Japanese down, two psych tests to go.

I'm currently browsing through bad anime fanfiction and balking at the fangirl Japanese used in them. And, ugh. It's bad. But after my performance on my test today, what can I truly say about it? I will never ever speak Japanese again. Not until next semester at least.

*pretends to be productive*

Guess who's going to see Equus tomorrow?

Yes, moi. My friend Lauren demands to see whether Dan Rad. is a true Jew, and I am more than happy to accompany her. We will beat up the ticket man if we can't get tickets. Student rush and all that, you know?

But oh, the excitement.

Need an interesting challenge to throw yourself into this holiday season? Like Harry/Pansy?

Head over to pphp_challenge  and claim a prompt. Our Christmas prompt list is up for our first challenge. Comment to snag one and you're good to go.

Come on. You know you wanna.

Title: Making A Mess

Author: Empath Apathique

Word Count:

Request: Harry/Pansy, moving in together, get a housewarming gift (what is it? What does it do?)

Note: This was so fun! It went away from your request a bit, but…

-- -- -- --

( It's BANANAS! )

I need inspiration. I find it easier to write when given a prompt and a time limit from other people, so I've decided to whore myself to produce some Harry Potter drabbles. HarryPansy and DracoHermione are my OTPs, so I prefer to write those two, but I'm open to other couples as well (*cough* GinnyBlaise, RonLuna *cough cough8). Keep it interesting :)

Leave me a comment with the pairing,  prompt, and preferred rating you'd like to have your drabble include., and I'll try to have it for you ASAP.

And you guys better give me something. I need the practice!

...maybe it would make life easier at Wellesley. Whateves.

I am very sad right now. I go through friends like cotton candy, and fuck you if you think I'm a bad person because of it. I'm not. I'm not a bad person and I'm not a bad friend. I'm a good friend. I'm the kind of person who lied to my mother when XYZ friend broke XYZ thing in my house so they wouldn't get in trouble. I would say that I broke it. I would get in trouble. I'm that kind of friend.

I'm just saying though. Everytime I turn around I'm having a problem with someone here. And God knows that I'm lonely. I'm constantly looking for some kind of connection with a person here that will make me complete happy. And I'm not finding that. But maybe that's ambitious, yeah? I mean, you'll never be completely happy with anyone. But I feel like people keep leaving me. I'm always in a triangle in which I'm fighting with one person and the third friend is put in the middle, and I say, "hey, it's okay, go hang out with Bitch Face." Because secretly I don't want to be ditched, and I think it will make it better if I give my pseudo-permission for her to ditch me. But it's not okay. Especially not when you're always ditched. Suddenly, you're not even being ditched anymore. You're no longer apart of the equation. Former Friend comes in your room at weird hours of the night to vent about things Bitch Face did and the general shittyness of her life--completely distrupting what you were doing and yet expecting you to pay full attention to her problems because she has Me Me Me Syndrome and thinks her problems are the biggest thing in the world right now because she can't see beyond herself, even though she's looking at you, and the half-done homework on you lap. But it's okay, because I'm that kind of person. But I'm tired of constantly giving in relationships that I don't get anything out of. No, I didn't go to the cultural show she planned. Yes, I feel bad, but I thought about it for fucking days, and I realize I can never respect what she put together because she DIDN'T WANT TO DO IT and only did it because Bitch Face was doing it and said "hey, you should do this with me." And you know what, back when Bitch Face and me were still talking, SHE ASKED ME FIRST. But I'm not even going to go there, because me and that hoe DON'T go there anymore, and I don't even care. But still, she didn't want to do it. She wanted to quit every step of the way, because she didn't feel welcome or that she received the appropriate amount of recognition for what she did. But she did it anyway. And yeah, it shows perserverence and all that shit, but I cannot respect someone who forces themself to do something simply because Bestie Bitch Face said "JUMP!" I cannot. I didn't go. And I still feel really bad, because I'm not that type of person who does that. I don't know WHEN to stop giving to people, and usually, I wouldn't even put my foot down here, I'd just keep giving and giving because that's all I know how to do--the only way I think people will realize that they should give back. But she doesn't realize this. Patricia says that I need a new friend, and I have some, but I swear, nothing is fulfilling. Nothing is giving me what I need. Sometimes, it's good, with some people. A lot of the time, it is. But, with the primary girl I'm hanging out with, I constantly feel on the verge of shouting at her, because she's a fucking primadonna who thinks the world revolves around her. And she's cool but still, I shouldn't have to put up with her shit. Not the type she gives.

