Lyrical...

I know, I know, posting random song lyrics is, like (liek, lol), the cardinal sin of journaling...that's why these aren't random. At least in my mind they have meaning. Google for FULL lyrics, I picked and chose the bits I wanted. All emphasis mine. Speculations and comments wanted, needed.

~*~ Evanecsence, "My Immortal"
Because your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
*
But you still have all of me
You used to captivate me
*
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
*
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

~*~ Duran Duran, "Want You More!"
Whatever I'm thinking of
You always seem to know
*
There's always something to keep me guessing
What if it's real, what if you're just faking?
What if you knew you could?
What if you get off on manipulating?
Why does it feel so good?
Drivin' the car turn up the sound
*
And it only gets more serious
What could you be thinking of?
You never let it show
'Cause you give me just enough
There's always something
You keep it coming
What if it's real, what if you're just faking?
What if you knew you could?
What if you get off on manipulating?
Why does it feel so good?
Why do I want you more? Why do I want you? Why do I feel so torn?
Why do I want you more? Why do I want you?
Why do I want you more?
*
Just keep it coming

~*~ Duran Duran, "Nice"
And it hurts me to think
That you might never know
That I've got this thing about you
In case you don't understand
There's something else I meant to tell you
There is nothing better
Than being with you
And I'm feeling so nice
There is nowhere better
Than here with you
And it's feeling so nice
*
I got a lot to lose
But everything to gain
When I really think about it
You haven't got a clue
It's all that I can do to hide it
There is nothing better
Than being with you
*
Will it hurt as much being true?
I might as well be brave and tell 'ya

killing time, really...

The auction was interesting last night--the power went out about an hour and a half in, so we all ended up going home. (It was only out a few seconds, but our tower took a direct lightning hit and we had no more internet with which to WORK the auction, so we decided to call it a night and come back tonight.)

Free pizza tonight! WOOT!

The other night I was working on something for school (I don't even remember what) and I was typing "samples" and typo'd it as "smaples." This amused me. If I hated Canadians I would start using that as an insult in a punnish sort of reference to their flag--"those smaples!" would mean, more or less, "those d**n Canadians!" But of course, the snag is that I <3 Canadians. *huggles Kat and Hobbity*

Witness my mad MS Paint skillz! I made Shelly an avatar! But since she, like, never reads this anymore, and since her heart races for a different Josh these days (her RL boyfriend) I thought I'd post this in case some other Josh Holloway fan stumbles through.

Someone who is better at making avvys and can animate them should make one that starts out: "Fly Oceanic!" then shows the Oceanic logo, then says, "Earn free HEAD trips!" then shows a bunch of people running from various things, then ends with the Lost logo. Lol.

I made a PowerPoint for Fine Arts: Visual! Go me! Sadly, you know where I learned to USE MS PowerPoint? ...from watching Shelly edit her "Top 15 Guys" list. XD But hey, it paid off!

Poor, poor Van Gogh. (I researched him as part of this PowerPoint.) He was a genius (I have Starry Night as my email background ^_^) and yet he had such a sad life, I really just want to hug him and tell him it'll be okay. (Yeah, okay, I know he's dead. But you know what I mean.) I want to adopt him. (I'm seriously thinking of starting a list of people I have adopted--Locke, Van Gogh...)

I still hate that class. Mrs. Bailey: "Half of life is following directions, have you noticed that?" AARRRRRRRGH. So narrow-minded! So disorganized! *screams*

Okay. Okay. Accentuate the positive. Random quotes time!

• "These are the three mantras of Biology: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, there are no T's in RNA, and Dry is king." --Dr. Dry, in lecture one day
• "She sells seashells on eBay!" --Nico
• "Luge is the only sport where the winner is called the luger..." --Peter (a lab partner) during a "meeting" where we "worked on our presentation"

So anyway. Everyone on the planet (writers especially) should read Eats, Shoots, and Leaves. Even I actually got more picky about punctuation since reading it. ^_^ Like the sign hanging in every classroom at school:

NO
Food or Drink
Allowed in
this Room.
Absolutely
NO
Exceptions.

(Of course it's centered IRL.) What's with the capitalizations? It's a Capitalizer Run Amok! Gack!

You know you're obsessed with LotR when...you see a car labeled "LTZ" and the first thing that you think is: "Lurtz!" XD

I have to be at the auction in 20, so this randomness fit is over. Thank you for listening.

FREE PIZZA!
