| Take A Walk Around The Writer's Block |

Please excuse this randomness from my writer side, I'm just stuck with a mean case of writer's block and I really want to get over it. I miss writing for fun. This is a mini-commentary I sat down and wrote in hopes of getting back into gear.
Don't you just hate it when you sit down to think and write and nothing comes out? You have all these ideas floating around in your head, but the words just can't get from your brain to your fingers. All stories come to a halt with the giant blank space that sits in the forefront of your mind once you actually decide that you want to write. Never mind when you don't feel like writing. Actually, do mind it, because that's when your creativity is going to sneak up on you. I'm not suggesting you drop everything you're doing that second to write, but at least write a note down, or something. Often times I'll be doing something routine, such as vacuuming the house, and listening to music, and certain lyrics will just jump out at me from nowhere and this giant plot bunny just decides to sit on me and not leave me alone. And it's not a cute, fluffy, nice plot bunny. It's a large and heavy stubborn one that won't move unless you give it what it wants. Haha, whoever thought of comparing story ideas to rabbits, anyway?
But seriously, it seems that whenever I want to write, I can't lately. One reason that most of my conversations tend to be incredibly far-fetched sometimes and random is because that is the result of all my creativity bottling up until I can't take it anymore, and it finds an outlet whether I want it to or not.
The conclusion I came to was that I need to write something short and sweet about something, about anything at all. The problem? I can't think of anything. Sad, I know. I think I just need a random idea thrown out there that I can go off. For example, once when I was chatting with Erin, she asked me to tell her a story. I asked her what it should be about, and she said, of all things, a nail file. And that is how Melvin the nail file was born. *laughs* Any ideas? It can be as random as a penguin getting stranded in the desert with a pair of stilts and a paintball gun if you want. Hmm... |

So...I'm back in Modesto, but the funny thing is I haven't been at home much all week. Monday was dentist appointments in Sacramento, Tuesday was a day trip with my Flying Mango crewmates to Santa Cruz (which was SO much fun, I ended up with a free Smart Car shirt, a Harry Potter action figure, and the Becoming Jane soundtrack...hm-hm-hm-huh?), Wednesday was a trip to the DMV with my brother/ picking up my Aussie friend Janet from the train station, Thursday was doctor's appointments/ showing my friend around town (of course involving introducing her to In N' Out), Friday was moving my brother into UC Merced (which has a sweet campus by the way, it makes my school look bad) and then hanging out with my friend more as well as seeing The Nanny Diaries which was pretty funny, followed by shopping at Wal-Mart of all places, then Saturday was going to Granite Bay to hang out with my dad's side of the family. Today was the first day I was really home a lot. Ew, that was a gross run-on sentence just then. Oh well. Next week should be a little less busy, there are a couple things I have to take care of and a couple people I'm supposed to hang out with. If you want to hang out, just drop me a line.
I do have a question, though. Imagine that there really was a monster that lived in the lake at Calvin Crest. What would he do, do you think? I don't think he would be an evil monster, just a misunderstood one. And his name would be Frama (a frog-llama). Just trying to gather ideas for the story I'm writing for Amy, I think it's a great and fun idea. How amusing would that be if a little kid's book was in the store by me, about the monster that lived in the lake? Maybe a cute little life lesson thrown in there so there would be a point to the book. You have no idea how much fun I would have if I were a children's author. Really, the teacher thing is because writers get sucky pay if they don't make it big, haha. |

Hi, remember me? The one who sucks at updating her blog? Well, I'm back to tell you I'm leaving. Isn't that considerate of me, haha. I'm going to be working at Calvin Crest again this summer, I'm the Crestview store clerk, huzzah! It's going to be fun times on the office team this summer. It's going to be really really weird not being in the kitchen, I'm going to have to keep from walking in the kitchen door and trying to go to work in there, heh. I think I'll still help with dishes from time to time, because you can take the staffer out of the kitch, but you can't take the kitch out of the staffer. Wow that was cliche, oh well, that's just me. I'm so excited to be working there again! I really missed it last summer, though I think the experience with counselling was good for me. Anyway, I'll be gone from Saturday (June 9th) to Sunday, August 19th. I may come on and post randomly in between, but no guarantees. To be continued when I get back!
For now, I must finish packing! *scampers off singing* Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to camp I go... |

