"Sometimes My Mind Plays Tricks on Me..."

[psalm_onethirtyone]

Right, back to the usual business.

Someone tried to kill me at the library to-day by looking at me! That's never happened before, and it's an interesting experience.

I am prepared for the weekend. >_> I got out a pile of books, some ridiculously bad films, made sure I have music so I can clean the kitchen, got a baking assignment due Sunday, am going to ask Amy out for Sunday afternoon, if possible (platonic date! she needs to get out, and I want to get her out). Know that the Newport Arts Thingy is Saturday afternoon. I shall attempt to alleviate my spare lame time. ^_^!

I met the most. gorgeous. girl to-day. Her name is Leodi, and she's a painter. I informed her of her gorgeousness, because people need to be told things like that. (On a different note, there is a ridiculously cute geek!boy in my chem class. I am considering begging him for help, because I am STILL FAILING CHEM. I select him only because I am terrified of the girl, and the other boy is our neighbour and not my favourite person in the world. besides, geek!boy has already got ALL HIS IONS MEMORISED OMG AHHHHH. >_> The only one I know is permanganate.)

Has anybody else read the Miss Spider book? The one with the big huge coloured illustrations about the spider who wants to have a tea party, but all the bugs are afraid of her? It's a counting book. Yes, no? SHE GOT MARRIED. I found the picture book to-day. To a teeny little spider with an acorn hat. His name is Holley. ...I do not care what is going on in the celebrity world, but in the world of children's picture books--!

Also, Mum and I went shopping for new and exciting foodstuffs to-day. I have lots of interesting things to eat. ^__^ That makes me happy. I should be all right this weekend. Aaaaaaaaand I have a new cereal with five grams of fiber! :D And raisins. That may be the best thing ever.

That is all. ^___^

People try to kill me by looking at me all the time. It hasn't worked yet...!

Ask geek!boy to help you~! I bet he'd go "omggirl!" and do anything you asked. [/blatant stereotyping]

I told you that you should go grocery shopping. New and exciting footstuffs are always good. :D :D :D Yay!

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

-_- I shall come and towel them...! It's one of my first times, so I was surprised. I can't remember what I did anymore, either...! I remember that the glare was justified, but I can't remember what I did.

You think so? *giggles* I kind of want to, though, because akfalskjd how is he doing that? He is awesome at chem--!

I know. And I told Delores that you said I should do that and she said '...that's a really good idea. Do that'. So then we went shopping. ^___^ I have rice cakes and sandwich makings and my very own block of toxin-inbued orange cheddar (which is the only kind of cheese I liiiike), and lima beans and grapes and flavoured water that doesn't have aspartame, and cereal with fiber and oatmeal bars and green beans and corn and cans of soup that I'm not afraid of, and chickpeas and carrots and canteloup and many good things. ^__________^

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

Usually they don't know they're doing it...? Perhaps we have different definitions of looks that kill. But at any rate, I'm sure there's very little that could warrant a death glare at a library (although I thought you weren't going in this week?).

I think so...! I'm sure it couldn't hurt to ask, at any rate. Tell him you are really amazed at his super!chem!knowledge.

Really? ^____^ I win. I so win. And eeee, food. I adore rice cakes-- my family always thought that was strange. I like the kind that are just a little bit caramel flavoured. They are crunchy and satisfying. Also, also, also, lima beans and chickpeas are love. Leguuuumes.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

That's better. They may escape the wrath of Soujin. --I did something. OH. OH. I REMEMBER. She was looking at new fiction while I was shelving, and I kept having to leeeeeean over her to shelve Ms, and she was totally glaring, because I am supposed to skip sections where there are patrons. So yes. I knew it was justified. XD (--I didn't do anything all week, and I was going out of my mind, and besides I didn't end up doing much shelving, I was at the desk or sitting and reading most of the time, and I wore sensible shoes, and my foot hadn't been hurting earlier, so I thought it would be okay. ^_^)

I shall. Maybe he will tell me how to memorise sulfate and sulfite and tell them apart.

You win liek whoa, Ladymine...! --I TOTALLY GOT THE CARAMEL KIND. Also the cinnamon-apple kind, but I know I got some caramel-flavoured, too. --I love legumes. ^____^ Protein! Protein that doesn't spoil if you have to wait a while before you get around to it, noo less.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

Oh, good. I'll let you know if they start to do it on purpose. --*snicker* She could have moved out of the way! (--well--it didn't start to hurt or drain or anything, did it?)

If that does not work, can you ask the teacher for an individual meeting or something?

Yay. ^^ --THOSE ARE MY FAVOURITE. They are one of my favourite snack foods, actually. Along with ickle meringue cookies. When by snack foods I mean dessert foods, because I don't eat snacks. --Me tooooo. Pinto beans! Navy beans--I have a weakness for baked beans. Both the American and the UK kind. >____>

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Okay. And then I'll attack them. --No, no, I was totally in her way. ^^;;;; I think I was annoyed because I had just been shelf-reading for copies, which is possibly the most tedious occupation imagineable. ^^;;;;;squared. (No, no, it really didn't. In fact, Mum says it's doing really well. It's got all this healthy red tissue! ^__^)

V. unlikely, but maybe I could e-mail her. She's a teeny bit scary. On the other hand, I find most people a teeny bit scary. But--ngg. She gave us her e-mail address, though, so maybe I should.

