When it comes to TV shows, I really don't think anyone is as fast as my sister at watching them. She watched the entire 7th season of Buffy in a single day, she watched several seasons of Lost in only a couple weeks, and she does it all while watching multiple different shows at the same time.
A few days ago, I finally got my sister to watch Avatar: The Last Airbender. I've been bugging her about this ever since my friends managed to get me to watch it. She came into my room late at night after only two episodes and asked me to let her borrow my DVDs of the first season after deciding that she really liked it. The next day, when I came home from work at around 4, the box was back in my room. As of right now, she is six episodes into the third and final season. The only reason she hasn't completely finished the show now is because she works full time on weekdays. I kinda wish she was pacing herself a bit more though, because I love meeting with her in the hallway and discussing the show with her and asking what she thinks. "Did you get to episode number X yet? What do you think of Toph? Isn't she amazing!?" "How hard did you laugh at Sokka and Momo and the cactus juice incident?" It's so much fun! It's also hard not to spoil stuff though, like when my sister said (after watching the first season) "I hope they make Zuko's character even more dimensional in the second and third season." There are so many times she says "I hope this happens" or "I wonder when they'll explain this" where I'm thinking "Wow, you have NO IDEA!" I'm really glad she's so in love with the show and its characters. Now we can talk about how amazing Katara and Toph are, among other things.

I'm sorry to say that she's really not feeling the Katara/Aang though. She says that since Katara is 16 and Aang is only 11, it's kind of gross right now. I can understand where she's coming from, but in a few years I don't think it would matter so much. Aang might be a little young at this point, but it's not like she's 20 and he's 10 or something. And besides, for most of the show, up until the end, their relationship is just portrayed as a mutual crush. My sister is picky about this stuff though.

And on another note, I've started reading A Game of Thrones! Yay!

Time for Doctor Who/Neil Gaiman Fangirling!

Okay, so Saturday's episode of Doctor Who? OHMYFUCKINGGOD THAT WAS AMAZING!

It's really no secret that I think this show was greatly improved after Steven Moffat took over. Towards the end of Russel T Davis's run, the show was almost unbearable to watch anymore because I had become so frustrated with it. Season five on the other hand, captained by Steven Moffat, far surpassed my expectations and soared way past the potential I saw for the show when I started watching. Now, I know plenty of people disagree, but that's just my opinion.
Then, in season six episode four, Neil Gaiman came along and WROTE THE BEST EPISODE OF DOCTOR WHO EVER. Not just the best episode of New!Who, but the best ever. Never on the history of this show have we gotten to see the soul of the Tardis inhabit a human body and speak directly to the Doctor (Bad Wolf!Rose doesn't count, since that was a mix of both Rose and the Tardis in a completely new entity). It was amazing and beautiful. All throughout this show the Doctor's relationship with his space-time-machine has seemed almost romantic, especially with the knowledge that it's actually alive and has a soul. "The Doctor's Wife" was the PERFECT title for this episode, because that's who the Tardis is for the Doctor, in a way. Sure, he has romantic adventures with characters like Rose and River Song, but they're not the Tardis. And all the references to classic!Who were great, like when she called the Doctor "Thief", in reference to the fact that he originally stole her. I loved how excited the Doctor was too that he finally got to speak with, touch, kiss (and get bitten by) the Tardis for this one episode:
The Doctor: Uh, Amy, this is... well... she's my TARDIS. *becomes absolutely giddy*Except she's a woman. She's a woman and she's my TARDIS!
Amy: She's the TARDIS?
The Doctor: And she's a woman. She's a woman and she's the TARDIS!
Amy: Did you wish really hard?
Of course then her human body dies and she goes back to being the non-speaking machine and it's sad, and I got teary eyed, and Neil Gaiman you are a GENIUS. And thanks to this episode, Doctor/Tardis is going to become a much more popular ship (and hopefully spawn lots of fanfic).
Also, not related to the OTP in this episode, but I thought it was really funny:
The Doctor: (to Amy and Rory) Uh, the House deleted all the bedrooms. I should probably put you into a new bedroom. You'd like that, wouldn't you?
Amy: Okay, um... Doctor, this time could we lose the bunk beds?
The Doctor: (with a "you've got to be kidding" face) No, bunk beds are cool! A bed! With a ladder! You can't beat that!

