2:07am

It's very late and I really don't need to be blogging, but I can't go complain to my tumblr at the moment so I'm here instead.
Usually my tumblr is filled with any/all of my thoughts even if they're personal, but it's not exactly like these are my thoughts. I'm upset because I think I'm failing nutrition, I never get enough sleep, I'm constantly annoyed by dad and louise, and my job is pretty boring. But all of these things are almost nothing compared to the shit other people have to go through constantly.
Today I had a nice dinner with most of my family, and I played video games and watched Doctor Who and just felt content.
But then I read my best friend's post on tumblr, and I feel like I should say something, but I don't know what. And I want to help, and I look at everyone I know on facebook happily caring about stupid things, and I think they're so ignorant because they don't understand what life is like when it is actually hard. They think the worst thing that can ever happen is that they got their phone taken away for a week when they were 12 or something. And this all sounds hypocritical because my life is rarely too difficult; I'm generally a very happy person. But the fact that my best friend is having such a difficult time and I didn't even notice or ask kills me. There's so much going on that I'm not even aware of and I don't know what to do.
I guess for now I'll settle with going to sleep.

My LIIIIIIIIIIFE

(because i'm logged in)
WASSUP?

No really I can't be doing this I have to get up for work in 8 hours.

I only have a few things to say though.
1. I suck. I fail. I am the worst. I am only at 3600 words in my NaNoWriMo. UGH. FAIL. It's truly terrible, but I'm hoping I'll get back into it. I at least know who my main characters are; I'm just having trouble showing who they are to the reader. It's a lot more difficult than I thought it would be.

2. I finished series 2 of Doctor Who last week. Even though I knew what happened to Rose due to spoilers on Tumblr, I cried like a baby. Just, that show, ugh, it makes me so sad all the time!

3. I bought the final Harry Potter on dvd and wanted to cry due to leftover emotions from the previous night (see above: Rose Tyler). I also bought series 6 p2 of Doctor Who and a Doctor Who shirt! I'm pretty excited about it.

4. Today Susie and I bought tickets to see Breaking Dawn at midnight. But like, I hate Twilight. Yet the 14 year old in me still loves it so I go see them and buy the dvds every year. ~Laaaame~
But whatever, no classes tomorrow night, just me, susie, and obscure Twilight quotes until we go see the new one. Today I sent her "Charlie: famous ladies man", "You're like a drug to me", and "I'd rather die than stay away from you". Oh my god, it is truly awful.

Tomorrow I plan on texting her  an obscure Breaking Dawn quote, in which Edward says "fetus" all like eeewww.

Yep I am hilarious.
I can't remember why I'm posting this. I had SOMETHING to say besides all that nonsense.
Oh well.
BYEEE

Quick Update!

WOO I turned 18! Then we lost power and I didn't have work all day until today. And school's been canceled and it's canceled tomorrow too. Hopefully Friday also xD

Anyway I don't have much else to talk about.
Well, I do, but I don't exactly have time. I'm doing NaNoWriMo this month. I'm already at 962 words.

A few random things:
1. The novel I'm working on is a mix of all the ideas I've been having for like 2 years and I'm amazed that I didn't try combining them before.
2. I had a wonderful birthday
3. I got a 92 on my sociology exam woooo!
4. I just made an on-the-go with christmas music on it and i'm listening to polar express and LOVING IT
5. i saw hpdhp2 deleted scenes today and loved them and i hope more get released whenever the extreme ultimate awesome possum edition gets released (dvd out in 9 days though!)
okay i need to stop procrastinating and just write a novel!

no booklist today cuz i'm too lazy to copy and paste plus i still haven't read anything new :(

Climb to the Top

Currently listening to To Build a Home by The Cinematic Orchestra and feeling poetic, so here, have a blog post! 


Lately I've been super busy with work and school, and whatever down time I have is spent either sleeping, eating, hanging out with my friends, or watching TV shows on Netflix. I lead a pretty simple life.


