obama ftw. my liberal is often showing.

there's only 25 days until election day. seriously, if you're over 18 and a citizen of the US, it's not only your right, but your duty to participate in the presidential election. I went and volunteered this morning for Obama's campaign. It's weird to walk door to door and be shut down repeated times because they oppose your views and don't want to hear it.

my liberal is showing.

in other news, my life is still awkward. and messy.
i'm working on it.
going to see Nick and Nora right now. :)

The static whisper in my ear, but in a moment your voice was clear. "I need some time," you said to me. That's when I knew you were gonna make me lonely.  I walk awhile before I sleep, count the secrets that I keep.  I hope for more, I know for sure I fall apart before I weep.  I disconnect the telephone, cause I can choose to be alone.  I'll get more done, I'll have some fun, pretend you're not the only one.

Today was a good day, I think. One of the best by far this month, which, frankly has been shit. I guess it was just the little things that occurred throughout the day. And it's funny how it works, how these things, most often times, are missed, because they're just so insignificant - but on the off chance that you don't, they make all the difference.

School's getting busier - all I ever do is bitch about how much homework I have, because it's true. Next week is jam packed with tests, AND THE PSAT!, which I'm currently freaking out about) so naturally, my weekend would be spent studying for them. I've never had a life to begin with, and now I even have less of a chance of having one. FML. To top it all off, my skin is rebelling against me. I've never had it freak out like this before, and I think I've got the changing weather, and stress to blame. Or maybe I've been slacking off in regards to taking care of it. Now I'm obsessively washing my face and moisturizing it. Also, completely unrelated: I think I'm losing my dimples :( It's devestating, although I don't even know if its possible. Maybe I'm just imagining things. But when I smile they're just NOT THERE anymore.

Aside from it being a good day, it was also kind of nostalgic at least for the first half of the day for me, and I always get like this whenever we somehow end up retelling stories and recounting old memories, like we did in 2nd hour today. Start saying 'Remember when..' and I probably would NOT ever be able to shut up. I've always been sentimental about that kind of thing, and it's one of those habits that I don't think I'll ever be able to let go, no matter how annoying or troublesome it gets. (For those who think that I never talk, well, get to know me and you'll come to realize that I never shut up, haha.) Anyway. It started with Alan basically saying, "You know, everyone was basically at Danielle's last night except you." "So it was almost like old times, huh?" "Yeah...I guess. I guess it was" Then Danielle walked in and joined in the conversation, and so did Lisa, and it spiraled on from there. Oh, memories.

I reallly really realllllllly want to see Nick and Norah's infinite playlist. I have a feeling its the kind of movie that's gonna make me melt into a puddle of goo from all its cuteness and adorableness andd...yeah.  Of course, this is where the 'I wish I had a best guy friend' mentality kicks in, because it would just seem perfect. And yeah. I wish for weird things. I would explain myself, but then that would be redundant, reiterrating the Dawsons Creek parallels, because I'm sure everyone has known of this want since ages ago. It's another one of those things that I never shut up about. I still feel like I'm being left behind when it comes to that. But then again, I'm often struggling to catch up when it comes to many things....sooo

( How about if you... )

the bells ring, are you listening?
in the lane, my eyes glisten
you're a beautiful sight
we're happy tonight
walking in a winter wonderland.

flown away, like a bluebird
but you're here to stay, baby new bird
sing me a love song?
as we go along
walking in a winter wonderland.

in the meadow we can be a snow man
and pretend in tears we'll never drown

baby, let's get married
soon as we can
and you can do your job
just please, don't let me drown

later on, we'll expire
in a show of ash and fire
to face unafraid,
the dreams we delayed
walking in a winter wonderland

in the meadow we can be a snow man
but the flames will always melt us down
to love each other as long as we can
and then we'll drown, mm we'll drown

when it snows, ain't it thrilling?
through your heart, gets a chilling
we'll frolic and play, blow eskimo kisses away
walking in a winter wonderland.

strength is time,
you've got clocks for eyes.
but you break and you break
but not anymore.

