    What I Need.

    By Noxryn,

    - I need to feel tired when I should go to sleep.
    - I need to feel not tired for when I get up.
     
    It's annoying when this is all backwards, cuz when I can't sleep when I should sleep, then I get bored and hungry (Though I might play ME2 until I can feel tired...). It stinks when I need to get up in the morning and all I want to do is sleep though... cuz, I got places to be, people to see, stuff to do... well, not so much recently (Felt terrible on Wednesday/Late Tuesday... huge headache, pained stomach and throat was all eww, felt better on Thursday though, less of a headache, though my stomach still tries to blow me up, or something... for all I know, my gut decided to concoct some kind of bomb it intends to use for when it conquers the world, but *shrugs*) so I guess for recent stuff, it's a bit acceptable (I mean, all I did do was type up whatever school work I needed to get done -- not a lot, given, it's spirit week and the teachers specifically assign little to no homework over the week, and classwork... it's just been reading, and looking at powerpoints and movies... really. So academically, I'm not really missing much and for what I am missing, I can go and just use up a few free periods to get all that sorted out).
     
    I really wish though, that I felt heavily inclined to work on that SS for Feb... but I didn't, same for RPGs... my mind like, decided to shoot itself and go blank.
     
    Now that I read through this entry, I wonder if this is at all understandable, I mean... I am still somewhat feverish, very hungry (;-; ) and my mind is tired (My physical self lacks that T.T), and I am typing this at one in the morning... and it's Spink, so of course it'll be a pain to try and understand. XP
     
    I see all these spelling errors too... well, they're underlined red by Mozilla, and there's probably half a dozen or more grammar mistakes in there too... but, meh. This is more just to find something to type to kill my boredom, and to try and lull myself to a tired, sleepy state.
     
    It's not working T.T
     
     
     
     
    Oh and... um... >< I forgot.

    Mass Effect Two.

    By Noxryn,

    So it came in the mail today, which was nice, along with the metal case the three discs came in along with the small packet of a hardcover artbook (Which has some really neat pictures in it ) along with this cardboard network card (With how it was promoted, you'd think it'd be like, made of metal or something =P) However, I've only touched upon disc-1, which is the game (I don't know the difference yet) But so far, I find the game pretty fun. Different than the previous game (of course), but I like a lot of the changes. For one, I love the customization with the character armor, cuz I can change all manner of color and add patterns and choose whether or not to use the helmet and such. I also realized that I got to pick "casual" clothing, but that hasn't come into play yet (I screwed up somewhere, and I ended up on the opposite side of the door... and, it doesn't reopen *shrugs*)
     
    But so far, that's all I can say about it. XP

    Images.

    By Noxryn,

    So, I found some new images to switch out my Av/Personal Pic with. I'm not gonna post them just yet though, but I figured bringing it up wouldn't kill me. And I also bring it up just because right now, I lack anything else to really update with, but felt an urge to make a blog entry.

    Oh, Right!

    By Noxryn,

    Recently (In Inferna's Blog XP) I remembered that February is right around the corner, which means that Valentine's Day is approaching. This bit of information alone made me decide to do something for the holiday, given, I didn't do anything for it last year (I wish I joined the SS contest back then) but this year, I think I may be able to use the theme of the holiday and incorporate it into a Short Story (Epics are a bit... well, I don't hold a very good track-record with them ^^;. This isn't so much interesting, as it's just something I can actually blog about (And kill some time with, though, watching Predator 2 at the same time helps XP) It'll be a fun little writing project, anyway, and it'll be a happy one, cuz I did too many sad/depressing-ish ones previously and need to break that trend.
     
    Also: I did update my content blocks... well, two of them. One I just organized a bit more and added code, while with the other I expanded and chose to utterly copy Exo-Fat and have a series of "Achievements" despite the fact that I honestly don't have that many as far as BZP goes, though I just thought that the ones I did have, deserved a bit of a mention somewhere. XP
     
    But yeah, that's about it.

    Hmmmm...