Recently I've decided that I need to go on more adventures. I want to go hiking, and there's a really cool corn maze near my mom's house that I want to see. I realized I'm sick of sitting around all day waiting for something to happen; I'm going to just do something fun.


I've started walking every day for about an hour after I get home. My mom calls me on her lunch break and we walk around and talk from 1 until 2. It's been nice; my legs are kind of sore but I feel better knowing that I'm doing something that's good for me.


I also got back into drawing recently. I took out all of my art supplies and brought them to Susie's house. She mostly read magazines while I drew pictures of her, my cat, a unicorn, and various Doctor Who characters in crayon. It kind of makes me want to go to school for art, but I really don't know what I'm doing in school right now. I just show up and do my work without expecting much from it.


After looking at my book list I got sad. I'm only halfway to the 40 books goal I set for myself. And I'm not helping by rereading Perks and This Lullaby. I stopped reading Percy again; I really have to be in the mood for that one. But ooh I hope Percy and Annabeth officially become a couple. ^-^


Alright, I guess I'd better go soon. I'm supposed to hang out with the sibs tonight and catch up with Veronica Mars and Doctor Who. I watch too much tv. Also I want to have a band like Karen and the Babes, because they are perfection.


OH! Also I'm turning 18 in a week, so yay! Maybe I'll do a birthday post. I'm planning on doing all those cliche things you do once you turn 18, so we'll see how that goes. I might make a video & post on the hiiiistacie youtube. :))


Okay, bye bye byeee (bye bye byee)

Fall, TV, the usual...

When Fall gets here it is pretty much my favorite thing in the world. We get a ton of rainy days, colorful leaves, and of course all of my tv shows come back on. I can't wait to go apple picking or for Halloween. Susie and I went to the Halloween store and saw a Regan(sp?) from The Exorcist thing whose head spins around! Talk about terrifying... I still don't know what I'm being for Halloween since I sort of have class that night. I might skip if I actually make some plans! I'm thinking about being a Doctor Who companion.
I've been so into Doctor Who since the beginning of summer. I'm watching series 2 now, and I'm watching series 6 as it airs each week. I'm very excited for The Wedding of River Song. It's going to be crazy.
I'm supposed to be doing my nutrition homework. Crap. I have my first test tomorrow in that class and I'm actually really nervous about it. I've been doing well in my other classes though, so hopefully I can keep that pattern going in this class as well.
Tomorrow night I'm going to a high school football game and seeing my friends that I haven't seen since graduation night in June. I'm so excited to see all my lovely band friends!
Also, since getting a job I've been spending too much money. I keep buying coats and copies of Marie Claire. I must stop myself! I have a magazine addiction, especially when they have cool people on the covers. I've watched a lot of good movies recently also. I watched Love and Other Drugs, Fried Green Tomatoes, and Never Let Me Go in the past month, and I loved them all! I gave The Kids Are All Right a chance but I didn't love it like I thought I would. The sibs and I have also gotten back into watching Tim and Eric Awesome Show. We can't stop quoting Mr. Henderson. "You piece of trash!"
Gah, there are too many shows for me to watch. Along with Doctor Who, I'm starting to watch Mad Men. Plus my DVR is slowly filling up with a ton of shows. Mostly Doctor Who. And Parks. GAH!
I had a lot to say but I think that's just because I don't want to do my homework.
It's been a busy month since I last posted. The house flooded, the other house flooded, my dad got married and I stayed with the sibs while he was in Florida for the honeymoon, my cat moved back in, I've been working, going to school, etc. It's been really crazy.
Maybe I can do an actual blog post soon. I've been way to busy! Weekends are amazing now since I don't have work ever or school. CRAP I just remembered that I forgot to check my schedule again. -_- I'll call and ask tomorrow...Bleh.

Okay I really have to do my homework and possibly shower and definitely sleep at some point. Goodnight.

