Writing and Houses

First off I found this blog just now. It's about becoming a better writer. I have to say a lot of what he says is interesting but I just don't agree with him. I don't know what it is, but I just have a different view of writing.
For instance, he says to write on a schedule. I can't do that. I have tried and I really can't. I end up getting stuck in a rut and writing the same thing over and over. For me it's best to just write as it comes. Which is the main reason as to why I have a hard time writing chronologically. I have no idea why. I guess I just have so many ideas running through my head at once that I need to get them out before I lose them.
I tried once to write chronologically. I got to this point where I lost track of the story and nothing was the way I intended it to be and it really never got anywhere because I was just writing, hoping something would appear in the various crap I was spewing out. For me it's easier to come up with a basic outline that I can stick with first and then write as I get ideas for each part. In an odd way that is what has kept me going with the "book" that I'm working on. Slowly it has evolved and I now have a much clearer idea of what is going to happen than I did when I started. Had I just sat down and tried to write a first draft it would have never developed into what it is. Though, there really isn't much actual story (Nich has been getting on to me about that part =P), but I know exactly what will happen when and there is a cohesive timeline. Though, who knows if this is really a problem for anyone else, maybe I'm just that OCD.
Also, his tips seem to be more geared towards fantasy/sci-fi/mystery writing. I tend to write more life stories. I just don't really have the imagination for fantasy. I read fantasy books and am baffled by how the writer comes up with these worlds. Tolkien blows my mind! How he not only invented worlds but also languages I will never know.

(Ugh, that entire thing sounds like a journal entry for English. HA! Ms. Davis has warped my mind.)

Anyways, on to Houses. The wonderful Amy spurred my thoughts back to houses. I told Nich once that my dream house is a Victorian with a wrap around porch, lots of land, amazing light and a lake (doesn't have to be huge just some sort of natural body of water which is bigger than a puddle). Anyways, I think that has grown. Now it is a two story Victorian, a basement, a porch that wraps around at least three sides of the house, huge windows which let in the amazing light, dark, hard wood floors, at least one room with wood paneling, dark wood cabinets in the kitchen (I hate when people paint their cabinets white, especially when it is thick almost plastic feeling paint. Ugh, I saw a picture of a house where they painted the stairs with thick white, disgusting dusty blue and an equally disgusting dusty pink. It was a gorgeous staircase too. I almost cried when I saw that.), no strange colored tile (I have lived in a house with pink tile for nearly ten years now. I never want to see colored floor tiles again.), not that much land just enough to where I can't see my neighbors, trees (I would be depressed if I had no trees),...I think that' s it. Hmmmmm. Anyways, I found this site through Amy's blog. Nearly everyone had at least one thing on the list. Maybe I should move to Baton Rouge. I've always loved Louisiana. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I want to watch Criminal Minds.
I get to see Role Models tomorrow.
I need to finish The Golden Compass by Monday.
Blah.

Hope your Thanksgiving weekday is good.
I'll probably see you before then but just in case.

Lemon Poppyseed Bread

There's a man on my neighbors' roof with a leafblower. I can see him every so often when he moves from one side to the other. It amuses me greatly.
(I always try to spell amuses with a z. I'm just an odd child that wants to use a z as much as I can get away with. Maybe that's why I like Zebras)

Fritz has somehow managed to get outside about three times now with out me knowing. So then he barks at the door to get in. I just found out. He goes out the laundry room door, which my dad always leaves open, and then he runs to the sliding glass door and barks at me to let him. That's how blond my dog is. He forgets which door he went through. Jake and I have the greatest time with him.
We feed the cats in the front room, however, the dogs will run in there and chase them away and eat the food if we don't separate them. So, we have a gate that we put up across the hallway and the kitchen has a sliding door that we close. ANYWAYS, we'll open the kitchen door and then call the dogs and they'll stand there at the gate whining and barking, never realizing that the door is open in the kitchen. It cracks me up. Also, if Fritz is distracted by something in the kitchen sometimes he'll stand up on the couch next to me and stare over his shoulder waiting to see if it's anything to go investigate, so if I tap his butt he goes running. HA! It amuses me greatly. I love my ditz of a dog. He's got one of those personalities that only a mother can love.

