Happy belated Year of the Monkey!

Although I'm not really that belated... i celebrated it and all, just not on the blog... I'll try to scan the kawaii little card I made just for the occasion~ Til then, here's Mouse-chan's pic of it.

Other than that one horrid problem that I was sure I got wrong but was told I got right, the Calculus test sucked. The end.

For all those who wish to know, L-chan's wishes for her funeral are: to be cremated to pixie dust for her survivors to fling over chibies and declare that Laura *loves* them. The funeral is going to be during school so the bouncer can happily turn away all the fake-haired-and-breasted, cell-phone-and-water-bottle-wielding bitchpreps (tm) who only came so they could get out of school anyway. In fact, she might even send invitations. "You're invited to Laura's funeral!" And if her wishes aren?t catered to, she will be reincarnated as Lilith and wreak havoc on the blissfully ignorant Those-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named parading in the forms of innocent little teenage American girls.

Ashley, you are the only person I know with internet access who *chooses* to write letters. Randomly. And, like, _nice_ letters. With nice things in them. With pretty fonts and pics and all. It made me feel very special~ thanks!! ^_____^

Lately I?ve been disgustingly productive... it's making my procrastinating side cringe.

On the other hand, it could be a *good* thing.

Speaking of being overachieving, Corky dearie, it'll all be okay... really it will. Just think, we've only got four months, give or take a bit, and then we're through! And in college you won't be the Student Council President, and there won't be nearly as many nagging bitches, and if there are it'll be ok because they almost always wont be within hearing range? We?ll ignore the remarkable... irony? ignorant bliss?... of that statement, cuz it[s only gonna get worse... anyway, my point is, no rain means no rainbows, right?

In other news! Was looking up stuff for biology and stumbled across some weirdass definitions by people who claim to be scientists. Definitions of psychological terms, and honest-to-gods, ppls, these are real. Oh, and I?ve grouped them in order of relevance rather than alphabetical.

BENIGN IMAGINARY PLAYMATE: A Mental Entity (ME) made by imagination by the Emotional Self, for companionship and advice. It can exist within or outside of the individual who made it. It can be destroyed by its creator as by act of will. It is fueled by human emotions, such as loneliness.
IMAGINARY MALIGNANT PLAYMATE: A Mental Entity (ME) created by the imagination of the Emotional Self, fueled by raw emotions, such as anger or revenge. It can reside either within or outside of the human who made it. It can be destroyed by the one who made it by an act of will.

While we are on the subject of ridiculous use of taxpayer money, here is someone who is doing it on their own initiative - i.e. no ludicrous amount of gov't funding - and is actually coming up with useful and, to an astonishing amount of Americans, surprising information.
Frightening, mayhap... surprising... no.

And the best of all... this is dedicated to all of us who have been called upon to 'fix' their friend's mac... and that is singular 'friend,' because after the first one, we all steer clear.
It takes a while, but please... let it play through.

You know, I always thought that Mac Apple looked something like the old Sunday school pics of the Unidentified Fruit that Eve took a chunk out of. Coincidence? I think not.