I don't know what to do. Honestly, I just feel sad.

And I swear to God, if Obama doesn't win tonight, I'm going to die.

Copy this sentence into your livejournal if you're in a heterosexual marriage, and you don't want it "protected" by the bigots who think that gay marriage hurts it somehow.

**I'm not in a heterosexual marriage yet, but I plan to be someday in the future. And I don't think that the two girls--or guys--next door having the same union would hurt it in anyway.

Guess who sent in their absentee ballot today? Yes, I DID. I'm super excited to be voting legally in a large scale election. I mean, it was totally cool going into the booth and telling her who to vote for, but it's nice to do it on my own now, even if I'm just filling in bubbles on a sheet. Let's just hope my vote gets counted. Obama needs all the votes he can get!!

Oh, PS: If you guys aren't already apart of this, you should totally VOTE FOR WELLESLEY COLLEGE to be a part of the Victoria's Secret Pink Collegiate Collection!  I personally don't even own any clothing from the Pink collection but it's awesome to have a school name on their stuff anyways!

Come on, guys. We're a women's college and we're DAMN cool and stylish. Maybe I WILL buy something from the Pink collection if it has Wellesley name on it. Maybe Hillary Clinton will. She went here, after all *hint hint, wink wink*

Here's the link!  We HAVE to beat MIT otherwise we should feel ashamed...  Currently we are 8th but MIT is already in 3rd place! (I think it's because they have boys, who the girls easily manipulate into voting for their school. Which is unfair, I think, because it isn't as if the boys will be wearing PINK gear anyway...)

Vote For Wellesley to be PINK!

Off to study for my Abnormal Psych exam! Who's ready to be diagnosed with schizophreniform disorder??

Guess who just failed their Developmental psych test?

I want to cry.

So my oldest brother--John, who is 29--has a 6-yr-old by this crazy woman. It was one of those serious one night stands. Like, he didn't really know what she looked like (cuz when he saw her in the morning, hot DAMN he was scared!) But yeah,she has his baby. And they're not together, but he loves his kid, and he takes care of him. My brother has two jobs, pays child support, and dude, I'm not saying that he's the best father or man or whatever, because I think he's an asswad sometimes, but he loves his kid. And his baby mama is effing crazy. Like, batshit insane. There's always a new story about her in my house.

And what has she done now?

She has robbed a bank. Her picture is on the Richmond news site.

And for serious, WTF? She gets child support, SSI, food stamps, AND welfare. Why the HELL is she robbing a bank.

She has turned herself in today. THere will be muchos drama to come, but we all know that this is funny as hell. It's gonna be a joke for YEARS.

Fo shizz.

So I have a bit of free time on my hands, and I've decided to dabble with a heartbreaking (but possibly veeeery racy) HarryPansy story that I started this summer. It has a lot of potential. I mean, I actually think it could be good, and I'm looking for opinions.

Anyone want to help?

A blurb:

( I Will Possess Your Heart )

Snagged from desdiamonds !!

Post the first line from your fifteen most recent fics and look for a trend.

The fics go from oldest at the top to newest at the bottom.

1. The door made a slight creaking sound as it opened, disrupting the quiet of the room. (My Hand In Yours, DomonRain series)

2. Keiko groggily opened her eyes, blinking away the last vestiges of the person in her dreams. (True, Yusuke/Keiko oneshot)

3. She was cooking again. (Quirks, Dramione oneshot)

4. She always thought of him when it snowed. (Love Like Winter, Dramione oneshot)

5. Hermione threw open the large French doors that led to the veranda on the back of Malfoy Manor, stumbling outside into the courtyard when she missed the last step. (Waiting, Dramione oneshot)

6. She really shouldn’t have stayed the night with him. (Demolition Lovers, Dramione threeshot)

7. The photograph sat serenely on the mantelpiece, a solitary figure of order in a room that was usually the scene of an ongoing war between two rambunctious boys. (Family Portrait, HarryPansy drabble)

8. She was in the bathroom, makeup strewn across the vanity and a steady stream of steam wafting up from the curling iron. (Lipstick, HarryPansy drabble)

9. Harry Potter bought his underwear from the second-hand robe shop. (Stalking Harry Potter, HarryPansy fourshot)

10. When he sees her, she is alone, sitting at a table at the far end of the room. (Angels Don't Live Here, HarryPansy twoshot)


Trends
-I am random as well.
-I absolutely positively could not write prior to item 7. The first sentences are atrocious (except Quriks, and maybe Demolition Lovers).
-Writing is a process--the more you do it, the better you get.
-I only write for exchanges and things of that sort. The only thing I've written without the pressure of a deadline were my anime fics, and one isn't finished (which sooo says something).

