[Lovely]

Hey, thanks for starting this thread Saturn. I was really busy at work today and I didn't get a chance to post much. (Busy on Sunday running errands for my mom .)

Highs

- Diet Mountain Dew and Starbursts! They help me through the day...
- Recieved the very cool GBA game "Riviera" this week. It's pretty fun.
- Picked up the Sep2005 issue of Newtype. LOKI Centerfold ^__^ !
-My Narutard essay at Livejournal getting a good response. I don't know, I was just surprised ^^ .

Lows

-***
-I post at work sometimes, so I'm just putting this in spoiler tags so it's not easily readable. Just in case. *ahem*
That said, my work depresses me so much v_v . I'm so frikin' timid! And one of my co-workers who I share my room with I CAN NOT stand. She's always so damned grouchy and seemingly judgemental. I also hate how I'm considered "just a little kid" at work. I realise I'm the youngest there but I'm 24 for God's sake. I'm not that young. Stupid old people trying to steal my joy ;_; .
It's hard for me because I just don't get along with people very well V_V . *sigh*.*** Ah, sorry for the angst. I just had to let that out.

-My mother. Driving me crazy. Various reasons.

-Silent ^_~ .

Neutrals leaning towards high
- I got a new car~ My old one kept braking down...
Anyhoo, my new car is a blue Chevy Cobalt (and I'm reminded of Kamui from the Cobalt Knights in .hack ^^;.) It's great! The air works, it doesn't smoke, the CD player works..
Including insurance, I have to pay about $165 more than my previous car. That's why the new car is Neutral .

- The "say what you want" forum at AoD. Yes, some of the posts are just pure angry angst. BUT, some of the posts in thier are oddly hillarious as well.

Quote of the Week

Well, you f**ked it up, now you get the long version. WITH SLIDES.

-Tycho in this Penny Arcade strip in response to Gabe's attempt to prevent a boring conversation.
I don't know, that line just made me laugh. What Gabe TRIED to do seems like something I would of tried XD .

[StrawberryInuPie]

Ugh...last week...

Highs
-Got the week off of school because i got uber sick. x.x ...Yes. That's a high. >><<
-Papaya's comp's working better...we got to RP some~ ...Dunno why she hasn't come by here. o.o;
-Icon whoreage~ ♥ >D

-This site.

...I feel like more should go there, but I can't think of anything.

Lows

-..Break-up. Painful one. ._.
-....Crying over something that seems so stupid..but I know it's not. .__. I can't help loving them but all they do is hurt me and apparently I hurt them..
-....The words "I'll be honest and say I have." won't leave my head....
-Learning I was being cheated on. While I thought it was true...when she said it.....>_<
->_< Her writing about how wonderful he is in her LJ...makes me feel so worthless .__.
-...Just... .__. Gah, it's so frustrating..

Neutral
-Got a new aim name...I like it it's just...I had to get away, that's why I made it...to try and end everything. >< .....ghuihiurg

*sigh* ._.; Meh, things might be getting better..I really don't know..

[kfttjdb]

HIGHS:

- I managed to catch up on my sleep! (Crap, I act old sometimes)

- I met someone that doesn't annoy the crap out of me everytime we talk. (maybe that should be neutral...meh)

- (I'll add more later, can't think...)

LOWS:

- In reference to Lovely's spoiler rant: Oh my gosh, I feel your pain! I'm the youngest employee here and it's a real pain because they see me as a kid. That just happened to go to school, possibly early. ("Aw, she's so cute" and crap like that) Gosh, I have to wear make up now. Good grief!

- My ex-friend that I ranted about a couple of weeks ago is becoming a stalker. If he shows up at my house or calls me one more time, I'm calling the police. Seriously.

- My mother asked me the other day why I still watch "cartoons". I won't elaborate on that. *groan*

- I put 15 dollars in my gas tank the other day and couldn't even get it to the half mark.

[Gus]

Highs:

-School aint so bad, yet!
-I'm almost caught up wit the Naruto manga

[Lobsterdeth]

Highs
-Got Killer 7 back from bro. :3

Lows
-Sister is teh suck.
-Killer 7's ultraviolence sometimes scares me. :<
-My SON OF A BITCH Gamecube doesn't wanna read the discs anymore. :<

[KuroiInu]

Lows:
I hate myself. I can't tell anyone anything because I'm so shy. I've been horribly depressed the past couple weeks. I upset my friend. She must hate me. He must hate me. I just hope that I haven't hurt anyone except for myself. Usagi's not on. I kind of needed to talk to her. And I'm sure she'll be upset now, but it's not her fault that I'm like this. That I'm so hesistant to say what it I've needed to say. I [hate myself.