Anyways, that was a long, unnecessary ramble that I never intended to go on.
What I meant to tell you all is that I made my first Lemon Poppyseed Bread from scratch. Well, half scratch. It was a quick bread so it used cake mix and instant pudding. But still, up until now my only experience with Lemon Poppyseed was with those muffin mixes. I love baking.
Did I tell you?
I made my first kneaded bread the other day!!! OH, it was awesome. I had so much fun. I've never kneaded anything before. It was Scotch Bread that I made for my mom. I was happy.

Hhmmm. I don't know what else to say. Oh, tomorrow I have to go to class while my brother and my mom get the day off and my dad has been staying home all this week. I don't know why it bothers me to leave the house to go to work or school when everyone else is at home. I don't mind going if it's just my mom and my brother but if my dad is home as well it just bothers me. Huh. Whatever.
Yeah, two more weeks of school. Technically one seeing as the last week is exams and I only have to go in three days out of the week.

Humdinger. That's an interesting word. Humdinger.
Interesting is also an interesting word...and it's fun to say.
According to Hank Venture so is Scuba. Scuba.

(Wow, I've already blogged 17 times this month. I know that's not everyday but still. It's a record for me. Not to mention the fact that I started towards the middle of the month. Now let's just hope I can keep it up.)

What can I say?

Lacey sucks on SO many levels. How the HELL is she getting away with all that she does. All the more to convince me that it's scripted. I just don't understand why Sharon would be a part of that. She doesn't come off as someone who would participate in something so false. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. All I know is that out of everyone Lacey has learned the least and is still exactly the same. She is content with hurting everyone around her and she never will learn the difference between manipulation and real friendship. I don't even have to see the next episode to agree with Ricky, It's all an act. Everything. Lacey is in capable of compassion or any kind of emotion whats so ever. And don't bring up the whole animal rights thing. In my opinion that is also an act in order to push people's buttons. Not mention she can be very hypocritical about her opinions.

Now Greg is gone!? WHY?! He definitely made the most improvement. I mean you can see it not only in his confidence around women but also in the way he talks and holds himself. Matt and Simeon already had that confidence, they just needed to be taught how to use it. It was the same with the challenge; Matt's friend seemed to already have the confidence to talk to women he just didn't want to become a pick up artist, he actually seemed more hindered by the fear of coming off as a "douche". Where as Greg's friend had very little confidence, Greg even stated that his friend hadn't touched a women in nearly two years. So, yes, Matt's friend did better than Greg's but I feel that Matt had an advantage over Greg in the fact that his friend was already equipped with the ability where as Greg had to almost start from scratch, AND he only had twenty-four hours to do it. HMPH!!

Anyways, I'm in a ranting mood. Whatever.

HA! Whenever they say Gideon in Charmed I think of Criminal Minds. Speaking of Charmed; they have the entire Charmed set at Costco!! I was ecstatic when I saw it. God, I'm a nerd. I actually didn't like the show when I first started watching it and I still find things every so often that annoy me but I love it now. Not as much as Criminal Minds, mind you. I also find Angel pretty enjoyable as well. Odd how when both shows first came out I had no interest in watching either of them.

Rose McGowan's upper lip bothers me. It sticks out too much and she seems to be incapable of closing her mouth.

!!!!!!!CRIMINAL MINDS!!!!!!