Yay for not blogging consistently! I win, haha. I've decided that I really love the Colbert Report. It's just that amusing. And you learn things from it too! Tonight, for instance, I learned that zebras were never domesticated by African cultures for a very good reason. They're mean suckers. If you get too close to them, they'll bite you. And if that's not bad enough, they'll bite you and not let go until you're dead. Yikes...zebras, who knew? Apparently they're the worst animals in zoos.
So, sushi...it ended up being that the original sushi place was closed for the day for renovations. So then we went to Modesto and looked for a place that we thought was one place and it turned out to be on the other side of town. After many times of turning around and going out of the way, we found the sushi place...but it didn't open until 5, and it was 4. We decided to hang out at Yesterday's Books for an hour and kill time, then went for sushi. The amusing thing is that I discovered that I really like eel (in the tiger rolls). I happen to be freaked out by live eels due to one swimming fast out of a hole in an aquarium tank and scaring me when I was little, so me liking to eat them is kind of funny. Oh, the irony. Maybe it's a revenge thing, haha.
The wedding yesterday was beautiful, it was a different kind of feeling watching two of my friends get married (also unbelievably cute, they make a great couple) and thinking "uh oh...that means I'm at an age where I could get married...ahh!" *hides* lol. It was really good though, it was outside, a little windy, but good, and I got to see some Calvin Crest people that I've worked with and will work with this summer. Oh, this summer! I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it! *laughs* I think I'll end this now and get back to studying before I say anything else that's completely nerdy.
P.S. The PotC 3 soundtrack comes out tomorrow!!! And we're going to see the movie at 8pm on Thursday! And dress up! |

Gas is now $3.37 a gallon (at the cheaper gas station) here. I'm sure it's more expensive in SoCal. Holy. Crap. I am so glad I won't be driving much this summer. Why are hybrids so dang expensive? At least we know people will start buying more efficient cars now. Haha, my dad told me the other day that they should start calling Hummers "Bummers" instead because of how much it costs to fill them up nowadays.
Yesterday was the children's musical at church, and our organist introduced the musical by playing "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" and then going into "Hakuna Matata". It was amazing, and probably the only time those two songs will be played consecutively in church, or in church at all. I'm glad I was there to witness such an historic event, lol.
Gah, I called for jury duty at 5, it was busy all 7 times I called, so I tried again at 6. The automated voice told me to call tomorrow at noon, in the middle of class, so I have to leave class to call the stupid thing. *le sigh* Please please please please please let them tell me I don't have to report...
I got something amazingly fun in the mail on Friday...*sings to herself* Boys and girls of every age, would you like to see something strange? Come with us and you will see, this our town of Halloween...ooh and I FINALLY found the Hook soundtrack! For nine bucks! I've been asking for it for Christmases and birthdays for forever and it's impossible to find, and I got one of four copies in stock. It's glorious.
*yawns* It's sleepy time for me, but I'll close this with: Spiderman 3 was AWESOME. Definitely better than 2 and better dialogue, I thought. Venom-affected Spiderman is definitely uh, amusing, so say the least. |

