HAPPY THANKSGIVING! :D

Appropriate icon is appropriate. *^^*

I am so ready for pumpkin pie. :D

Of course I get sick on Friday night and am just starting to shake it off on Sunday night. I typed all my symptoms into webmb and it told me I was pregnant. >_<; NOT HELPFUL.

As long as it's not swine flu, my roommate will murder me if she gets it.

The mad dash for finals has begun, the last round of papers and speeches is nearing it's end. School will be completely over by the 15th. Thanksgiving break will help immensely.

I'll get to see my babies (XD). Sara has been showing off all of the games they teach at preschool and the twins have started walking (Sophia is already running), so I am prepared to be bombarded with AWEEEEEEE moments. Not to mention Mary's hair is now almost to her waist with curls. I'm hoping she lets me have some fun with it. Probably not, two-year olds aren't known for having enough patience to sit there while you play with their hair.

I have been loving Glee. It reminds me a lot of when I was wrestling. The whole experience of being the school team that gets completely ignored and shafted in terms of funding and support. Of course, the music is also great. Not to mention one particular hot piece of man-meat. *points to icon* He is not exactly a person of great moral fiber (getting a girl drunk on wine coolers and then getting her pregnant WTF) but he is pretty to look at. *^^* He's the guy to ogle at from a safe distance.

I'm out of Pepto Bismol. XP

Spoilers for Naruto chapter 472.

I just got off the phone with [info]lowbatterie who agreed that I haven't been posting enough. This was after she was done laughing at the situation. Not that a blame her. I'm sure when I look back this will be hilarious. Right now I kind of want to put a bag over my head and cry.

Here's what happened.

For the last few months I've been practically living on [info]fanficrants It's pretty funny what some people consider to correct biology and grammar. Anyway, it's a pretty big time community, so I've been nervous about posting and commenting. I finally worked up the courage to start commenting, and then on Nov. 5th I made my first post.

*Spoilers for Romeo x Juliet*

The post was about an Anime version of Romeo and Juliet. I fell in love with the characters and ended up praying that they got a better ending. While an episode was loading, I wanted to get an idea of how big the fandom was, so I decided to check out the summaries for the fic at ff.net. A summary gave away the ending.

I was pretty pissed. I think that spoilers shouldn't be in summaries. So I posted it as a rant. Here it is. I thought that it would be cool if I got a few comments along the lines of LULZ. But wow.

It exploded. Over 170 comments of heated debate over what constitutes a spoiler. *facepalm* People were getting really nasty toward each other so I decided to just let them have it out. I made five comments along the lines of, "My bad, calm down." and just watched the debate fizzle out. There, over.

Then, guess what I found today?

I GOT WANKED. HARD.

D8 You have to fuck up pretty bad to get on fandom_wank

Over 400 comments on that one so far. Some of which are:

"spoiled by reading the summary of a fanfic? A fanfic of something you plan on reading or watching? Avoid the damn fanfic until you're all caught up with the canon! This isn't difficult! *uses one of her "Extreme Disapproval" icons for good measure*"

"I think it bears mentioning that the anime series that Auburnmaven is complaining about having spoiled for her? Is Romeo x Juliet.

Because really, that's amazing."


...

;_;

I honestly have no idea what to say. Ouch. My face is the same shade as my hair. I think I'm just going to back away slowly and whimper in the corner.

Well, that's it, I'm in my dorm.

My roommate is super nice.

I just heard some kid making coyote noises outside the girls' windows. Nice.

I felt like a bundle of nerves most of the day, but now I'm kind of excited. XD

I kind of love how at the at the first residence hall meeting, the student advisers felt the need to point out that being caught having sex in the dorm would have severe consequences.

Got to love catholic school.

Here's to a whole new chapter in our lives!

So much for cheering myself up.

Since all the getting ready for college stuff has cause me to get all moody and weepy, I've been listening to the Goblet of Fire audio book while packing to cheer myself up...

I completely forgot about Cedric! *cries a sad cry*

It's not that I forgot that he died, it just took me by surprise because it's been so long.

On the bright side, I'm almost done with the EPIC-PACKING-FIASCO.

...

;_;

This is getting very frustrating.

No matter how much I pack, the amount of stuff that still needs packing for college never seems to change.

My Mom was walking by and (seeing the mess that now remains), had this to say to my stepfather:

Her room is like the TARDIS, the inside is much bigger than it looks...


I move in this coming WEDNESDAY. I've also managed to make things worse for myself by agreeing to an all-day babysitting gig tomorrow for a single mother in the neighborhood. (She BEGGED, her first babysitter backed out and she had to work, what was I supposed to say?)

It would be best to get rid of this whole waiting until the last minute thing before college.