We finally watched the first disc of season three and, once again, I was shown just how much I watch Criminal Minds; the answer is too much. I could follow along with them a little too well.
ANYWAYS!!! The reason I brought that up; I cried when Gideon left. And I don't even mean a few little tears that formed slightly, I mean full on tears. Though, of course, my mother was crying as well, so I didn't feel like as much of a dork (though, she cries at everything).
It was just such a perfect exit for him (and part of me was just glad that he didn't kill himself, which would not only have devastated me but just wouldn't be in his character [Oh my god, there would have been massive waterworks and temporary protest and yelling if that had happened]). For me, it's just fitting that he's off traveling towards nowhere, trying to find a renewed purpose and meaning to life. Another, deeper, more hidden side of me, the side that wishes I could afford to do that as well, was wishing he would take me with him. Just to add to it, the fact that he left a note specifically for Reid was just...ahhhh (sigh of relief ah, not screaming ah).
Which leads me to another thing; I think I've gotten too comfortable with the show. HA! I respond to the characters and add in my own little opinions. I'm not sure if anyone really cares but I feel my family might be getting a bit annoyed. It's even more strange when I can either guess what their going to say or pick out bits of the profile before they state it. Yeah, I'm not strange or obsessed.
It was even more amusing when I could quote which episodes were which when my father was confused as to why Gideon was upset and my mother and brother were confusing episodes. I've never been that obsessed with a show, not even lost, which I still get episodes confused every so often. Of course, I'm not at the point where I can tell you the episode number, name, beginning quote, ending quote and what all happened. I couldn't imagine how Stephanie and I would be at a Criminal Minds trivia game.
{Blink} That. Would. Be. AWESOME!!!
I will be the first in line if they ever make that game.

Well, I need to do Tae-Bo and take a shower before it gets too late.

Random thoughts which spilled out on flickr

I want to watch Criminal Minds.
This weeks was about math and the golden ration and all that.
I thought of Nich instantly.
The sad thing is, I've listened to Nich talk about it for so long that I recognized it instantly. I even laughed at the Existentialist joke, not because it was an awkward situation but because I got it.
Nich has warped my mind. But is it for the better or for the worse?

I decided that once the new year starts I'll do 365. I know I've said that nearly fifty million times and never did it. However, I'm thinking that if I start with just taking a picture everyday and not necessarily a self-portrait everyday then it will be less intimidating.
Of course, this is also proof of how OCD I can get. I can't just start at random I need a particular date to start on.

How are you cool cats today?

ARRRGGGGHH!!!

For those who have been watching VH1s Rock of Love or Rock of Love Charm School will know of Lacey and her Animal Rights Activism. Those who watched last night's episode of Rock of Love will now know that Lacey eats fish, making her not only not a vegan but not a vegetarian (you eat fish, fish is meat, you are not a vegetarian. Let's get that through our heads people). So, Dallas tells Lacey that she is a hypocrite because she is eating fish, more specifically Salmon and Caviar, while preaching about animal rights. Well, of course, they got into a fight and while I do feel Dallas could have handled it better, she didn't touch Lacey at all. Where as, Lacey went on being her usual self; antagonizing and trying to get Dallas to do something. All that aside, Vh1 cut out Lacey's explanation on why she eats fish, which was the topic of her latest blog entry over at MySpace (I really wanted to know which is why I hunted it down).

All I can say is WHAT THE HELL??!!!
To do something is better than doing nothing???!!!

Yes, while this is a noble statement, it is still hypocritical when it comes to animal rights. By giving animals rights they should be given the right not to be hunted, killed and/or eaten and that includes fish. Anyone who says fish is not meat is idiotic and needs to re-evaluate their ideas of what meat is.

Someone commented this further down on the site:
Fish are missing the part of the cerebral cortex necessary for them to feel pain. To me an animal who doesn't register pain is not an animal who counts anyway. I am not a vegetarian for "health reasons". I just don't feel that I should deprive my body of natural calcium. I would if I didn't know how important natural calcium is in the far future. I eat meat at least once or twice a week. You can fight for animal rights and have a steak dinner to celebrate saving an animal. You are only doing what is natural for a human to do. Omnivorous glory and topped with a medium rare steak.

That is the lamest excuse I have ever heard. So by that logic let's just eat psychopaths. They have no emotions and can feel no pain or remorse. HEY! Let's eat Megan!! Not to mention the fact that fish are fully aware of what is happening to them while they are dieing. A five year old could tell you that. They may not feel pain but what the hell do you think they are doing when they flop around on the ground once out of water?! Trying to get back in. They know they are about to die and are trying to change that. Obviously any animal rights activist who eats fish has not been fishing.