    By Noxryn,

    I seriously need to update my interests list again. I haven't updated it for... like, a year or so, and so many things need to be retconned with it XP
     
    - Also: Interesting surprise coming up. I say interesting, cuz I have no clue if people would really care or not
  7. Noxryn
    So in Biology, we're doing all that genetic stuff, the teacher mentioned that a bird with two beaks was something she never saw before. So, I took it upon myself to doodle such a manifestation, even though the second beak doesn't look like a beak cuz of its placement and also cuz I just rushed the drawing a bit XP
     
    There is a picture, but it is a fuzzy picture cuz cell-phone cameras only go so far. Fabio.

    Whenever...

    By Noxryn,

    Whenever I decide to start writing something, like an actual story for instance, I always get this nagging thought in the back of my head that just says "All this is going to do is sit in the back of your computer's memory, you're not going to show it to anyone, and even if you did, and even if these people said some things about it that didn't change... anything, then what are you going to do with it?" Something kinda like that. What's mostly irritating is that everything I do want to write is something I can't write in Word all on my lonesome, the writing I feel like doing is always in little bursts, which can turn into big bursts, but on things that aren't just things that pop out of my head when I write... as those things, they always need to be fleshed out (If I ever wrote a sci-fi story for instance, I'd have to flesh out -everything- in order for myself to even like it)
     
    Basically, I hold this compulsion to write things... but at the same time, there's this negative thought process behind everything that kills every piece of motivation I'd have. Of course, that just means that I may have gone into a "creative" spurt in a RPG or two, cuz that's generally how I vent my want to write about something fancy when I physically just can't create everything and the situations in a story in which it'd be applicable.
     
    What makes Spink sad is that whenever he gets these creative spurts for RPGs, everyone decides to leave for a week, or lose interest suddenly and then nothing happens and Spink creates an 8700 word document detailing all these things he did with characters and he can't do anything with it and it might end up being completely null and void and then he's screwed over. That, and he's just so bored -- like, blank mind-nothing-he-wants to do bored. Amplified by the novel he read in four hours time and the one he's nearly half through and the fact that he made a blog entry.
     
    And since break is over today I feel like a bunch of meh as I wait for tomorrow, knowing I still need to print off my schedule so I don't screw up half-way through the day, like I did last year =/
     
    And out of nowhere, Spink feels down and sad, and bored enough to just focus on his growing hunger and the inability to get any snacks cuz he's not allowed to touch that stuff until after dinner which is taking forever. ;-;
     
    Spink also feels lonely because everyone decided to randomly vanish.
     
    He also doubts anyone is going to really read this entry because most people probably don't really care about my bored state or the writing issues he ran into.
     
    Bored of reading, bored of games, bored of talking on the phone with people, bored of watching his friends from other states speak in a different language that utilizes the letters of English. He feels crummy that he can't write a story, feels crummy of all the negativity he feels in his head. ;-;
     
    And yeah, I imperfectly shifted between third and first person periodically.

    Off...

    By Noxryn,

    Off to see Avatar on Monday, IMAX 3-D cuz it plays there, and it's like... three miles away so we can actually go. XP
     
    After that, I'm going to go to Borders and get a few books I've been wanting for a little while now. So yay
     
    *No one cares*

    3/7

    By Noxryn,

    Finished three out of seven finals today. Got home 12:30, tried out ODST and got bored from that game -- though, I find Ghosts of Onyx to be an interesting book, despite the common spelling errors I've been noticing in the book itself. But regardless, I find military sci-fi interesting.
     
    But for the Finals themselves, I found them very easy.

    Budging In Line.

    By Noxryn,

    Is very inconsiderate and very rude to others and is very stupid -- especially when said budging could cost upwards of $2000 in repairs and even more in lawsuits.

    Sick.

    By Noxryn,

    I feel like a lot of bleh right now, been sleeping for like... five hour long periods during the day and I still feel a bit tired. On top of that, I had to miss four days of school (including tomorrow ><, mainly because if I do magically get better, I'm still not allowed on school property for another 48 hours), which means while I have my mushy mind I had to do all the work they did, though I had to learn the material from other sources (Online databanks).
     