Today, Erin and I discovered that Target is useless if you want something decent to drink. Wine is nasty. They had a cocktail mixer thing to have with vodka, but no vodka, what's up with that? I haven't tried the stuff yet. Haha, this makes me sound like a drink a lot, which, I don't. But the occasion called for a drink, and alas, we had to settle on green tea soda things. Which were still good. And we learned that going to the store hungry isn't the best thing in the world, lol. But then there was Dreamgirls (it finally came out on video), and I was reminded of how much I love that movie. Just a great quality movie. Good music, good plot, good actors, good movie. Amazing singing! Jennifer Hudson is fantastic. I definitely sought out the soundtrack after seeing it in the theater.
I really like the new Switchfoot album, Oh, Gravity! This song in particular:
This one's about a dream
I had last night
How an old man tracked me home
And stepped inside
Put his foot inside the door
And gave a crooked smile
Something in his eyes
Something in his laugh
Something in his voice
That made my skin crawl off
Said I've seen you here before
I know your name
How you could have your pick
Of pretty things
You could have it all
Everything at once
Everything you've seen
Everything you'll need
Everything you've ever had in fantasies
You have one life
You have one life
One life left to lead
You have one life
You have one life
One life left to lead
I woke up from my dream
As a golden man
The Girl I've never seen
With Golden skin
I jump up to my feet
She asked me what was wrong
I began to scream
I don't think this is me
Is this just a dream?
Or really happening, happening
You have one life
You have one life
One life left to lead
You have one life
You have one life
One life left to lead
What direction
What direction
I'm spinning up
I'm spinning up
This is my personal disaffection
What direction
What Direction
What Direction now
I looked outside the glass
At golden shores
Golden ships and masts
With golden cords
As my reflection passed
I hated what I saw
The Golden eyes were dead
A thought passed through my head
A heart that is made of gold can't really beat at all
I wanted to wake up again
I wanted to wake up again
Without a touch of gold
Without a touch of gold
What direction
What direction
What direction
What direction
Life begins at the intersection
What direction
What direction
What direction
What direction
I woke up as before
But the gold was gone
My wife was at the door
With a night robe on
My heart beat once or twice
And life flooded my veins
Everything had changed
My lungs had found their voice
And what was once routine
Was now the perfect joy
You have one life
You have one life
One life left to lead
You have one life
You have one life
One life left to lead
Hmm, I guess that's enough playing for now...back to work. |

I've had these for a few weeks now, but I thought I'd share. It's obvious that I'm a Ringer, and I've collected various things via presents over the years. I now have a giant poster of Middle Earth, a RotK poster, a One Ring replica with a tiny light up Mt Doom stand, a replica of Anduril (the reforged shards of Narsil, aka Aragorn's sword), and now, these:
It's a panoramic photostitch (that's why the goblets kind of disappear in places, heh) so that you could see them up close. You may remember them from Burger King's promo deal when the movies first came out. And yes, they are lit up, and do light up. My Easily Amused-o-Meter is off the charts, haha. And I do have an extra Frodo one that I use as a cup. Yes, it is the extreme in nerdiness, but oh is it wonderful. |

[Apr. 25th, 2007|11:27 pm] |
I thought I'd post since it's been a wee bit over a week and I'm trying to be regular about posting again. It helps that I've just had chocolate ice cream. It's going to be fuuun getting to sleep. (Don't worry, I actually have a huge tolerance for caffeine via chocolate.) So, interesting highlights...
It rained this weekend. A lot. It was amusing because I was thinking hey, I should really wash my windshield because it has stupid pollen layered on it. And then, it rains. Natural car washing service, thank you! We need more rain, though. *wonders if she should go around with an umbrella saying 'Tut tut, it looks like rain!'* *and yes, she knows she is a nerd*
Um, I went with my mom to a math conference on Saturday, which was shockingly fun. I won this cool magnetic cube puzzle called a Cubitz, and they had seminars on codes (some of which I may use in the future, hmm), origami and the powers of exponents, and math magic tricks. Ask me about PRYWOG and I'll tell you, it's neat. And we got pizza, so it was good. Sunday was possibly more awesome though. I'm doing child care for the new members' class again, but there were no kids, so I ended up trimming printed out Sabaac cards (it's a Star Wars game) and then coming to the youth group for Star Wars night. And we played Jeopardy, Cory style. Best Star Wars game I've played in a long time. My favorite category was Really Bad Quotes. It wasn't shocking that most of them were from Anakin, haha. The Mad Lib was pretty funny though, our group was cheeky and used Star Trek nouns, so it made it that much funnier. I think there should be a real secret weapon called the "Death Captain"...except the best one was "the hairy weapon, the Death Cory, with enough firepower to destroy an entire sombrero." *laughs*
Tonight my mom told me about a phenomenon happening in classrooms recently called "teacher baiting", where students purposefully rile teachers up so they'll get mad and yell or do something 'entertaining', then pull out their phones, take a video of it, and post it on YouTube. My thought on that is "What the heck?". Somehow I'm reminded of innocent slaves having to fight a purposefully starved and angered animal for 'entertainment'. Not that extreme, but still, it's not fair to teachers to have students disrupt the class like that just to have something to post on YouTube. Like my junior year high school AP English teacher would say, "I weep for the future." The good thing about YouTube: You can post anything you want on there. The bad thing about YouTube: You can post anything you want on there.
I think that should do it for now, but oh, PS, my brother's on YouTube. Watch it and enjoy the wonderful world of Calvin's nasopharynx: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZ8DGSbU8-w |

