On another note, my mom left for a week today. She's going down to... well... the same place that Joyce will be going to school. Which is not so much a coincidence as... the uni is owned by my church. ^^;
On another other note, if any relevant parties are reading this, are you going to Reunion?
...on another other other note, part of me is wondering if I should switch from Yuugi icons to Honey icons. Another part of me is like "but YUUGI-KUUUUUUN!!!!!". (And yes, one of my icons is Ryou, not Yuugi. But a) I'm a heartshipper, and b) Yuugi's the one IN that scene (well, and Miho. =P), so I theorise that he's the one ASKING how much Ryou-kun costs.) I have a thing about not changing things. I've, with minor variations, had the same icons since starting on lj.
Except that the day after, I want to make spaghetti sauce. And the Tuesday after, there's a family birthday party. And a week after (AKA next Wednesday) I might go downtown.
Yesterday was a total lazy day. I did manage to vaccuum downstairs, put one or two things away that were long overdue to be put away, and... ummm... watched the first DVD of both Full Metal Panic and Witch Hunter Robin.
And gained the desire to somehow make Toronto another hot spot for VA-ing. ...I should really try to do some voice acting at some point. >.> (Anyone have stuff they want C-chan to attempt to dub? XDD)
This weekend was the first girlycon in... forever. Like, since Meg's b-day, I think. (which sads me because my birthday was completley skipped over... WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH). It was fun, except I had some sushi that didn't quite sit right. But was fun, and got some interesting photos and a story that might just haunt little Colleen forever. XDDD
We've got new kids starting today. (I think they're all high school, but I could be wrong.... I'm the eldest summer student in this room at 20. -_-.)
XD Wednesday is both my last work day and course registration, and I've lost my booklet. I can still get all the info online, but gaah.
I've gotten all my manditories worked out, so I'll have to map out all my optional stuff.... sometime today or tomorrow. =D
...here's hoping the work they promised me shows up soon!
(and if for some reason, anyone has or knows where to get the MP3 of THIS VERSION of this song (as opposed to the two dozen others in existence), that would be awesome. ^^)
Yes, half the composers are German-speaking but not German (Yay Austria?) but the quiz still wins for being hilarious.
...and I Feel like I've been really having mood waltzes lately..... >.<
But yeah... I need to preamble this post. For the most part, life hasn't been bad lately. A lot of good things have happened, and a lot of the bad came with a lot of good, too.
But my mood has been so up and down lately that... maybe venting would help.
I'll try to post something more positive soon, probably tomorrow or the next day. Sometime when this is all blown over, or I'm at least feeling on the upswing.
I haven't been getting email notifications for comments for over a week now, and it's driving me insane. I rely on those to know what's going ooon. *Sobsobsob*
Seriously. Not getting them is throwing me completely for a loop.
But enough on that.
NAF. This past weekend.
Not gonna go into details now, will probably try to steal some pictures off of a few people and then post with them in a few days *had no camera, herself*.
All I'll say for now, is it was fun, but they really need more organization.
And it provided at least some healing where it was needed for some of my friends. So I'm very glad about that.
And I'm very jealous that some of the host club members that were there technically have their own group out where they are, because I WANT TO COSPLAY WITH THEM MOAR!!!! (Rawr.) (And I still might be able to a bit, but RAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWR)
The thing I mentionned yesterday. I swear. Almost everyone I talked is like "ooh, cool", but is also "I have former plans" or "I has no way of getting there". T_T
I might talk my dad into going. He seemed somewhat interested. Will talk to him more tonight.
GAAAH... I have so much sewing to do for next weekend.... *Shakes fist at fmadressingroom which has been taking over LIFE, and thus is love, but is life-eating*
But if anyone DOES want to go, poke me, and I can either get you in for $24, or show you how to get in for $24, provided you can get to the Roy Thompson Hall by 8pm on Friday and are between the ages of 16 and 29, or know someone you can drag with you who is that age*
Bored at work, might make a few short entries throughout the day.
