What if I

called you Maureen?

Why Not?

Name five places that fall into the following categories:

1) Favorite Destination -- someplace you've visited once or often and would gladly go again South Dakota, either Custer or Rapid City. There is absolutely nothing in any direction if you just go a few minutes outside either city, and I love it. Beautiful. And yet, if one feels like being un-hermity, town is just a short drive away. Perfect. Chicago would be good too =]

2) Unfavorite Destination -- someplace you wish you had never been (and why) I honestly don't have an answer for this. Um...I mean, I bitch about a lot of places kinda a lot, but I don't wish I'd never been somewhere. But if I think of something, I'll edit.

3) Fantasy Destination -- someplace to visit if cost and/or time did not matter Southern France, anywhere in Japan, California (specifically in the next few days *jealous*), Forks, Fleet Street...Right now, I want to be in Dbo.

4) Fictional Destination -- someplace from a book or movie or other art or media form you would love to visit, although it exists only in imagination Bahahaha Hogwarts, Hogsmeade, Castle Rock (ME), Narnia (don't Arty, don't even touch it).

5) Funny Destination -- the funniest place name you've ever visited or want to visit Menominee's up there, but I think I might have been. I'm sure there're more, I'm a tad brain-fried. Again, if I think of some, I'll update.

This looks so much better in my journal.

It was a dark and stormy night...

I love clichés.

It wasn't dark, it wasn't stormy; hell, it wasn't even night. But it makes it more dramatic, doesn't it?

It was a dark and stormy night. The phone line had been mysteriously cut dead, and there was now a mysterious scratching sound on the front door...

Just kidding. Sorry. I've read too many cheap books for my own good.

Well, that's not true either. No book is cheap, even at the dollar store. I meant "not good."

But that can't be. There is no such thing as a "not good" book. Only books that I don't like. But I didn't not like those dollar store books. They just...weren't my favourites. Yeah.

Oh! I'm supposed to be telling a story.

Anyway. It was just after lunchtime, on a partly cloudy day when the phone rang. It was my friend Arty (though she wouldn't like me calling her that) asking what was up. Nothing, I told her. So she asked if I could come over. Sure. So I did. Then we sat around, playing musical soundtracks and singing along. And it was fun.

That's it. That's my story.

Seems rather ridiculous when it comes right down to it, doesn't it? That's why I tried to embellish it with clichés. That sorta failed.

But yeah. That's it.


Oh! The moral is -

I love my friends.

They make me happy.

They get me through life.

Even when I fail at it.


But it's all good.

Because
I LOVE MY FRIENDS.

So Far, and Yet So Close

This is the second time today I've had the urge to update this silly thing, so I figured I should.

But what to talk about...How 'bout life?

In six days' time, I will be done with my freshman year of college. o_O Talk about intense. Granted, I've got to get through my finals first...*twitch* I'm not talking about this anymore, it's depressing.

Took a walk into town. Hm, let me amend that to say "hike" - the walk lasted a good forty minutes. And it poured on us for most of the trip. I think my jeans might be dry, dunno about my "purse." Doubt it. We went just to wander the Goodwill in town, and that was mildly worth it. I picked up the original Sims and the Livin' Large expansion pack. But lo! the new phenomena that is Windows Vista does not like the lowly Sims. >.< I also picked up Ecstasy: Three Tales of Chemical Romance. I've read it before, and figured, why not? It was fifty nine cents. (Everything total cost me under five dollars. Yay Goodwill!)

I have a shit ton of packing to do. Ew.

Stress is getting to me. This has been one of my worst semesters ever. Depression's set in, only in (likely) clinical form this time...um...yeah. That's actually all I'm willing to say about it here. Let's just say May 7 can't come soon enough. Insha'allah, next year will be ten times better.

I also keep having these random-ass dreams. I won't detail them on here, mostly because I can't remember all the details, but I'm beginning to notice a trend. Masbeth...?

Reckon that's all for now. If I think of summat else, I'll update again.

i can haz sleep?
