kthxrawr

Walker: And what's the problem if Ryan and Brendon were actually dating, you know? There's not really any problem with that.
Smith: Because they might be.

you boys are always my favourites.

other news, one down, three to go. I FEEL APPRECIATED!! and all that.

( we can has house? )

my god, I totally cannot wait. Chloe and Katie are going to talk more to the landlord tomorrow so. we'll see. there's a few little issues like storage space for the back room, but it can be worked around.

-

'Pretty. Odd.', huh?
Panic make me gleeful, if not bemused by their punctuation. but hey, just release the goddamn uk dates already.
I'm eyeing the window of time between the Europe mainland dates and the Honda Civic dates hopefully. June is too far away.
I might have to try and convince Katie she wants to see them, haha. but I already have a list of 3 people to go with.
but oh god. I am so looking forward to this. I've been checking the website daily, moreorless, to see the updates on the puzzle.
also, disappearing exclamation marks ftw.

-

last night was fun, if not slightly bemusingly awkward, in the best possible way.
good nights always end with wet converse and static in my ears.

-

I feel detached from situations.
this isn't my life defining moment. or does it define my life by saying that?
my logic is always circular.

-

I have my Skullcandy headphones. ♥
they're green and shiny and awesome.

...has it really been less than a week?

we've been spending a lot of time just together. it's. it's pretty damn awesome.
we're taking it slow.

-

I have the plague. this is not awesome. I'm just kind of overdosing on throat sweets.

-

it's been a odd week. I finally asked a question I was expecting to hear no to [and heard yes], I got a boyfriend, I saw three fantastic live bands [and one somewhat lame one], met people off my friendslist, handed in an assignment, made promises to talk more, and today I'm seeing a whole bunch of my friends today! despite the plague!

man, it feels good to feel this way.

-

'They wrote Nine in the Afternoon while being ... chemically imbalanced.'

okay, Panic, Pete Wentz, ilu. ♥

-

I've seen a lot of foolish behaviour in my time
but I tell you, they've got nothing on me

oh god, let me not screw this one up.
but I say this every time.

oh, man, I love my fandom.

why? we're trying to get Gerard Way to win the 'Sexiest Female' of the Year in the Kerrang readers poll. [last year, he came 4th!]

[yes, I'm secretly 5.]

so after some incredibly creepy dreams, I'm playing Animal Crossing this morning! somehow, they're connected. I woke up at about... 7.30, and I've been drifting in and out of sleep since then.

I'm not going to my supervisor meeting - for one, it's in fifteen minutes, and second, um, I'm lazy. and will do work this afternoon.

but the best thing about this morning - this video! for Cobra Starship's new song Guilty Pleasures. ♥ ♥ dorks! with twister! and dorkfaces! ...just believe me, it's incredibly cute. and happy making. come back to England! I want to see them live. I really, really regret missing them at Reading now.

[also, I called it, she totally doesn't remember, ahahaha.]

one of these days i'll stop updating so much. :B

The first five people to comment on this post get to request a ficlet from you. In return, they have to post this meme in their journal. Post all fandoms you're willing to write for.

bandom, doctor who, various anime [ccs, fruits basket, digimon, one piece at a stretch]. um, suggest it, and I'll shoot you down.

I'm also just in general uninspired. I have my nightmare_xmas assignment, I have an idea, I have how it should start- but I get stuck there.

-

I keep wanting to have my mood as accomplished. I love those dork faces. however, lazy will do too.

I'm trying to plan out my trip to Sheffield - it all hinges on me getting the last tram to the station - which leaves at 11.15pm. however, there's still a two hour wait in the station, unless by some freak chance I can get there by 10.30. that ain't gonna happen. it's the waiting in the station that I'm scared about. however, I will get to see My Chemical Romance and Mindless Self Indulgence. oh man, you wish you were me. or not.
it's the morning after that's gonna kill me. two concerts in a row, and I won't be getting in until 3am - and a 9am start. I just thank god I live so close to the station. [why couldn't you have just come to Manchester? then I'd have had people to go with D¦ I don't mind the going alone so much, but there's a big difference between the Academy and Sheffield. *takes a kitten* *shotget*]

-

in other fannish news, Brand New's Untitled 7 is released on iTunes tomorrow! however, I dislike iTunes, so anyone know how to unlock the coding? aha. I'm going to buy it, I still have that free code I got for drinking too much coke.

