First and foremost, happy birthday to Glitteringloke. ♥ I sincerely hope you had a wonderful day, and that Crehador didn't pull something creepy like the sneaky bastard that he is.

Thank you to everyone who commented on my last entry about my wrist issues! =D I thought it would be easier saying thank you en masse than responding to each individual comment and coming up with different ways to say the same thing. ♥ Really, I so appreciate all the support! My wrist is doing much better now, thank you. (I'm actually not entirely sure how I hurt it to begin with; I think I was reckless with carrying my backpack and my books, and not stretching it as well as I probably should have been.) Now my left arm is a little sore after having gotten the flu shot (for the first time!) on Saturday. Which reminds me.

I decided to get my flu shot done at Walgreens to spare a trip to the doctor's office since the drug store is so much closer. $28 dollars for an influenza vaccination that holds no preservatives sounded very reasonable to me at the time. The pharmacist had me sit down so she could administer the shot. I agreed, made myself comfortable, relaxed as she told me to—but I did not expect her to jab the needle into my upper arm so forcefully! It was seriously the most painful shot I have ever gotten in my life. I also heard an absolutely disgusting and equally disconcerting spurting sound that made me think she had struck a blood vessel or something. (I never did find out exactly what had caused the noise, but I'm going to assume for the sake of my own comfort that she accidentally squirted some of the vaccine too hard. I had some of it on my shirt, so that is a reasonable assumption.) Then I looked over and saw blood on my arm—just a little dab, but I was already so freaked out from the squirting noise that even seeing just a bead of my own blood made me flip out—and I had to sit and calm down. I couldn't leave for at least fifteen minutes. Then I spent the weekend with a sore arm, and felt very achy on Sunday. If I am ever asked to administer shots as a pharmacist, I promise to be gentle about them. ;;;; Because I know that it is possible to be gentle, believe me.

The weather outside is atrocious. This storm is like World War III to those of us over here. I'm not trying to belittle any other natural disasters—goodness, no, never—but this is pretty bad for us. School was actually canceled two hours earlier today because the lights kept flickering, everyone was jittery, and the wind was howling too much for us to be able to focus. Okay, having Professor Burke be the one to interrupt class was pretty thrilling and I kind of did an internal squee. But it stopped there! XD;; IT DIDN'T GO FURTHER THAN THAT. STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT. The rain did not help, either. There were plenty of people who commute to school that did not show up today because of the weather. It's absolutely horrid. It's the first rain we're having this year, and having it be a storm is not helping. Every freeway is facing heavy traffic not only due to the rain and wind, but because of all the tree limbs scattered around aimlessly. I also fear that the electricity is going to go out as I write this.

ETA: Also, as per LK's LJ in regards to The Abridged Series:
 
"In other news, I'd like to announce that both episodes 43 and 44 are going to be premiering at Youmacon 2009. Yes, you heard me right. I've been working hard on both of them, and I'm extremely happy with the results. Especially 44, which is baffling because it's Ishizu vs Kaiba. Of all the duels to produce laughs, I didn't anticipate that one being a chucklefest."
 
This Trustshipping fangirl?—yeah, she's pretty excited right now. ♥

My right hand is not having the greatest of days. My entire thumb and a good portion of my wrist had been a little sore on Friday and Saturday, but the pain shot up last night and was just awful today. My right hand was in constant pain today, to the point of me complaining to my best friend every few minutes. I have been applying some cream that alleviates inflammation, and picked up a thumb stabilizer—which is helping, but makes typing and maneuvering my right hand a bitch. I am right handed. This is not good. I'm afraid I'm going to wake up tomorrow morning and not be able to move my hand at all. I hate having to do borderline chicken-pecking with my right hand. This seriously limits my ability to type as quickly as I would like. (Like right now I am constantly hitting the sakujo delete key.) I have no one to blame but myself. Really, it's my fault for being too reckless; I had some hand issues last summer and shortly before this summer ended. Plus, my hand had been feeling kind of uncomfortable for the past week. I should have been more observant.

So, um, lack of comments will be even more of a lack than usual. I'm so sorry. ♥;;;; I love you all.

I found out at school today that I have a pretty painful gash at the back of my ankle, towards my heel. I have no idea how it happened. I don't think I cut myself there... But it kind of freaked me out when I realized I could be getting a multitude of random nicks and cuts without ever realizing how they happened. The idea of my body getting injured without me realizing how it happened creeps me out. It could very well just be me being paranoid but, um, yeah.

I miss you all. ♥ Also, no, I haven't forgotten about the headcanon meme and I realize I have three requests to fill. XD;; I'll get to them when I can. Promise!

