Lol, life update time. Good News: First sequence at Vet Tech school is over, and I have a 4.0 GPA. Also have been reading lots of Samuel R. Delany books. V. Good. And, after a short hiatus, I've gotten back into WoW, and it's still tons of fun.
Bad News: Second sequence started today. Different teacher than sequence one. Going to be the same teacher for the next three sequences. I really really hate her. A lot. Oh well. Hopefully it will get better (and hopefully the fact that she's a shitty teacher won't be too much to my detriment, considering we're going out of order for our sequences and starting with the final three courses, AKA the motherfucking hardest ones T_T). PHARMACOLOGY CAN KISS MY BUTT. Also, 100 Pages of reading for Thanksgiving break, yay!
OH WELL. How is everyone anyways?

Ten years, over 9,000 reports of it being true later, The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day. HOLY FUCKING CRAP. I had assumed it was dead, and would never happen. Hell, I stopped randomly searching imdb for All Saints Day, months ago. Needless to say, I'm gonna have to go see it. Srsly.
Boondock Saints II FOR REALZ THIS TIME! In case you didn't catch that. (I know only one or two people care about this, but my mind was totally blown)

Anatomy and Physiology, how you slay me. Mostly because I'm lazy, but that's beside the point. T_T BLORG.

In other news, the title of this post is totally unrelated to its contents, which coincidentally is totally unrelated to anything of any importance to any one.


Except people like me who enjoy reliving their childhood by lulzily watching things like...

Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. You know. I TOTALLY forgot how much campier it is than Xena. I always love Xena, but I always forget that I loved Hercules first! AND OH MY GOD DO I STILL LOVE IT OR WHAT? It's so great. Srsly. I'm gonna have to buy it the next time I have money. No really. Kevin Sorbo? You're awesome. Keep on rockin. We can all forget about Andromeda, okay? Well technically Andromeda wasn't that bad...just NOT AS GOOD AS HERCULES.

Oh my childhood. How I miss it. Also. I need moar icon space so I can have a Hercules icon. Maybe I can convince Michael to give me some money later.

I really wish it weren't so fucking dangerous to walk around here at night. And that there were stores open past 9 close by. Cause right now I really want some fucking saltines and sprite. My tummy is a sad panda, yo. But I am teh hungry pants. SALTINES AND SPRITE, HOW I CRAVE THEE. XD

Can't sleep. This is v. bad b/c I am reaaally tired, but every time I lay down to try to sleep I can't fucking do it. Also bad because I have to get up in four hours to go to an importante meeting at my new school. Then after that the plan was to go into the UW offices and drop out officially, but I might be too fucking tired to do it. I don't know what the deal is. Maybe I'm just stressed. Buh. I'm so tired. XD

In case anyone was curious about the state of my self control. It's totally non-existent right now. Granted, it cost me less than five dollars, but still. Wow. I just spend money on neopets merchandise. And what's worse? I didn't get it for the plushy, I bought it because it comes with a virtual code for a token for one of the games on neopets. XD. But the plushy is super cute, imho. AND I LOVE SUPER CUTE STUFF.

Disclaimer: No one on my flist will understand this post. I'm making it anyways, because I have to say it somewhere, and I can't do it in front of people who will understand for fear of being run out of the community XD.

So. Holy priests on WoW. Everyone says it's xomg, so fucking hard, nearly impossible, hell on Azerothian earth to level them holy. they tell everyone never to do it. They say it's virtually impossible. HELL, I actually even just saw someone say priests in GENERAL are difficult to level, NO MATTER THE SPEC.

Yeah.
Fucking.
Right.

I've been mystified about this for quite some time now, as, quite frankly, I have gotten at least 30 levels of every single class, and more for most, and priests are tied for first on the list of "easiest classes to level". Seriously. And I'll do you one better, I have never leveled a priest anything but holy. Ever. And I have five priests. No really. IT'S SO EASY. Best. Class. Evar. (The other first place is Death Knights because...well let's face it, here's the manual for playing a death knight:

Step 1: Make character.
Step 2: Apply face to keyboard.
Step 3: Roll face across keyboard.
Step 4: Reach level 80.)

ANYWAIS. So after this comment by this person saying that priests in general are oh SO very difficult to level, I noticed, "OH, this person just so HAPPENS to play a priest!" Which made me look back through my arsenal of "priests suck to level" comments, and HEY, WHAT DO YOU KNOW? MOST of those people (I'd wager a solid 90%) play priests!

So I've been forced to come to a conclusion. Which is this:

People who insist that priests are hard to level are simply stroking their epeens in a glorious display of ego masturbation, and in doing so are perpetuating a rumor that scares off hundreds of new players interested in leveling a priest each day.

NOT COOL I SAY. SO NOT COOL. PRIESTS ARE AWESOME. LET'S GET SOME LOVE GUYS. SO, I expect all of you to join my campaign for priest love, whether you like it or not. The end.

