In order to distract myself from a very shitty week click this!
So what if I can't understand a lick of Swedish, so what if the song almost competed in the Eurovision Song contest (*snerk*), 'tis purty and one of the nicest anime videos I've ever seen. From one of the kewlest anime series I've actually seen in its entirety this century. ;) I miss the money and time I devoted to such things. Woe!
WATCH NOW! NOW!

3:16 am my time and still up. Yep, reading band slash. This could be a problem. :-p
I'm also contemplating getting a paid account again. I'm tired of my 6 icons, to be honest. I miss my big batch of crazy H/D and other stuff that's uploaded here that I can't use. But I don't want any stupid adds with the plus option, so paid is looking mighty fine. I'd have to update LJ more and be around all the LJ comms I'm in, which I haven't done in forever. When I updated earlier, I completely forgot how to do do LJ tags. Had to dig for the lj cut tag. Goes to show how long I was gone from here. That, and tagging an image to the post. Forgot that too.
Maybe a 2 month trial with free piccies? Must think some more on this.

Wow, this looks the same and yet not.
Yes, I live, for those that remember me. No, I really do!
Stuff that's gone on has been... aplenty. Maybe I'll get back to LJing again and actually being electronically alive. We'll see.
P.S. MASSIVE BEAR HUG TO BRI-MIME!!!!!!!!!!! (you knew I wouldn't forget that. Hee hee, dead mime)

So I get my little FedEx package this afternoon, and I do a happy dance because my Adobe CS 2 is here. All is well.
Cue to now, where it's brought me near to tears. I couldn't stall it all at once because I don't have enough RAM, apparently (I thought 256 was enough, guess not) so I figure, hey, disk by disk is all cool. Yah, right. I entered the serial number for InDesign and it told me it was invalid. Cue screaming. Lather, rinse, repeat - always repeat.
I have to call tomorrow for the support center because if I do it now, off hours, they'll charge me extra (WTF?)
I need to get off the intrawebs stat before I kill stuff.

I think I got screwed over on shipping in an Ebay auction. Scratch that, I know I got screwed over. 8 pairs of earrings and you want $9.70 First Class shipping from PA? Fuck you with a rusty spike, asshat.
I still gotta pay it though. *seething*

Gah, school tomorrow. Break is over. Woe is me. At least it's at night, so I don't have to kill myself by waking up early. Yay!
Finished the dress for show #1 photo shoot. Yay. Only thing left is the little purse. Maybe it'll be photographed? Who knows...
Now that you've skimmed this I shall go back to doing... something. Eh.

This is just kind of weird.
Funny though, in a very odd way.
Memo to neighborhood asshats, 4th of July passed. As in, it was over quite a number of hours ago. Why are you still detonating your stash of illegal fireworks? Quit hurting my ear drums!
I so hate the 4th of July.
Gonna have my first meeting for the show next Saturday. I also get to pay them $300 to be in there. I gets perks, forget what they are. I said it at one time or another.
Need to finish one dress for the school show by this time next week for the photoshoot. I've so been slacking on that, but I'll do it tomorrow for sure.
I still need a new fandom. *massive 2x4 HINT*

Dropped off my media kit this morning. Now, I have to wait until mid July to see if I made the cut. The show is in late August. That means IF I'm picked, I have less than a month to whip out 3 runway-worthy garments, not to mention work on the 5 that are due for the school show.
The organizers of this? Not very with the head smarts.
I hope I get in. I just don't know.
Now, off to get Hannah's pEU books off the bookshelf so I can gain a foot of room for more fascinating stuff. No intrawebs for me tonight, I think.
The flaming retaliation? Shall wait. :-D

Update on the fic I flamed last night, since Yuppo wanted the link.
She erased my review! *giggle* There's probably a huge author's rant in her latest "chapter" which I won't read till later tonight, I have to go drop off my media kit.
And of course, all her minions are rushing to defend her, OMG, I AM A BIG MEANIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I find this all terribly amusing. Now I feel like creating a sham account at AFFN and SIGN the review, so she can't delete it. HEE HEEE!
Hey, I need some unholy amusement. :D

I'm seriously, seriously tempted to flame a story to high heaven. It's just the right candidate for it. Grammar hell, OOC hell, and just complete wrongness.
I'm debating as to whether it's worth it. Shall I lament traumatizing a poor wittle emo girl's soul?
Choices...
ETA: Aww, screw it, I flamed it. I'm assured by
ms_le_fey that it's DAY-UMN!!!! I think that's a good thing.
Feel rusty though.
Press kit due tomorrow morning! *MASSIVE WIBBLE*

Snape/Palpatine.
Ran across a summary for that on Schnoogle or Dark Arts, forget which. Now, I'm all for crack fic pairings, and trying to make the impossible work, but THOSE TWO?! I wanted to burn my eyes out with acid after reading that.
*shudder*
Made the semi final cut for the fashion week thing. My press kit is due on Monday, then I'll know. I'm hoping I'll make it, but I just don't have any idea.
Vaca! For 3 weeks. But it's a working vaca. Damn it!
Erm.... mhrgl? Don't know what else to say.

So I said a while ago that I'd signed up for 3 shows. I dropped one because I would have killed myself in an awesomely gruesome fashion if I'd stayed. Tonight, tonight was interview night for show #2.
I didn't count with the Project Runway factor.
We had cameras. Real tv/movie cameras with lighting, and those mikes that tv people wear. We were interviewed 3 seperate times. Pre-interview, the interview with the panel where you show off your portfolio, and post interview to talk about how the whole process went.
Nerve wracking. Seriously.
I was so nervous, and worried about the whole damn thing. We didn't find out until 6 pm today. TODAY. No pressure, eh? There were a few people from other sorrounding schools. We were waiting around for the crew to set up everything for over an hour and a half, so we didn't start until 7:30 or so. I was there until just past 10 tonight.
And the kicker? Ah yes. There are only 10-12 slots available for us students. Those slots are to be spread out for 5-8 schools. So, 1-2 people per school. Competition is tight, and ARGH. I was just juried in Febraury, and damn am I fucking sick of it. I know that we get incredible perks if we're chosen. Got it, understand, ditto, right on, I salute you, etc. But dude, they're being such hardasses, and I'm under enough stress right now, I don't need anymore.
And d00d. D00D!!!!! If I make it in a week, it's only the SEMI-FINAL cut. I can still be cut! D00d. D00d!!!
And they're thinking of pitching this footage to local tv stations! One of the camera crew dudes was from Project Runway. Yargh, that's going to replace the whale in my nightmares. [/Sea Captain]
Me havey a heart attack soon, yesssssssssss.

OH. MY. GOD.
3 years of being blind to everything and keeping a tight rein on any information was the best decision I ever made.
There are no words. No words at all.