I saw this posted on Veleda K's journal and thought to myself, "My, this looks like oodles of fun!" I promise to reply. You just...might have to give me some time. XD;;

Comment with a character that I've written (or am currently writing about see my icon for reference especially the respective butlers or have sufficient knowledge about).
➁ Receive three bits of headcanon about their sexuality: practices, preferences, experiences, fantasies, kinks, etc.
➂ Receive information about their current love life and/or sex life if applicable and I feel like rambling at you.
➃ Receive three bits of headcanon about their life outside of sexuality and romance.

Really, Death Note fandom? Really? Can we please stop ruining an otherwise brilliant community with unnecessary (and copious) amounts of wank? Stop going batshit crazy over people's opinions on things. Just because they don't agree with you doesn't make them any less human, really. I promise that listening to the opinions of others won't make you start writhing on the floor in agony; no, you won't turn into a heaping puddle of mushy organs and slimy brain matter, either. It doesn't work that way. Seriously. Please stop cheapening an amazing series with your bugfuck defensiveness. It's superfluous. 

Why are some of us unable to sensibly and politely debate over our beloved fandom?

Now I present the Ms. Mikami FST that the awesome Nana requested on this meme a long, long time ago. XD; I'm so sorry this took so long. I would have gotten it done earlier, but life got in the way...and then my AC Adapter went out of whack last week and my laptop wouldn't work and I couldn't access Photoshop. ;;;; So, here's to finally finishing it! Unlike my other FSTs, this is a little jumpy. There is no set theme, and some of these songs can be considered Mikami's father → Ms. Mikami, while one focuses on Ms. Mikami's need for someone who cares, and another on how teenagers scare the living shit out of her. Wow, that's totally not a spoiler.


Forgetting you, but not the time. )

So what happens after my cell phone gets busted?—the wall plug to my AC Adapter for my laptop decides it doesn't want to work anymore. I ordered another AC Adapter—it was surprisingly inexpensive, and even comes with a wall plug—but it won't be here until next week. So for now I am without my darling laptop that is like my child Ethane. =/;;

the words meme via my darling [info]starsplinter  
→ Reply to this meme by yelling "Words!" and I will give you five words that remind me of you. Then post them in your LJ and explain what they mean to you.

Trustshipping
This pairing was my very first OTP, and I’m a little obsessed with it…to the point of making a community for it. XD; I love their dynamic—the fact that, in the original version, she is the only one to address him by his first name and how she was the only woman to get him down on his knees. These two manga scans are my favorite with the two; it just goes to show that despite their divergent views, they can find some common ground when the topic is their siblings. I could go off on a tangent, but I already sort of did here. XD; Just look underneath Seto/Ishizu.

Pretty!Boys
Wow, really? XD;; I am under a constant, hysterically fangirly state of utter asphyxiation. Other than the preceding picspam of whoa!pretty, I really don't know how to elaborate on this topic. I clearly enjoy fictional aesthetic value? ;; I am also frequently fangirling boy that have fair skin and long, dark hair...either that, or they are those I will die for you, if that is your wish sort of insanely loyal types. Because although it may sound a little insane, I think it's pretty endearing. In an insane way. Okay, moving on. XD;

Mikami
This fits in rather nicely with pretty!boys, don't you think? Gosh, what can I say about him? He's my all-time favorite character, hands down, out of any series, and I'm pretty sure it's going to stay that way. I think his loyalty, neurosis, and psychosis are terribly fascinating, and while there's a handful of individuals in the Death Note fandom who like to blame him for "screwing Light over," he has a devoted fan in me and nearly all of my f-list...and a huge chunk of [info]dn_contest. XD I've found that he's the easiest character in the Death Note fandom (if not other fandoms) for me to write for. I am debating whether this is a good or bad thing. HAHA. /shot

Nazis
Not quite the subject I would ever imagine myself being associated with, but I can see why considering that Splintered Star has been a sweetheart and listening to me ramble about a World War II / Holocaust-themed fanfiction I am planning on eventually writing. The Holocaust has been an area of morbid interest to me, perhaps because my Theology classes in high school focused on genocide quite a bit. I'm actually going to take a class this upcoming school year about The Holocaust & Contemporary Genocides, and after I go through all my medicine-related stuff, I want to minor in Holocaust Research like one of my professors.

The Rasmus
Clearly one of my favorite bands ever; they are currently inhabiting my top five, and will probably remain there forever because they are just so awesome. Hide From The Sun was on a cycle of endless repeat for a very, very long time. ♥ Now I need to go collect some pennies and get myself Black Roses, though I hope it's just as amazing as Hide From The Sun. Immortal is quite possibly one of the most awesome songs. Ever.

