For those of you wondering about my random change in theme...an explanation of sorts! Ah, loverly.
I've noticed lately that I'm at a point in my life where the world is starting to open up. The observations I make every day make the world a little more exciting. The choices I make every day make the world a little different. I'll get my driver's license soon. I'll start getting together material for college applications soon. I'll have to try to decide on a major, at least to start out
So I woke up this morning and guess what? Dizzy spell! Oh, the obscene irony.
...but I got to watch Atlantis: The Lost Empire again. I love those characters so much.<3 Audrey and Packard and Cookie and Dr. Sweet and Mole and Helga and Kida and Milo and oh, whatshisname...Vinny! Yes, Vinny.
And for those of you who may not know what I'm rambling about...here. Just another one of those old animated Disney movies. Not as good as Treasure Planet or classics like The Lion King, of cou
Well, I went to see a neurologist today in my quest to discover the cause of the dizzy spells which I've been having randomly since a year ago. After being poked, prodded, and questioned, I have a new set of doctors to see. Whee. I just wish we could figure out what my problem is already...but at least the doc was nice. Apparently, she also saw me at the Marching Festival last week.xD It's such a small world!
What else have I been doing?...well, tests. Tests, timed writings, etc, etc.
I have none.
Can some responsible person come smack me over the head so I can go study for the PSAT? I need to do well so I can get scholarship monies. Otherwise, I fear my parents (mostly my mom) may disown me.
Also, thoughts on new blog tagline? Blueberry or strawberry? Cats or dogs? Yes? Mudkips? 42? Your mom?

*waves from Planet Homework*
Hey everyone. Life pulled a fast one on me again. My mom has been a total pain lately...she's been having mood swings in which she's generally been disproportionately angry (mostly with me, it seems like) and she's kinda made my life miserable. Which is sad, because I feel that in other areas, like academically and socially, I've made so much progress and effort, but then she tears me down and acts like being human, or more accurately, myself, is an evil act.
This.
I HAVE THREE NEW BOOKS TO READ BUT NO TIME TO READ THEM IN. Oh, the twisted irony. Out of the Silent Planet by C.S. Lewis (which I'm actually about a third of the way through...an interesting book which my dad showed me while in the bookshop and said "This looks good and it's by the guy who wrote the Chronicles of Narnia" so I bought it.) Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson (found it in a church sale for like, three bucks, so I HAD to buy it. And furthermore, the sponsor from my club
I seem to keep forgetting about BZPower...okay well, I'm just lazy. I'd like to give the SSCC an official apology for my being an imbecile...I keep committing to things I don't have time for and then abandoning them. It's one of my weaknesses, I'm afraid.:/
But yeah. I'm marooned on Planet Homework and the natives are restless. The rations of M&M's are getting low also. I need to pester the Mother ship to send me some more. Excuse me while I go construct a satellite.
Not to w
I have nothing to say in this blog.D:
OH NOEZ.
...oh look, it's almost the end of September. How did that happen? Time just seems to be chasing me wherever I go, beating me over the head with ferrets and screaming "I AM PASSING AS FAST AS POSSIBLE LOL." It's not that there aren't enough hours in a day so much as it seems I'm forced to waste them. For example, today I got called to the office and spent a good twenty minutes or so waiting to resolve an issue that took two minutes to fix.
See LK? I got my PMship renewed like a good little girl!
Just a general update on how things stand:
-Got sick again Friday, so I missed a bunch of work and basically did homework all night every night this week.
-Junior year is really intense. Srsly.
-Local ren-fest coming up. Really want to go to that, I've never been to one before.
-Have to march in the local parade tomorrow with the band. Wheeee.
-Want to see 9. SO BADLY. Who DOESN'T like post-apocalyptic movies about adorab
Do you remember those? Those delectable, buttery sweet, peanut-shaped sandwich cookies with peanut butter stuff in the middle?? Delightfully crunchy and OH so cute?
...yeah I found some at Target. Oh, sweet, peanut-buttery reminiscence. *noms*
I also remember that I used to eat a lot of those little snack packs that had the little cracker sticks and a containter of cheese...stuff, that you were supposed to dip the crackers sticks in. Except, I remember that I always ate the sticks pl
...wait, what? So the forums are back now?O_o That was...unexpected.xD
HAI GUYS. So like, it's time for a massive update, ya know? YIPPEE-KII-YAAY!
Raia is:
-17 as of last Thursday
-A Junior in High School as of last Friday
-Braces-less as of...um...well, I got my braces off during the downtime. Whatever.>>
-Busy as heck
-Pit Captain...technically. But I didn't get an official Captain t-shirt. Boo.
