Updating journal because it's 3 in the morning and I have nothing better to do.

Decided to do this more than once, since the answers are always changing. Might do it again.

1.Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, and find line 4.
New: “Faux finishes are also a nice touch.” – Paint it Black: A Guide to Gothic Homemaking by Voltaire

2.Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you reach?
Uh… the end corner of my bed?
New: My kitty Ellie Mae! I think she appreciated that question. She got free pets out of it.

3. What is the last thing you watched on TV?
New: Ace of Cakes. I love Geoff from that show. He’s a funny Zen dude.

4. Without looking, guess what time it is:
New: 1:40

5. Now look at the clock. What is the actual time?
New: 1:43 So close!

6. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?
New: The song: Sky Pilots by The Animals, Ellie Mae breathing, my brother and his friend talking back and forth via computer mike, cars outside, people celebrating New Year’s. Oops! The song just changed to Dunce by Voltaire.

7. When did you last step outside? What were you doing?
New: I last stepped outside when I got out of Dad’s car after driving back from visiting my mom in Sacramento.

8. Before you started this survey, what did you look at?

9. What are you wearing?
New: Fluffy pajama pants and a long, baggy t-shirt. The former is dark blue, while the latter is black.

10.Did you dream last night?
New: I still don’t remember, but it probably had something to do with King Kong and Voltaire…. don’t ask.

11. When did you last laugh?
New: At my mom’s house. I don’t remember what the last thing I was laughing at, however. I do remember that I was last at my mom’s house at 11:00 in the morning on Tuesday, December 30, though.

12. What are on the walls of the room you are in?
A Voltaire CD, a plastic stegosaurus, a wooden snake that’s moveable, a sand bag lizard, a plastic saber tooth tiger, a blue rubber band bracelet with the words “REALIST” and “www. devry. edu/ careershop .com” printed on it, and a bunch of dragons on six shelves above my bed. Then there’s a framed drawing of a horse running above my clothes drawer. I didn’t draw it.
New: Now there’s TWO Voltaire CDs.

13. Seen anything weird lately?
New: Besides my cat Coal? Nothing, really.

14. What do you think of this quiz?
New: It’s kind of fun. Fun enough to make me want to do it more than once.

New: Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life

16. If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy?
I don’t know. Books, art supplies, Voltaire… IMEANHISMUSIC! Of course.
New: Hasn’t changed, except to be specific I would buy the first edition books of Edgar Allan Poe’s works.

17. Tell me something about you that I don't know about.
You mean, EVERYTHING? XD Um, I used to play on a soccer team when I was little kid. I got a trophy. Everyone did. They spelled my name wrong on it. I was the worst player on the team.
New: Also, I hate people by default. They have to prove to me that their worth my approval.

18. If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?
I would put 2 The Ranting Gryphon in charge of the world. He seems to know what is going on. Also, my computer doesn’t recognize the correct spelling of gryphon. It thinks it should be ‘griffin,’ which is the stupid way to spell it.
New: Umm… Probably something that involves my bed and Voltaire…… C:<

19. Do you like to dance?
No.
New: Yep, still no.

20. George Bush:
Is a man. Just in case you were wondering. XD My computer says the sentence ‘George Bush: is a man’ is grammatically incorrect because it doesn’t have a question mark at the end of it. Burned by a computer, Georgey!
New: Kind of sucked.

21. Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her?
Dead. Or non-existent. Or adopted. I fucking hate children.
New: Still the same.

22. Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him?
Same answer as above.
New: SAME.

23. Would you ever consider living abroad?
Maybe in Canada. I have enough trouble with socializing without the differences of another country fucking me up.
New: Same.

24. What do you want God to say to you when you reach the pearly gates?
“I quit. Here’s the keys. You’re in charge.”
New: Also: “Lucifer is HAWT!” ‘cus that would just be funny. In case you couldn’t tell, I’m going to Hell.

1.Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, and find line 4.
“That all seem pendulous in air,” – The City in the Sea; Edgar Allan Poe
(Yay! Edgar! I should totally be reading you for a book report right now! But, it’s Friday. Sorry Edgar.)

2.Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you reach?
Uh… the end corner of my bed?

6:50

Epic Fail

6. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?

What are you? Some sort of pervert?! XD I’m wearing um… pants and t-shirt? I fail at knowing stuff about clothes.