This is muchly tempting me right now. But it's this Friday and $24/person (Yes, I can get $24 tickets). But it's making me drool. But I have no one to go with. and would have to see about getting money. But--
2) Went to Isabella's today with some co-workers. Just got a chai latte - was a little too foamy for me. But I have now tried it. I also think I know what I want to get there next time I can convince people to go there with me for either a meal or a snack/dessert. Well, the second one is between two things, depending on whether I want something hot or cold. =P
3) I kinda want to make/get something EGL/EGA style now. >.< I wonder how long it would take to get my hair either straight or in perfect ringlets..... (I might manage to get away with just diffusing, but it totally depends on the outfit, I think)
4) There is a bridge right beside the midtown mall that would be awesome for some kind of photoshoot if an angle can be found that makes it look like it's all nature around it. @.@
5) I wanna take pictures there and down behind the Brooklin library now at some ponit. But I don't know as who/what.
6) The other summer students sometimes.... bother me without meaning to. Like... listening to stuff about sex mishaps first thing in the morning without headphones or (one of them) talking about how gay-ness is wrong, and calling TD a gay bank. I don't think it's worth reporting or really speaking up about... it's their oppinion, and they're not trying to say stuff against anyone... but.... yeah.
7) fmadressingroom is far too much fun. Though it makes my SH!Al-muse sad, because he's the only one to nkow any magic at all, and he doesn't know alchemy. And he can't find his nii-san.
8) NAF is in just over two weeks, and I'm just starting to put together a Fruiba group. (If anyone wants to join, just say. XDDD) You'll never guess who I am in that gruop. Never. Ever. In a million years. Especially saying that I play Honey in Ouran. >.> <.< Yes.
9) I need love. *nods*
10) I think I might try making mini-cupcakes. I have no clue if it will work out or not. XD
11) We've officially caught up with work, I think. Meaning there's nothing to do till mail comes in. Unless they train us in something else. (I hope they train us in something else....)
12) The past 24 hours have been so up and down for me. Last night stressed and depressed me, as did this morning, until I got to work. Then the women in the break room (I get to work about an hour early, so I hang out there until it's time for me to actually start) cheered me up. And then annoying stuff happened. And then I got to go to Isabellas and that cheered me up. And then more stuff happened. And now I'm a little down again. >.<
13) Tomorrow is Friday the 13th. Good thing I'm only theatre-supersticious.
14) The cake is not a lie. It was inside you the whole time. =P
Wed, Jun. 11th, 2008, 12:28 pm Another @ work ramble
At work, we always get through the piles of stuff too fast. Meaning that I have time to write lj posts. >.>
I'm kinda hyperventalating now, 'cause I made an error on one of my things, and approved it, and then noticed something. >.< The good thing is, I have no work now, so it's ok that my brain is in shutdown mode. Sort of. So long as it gets out of there by the time we get our next batch of stuffs-to-do.
I've decorated my cubicle a litte bit. I got a little Al plushie keychain thingy (AKA I don't know what to call it, but it is small and has a little chain attached to it) from the dollar store at Market Village (read: the mall beside P-mall) last weekend, it's directly across from me, and is always smiling at me and cheering me up. He was moved around for the first day numerous times, but he's finally foudn his perfect spot. ^^
I want to read some good fics with Honey not portrayed as an annoying gradeschooler. Bit they're so rare, it seems. Well... not to say that he can't act like that at all, 'cause he does, that's part of who he is. But my Mistukuni muse is all like... ".........I'm 18." And.... yeah. Meh. ^^;
I still haven't written much about AN, have I? ^^;; I should, at some point.
Oh, I might be doing a Fruits Basket group for NAF now... if anyone wants to make/rewear something for it. ^^; (There's only, like, 4 of us, but it'll still be fun.)
Also, people coming to NAF, come to the host club! We'll be running both days, and will have lots of nummy treats. And my Honey-muse will get 4-6 hours of guarenteed IC-ness. ^_^ Well... RP-ness. And hopefully IC-ness.
That being said, I tend to act a lot more "Honey" than I do "Mitsukuni", even though in my mind there is a LOT more "Mitsukuni". I think it's because I've only ever done it in a Host Club/interacting with potential clients setting, rather than...... overall. ^^: (That being said, I would probably fail at LARPing through an entire day between................................................. numerous factors.)
XD speaking about NAF, I have to work the day after, but have the Tuesday off after that. Go Canada Day? ^^;;;;;;;;;;;;;
Work's going well, but my emotions are still all over the place at home.
I wonder what it is? >.<
I'm boiling hot, lonely, frustrated, impatient.... the list goes on and on. But I'm not completely unhappy either. i think. there's no need to be. I don't feel emo. Just........... out of it. ish. Yes.
