That's right, bitches. I downloaded the new add-on for L4D and beat it! I only died once... and it was so crazy because I had full health and startled the witch and I died almost before she got to me. I guess that means she scared Louis to death! I always knew taking all those peelz wasn't good for him. Anyhow some updates with my life... I submitted a short story to Glimmer Train literary magazine... I'm expecting a big Epic Fail on this one but the sooner they reject me the sooner I can send it to someone else. Persistence is a new thing for me but hey, I'm not doing anything else I might as well commit to something other than 'someday' getting the Zombie Genocidist Achievement because lets face it... I'm gonna be forty when that happens.

I did however get quite a few Achievements on TR:Underworld. I know its been out for thirty years but don't judge me because I was also pwning Bioshock at the time. All the games I want--Silent Hill Shattered Memories, DJ Hero (Yes I am a giant loser), Bioshock 2, L4D2, something I forgot... is all so far away!

Aside from my descent into gamer-obsession I'm also kind of starting to want to go back for my Master's Degree. If I save up and pay it out of pocket then I won't have to teach or anything I'll just be doing classes and writing a Thesis--yeah that'll happen--so I might be able to pull it off. I know that a MA in English is probably as useless to me as the BA has been but hell I got nothing else to do. Maybe I'll get a BA in photographic arts or something too, or first or instead, who knows. I'm gonna enjoy the hell out the fall/winter holidays this year before I make any decisions about education. Also: I needs L4D friends. Boo L4D loneliness!

nd now I've written this entire journal that will be read only by me (cuz I is popular)

Cya!

PS: The lazy Mood Emoticon looks like a Boomer! EEEEEK

GAWD I am so needing to do something right now! Its 11:40 pm and I'm bored out of my mind, but not the usual kind of bored... its the kind of bored I get right before I crank out a fanfic or watch all seven seasons of Buffy or drive myself completely insane... I'm hoping something will actually come out of this other than an insane DVD marathon or me going stir crazy. It is getting close to the release date for HBP maybe I'll just go write a fanfic and celebrate how cool I really am... or bake something. XP

GO DO SOMETHING DAMN IT!

Weeheee! I have new stufffff!!! It's a few manipulations and a few straight photos as well as a weird doodle or two. I started a blog on blogger so I can force my opinions and weird need-to-know facts on the world! THE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORLD!!!! So yeah basically just new art, new blog and so close to finals that it's gone from horror to excitement now! I can't wait to get the hell away from this semester and never look back... seriously... I run in terror. Anywhos what else is interesting in life... um... oh yeah!

After I graduate with my BA from SEMO I'll be staying for my MFA if they'll pay for it... that's pretty much it. They'll put little freshmen's lives in my hands! MWAHAHAHAHAHA... I will be in the campus bulletin/class list... under my nickname, STAFF lol. I hope that I can be as scary and effective of a teacher as Snape... and I'm pretty sure having to grade bad bad papers will fuel my Snapey evil.

I'm wrapping presents for work now! So I guess since they're paying me and all I should get the hell off here and do some work. Ciao!

Don't you just love rainy days? ^_^ I'm so jolly this morning I can hardly stand it. It's raining so hard that I get to use my cool Barnes & Noble umbrella and look all literary and intelligent! WEEEEOOOO!!! I am a little apprehensive about having to walk the half-a-mile to the comic book store to pick up my copy of I Feel Sick 2 in the rain but... I might put that off until tomorrow. I have a huge amount of homework tonight so it's possible I won't even leave my room at all after I get out of class. I know you all wanted to know about this, this wonder of excitement that is my day. Well I don't want to be late for class so I'm going to just end this happy happy ramble. Good day to you all! Oh! And happy late St. Patrick's Day!!!

And so without further adieu, I return... at least to start putting some poetry and prose up. I have some classes that force me to write now and the superficial friendships I've gained by roleplaying online and lending people quarters on campus are growing tiresome. At any rate, I need some social stimulation and what better way to get it than by posting little pieces of my soul for you heartless bastards to critique and pull apart? XD I have been gone a really long time because I'd let my art slip away from me; with work and school and lack of friends I think I might have sank into some weird depression where the only thing that mattered was how many sodas I had and how many times I could beat Tomb Raider Legend. Wow so before this starts to sound like goth poetry I shall end it. I'm back now bitches! And... without any further disasters, I should be here to stay!! PRAISE ME! XD
