silentdescant: (oh crap)
1 hr until paper is due. it is 1.25 pages when it SHOULD be 4-7 pages.

i suck.

also, i have a bloody nose, WTF? *gets tissues*
silentdescant: (craphole island)
*sigh*

I finally went to bed around 3am. *headdesk* I'm honestly not worried about my own journal and most of the comms that I'm a member of being affected by this mess. For some reason, though, I've been following the whole thing closely and I even made a link-post of my own! Why? No idea. I guess to make it easier for me (and hopefully you) to stay in the loop. So anyway, after an hour this morning of checking things out and updating links, I'm gonna do my usual random RL post.

Yesterday: had auditions - only two people came in (I'm not counting the two 5-year-olds, but they were so adorable), so we had to cast them. Filming starts on Sat, and we don't have half the cast set yet... >.< Also, the evil producer girl was acting decidedly un-evil, which unnerved me a bit. Maybe she was in a bad mood when she sent that email? Maybe her English is really that bad? Dunno. But she was acting perfectly polite and everything, so. Strange.

Today: ack, English paper due by tonight! Oh noes! Also, class today - meeting in groups (again, oh joy.). I still haven't taken detailed notes on the movie we're analyzing (The Butterfly Effect). I'll have to do that before noon...

3 more weeks of school (or thereabouts). I really cannot wait for summer.

also! At the end of my second week of Weight Watchers, I'm down another 2 pounds. I'm feeling rather good about this. :D

eta: OMG. I totally forgot that there was a test today in Media. Fucking hell. *facepalm*
silentdescant: (omgwtf)
I'm barely even involved in this fandom crisis, yet somehow I've become the source of information for a few people. *facepalm* [livejournal.com profile] giddy_london explained to me what was going on, and I (of course) immediately had to find out everything I could. Therefore, I'm compiling a list of the journals and posts that I got my information from. Hopefully this purge won't affect LotR or LotRPS too much, although Wood'cest might possibly have a few issues. The only way this even relates to me is through HP (via Weasley twincest) and Lost (via Pace'cest).

First of all, a to do list for you: delete trigger-words such as "incest" and "pedophilia" (yeah, like you guys have that listed. /sarcasm) from your interest list. Also, delete explicit icons involving minors, or just explicit icons if your especially cautious. Then, if you have any fics or images involving incest, friends-locking seems to be the general consensus for safety precautions.

Now that that's out of the way, on to the real information. (note: I'm adding ?style=mine to all of these because honestly, some layouts just make my eyes bug out, especially this late at night. Also, even though I'm embedding the links in the text, there's a list at the bottom for copy/paste-ing ease.)

beneath a cut because this is pretty damn long )

More personal stuff: I've f-locked my (two) Weasley twincest fics, cleaned up my interest list a bit, and double-checked my profile for anything "illegal". Otherwise, my journal is staying public, at least for the time being. The only comm I'm a member of that would be directly involved in this purge is [livejournal.com profile] twin_trouble, which, despite having "incest" absolutely everywhere in the userinfo (eta: the mod has fixed up the userinfo and interests), is still up and running. O.o

Also, in the midst of all this, I somehow managed to get 29 out of 30 on my psychology quiz. Go me! lol

ETA: To make everybody feel better, [livejournal.com profile] bloodrayveness has posted a spam of cat macros. (for more, click the 'catspam' tag) *giggles*

ETA4: If your journal is fandom-related, join [livejournal.com profile] fandom_counts. There aren't any posts there, it's just a comm to count how many journals are fandom-related. Also, if you have a paid account, there is [livejournal.com profile] fandompays.

auditions

May. 29th, 2007 04:34 pm
silentdescant: (to do list)
ok i must've caught a writing bug or something, 'cause srsly, i've been writing like, non-stop all weekend. >.<

auditions went pretty well. we pretty much had to cast everyone that walked through the door, though, because we start filming on Sat and nobody was turning up for the auditions. >.< but oh, these two 5 year old boys came in to read for the little brother and omg they were cute. we couldn't stop laughing the whole time. oh, and evil bitch woman wasn't being bitchy at all. which kinda made me nervous.... O.o

i have an hour before class, and luckily class is going to end early today. i also have a quiz that i have to study for and take before 11pm. >.< how many more weeks until summer? only a few, right? right?

so here's my plan: go to the cafeteria, (or the cafe because it'll probly have better food), eat, study a bit, come back here and take the quiz, then write for the remainder of the time before class.