Doctor, why would you give a married couple bunk beds? That's just mean!

Now, something quick related Avatar the Last Airbender
Also, in other fandom related news, Mark from "Mark reads Harry Potter" just finished watching and reviewing the first season of Avatar the Last Airbender, and you really should check out his blogs. The man is adorable, and I LOVE his commentaries on Harry Potter, Doctor Who, and Avatar: TLA. Here's some links:

Why does it seem all the internet providers are turning into dicks? Look what AT&T has decided to do:
www.engadget.com/2011/03/13/atandt-will-cap-dsl-u-verse-internet-and-impose-overage-fees/
And for those too lazy to read the artice:
"AT&T says it will implement a 150GB monthly cap on landline DSL customers and a 250GB cap on subscribers to U-Verse high speed internet starting on May 2nd. AT&T will also charge overage fees of $10 for every additional 50GB of data, with two grace periods to start out -- in other words, the third month you go over the cap is when you'll get charged. DSLReports says it has confirmation from AT&T that these rates are legitimate, and that letters will go out to customers starting March 18th. "

FUCK YOU!
And it's not like we can just switch services either. When we had comcast the signal was so weak we would go for long periods of time (like, a week or more) without any internet at all on a regular basis. And Verizon doesn't offer service out here, and neither do the other internet services. For us it's AT&T, which is evil, or Comcast, which is evil and also unreliable.

Current Mood: pissed off

Wow, just look at my procrastination skills. I promised ages ago I'd upload my pics from the aftermath of the ice storm that hit and here we are at the start of spring (at least where I am) and I still haven't uploaded them.

Well, here they are!

( Very large pics this way! )
Unfortunately, this WOULD have been a really awesome batch of pics if I had just remembered to walk in the other direction of my neighborhood where one house has a sad cherub statue on their porch. He would've looked so cool covered in ice. :( Maybe I can get him the next time we have an ice storm.

Also, I'm going to try and go back to my church tomorrow to check out the new college sunday school class. Why? Because I'm not quite ready to cut off all ties with them yet and I already had a political argument over facebook this past week with two of the members. I know it would probably be better for me to just remove them all from my facebook and forget they exist, but I'm a scaredy cat. I don't want to clue them in on the fact I think they're bigoted jerks who could do with some education just yet.
(especially since they'd be all like "OMG, SATAN GOT KELSEY, LET'S PRAY THAT GOD RESCUES HER SOUL FROM HELL" if I did. Ugh.)

EDIT: Well, nevermind that. I forgot it was daylight saving time, so I forgot to reset my clock and I woke up an hour too late. Thanks daylight savings time!

I am in a REALLY good mood today, and I refuse to let it be ruined. This means I'm going to hold off on studying for my art history midterm until tomorrow.

This is kind of embarassing....Okay, you know Lauren Fuast? Yeah, the awesome animator who's the wife of the creator of The Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, and who did a lot of work on both of these awesome shows and won awards for it?

Well, she kinda also recently resurrected the My Little Pony TV show. I've heard a lot of people talk about how surprisingly good it is...so, I was bored the other night and gave it a try (the first 13 episodes are on youtube in high quality).
I am OBSESSED now, guys! I always loved the My Little Pony toys, but the TV shows and movies never interested me...until now. And holy crap, is it good! The characters have actual personalities, the writing is great, there's a lot of really funny moments in every epsiode, and the animation is awesome! Also, Rainbow Dash KICKS. ASS.
STOP LAUGHING AT ME! I don't care that it's My Little Pony, I love it. And I'm going to hunt down the toys and collect them!
Also, these are my HBIC Rainbow Dash and Apple Jack.

