TOTALLY forgot to send my transcript from CU to Metro... =_=;; Can't get 'em all, but that one's pretty important huh...

Oh, and I forgot to contact my bank and let them know that I was going to be in Taiwan... eeek! Will do that in LA tomorrow. :3

Well, if I get a chance to put up pics of Taipei and etc., I will. Wish me a good trip, friends! ^_^ ♥

...regarding a friend who just saw The Dark Knight but did not see Batman Begins... or any other Batman movie for that matter.

me: my friend just watched dark knight
me: BUT NEVER SAW BATMAN BEGINS
me: WTF
Brett: hahaha
Brett: What is a "Batman"!?
me: i'm like.... slightly disgusted
me: hahahahahah I KNOW RIGHT
me: it's the first batman movie he has ever seen
me: ...
me: and it like, sets the tone for the dark knight
Brett: yeah, it's a solid movie and works well with the new one
me: that's like skipping sex and going straight to the cuddling
me: you're missing out on what set the mood
Brett: hahahahaha
me: lol
me: speechless i see
Brett: well I don't know if I'd favor that particular analogy
Brett: unless you like cuddling better than sex
me: oh true
Brett: which I guess is possible, if James is like...super fuckin` cuddly
me: that's like... having your celebratory cigarette without the sex
me: HAHAHAHAHA
Brett: I'd say it's more like dessert without dinner
me: hm
me: eh but i like dinner better
Brett: you like cigarettes better than sex?
Brett: I don't even know you any more Kris Mercado
me: yeah but you enjoy the cigarette a ton b/c you're like
me: FUCK THAT WAS AWESOME
me: the cigarette is like the icing on the cake
Brett: yeah, but it has to be two things that are interconnected but can be had separately
me: you can't celebrate anything if you never did the deed
me: ok fine
Brett: your metaphors are awful
me: how about sex with a hooker.... then sex with your FAVORITE hooker
me: lol
Brett: okay
Brett: done
Brett: awesome
Brett: your metaphors are amazing
me: and suddenly, i am again the favored child
Brett: Truly, you know the way to an English majors heart - hookers and metaphors
Brett: but especially metaphors involving hookers

Long but...well yeah, I guess it's a long read. BUT I COULDN'T CUT ANY OF IT BECAUSE IT WAS SO FUNNY. Or maybe only to me. :'(

Shit to do before I leave for Taiwan (i.e., get it done today b/c I won't be home tomorrow):

1. get stamps
2. pay mortgage
3. clean and put away dishes
4. take out trash
5. pay Comcast
6. pay Lowe's bill for fridge and stove
7. pick-up travel stuff and book(s) at Target
8. finish packing except for necessary toiletries
9. pick up Rx at King Soopers
10. do general sweep/pick-up of condo

*screams internally*

EDIT: And now, all that is left is the cleansing. lol

Things I Am Very Determined To Do Today:

1. make myself dinner
2. start packing--just start at least
3. write check for mortgage
4. pay Lowe's bill for stove and fridge
5. take care of any Rx needed before trip
6. make Hall of Fame on Rock Band with my lovely bandmate, Dustin

I think one of these conflicts with the rest. lol

And I'm starting to realize how potentially poor I could be when I get back from Taiwan if I don't watch my spending out there... @_@

I miss you ♥

Next time, when I give the phone to someone else to talk to you--I still want to talk to you afterwards! Stupid... :P

My stomach feels like shit, my head is throbbing and I've got the shakes.

Yes, sir, this is hangover central--but very well-earned, I assure you.

Now if you'll excuse me while I pass out and hope that I'll feel less horrible when I wake up...

I don't even want to talk about work today. Really, I don't.

I wanted to jump into my happy shoujo manga world, where things are usually fixed in a chapter. But I couldn't have that, seeing that one of my favorite manga that I follow is currently pissing me off.

Anyhow, I'm just in a shitty mood today, and I'm irreversibly embittered by the amount that I work and the lack of pay I receive for it. I'm annoyed at the fact I studied my ass off in college and now I'm wasting away at a shitty job that requires none of the things I learned. I know, whine whine bitch bitch whine, would you like some cheese with that whine, yeah, what the fuck ever. I swear when I wake up tomorrow morning it'll be a clean slate, because that's how I do. But for now, for July 14, 2008, WTF I HATE IT.

I want today to be over already, and I just got home from work. T_T

I'm... blinded by how awesome SquareEnix is. lol

behold... teh AWESOME.

Yet ANOTHER way to spend more time with fictional characters instead of experiencing the real world. Thanks, guys! *thumbs up*

This weekend was hectic, but I managed to get everything done that I wanted to--worked at the restaurant for two days, cleaned house, did laundry, paid bill(s), hung out with everybody I planned to BUT... I didn't make it to the gym because I have a killer headache [that is probably not being helped by being at the computer]. =_= I did end up playing Rock Band with Dustin though... our band name is "Moar QQ" hahaha. :D (We're an all-girl band, too. IT FITS!)

Although... I still hate Aaron and Chris for tricking me. (That's right, Jupi, I KNOW YOU READ THIS!!!) Aside from that, Kung Fu Panda kicked total ass, like I knew it would. ^_^

Think I'm gonna simmer down even more with a book before I go to bed--historical fiction, anyone? ^_-

Why is this popular?



I saw this at AX ALL OVER... @_@ And I still don't get it...

(and yes, I chose the Yoko+Kamina one on purpose ♥ )

Just had a fun night-- watched Wall-E with Dustin (BEST MOVIE EVER OMG!!) and played some Rock Band... I convinced him to buy El Scorcho by Weezer and Hysteria by Muse and we totally rocked it out... I got 100%, yay. :D And I attempted I'm So Sick by Flyleaf but definitely didn't sound angry... just timid. o_o; Anyhow, Wall-E is an amazing movie, and probably my favorite of all the Pixar movies so far... how do they do it? It's just a beautiful story, and it makes me choke up to think of some of the scenes; a few people I've talked to have complained about the lack of dialogue but I think it's beautiful. A lot of times, we get caught up in words and what they might imply instead of what the person in front of us really means... I think that's why this movie impacted me so much. (I am full of words, all the time, after all. lol) But yeah, I managed to fight through to the end without crying... until the end =_=; I knew I would, so I brought tissues... hehehe.

I wanted to note on here that a year ago, when I initially saw the preview, I was so nonplussed about the project and I was wondering what the hell Pixar was thinking. Now I really believe they've set the bar again. ^_^ ♥ I can't wait to buy this movie... seriously. :)

There are a lot of movies I'm looking forward to in the coming weeks, which is strange, because I usually hate movies: The Dark Knight (HELL YES), Kung Fu Panda (haven't seen it yet, heard it's hilarious), Mamma Mia! (yes, I ♥ ABBA, and no, I'm not ashamed)... I'm watching Wanted tomorrow with Crystal as well. @_@ This is more movies than my usual 2-a-year allotment... oh well. All in good fun... and I still have my student ID so I'm totally macking on the discounts until it expires. ^_^

And lastly... Kenny found more pictures of us online! Here are links! ^_^ ♥
