I'm making everyone play Grow.  It's so fun!  Just put the objects on one at a time, in different orders, and look at the levels at the end.  It's so great when you figure it out!  Go here:  http://www.eyezmaze.com/grow/cube/index.html  I'll help you if you need it.  Great game!  There are two more of them to the left if you figure it out, too...

I swear iTunes is "psychic."  It ALWAYS freaks me out by playing songs I was thinking about or songs that very directly relate to what I'm doing or talking about.  Plus I think it has "psychic" programming... I was just in eMule and I closed an old search for Galaxy Bounce by Chemical Brothers, which I realized I already had so I didn't even download... what song did iTunes play JUST THEN!?  Freakin GALAXY BOUNCE.  Out of thousands and thousands of songs it could have played right then I refuse to believe this is coincidence.  iTunes... you rock.

About two songs later it played Your Song from Moulin Rouge... I was just talking about the soundtrack on the phone mere minutes before.  ...?  HOW!!??!  STUFF LIKE THIS HAPPENS OFTEN!

Later that night.... it TOTALLY reminded me that I told Katy I'd send her the Roots.  The 4th song I played since I've been back, it played the Roots.  There are 15 songs by them out of  2082 songs on this one playlist I'm listening to.  This is THREE TIMES TODAY.

So yeah... I actually wound up being in a lot of shots.  Filming is SO fun... I loved doing the same thing over and over.  And I'm not even joking, it was like 20 times was not enough to go buy a ticket and walk to my seat.  It was AWESOME.  Also I wound up in a bunch of shots with ORLANDO JONES and I got his autograph.  HAHA!  SWEEEEEEEEET.

It's called Looking For Sunday, it's set in Denver, and it's coming out next fall.  I can't wait to see myself on the big screen.  Heee!

P.S. Nobody Knows sucked.

I'm in a movie. I'm on the set right now. I'm a moviestaaaaaaaaar! Well... At least an extra. A reflection of an extra at times. Haha. Oh well, it's boring yet sooo exciting and fun. It's called Looking For Sunday and it's coming out next fall... The director went to UNC and it's being filmed in Denver. Sweeeet.

I'm so excited.  EE!!

I'd like you all to meet Frank Lucifer Baum, Chang, and Tsurusagi-san.

Frank, or Fred as he likes to be called, is having a hard time adjusting to the climate I think.  I'll have to take extra care in watering him.

9 days to Corpse Bride.

Don't you hate it when someone adds you as a friend on facebook and you have no idea who they are?  I'm talking about the kind where you have to go to their page and check if you have any friends or classes in common to try to figure out where you might have met them but you can't... you look at their number of friends and it's not like they're a facebook friend whore or anything... what do you do?  Do you add them or reject them?  Ugh... I'm gonna have to go with reject.

I got my first test of the semester back today.  I surprised even myself with a 90½%  That's right kids... my first French test ever.  Aced it.  Hahah.  Oh god.  I think my teacher hates me though.  I'm that lazy smart kid who does NOTHING but get A's on all her tests.  Maybe I'll work on changing that.  You know what... I will.  I'll try and get F's from now on...

Metroid Prime 2 owns me right now.

YES, I saw Dukes of Hazzard.  YES, I kind of enjoyed it.  NO, I probably wouldn't have at any other time.  Haha.  What a fun night.  Special shout out to Jazz "The Music Man" Johnson.  SP!

I will now start the Corpse Bride countdown because, as my new hella cool roomate Matt says, it looks like I'm about to blow a corpse bride-y load whenever I see a commercial.  I'm glad he didn't see me watching the trailer before Dukes of Hazzard.  I was writhing around and... let's just say it wasn't very pretty.

Anyway:  11 days!

PS Whoever wants a High School Facebook invite tell me.  I don't want them anymore.

I think I decided what I want most right now... A good digital video camera. I need a new camera... Video would be sweeeeeeeeeet.

Also:  an iPod nano.  It's sexy... holds only a little but it's sexy.  And my iPod battery is absolutely dead anyway.

OK, now I remember why I didn't take a lot of classes before.  A lot of classes that I NEED to pay attention in to be able to do well in, classes that aren't pretty much review, classes that are... almost HARD.  It's because I SUCK at school.  Did I forget high school?  Or did I think I was better than that now.  Well, I guess I'm not.  Wait... I AM, dammit!  I'm done falling behind.  What the fuck.  Be bored and lazy or work a little?  OK... a lot maybe.  In either case, what will I be happier about doing in 10 years?  Or 10 minutes for that matter.

Yeh, it's easy to say and easy to think... but I just don't have that mentality.  I wish I knew why not...  Because I'm already way behind.  Whatever.  No more...  I overloaded myself this semester for a reason didn't I?

Nothing important happened. Don't freak out. There are just some people--one in particular--that I cannot bear to hurt, ESPECIALLY when it was because of my own stupidity. ESPECIALLY when they've done absolutely nothing to deserve it. ESPECIALLY when it's quite the opposite, and they're pretty much the nicest people. My favorite people.

It REALLY bums me out when that happens.
But I'm ok now... I've just got to be more careful next time. Be nicer, much more respectful, less annoying, less nosy. I'll try.

Oh well... I'm over it.
You kind of get over things like that when you're dealing with wonderful, extremely gracious people. I wish there were more people like that. Well... I wouldn't care really if there were. I already found my favorite.
Here's the big 19...

Update.  It was a very very nice birthday.  I got $50 from my mom and dad and $100 from my love.  Earlier I got $10 from a family friend and cool stuff from Dayna.  For lunch I forced everyone to go to one of my favorite restaurants, Hapa.  Best sushi EVER.  I stuffed myself full of deliciousness and the wasabi cured me of my illness... somewhat.  Now I'm going to go see March of the Penguins.  20th year is looking better than I thought...

I'll never forget entering my 20th year on the earth sobbing like I probably did 19 years ago today, in a few hours. I wonder if I was in as much pain as I am now...

Why do I do that kind of thing? Why can't I just respect it? Why didn't I know it would happen that way? Why am I so fuckin stupid...

I hate that I always have to learn things the hard way... Twice or three times. So stupid.

Thank you for the gift...
I'm sorry.
