Mom: It's New Years! Wear something festive!
Me: It's New Years EVE, my entire closet is black, and we're not doing anything.
Mom: We're gonna PARTY!
Dad: *Coming in the room* We're gonna celebrate New Years on New York time! 10:00, watch the ball drop!
Dad: So we can get to bed on time.
Me: Yeah, that's a party. BI
Dad: Whooo hoooo! 8D

You know when you have something planned out and you think you know how you’re going to write it and how it’s all going to go down, and then you actually get to it and something minute changes the path of events and that causes your characters to act completely differently than you expected and they hurt themselves and now you have to deal with the consequences? Yeah, that’s...

Apparently there’s a Gallifreyan font.  I just installed it.  No idea what I’m going to use it for, and I know it’s in no way accurate, but I HAVE ITTTTTTTTTTTT. 8D  SO PRETTY.

Screw me, it’s my fault, I need to read better. Or they need to move the “this can only be applied to your account” thing away from the bottom of the page.  To the top, perhaps. Here goes a second try. BI

Today at the bowling alley
Guy in the next lane: *slips in the middle of his bowl and ker-splats to the floor, resulting in a gutterball.*
Mom: Lauren, you can't marry that guy. Your kids would never have a chance. They couldn't even walk and chew gum at the same time.

Sometimes I do things that I know most of the people in my life wouldn’t approve of. And I think about how my ex would’ve whacked me if he knew. And I giggle rebelliously. Silently. To myself.

I have literally been following The Hobbit movie rumors since I was in junior high, never really expecting anything to come of them but always hoping. And then, last year, when it was released that Peter Jackson was actually truly really going to make it, and the internet exploded, I almost died.  I’ve been geeking out about this since the moment it was announced, and even more so when they...

   Lukas woke up angry. She didn’t open her eyes; she didn’t want to. Her mind raged, screamed, blindly lashing out and spewing silent profanities at the world. Her stomach clenched into a knot—throw up or sob or kill herself or kill all of them; in her helpless fury she couldn’t decide. She hardly noticed the hot tears wetting her cheeks as she curled into a ball and pulled the covers over...

I begged Dad to let me keep The Silver Bull, and he agreed.  I named him Exalted, and I’m gonna make him my tumblr mascot.

Yeah, so, it took me a grand total of three days...
My plans for the day =/= my parents’ plans for the day.

So I went to the kitchen to get food, but I forgot that my sister has a friend staying over and they’re sleeping on the couches.  I stomped in there and turned the light on and BAM!  SLEEPING PEOPLE!  So I turned it off really quickly.  And loaded up on things that I don’t need to prepare like granola bars and applesauce and a whole bag of those rice cake things.  And a cheesestick. ...

School is over for awhile, finals are finished and...
And of course, what do I spend it doing?  Staying up late, working harder than I did on my finals, of course!  Sketching almost 30 creature designs, lugging out a pad of paper and doing some bubble brainstorming, typing up more words than I did on most of my essays.  This plot’s not gonna write itself, yaknow.  I think I may just be crazy, but EGGTech is so much my liiiiife.