-

something hilariously awful happened today. I have this thing with my jeans - the hem at the bottom tends to wear away and go all ratty. and on one leg, there's a fairly long strip of material that's still attatched, but just gets in the way. I was crossing the road after I'd been shopping, and being partially distracted by my phone, stepped on the end of my jeans, tripped myself up, and completely wiped out. thank god I was not actually in the road at this point, but on the little bit of pavement in between the lanes. the guy crossing the road from the other side was all 'D: sorry!' although, I had no idea what he thought he'd done.
poor lettuce and pizza box, you broke my fall. for great justice.

I seriously need to go along to the doctors. [and register for one that I'm actually in the right area for!] someone remind me or something.

-

I keep saying about how the world is too small. one of my flatmates [and his friend, but that's a whole different story, aha] is on the same course as dogmop. which is kind of coincidental. turns out, Alan also was actually in a group last year with madmailbu, who I have known on and off, since reception. seriously, it's the freakiest thing, especially considering how much of a random coincidence we got in touch again in the first place.

internets! sweet sweet internets.
in other news of how sarri fails at life, part 1345 - the reason why the internet wasn't working yesterday [and why i was flailing at Loki going 'WHY DON'T I HAVE A DEFAULT GATEWAY'] was because I put the wrong mac address in. 8B will never be B8, people.
also, Pico is getting a power supply. so soon, I'll have internet and a fast computer.
also also, I went and spent £42 on gig tickets. Athlete, Biffy Clyro and Hellogoodbye. so all in all, I'm a little spazzy right now. I also may have a spending addiction. although what the fuck, Straylight Run are touring. gah. someone please, tell me I don't want to go and buy tickets. I swear, I'm going to spend my entire student loan on gigs at this rate. I just find it really easy to spend my money.

mm, I'll get back to normal soon, I promise.

I've been spending a bit of time helping Sophie and Alan out at the freshers stall. it's kind of good, since we can go look around [and get free stuff] without queueing up to get in. the queue is always so long. and the society has been doing pretty well - we've had around 200 sign ups? which is a little scary.

lectures start on monday, fencing starts the week after. maybe I'll leave riding for a bit?

-

What's the most ridicolous thing you've ever brought?
Pete: Ryan Ross.

did I mention I love my fandom?

have I mentioned I'm hideously materialistic at times? like, I'll go out to see people, and I'll always come back with something. when I met up with Tegan and Nik last week, it was NME and two cds. today, when I went to swap ds games with Nik, it was some skin toner, two sparkly lip glosses and some hair products. sparkly hairgel, people. SPARKLES. plus, I kind of love the smell of Shockwaves hair products. I have this wax mousse that I swear smells like apples.
how can I resist?

[things I buy too many of: notepads, pens, lip glosses, cds, pants.]

I had a really randomly nostalgic moment this afternoon. I had my window wide open, and was just looking at the pink clouds, even though the streetlight was already on, and couldn't actually see the sunset. I love being in a city, but at times, I like being around here. like, we're just on the edge of the suburbs really - you don't have to go very far to find fields. and a quarry. ...I never figured that one out either.

I'm going to miss the puppies like whoa - when it comes down to it, I've been walking them every day, and feeding them most days at least once. I won't miss the crying whenever we leave them alone, like when we eat. [they're kept in their bed then, to stop them begging at the table/sofa.] I'm gonna miss my parents a bit too. [I miss my brother like a hole in the head. he's not the worst, but he's not the best.]

but... yeah. I can't wait to get back. I think. although, it'll will be better once everyone is back.

tomorrow will be all go. I have most of my washing to do, and all of my packing. and figuring out how to compress my notes. or something. because for some reason, my mother wants me to take them all back. guh.

and lj is no longer going 'no u' at my layout. thank god.

[I'm not sure if my fandom amuses me or makes me feel sad or makes me feel happy. all that's to be said really - the bassist from MSI is hot.]

...maybe I'll, like, go play maple.

I really don't understand this, lately I just feel really happy. although this is the day after I realised I have an honest-to-god emo fringe when I straighten my hair.
[it might have something to do with Ryan Ross. his happy face makes me happy.]

but oh god, at least two people last weekend thought I was 17. bwaha. [and a 17 year old looked 19, and a 13 year old looked 21.]

I'm also loving brand new far, far too much.

and the puppies [are almost no longer puppies] ate my parents' wedding photos.