Which leads me to why I feel PETA is the worst representation of Animal Rights Activists and sadly that is the only representation we have (it's the same bisexuals. Our only vocal representation is a whore). They are all about saving the cows and the baby seals. Have you ever seen a video of a fish being killed on PETA? No. In fact the only animal cruelty they show on TV is fish. They have fishing shows! Even though fish don't cry out in pain or fear does not mean they do not know they are dieing. Vegan and animal rights activists have gotten a bad name from PETA who are a bunch of hypocrites anyways. I'm surprised that the whole thing about the PETA leader thinking all pit bulls should be euthanized and two PETA participants killing stray cats in the back of a van isn't brought up more often. Oh, wait, I'm not, because PETA is made up of people like Lacey and Megan. People who will lie and manipulate their way out of anything and make them look like the victim in the end. I'm sure the PETA leader was attacked by a dog when she was a child. Well, I was once attacked by a PETA representative, there for all PETA followers should be put down. See the logic, it makes no sense.

Just to add to it Lacey never really comes out and states her reason for eating fish. She pawns it all off on "It's your fault America. Do something instead of nothing." She does state that she is against factory farming. Well, fish are factory farmed. How do you think we get so many? Do you think it's all some Japanese fisherman on his boat catching fish for America? Or is it a bunch of tough guys on big ships wrangling fish, risking their lives?

Whatever, if you're going to fight for animal rights, fight for them all and not just to your convenience. And don't give me bull crap about God put certain animals on the planet for us to eat. 1) According to the bible they were here before us and no where does it say for eating, 2) that is the ignorant shit that started slavery, and 3) we now have processed food, they can make fake meat for you that tastes a lot like meat and is just as healthy. Also, the whole thing of it's unhealthy to not eat meat, bull crap! It has been proven that a vegan diet is much healthier than a meat diet and I don't just mean red meat either. Do the research. I didn't just decided, oh poor animals I think I'll stop eating them. I made sure that I wasn't harming my self by doing it first. Research, Research, Research. It's not just for school. When I think about, I have yet to get an anti-vegan/vegetarian argument that isn't completely idiotic and/or poorly thought out. All I can say is, do the research.

Wow, that was longer than I intended and I rambled a lot, plus I am now late for class. Ah, well, it was worth it. I'm tired of idiotic hypocrites giving my believes and life styles a bad name.

Baby Animals equal massive AWWWs

My Grandmother emailed me this;

Newborn giraffe Margaret at Chester Zoo, UK

Most babies measured 5ft would be considered big - but newborn giraffe Margaret at Chester Zoo, UK is seen as unusually small for her species.
How sweet!

She is one of the smallest giraffes ever born at Chester Zoo but pint-sized Margaret will soon be an animal to look up to.

Little Margaret, who is the first female Rothschild giraffe born at the zoo, is being hand-reared by her dedicated keepers.

The first calf for six-year-old mum Fay, Margaret, who was born two weeks early, tipped the scales at just 34 kilos and is a mere 5ft tall.

Tim Rowlands, team leader of the Giraffes section, said: 'Margaret is potentially one of the smallest giraffe calves we have ever seen. Fay isn't the largest of giraffes and Margaret was also early which might go some way to explaining her size.

'Margaret was having difficulty suckling so our keeping team are now hand-rearing her'.


Note that I did not take these photos. I was emailed them and don't even know who took them. So they do not belong to me. If you know who they do belong to and feel it important that they are credited (which I do) please tell me so I can properly do that.

Organic Mayonaise

Let's take one of the unhealthiest foods and make it organic.
Yeah, because that's a great idea!
Society confuses me.

(I have now watched the lastest two new episodes of Criminal Minds three times and have the third season split between mine and my brother's netfilx so I can have two discs at once. I am becoming re-obsessed.)
(If I ever have a son I hope he turns out like Reid {The sad thing is I have very few doubts that he will, seeing as he'll have me as a mother}!!)

I would love to get a PHD in English. That would make me the happiest child in the world. However, my father doesn't believe I can get a proper career with any degree in English except English teacher and I refuse to be a teacher. Therefore, I am hesitant to major in English alone.
What does this say about me?
That I strive so much for my father's approval that I am willing to give up something that makes me happy in order to make him some what happy?
What does it say about me that I refer to myself as "the happiest child in the world" when I am nineteen and by the time I would earn a PHD I would be most likely twice that?
What does it say about me that I am profiling myself?
Ah, now that one is easy; that I watch too much Criminal Minds.