So, two weeks ago, my sister and I had an extended LotR marathon (that's Lord of the Rings, haha). In my opinion, the extended versions for Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers make the movies much more enjoyable. You seriously miss shining moments that the characters get (1. *some hobbit is flirting with Rosie Cotton* Sam: "Hey, watch who you're sweet talking..." Frodo: "It's ok, Sam, Rosie knows an idiot when she sees one." 2. *the Fellowship is getting ready to leave Lorien* Legolas: *picks up a piece of lembas bread* "One bite alone will full a grown man's belly." Merry: *makes a face and looks at Pippin* "How many did you eat?" Pippin: "...four." *burps* haha, I love it) and they include some more stuff in the books. So ok, it's still missing Tom Bombadil, Glorfindel, the Scouring of the Shire, and lots of other things, but no one's perfect. If the movies were straight to the books, the dialogue wouldn't be quite as amusing, and the movies would be like a week long.
I have reaaaally not been in a blogging mood lately, whoops, and the lack of posting on my blog has only made the idea of a post daunting, so I guess that's why I've been putting it off as well. Hopefully I can pick up blogging again, who knows.
So, break was good. My birthday being on Easter was interesting, I almost forgot it was my birthday as well, and I definitely don't feel 21, but that's always the case, I guess. My grandparents and great grandma came down for church and we went out to lunch, it was really nice. I love my family. Oh, and I got a free piece of Oreo pie! Funny how stuff tastes better when it's free...
Anyway, the rest of the week was pretty chill, I managed to clean the entire house (woooo), get some work done, chauffeur people around (funny how that happens pretty much the instant you get your license...hey, another person that can drive instead of me! Oh well, I actually like driving. And they have to listen to my music, bwahaha. The funniest part of that is making my brother listen to the High School Musical soundtrack. He HATES it. I'm evil, I know. But I listen to better music too, so it evens out), and then, dun dun dun, came Friday. That's when I went to the dentist to have fillings done.
Now, this would have been ordinary had I previously had Novocaine. But, on that particular day, being last Friday, I had not. And shock, horror, I didn't freak out when they gave me (count them) three shots in the back of my mouth (for my wisdom teeth, that's where the cavities were). My uncle/dentist didn't tell me he was going to give me the shots, he just did it, which didn't give me time to worry. I discovered that being numb is funny! Half of my mouth went numb for several hours, and after my appointment, I kept patting my numb cheek and laughing as well as pushing my tongue and flicking the numb half of my lip. And I tell you, drinking a milkshake whilst having a numb mouth is quite amusing, but I managed it. Another fun fact: they lace Novocaine with adrenaline so it gets to you fast, so I guess that's why I was like O-O during the procedure, and then once I got home and the Novocaine had worn off, I promptly conked out for two and a half hours. Yay drugs.
Saturday was fun too, Bree and I meandered around the library, then had lunch at the Queen Bean. Conversations with her are always highly amusing and interesting, it's great. And there was this random guy who was a couple years older than we were (or so it seemed to me), and out of the blue had us write down two sentences to analyze our handwriting. Apparently I give myself space to adjust to different situations, but I keep people close (which is pretty much true), but he also said I was more grounded than intellectual, that I lived in the here and now...hmm, right, haha. So we two were intrigued, and after a few hours, we went back to the library and checked out the same book he had with him (for reference, it was The Complete Idiot's Guide to Handwriting Analysis).
The thing that made me laugh was this: in talking about the base line (the imaginary line below your letters that your writing flows along), it said that people with slightly wavy baselines (moi) were easily distracted, and in fact, seem to welcome distractions. It went on to say that those people tend to start one project and get distracted by dozens of other things, only to remember what they were doing in the first place a lot later. That is definitely me...to a T. I'm pretty sure my most common thought is "ok...now what was I doing, again?" I think I'm slightly ADD. Which may be another reason for the postage lack... I've started posts dozens of times and only actually followed some through to get to the actual posting part. Anyway, we hung out at her house some more, and that was fun. We watched some baby finches hanging out, had tea, talked, all that good stuff.
So things were going pretty great until I got home tonight to my mom's house. There was an envelope lying on the table with those two intimidating white-on-blue words: JURY SUMMONS. *cue dramatic music* My first jury summons. May 8th. I thought the day would never come, but it has. See what happens when you register to vote and have your license? Haha. Anyway, I'm not hugely jazzed about this, but maybe I'll bring my Bible to read, or an uber-political book so I get dismissed. Ah well.
Lastly, here are some movies I've seen recently that I would recommend to you all:
The Illusionist
Blades of Glory (in theaters, SO funny)
300 (in theaters)
Casino Royale
School for Scoundrels (very funny, Jon Heder [Napoleon Dynamite] is in it)
What About Bob? (finally saw that, Erin! hehe)
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead
The Holiday
(I've seen more, but some sucked. For example: Eragon. Okay book, but the movie was totally inaccurate and cheesy, so it made for a sucky movie. Seems like such a waste of Jeremy Irons...)
And with that, I'll leave you, since this is long already, heh. What? I just blogged? *gasp* |