</333 can not do this to myself will not do this to myself AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.

full length twilight trailer:

though it'd be better, tbh. but rpattz is gorg, and that scene with him in the sunglasses and the kiss, guh.

anyway, that's pretty much all I wanted to update with. A few randoms for the day:

• my ipod hasn't been working in over 2 weeks, and it makes me so sad. I think I'm finally going to the apple store on tuesday, though.
• Nick and Norah is the cutest book ever and reading it makes me so happy. The writing style is so me and it's inspiring to read.
• work was actually fun tonight. everyone's telling me how awesome I am for getting 37 hours and that I work so hard. great, thanks, but still don't want the hours lol :( but I hear the schedule's changing on wed, so. I hope mine gets changed for the better!
• i've been watching the hills so much omg. I like catching up with it on my own though, and not following it on tv. idk why I suddenly like it so much :(

i am seriously thinking about making a new account cause i'm sick of having to post all my graphics on a community and saying useless things on here.
so i'm probably just going to make myself a new account.
i'll let you guys know as soon as it's done :]

so I had a really mopey, emo entry all ready but lets skip that, shall we?

( or well, this is a bit mopey so I'll cut the work complaining. )

Anyway. fob is keeping me sane through this. And all this lead-up to twilight, and thinking about my trip to chicago for thanksgiving, and thinking about starting nanowrimo! I don't know how I'm going to find the time to write a novel while working full time, though. But I want to do it more than anything.

Yesterday was my sister's 21st, it was fun! We bought lotsssss of liquor and went out to the beach first to have island-y drinks and nachos, and walk by the water. Then we met a bunch of her friends at applebees, and she was pretty loud and drunk haha. Her friends invited her out to play beer pong and her boyfriend made me go with her to "watch" her. So I'm sitting on this patio watching them play, and they're not even nice people (the girls were really annoying), and then my sister and her boyfriend get into a fight and go out front and leave me there, with these strangers, for almost an hour. I felt totally awkward, cause I was just the protector big sis, and these people didn't even take the time to say hello to me, so I just sat there quietly. It was okay though, one boy there was pretty cute and I got a fic idea~ while listening to them talk, so.

Oh! I got asked out tonight :( this guy that I somewhat know (through a coworker) came in and was asking me if I had a boyfriend, and if I was looking for one. omg. He's like 28 and has little to no teeth and is so sketch, I don't even like talking to him in general (lol sorry if that sounds mean.) But before he leaves he goes, "well, let me at least give you my number so we can hang out sometimes." I had to politely refuse like 3 times and just say "I'll see you around" before he gave it up. :( I felt bad but I'm not interested in the slightest, sorry.

The palpitations have almost stopped. I've cut out coffee and soda and subway subs (i just get salads now) and a lot of sugar. But from now on I'm going to be healthy in general, and really try to get in shape! I did a workout video the other day, and oh my I'm out of shape, it made me sore today. But I know I'll feel so much better about myself if I commit to this and really do it this time. :)

I think I pretty much made up my mind at work tonight that I'm going to grad school in the fall.

i will fail a hundred times before i succeed. i could tell a million people my story until someone draws something from it. i could give up ten times before i realized the eleventh is not happening.

don't forget about the blue skies, the sun rise, and all the space between.

It's been so cold here lately, but today it warmed up a bit. I like fall, really, I do, but the transition from the 80 degree weather to 50 degrees is a bitch, not gonna lie. I've been sick the past couple of days :(. I'm so glad this week is almost over. What I want more than anything is to sleep sleep sleep sleep endlessly. I personally think that bears have it made. They basically go on an eating binge then sleep months away in hibernation. Oh, what a life.

It's crazy to think that the holidays are coming up. I am dreading the snow and the cold, but christmas/thanksgiving/etc. never fails to lift me out of my discombobulated funk. I've been listening to Matchbook Romance & Underoath alot lately - it's weird because it's typically not the kind of music I listen to but it brings me a few years back, where I swore that your stories, my alibies was the anthem of my life (it so was not, I was just delusional). Regardless. Good memories.

I've got some pictures, I randomly took them while driving around one day, haha (to the mall! you can see Art Van through the window). Of course, I was wearing the grey wool cardigan that I've been favoring, lately. It keeps me warm, what can I say? Ghsad. The one on the left is obv. from my sidekick - it's always been shit at taking pictures. The one from the right is from Meg's new phone. Ten times better colorwise, hah.

( just a couple of pictures )

I WANT MY NEW SIDEKICK SOON , DAMN IT. :( I wish it was December 18th already. My contract would be up by then. Maybe I'll have a job and I'll be able to get a Data Plan so my phone won't be entirely useless.

Oh, wishful thinking.

well my day was ok. i had 2 tests and I think i got a bad grade in the second one. it was about a book that i didn't read. anyway tomorrow i'll have another test and guess what? NO SCHOOL ON FRIDAY. all that i wanted. :) gonna sleep til lunch time. i just ate a chocolate cake and it was yuuuuum

here's 2 of my videos of this pas week-end.
