Ugh. Last week, I seriously got about halfway through writing my weekly post on my iPod when it decided to die. Without saving any of it. *tick mark infinity* I just don't even wanna try doing the whole thing again, so I'll hope with these words my future self will remember, and that none of these events needed to be expanded on for anyone else.
Zane (stupid Ninjago finale made me cry), Chespirito (Gracias por siempre~), one-shots ("Imaginary", and now I have to do "Chicken Nugget"?), tailgate (and dingdong-ditching, which I really didn't want to participate in), Thanksgiving
(Penguins of Madagascar, dinners)
For the first time in forever (one of the only Frozen references I use), I changed my phone wallpaper. And it was to the first picture, to commemorate El Chavo, since Chespirito died a week ago.
Okay, this week. I guess I'll start with Allakai. He's a friend I made back when Darkrai did RPs on FFN. A little after that ended, we kept in touch through PM (geez, so many abbreviations), and then did a chill RP in PM. (Well, actually, we still are.) Anyway, he asked me for my phone number, and since I trust him, I gave it. We texted basically every day since then.
Once again, I am reminded of why I kinda despise texting. Usually, people want to text nonstop for hours, but it's difficult for me to do that. I do stuff throughout the day! I like to be able to focus completely, not multitask! I am no good with multitasking, and I don't like it! But I feel bad about not keeping up a conversation just cuz I'm eating or watching TV or something, so I only do it when it's absolutely necessary, like I'm about to sleep. Unless our conversation isn't very fun anymore or I really just don't want to text, then I use what I need to do that day as an excuse to stop, at least for a few hours.
Most of our time texting is just kinda small talk, I guess, and maybe delving into something like favorite characters every once in a while. But then eventually it just turns into one of us kinda venting, usually Allakai. And just saying something they've had difficulty saying to someone else. I have little advice for his problems, but the advice I do have is advice he doesn't want to listen to. *huff* Dude, I'm listening to you, and I'm giving you good ideas to help your health and your emotional stuff and your entire well being. The least you could do is consider some of it.
But, of cooouuurse, people don't want to take pills or be part of a religion. Yes, most of both of these are bad (or just not very good) and horrible stuff has been done using either as an excuse. But those are criminals and idiots, and there are still things that actually work from both. Like, my sister takes pills that help to balance hormones, because she has a lot of problems since her hormones are out of whack. But that's the only pill. Something like that could change everything for the people that need it, but then they don't want to, or they abuse it, or they use the wrong prescription. If you are careful, medication is a good thing.
And there's the religion thing. I know without a doubt in my mind that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is the only true church on the Earth. Only one. It is a Christian (let me repeat- Christian. Some people don't know that) church with millions of members all over the world. I mean, have you seen Meet the Mormons? Some think they just aren't meant to be religious, but the gospel is for everyone. I am who I am now because of the gospel. I wouldn't have been born without it. My home and family wouldn't be so great without it. I'm dealing with some things- in fact, those things are mainly wanting to help my friends, because I already love my parents and my sister, and I really only stress about projects in school cuz I have pretty dang good grades, and my personal health is... decent- but I'm probably more overall happy than most of the other students at my school. And I know that the things I've been taught of the gospel by my parents and teachers are the main reason why. I am awesome because of it. Why wouldn't anyone else want to become happier and more awesome? Why aren't there more happier, awesome people? I know why. Because a large percentage of the population doesn't want to pray sincerely. *blink* I'm sorry, but... really? Really? That's your excuse?
Sorry, needed to get that off my chest. *sigh* I promise I'm nicer and not so blunt most of the time.
Wow, I don't think I've talked yet about this guy at my school. I'm gonna call him Dallas cuz he was born in Texas.
The time I met him was him telling me he really likes me.
You can probably imagine what's happened since then.
He's cool and stuff, but clingy. Like, first we talked a little during PE. Then also after school. Then also before school. And then he discovered we have the same lunch period. I wanted to punch him when he just kept finding more times to talk.
