I hate MSN... I'm not sure what it's upgrading but it I suddenly have to do the upgrade if I want it to even open the sign in screen (thanks for the warning, microsoft) and I do kinda want to talk to my friends and now it's taking forever. Seriously, I get skype as an alternative because I thought some other people use it and I've never spoken to anyone using it... I hate MSN.

Reading the screenshots of the racist abuse a significant minority of Americans sent Brits on tumblr yesterday. In a weird way it's hilarious - the people who sent the comments just made themselves look stupid - and makes me proud of my country.
But seriously, these people send others these kind of things and then say that the recipients are in the wrong? Give me a break. If you're so proud of your country stop giving it a bad name. I feel sorry for the majority of Americans who have to put up with these idiots.
Scary thing is I could have been in the States yesterday... so glad I wasn't.

I updated something on fanfiction.net for the first time in MONTHS! I feel ridiculously proud of myself XD Only Thranduil, Galion and Amroth are being overly-angsty. Seriously, guys; chillax. -pokes them- I have one too few arms.

People on tumblr are now getting their knickers in a twist becaause someone's done a screenshot of the 7th hobbit vlog and claimed that one of the actors practicing fighting in half-costume is Lee Pace. And this person has a kind of browny-gingery wig on. I'm sorry but a) that isn't Lee; that's a stunt double like what they said these guys were in the vlog and b) okay so it might be Lee's but Lee's one of those actors who does his own stunts and considering Jackson probably hasn't made the huge mistake of not making Thranduil blonde it's either an Elf who'se in the background of the battle or they haven't finished bleaching the wigs yet. They do bleach the wigs you know, guys.
-standing with finger pointing at laptop and slightly raised, incredulous eye-brows- That said if they've made me brunette I'll... tables will be flipped. And then set on fire. And catapulted at them. Death by table.

My big plan for learning Louisiana Creole French has hit an obstacle. The obstacle being there are virtually no resources out there. At all. I've found like 2 useful websites but they don't have much info. And whenever I try to search for books on it I get redirected to Haitian. I asked for Kreyol Lwiziyen, not Haitian! DX sadness.

I finally put some Led Zep back on my sansa and I thought 'well, I've never written to them so let's daydream and see what happens.'
...Turns out that when listening to Kashmir, and maybe others, Thranduil becomes quite a bit like Fëanor [and generally shadowy characters in manga flouncing around with long hair and winning winks and virtually no mercy]... it is both epic and disturbing. Mind you I'd realised before that when he's exacting revenge he does it in a Fëanor-esque way. I can just imagine him being like 'bitches please; I do what I want' and ordering everyone to follow him to the end of the earth like 'I'm gonna gnaw the Necromancer's head off with my teeth because I'm just that badass!'
I should write a fanfic with Kashmir on repeat sometime soon.

Why does everything stressful have to happen all at once? For the past few days I've been feeling sick, shit and have been snapping at everyone. And I've been really tired, so now I've fucked up my phone registration. And because of their stupid system you need a registered sim on your number to get a pin to registe a new sim. I don't have a fucking registered sim on my number, you  , otherwise I wouldn't be trying to reregister the new sim properly. And now I have no idea what to do, so now I'm going to have to tell Dad about it, who is also stressed and will get pissy at my really stupid mistake. So then I'll have his annoyance hanging over my head as well as my feelings of uselessness. Fuck university, fuck operations and fuck technology. |

So I have to be at the hospital at about 7:30 tomorrow, so I have to be out of the house at 6:50 or earlier. I don't even know. So then I was thinking I'll have to get up at 5:30 or something but then I thought there's no point because it's not like I'll be able to eat anything. I can't eat anything now let alone 3 hours before the op. Hell I can't even drink anything after 2 hours to go. I'm pretending that what's really getting to me is that I can't drink tea until after my op so in a few day's time when things have settled down a bit. No caffeine! For 2 days! But that's not what's really worrying me; it's everything else. God I'm shitting myself. I don't think I've ever been this scared before in my life that I remember, which shows what a sheltered, risk-free life I lead.
I haven't announced that I'm having my wisdom teeth out outside my family anywhere but here because I don't want the patronisation of over-wraught pity, or the smugness hidden in pity from those who've already had them out, or the whole thing of 'oh don't worry, it'll be fine. there's nothing to worry about. it's a doddle!' especially from people who haven't had theirs taken out. I hate teeth, I really hate them. And if it really is a doddle then you won't mind if I pull yours out with my dad's pliers, will you?

I really don't want to go to bed because then tomorrow will seem to come quicker. But I have to get up at 6 tomorrow and I'm so tired even though it's only 20 past 9...

I had the op 5 hours ago and my mouth is still bleeding and my lips are still numb. I really really hate this.

Note to self: Don't tell people your plans, hopes or dreams because they'll either copy them and claim them as their own or shoot them down.

I feel quite foolish right now because I let my back get sunburnt while out walking and now it's beginning to itch really badly; my skin goes from Celtic pale to lobster red with the smallest amount of 'encouragement'.

I'm getting really scared about uni now and it's still a month away. 'Scared' as in 'I'd do anything to not have to go' scared. But then even if I stayed here everyone else would move away so I have to start again nomatter what, and I'll love it when I settle down. But fuck, I don't want to leave. And before anyone says it'll be fine may I ask you if you had to move hundreds of miles away to a part of the country with a completely different culture even before you had to make new friends and learn your way around a new campus?

My sansa fuze has finally broken after something like 6 years so I've ordered a new one, well a refurbished one but all the reviews say it's like new. I'm anxious about that, but also worried because the delivery estimate is for the 26th. Happily I'll still be at home then but it's such a long way away DX