*headdesk*

eta: yes, everybody who's anybody is posting about this, but WTF LJ? it seems comms that feature "incest" and other "illegal" interests are being suspended. some mods are temporarily deleting their comms to get away from the whole purging business. i'm wondering if that's what's happened to [profile] wewalk, the Charlie/Liam Lost comm? it has been pretty silent for a while, though.
silentdescant: (Default)
i have to set up a table to get people to participate in my psychology experiment. omg. >.< why can't i just KNOW 20 people? this is gonna be awful, i can tell. i'm going to give a piece of candy to everyone that participates. *hides*

tiffany!!! if you see this before about 2:30 today, i'll be in the cafeteria. pls join me if you're on campus. *clings* and if you're not, then i'll see you on friday. where i will be recruiting you to participate, lol.

ps: if i find a way to do this experiment online, i'm totally gonna have you guys do it. even if i can't use the data for my report. >.< because it would be cool, and i like data. *giggles*

***

eta: I LOSE AT LIFE. sat in the cafeteria for about an hour, I think, and I got 2 people. INCLUDING MY MOM. >.< it was teh awful, as I suspected it would be. and now I still have to find about 10 people, not including my co-op friends. SO MUCH FAIL, SRSLY.

and finally, I love you all. :) Thanks for being here and everything. /sappy omg >.<

silentdescant: (damn near poetic)
am sick. sneezing, coughing, and what feels like a fever. blahhhh. haven't been replying to comments, and i'm sorry about that. i keep meaning too, but there's just too many to deal with at the moment.

test went well. think i did alright. now i just have about 3 other tests coming up, and my brain isn't working at the moment. and i keep misspelling simple things like 'brain' omg. eta: omg i cannot spell at all.

i hate life. i want to sleep, i want to breathe without having a coughing fit, and i want my nose to stop running. and i want this quarter to be over. i want school to be over, which isn't like me. i like school, usually. i want to go to sleep and not wake up for about a week -- or more, whatever--, and not have to worry about all this fucking crap when i do wake up. and i want some bloody tea that doesn't taste like liquid sugar. i wanna just give up for a while.

and not even Dom is making me happy right now, because he's not fucking the same, and i want the old Dom back, and i want him to get the fuck away from LA. no offence to those that live there (if there are any of you), sorry.

i don't even know what the fuck i want, i just want everything to stop.

newsy news

May. 4th, 2007 11:16 pm
silentdescant: (to do list)
I haven't had a real update in a while, so: a numbered list of my life. >.<

1) I must thank the lovely and generous [livejournal.com profile] morebliss for giving me 2 months of paid LJ time. ♥ *bounces* That means I can upload a few more icons, like this one. *grin*

2) SAT2 Biology test is tomorrow at seven o'clock in the fucking morning, and I hate mornings with all kinds of fiery passion. Plus, am so not ready for it. Then a week and a half until the AP test. omg pls save me. *clings to f-list*

3) Today at co-op we skipped art class to do more biology studying. Which I needed and appreciated, no doubt, but the whole time I was just thinking "I wish I was doing art right now..." I'm in the middle of a Dom drawing! That so trumps biology.