Yeah, I'm past the point of no return. I'm a sucker for really good animated shows, and this one is ~awesome~.
Oh, and I found Lauren Faust's Deviantart account here : http://fyre-flye.deviantart.com/

Okay, on to less embarassing things. I took a 3 hour walk through the woods and to the duck pond yesterday (it was 20 degrees out. what is wrong with me). It was amazing, really. The Ice Storm that came recently turned every flat surface in my neighborhood into an ice skating rink, and everything else got coated in a later of ice that made the trees and bushes look like they were made of glass. I got some good photos, but I'll have to wait until next week to put them up since my dad's laptop doesn't have photoshop. And today, I shoveled the driveway. And by shovel the driveway I mean "break up the 1-inch thick sheet of ice on the driveway with a hammer and shovel, then toss the pieces into a pile". Harder than it sounds, but it was also fun. Except for the falling down part anyway.
No word yet on my laptop, but I'm going to try calling the repair man later. I miss my computer, as annoying as it is. :(

Current Mood: chipper

I'm going to try to shorten a long story so that I don't go on a terrible rant and make myself look whiney and stupid. This was me last night:

Me: *restarts computer* :I ....
Computer: HEY, BACK NOW
Me: Cool *enters password**hits enter*
Computer: *blue wheel of waiting*
Me: :3 *waits for desktop to come up*
Computer: SURPRISE! BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH! >:D
Me: FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!
Computer: *repeats process for well over an hour*
Me: Come on! I even tried startup repair and safe mode! What's wrong with you!?
Computer: Fuck off and leave me to die in peace!
Me: NEVER! You still have a good chunk of files I have to backup and I'm not losing them!
Computer: Weeelll, you can't back them up if you ca't even get to your desktop! MWAHAHAHA!

So, I took it to the IT department on campus and the guy there determined that I most likely need to have my RAM completely replaced and get the computer store/repair place/whatever to also lift the data off my harddrive so I can safely do a factory restore (for the second time in two months).
Right now I'm using the old clunky senior-citizen of a desktop computer that used to be the family computer. It makes my laptop (when funtioning) look like the roadrunner. I really, really need a new computer. Unfortunately, as of now, this is my total Mac fund:

Mac Fund: $300 out of $1,000
That said, I have a question about summer jobs. Can you still apply several months early (as in say, next month), tell them when you'll be off school and then go in to work if you're hired in May? Some people have told me no, and others have said you can. I need to know because obviously, I'm going to need a summer job and I need to know when to start applying. I'm determined to actually get a job this time so the earlier, the better.

Also, one final note: Until I get my computer fixed/get a new computer (whichever comes first), I will NOT have AIM or YIM, so chatting with me outside of twitter/facebook will not be a possibility.

I cannot wait for Christmas you guys. Not because of the presents (although I do really look forward to that, not gonna lie), but because I GET TO COOK! I was deprived of this on Thanksgiving this year, so I'm especially looking forward to cooking Christmas dinner on saturday. COOKING IS FUN OKAY? And this year I've decided I'm going to do something out of the ordinary, and, instead of throwing some garlic powder into the mashed potatoes and calling them garlic mashed potatoes, I'm actually going to roast a bunch of garlic in the oven. Usually if I use real garlic at all in anything I just chop it up and saute it, but this year I want to do something yummier. I'm also going to try and get my sister to bake something, since she's awesome at making deserts.

(and I just realized I don't have any Ratatouille gifs. Note to self: get Ratatouille gifs!)
Although, all that activity in the kitchen means we're all going to have to clean it somehow. It so cluttered right now, and we're going to need the space.

Also, for some reason my photoshop (and all my other adobe software) refuses to re-install. D8 Noooooo.
At least my tablet came with a photoshop elements disc. =/

Oh, and I'm trying to train myself not to speak my mind to my dad too often and just remain silent when he says or does something especially stupid. I know it probably isn't a good idea to keep too much of my emotions bottled up, and I'll probably eventually just explode everything all over him, but.....for now it helps me avoid drama. Maybe I can find a more appropriate outlet before I explode, too. Moving out isn't an option, so I have to work with what I can.

