Really Really Random Thought..

TV has got to be the greatest thing ever invented.

Haven't blogged for a long time... but...

Lance should not be in last place on Dancing with the Stars. He just shouldn't. Ugh. I'm so not crazy about his partner.

Snatched from windchaserc, who snatched it from itsbuttery, who also snatched it from a bunch of other people. I really wanted to join in on the fun!

Give me one of my own stories and a timestamp sometime in the future after the end of the story, or sometime in the past before the story started, and I'll write you at least a hundred words of what happened then, whether it's five minutes before the story started or ten years in the future.

P.S. New Sky/Syd fic for those who don't know. Wheeee!

School Starts Again Today...

Mon, 05 May 2008 17:49:46 GMT

And it's making me really depressed. *sigh* It doesn't start till 6pm though, so I've got at least another couple of hours to brood and wallow in self pity.

I worked on one of my new Sky/Syd fics for a bit this morning and if I can somehow get myself to stop procrastinating I'm sure I can finish it by the time I have to leave before school. We'll see how that goes though.

I watched Iron Man on Saturday night and it was a pretty awesome movie! It turned out to be a much better movie that I thought it would be. Robert Downing Jr would not be the first person I'd pick for the role of Iron Man, but he wasn't a bad choice.

Rest of my weekend consisted of work and sleeping. ^^

Oh It's a Beautiful Day.

Wed, 30 Apr 2008 23:11:26 GMT

Well, not really. It was raining all day buuuuuutt... it was a nice day to me because I PASSED ALL MY COURSES! WHOOO! Of course, I knew I wouldn't really fail... but I got better marks than I thought I did.. not one C! Three A's and one B which is pretty awesome considering I went into my finals with a B+ average.

I've been going through a Chris Evans phase lately. Since school ended, I've been trying to find all of the movies that he's been in and it's been really hard to find some of them since I don't like ordering stuff online. It all started when I picked up 'The Nanny Diaries' since I'm a big fan of Scarlett Johansson. I had no idea that the guy in that movie also played Johnny Storm in 'Fantastic 4.' Throughout the entire film, I couldn't place where I'd seen him before. Of course, once I looked up his profile on imdb, I just had to go and watch the Fantastic 4 films again.

*grins* It's been such a relaxing week. I love it!

Procrastination Really SHOULD Be My Middle Name.

Thu, 24 Apr 2008 03:40:55 GMT

So I've got an exam tomorrow that I really should be studying for, since it's my last one. I'm really not motivated to study at all and instead found myself doing a bunch of other (mostly useless) things. I tell myself, "I'll study in an hour" or "I'll start studying after I finish eating" and guess what? Yes, that's right - it never happens. I consider myself lucky that I'm an excellent crammer :)

I watched the latest episode of Jungle Fury and once again, I find myself absolutely falling in love with Casey. I LOVE his personality. I really want to write a fic about him or something, just to explore his character a little more but I can't get into his head. I have this pet peeve of making characters too OOC and I constantly find myself second guessing *sigh* I'll eventually attempt to write a JF fic though. My inspiration is slowly coming back, new ideas are coming to the surface and now that school is almost over, I'll be able to write!

Speaking of writing, I'm not sure if I've ever mentioned this on here (I probably haven't, but my memory sucks so I can never be too sure) but a new Sky/Syd fic is in the process of almost being done. I've really struggled with writing this fic and it kind of upsets me because I love these characters so much. I've been out of the loop for so long now that I think I've lost my "Sky&Syd touch" as some people like to call it (won't mention any names). Ah well, I'm looking forward to posting this fic soon just to see what people think (I hope people haven't forgotten me!). I think I might actually get some flames....

Okay, I'm going to actually get back to writing now. I'm SO glad I've gotten my muse back.... =D

The Forbidden Kingdom

Mon, 21 Apr 2008 02:01:55 GMT

...watched The Forbidden Kingdom last night. It's slightly predictable but nonetheless great. I love Jackie Chan and Jet Li with all my soul. Must be the asian girl in me *grins*

Street Kings

Fri, 18 Apr 2008 02:29:39 GMT

Help...

I am so screwed for my exam tomorrow.

Tue, 15 Apr 2008 05:26:27 GMT

Sometimes I think I invest too much time into TV and movies - correction, I know I invest too much time in it. And yet, I feel like it's my life! I'm going to be sad when summer comes, won't be able to see all my favorite shows :(

The one thing I really hate about myself is that I am extremely good at procrastinating. Well, Procrastinating and sleeping. My first final is on Thursday and I took this weekend off with the intention of studying for it. What ended up happening, is that I decided to watch a couple of hours of Firefly and now I'm in no mood to study.

Not that I ever was in the mood to study, but I'm sure everyone knows what I mean.

So now, I'm taking a break from watching Firefly - and blogging on LJ. I really have a good sense of priorities! Heh. Procrastinating always wins out.

Watched Street Kings last night. Pretty violent... but I loved each and every character. Especially Hugh Laurie and Chris Evans. It was also really weird to see Keanu Reeves play a character other than Neo from Matrix simply because that's all I can really see him as. It's just like how Daniel Radcliffe will always be seen as the boy who played Harry Potter.

