Last night I slept from 4pm-5:30am.

I've started a contest. It's the Trochaic Poetry Contest. The rhythm for trochaic poetry is, "Bumpa bumpa bumpa!" It's fun. Please enter?

My sister is annoying. One can hardly fathom the measure to which she is. And she likes to tell me how smart she is. Just leave me alone and let me type! You think she'd notice that she's overstayed her welcome, but she prefers not to think it's possible for anyone not to welcome her, and claims such people are socially inept. All of them. Because "socially inept" is a big word for her, and she's proud to say it.
She's 25, and hangs out with 18-year-olds. She knows she's immature, too. She's got this ego-defense where she keeps talking about how boring people her age who have grown up are. And I hardly dare introduce any of my new friends to her. She'll charm them away from me, even those who hate materialism such as hers.

I added a recipe for Play Dough to my RecipeCardBinder in TheStorageRoom.

  The closest thing I have ever gotten to a fandom is in my wiki page, DreadedShrinks. However, it's more true than not. Please read it; it's not riddled with spoilers except for one relatively important one, but as Roald Dahl's book The Twits is so lighthearted, I wouldn't expect that particular spoiler to matter anyways (what matters more is how it happened --which I don't give away -- not what happened).
 It's not really a story, but a formal description of the disease called the DreadedShrinks as it manifests itself in the real world.

It's been a while, hasn't it?
GAAA! There's no school. That means there's nothing to do. GAAA! Scary.
Hey... I think I actually have given myself the "dreaded shrinks".... hrrrm.... Now to find a cure!!

Notice

Sometimes, when I go to look at comment lists, this is what I see:
"Firstly i'd like to say that those criticising you should try and see if they could do better."
How annoying. How ignorant. How childish. How common.
Just because you are not an expert in the field of art that you are critiquing, it doesn't mean that you don't know what makes a good work of art!
You idiot! I'd like to say this: Those criticising critics should try and see if they can take a useful critique.

This applies to everything: Singing, cooking, dancing, visual art, poetry, storytelling...

You idiot.

My charm stinks.
Just remember:
"Charm is decietful and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears THE LORD is to be praised."
My beauty rocks.
Am I overconfident?
But my charm stinks...

I've been on for FAR too long.
Ouch.
***swoons***

And here am I storing the name of my personal wiki: TheStorageRoom.

I created...
This forum: <joinforum:628:canuck> (Oh Canada)
And this wiki Oh Canada.
The wiki is supposed to explain why the forum would be any better than a waste of time.

In the news lately...

A little more about me...

0) [Kiddalee]
1) Yepps
2) alright
3) Robotech, I was only ten and didn't know that it was anime. I just thought it was a "smarter" brand of cartoon. And I loved it.
4) Cartoon Network got me into Robotech, but I learned the term "anime" from God-knows-which of my older sister's 10000 boyfriends
5) 7 years
6) Now I call it "animation for smart people" instead of "cartoon for smart people". I'm also bitter that the well-translated or dubbed stuff is so rare.
7) Big heavy philosophical epics. I tend to miss too many episodes of the less heavy epics to enjoy them. Those which are less epic are wonderful.
8) I'll have to look that up, dear.
9) No
10) No opinion...
11) Brendan Fraser, Jack Nicholson... erm... I feel like I need one more!
12) Reign: The Conqueror (big heavy philosophical epic with a prime number of episodes, and if you've seen it you'll at least have an idea why that is significant), Cowboy Bebop (light-seeming philosophical non-epic occasionally covering heavy what-ifs), and Gundam Wing (big, less heavy than Reign, but still very heavy, philosophical epic)

I'm back after 3 months of not even having any internet at all.
That's it.
I'd just like to say that I wrote this famous phrase (I'm not sure if the guards would call me haughty if I were to put it in my bio):
"I have a slow connection. This is the way I see it: animated=slow loading for bad connections. Get it? Got it? Good."
It's in the Uploading Art Rules.
And just to prove it to you, I can send you to posting [31317] in thread [31365]. Bwahahahaaa
Now you see just how useless these diaries are.
But somehow it feels really GOOD to have your phrase up in an important wiki page. And I'm not going around screaming about it. How many people are going to read this?
Of course if an authority sees this, he'll most likely take it off. But that's okay. I'll still know. I don't care if you do, I'm just expressing my euphoria.

WHY does time seem to shrink so much when I'm on the computer??? 3 hours seems like 1, for cripes sake!

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
What's the point of having an online journal if I won't fill it in? I don't know. Do you? I don't care about your answer anyways. Now I can't even be inspired to write in my journal... forget stories or poems or even drawing! Life is not easy for me anyways. I'm hungry.
No, seriously, that's not the problem. The problem is that I've only been in school for 15 days and I'm already exhausted. I take twice as long as everyone else to do the same work, too, so that's why I don't like homework. I think I have ADD, and if the Doc says I don't, I know I have it anyways. But what do I do about it? Lots of people don't know much about ADD, but they'll tell me things that have already been tried and failed. I really just don't know who to ask for advice. And I'm not making up the ADD thing, either; if I was, I wouldn't have this problem every single school year.
But I'm hungry now, so go away!

8:37 PM

My ISP is really ticking me off.... by the way, the reason why I haven't been filling this journal in is because I have an Lj. So that is:

Go on, get outta here.

9:02am

'Tis the painful truth: I haven't touched anything that has anything to do with Elfwood or Elftown for almost a month! I'm a criminal! Well, I've been busy looking at 8-Bit Theatre, and Dragon Mango, and downloading very much schtuff. And CHATTING! On MSN, thankyouverymuch. I don't get any spam messages on MSN, by the way, although I still get spam email on Hotmail, durnit. Oh well. Who cares? I'll delete it.

I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.I-gotta-write.

Yep. I have been summoned from my computer.

*sigh*

It was beautiful outside yesterday and the day before. The sun was shining brightly, and the snow was really sparkling. The wind was blowing, but it was not cold outside. It was above freezing. *_~ Those New Yorkers in the States will be happy with the weather, I think, if they get their wind mostly from the Northwest of Canada. Yeah.... their mountains of snow on the side of the roads will finally melt.

5:00pm
Every day is a new day. la la la la la..... But the things in each day feel old..... I'm not learning much, that't the problem... I don't mean the kind of learning you do in school, I mean the kind you do by trying new things or talking to people. I think I'm supposed to learn something from living at home but I don't know what and I don't feel it coming on. If I had more of a craving for life, maybe I'd make myself enjoy it more. There's drawing, painting, walking, running, sledding, writing poems and stories, reading...hmmm...Maybe the thing I'm supposed to learn is to take some more action. I spend too much time on the computer or watching TV. I think I'll go do my homework now. Or maybe I'll play some Final Fantasy first? I'm a huge procrastinator, and I gotta schtop!!!

  I now proclaim that from this day forward, my New Year's resolution is to stop procrastinating!

1:05PM
I'm slightly inspired, but not as passionately as I want. I woke up this morning and everything was silver. Then the sun came out and gave everything a tint of blue and gold. Now, it's snowing. How pretty! It's a snow day today because somebody predicted a really bad storm for this afternoon, even though the roads were fine this morning. I'm not so sure about them now, though. It's really dumping on us. It's awesome out there! I'm going outside!