This has been a public service announcement.

PS- My death knight Niun is 75 now. She's pretty rockin. I can't WAIT to get my fuckin chopper once I get my last 30 points of engineering. UNF UNF. too bad it will probably cost me another 2000 gold

I WANT MOAR USERPIC SPACE. But alas. I have no money. ONE DAY. ONE DAAAAY.

SO. I had another bout of insomnia tonight (this one accompanied with some LOVELY and repetitive puking), and ended making another batch of icons. This time Cardcaptor Sakura. SO. In an effort to stave off the spam of icons to this journal (since it's looking like my sleep is in the toilet for good now, and making icons is the new way to get through it), I made an icon journal. XD. riotfox_icons. It's pretty boss. Like...tikis on the layout, boss. So yeah, pretty much, I need to start getting some sleep. The end.

BUT IT'S SO FUNNY XD.
( OH FINE, HERE IS A CUT )

ETA:
BECAUSE YOU CAN'T JUST DO ONE! AN HOMAGE TO MY SUPER SECRET YU YU HAKUSHO OTP, AND MY EVEN MOAR SUPER SECRET LOVE OF HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL (ALSO, THIS IS TOO COOL TO GO BEHIND A CUT!):



( AND LASTLY, DISCO BRINGS EVERYONE TOGETHER!!! EVEN JESUS AND SATAN!!!! )
WHO DOESN'T LOVE SHENANIGANS LIKE THIS?!

/END CAPS POST

ETA: OH SHIT I HAVE NO SELFCONTROL!

( NOT EVEN INKHEART IS SAFE! DANCE BRENDAN FRASER, DANCE! )

Started my new birth control pills today. They're the ones that give you four periods a year. I'm hoping that two things will occur (or not occur as it were). First off, I hope this doesn't make me a miserable hormonal wreck in the next few weeks (also, hope I don't gain a shit ton of weight). Additionally, I'm hoping this will help curb the mind-blowingly excruciating pain I experience every month during my period. XD Being able to walk during my period would be...so unbelievably fabulous. But hey, even if that doesn't happen, at least I'll only be completely incapacitated in pain, screaming bloody murder and taking twice the recommended 8 hour dose of extra strength pain killers every two hours just to breathe four times a year instead of twelve! Also, with this added benefit, I'll probably be more apt to remember to actually take my pills and won't have to worry about the effectiveness of my birth control method as much :P. Woo. Also, can we just talk about how awesome health insurance is? They were gonna cost me $200 but after they applied my insurance they were only $30! Thank you Derek for being a patent attorney and putting your step children on your AWESOME insurance. =D Anyways, that's all. Just felt like making a post, since Michael's at work and I'm bored, and when I sit around bored these days I tend to get sad. =)

Oh~ And thanks everyone for your awesome supportiveness about my NEW LIFE DIRECTION! XD It really means a lot to me =). THANKS FOR NOT JUDGING ME FOR DROPPING OUT OF COLLEGE, YO! Love y'all like a sex toy! *cough*

Because, I know you all care a lot about World of Warcraft, I know you will want to know that Blizzard release a buttload of new info about the new xpac at Blizzcon, and it looks SO FREAKING COOL. BUH. SERIOUSLY. CAPS ARE NECESSARY. though I'm not too psyched about the lore butchery going on, the trailer still made me giggle gleefully a bit. ZOMG I CAN'T WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR THOUGH. http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/cataclysm/ YOU CAN'T TELL ME THAT DOESN'T LOOK COOL. (Nevermind that none of you know what I'm talking about).

In other news, I'm going in on Monday to pay my registration fee for a Vet assistant/technician program at Pima Medical Institute. Which means that I am dropping out of UW for good, and forgoing the traditional education thing FINALLY. For serious. It's taken way too long. So yeah, this program will probably be really sucky and hard (and gross as fuck since surgery clinicals are required), but in the end I will come out already employed in a profession that is actually something that I would like to do (since I love animals so much). It should be pretty awesome and I should probably be the smartest person there considering I got the highest score my admissions counselor had ever seen on the preliminary testing. I AM smart when I'm motivated. *cough* So yeah, everyone wish me luck about everything going okay. It sure would suck to have gotten off my ass and done something about my future only for it to all not work out. XD. That is all.

So...it's possible that I was just putzing around on the internets, half lolzily looking at vet assistant and technician programs online, filled out a form asking for more info for shits and giggles (consequently, typoed my own name...spelled it Emilt). Then five minutes later (I shit you not, no more than five minutes), I got a phone call from this school and ended up being so flustered (cause I didn't think they'd call...thought I'd get a packet in the mail maybe, not a phone call) that I now I have an appointment to go into their office on the Seattle campus and talk to them tomorrow.

WHAT?!

