual presentation. He dropped his pants to reveal an erection.


Basically, he was demonstrating some chemical compound called alprostadil, which when you inject into the peen causes an erection.

I was like WTF that can't be real, but after a bit of searching, I did find the guy on Wiki: Giles Brindley.

He made important contributions to the treatment of erectile dysfunction, but is perhaps best known for an unusual scientific presentation at the 1983 Las Vegas meeting of the American Urological Association, where he removed his trousers to show the audience his chemically induced erection and invited them to inspect it closely.



I don't even.

I wonder how little people will be in class tomorrow because of the parade.

...mm, I just want to go back to sleep. Stupid biology.

In other news, I've realized that the kind of person I am isn't compatible with long term deep friendships. I'm going to stop trying.

Ughhhhh why does MegaUpload suck now, I want to play Dragon Age, it's taking forever to download. So I won't get to play it today. Why did I not download it last night.

In other news, it is really that wrong to miss the past when losing it has sent you into a massive depressive episode? I guess it's just upsetting when people are like "LOL GET THE FUCK OVER YOURSELF" like it's perfectly easy to get over everything. Not everyone is in the same position as you.

I know that people think I'm pathetic for clinging to the past and wishing things were the way they were, and I see my friends talking about "lol why the hell don't people just realize that change is a good thing and inevitable". But I'm sorry if I just miss the times where I was actually happy, motivated, and felt like there was actually something to look forward to and a place I belonged. When something was the reason that you were able to break yourself out of depression and feel good about yourself and life for the first time in a long time, it's not exactly easy to go through ~*change*~, especially when that change leads to such a horrible feeling that doesn't go away.

I don't know. Sorry. I just feel like ranting, I guess. It's too early in the morning to think properly or something.

Maybe I should have gone to Borders today. ::sob:: Oh, Glee cast, you'll be so near to me yet so far.

... ::goes to download a certain song from the next episode off of iTunes::

EDIT: That was nice. Too short though, and I would have preferred an arrangement closer to the actual show, but oh well D: It's Glee, so it's expected to be more of a pop version. Mmmm Kurt. Not enough of him though. Gtfo Rachel.

Oh thank god. Registration went pretty smoothly.

Sadly, due to a change in the time of one class I wanted to take, I can't take Playwriting ;_; Alas.

I might switch Understanding Television to some media ethics class, though... If History of Women's Magazines counts as a Communications/Media Studies elective (the site doesn't list it, but come on, it has to be), then if I do that switch, I think I can actually minor in that field. I'll see if I can find someone to ask today.

lmfao next semester. It's like...biology, and three comm/media studies classes. I don't care for the professor for Films of Moral Struggles (had him as an advisor back when I was going to be a comm major, he was....awful), but OMG FATHER TUETH IS TEACHING THE TV COMEDY CLASS ::HAPPY DANCE:: I had him for Intro to Comm and Media Studies and he was absolutely amazing. I'm going to enjoy the hell out of this class. Tried getting into it last year but everyone wants to take it since he's awesome, so I couldn't get in. But now, bwahahaha.

Okay. I'm in a fairly good mood since I got what I needed out of registration. I'll be there every day of the week, but it could be worse.

...I have a paper to write today D: It's essentially turning my last Human Sexuality paper into a speech, sort of. I'll throw something together during my break today.

aw crap bio quiz today I should print out the stuff to study on the train

Definitely one of the better Halloweens I've had, which is amazing considering just two days ago, I thought it was just going to end up in pure suck.

First activity today was Jekyll & Hyde for lunch. Tim and I got there early so we walked around Central Park a bit and snapped some photos. Met up with Maz and Bobby, waited an asslong time for Ami since the train system sucks, then headed in. For the first time ever, I actually sat on a different floor; we were on the third, the laboratory. I like the first floor better but it was still a fun experience. Food was good, actors were fun and interactive with us, Bobby--who was dressed as Mario---got into a showdown with one of the actors over Mario ("Mario DDR! Seriously, what!" the guy exclaimed as he walked by us later). Overall, definitely a great time. I need to organize another hangout, and get more people to go with me there to crazy it up.

Afterwards, back home, where we began our party here. Watching flash animations/youtube vids/etc for a bit until everyone got here, then we hooked up my 360 and Rock Band. I think my 360 is crapping out (and I just bought this new one, what, three months ago?) because it took about twenty minutes to get it to read a disc. And some of my DLC content wasn't loading right on Rock Band 2 wtfffff. Well, once we got everything working, we played. For a long time. You really can't go wrong with Rock Band.

Finally taking off my costume at the end of the night was such a depressing experience ;_; I love being Hyde.

AND NOW

a brief few pics of me and Tim (who did a last minute, makeshift Professor Layton costume)

( Images inside, la de da )

Sweet god, people, do I have to talk about murdering people to get you to comment? :|

Yay for red food coloring. I have a small bottle that I was going to fill with cranberry juice to simulate the potion, but it was ridiculously pale. Which certainly isn't a warning light, glimmering in red, like crimson bloodshed, shimmering in red. A few drops of food coloring later, though, it looks more like I wanted it to be. Not perfect, but good enough for now.

I'll have to get in my contacts soon, since god knows if it'll take five minutes or an hour to get in. Clear ones are harder to judge whether you got it in right or not. I was thinking of wearing color, but I want to save my grey ones in case if cosplay Allelujah again. ...I wonder what color eyes my idea of Jekyll has?

The rest of the costume should be pretty much set. It's a good thing I gave it a test run that day with the one-woman show, so I know I have everything.

Also.

What do..people do at parties? I'm having five or six people over in the evening, and I have nothing here planned except chips, soda, and Rock Band. What else? WHAT DO PEOPLE DO AT PARTIES

Okay, let's see. Finish up cleaning down here, get into costume, meet Tim by Ricky's so he can get a top hat for his Layton costume, head into city for Jekyll & Hyde, come back here, finish getting basement ready.

Next Hallowen's going to be totally badass beyond badass, though. mirite Katie, Skie?