^____^! ♥ --Eeeeeee, I want to try them now. ^___^ They look pretty. *tickles* Eh, rice cakes count as snack food. Meringue cookies don't, I agree, but rice cakes do...! --Mmmm. Pinto beans are good. ^________^ I don't like baked beans at all, but I will willingly give my birthright for a nice bowl of warm chickpeas.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

All right! -- Pfft. She should have moved. When people are obviously trying to work around me, I move. (Then I suppose you can be excused, just this once. Last time it was probably just upset from being forced to go to work the day before.)

Well, she's a teacher and teachers are usually prepared to offer some sort of help. If she can't tutor you, maybe she could point you in the right direction. If she gave you her email address, she's not going to be mad at you for asking.

They're good...! And maybe they count, but when I eat them, it's for dessert. Dessert is usually a popsicle. --UK baked beans are awful and addicting like to be eaten on toast. It sounds horrid, but it is not. We don't have legumes much at home, though, because mom can't eat them. But I buy little cans of chick peas and put them cold on salad instead of salad dressing.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

>:D --Yes, well. That's because you're nice and you're giving up your right of way. (That's what I was thinking...! But I just rode around in the car all Thursday this week, so.)

Yees. Okay, confession time. I find her method of explaining things rilly, rilly confusing. To the point where I generally come home, find Mum, and go WHAT DID SHE TELL ME THIS TIME?. So--I'm worried that e-mailing her will just leave me more ridiculously confused.

Yes, well, that just means you make good desser choices. ^_^! Diet whatsis popsicles, by any chance? --Heee. It does sound rather awful. I have never seen them...! Ohh, that's too bad. But yes! They make wonderful salad toppings.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

--She should have been nice like me, obviously! (XD It appears to have worked.)

Hm. Well, in that case, there's always geek!boy. But just remember that if you email her and you still don't understand... that doesn't mean that you can't ask anyone else, you know.

Or have bad dessert options. Dad gets these little frozen eclairs and he usually eats about 6 of them. Which makes me go '...' and eat a popsicle. :D Sometimes they're diet soda thingies, because Mom can eat those too, but more often they are creamsicles. --But it's good...! Horrifying so. It's breakfast food. ^___^ Leguuuumes.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

--I know, I know. I wish she had been you. (Indeed! ^_________^)

I JUST OPENED MY TEST AND I AM GOING TO FAIL OH MY GOD OH MY GOD SINCE I'VE OPENED IT I'M NOT ALLOWED TO LOOK AT ANY RESOURCES ANY MORE, I JUST HAVE TO FILL IT OUT, AND I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING AND I AM TOTALLY BLANKED ON ACETATE AND I AM GOING TO DIE OH GOD. ;__________________________________; I had a minor attack of hyperventilating at the time. Now I am just trying to figure out how to kill myself before Monday.

Oh, good Lord. >_> Waen does that, too, with other things. Like Boston Cream Cakes. Ooh, creamsicles sound nice. What are they? --You're welcome to them. XD I love legumes.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

--Well, that would have been nice!

WAIT. SO YOUR TESTS OPERATE ON THE HONOUR SYSTEM? XD OH DEAR. I'm sure you'll be fine. You'll have other oppurtunities to pull up your grade, too, just in case things do not go as well as you'd like.

He has those eclairs and also really gross frozen cheesecake. At least, I suppose, I am not tempted by them. And creamsicles are yummy, that's what they are! They are orange (or raspberry) popsicles with vanilla ice ceam inside.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Yes, it would!

YES. YES. IN FACT, MUM HAS TO SIGN THEM AND SWEAR THAT I DID NOT LOOK AT ANYTHING. I AM SO DEAD. ;____________________________; I'm prepared to expect the worst in everything.

Eeww. Frozen cheesecake sounds revolting. Go with the ricecakes or the creamsicles. They sound good. ^__^

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

Maybe next time? :D

WEIRD. THAT'S SO-- WEIRD. I BET LOTS OF PEOPLE LOOK ANYWAY. It'll be a good excuse to talk to geek!boy. "So how did you do on that test?" "I--" "I KNOW, I DID TERRIBLE TOO."

It iiiis. It's nasty. I prefer my dessert. ^^ Sometimes I get blueberries instead. --You should try them! :D

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

All right. XD

I PUT IT AWAY AND STUDIED FOR AN HOUR THIS MORNING AND THEN DID IT AGAIN AND I THINK I DID OKAY EXCEPT THAT SHE TOTALLY INTRODUCED MATERIAL WE DIDN'T COVER IN CLASS AND NOW I AM PANICKING AGAIN. MAYBE IT WAS FROM THE CLASS I MISSED. BUT SHE DIDN'T TELL ME THERE WAS ANYTHING I NEEDED TO KNOW FROM THAT CLASS! IN FACT, SHE TOLD ME THERE WASN'T ANYTHING I NEEDED TO KNOW. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. ...^__^ Good point. And he'll be all, '...it was rilly easy'.