Percy Jackson Book 5 (I actually got maybe 1/3 of the way into it. Oh, Beckendorf, why did you have to leave?)
I'm searching tumblr for some more book recs since I haven't been reading as much as I should.


*Ooh we got our first Perks set video today and I cannot waaaaaaaaaaait!!

Unicorns & the Diamonds

Not much has actually happened since I last posted since it was only slightly over a week ago. There are a few things, but they mostly occurred in my brain.

Firstly, I went to register for classes only to find I could not afford it. At all. I thought I would have to take the semester off. Then yesterday I checked my email to find my FAFSA had gone through and, basically, I'm going to school for free this year. This huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders; I honestly feel like I could do anything.
Next on my list of things to do is get a job, followed by getting my license, and eventually a car. I'm currently working on getting a new laptop (which is sort of my graduation present), and I'm going to start looking into cameras to buy. I miss the days where I was filming 24/7. I want a good camera for filming and a Polaroid camera because, let's face it, they're totally awesome!
Lately, aka the past few hours, I've been obsessed with Marina and the Diamonds. She is amazing and I cannot wait to buy her CD. Also unicorns. I'm considering getting a small, small, small unicorn tattoo on my foot or something. One that I draw myself. We'll see.

I've just been feeling so happy and I wanted to update. I'm going to try to get something done this week. I want to stuff as much fun as I can into my last week of summer! Until next time,
BUH BYE.

Does fanfiction count? :(

It's been a while

I always manage to skip a month or so between posts.
Lots has happened since June.

Let me start with the end of my childhood: July 15th, when the last Harry Potter film was released.
An "in-depth"-ish review of the movie can be found here. I saw it in 3D about a week later. It really felt like my childhood was over, and it still does.
The actual day of July 15th, I was an emotional wreck. Every little thing made me cry. My dad called saying he got a new bed frame and that I wasn't keeping my old bed; I wept for 10 minutes.
I moved out of my house which I'd lived in since I was born.

I applied/got in to college and am registering for classes next week. I'm trying my best to find a job. It's been difficult but I'm pulling through.

Susie and I have been watching Skins all summer. We've watched 3 episodes of series 4 and at the moment I'm having trouble remembering what made me hate it so much. It is so beautiful. Also, Susie mentioned how Effy is kind of crazy, and it took all I had not to laugh because she's not wrong. Effy is craycray. hehe.

Sherri and I have been watching Veronica Mars and Doctor Who. It's been fun. I love both.
Also I watched Winter's Bone and loved it. Also Parks and Rec. I guess this past month has been tv/movie themed.

In other news, my mom, Sherri, Sarah, and I went to a state park and hiked to a waterfall which we sort of swam in. I just kind of stood in it. The next day a bird fell in through the car window and died under Sarah's butt. I was sobbing because laughing wasn't even a good enough reaction to how hilarious it was. We also saw 2 creepy clowns. Is it the apocalypse?
Soon after, my mom, Sherri, and I tried to go tubing in a river nearby. I took a raft and followed Sherri down some rapids. While she wooshed right over them, I went backwards and hit my left side on a big rock and almost drowned. That was fun. My leg is still sore.
After that I saw Bon Iver in concert with Sherri. It rained like crazy but it was still awesome. Their music is really beautiful.

It was an eventful week. This week I've just been on the computer or begging for a job or watching tv. I feel pretty useless. I've been trying to write more. I like to write especially on rainy days, which I heard are coming on Sunday and Monday.

Okay, it's almost 1am and I'm supposed to be up early tomorrow to finish getting my stuff from the old house. Then I'm going to drop off Sarah at my mom's. Maybe I'll get something done for once.

I've been putting off finishing Percy Jackson. I started rereading The Hunger Games. I also still need to get my hands on a copy of Beauty Queens! 

I'm such a slacker.

Good day. Or I guess Good night.
