Shameless Advertisment

     HEY YALL. ZARINA HAS A BLOG NOW. Yeah, Zarina's my awesome cousin. She writes Life Isn't Rocket Science People, which I think is wonderful name. Have some quotes from her.

      "Scaring random people in shopping malls is my favorite pastime."
    
     *I am pantomining Rolling in the Deep as it plays on the radio*
      Zarina: I don't know you and most certainly am not related to you.

     "Peace love and all that jazz."

     *to me* "You could be in a Kingdom Hearts game because you have ridiculously long eyelashes and big feet."

     "[In a story she's writing] I'm planning on killing the sister's boyfriend and putting the boyfriend in a coma for a year. My imagination is just a barrel of laughs, isn't it?"

      "A geek is someone who eats the head off a live chicken in a circus. Do you do that? I think not, unless you have been keeping secrets."

     "What the hell is Wally the Wizard anyhow?"

     "Kill it! Kill it with fire! ...or water."

      *On Kingdom Hearts pairing Sora x Xion (hinthint they're the same person hinthint)*
      "That would either be narcissism or masturbation, whichever way you roll."

      "Whoop de doodle doo."

      "Your soul is a funny noise."
      "The soul! It made another noise!"

     Anyways, she's awesome an nearly as crazy as I am. Go read her blog. I order thee. It's PRETTY FRIGGIN AWESOME. Did you just read that in the exact way I would say it? I did.

Panic Attack

     My mother just drug me into my old dance studio. Holy crap woman, why are you doing this to me, how dumb are you? This is such an incredibly bad idea. Do you realize that dance is a trigger for me? Do you just not care? Why are you putting me through this, Mom? Whywhywhywhywhy?
     Yes, it's been two years since I quit. No, I'm not over it, okay? That was my life for ten years, since before I can remember.
     ...Sorry about that, but I was having a panic attack and I had to do something.

Drama Llama Update

     Hey y'all. So, an update on the TennisChild situation. I texted her this morning and now we're talking about choir. So, I suppose we've gotten over it. Neither of us are particularly good at apologizing, so we've just kind of moved on and ignored it. Whatever works, I guess.

I Hate Drama. So F-ing Much.

     I have not been on here in forever. Goodness. Mostly, it's because I'm now on deviantART, so that's entranced me for the past couple days.
     TennisChild and I had a fight. I think. It wasn't a yelling 'OMG I H8 YOUZ!!1!!11ELEVEN'. It was more a series of indirect accusations and genral iciness.
     See, I was supposed to spend the night over at her house Sun. The thing is, I hate sleeping over there because the sleeping arrangments are always really uncomfortable. So, I called her to ask if we could forego the overnight and have her come over Monday.
     And then it exploded in my face.
     Her mom called mine to 'express her disappointment' which basically means they bitched at each other for a while. Then TennisChild called me and we had a lovely little frosty conversation while I was cleaning stalls in which she insinuated I was flaky and always cancelled everything. She also told me that had it been HER, she would have gone anyways because she didn't want to disappoint.
     Don't try and guilt trip me, TennisChild. If I don't want to sleep over, it shouldn't be such a big deal. I know I'm a bit of a pushover, but not that much. Goodness...
     My mom's pissed, but my mom's instinctive reaction to everything is to be pissed and hate everyone, so nbd.
     Okay, that was mean and not entirely true.
     Anyways, I never meant to cause such drama. God, I hate drama. Especially when it's with my friends, because then I get all spineless and cowardly. Ugh. SOMEONE MAKE IT GO AWAY! People. I dislike people. Everyone should just be a horse. Life would be so much easier then.
     I'm going to go now, because thinking about all this makes me feel all twisted inside. Can I just quit life and just ride horses? I can deal with THEM.

I Spend Too Much Time on the Internet

Ohmigoodness I am moving here.

     This post is most likely going to be a bunch of random crap becasue I spend too much time on the internet.
     Anyways, I'm thinking about getting an account on deviantART. I'm already on there a fair bit, and I could upload some of my writing, I guess, and maybe some photography. I suck at drawing/painting, but writing is art too!
     Anyways, I've been looking at too many Harry Potter pages on Facebook.

The phrases 'herpin' my derp' and 'lollin' all over the place' are officialy added to my vocabulary.

     Yeah. Too much internet. Anyways, I've been editing some of my writing and I'm feeling rather inadequate. T.T

     I find it much harder to critique my friend's writing than critiquing the writing of complete strangers. I don't want to hurt her feelings, so I can;t exactly tell her "watch out, your character is too perfect- she's straying into Mary-Sue territory. Get rid of the big long paragraphs describing how she gets ready in teh morning. Reinstate the dress code and your making the love interest OOC." I have no problem telling that to a total stranger, though.

