One more week of AC13, everyone! How are you all faring?
~~~
I just figured out how to use Windows Movie Maker to make animations. Whoo, I'm so dense!
(The horrible part is is that the fastest you can have a frame up is a seventh of a second... if that's bad... )
>>

So... yeah, testing that out. I've made a couple test animations, about 20 frames long and lasting around 2 seconds. I'll be making longer ones... as soon as I can figure out why my stupid microphone is
*deep breath*
I just got off the phone with my dad (he's at a Boy Scout thing about 3 hours away), and guess what?
He's taking me in to get my permit when he gets back! I'll finally be able to DRIVE!
*freaks out for the second time this week*

My younger sis is at the doctor's office right now, getting something checked out that's on her inner arm.
We don't know what it is, but she's had it for the past 3 months and it's gotten worse - it's like a growth or something... She was a little scared when she left.
I feel so worthless, cause I'm at home...

In Time Trap, after Vakama fixes the Mask of Time and does his little aside thing, it says he 'wrenches the mask free' from where it was stuck.
That kinda got me thinking...
If you have to wrench it free... it must be stuck pretty good and firm, right?
And that got me thinking some more.
A number of ideas flew through my head.
And this is what I finally came up with.
Heh, I love your use of verbs, Greg.

Yup.
Didn't get to dress up and go out with my brother to get candies this Halloween. Mainly because:
1) My costume does not fit anymore. It is now too big for me. Odd. I will have to come up with a different one for next year...
2) I have been doing poorly all day. Half due to the weather, half due to medicine that keeps making the world spin the wrong way and keeps knocking me out when it's supposed to be waking me up.
*sigh*
Ah well. Got to spend the day away from school, at
Some of you may remember this entry from like, four years ago.
For those that don't care to read it: I was supposed to have reconstructive jaw surgery back in 2004 to fix a Class 3 malocclusion (underbite) and teeth that are curving inwards towards the inside of my mouth (which is my mouth compensating for a bad bite). This would involve having all my wisdom teeth removed, as well as braces, and then surgery to cut both my jaws and realign them.
Fun, I know.
It's 2010, and I still haven
I ate decent fried chicken for the first time in months. Yum. I ate decent beef for the first time in months. Double yum. I ate decent food for the first time in months. Cafeteria food is icky and blah after a while. I'm actually sleeping for more than 4 hours a night. Very glad for this, as I was so sleep deprived last month I could barely function. FREE LAUNDRY AND NO WAIT. ...stop giving me that funny look, Smeag. :| CAT. :3 This one is important. Seriously. Ask Smeag. Or Tufi. I FINALL
*just got her first English rough of the year critiqued by the class*
Look look, the paper is in unity and flows and everyone understood it, but loooook at all the markings for Niki's awful grammar mistakes, incorrect subject-based contraction usage in formal writing (my fault, I'm lazy), usage of conjunctions to start sentences (again, I'm lazy ><) and incoherent placement of the thesis statement in the second-to-last paragraph rather than the first ("it ruined the whole narrative feel
Fear my poofball trees!
...yeah... the trees in the front need to be taller... and other stuff needs to be fixed...
My sense of perspective stinks. >>

So I found out tonight that, due to frustrating and poorly explained circumstances, I may not be able to get paid from TRU after all.
Niki does not like this. Especially because TRU money is what she was supposed to live off of for the next 90-something days.
Meh.
Happy New Year, everyone.

One of my fellow classmates is not doing too well.
He's a wonderfully smart guy - high grades in all of his classes, pretty sure he was eligble for Dean's List next semester. He attends three of my classes, as well as having previously been my bowling partner back in January/February. Really quiet in large groups, really talkative in a bunch of two or three.
He already wasn't able to return to school. Like I explained a few entries ago, because of our state pulling out all private schoo
How do I know it'll be a busy day?
1) I am currently getting ready for my first meeting of the day, and my last one is supposed to end around 1am.
2) I have to carry two backpacks with me. ;__;

Hey all.
Got a long, stressful week ahead for myself and everyone in my household (reasons being many, many things). In the respect of keeping that stress from entering this blog and thus the website, I shall be taking a break until said stress is at least toned down after this week is over.
Thanks, guys. Please behave and, like always, don't make too much of a mess. Cleaning up is icky.
-Nikira
It is now (I think) 12:00 EST! Hooray! Happy Canada Day, Eastern Coast! =D
~*~
Really quick blog tonight:
I got my bro's SW room done this afternoon, and he's comin' home tomorrow. I really, REALLY hope he likes it. *crosses fingers for luck*
And now I think I'll go to bed.
~Nikira
Whoo for Christmas Break! I gots no school until the 4th of January!
*parties*
And... yeah, my sister and mom just took off for somewhere. I asked them where they were going, and my sis just gave me this really insane grin that she always gives me when she wants to drive me crazy.
Oh, and I have fudge, too! It's really good!
...Yeah...
~Nikira
Yay I get to go home todaaaaaaay.
*would party if she wasn't so flat-out wiped*
Knowing I can sleep the whole drive home is a major comfort right now. Along with the fact of free double-load laundry.
Also, my roomie found my ID card. Woot.