I still feel kind of gleeful. I'm also making lists, and this is never a good thing.
- another pair of jeans. ugh, I adore these jeans. they're just the right amount of baggy and wahed out and pink and green.
- band t-shirts. I've been eyeing up some Brand New ones.
- a new wallet. preferably a smaller one.
- more MAC makeup. I'm turning into one of those girls who buys expensive makeup.
- a sports bra. for me and Dory plan to go fencing. I mean, man, you totally needed to know that.
the only problem is, I have no idea when my loan is coming in. hay government, I want my free moneh.

I have a feeling there's some dinner I'm meant to be cooking.

AHAHHAA WHAT. I hate my stupid face and it's inability to look, well, unretarded.
( cut for photo )

see there. that's me. looking really, um, I don't know. please note at this point I was kind of 'o____o what what *shock*'

[yes this is another gratitous I MET PANIC post. I'LL GET OVER IT SOON, PROMISE.]

oh god, showers.

this weekend, i have:
- experienced karma, coincidence, happenstance, fate or just simple luck.
- seen a whole load of my favourite bands.
- heard a few more.
- listened to bands i was never really that into before!
- had awesome weather!
- fucked off a whole lot. ['becky, where's your mate?' '...she'll be back.']
- managed to get my lanyard signed by brand new. [only for it to rub off later. D:]
- ended up being two people away from the barrier for fall out boy.
- to achieve this, i ended up standing for around nine hours without sitting, eating or going to the toilet.
- found out the hard way how much crowdsurfers hurt when they end up putting a foot in your face.
- spoken to some pretty awesome people while in signing queues/the barrier crowd. people are so much nicer when they're not trying to put a elbow in your face. :]
- avoided circle pits like the plague. despite every band being all 'we want to see the biggest circle pit ever!'
- slept far too easily. and at weird times. 12am - 6am is not good sleeping for festival.
- ...and met panic! at the disco.

...yes, i'm still pretty hyper over that.

at some point, i'll do a more comprehensive review of the bands i saw, at least.

so, um, how are you all? :D *goes to read friends page*

things that make me happy.
- my friends. yes, we all know I can be a disgusting sap at times, but hey. ♥♥ there are some of my friends who put up with a ridiculous amount of shit and clinginess off me. there are also some people who are just fantastically funny.
and the best part? I get to see a fair few of them next weekend. ♥
even if I only see you once or twice a year, even if I don't speak to you much, even if we're just lj friends, all of you have made my life so much better.

- ( cut for photo )
scenester cowboys. because, um, what? this is awesome, yet utterly bizarre.
also, new panic song that doesn't sound, well, odd.

- music! I mean, I went to an anime con, and came back with four cds! [we went on a tesco run and were gone for almost three hours! it was awesome.] and one of those is screamo! also, I have discovered the Hush Sound. ♥

- I have a burning desire to make Iso into the prettiest princess at amecon.

- mint and tea tree shampoo is not edible. tastes soapy. also made Steve's hair smell delicious, or so he claimed.

- House Emo won. incidentally, it seems Junpei was not pulling my leg.

- Seaking?

- Reading! Becky~ coaches? tents? I is mildly unprepared.

oh god Iso, you're unintentionally fantastic.

I'm considering creating a tag called 'emoting over return of the king' because that film always get me depressed. oh, Frodo, you're so creepy and sad. and Legolas, you're just pretty. and state the obvious. and the 'how do you pick up the threads of an old life?' monologue never fails to make me feel sad. But at least I got to watch all of the extended editions and all the extra scenes. Like the Houses of Healing! little things make me happy, I'm kind of a geek like that.
Also watched 'Life On The Murder Scene' [the mychem dvd] and it's kind of awesome. I also listened to the entire of The Black Parade in order. I'm kind of a fangirl.

Max is feeling better now, but the remote isn't. so puppy kisses and lots of dvds for me.

I should be getting HP whenever the post comes tomorrow. I'd go to the midnight release and all that, but who with? nobody's around here that much, but that's okay. Planning on going riding pretty early tomorrow anyway, and I'm on puppy sitting duties while my dad goes to a party his minions are hosting. [how cool is that? my dad has minions. okay, employees, but they call him things like crabbit. bwaha.] My brother is home tomorrow as well [which happens once in a blue moon, I kid you not] so I guess I'll have to pester him into getting my birthday present.
I'm really not sure what I'm expecting from the book. As long as I like it more than OotP. I hated that book. Caps locks does not make people emphasise with you. I've pretty much avoided spoilers and/or downloads, so who knows what's going to happen. Maybe I'll read the last chapter first anyway.

