Greyscale death

So I was all kinds of bored and unmotivated last night. So I wrote something I've been intending to turn into a short story of some kind at some point. It's probably crap, since I haven't written anything outside of PbP rp's for aaaaaaaages.

short story )

Comments and criticisms welcome.

Random picnic what

 So I was invited to a picnic/outing/movie today by someone who I went to primary school with (but wasn't friends with at the time, so I didn't actually remember her) but have met again at a party recently. It was several kinds of random, but what the hell- we had an interesting conversation or two at the party, and I knew 2 other people who were there as well to start with.

Anyway! Random picnic, I wasn't doing anything else today, so why not. And success! I met a bunch of cool people, including another girl who was at my primary school (although from another class). The lesson: parks are a good place to meet people. Also random.

Lol quiz. Dammit Shaun. >_>

Your result for The Heart Test...

Lonely Heart

You are 40% Independent, 50% Idealistic, 60% Intimate, and 80% Indulgent!


The Lonely Heart

Dependent, Realistic, Intimate, Indulgent


You are the most misunderstood of hearts, the Lonely Heart. Your desire for love and your want of harmony and intimacy are all very loving qualities. At the same time you are very down-to-earth, which may present a more cold or hard demeanor than you actually possess. Your qualities are all of the quieter types, so you may be shy, leading to difficulties in love, which is hard for you, being so caring as you are. You want love, but your realistic nature may work against these more idealistic desires.


Matches for the Lonely Heart:


The Healers's Heart

The Healer's Heart is both realistic and values harmony, just as you do. The Healer is more passionate than you are, but you can appreciate this quality. The Healer in independent, and while you may wish them to dote on you more, you can can appreciate their self-sufficiency. The Healer will always be there for you when you are down, and you will find that they make a wonderful match.


The Patron Saint's Heart

The Patron Saint is, like you, dependent, realistic and values harmony. The Patron Saint will understand your more down-to-earth views as wells as your need for love and want for unity in a relationship. The Patron Saint is more passionate than you are, and this is something you can definitely appreciate. The Patron Saint's protective nature will leave your lonely heart feeling loved, and you will appreciate them watching over you, as well as the fact that they seem to understand you well.



.
Your exact opposite is The Lively Heart.




Avoid Explicits if you can. You need love and the feeling of being loved, and an Explicit may not understand or appreciate this, leading to conflict. Idealists may also be difficult to get along with if you are stubborn. But if you can adapt and appreciate their ways of thinking, a relationship with an Idealist can work.

Fumble

My brain needs to learn to react instead of freezing. Or rather, in some way other than freezing. >_<

Edit: Or to stop taking drunk people seriously. That too.

Acquaintance, please

Apparently I can get home drunk at 2:30 am, sign on to messenger, and immediately get messaged by two people.

I know too many insomniacs :p

divine indecision

 So according to this brain sex test, I'm a mental androgyn. Damn right; I scored smack dot in the middle of the masculine/feminine spectrum.

Not that anyone's surprised, or anything. To quote Stan, "lol that is quite telling :p although I'm not sure -what- its telling". >_>

Karma fucking has it in for me. Seriously.

In other news, today I lost my thermos, which means no more hot tea at uni until I replace it. Oh, the horror.
... but seriously, who steals a fucking thermos? >_<

Aargh.

Why the fuck would fucking windows unpack an archive file (slowly) to a fucking temp directory on one drive before fucking moving it (fucking slowly) to another drive!?

Why not fucking just put it in the right place to fucking start with?!

AAAAAAAAARGH. DAMN YOU WINDOWS AND YOUR ALL-PERVASIVENESS. And damn computer games that require I run it >_<

Hrm.

Someone recently asked me something along the lines of "Even if you don't like guys, can't you tell whether a guy is hot?"

I replied that I normally don't even consider it. But damn, one of the guitarists for the band I saw tonight was hot. Perhaps he was just feminine enough in appearance to register somewhere on my radar?

Lackluckter

I seem to be consistent about finding out about concerts a day or two ahead... which is not generally conducive to being able to go. Either I can't make it, the tickets are sold out, or I can't find anyone else to go. This has happened to me a good few times now xD

Nothing to do but smile and laugh about it, I guess :p

At least I have Opeth tickets already for a few months now. I got paranoid about that after just missing a Neil Gaiman Q&A session, and I've managed to assemble three others coming along... and possibly two more that we might meet at the concert if they manage to afford tickets in time.

I'm not sure if I'd laugh or cry in the case that something came up to prevent that from all working out. I might just kill a poor, defenceless imaginary friend, or something. >_>

On dreams and getting the fuck out of bed already

My dreams have been taunting me with things I can't have. I guess that's better than most of my other dreams recently, which have involved all the little things going horridly wrong. This one was the reverse; all the little things went suddenly right.

In a way, it's worse. Because then I start thinking about how things could be, rather than being content with how things are, and it hurts a little. I'll deal, though :)

In other news, I need to get the fuck out of bed and start getting ready for classes today. 10am is way too early in the morning for higher mathematics.

Can't sleep silence will eat me

This song is absolutely beautiful >_>

I have this problem every night whereby I don't want to go to sleep... because that would mean switching the music off. Or I don't want to leave my computer to go do... whatever, for the same reason. So I'll keep doing something mindless that keeps me at my desk and listening, instead of whatever I'm supposed to be doing.

This makes me happy. Sure, L.A. isn't Sydney... but a show means the kidneythieves are active again, and as such there's even a small chance that we might be seeing a new album :D

I've been contemplating dying my beard-thing green, just for kicks. Or even green streaks/tips/something in my hair.

How to not fail at food

I've been having a series of discussions with people the last few days over a very interesting topic (coincidence much?)- the person is either vegan/vegetarian or wants to become so, but this is difficult because they don't know how to cook.

First of all, I'm surprised more parents don't teach their kids to cook. It's something I grew up and took  for granted.

Second of all, I've had a stroke of genius: I should teach cooking classes for vegan/vegetarian students!
It would be a perfect job. I cook daily; generally interesting meals, as well as simple quick stuff for breakfasts and whatnot, and I know how to cook using a minimal amount of time, space, and often improvised ingredients. Plus I'm cheap to feed.

... now, if only I had the requisite free time. And a kitchen with enough stoves to teach in. >_> Maybe when I'm done with Netzer; I reckon there's money in it, and it's a good cause xD

FUCKING CLIFFHANGERS

I've been watching Death Note recently (finally!). It's reminding me of how irritating certain anime series can be in that the episodes are short, but the story arcs are long... and so every bloody episode is an agonising cliffhanger. I'm very glad I tend to stick to watching series that have already been finished-- waiting a week or two for the next episode to be available is a painful experience. In this case, I just finished watching episode 6. I'll watch 7 tomorrow.

In other news, my collection of music has now passed 50 GB, thanks to [personal profile] shorelle. It's not often enough that I meet people with such similar taste in well, everything ^__^

Writer's Block: On Your Tombstone

[Error: unknown template qotd]I wouldn't normally bother with these, but the question caught my eye. And I'm bored.

So I spent a moment thinking about it. And I think I'll leave it to whoever has the grim job of burying me, since it will matter more to them than to me at that stage :p

Oh morbidity, how you light up my lonely nights ^_^
... that sounds a bit weird.
