I'm bored out of my mind...

Watching some amvs. I'd like to make one, but until I get the Ultra-HQ versions of my old ones off my hard drive, that probably won't happen. I have ideas, no energy, and some spare time. Maybe I'll just watch some more anime instead...
My computer's cd burner has learned a new trick: when it doesn't like the black cd I put in, it spits it out across the room. It's like something out of Short Circuit or something. You can't MAKE a cd drive do this. It's hilarious ('cept when I have to crawl behind my desk amid horrors unseen to find the rejected disc). - 1287 hits 2006-01-15 19:48:53 Got a new profile pic up. Feel exhausted. Found out how to use 3 new functions in preview. I hate that app, so it was a challenge.

An excert from a conversation I had with my mom earlier today:
Her: "If you're cold just pull up the covers"
Me: "The covers are heavy"
Her: "That's because of all the cats" -

What's happening with me, you ask? Not much. Writing in my jorunal online. Listening to the Toadies. Weirded out by the New Year. I hope I make the concert I got tickets to. I'm gonna be pissed if something goes wrong and my last cash of the old year goes up in smoke, instead of down on a giant orange. The event promoter promised a giant orange drop, since it is is orange county. Get it? It's sorta cute...
I'm super excited to see the Psychedelic Furs. I haven't heard ALL of their songs, but close to it. They wont go on til midnight, so I'm not planning to arrive til past 7. Take my time, enjoy the scenery. Avoid drunken ugly hairy old men hitting up on me. Ewww. That's so gross I can't even picture it without shuddering. If it happens, I always brush 'em off, no problem, tho. Why don't the cute guys hit up on me?!
Anyway, so that'll be fun. Then maybe I'll get started on an amv. Like, my first one since fall, when classes started. I'm back at the same old junior college this year. I would be disappointed, but I have yet to successfully decipher an application for a 4-year college. Maybe next year. Riiiiight. And maybe Calarts is actually interestted in my portfolio. Maybe my resolution should be to muster up the courage to actually apply, facing my crushing fear of rejection. Big eeeep!
For now, I think I'll enjoy my Christmas videos that are slowly arriving in the mail. It almost makes me miss my dearly departed tv. Almost. Tv-free is the way for me. Sigh. That was WAY too motivational poster. I can't believe those words formed in my head. Anyways... - 1246 hits 2005-12-30 02:34:10 Looking back over my amazon.com wishlist, I've grown a lot since I made it a few years ago. Of course, there is now plenty of anime on it, but fewer children's books. I suppose having to live in a grown up world, I have less time for childish things (or maybe just less interest). I did read a book lately by an artist I admire, Brom. It is an illustrated story, but I wouldn't want my kids reading it (if I had any, that is). Strange how things can appear one way on the surface & surprise you as you dig deeper. For example, I was in Santa Monica today. It seems like an artsy, friendly community, but when you look closer, it's just a bunch of clothing stores that are standard in any mall. The people are bitchy, even the guys (I hesitate to call them "men"). They all stare at me like they believe I don't belong. I guess in one sense I don't: I'm a lot less of a shallow person than these rich nobodies who think they're better than me. It just takes time to learn that, and my self-confidence seems to be waning as I get older, whether I like it or not. And yet, life goes on.