What bugs me the most about this is that I know his ultimate goal is to take me out on a date. I told him clearly NO and why multiple times, and he's like "Yeah, cool, we'll just be friends." I emphasized the 'friend' part multiple times too. But he still mentions places he wants to take me, and he told me he wanted to get me a Christmas present, and a bunch of other stuff that frustrates me because it seems like he still thinks he has a chance. NO DUDE. NO. Has he seriously not absorbed any of what I've said? I mean, I know I was trying to put it more gentle and stuff, but... *growl* It still feels sometimes like he treats me like a girlfriend! Or a soon-to-be girlfriend! And I usually love to hug people, but he somehow does it in a way in which I wish he'd never hug me again! Someone has to make me really uncomfortable to do that.
Good news is that I won't have PE anymore next semester, so I won't have that class with him. Bad news is that he'll want more than ever to talk to me. Will I have to yell that I wish he'd leave me alone right before Winter Break? That would ruin his Christmas, and it might make him really mad and plot his revenge. But it feels like I'm trying to edge away from the stuff he does a little at a time (I've asked him to cut down on the compliments and stuff like that) but he still wants to get closer. Maybe this is the only option!
We had eye exams last week. My prescription has barely changed. The optometrist didn't say if my eyesight is worse or better, but I'm gonna assume it's worse. The same day, we ordered new glasses on ZennyOptical.com, like we always do. I won't have black frames anymore! I'll post pics of them once they arrive and I know they look good.
I have a friend whose interests are... interesting. She likes to sing and act (part of the school play and is choreographer for her all-girls choir). She isn't as good at math (although I still think she's better than she realizes) and doesn't like reading much because of dyslexia, but it turns out she loves to write. ...? (Granted, there's a lot of typos and stuff in her work, but she stills enjoys it.) And, most surprising, is that she is obsessed with Korean entertainment. Korean dramas (my dad watched some of one and I saw bits of it, and it really was pretty good) and K-pop are her life. Turns out she actually knows some Korean, and a little Japanese, and tried Chinese but it was too hard. But, so, she wrote a fanfic for a K-pop band (I think it was called Exo) and asked me to read it. It's a whole fantasy thing that was actually not that bad. It just really threw me off, though, knowing that the person who wrote it was a redhead who I guess I'll call Bunny. (Future Me will get why.) She told me she's one of the most well-known writers in her fandom. So I guess she's the equivalent of someone like the writer of The Blood Alchemist (LeFay Strent, right? *sweat drop*) on FFN's FMA fanbase? That makes this even weirder. Bunny just doesn't look like someone obsessed with Asains...
On Wattpad, I read another story (I've read a different one already on FFN) that had the cover picture of a fanart of Edward Elric with wings (one being automail). I wonder if these artists really use that picture for inspiration, since I haven't seen anyone else draw a picture like that, and both stories could use the same image, but were entirely different. Hmm... Also, I wonder who the heck decided to draw it in the first place?
But noticing that people were inspired by the picture, I suddenly got inspiration of my own. It would be a crossover between FMA and Maximum Ride. The concept would be that Ed and Al find the Flock by following Fang's blog (Fang is my favorite character, by the way) and try to see how they can help. They explain that they were once at The School too, but they were fused with the avian DNA after they were born- basically, scientists tried alchemy on them, and they successfully became human-bird chimeras. Through listening to the alchemists discussing and finding ways to get out of their cages to read the alchemy books, Ed and Al figure out how to transmute. Of course they want to escape The School, but they correctly assumed that if they just left they would be chased down again. So, more than that, they wanted to separate themselves from the birds so that they were normal and hopefully could escape without getting hunted. Ed volunteered to be tested on first, so the brothers studied and drew the circle and activated it while he was in the middle. Sadly, not only was their chimera-ness impossible to reverse, but they had something wrong in the formula, so Ed lost his arm, leg, and wings (but everything else is the same, including organs). When he healed (enough), the brothers escaped anyways, but did something (not sure yet) so that it looked like they died in their cages, so they were totally free from The School's grasp.
I doubt I would write something with more than 3 chapters, if I actually do this, instead of trying to get Ed and Al to follow along all the adventures of Max, since I don't know all of what happens, I have a hard time finishing long stories, and Maximum Ride is cool, but not one of my favorites anyway. Still an interesting concept, no? And, trust me, there's plenty of FMA fanfics that are more messed up. *shiver*
...I think that's it, besides that today is the annual churchwide Christmas Devotional! *yay*