4) Bit sick today and a little yesterday I think. Coughing and such. I felt like I had a bit of a fever earlier, but mom says not. Still felt like it, though. >.<

5) I had the loveliest dream this morning, but then I had to wake up and go to class. Not fair. cut for a little tiny bit about the dream )

6) Rewrote the script for the movie class. Now I just have to upload it. The director wants to meet with me and the DoP at Starbucks tomorrow to discuss storyboards. Somehow the rumour's been spreading that I'm a fantastic artist, which I am not. The only reason the pictures I draw come out well at all is because I copy them directly, no creativity involved. I have done a couple of storyboards before, but omg were they horrible. Anyway, now everyone's expecting me to come up with these great drawings. It's all the producer and Cute Guy's fault, I'm thinking, since only they've seen my sketchbook... >.<

7) On my little practice test I took just now, I got a 620, which isn't exact because the book had a fucking TYPO that kinda CHANGED THE ENTIRE ANSWER. omg. So. Not a horrible score, and I've certainly done worse. Not great either, but it'll pass. Hopefully I can recreate this score or better tomorrow at 7 in the morning. >.<

8) It's 11:00 and I still haven't done my psych online post that's due by midnight. fuuuuuuck. *hurries* Psych quiz Sun/Mon, hopefully I'll be able to pull through it.

9) I just wrote a little tiny bit of freakin' hardcore BDSM. Debating about whether or not to continue it. (you're all going to say YES PLS OMG, but I'm seriously not sure about this... >.<)

10) am tired. must finish psych, then go to bed and get some sleeeeeeep.
silentdescant: (rock & roll)
First of all, Cute Guy is going to be Dead Guy very soon, because he didn't do what I SPECIFICALLY told him to do, which was to give my right email address to the producer. So she's been emailing me, but to the wrong address, and I haven't gotten any of it. So I talked to her today and gave her my private email address, which I didn't want to do, and she gave me the script with her and the director's notes on it to rewrite by tomorrow or Wednesday. It's not gonna be hard, per se, but omg I'm annoyed at Cute Dead Guy.

Another email problem: I emailed my essay to my prof (who was wearing a cute corduroy jacket today I don't have a crush on him, I swear!) last week, and never got a reply, which I didn't think was too weird, but still, I kind of expected a "thanks, I got your email" kind of thing. Anyway, he was handing back everyone's essays today, and when he got to the end of the stack, mine wasn't there! He asked me if I sent him one, and I said yes, and then he gave me a different email address to send it to. So now I've resent the essay from both the school email and my personal email, to both his school email and his personal email. OMG EMAIL.

Had a big talk with my mom about my friend and why she's grounded and what kinds of problems her family's having and omg it's just so COMPLICATED. (Tiffany: you can't tell anyone ANYTHING about this, because I'm not supposed to know, and nobody's supposed to talk about anything at all, which is why everything's a problem in the first place.) Mainly the problem is with the group of friends that this girl hangs out with. I think they're all guys, and they're all older than her, and they're all like, high school drop-outs or failing out of high-school, and their idea of fun isn't what I would call fun at all. Anyway, she hangs out with them all the time, and basically they're getting her into trouble, and there's a whole peer pressure issue, and I wish she would just hang out with me, but that's inconvenient because I live 45 min away while all these guys are like, 2 min away. >.< *sigh*

And last but not least, I'm going to get rid of my Rock & Roll icon, but I dunno what to replace it with. Also, I was an idiot and only saved these as .jpeg and not .psd, so I'm going to have to try to remake it if I want to change anything. *facepalm*


So, opinions on any of these? suggestions? different pictures I should use? anything, please.

ps: I'm still workin' on fixing my index. >.< HA! Index is fixed and I am PROUD. AND, I have the raw html saved so I can just add to it there and copy/paste it in. \o/

in other news, i'm watching FotR at the moment. *spazms of love omg* srsly, LotR is mesmerizing. so pretty omg. ooh, commercial's over. ooooh, Beanie [in Rivendell]!! guh.