Current Mood: content

YAY! MY COMPUTER IS WORKING AGAIN! And even better, my dad never even had to find out it was infected, so I don't have to get shouted at! I still have to put photoshop and the rest of my adobe software on it, but I already have firefox, yahoo messenger, and itunes added on (though I do need to load all my music backups). Reformatting the hard drive also seemed to fix my earlier problem of the lightbulb in the screen being too bright, because suddenly there's contrast again (which for whatever reason you can't adjust manually on a laptop).
Also, I pulled together all my birthday money from this year and what I made from driveway shoveling today. My Macbook fund now stands as:
$100 out of $500-$1000

YAY!
Hopefully I'll be able to get one of the cheaper ones off craigslist for a good price. I've seen brand new macbook pros on there for as little as 500 or 700 (which, even though it's a lot of money period, is not bad for a mac at all). I don't plan on getting any help from my parents to pay for this either, since I want it to be completely mine. That way if there's some major drama with my dad, he can't take it away like he's done before (and I do expect a lot of drama at some point....it's kind of bound to happen, and I wish I could also buy a car independently for the same reason.)

Non computer related stuff:
I AM DONE WITH THE SEMSESTER! And I should find out if my grades were good enough to get me into the art school some time next week. I am so excited!
And speaking of next week, how is it already almost Christmas!? I am not ready, I still have stuff to mail and now it's probably not going to get there on time unless I fork out some extra cash for extra speedy shipping. But whatever, as long as it gets there I guess.

And apparently there's a POTC trailer out. HURRAY! I'm still kind of scared to get excited, because what if it disappoints me? But I can't help it watching the trailer. It's POTC with zombies and mermaids! (but seriously, what did they do to Barbossa's outfit? CHANGE IT BACK IMMEDIATELY!)

Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY

As anyone watching the weather channel knows, the midwest/east coast/ EVERYWHERE is getting hit with a bunch of snow. Now, I'm typically known as the one crazy person that actually likes this stuff, and the cooler temperatures that come with it (to a certain extent). However, there are some things I HATE about snow/winter, and some days I wonder if I should just swear off it all together and move to Florida sooner than I planned. I've decided to come up with a useless pros and cons list for snow...

Pros

-It's pretty. It makes everything it touches look awesome!
-Your garage turns into a walk-in refrigerator. Woo, extra storage space!
-EXPLORATION! Because when you're the only one in your neighborhood that likes walking in snow, you don't have to worry about kids doing drugs in your woods. IT ALL BELONGS TO YOU!
-You can't get lost while exploring because you leave these handy tracks everywhere.
-And speaking of tracks, it's easier to follow animal footprints for the heck of it.
-Said animals are easier to spot. Unless it's a barn or snowy owl, in which case they just jump out at you out of nowhere or sit there laughing at you going "Haha, you can't see me!"
-Icicles! They also look pretty.
-Photography! No explanation needed.

Cons

-Makes it harder to eat healthy. Because who wants something cold like a salad or cup of fruit after coming in from a windchill that makes it feel like it's minus 20? No, you're going for the hottest thing possible, and that usually means it's bad for you.
-Shoveling that damn driveway.
-Shoveling that damn driveway AGAIN because it snowed again. Sometimes you have to do it over right after you just finished it.
-Whether you or your car gets to school/work in one living piece depends not on your driving skills, but how well the roads have been cleared and/or the presence of evil black ice. I hate that stuff. It sneaks up on you and goes "HAHA! I'm invisible and I'm going to kill you! "
-That feeling that a million little animals are trying to bite your face off. :(
-Snow drifts. One minute you're walking through the forest being awesome, and the next you've fallen into a pit of snow up to your chest. Good luck climbing out while the birds laugh at you.
-Foggy camera lenses. :(
-Foggy glasses.
-The possibility that you could get ironically eaten by starving coyotes while exploring. D8

So, snow seems to primarily offer pretty things, fun, cold, and DEATH. Damn my fascination with wandering aimlessly through the woods. It appears to be taking over my survival instincts. >.>

First thing I want to get out of the way is an explanation for those of you that follow me on twitter/facebook. As you might have noticed, I'm ranting about my brother again. He got into an argument with this other kid who was accusing him of something he didn't do, and he responded by calling this kid a REALLY gross, offensive term. As a result, he came home with bruises and a deep gash in his scalp that would not stop bleeding. My mom rushed home from work to take him to the hospital, and what does he do? Sneak out with my mom's cell phone to work out relationship issues with his girlfriend.
What. the. FUCK. You have a BIG FUCKING CUT in your head and you just go for a walk outside!?
Long story short, he insisted he was fine and refuses to let us take him in to get stitches. Whatever kid, if you get an infection, just remember it's your fault, not ours.