Hello all, just posting to inform you that I have NOT fallen off the planet, haha. I don't have anything particularly profound to say at the moment, so perhaps a post shall come later with that. It was just one of those things where I'd start a post and then get distracted by something else and the post would be forgotten as the draft was emptied into cyberspace. I think I'm slightly ADD sometimes, what with the ease I'm sidetracked and distracted and all. I took a bunch of random pictures with my awesome new camera (oh! I last posted before Christmas, so ya'll don't know about the camera...it's a Canon Powershot SD800IS, aka a suh-weet camera) and I think I'll post them on my Facebook.
Superbowl was yesterday, the game was actually amusing, what with the rain and constant fumbling because of it. It seemed like all the funny commercials were at the beginning though. My favs were the Snickers one, the Bud rock paper scissors one, and the Bud hitchhiker one.
More news at 11...or whenever I decide to sum everything up...though sometimes that doesn't happen, so I'll try to at least fill you all in a little bit.
P.S. Driving is fun, enough said. Except for this which I must say: Singing to Phantom at the top of your lungs in the car is the greatest thing ever, especially when you get weird looks from people in other cars. Hehe. Oh, and singing it with your brother is just as fun. |

I have almost all my Christmas shopping done, yay! And yes, my sister and I were rocking out to boy bands in the car on the way to and from the stores. You know they're awesome to the nostalgic power and you can't judge.
I want chocolate...or a candy cane...oooh...or a chocolate covered candy cane. That would rock.
Erin and Sarah dropped by today, that was amusing, and I decided that we need actual not-dried-up Play-Doh in our Grape Escape game. That was a great game. I'd missed those guys though...why do breaks have to be so busy? Ah well, at least we get to make cookies on Thursday.
So this is the most scattered xanga post ever, haha. I really want to submit something for the EWAC Christmas writing competition...does anyone have any brilliant ideas for a good short Christmas story? Anyone? (Bueller? lol) |

| | Hello McFly - Relient K | ] |
So lately my brother has done an amazing job of being cool in general, and I'd just like to share some amusing tidbits and/or quotes from him:
(when we were raking the yard last weekend)
Calvin: This tree has so many leaves!
Me: I know, what kind of tree is it?
Mom: It's a Modesto ash, I usually have to rake four or five times in the fall.
Calvin: *sighs* What a dumb ash.
Purp: when you burp and sort of throw up in your mouth at the same time (yeah, eww, but it was amusing, I was in the kitchen and he came in and burped and was like "Excuse me...ugh...I just purped.")
(his philosophy on bean and cheese burritos from Baja Fresh)
"It's like eating your foot and growing it back. It's just a part of you, it's so good."
(and henceforth I have called his burritos his feet) |