I think I'd just like to sleep. But I'll just sit around and play with my hair. I actually really like my hair right now. sure, it's more or less just plain brown [and I don't even know if it's natural or not anymore, that's how much i dye my hair] but it's quite short - long enough that it will just go into two bunches - but that's the way I like it. I could just take photos, that would be far easier.
I also really want to buy coloured hair extensions. I need to head over to Walsall area anyway to get my contacts.

I don't have much to do, it's just getting around to doing it. my life would be at least a bit easier if I actually did all these things I keep thinking of.
But in a few weeks, everything will be go-go-go, and then it's September. which, ugh, I'm looking forward to like whoa.

I kind of love coke zero at the moment, because there's nothing in it.

I am swimming in hoodie.

Turns out that girls large- was a large. I misread the page XD
It's a little long and a little too long in the arms. But oh well. But literally, swimming in it.
It will be fantastic in winter.

...Plus, it's a Panic hoodie. :D

Is there any song on I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love that isn't about vampires? srsly.

...Oh my god. Hemingway is the coolest dog ever.
[new fob video with catgirls, breakdancing post men, and talking dogs. i am happy.]

I am awesome again! Because dancing makes me feel awesome. My feet hurt and I can't hear properly and my throat hurts and my ear is itchy and maybe I'm crushing and my hair feels ratty and soggy and my shoes are soaked through--
But that's part of what makes it awesome.

Caffeine is my anti-drug, but it's still a drug, I guess.

However, emos doing the conga. What. But so many songs, so much dancing and headbanging and being silly. Screaming 'die young and save yourself' also works! Dancing from 12 to 3 seems a lot longer, but the rain feels so good when you're finished.
miss_ren, black_sonnet, srsly at some point - come here with me! acestar too! Or anyone!

Also, why is the indie society following me? ahaha.

-

In random fandom related news that nobody really cares about, wtf tattoos.

-

Region unlocked? Yes plz. We'll be checking that one out soon.

Meme gankage from shuraiya, wherein you leave a comment with the person who is posting the meme and they go into your interests - they pick three of your interests and have you explain them in an entry! And then other people ask you to pick their interests! :D

Kicking the Iso
- Okay, you may or may not know I used to date isonekobaka. There was great angst and emo revolving around it, whatever. And some point after the breakup and getting to be friends again, there was kicking. Because I'm a little bit violent. And kick him. A lot. And in our 'oh my god we are so totally cool' way, me and a friend added it to our interests. And then other people added it. So it kind of spiralled. Jesus condones kicking the Iso! [Someone added the interest on a spoof lj.] We love our drama! ...No, really, we don't but it's all good now.

Pocketsized pop-punk boys
- Because Panic! At The Disco are tiny. They're probably not that tiny, but it is just how the fandom sees them. They're so tiny and cute. It's really a case of stealing interests from comms I'm in. [and plus, I'm kind of really into them at the moment.]

Cheap plastic toys
It's a throwback to when I still liked Gundam Seed. They had it in their interests, and I thought 'hey, that's kind of funny.' And plus, I love cheap plastic toys. I have two tins full of random junk on my desk, current contents including a Hello Kitty pencil topper, some Naruto phone charms, hairclips, my keyring chewtoy [it's bendy and comes to pieces, fun to gnaw on], paper clips and some badges.
In fact, I have a whole drawer dedicated to my random cheap toys and shiny things. I'm like a magpie.

-

Today was kinda fun. Bar the falling asleep every five minutes because people decided to drag me into multiconvos at midnight!
I'm not complaining, mind you.

At lunch, ended up playing frisbee with Keith, Rob and Rob's friend [k I suck at knowing people's names] and later joined by more people in our year. And yeah, I suck at frisbee. But it was fun.
After that [including demonstration of our project, but that's boring] met up with Pin, Ani and random quiet person. And it was fun. Stealing cherries! Innuendo that wasn't. ['Swallow!' *chokechoke* 'D: Stop being twisted!']

And there was also shopping, because when isn't there shopping. I said 'keep me away from the make up because I always have to buy some!' and Pin says 'I need to go look at the make up!' So I brought some. And then Anisha goes 'I want to go to TK Max!' And I always buy t-shirts there. However - lilac t-shirt with a dragon fly and the text 'I'm a great catch' is win.