My mom's purse was fucking stolen out of our car, and then taken right out to the mall to buy shite, and the purse was a real Gucci purse even though we bought it at Goodwill, and it had a brand new video ipod in it, and a wallet with my mom and sister's ID, credit cards, bank account numbers (including mine) and social security numbers (including mine). There was also the extra tickets to the movie festival that I had (even though I probably wasn't going to use them anyway), the check-tags for my sister's art and the tickets to the fair the art show's at, and library cards and Safeway and CostCo cards and probably a fucking Blockbuster card and god knows what else, not to mention the contacts list in my mom's ipod. The guy (and I'm just going to call it a him even though technically it could be a woman) must've been watching the parking lot or something because my mom and sis got out of the car at 7:30 and at 8:15 there were already charges for some Verizon phone card shite. Police said there's a slim to none chance of getting stuff back, and Apple = bastards because they don't disable the ipod if it's stolen. And I'm really kinda fucking freaked out right now. Because this guy was in the fucking car. Inside. The fucking. Car. The one that I ride to school in nearly every day. He was in it and he took the fucking purse and hopefully nothing else (there was only crap in the car anyway, thank god).

Credit cards and bank accounts are cancelled and closed, so I have to go to the bank tomorrow and get a new account number and all that shite and I just had to loan my mom money to pay for gas because the van is fucking empty and tomorrow is going to be total crap. Oh, and I still have to write my resume and interview for a position in my movies class.

And now it's midnight and I've finished a first draft of my essay, gotten a semi-crap score on my psych test, and that's just about fucking it. Good night.

eta: other things stolen:
tickets and receipts for the AP test
portable DVD player
National Treasure DVD, but I'm not too sad about that because I wanted to buy a new one anyway
GPS handheld thingy
plus the previously mentioned video ipod, wallet, purse, etc.

Went to the bank today and got a new account number. Spent something like 2 hours there, plus another half an hour at the DMV to get my mom and sis' new IDs. But I was very productive during that time, just not with schoolwork LOL. I wrote something like five entire pages of my new Monaboyd fic. Totally not ready for the interview later, though. >.< And and and, I just read [livejournal.com profile] buckle_berry's billy/dom/elijah fics and if you haven't read them, go and do so.

i suck

paper for tomorrow - half written

i don't mean to procrastinate so much...

hey, school world - fuck you.

brainspouse, i miss youuuu.

why do i STILL not have an angsty icon?

i wanna upload one of these, but i dunno which one. flist, help me out?

First day of class. yay! For the one "class" I have on-campus, I have the same instructor as my last quarter's scriptwriting class, and since he was my FAVORITE EVER, this is a Very Good Thing. The class is: Media & Messages, and he's gonna talk about things like how colour schemes affect emotion and stuff like that. Today, he talked about violence and censorship, so that was interesting. An interesting note that I kinda already knew: in the US, it's pretty much okay to show violence, but NO SEX WHATSOEVER, whereas in the UK, you can show sex, only no (or less) violence. >.<

My other two classes are both online, which is both good and bad. Today, I tried to go online to check everything out and get assignments, but there was a problem. A couple of Vista's servers are down, so NOBODY has access to the online classes. >.< This is what my tech-support email said:

Instructors are getting updates every few hours via the faculty list serve we have for them. Everyone is in the same situation, and the suggestion from my office staff is to "read chapter 1 and then try again later tonight or tomorrow."

LOL, good advice, techies. *giggles* Hopefully everything will be working tomorrow. >.<

My last class starts tomorrow; the Movie Making class, where we'll be making a movie from start to finish, using a script written by a girl in my script class (who also happens to be in this Media & Messages class). Dunno how that's gonna work out. Annoying Old Guy from last quarter's classes is apparently going to take this class, so that'll be a nightmare. Oh, and Annoying Superman Guy is in Media & Messages. OH FUN. I asked him about his grades from the last class (because I didn't really rate him very high on the peer review), and he said he hasn't even checked yet! I was very "wtf!?" because when your grades come out, you go check them ASAP, right? I certainly do. >.<

Biology is still teh suckage, so nothing new to report there. Other than class has been moved from Friday to Wednesday this week, because I'm gonna be gone on Friday. And Sat and Sun. Somewhere in that time, I'm going to take some kind of tour of WSU, which means I need to do a little tiny bit of research on their media/english program before I go. >.<

And I just realized I ended every paragraph with a ">.<" LOL and now it looks like it has ears. O.o

Also, I haven't replied to comments yet. I'm sorry! I'll be dealing with some email/comments shortly...

eta: oh, Billy, PLEASE DO THIS this year. thank you. *diez* LOL
ps: nsfw, btw.