I can see why! Ooh, blueberries. I get frozen grapes. --I should, obviously.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

WELL, WILL SHE GO OVER THE EXAM AT ALL? ...and that, my dear, is when you attack. :D

I don't like grapes. :D --You should! Get them when you go to the store next, because they are marvellous. They are Popsicle brand.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

NO, SHE DIDN'T. ...I don't know how to talk to boys!

I love them. Lovelovelove. --Oooh. They sound shinyyy.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

STUPID TEACHER. ...Boys are people too, you know. XD I like them. Lots of my friends are boys.

They're ewwww. --They are!

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

SHE'S A GOOD TEACHER, I THINK. I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HER AT ALL. ...They are not people. They're completely weird and scary. I don't even know any boys. at all. none.

You feel that way about raisins, too. I don't trust you.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T GO OVER THINGS OBVIOUSLY. XD ...They are too people! They make a whole lot more sense than girls, in general.

Yes, well, only because dried grapes are not any better.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

YES, I GUESS SO! ...Yes, well, I don't know any, so I can't say. I only know my cousin, who is so immature he frightens me.

XD I didn't even realise that.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

MAKE HER. ...Meet some! :D Most of my best friends have been male, actually. ^^ When I was little and the other girls were playing hopscotch and double-dutch, the boys and I played 'monsters,' which meant that we pretended to be monsters and chased eachother around. ... ...we also had sword-fights with sticks of bamboo. and played chess.

*wins!*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I CAN'T. ...Maaaaan. When I was little I didn't have any friends at all. XD How do you do that? It's nifty.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

TRY HARDER. I don't know? Find a stick of bamboo and hit them till they'll play with you.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I'M SORRY. ;___; ...You are so awesome. XD I'll try that...!

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

Good..! Let me know how it works. :D

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Will do, will do.

[mhari.livejournal.com]

Legumes!

/gratuitous spam

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

...I am dumb. I just looked at that and went "Oh, cute! It looks like something by Ursulav" ...and then I actually bothered to poke about the site. XD

[mhari.livejournal.com]

*dies*

I have recently discovered the joys of ursulav.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

LEGUMES OMG. ^______________^

[whyless.livejournal.com]

Oh--! I've read that book. How delightful for Miss Spider. ♥

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Isn't it? ^_^ I like that. It was a surprise, because it's been so long since I read the book at all, but--it was a gorgeous wedding.

[tomecatti.livejournal.com]

Oh, i vaguely remember the spider lady...! There was something about her that weirded me out. Spiders aren't supposed to have faces. But i'm glad for her that she got married ^.^ I'll bet Holley a charming spider gent. But a Thisbean twist would've been cooler: He should be a fly!

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

She had a pointy nose. That was always slightly disturbing. ^_^ A huge pointy nose. But yes. He was so teeny! I wonder if that's--um--um. naturally correct? anatomically correct? I have no idea whether male spiders are supposed to be smaller than the females. ...That is essentially what my mum said. XD You frighten me.

[tomecatti.livejournal.com]

It was a conic nose, too, wasn't it? That's creepy. You know, in several species of spider, particularly the black widow, After the... consumation of her marriage to the smaller and weaker male, she kills and eats him. Isn't she delicious? And i hope he was... If i may impart a piece of my personal philosophy, i believe that man has ruled this world as a demented bumbling child king long enough! And as his empire crumbles, my precious black widow will rise, as his most fitting successor!

... There's absolutely no reason for you to be frightened of me and my impressions of vincent price at all.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Yes! Exactly. ...I know this! ^_^ And love it. Black widow spiders remind me of Cleopatra, sort of. --*giggles and flails*

[burnishedthrone.livejournal.com]

...

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

...Nothing personal. I just meant the getting what you want out of the male spiders and then EATING THEM part, I guess.

...

I think you're mad hot!

[burnishedthrone.livejournal.com]

...

...

Thanks.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

And gorgeous. Did I mention gorgeous? And totally just amazing.

[tomecatti.livejournal.com]

They do have a certain eerie grace in common, don't they? Besides the whole "getting what [they] want out of the male spiders and then EATING THEM part, I guess." thing.

... I used to be deathly afraid of Black Widow spiders.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Yes! I think so, at least.

^__^ I still am.

[tomecatti.livejournal.com]

Well, there's a difference between "deathly afraid" and "seriously terrified", isn't there...? I'm still the latter, at least.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Seriously terrified, then, fine. ^_^

[karla-yonit.livejournal.com]

I READ THAT BOOK! :) It's cuuuuuute. I think I read all of them. Picture books yay. Also, chem. I don't know which/how many ions you have to study, but do you have reference tables (http://www.nysedregents.org/testing/reftable/reftable.html) to help you out with memorizing? They're from the NYS Regents, which makes them stupid because the Regents is stupid, but they're useful for things like ions. The ions are on the first page. Hope it helps. *squishes*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Awww. ^____^ I love picture books. They are absolutely the best literature out there. --Ooo. Thank you very much!

[tiamatschild.livejournal.com]

Eeeee! Spider romance! And interesting fun things to eat are good.
