Apparently, my math class doesn't understand what that word means. "Quiet" isn't in their vocabulary; the concept of "Quiet" is like an unknown language; "Quiet" isn't in their programming; being "Quiet" is inconcivible.
. . . and my parents wonder why my grades in there are low. Imagine trying to take notes in that sort of atmosphere. >_>
My last one before I head to Hawaii. =P
So yeah, I finally wrapped up that BZProvince sub-plot, involving my character, Kagha's, Rockhound's, Xomeron's, and goodness knows how many other people. Hopefully I won't get shot for this.
That's starting today and ending on Easter, and it's happening in the exact same building that BrickCon is hosted in. Not going myself, but I have a TON of friends that have been gathering cosplay elements for weeks now, so they should have fun.
On a semi-related note, I'm finally set to challenge Cynthia in Platinum (hey, my brother borrowed my DS for months; can you blame me for lagging?). I'll beat you today, girl -- I've got a powerful team and I know how to use them. >=D
As if to top off my crummy day, I have to deal with all the people who got Halo: Reach -- which is the one game that made me want to trade in my 360.
Gah. Have fun with it, people; I'll have to wait a while before I can start playing.
(Also, no, I haven't gotten my preordered copy of A Thousand Suns yet -- fail)
So I keep hearing about Nanowrimo from people here that are doing it. It sounds like something I could pull off ... I just have two questions.
What the Karzahni is Nanowrimo, and is it on some website?
My brother finally managed to corner it today around lunch, but then he ran out of Pokeballs. He went, bought more, and tracked it down, but handed it off to me to make a sandwich after he tossed and broke his first ball.
So I picked it up and gave it a shot. And as it turns out, I seem to be better than my bro when it comes to catching legendaries, since I got it on my second Ultra Ball. The look on his face after I showed him was priceless.
It's days like this that make me wonder why I'm even putting up with the Hawkeye.
The editors boxed the rest of us in so we couldn't leave without being assigned to a story first. Apparently, the story I had been working on for a while (the pick-up line story) got assigned to another person without my editor telling me about it. A rather large buzzkill, if you ask me.
So I went and signed up for another. But when I spoke to that editor, she said that it wasn't going to be in the paper for
People who know me know I like writing holiday specials. And I had one -- it's just not something I could post in the SS forum right now.
Technically, that means I don't have one this year, but if you wanted, I could just paste what I have in this entry.
All depends. =D
EDIT: Spoilered for length. It's just a snippit, mind, so don't yell at me.

Over on my end, it's 7:00PM Pacific Time. Since my fam usually celebrates New York midnight, we'll be raising glasses of sparkling cider/champane in two hours.
Now, resolutions. Uusually I never make resolutions for real life, simply because I know I'll forget them. However, my main one is to get all A's/A-'s by the end of either this semester or the school year, so I can get my hands on a laptop.
BZP resolutions, however, are another story.

My school's 16th Jam Session (which kicks off the Winter Sports season, and is traditionally hosted by the school newspaper) is tonight. I'm on Canned Food collection duty tonight. Hours: 2-9 PM.
....
Yah. Don't expect me on at all tonight.
My friend in French class, Jared (who happened to have given me two giant candy bars before winter break), has informed me that I'm crazy because I don't like waffles. (I find this slightly odd, because I've known I'm crazy for years now.)
I told him that was the least of his worries, since I also didn't like: Waffles Pancakes Hamburgers Chocolate chip cookies He wasn't my only classmate to think I was lying about last one. But it's all true.
Well, sorta -- I'm halfway through semester finals, but I somehow managed to crank out another Wings chapter while I was at it, so I guess I made it, didn't I?
(And for those of you yelling "INFERNA GET ON XBOX LIVE RAWR", I might be able to sneak onto the Xbox Wednesday afternoon; if not then, probably Thursday, since it's a half-day and you can't really learn anything on half-days. )
I've got a bit of a problem.
See, I've been overhauling H&H, since I think it could improve it. But I'm not sure if I want to completely erase my original content in the old topic.
Should I just make a new topic for the revamped version, when I'm ready for it?
Since we've gone weeks without a new vote, I'll be announcing the new Second-in-Command for the Toa Seneca. Kini won by a landslide (and is really the most active member out of the nominees ), so he is replacing Akaku. Akaku himself won't be taken off the list, but he'll be mentioned in a part that says "Goodbye".
With that handled, I have something else to think about. I really wanted to keep with the theme of seven for the Seneca, but the original group are a tight bunch.
What do you gu
Apparently Mark cannot read labels written in black Sharpie written on silver duct tape wrapped around the investment can base.
Because I clearly wrote "white bronze" on the label, and in response he poured yellow bronze instead.
>.< I was hoping to finish Zarayna's commission within the next seven days and have it shipped out Saturday after this one, but apparently I'll need to put in a bit more work before that's possible.
First and foremost: *kicks everyone who yelled "This is Sparta!" into pit, since this was BrickCon*
Secondly, that was awesome madness that went down in the Exhibition Hall today. Sadly, I wasn't able to get pictures, since the camera my mom loaned me died when I got there (), so no pictures from me.
That being said, my time at Con today was probably the best out of the three years I've gone, possibly because of the presense of EmperorWhenua. Case in point: Our BZP Meet-and-Greet had a sma
No, this has nothing to do with the Ludacris album of the same name -- it's another Spirit Week at my school, which we have every year.
Monday -- City vs. Country (this might've gone better if we'd known which gender got what theme) Tuesday -- Senior Citizens Day (this oughta be interesting) Wednsday -- Beauty and the Geek Thursday -- Opposite School Day (basically, we wear things for rival schools, like Huskies and Cougers) Friday -- Pink and Blue Day

Yeah, sure, it sounded like the right choice at the moment I read that straightforward PM, and sent my reply back. Flattering offers? You bet. A great honor to be asked? Most likely.
Would I have been able to pull it off, all those responsiblities offered to me, on such a small amount of computer time? Probably not, and that's what I said in my reply. I felt it was the right choice, and it was.
For about five minutes.
Ever since, I've been wondering if I could pull it off in such
I already heard this particular rumor, but apparently while speaking to Oprah, J.K. Rowling hinted she might be writing another book for HP.
I'm not sure if she was talking about the encyclopedia (or, as she called it, the Scottish Book) or an actual novel, but it's interesting to think about.
There's frost covering everything, the puddles are freezing up, I have to start pulling out my sweaters, and the weatherman is calling for a light snowfall next week . . .
*shivers* Just my luck that my high school doesn't have decent heating. <.<
So my mom was home today (she's very much improved from Day One of her accident, though she's still really sore), and spent most of the afternoon watching TV with me -- more specifically, Animal Planet. We watched three straight episodes of Animal Cops, and Mom cringed so often at some of the horrible conditions the animals were in I was surprised she didn't just start crying. Not to say I'm cold-hearted, though -- it's terrible how brutal humans can be to animals. =(
But maybe I should lay o
