So, it seems most everyone on AIM has decided to abandon me today, but no matter; hardly any of them talk to me anyway… :|

I have been very bored, but I’m surprised at how quickly time is moving. Just yesterday was Sunday and now we’re dawning on Wednesday… “Oh, man” is all I have to say…

It’s getting hard to think about not going back to Dacula. Most years, this time of summer is devoted to looking forward to school, getting back into the swing of things, and seeing how friends have changed. Sadly, once again, I find myself with nothing to look forward to, few people who seem to remember my existence, and the still indefinite date of moving…

But that wasn’t the point of this post… We’ll save that for another rant… Or wait, haven’t I already covered changing schools a few times…?

I had an interesting idea of trying to go about some stuff with my eyes closed. Yeah, I know: I am a freak. So, I just took a shower with my eyes closed (ok… I lie, I kept my eyes open while I was getting the hair out of my, well… hair — just got a hair cut). It was mildly amusing stumbling around looking for the shampoo bottle (I left it in the corner, not in the shower caddy thing :D) and almost falling over in my own bathtub… I managed to get out, find some clothes, clean out my ears, deodorize, and comb my hair with my eyes still closed. And most amazing of all, I got to this page (my eyes are open at the moment though).

Well.. now that we’ve all been thoroughly amused with my patheticosity (patheticness?), we can all stumble on with our lives… Oddly enough, right at this moment I got an idea for a somewhat interesting post… Ah well, hopefully I won’t forget about it…

Found this on the internet. Thought it was interesting:

I entered this “contest” where you come up with an acronym for “Sneuropa” to win an iPod Sock and I sort of won one. The guy emailed me and apparently I was first to respond, so I had my choice of colors… so I should be getting a green one in the mail sometime soon.

Yay me. :)

Whoa!
Let’s let that sink in a bit…
Whoa!
Ok, you get the point.

I’m not going to say anything that’ll ruin the book for all those who haven’t yet finished it, but I have to say, the Prince is definitely not who you think it is. Well.. maybe not definitely.. he’s a character that’s been around since the Sorcerer’s Stone, but he’s not anyone who was commonly thought to be the Prince… at least to my knowledge…

Man.. I just finished the book about an hour ago, and I still can’t believe it. The book wasn’t actually all that great until the last 75-100 pages (you actually don’t find out who the Prince is until 40 or 50 pages from the end). There are no outrageous battles with Voldemort and no new villains (does that qualify as ruining the book), but there is tons of new information and well… information.

I still can’t believe it! Du–… no.. I can’t tell you… ;)

So now that I’m back into the real world, it’s finally starting to dawn on me that I’m not going back to Dacula… 3 weeks till we restart, and once again, I really will be restarting… :(
Gah! If and when I have kids, I’m not moving. Ever. No one should have to go through crap like this…

If I didn’t still have summer reading left (still! after I’ve already read two books…) and that essay, I’d go back and read the entire Harry Potter series straight through… hmm… maybe I’ll be able to fit it in. I dunno, Old World Encounters is intense (it took me more than 45 minutes to read 10 pages, and I’m not entirely sure what it was about)…

I’m hoping this was logical as I’m far too lazy to reread it…

Edit: I just checked to see how long the books are.. lol. The whole series thus far is 3,365 pages. :O
And at my rate of a page a minute (it’s freakish. it’s
exactly 60 seconds a page), that would take… 56 hours and 5 minutes… Man.
At the moment, I’d rank them: Half-Blood Prince, Prisoner of Azkaban, Chamber of Secrets, Goblet of Fire, Order of the Phoenix, Sorcerer’s Stone, but who knows how that’ll change in the future…

Easily a record…
The lack of posts is mirrored in a lack of life. I really just don’t understand why these things are happening…

Perhaps I just need to grow up… :-|

Anyone good with cheering up?