Grrr... x2

Calgary weather sucks!! I woke up this morning to find a crazy snowstorm falling and it put me in a bad mood because now I'm going to be late and probably miss the first half of my day. Classes are almost over and its somewhat crucial for me to attend.. but the fricken WEATHER!!! Arg... I hate unpredictable conditions sometimes.. esp. in the winter!

Aiii...

having a boyfriend really sucks sometimes....

Dancing With the Stars

Tue, 08 Apr 2008 04:54:23 GMT

Is so awesome! Before season six began, I was only excited about Kristi Yamaguchi being on the show but after watching tonight's dances, I really love, love, LOVE Shannon Elizabeth. Loved her dance so much that I gave her all my votes! *grins* The new episode of Samantha Who was awesome! So funny... I really hope that show comes back for a second season!

Finals are coming up really soon. My first one is next Thursday and I'm sooo not prepared for it. I really gotta crack down and start studying for it :(

Updated FTP today. Actually, it felt really good to submit that new chapter and I'm actually really looking forward to seeing what everyone thinks about it - that is if anyone actually still remembers the story! LOL! Gotta start working towards finishing the story now... here's too hoping that it'll be sometime this year!

"Don't Touch What You Can't Afford, Sunshine!"

Tue, 01 Apr 2008 14:58:24 GMT

Ahh, Dancing With the Stars last night was awesome. The judges totally crack me up - I think I was laughing more at their comments and enjoying the show rather than concentrating on the dances! Kristi Yamaguchi is doing awesome - I really hope she wins. I can't really help but think that she might get eliminated because she's TOO good, after all, that's what happened to Sabrina last season.

FTP's 15th chapter is coming along really slowly. I keep setting myself deadlines to finish it since the chapter is practically done, it only needs a few more scenes, but it never seems to get written. It's starting to really frustrate me actually, I just want to get the chapter out there - but being the perfectionist that I am, I just can't seem to let it go until I'm satisfied. Can't really say I'm completely unhappy though, my inspiration may come and go but at least I'm actually working on it *sigh*

Anyway, I should get back to my econ crap. Happy April Fools people!

So my morning class got cancelled AGAIN! I'm really annoyed now since we're practically nearing the end of the semester and we still have about four chapters to cover. That's less than three weeks to learn everything! Aiii... I didn't waste time studying today for my quiz - which I aced! It was awesome. One good thing of my professor cancelling a week of classes is that it has freed up some time for me to do other things.

I was working on chapter 15 of FTP and I managed to write about three pages in a span of an hour during my break. I was literally on a roll and I was pretty disappointed to stop writing when it was time for me to head off to my other classes. So far, the chapter is about halfway done. I want to write as much of the story as possible while the inspiration is still with me and the ideas are floating around in my head =)

grr...

Tue, 25 Mar 2008 15:41:23 GMT

So I'm sitting in my computer lab feeling a little more than mad at the fact that my professor cancelled my class today. Students are poor. That's pretty much a given fact for most post-secondary students. Why do teachers waste our money by CANCELLING CLASS?!

I guess I'm more annoyed at the fact that I had a paper due for this class and I worked my butt off on it all weekend so that it would be all nice and ready to hand in today and instead, I find out that we get a two day extension on it and that it's due on Thursday. On the bright side, I can work on it a little more but since I've busted my butt for it, I'd rather not look at the thing anymore.

*sigh*

Who watched Dancing with the Stars last night? Go Team Kristi!

Dead Like Me...

Sun, 23 Mar 2008 02:48:52 GMT

Is a pretty funny show! Gotta love tv... =)

o.O

Sat, 22 Mar 2008 04:49:36 GMT

I spend so much money at the movie theatre *sigh* I went and saw the Other Boleyn Girl today for the second time. Watching it the second time around only made me love Natalie Portman even more - she's got to be one of my favorite actresses! Wheee...

=P

I hate it when my foot falls asleep and then when I try to walk, it feels like I'm stepping on nails...

Dancing With the Stars...

Wed, 19 Mar 2008 16:36:48 GMT

Was pretty awesome last night. My favorite couple this season is by far, Mark and Kristi and I'm soooo glad she got the highest score of everyone! She was clearly the best! Yay! ^^ The person that surprised me the most was Priscilla Presley, for her age, she did pretty good for her first routine!

My cousin stayed home from work today to "guard" our house incase that guy comes back and attempts to break in again. She's kinda crazy, that it makes me laugh *sigh*

Ahh, what can you do?

If our house gets broken into again, I hope they don't steal my dvds or my laptop. They're my only prized possessions anyway *shrugs*

Oh my...

Wed, 19 Mar 2008 01:50:30 GMT

Aii... So I came home today and my cousin told me that someone had tried to break into our house through MY window.

Yeah, so I'm a little freaked out now.

The fact that it was through my window scares me a little bit. We're talking about puting bars up across all our windows and upgrading the security alarm systems. My cousin is even talking about getting a dog! Thank goodness that the neighbours saw someone trying to break my window and called the police, but unfortunately they didn't get the guy.

Boy, what a day.

New season starts tonight! Wooot!!!!!

So, I skipped work today intending to study for my midterms and to finish writing my essay but I ended up taking a four hour nap and I'm no less better off.

I really need to get my priorities straight.