But, HAPPY STUFF!
My stupid intro to college life class is OVER! I don't have to stay on campus late on Wednesdays anymore! My drawing class is also done, which is not so happy because I love it, but my professor really liked my final drawing, so YAY! And now I'll have Tuesdays and Thursdays off for the next couple weeks! And my Classical Mythology professor (who is the most epic professor ever) is renting out a bar for us and all of his past students to come and have a pre-final party on Thursday. My sister has to volunteer that day but she can take me in later if she has time, and her boyfriend might come along. I REALLY want to go, because, hello free bar food! Also, the possibility that I'll actually feel relaxed enough to socialize, and possibly make some friends.
Aaand, my sister and her boyfriend and I are going to see Black Swan Tomorrow! Heck yeah, Aronofsky! That means after tomorrow I just need to see Tangled*, Megamind, and Narnia.

*I NEED TO SEE THIS SO BAD D8

As some of you might now, I've applied to my college's art school in the hopes of becoming a visual communications major with a minor in marketing at the business school. I love designing things, coming up with ideas, imagining up products, etc and I would love to do these things for Disney/Pixar one day. I plan to get this dream going by doing both the Disney College Program, and Disney's Professional Internship program later on and working my way up as others have done before me.

That said, I've been thinking lately about the way companies like Disney market toys and other products for children, especially now that it's the holiday season. I'm always annoyed when I see bright pink things with the Disney Princesses slapped on them right next to a similar blue display covered with Pixar characters. This completely ignores the fact that many boys enjoy the Princess movies too (although, unfortunately, they tend to keep it a secret from their friends), and that plenty of girls love Toy Story and other Pixar movies. I thought of all this again as I was flipping through a Toys R Us catalog, and of course, bright pink pages were filled with girls playing house, dressing up dolls, and pretending to cook or clean while the boys got action figures, swords, hero role play, and science kits. Then I had an idea:

What if instead of organizing these catalogs by sex, they were organized by type of toy, movie, and franchise? And what if they included girls AND boys playing with toys for each? I thought of a hypothetical Disney catalog and in my head it went something like this...

( details under the cut )

These are just some of the ideas that came to me. In my head I can see the whole catalog, and I really really want it to be a reality. If I do get to work with Disney some day, I am totally proposing something like this.

There's this nifty little activity you can do on the official Death Hallows movie website where you can make a ministry wanted poster for yourself.
This is mine:

Is it sad that this makes me feel totally badass?

My mom took this week off to visit her mom in Delaware, so she could unwind and be away from the stress at home, and she just got back!
YAAAAAY!
Call me a dork for being this excited, but in case you hadn't noticed, I love my mom. It's like they forgot to cut the umbilical chord when I was born or something.

Anyway, she also has this weekend off so we're going to go grocery/fun shopping together and just be awesome. We still have to deal with my brother, but we're trying to work on that gradually. My dad told him about some of the stuff we found out and he didn't deny anything. I'm not sure if that's a good or a bad thing, but soon his therapist will be in on this too.
I would love to drag her along to see Legend of the Guardians, but stupid Paranormal Activity 2 is bumping it out of IMAX, so I'll have to wait until it gets to our newly 3D-equipped dollar theater (because this movie HAS to be seen in 3D. I saw it in IMAX by myself, and it was like whoa, that is awesome right there.) But it will be worth the wait because this is exactly the kind of film my mom loves. We're both in love with the whole dark-children's-fantasy-with-animals scene like Secret of Nihm, Watership Down, Warriors, etc.
And oh yeah, that reminds me. Less than a month until Harry Potter! Oh my gosh, it's going to be so awesome. I might just come dressed as Tonks, and I can find a costume for my mom too.