     I think I'd like to beta a story. I'd most likely need a Fanfiction.net account, though, another thing on my to-do list.

     So, that's the very top layer of my brain. Scared yet?

LAWLZ.

     Ohmigoodness I crack up every time I see this. Thought I'd share it, in case you live under a rock with no internet connection and are somehow magiacally viewing this because I'm just awesome like that and my awesomness is contagious and spreads to my blog of wonderment and...
     Bystander: Lani?
     ...similar stuff like that becasue how could the epicness NOT be contagious, I mean...
     Bystander: Dude, shut up.
     ...unless you consider me not awesome in which case I'll feel very sad  inside if you happen to be someone who's opinions I care about, but if you're that denture cream website that I keep getting hits from, I just might flip you off. Jus' sayin'.
     Bystander: LANI.
     ...hm?
     Bystander: STOP. TALKING.
     Oh... okay then. I'll just go to sleep now... adios.

Fail 'Supah' Ninja

     You know what I find funny? My guy friend who we'll call SwimmerBoy is, well, kind of a chick magnet. I think of him as sort of an older brother, so we've got a pretty chill relationship. Anyways, he posted a picture of himself on Facebook with underwear on his head, hiding his face. He'd written 'Supah Underwear Ninja' across the picture.
     Now, my first thought when I saw the picture was Oh, SwimmerBoy, you're such a freak. Haha I bet your sister is incredibly embarassed by this. :P (I ride horses with his sister). In the comments, some girl had written 'cuute! ;)'. Wow. The things girls do for guys makes me laugh. SwimmerBoy doesn't even want a girlfriend...
     Anyways, that made me laugh. :P SwimmerBoy is not as good of a ninja as Ninja.

Don't Be Foolish

     I just had a huge argument with my mother. I know, what else is new. Anyways, I made my Skype status lyrics from Headphones by Britt Nicole: 'Anytime you feel alone put on your headphones. Love, love is coming through your head phones'. I got this in reply:
[8:11:17 PM] Top hat: Love is not a sound, it can't go through your headphones.
[8:11:21 PM] Top hat: Don't be foolish, child.
     Goodness, how I love Samurai. When ever I am sad, Samurai makes me happy with funny crap. For example:
*Skype status- Fuck life. That is all*
Samurai: But.. life is full of rainbows. And unicorns. And other happy shit.
     I love my friends who bring light into the sometimes-dark corner of the world I do inhabit.

The Geek and the... Goth?

     While on the internet avoiding responsibility, I took a quiz on 'what kind of guy I attract'. In my defense, the pile of laundry on my floor is the greater evil and I'm bored. Also, I don't actually attract guys unless you count all of the friend zones I get.

Okay, okay, I'll shut up. I still don't like you.

     Anyways, my result was that I attract 'goth/emo guyz!!1!!!eleventyone!!'. I understand not how a goth would fall for a geeky weirdo like me. Also, I was told that I love him very much, even though he steals my skinny jeans. By this, I assume the author means he steals not only my skinny jeans, but my black eyeliner and nail polish as well.
1) I have no skinny jeans for this imaginary guy to steal. I've been planning on getting some, but when  do I will most certainly not ever lend them to my boyfriend. He can get his own.
2) As fo my black eyeliner and nail polish, you no can has. That's my stuff and I would not share. Also, my eyeliner and nailpolish are both sparkly, so that'd make for an interesting goth.
     Feel free to ignore this. I'm a freak, I know. The real type of guys I attract? None. Forever alone. :P

Reduce, Reuse, and Tape It the Heck Back Together

     I own one pair of flipflops. Sad but true. I used to have three, but riding camp murdered them all. They were the cheap rubber ones, so it's no surprise. Anyways, I own a pair of decently made blue flipflops that I've has since the summer. The right one has broken twice, and so I duct taped it back together. Each time the duct tape comes apart, I add more tape. There are currently 4 layers.
     The most common response I get is "why don't you just new ones?" My response was "wait, you can do that?"
     See, I grew up not having oodles of money. My family wasn't poor, but we weren't breathing easy either. I'm used to working off the cost of board for my horse and such. So when my shoe broke, I automatically thought 'just tape it. I can make it last.'
     My dad got a promotion around six months ago, so now we don't have to worry. Still, though, I find it hard to change my mindset. I'm weird that way.