How does Harry Potter define good vs. evil?
Is it didactic?
If it is, how?
Why is it controversial?
Is the controversy justified?

When you are forced to blast happy indie music on your headphones in order to block out the stressful sound of guns as your brother and his friend play some very non-peaceful game and you rack your brain on answering questions about a book you've read before but in a different place and all the words are the same but different at the same time, you start to realize that the hardest part is always starting at the beginning (Then you regret the fact that the beginning is the most important part).

A few things to say

Kill Bill Vol.1 and 2 are on TBS. I forgot how good those movies are.
I love them both so much; there is a sadistic, haunting, nearly horrifying beauty in them.
And it doesn't help that I love the feeling of desert areas. I guess I really am a Southern child at heart. I would love to live in Arizona or Nevada. Pretty much anywhere that had that desert air to it. I really can't explain why, but it's peaceful and nostalgic to me, where as Northern areas with snow and a real autumn are, truthfully, just an adventure that I would like to experience.
I guess in reality I won't be happy unless I'm living out of the backseat of my car.

AND, I got Sims 2 Free Time and Apartment Life! I'm a bit worried that my computer won't be able to handle both. Ah, well. I will one day have a laptop that is one hundred percent dedicated to Sims!!! That would be a dream come true. (That reminds me, I need to get my Nightlife from Stephanie)
Speaking of Sims I am dreading Sims 3. Stephanie is excited but I'm not. I play Sims for a reason; so I can control peoples lives. The fact that they will continue living when I'm not there watching over them freaks me out. I have a hard enough time keeping them in line when I am there. I'm afraid they'll ruin their lives.
We'll see, I'll try it when Stephanie gets it. Then we'll see. For now, I'm just happy that the expansion packs are at half price at Wal-Mart.

AGH, these new X-box commercials freak me out.
I decided I'm going to skip Drawing tomorrow.
I have too much to do.
I have to;
one, work extensively on my drawing
two, read the second half of Harry Potter that I somehow was unable to do today
three, journal about Harry Potter (which I can do without finishing it but I insist on it)
four, do math homework (which I missed one that was due friday, I will rant about the stupidity of doing math homework online in a minute)
five, pick up my grandmother from the airport around four

If I did go to class not only is that two hours out of the day that I would only have a chance of drawing in, but I would also have the possibility of seeing Nich, which I can not say no to him once I see him. Also, I have a hard time concentrating once I get home. So, the only way to help this would be to stay home. Besides, it's not like I'll miss anything, except drawing. There, I have convinced my self as of why I should stay home.

Anyways, doing math homework online. It is the stupidest thing I have ever experienced. Not only does it not make much sense in my mind, but it's difficult to keep track with. I always forget until after it is due, unless it is due Mondays because that is when I do the rest of my homework. For some reason it is just easier for me to remember if it is something that I have to physically turn in. I don't know maybe I'm weird. The only good thing is that you get to do every problem until you get it right. So no stupid mistakes.

AH HA! I have a piece that I did for drawing that I am not one hundred percent happy with. What is worse is that it was done in ink so I can't really mark over the mistakes. I tried using white out, which works okay, but my professor wants us to submit at least one piece into the art show and that is the one I am most pleased with and I know the judge will dislike that. SO, I've been warping my brain trying to figure out how to fix it and I just thought of a way!! So, that's one more thing I need to do tomorrow.

I think that's it.
How is the world today?
Well, actually yesterday?
Or tomorrow?

What do you want from me

My cat whines in her sleep.
I don't mean cute little whimpers either, I mean full out, repetitive meowing.
I find it very odd.

I'm ready to move out. Not because I'm miserable at home or because I hate my parents, but because I'm just genuinely ready to be independent and support myself. Though, I have no job and only $86 in the bank so...we'll see how long until that dream comes true.
Speaking of moving out, I don't know if I've stated this here or not but Texas State has Undergraduate degrees in Photography. Well, it's a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Digital Photographic Imagery, just to be a tad specific.
However, I would like to get at least an associates in English. I was looking into double majoring at Texas State but, god damn, it is confusing and stressful.
So, I was thinking of getting an Associates in English here and then transferring to Texas State. Also, this way, I may be able to avoid the dorm rule. Which is; all students under 21 with less than 52 credit hours must live in a dorm. Maybe by the time I get done with an associates and the transfer courses for the BFA I'll be over 52 hours, or I'll be 21. I don't know it should take me about another year and a half to finish.