    So I finished seven review packets in three four hour sittings. This is fifty pages in Microsoft Word that I need to print off (Also have my Powerpoint I had to print off, another 12 pages) and I still have some other assignments I need to work on. This is so stressful ;-;
     
    But Finals next week, and even if I feel like I'm going to die I'm going (Unless my brain is mush, then I'd be better off not going and taking during the make-up hours). I do feel pretty confident about the Biology and English and World Geography, and PE, and Graphic Design Finals... not so much my French and Math Finals. I just need to study Math over the weekend a bit more, same with French (But with French I get an extra day to study ^^).
     
    I hope I do good on these tests ._.
     
    *Has been living off of soup, water and the company of online friends for the last few days*
     
    In other news, tomorrow is the start of the Holidays, for me at least, which means that my family is going to try to have a nice dinner and stuff (Really depends how I'm feeling... been getting worse and worse ._.), and on the first night of Chanuka (Or Hannuka/Hanuka/Hanukka, however it is you spell it... has too many variations <<) I'm getting a gift, same with my sister. On the second day it's my mother's birthday, already put something together through the programs of Word and Paint -- makes me wish I had Illustrator/Photoshop though. (It's a winter/holiday poem with some scenery around the borders, spent.... absolutely forever on it).
     
    For my dad's birthday (I need to remember the exact day... he doesn't bring it up as much year by year and hasn't really talked to me about it ><), I bought him a fancy new Rolex (Mainly cuz he was complaining about his really krumsy watch... and I'm not buying him a book. He has this very specific taste in a very vague section in Borders .-.)
     
    Then after next week, I'm on Winter Vacation. Which will be really nice.
     
    (As a side note; even if I screw up my Finals horribly so, the lowest grade I can get in each class is a solid B or a B- as screwing up the final reduces the grade by one letter.)

    Surprise Final.

    By Noxryn,

    Turns out that I'm taking part 1 of two of my Graphic Design Final today. Actually, right now... I have the bare-bones design in a window, but I'm not allowed to expand upon it until tomorrow (yay...) so there's not much else for me to do than to go into my blog and just mention how much I didn't expect it to be right now, so I wasn't exactly ready for a "Design a ___ for this." But, it's nothing I need to study for -- just memorization on how to properly use the program and how to get whatever I make to appeal to my teacher.
     
    (Making a Logo for the school's Digital Media & Technology Academy... can't have any basis in the real world <<;;

    Bleh.

    By Noxryn,

    I feel all bleh today. Especially in PE, during the entire class I felt like there was something lodged in my throat, and with running for ten minutes then more exercises after that, it makes me light-headed feeling and nauseous. Didn't start feeling weird until after I ran for the ten minutes. It also changed my mood, from like, happy that it was last period, to really aggravated over something I do not know of. It was rather... weird.
     
    But now I feel better, which is good.
     
    Also: Finished Neon Genesis Evangelion, except for one of the movies cuz I can't find it on any site, so I might order it off of Netflix... despite how much I don't like them <<
     
    Also Also: I started doodling again in this sketchpad/book thingy I had last year during art class (I really wish Art had been an elective this year ;-; ). As I went through it, I remembered all of the assignments from last year (duh), but I also found some old character drawings I did of RP-Chars, more to get the robotic/mechanical aspect of things down, which means that it was mainly Bionicle RPG characters (Kri for instance, people who played in NoI would remember her), and some funky helmet thingy I made.
     
    There was also a ship that looked confused as to what it was.
     
    But yeah.
     
    I started to draw up one of the Angels from Evangelion, cuz this one specifically looked cool (The first one encountered in the anime, by the viewer... can't remember its name). I actually like how I shaped it -- looked spot-on, but when I started to fill in details... yeah, that's where I crashed and burned XP

    What Is Really Nice.

    By Noxryn,

    Somehow, by some incredibly weird stroke of magical luck, I found a twenty in the parking lot of Borders, cuz we were going there due to my sister wanting to get some stuff on sale [The Maximum Ride manga series, to be exact... which were like, five bucks a piece, with being half off]. So, with this almighty magical twenty dollar bill, I could buy stuff. What did I buy?
     