The word awkward. I hate it. I absolutely hate it. TT-TT Because I'm pretty sure I know what's being implied. It hurts that that meant nothing.

[Drave]

Highs:
- No school today OR tomorrow because of Ophelia. Actually, this is more of a neutral. The fact that I'm pushing that deadline by which I need to make up an Algebra 2 test isn't helping my grade any...

- Not that I think the hurricane will do any damage to us.

- Seems like every commercial lately includes background music by obscure artists. Bloc Party, The Arcade Fire, Iron and Wine, etcetc.... I consider myself amused.

- Coming across rare Coldplay EPs on the interweb >3. I will so be abusing my iShida tonight.<--iPod

- Had a cold last week. Don't have it this week :3.

- Going to see The Exorcism of Emily Rose this weekend with my friend Meredith/whoever else this weekend <33.

- The guy I've kind of had a crush on keeps making passes at me X3. Normally I wouldn't care about romance in the least bit, but I think it's pretty cute.

Lows:
- I miss being in art class. Drawing in my spare time keeps me busy, but having it every morning was nifty and got me off on a good start.

- Algebra 2 in general XD. Linear programming, to be even more exact.

[KuroiInu]

Highs:
- I'm feeling a tiny bit better. *weak smile*
- SKU is full of kind, sweet people. You know who you are. ^-^ Thanks to all of you.
-I've read a bit:
-One Piece, Volume 1
-Wolf's Rain, 1
-Wolf's Rain, 2
-Shaman King, 7, again and again...
-I have a hundred average in Spanish. ^o^

Lows/Neutral?:
-I finally let out something yesterday that I thought might help, and now sort of regret it because... I'm me.
-Didn't do as well as I wanted to on a quiz, and it's -NOT- because I didn't know the material. It was a first quiz, so I didn't know what to expect, and in my unhappiness, I ended up slacking off and not writing enough. I'm furious with myself, because I never do that, especially on a first quiz. Half the time I write too much. I wouldn't care if I didn't know that I knew all of the material... >T.T<

[Throes]

Highs:

- A good, and successful Naruto dub
- Fullmetal Alchemist DVD 5 and Vol. 3 (manga) comes out soon

Lows:

- Narutards complain about the Naruto TV dub for really no reasons
- I have to bash the Narutards for being so oblivious to the fact that there are much much worse dubs, voice wise, edit wise, and all around general wise, dubs *coughonepiecedubcough*]
- My car battery died on me

[Shadowchan]

HIGHS
-My Mankin DVDs should be comin' soon (Low- They're bootlegged )
-I have money! Well...a little bit...
-Got my first college recommendation letter written!
-Caught a praying mantis. (I love those things...)
-Read "Watership Down" again. My favoritist non-manga book on the planet.

LOWS
-College forms. It's like death with a $40 application fee.
-The one college I wanted to go to doesn't have a pre-vet program. *stabs Wooster*
-Mankin is still over.
-Too much drama at my school.
-My group in Government class f-ed up our 100point project. AFTER I made it all myself and it was beautiful. (I let 'em hold it overnight and they just decided to re-do it...BADLY!)
-Need...job...now....

Quotes:
"Why does this taste like baloney?" Me, as I eat cereal.

"Bargains, bargains, El-ahrairah... There is not a day or night but a doe offers her life for her kittens, or some honest captain of Owsla his life for his Chief Rabbit's. Sometimes it is taken, sometimes it is not. But there is no bargain, for here what is...is what must be."

-The Black Rabbit of Inle from "Watership Down"

[Useless]

[kfttjdb]

New Neutral: (not sure if it's a high or low yet)

- I dyed my hair. Again. It looks...interesting. I don't know if I like it yet, and frankly, I don't know what color this is...

[KuroiInu]

Oh yeah, I forgot...

Confidence booster of the week!

Me: (to a friend) Your hair looks really pretty like that, _. You should do that more often. ^-^
_: I can't do it like that all the time. It gets static-y. Like yours...
Me: ... *laughs, but is actually mildly embarrased*

Quotes!
Me: <in the middle of an argument> ... then the shirt is pantaloons!!! >.<
Random Eavesdropper: Did you just say "the shirt is pantaloons?"
Me: <not sarcastically> No. *laughs* Why on earth would I say that? Man, I need to speak in a clearer voice... ^^'

Me: Technically, you're forwarding away.