In fifth/sixth period (they’re combined, cause my school is weird)

12. What are on the walls of the room you are in?
A Voltaire CD, a plastic stegosaurus, a wooden snake that’s moveable, a sand bag lizard, a plastic saber tooth tiger, a blue rubber band bracelet with the words “REALIST” and [link] printed on it, and a bunch of dragons on six shelves above my bed. Then there’s a framed drawing of a horse running above my clothes drawer. I didn’t draw it.

13. Seen anything weird lately?
YES. I watched an episode of The Universe about PARALLEL UNIVERSES! Apparently, the world’s top physicists thought that the fact that parallel universes have a good chance of existing was not important enough to actually go door to door to people’s houses and tell them. I think it is. I mean, one theory is that our universe is in a giant bubble that’s floating around with other universe bubbles. Bubbles that POP! I think we should be informed that someday we might just randomly pop. Bubble, by the way, is one of the most unscientific words ever. Also, I watched another episode of The Universe about Sex in Space. That was pretty weird. Also, I recently discovered that the Edgar and Ellen books by Charles Ogden have been made into lesson plans for young students. That was also pretty weird.

14. What do you think of this quiz?
It kills time.

15. What is the last film you saw?
Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog (officially my favorite movie)

16. If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy?
I don’t know. Books, art supplies, Voltaire… IMEANHISMUSIC! Of course.

I tag , and (Ha! You guys have to do it now!)

I have just finished watching the Voltaire/Ego Likeness Tour videos on YouTube, because I am an obsessed fan like that.

I found them highly entertaining. It was funny to watch Voltaire act like a drunken, lewd, bored little kid. Which is a very odd combination, by the way.

And it was VERY funny to watch Voltaire drunkenly sing karaoke.

Apparently, if you lock Voltaire in a minivan for a total of 200 hours over a 620 hour time period; with booze, a guitar, limited sleep, and Ego Likeness; he will emulate an epileptic at a rave. Hence this journal's title.

On a related note, I also watched the recap of that tour, because I am an obsessed fan like that.

One wonders what the hell that guy in Tempe, AZ was thinking. Steven from Ego Likeness was right. Voltaire is way too fucking nice. If it were me, I would have hit that guy.

Words to live by:
"Some people are like slinkies: They aren't really good for anything, but they bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs." -Unknown

Also, I vouch that if you're a chick planning to attend one of Voltaire's shows, you ought to do him a favor and throw the undergarments you are currently wearing at him. It will make him happy and work too decrease worldsuck. (Voltaire/Nerdfighter crossover!)

Ryu, if you're reading this... NO. Just NO. No panty throwing for you.

Oh, I totally remembered to call you Ryu on the 'net. I get awesome points.

FUCK FREEBIRD!

*dramatic music plays*
*Narration in dramatic movie narrator voice*

I thought I had gotten far, far away from it.

But I was wrong.

Voice from televison: "Oh, Scarlet. Your so southern-y"
Me: NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

It's back. And this time, it's in motion picture...

GONE WITH THE WIND

*End dramatic shit*

Yeah. So we're watching Gone With the Wind in Lit. class. Needless to say, I HATE THAT FUCKING STORY. AHG! AHG! AHG! AHG! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! I HATE IT WITH MORE VENGEANCE AND PURE UNDILUTED HATE THAN ANYTHING I HAVE EVER HATED WITH A VENGEANCE AND PURE UNDILUTED HATE! I HATE IT WITH MORE PASSION THAN ALL OF THE BURNING SUNS IN THE BLOODY UNIVERSE AND ALL OF THE HEAT OF THE FIRES IN HELL! I HATE IT MORE THAN GOD HATES 2 THE RANTING GRYPHON AND BOTH OF THE VOLTAIRES COMBINED! AND THAT'S A WHOLE FUCKLOAD!
Yes, well... that sucks. But besides that, we're also reading Huckleberry Finn. I'm not sure what to think of it. I'm not exactly fond of Twain, but then again, the book was pretty funny. So, I'll just have to wait and see with that. Also, I'm I the ONLY one who thinks that Edgar Allen Poe needs to be studied in school an assload more than he is? In all my years of school, we've only barely brushed Edgar Allen Poe's Tale-Tell Heart twice and The Fall of the House of Usher once. And by barely brushed, I mean we read it and talked about it for like 15 minutes, if we talked about it all. That sucks. A lot. Then teachers freak out about stories like... Gone with the Wind. UUUHHHGGGG....