Wow, talk about a mood swing....

Whatever your problem is, JUST GET OVER IT! Your life is NOT hell. You are about as privileged and spoiled as they come. In fact, YOU are the reason our house is not the least bit peaceful.

Ignore this post if you have no interest in observing more of my odd late-blooming teenageness-that-should-have-happened-already.

Basically:

PHONES! 8D

I want a shiny phone. In January, we all plan on getting new ones since that's when our 2-year plan is up. I was under the impression that since my dad just replaced his (an old phone from 2004) and lent it to me to use, he was just going to have me keep this one, but according to my mom, I do get one of my own after all.
And this is the one I want:

www.wireless.att.com/cell-phone-service/cell-phone-details/

It's pretty much free now if you have at&t! Before it was more like $75, but now you can buy it for 1 cent (what is the point of such a low price anyway? I don't get it.) and just pay for the plan.
Although knowing my dad he will want me to pay for the data plan, so I'll have to look into getting an on-campus job next semester, which I don't mind. I've been told that on-campus jobs will work around your classes and totally understand if you have to take a day off to study or take a test, as opposed to McDonald's where they'll say "NO! Get your ass in here and work!"

Anyway, you can blame

ericadawn16 for this. :p She has a similar phone-with-an-awesome-camera that's been seducing me ever since she got it.
Plus, this has GPS, which will probably come in handy when I drive down to florida in a year or so to do the DCP since I am terrible with directions and will more than likely miss an exit and get lost.

Oh, and I just found out that there's a hack I can use on my Canon powershot to make it shoot RAW* photos! 8D
THIS IS AMAZING!
*(RAW photos are completely uncompressed files of the photos you shoot, which means they are of SUPER AWESOME QUALITY)

YAAAAY!
Remember when my Disney store closed and I was pathetically sad about it? Well today my mom and I drove about a half hour to forty minutes to the last remaining store anywhere near us! And they've improved the store since I last went too. The floor is this sparkly red tile instead of the plain white tile they had before, they've expanded the back, and it looks great! I flitted all around the store just looking at everything and showing all the super adorable stuff to my mom and being way too excited than what's probably deemed appropriate for someone my age. I noticed they have also added a lot of classic!Mickey stuff like a Steamboat Willie snow-globe, which I thought was really cool.

Here is my swag!
( Swag beneath the cut! )

Also, next week my mom and I are going to try and see Legend of the Guardians, which I am super excited for! 8D
Yes that's right, the movie with the owls and the 30 Seconds to Mars song in the trailer that people on ONTD were laughing at. I don't care, HATERS TO THE LEFT! I read the books when I was younger. They were awesome then and they are still awesome now.
(and if this film is successful, I better see some sequels and a Watership Down remake too.)
(....a Warrior cats movie would also be nice thank you)

Sooo, they had the Disney College program information and recruiting meeting today, and it was awesome!

First they showed us this video that displayed clips from various things that are a part of the company, to show just how many different jobs they have to offer. I guess most other people there didn't know that Disney owns ESPN and ABC, because after the video people were like "WAIT! Lost is Disney!? o_o My sports channels are Disney? Wait....Desperate Housewives!?"
And we talked about a bunch of stuff, and saw what the apartments look like and yadda yadda.

But the best part was when she talked about all the different education opportunities, majors, and how each of those could translate into a future job with the company.
Because, she brought up education, which is one of the things I want to major in and I thought "education? What kind of education jobs would they have?"
Well apparently they have these:
Animal Kingdom Education Presenter
College Program Education (duh)
The Disney University

So in other words, even if I never get to do anything with Art and have to stuck with education, I can still work for Disney.
8DD
YAAAAAAAAAAY!

There was more stuff they talked about, but I won't get into all of it. And I had to miss the last ten minutes to get to my drawing class.
(but they have these videos on the website anyway so I can just watch the last one at home)
I can't wait to do this program! I have to wait a year or two, but it's going to be awesome!