1) My monitor has been giving me trouble since forever, it feels like. The colors are wayyy off, and not even changing the brightness/contrast will fix it. I lived with it for a while, but when it comes time to make icons or what have you, I have to either work over on my sister's nicely calibrated new flatscreen, or end up making weird-looking, super-bright pictures. So, I finally switched out my monitor with my sister's old monitor.

2) This new(er) monitor has problems also:
     a) it's HUGE, and can barely fit on my desk
     b) it's just slightly fuzzy, which makes me feel like I need glasses or something
     c) it has just now come down with the SAME color problem that my old one had.

So what I'm surmising is that the color problem is with my actual computer, not my monitor. I have no idea why this one's coming up all fuzzy, though; my old one was perfectly clear, just dark. Also, it's really bugging me that my keyboard can barely fit on my desk and I feel like I have to sit wayyyy back in my chair to even see everything properly.

I've just about had it with these STUPID computer problems. What I really want is a nice, new, pretty laptop with a docking station for my desk, because I don't like using laptop keyboards. I'm nearly considering spending the money and getting a new computer NOW, because of all these annoyances. I just fucking hate it when the stupidest little things like this go wrong and bug me for months on end. I mean, I switched the monitor today because I thought I was finally FIXING all my problems. Now that I see it has the SAME problems, I'm thinking about switching back, because at least my smaller one actually fits on my damn desk.

*cries, srsly*

Also, my HTML handbook back from my Media 109 class has come in handy lately, especially when I can never remember the code for non-breaking spaces. And yeah, that was kinda random, huh?

ALSO. WTF, LJ won't let me upload my animation icon. Says it's too big or something. I don't even want to get in to troubleshooting that right now. >.<

One more thing: classes start tomorrow, and there was much rejoicing. yay. /python reference
silentdescant: (omgwtf)
bloody fucking stupid water potential. my question is, who the bleeding hell CARES? if you didn't ALREADY know this, I FUCKING HATE BIOLOGY. i don't think anything can change that now. ever. fucking hell. not to mention i forgot how to make a damn graph in excel. stupid fucking scatterplots. stupid AP is gonna drive me fucking insane if it hasn't already. it's taken away my ability to COUNT properly. fuck.

proof of my insanity )

ps: the poison was a reference to an earlier discussion on the effects of strychnine. bloody cool stuff, in a freaky, morbid type of way. kills people by making them convulse continually, then they die either from asphyxia or exhaustion from the convulsions. it's number 9 on the top ten poison list.

My second class was cancelled today, and I feel like I can actually relax for the first time since like, last Tuesday or something. So I'm going to kinda summarize some things that happened, and post some stuff that I really should've posted a long time ago. (seriously, this is an insanely long post. like, really really really long. longer than many of my fics kind of long. >.<)

The weekend Career Exploration class... )

Now, for some other class-related things... )

No real segue into this next bit. First, I'll explain what happened today, then I'll lay out my problem.

Spring Quarter registration... )

Side note: while waiting for my ride home, I had time to read a bit more of The Stand, which I'm enjoying thus far.

So, my problem. )

A couple of fic-related things:

How did I not know about this story before? So very guh. Exposure - [livejournal.com profile] kiltsandlollies

annnd, [livejournal.com profile] legomyarrow updated The Flag again! \o/ I haven't read it yet, though.

About my own fic; I can't believe how common being late on the chapters is becoming for me. I'm sorrrrry! I really am working on it, really. In between running around for classes and not getting enough sleep, I actually do write a bit!

*sigh* That's it for now. (You're all thinking "about bloody time!" right? Sorry.) When I'm not as exhausted, I'm going to post some geeky battery voltage graphs that [livejournal.com profile] bloodrayveness wanted to see.

Oh wait, one more thing. I just came across Sean Astin's short film, The Long and Short of it, on Youtube today! I was really glad, because I hadn't had the chance to see it before. *g* I think it's really well done. Especially since I now have a newfound appreciation for silent, five minute long movies. lol