-Finally taking an art class <3
-Too busy loving on her new t
I'm getting my braces off in two weeks!
...and in other news--because EVERYONE ELSE has an entry on this-- I'm not sure when I'll go see Harry Potter; I know I won't be going to the midnight showing, my parents would never let me.>< Shoot, my mom won't even let me go to the 6:15 pm showing tomorrow. Soooo we shall see. In any case, I am SO PSYCHED for this.<3
Also people, I need ideas for Brickfair art, kthx. Band camp is coming up and I won't have much time to be arting, so
Let's just say I got a -bit- carried away wrapping this poster as a birfday present...
It says Cleansweep 7 on the handle. *snicker* FEAR THE HARRY POTTER REFERENCE-NESS OF IT ALL.
While we're on this subject, we bought some pears at Walmart yesterday. You should know what that means. But first, I must find some lovely nice brown fabric.D:
Also this:
Figured out a rough color scheme for that Kopaka pic. Yes, I know it's messy; but I can't be bothered with neatness, I deed
I'm thinking about -maybe-, -possibly-, making some art to send off to Brickfair.
...
What are your thoughts on this matter?
Also, ideas. Something awesome, but not too difficult to pull off-- simple, yet iconic of the Bionicle fandom. Also I have to be able to draw it as a traditional Bionicle drawing...I don't think HB would work too well for this.xD I was thinking maybees I would draw Mata Nui...but that seems too obvious. I dunno.0: But I need to decide really quick, cuz I'll b
I've decided that I need a t-shirt that says "I was a hippie BEFORE it was cool." It's just so true, and it would just make my weirdness so much more awesome and quote-worthy.
...and yes, I am sort of a hippie...a bit...I'm a hippie/band geek/nerd/eccentric artist/loner freak mix.
That explains a lot, doesn't it.
-Raia-
...HP6. B) Also I spawned a wee first-year Harry drawing last night.:3
Please excuse the giant "TB"-- it stands for Talebringer, my dA username. Just in case you were wondering...not that anyone really cares what I post here anymore. Bah. Me and my blog and my life are too boring and pathetic, nobody wants to talk to me anymore, and I have no irl friends except maybe one, but she's "too busy," etc...lalalala...
I'm just going to go crawl off and draw some more. Still working on colo
Just another sign of the apocalypse.;D
So I needed something to do, and this happened on me. Kopaka Mata, in case you couldn't tell. I <3 his furry hood.:3
Will be colored. Eventually.>.>
-Raia-
...to bring you some random! Because I hate to see this place rot.:< I have no ideas for wacky entries anymore...so we are interrupting the program of BLAH with some random Raia facts that are random, and not even possibly relevant to anyone except me, and if you're lucky, you'll find them entertaining.^^
This is only temporary programming...I have art coming soon.0: HONEST TO GOODNESS, GENUINE BIONICLE ART.
...okay I kinda lied, it's HB.>.> But still! It's not even Glitch-re
So my mom kept going on about how hot it is outside, and not to go out for no good reason, blahblahblah. So I was going to get the mail, cuz I needed to mail a letter anyway. So I go down the street to the mailbox. So then I realized...
..I forgot the key.
Faaaaaail.
I think I need to get my brain checked...>.>;
-Raia-
I totally forgot about posting this art here...bad Raia! Bad, BAD Raia.
Linketh
Tachi fanart (YES, IT'S HB, for Mata Nui's sake!), and was also LK's birfday present.=3 Shall I post my first art topic since before the BZPocalypse? And if I do, will anyone post in it? All comments, cookies, hugs, etc are appreciated.;D
And for those I KNOW WILL ASK...'twas sketched in pencil, then scanned and colored in Paint.NET.
-Raia-
*dusts off blog* Oh, hey guys.^^ Sorry I haven't been blogging rabidly as per usual...just nothing interesting going on in my life right now. Just some breakdowns and unreturned phone calls and a lot of boredom/angst. Also doodling.
...so anyway, I went and hung around Borders yesterday evening.
They now carry Edward Cullen dolls.
-.-;
-Raia-
...now excuse me while I twitch on the floor for a bit. I always forget how insane my family vacations are.xD
Not to worry tho, I had a blast despite being stuck in close proximity with my crazy clan for nine days straight. New Mexico is -awesome-. We stayed in Santa Fe and to Albuquerque, and we made some day-trips to some other towns. Santa Fe was by far the best; my mom and I explored Old Town and met a lot of wonderful people, saw some beautiful crafts, learned about the local cultu
My new Sansa Fuze came in-- a mere TWO DAYS before my departure. What kind of luck is that? Raia is NEVER lucky.0:
Well, may as well enjoy its shininess while I wait for the other shoe to drop.