    Well, after reading the first volume of Neon Genesis: Evangelion, I decided to get some more of the series -- the first four books (Five dollars a piece, some were cheaper).
     
    I like the series, and it's abudance at Borders. And the fact that Borders had the first series, out of... I think three manga series, or so. Not entirely sure. (Did a bit of research on it when I saw two volumes labeled "1" XP)
     
    But, I like it so far. *Has only read the first of the four volumes he bought*
     
    And this nearby Borders has like, all the manga I had on my list to read. Which is nice, plus the fact that they're around $7 - $9 makes them affordable. *Does not like reading inside of Borders due to just feeling awkward*

    Unhappiness.

    By Noxryn,

    Sitting in a bus, for twenty extra minutes, having just been beaten the karz out of via playing a hockey goalie, then walking half a mile home in forty degree weather with a T-shirt, coming home just to have to put up with a little sister who started to throw things around and make a scene does not make for a happy Spink.
     
    I am cold. I am wet with sweat. I have assignments. And I feel miserable.
     
    This is why I hate Mondays.
     
    On another note, I've been recently informed that for Thanksgiving, it's just going to be me, my mother and my sister.
     
    And I was so excited to see the family again. T.T

    Macadamia Nuts.

    By Noxryn,

    So, there was this whole, intriguing event that occurred within the very confines [if AIM is considered a "confine"] of BZPower. Apparently, our fearless leader Black Six dislikes the Macadamia nut. I have heard this from a few sources (Like this one).
     
    Just an intriguing, little oddity I noticed and read about.

    I started to IM myself, cuz I am that bored and the music I listen to is failing to help me think of a way to continue this story.
     
    Cuz, two days ago, I started a SS for the Bionicle SS forum, cuz I was bored... and then, I got to a point and have no clue what to do. The fact that I just made it up as I went along, is probably one of the contributing factors...
     
    But, while IMing myself, I realized how big my text is when I get it back.
     
    It's a lot bigger than size 1, and I don't like that very much.
     
    *Continues on with listening to the SAW theme*
  21. Noxryn
    So, my computer recovered from its incident with the water. The only issue I have with it now, is the keyboard being rather... different feeling, like the buttons are harder to press or something. Maybe that's just because I got used to two different keyboard configurations over the last two days... I think that's probably what this is.
     
    But it's great to know that now I don't need to dig up the warranty, nor do I need to shell out money to get it replaced!

    Computer.

    By Noxryn,

    My personal computer was destroyed by the cat, as she decided to give a glass of water a very rough shove with her head... even though she knows that being on the table is not allowed <<
     
    So, I am currently using my sister's computer [Which is really screwed up...].
     
    Today, overall, hasn't really gone well.
     
    -EDIT: Oh, and probably all of my writing projects are gone now. Or will be, in the recovery process... unless a drenched computer isn't as bad, memory wise, as a computer full of viruses.

    Halloween.

    By Noxryn,

    My neighborhood has absolutely no Halloween spirit. It sucks, to say the least.
     
    However, I still dressed up and prowled the streets with my little sister.
     
    It got boring real fast, though... cuz, we were the only two people out there.

    Na No Wri Mo.

    By Noxryn,

    I've decided that I most definitely will be participating in this. The goal, for me, is to write a coherent, 50,000+ word story within the course of the month November. Though, I'd personally be happy if I got past 10,000 words [As that'd be the farthest I ever wrote a single story, thought up on the spot]. I think, that I might make it past 30,000 if I'm really into the idea, though I'll probably end up around the 15,000 mark [Due to school, other writing projects, and the like].
     
    It just sounds like fun, pretty excited to get started on it, and hopefully there won't be any huge-school projects this month. That'd be a plus.
     
    So far, I do have a single idea that I think I can turn into a 50,000 word story... it won't be very good, but then I can always edit it after the deadline, and maybe even get it onto an amazing level -- a level that I need to get to, some day XP
     
    But... well, yeah. Not much else to say.