Ah, well. We'll see, I need a job before I can really focus on all that.

Twitter

I set up my cell phone with my twitter account.
I still don't one hundred percent understand how it works but, oh well.

Anyways, I would like to start keeping up with certain things.
Namely;
Twitter
This blog
My movie blog thing
My site
Journaling
flickr/365

I believe that's it.

The girl who plays the main chick in the Twilight movie has an annoying voice, at least what I have heard of it. I don't think I could sit through a whole movie with her talking.
Speaking of Twilight, my mother wants to read them, to give them a chance, and I told her that if she likes them I'll read them.
She hasn't read them yet. Though she read the His Dark Materials series, which she liked and I told her I would read those as well, but I have to wait until after I finish Harry Potter for class.
I want to read His Dark Materials, Narnia, Lord of the Rings and re-read Harry Potter.
Especially Harry Potter. I would like to re-read them, just to see if I get something different out of them. It would also help to be able to read them rather than hear them. My mother read all of them out loud to Jake and I.
I have a massive list of books I want to read/own, let alone all the ones I already own but haven't read and the ones that I want to re-read.

Ah, speaking of books, I finished The Little Prince. That was such a good book and it only took me about two days. It would have taken me one but, ya know. I say everyone should read it. Oh, but it is deep. I don't think I've read a book that was so metaphorical and deep.

I want to travel, massively. I want to go to New York, Nevada, Arizona, California, Louisiana, Mississippi or Canada. Nich and I want to take a road trip where we visit every state, including Canada.

Obama won!
I did vote for him and I really didn't care who won, I felt both were perfectly capable of running the country, but part of me wanted McCain to win partly so all the people who wanted Obama in office for ridiculous reasons (because he's black mainly) would be shot down.
My parents said that we would move to Canada if Obama won.
Well, he won.

Drawing

I am so proud of myself!
The past two projects I have turned in my Drawing teacher loved.
Even with the first one, everything I had already stressed over and hated he said I could improve on.

ALSO, on Friday he asked if I was exhibited anywhere to which, of course, I said no. He then asked if I had ever been exhibited and, again, I said no. After which he said that I should be.
I was shocked and didn't know what to say so I just smiled and laughed.
Wow, I was not expecting that.
Anyways, I don't know what I would exhibit, let alone how to exhibit it so, that won't happen anytime soon =D

Also on Friday this guy came to class dressed as Jack from Pirates of the Caribbean. It was amazing! He made the entire thing by hand and even had the character down, he even moved his mouth the same way when he talked (though, I think I'm the only nerd who would have noticed that).
At one point he ran and it was exact!
It was like watching Johnny Depp walk around in front of us.
What made it even better was that he stayed in character the entire time. At one point a teacher stopped him to oggle his costume. This is how the conversation went;
"Did you make the whole costume?"
"What costume?"
-Laughs from the teacher and everyone in the hall-
"No, seriously did you make it?"
"I killed this."
-tugs on a pelt on his belt- (HA! that rhymes)
It was awesome! I was partially angry at Nich, because if he hadn't have planned to go straight home after class that day I would have had my camera and would have had pictures.
Ah, well, you'll just have to trust me when I tell you that it was the best Jack costume I have ever seen.

Love much

OH! And...

Before I forget, an amazing quote that I want everyone in the world to hear;

A man told his grandson: "A terrible fight is going on inside me -- a fight between two wolves. One is evil, and represents hate, anger, arrogance, intolerance, and superiority . The other is good, and represents joy, peace, love, tolerance, understanding, humility, kindness, empathy, generosity, and compassion. This same fight is going on inside you, inside every other person too."

The grandson then asked: "Which wolf will win?"

The old man replied simply: "The one you feed."

- Anon.

That's all