This was fun :)

Just thought this was funny.

Not a damn Cent
One day about a month ago, President Bush was looking for a call girl.
He found three such girls in a local lounge, a blonde, a brunette and a redhead.

To the blonde he said, "I am the President of the United States. Now how much would it cost me to spend some time with you?"

She replied, $200."

To the brunette he asked the same question. Her reply was $100.

He then asked the redhead.

Her reply was, "Mr. President, if you can get my skirt up as high as my taxes, my panties as low as my wages, get that thing of yours as hard as the times, and keep it rising like the gas prices, keep me warmer than it is in my apartment and screw me the way you do the public, then believe me, Mr. President, it isn’t going to cost you a damn cent

lolz.

In other news, I have officially finished my first week of classes. It was... interesting to say the least. I'm taking Developmental Psyc, Abnormal Psyc, Japanese 201 and a Japanese literature class on the tale of Genji. So yes, I have about 200 pages to read a week, and a billion lectures to remain conscious and coherent through.

I'm gonna die.

And, cuz I have to make my life hell, I deleted my exchange story to start from scratch. Uh huh. I'm scaring me too.

( Oh! I have pictures! )

Off to write a story in a week!

so the

pphpficexchange is now over. Head over there to see the results of the voting. This is what I picked up:






Very surprising, I know. Didn't expect to win EITHER category. I only had my eye on one award, which I so pathetically lost, but beggars can't be choosers, and I'm still super happy that I won anything at all. Thanks for everyone who voted.

 

I know I'm late and I suck major ass for that but a very happy belated birthday wish to

emm718, who makes my life sweet and my days oh so gay. Haha.

 

Stole this from somewhere. Added a few questions. I'm interested to see other people's answers though :)

The Fanfiction Writer Questionaire
A lovely fangirl profil in which YOU talk about yourself!

1. How many fics have you posted? 9
2. How many are complete? 6 or 7, depending on how you look at things. All my HP fics are complete, though :)
3. Do you plan to complete your unfinished fics? There are two that I don't plan to continue, simply because they're for an old fandom and my heart isn't in it anymore. It sucks, but that's life. The muse wants what it wants.
4. In which fandom do you write the most? Harry Potter.
5. Who do you ship? Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger, but Harry Potter and Pansy Parkinson is tied with the pair now.
6. What is your favorite story that you've written for this ship? For dramione, it's Love Like Winter. I feel like it's my best written story. I love it.
7. What story did you have the most fun writing? Waiting. One word: Lola!
8. What story did you have the hardest time trying to complete? Right now, I'll say Demolition Lovers, but there's a pphp story I wrote for the exchange that I can't claim yet that was a bitch...
9. What story did you write the fastest? Demolition Lovers. Ten days, bitches.
10. Are you a oneshot kinda gal, or are you in it for the long, epic multichaptered fic haul? Oneshot, twoshot, threeshot kinda gal, actually. Chaptered stories scare me.
11. What genre of story do you think your best known for? Demolition Lovers
12. What is your best story EVA? Love Like Winter
13. What is the least favorite story that you've written? Demolition Lovers
14. What story are you "Famous" for? ...Demolition Lovers. Who came up with these questions...?
15. Which author's first inspired you to write in this fandom? Kyra4 with "Valentine Encounter" and bambu345, with "Complexities." Nuff said.
16. Who inspires you now? Everybody, but I'm proud to say that I will befloorcoaster's hoe 'til the day I die. Not to mention a choice few who I forever fangirl for (emm718, basicaquatics). And the girl who wrote '1-2-3 Testing' and the other who wrote '52 Weeks' at the pphpficexchange. Because those stories were the freaking shizz. 

I hardly think this "profile" is finished (it's rather sparse, innit?) but I added about five questions, and hopefully others will do the same, so it gets big and huge and lives and breathes and all that other stuff. Like, for serious.
 

So the tickets for the free Bon Jovi concert in Central Park totally sold out in an hour. Meh!

...because baby is out! Yes!

It's funny, how I went from doting on a little girl--who's not quite so little anymore--to messing around with this little boy. A picture, because I feel nostalgic.


Now, to sleep...
