Alice Alice Alice!

So yay, it's the weekend! This week went by kinda fast, but then so did Spring Break. Anyways, I saw Alice in Wonderland! I especially liked the Cheshire Cat... he was creepy, but cool.

Our garage is like, an abyss, but we're finally having a garage sale this weekend. (We planned to do so last summer.) I'm just sitting here, avoiding work by blogging and reading social media news on mashable.com.

Did I mention I'm now taking an actual art class? My friend introduced me to it, and I now go there every Wednesday after school with her. I hope it helps me sharpen my art skills. :)

Back to Alice in Wonderland. There's an album on iTunes from various artists that was inspired by the movie, called Almost Alice. Right now I'm debating on whether to buy the songs I know I like individually or to take a chance, save some money, and buy the whole album. Hmmm...


Owl City- The Technicolor Phase:

"if you cut me i suppose i would bleed
the colors of the evening stars
you can go wherever you wish
cause i'll be there
wherever you are"

More OOTS Stuff!

I now associate a total of four wildly different songs with Order Of The Stick

Tip Of The Iceberg - Owl City (electronic)

Dead Man's Party - Oingo Boingo (alternative)

Through The Fire and Flames - Dragonforce (rock)

TiK ToK - Ke$ha (pop)

o_O

Also.. my mom might take me to a game/comic book store to see if they carry the Order Of The Stick prequel books. The prequel books are.. well, what it says on the tin, but they're only in print, so I really want them. Of course, I want the others too for the ability to read them without being on a computer and to see the extra strips & introductions and such, but I really want the prequels. *.*

Also (2 weeks+ late) I've decided to make a New Year's resolution after all - make more than 50 posts this year! 8D

REFLECTION TIME!! o_o

Well, I got 9 on Blu-Ray and watched it again. I still have to say it's one of (if not the most) my favorite movies ever. But I watched the newest Star Trek movie on Blu-Ray afterwards, and I also have to say that I found Star Trek more compelling. Oh well.

Oh yes, and happy new year to everybody! Let's see, um.. reflections, reflections. In 2009 I stopped playing Neopets and started playing Subeta, Valenth, and Squiby. I made this blog and then later, my tumblr. I became obsessed with 9 and Order of The Stick. I embraced my inner artist and wrote my first fanfic. (This is all out of order, by the way.) I discovered some new music - Owl City and Three Days Grace especially. I came to love The Big Bang Theory. I found my inner "passion" for drumming - wait, that was fourth grade. But I suck at the drums on Rock Band..

Yeah, I think that's the best reflection I can come up with. It's 2010 now! And as Cyanide & Happiness said:

Balloon Cars {and cave in}

I've had just about enough
Of cloaked diamonds in the rough
Because my backbone is paper thin
Get me out of this cavern or I'll cave in

So, Mrs. Persad assigned us this stupid project on Friday; we had to make a "car" powered by no more than 2 balloons in a week, and it had to go at least 5 meters. That's 15 feet. And did I mention that the wheels you used could not be anything originally meant to be used as wheels?

It was pretty stupid, and me and my partner had a bit of a scramble to get it done. Especially me; I (and I got my parents to help a lot, too) stayed up until 1 last night getting it done. And all in all, it went 3 meters. That's good, since at least once or twice it didn't really go anywhere, which means that I got an 85 instead of a 65. Whew.

It's 1 again right now, and I probably should've gone to bed 2 hours ago.. but I kinda got wrapped up in Tvtropes. Which I think is kindof lame and not really well known, but it has that Wikipedia quality that you can keep looking up stuff for hours. Which.. I just did.

If the bombs go off the sun will still be shining
Because I've heard it's said that every mushroom cloud has a silver lining

By the by, getting the Ocean Eyes album was definitely a good idea. Even the song that I thought was wayyyyyy too cheery at first seems to appeal to me now. And my dad seems to like Owl City, which is cool.

I'm going to be a vampire again, like last year - same costume and everything, since I didn't express much interest in being something else. And I don't mean the sparkly vampire. I just have a pale face and a trickle of face blood for my makeup. No glitter. ;)

Tie my handlebars to the stars so I stay on track~

Happy Halloween, everyone!

{By the way, my possible favorite song out of the Ocean Eyes album is Cave In, followed by the original Hello Seattle and, of course, Fireflies.}

blarrggh

mrs. persad really annoys me. out of all my teachers this year, she is the only one i really dislike (though i thought she was okay at first.) she gives out ridiculous science projects and she talks way too fast and she's like ugggh. one time she had us spend the entire period presenting our warm-ups, and then we had to go turn them in anyways. she could've just asked us to turn them in and let us do something USEFUL for a change. but nooo.

i just bought the entire owl city album ocean eyes. i hope i don't regret it. i just basically spent the very last of my itunes money (and yes, i use itunes. i'm scared that my parents will find out that i downloaded it from somewhere else and thing i pirated it or something like that. ;-; oh well.)

Welcome Home by Coheed and Cambria (which, by the way, is on the 9 soundtrack) is really cool. I like it, although I must say that I actually just like the instrumentals. x) If you wanna see what I'm talking about, here you go.

this is the one time i'm allowed to stay up until like midnight, and i start getting tired-ish around eleven. ;P

oh yes, and now for a statement about the wonderful MLIA, if you haven't heard of it already..

My Life is Average.

Yes, it's true.

But sometimes, there are amazing, wonderful situations that happen to average people. MLIA is a site which shares the layout style of the more well-known FML, but the stories are entertaining and thoughtful. Here's an example;

"Today, I found out that my guidance counselor had me switched to harder classes. I was really upset until I went to AP global. when I got there, the teacher handed out 3D glasses to every student and began to write notes on the board in 3D chalk. I have a feeling I'm going to like this class. MLIA"

I swear, after reading FML for a while, this site gives me hope for the human race.