>_>

Here's to my future? Maybe? I hope!

I guess I probably needed a kick in the ass like this to get me started on the whole quitting college to do something I actually care about deal anyways. Good thing that lady on the phone was such a fast talker. *cough*

(I'm not feeling too great about this whole thing though. I'm not so wonderful at first impressions. AS EVIDENCED BY EMILT.)

AWWWWRIIIIGHT!!

Comic Sans MS for the lulz. And I am obviously really easily amused. (Or maybe it's because I haven't gone to bed yet. Again.)

IF ANYONE CARES, THAT'S MY BANK ALT CACTUSJUICE IN HIS FANCY NEW GUILD TABBARD, YO.

I apologize to everyone.

You guys should probably go ahead and feed my adoptable. >_>


Feed Me!
Adopted from Valenth

XD. YOU KNOW YOU WANT TOOOOOOO. ♥

Can I just say, I had forgotten how freaking awesome Yu Yu Hakusho is? I'm still only on episode 80-something, but guh! I can't even... It's been so long, maybe my nostalgia is clouding my judgment, but I'm into it. >_>

In other news, I'll say this while I'm not feeling completely emo, or I'll forget. Thanks guys for being so supportive during this tough time for me. Even if I don't always reply to your comments, it doesn't mean I'm ignoring you, it just means it's hard for me to talk about anything right now. I love you guys. So plox don't think I am ignoring you. (Lawl, bad gamer speak.) Kisses to all. (WTF icon unrelated, I just like Koto. Need moar YYH icons though. For srs.)

I have so not been being productive at all lately. Since I got back from Texas, I have gotten approximately 40 levels on WoW, across three different characters, started three new rpgs on my xbox 360, played 5 games of Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 (that's the one with the beach volley ball and bikinis), watched the first 43 episodes of Yu Yu Hakusho again (and downloaded all of them, but I've only been at it for two days, so I haven't gotten too far), and also watched the entirety of one dumbass show known as True Blood, up to and including the latest episode. Oh, and I blew 50 bucks I don't really have treating myself and the boyfriend to dinner and a movie because I was depressed (and it wasn't even a movie either of us wanted to see, though it was still good).

Things I haven't done include: asking the financial aid office to review my private loan application now that I failed a class and can't get financial aid until next term, getting proof of my full time enrollment fall quarter so that I can continue having health insurance, paying of my credit card bill (which isn't due till the 18th, but the money is just sitting there in my account waiting and I'm still too lazy), gone to work at all (rescheduled three times now, though), been grocery shopping, or gone to the bank to sign all the papers I need to in order to get the ball rolling on my inheritance.

I'm pulling an all nighter tonight in the hopes of being awake early enough to go to the bank and take care of the inheritance part tomorrow, since I've been on the schedule of going to bed at 5 am and getting up around 3 or 4 pm (and by that late in the day I feel hopeless about pretty much anything that needs to get done).

Strangely enough, despite all my determination to be productive tomorrow (or today, rather), I'm already planning for the big failure, because in the end, all I feel like doing is sitting down for a nice big cry (which, oh yeah, I've done about 20 times already).

/whinybitch

I'm using my porn icon to make myself feel better. So there. >_>

Did I mention I miss my Dad? Because yeah, that sucked.

My dad just died. =( I'm pretty tired, but now I get to sit around with everyone talking about how sad we are and whatnot *eww*. Thanks for all the responses to my last post, I'm so too lazy to reply to them all. Anyways...I'm off to be bored witless by the family recollecting and whatnot. BLAH.

So Michael and I flew down to Texas on Thursday to see my dad, and he was not looking well, but things still seemed to be okay. Until today. I have been having trouble sleeping (as usual) so I was up until about 7 am this morning, and then about three hours after I went to bed (as my eyes were just drifting shut), Rayeanne (my step mom) came in to wake my sister and me up to tell us that they have to make an unplanned trip to the hospice house.

Turns out. His kidneys have failed, and since he is not taking treatment this time, that means his life span has gone down from 6 weeks to 10 months (depending on which story I would choose to believe) to a few days tops. NEAT RITE?

So anyways, I haven't slept at all in almost four days, my body is in agony from flying and driving and shit (seriously, I think my whole body must be covered in fucking icy hot cream), and oh yeah, my dad? He's gonna die within the week.

Michael and I were leaving tomorrow, but now we're staying for a couple more days (or rather, for an as yet undetermined number of days). And let me tell you, single handedly taking care of all of our travel rearrangements, as well as work, a few doctor's appointments, and a visit from my ex-step dad that I had really been looking forward to that I might now have to cancel, is not what I need on top of all this stress.

Oh, and one more note? I haven't had a real meal in over three days.

I can only keep running on nothing for so long. This is wearing me out. And oh yeah...that whole thing about my dad really fucking sucks. Color me drained.