Title: Sketches (In Which Mikami Teru Finds Himself A God Who Falls Asleep On The Job)
Rating: PG-13
Pairings/Characters: Mikami (recurring); Ms. Mikami; Watari, a reference to L; Gevanni; Light (twice), Yuri; Namikawa, a reference to Higuchi; Naomi; Sachiko, and Sayu; some hints at Gevanni/Mikami; Namikawa/Mikami → Higuchi; Mikami/Naomi; and Mikami/Delete Key. (No, really.)
Warnings: Some language, sexual content, themes and imagery. Nothing heavy.
Word Count: 10 × 100
Author's Note: The only recurrent theme between all of these drabbles is that Mikami is present; they are not in chronological order, and are from various points in the series. (I was going to tack on where each drabble roughly fits in during the series, but I decided not to; If anything needs to be clarified, please let me know.) The title was created with the help of a few very good friends, and the song Knights of Cydonia by Muse. Okay, enough of my jibber-jabber. XD; Written for [info]dn_contest, Week #63 - Drabble.
 
To Mikami Teru, the killings were divine intervention. )

 
 
i am feeling rather...: okay

So, it's been ages since I've posted anything relevant to my life. Now that school is out and I jump for joy because it is summertime, bitches!, I finally have the time to post random crap that you may be interested in. AT LEAST PRETEND, OKAY? XD;
  • First and foremost, we ended my Biology class most epically with a fetal pig dissection. It was awesome—not in a Hey, look! I'm cutting up the body of a defenseless baby pig! Do you want me to squish the guts? way, but in a Wow, this is similar to how we humans look inside. We're made up of all this stuff? That's fascinating! way. I brought a facemask with me because my nose is really sensitive to the smell of formaldehyde, but ultimately everything went pretty swimmingly. After I got through all the necessary components of the dissection (we were supposed to analyze different parts of the muscular, respiratory, circulatory, urinary, etc. systems), we were allowed to remove certain organs and cut through them as we pleased. I cut out the heart and managed to slice it in half so I could see the right atrium and left ventricle. One of my friends managed to tackle the brain, and another an eyeball. It was really, really fascinating. I was surprised I didn't fall apart because it was just a poor little baby pig. I'm a sucker for those Discovery Channel shows about animals, and those commercials about homeless animals. ;;;; One of my friends who goes to a different university has to dissect a cadaver to get his doctorate. ...Yeah, I could not go that far. ;;;;;
  • I worked my last day at the hospital a couple of weeks ago and started bawling like a baby towards the end. It didn't help that all my co-workers started crying, and that our boss was nice enough to give me a pep talk. I was so emotional! Everyone was really, incredibly sweet. My closest co-worker got me a lovely card and a gold necklace, which she should not have. ;; They took me out to eat at this really nice Mexican restaurant, gave me two more cards, and pitched in for a $50 Visa debit card. I felt so unworthy, and I still do! But it was so very sweet of them. They told me I could visit any time I wanted. I visited on Thursday because they were having a pot luck and invited me. I'm really going to miss working there. =/
  • I am in dire need of letting out my inner girl and going shopping with my two best friends. Really, all we do is meander around the mall aimlessly, but still. XD;; We'll probably go when Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince comes out. Which reminds me that the movie looks ridiculously awesome. YAY FOR ANGSTY!DRACO.
  • I am currently on a movie/music binge. I bought the second Death Note live action movie and plan to watch it soon. I rented Donnie Darko today because Julia (one of my best friends) is totally in love with it. Plus, Jake Gyllenhaal FTW. Then I want to see S. Darko, and a multitude of French movies starring Ethan Michel Gaspard Ulliel. I also was able to score 21st Century Breakdown by Green Day and Black Holes and Revelations by Muse for an insanely good deal. I have yet to listen to 21st Century Breakdown, but Black Holes and Revelations = ♥ I am so addicted to City of Delusion.
  • Eek. I really have to catch up on reading/writings fics. I have too many lovely, lovely fics that I have to read (including but not limited to Ann-Sophie, Nana, and Splintered Star). I also need to upload a certain crack-fest fic for the Yuugiou fandom that I have not updated since...July of last year? ;;;; Also, the prompt for [info]dn_contest this upcoming week is drabble, and I can't pass that up! ♥
  • I also have a commitment to finish the FSTs requested on this post. Oh. Right. And I have a meme from Splintered Star that I promised I would do.
The first ten people to comment in this post get to request a drabble of any pairing / character of their choosing from me. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability. If you absolutely cannot write, I do not see why you would not be able to offer drawings or icons or something instead.
  • Oh, right. Obligatory community pimpage on my journal is obligatory. Guess who made a community for their longest standing OTP...?

Feel free to ignore this. Really. I haven't posted in ages, and while I don't have quite enough time to rant about everything that's been going on (not until next week), I do feel the need to link to random things.
  • This is one of those anime subs that reminds you why subs make you want to cackle and headdesk something simultaneously are so awesome.
  • Dude, this pairing. Is it bad that I ship them together and want to write a fic now? Does it matter? It hasn't stopped me before. XD;
  • I will just leave this and this here; I really don't know what to say about it except that we should run.
  • If you have not seen this or this, you are missing out on lulz that you so rightfully deserve. By the way, it's Twilight related. But in a good way.