-

This song is one that always makes the hairs on my arm stand up and makes me shiver.

Loads of songs do that. Kind of crazy.

READING, BITCHES.

FUCKING READING.

...I love Bex so much. ♥

[it means I'm going to be £200 down already so close to the start of term but but who cares. I am going to see Fall Out Boy! And Panic! And loads of others! WHATWHATWHAT]

[so much for the Summer of Like, this is the Summer of Win and Not Much Money]

Monday was a fantastic day. Ellie came over, and then we went to the park to play. Because it's not like we're 19 or anything, right? Right. So, swinging and shopping and giggling and talking and pick and mix were had, and I really do love this girl. ♥ She is far cuter than I will ever be, alas. I was being a spaz and showing her pictures, and she looked at a few and said 'Is that a girl or a boy?' And ahh, this is true love. ♥ ♥ Because Ryan Ross is a girl.
The Atlanta show is ♥ 'The poor groom's bride is a... slut.' And Brendon looks like Brandon Flowers from the Killers all of a sudden. I... approve.
I also really love the new Killers video. The dinosaur! Playing beatmania games! Teaching Japanese school children how to dance!

Most of my days are spent revising, trying to revise and picking ambiguous msn names. Plus playing Maple, because I have a new guild! With people I know! If only Alex hadn't abandoned us, sob sob, emo, etc. And also kicking fics. Because they are mutating.

[hooker demons. demons... that are hookers. oh god, i love my fandom so much.]

Exchanges like 'Tomorrow is SPPPAAAAAARRTTTTAAAAAAA.' '...No, tomorrow is Friday.' make my life better. ♥

eleclya_m, next year, do you fancy going to the horse riding club with me? I'll try and stick with it this year, but I'm really not sure which class I'll be in.
But I'm riding Banner again, and I love him so much.

What? My house is like a black hole for my jacket. There's this one jacket I brought like... Well, it was America, and I haven't been to America since 03. And I wore it a lot in lower sixth. So yeah, almost four years ago.
For some reason, it was on the banisters the other day. But hey. I wanted a new hoodie. I'm still eyeing that Panic hoodie for my birthday. [if anyone loves me, I'm twenty in June. ahaha.] I'm also thinking of being really mean and sending my mother to go to Hot Topic for arm warmers for me when they go to America - if they go. But seriously, they'd be staying in one of the Disney hotels. And I can't go. [Plus, it'd be including the day of my dad's 50th birthday. Talk about random.]

I should be seeing Neko on Wednesday. At last! I mean, I last saw her at Auchi, which was too long ago.

I love being at home. The internet is so fast.

So all it takes is addictedkitten's primer and some pictures, and I have successfully corrupted Ellie' mind.

...It really wasn't that that hard.

My parents call one of our puppies, Indy, a special needs dog. It's kind of mean, but he is a little weird. He'll stare at you, then start barking randomly, and if you move towards him when he's like this, he'll flinch. I could maybe understand this... if we hadn't been his only owners. He's about 6 months old now. But yeah, he is the crazy puppy. Him and his brother fight a lot. And today, my mother was 'Well, you and Joseph [my brother] are quite like them...' My response was 'Wait, does that mean I'm the crazy one? D:'

...She also said if I ever brought a boy home who wore eyeliner, my dad and my brother would beat them up. Um, haha, that bodes well.

-

The new Fall Out Boy video amuses me so much. Because suits. And Panic references. And monkeys. Monkeys that insult Pete Wentz. What more could you ask for?
Also, I'm picking up more and more on the background vocals. I still have no idea what a bass sounds like, because I'm a dork. Plus, Saturday's screamo kills me dead. It makes me giggle every time. ...Lots of things makes me giggle though.

-

-

So, I'm back in Birmingham for a few weeks. S'all good. So if for some reason, you want to see me, drop me a line in advance, because I do need to revise some.

Tomorrow. Me, Ellie, a car in a park. Sounds like a plan. It makes me want to quote Lying because really, exchanging body heat in the passenger heat, right?
We're actually going to swing and be dorks, and hopefully make a adiml post about it. Because I'm really awful at actually posting them.

I really want some new clothes. Also, getting ym hair cut and dyed on Friday, hopefully like this~

-

Boys snuggling, y/n? Snuggling curing insomnia, y/n?

'Ryan has a dog and I have Ryan.' ...What? xD

-

I am officially a clone.
