In other news, I have google wave invites. Anyone want one? :)

So I went to McKinley today and got a diagnosis of probable H1N1, as apparently that's the only flu going around at the moment. Whoo. I'm confined to home for at least another day, or 24 hrs after I last have a fever. I've been feeling a bit better though, which is nice. The doctor gave me some prednisone for my asthma, too, which confuses me because prednisone is an immunosuppressant, and I kind of need my immune system right now, yo! Haha, but it has been helping and I can breathe better, so no complaining, I suppose.

I was sad to have missed Jennifer's thing tonight though. Ah well, better that I miss it than give everyone swine flu. lol.

Take care of yourselves, people! <3 I don't want to hear that anyone else is getting sick! It's no fun, trust me.

Though really, wouldn't angiology be like, the study of blood vessels or something? O.o

Oh, as an aside, Nathan Fillion is brilliant. Have you guys seen the fan-made Green Lantern trailer?

It's really well done. Too bad he isn't in the real thing. :( Oh Captain Tightpants. xD

And Richard Hammond is also a brilliant man. I'm in the middle of his memoir, On the Edge, and it is pretty darn good. Also, the other two of the Top Gear trio are awesome, too. <3 <3

I fail at resisting these silly meme things. I hold out for a while and then succumb. Too tempting. haha.

( And here be the meme )
So that was fun. I guess. Dodedo.

I have no clue why I'm posting so much today.

Ok.
I just realized that this is the last week that RENT's national tour will be in chicago. Damn me for not remembering this during spring break! But the point is, now that RENT is closed on broadway, this is our last chance. EVAR. (or... for another 30 years before they come up with a revival maybe?)

So yeah. RENT. With some of the OBC! Adam Pascal. Anthony Rapp. :O
Chicago. Next weekend. I'm seriously considering going, if I can find someone to come with. Unfortunately, tickets are expensive (anywhere between 25 bucks in the waaaaaay back, to almost 80 in the Orch.) So yeah.

GAH. *dead*

Oh man. So Michelle (and everyone else) remember this horrid example of purple prose?

Well. Now I present to you the first page, in video format. (courtesy of kayay)


WIN. WIN. WIN.

I CAN NOT RESIST.

Haha.

Random as hell, but I was reading the news, and saw this:


Does pat quinn's face remind anyone else of this?


Or am I just retarded? lol


In other news, diff eq test was easy :) Finished in like, 20 minutes. lol yay

I'm home.

Oh, Tim Burton. What have you done??

Hobbit. Movie. 2010.

That's RIGHT.

I'm totally incapable of focusing this week. I've written half an essay and done 2 math problems tonight. Congrats, Angie.

On the other hand, I've completely fallen in love with Mano Felciano. That man. His voice! I definitely prefer Toby as a teenager as compared to a little boy. Even if Ed Sanders is incredibly adorable and has a great voice. Neil Patrick Harris' Tobias is excellent too. He has the crazy accent and this incredibly amazing ability to convey a shitload of feeling in a short song. Lovelovelove. But Mano is made of win.

And bald!Sweeney totally trumps CruellaDeVil!Sweeney. Sorry Johnny, but tis true. Michael Cerveris, in general, is absolutely amazing. Hedwig and the Angry Inch? XD

So yeah, I cannot wait for Sweeney Todd. Even if Johnny's singing isn't wonderful. At least he puts a lot of emotion into his rendition, eh? And Helena Bonham Carter can actually sing really well. :D I wanna hear Alan Rickman sing. Like whoa.

Um, I'm done rambling now. :)

Question, though. Help me get into college? Give me five words that describe me? Gah.

SNOW!  

That's all. Thanks. :D

I'm bored, so ( Disney princess meme )

But shit, I have so much stuff I need to do this weekend, and it sucks. I'm screwed for anatphys. I'm screwed for JLPT.

Shiiiiit.

Dear Santa... Dear Santa, This year I've been busy! In August I gave crimsoncourt a wet willie, then I took it back (-5 points). In December I invaded Iraq, broke it, and couldn't glue it back together before Mom got home (-1012 points). Last week I bought porn for monaliisa (-10 points). Last Thursday I committed genocide... Sorry about that, darkfire_blade (-5000 points). In March I ruled Canada as a kind and benevolent dictator (700 points). Overall, I've been naughty (-5327 points). For Christmas I deserve a spanking! Sincerely, zylaxidia

Write your letter to Santa! Enter your LJ username:

Um. I think I win as queen of badness. Sheesh, I've been a terrible little girl this year. O.O
Aliisa, you know you loved the porn.

I feel like I'm in the doooolllllddrrrrruuuuumms.

If you know what I mean.

And we're getting shit-all done in english. Whoopdedo. :)

So, how are you supposed to react to dead people? Tell me quick, because I still don't know how I feel about it.

Cadaver lab.

Touching preserved bodies is very weird.

I hate toes. Ew.

I still smell like preservatives. I've taken a shower and washed my hands countless times and used lots and lots of happy-smelling lotion. Still smelly. Ugh.

I don't know I didn't really have any problem with it, except maybe the smell which is still making me squirm a bit. But still, they were living people five years ago or whatever. And I'm standing there poking around and moving his intestines around so I can get a better look at his Psoas Major and Tensor Fasciae Latae. It's not like I haven't seen dead people before. But a room of body bags and florescent lights and cut up muscles and the smell... I don't know. I'm not giving my body to science. Organs, sure. Not this. Meh.

I shall contemplate.

wefeelfine.org

Holy cow.

But it's kinda weird, you know. How often do you actually hear someone say aloud, "I feel..."

I mean, it's either "I am (insert adjective here)" or "I think..." People don't like to talk about feelings too much. Huh. That's interesting.

I'm tired. I'm bored. I'm avoiding homework. I think I have a headache coming on. I'm proving my point and not using the word 'feel.' Humdedum.
