Meme, snagged from sugah66   . Is it a little strange that hers is the only LJ i only read on a semi-regular basis? *blink*

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 37 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like the game post your own.

Merry Christmas, everyone!! :)

Because I'm watching TV...I have no school tomorrow, and I can stay up as late as I want. :P Snagged from sugah66.

2. I'll ask you five questions in response, so that I'll get to know you better.
3. Answer my questions at your personal LJ.
4. Keep the thing going by explaining the rules, asking and answering.

 sugah66 asked me these...

Survey snatched from sugah66 because I'm bored.

If there are one or more people on your friends list who make your world a better place just because they exist, and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

For everyone...I love you guys. :) I know I haven't been around the forums (TV.com or DLC) or LJ a lot, but know that you guys are still my friends and I miss you. :)

*squee*
*SQUEE*
*SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!*

Heh. I probably don't have anything at all remotely rational to say as I watch this...

Comments and smart-ass remarks on tonight's episode. ^__^ I'm writing this as I watch the episode so if I make a comment that seems completely obvious after you've seen the whole episode, forgive me. :)

Yuck. I have to go back to school tomorrow. I haven't had any actually classes since almost 2 weeks. I love getting a whole week off to put together our play performance, but it completely throws everything off. I now have 3 papers to work on, a passage from Chaucer to memorize before spring break, research to do for my trip to Australia, and not to mention all this other stuff!

Other stuff meaning guy stuff. Typical, right? You start to fall for one of your guy friends and it's kind of weird because there are times when it seems obvious he may like you and there are times when it's completely the opposite. He just...he acts differently around me. And that's when it's just me. With other girls it's totally different. And I don't know if it means anything or not.

*sigh*

On a slightly happier note, a couple of my friends and I went to the mall today just to try on dresses. The formal's not for another month or so. But I found a really cute black/pink dress that actually looked good on me. Maybe I'll post the picture somewhere. I really like it, I might actually get the dress for the formal. :)
And shoes. Shoes always cheer me up. I found THE cutest pair of silver strappy heel-sandals at Plato's Closet. For only $6. And, hey, if the shoe fits...buy an outfit to match. ;-)

I was bored...

Your Brain is Purple

Of all the brain types, yours is the most idealistic. You tend to think wild, amazing thoughts. Your dreams and fantasies are intense. Your thoughts are creative, inventive, and without boundaries. You tend to spend a lot of time thinking of fictional people and places - or a very different life for yourself.

What Your Soul Really Looks Like

You are very passionate and quite temperamental. While you can be moody, you always crave comfort. You are not a very grounded person. You prefer dreams to reality. For you, it's all about possibilities. You believe that people see you as larger than life and important. While this is true, they also think you're a bit full of yourself. Your near future is still unknown, and a little scary. You'll get through wild times - and you'll textually enjoy it. For you, love is all about caring and comfort. You couldn't fall in love with someone you didn't trust.

I don't so much agree with the "larger than life" part, but other than that, I'd say it's pretty close.

You Are Pretty Happy

You generally have a happy, fulfilling life. But things could be a little better, and deep down, you know it. Maybe you need more supportive friends or a more challenging career. Something is preventing you from being totally happy. You just need to figure out what it is!

I already know what "it" is. *sigh*

You Communicate With Your Ears

You love conversations, both as a listener and a talker. What people say is important to you, and you're often most affected by words, not actions. You love to hear complements from others. And when you're upset, you often talk to yourself. Music is very important to you. It's difficult to find you without your iPod.

Haha. Yeah. I do talk to myself. Ask my shampoo bottle. ^_^

Icons from 318, "Sleight Out of Hand." (or to quote Sugah, SQUEE FEST 2007!! *lol* )

TEASERS...
 

<< Amazing avatar by sugah66--it's not even 12 hours since the ep and she's already got avatars. She is my hero.

So. Sleight Out of Hand. Possibly THE best episode EVER. Eh, not possibly. THE BEST EPISODE EVER!!!! I jumped on my bed and screamed into pillows so much I was breathless, but then I STILL couldn't sleep. This episode was amazing.

<<Adorableful avatar by the amazing sugah66

Snagging the color quiz from elainhe  and the 90-question survey thing from jasminekpk

you are teal #008080

Your dominant hues are green and blue. You're smart and you know it, and want to use your power to help people and relate to others. Even though you tend to battle with yourself, you solve other people's conflicts well. Your saturation level is very high - you are all about getting things done. The world may think you work too hard but you have a lot to show for it, and it keeps you going. You shouldn't be afraid to lead people, because if you're doing it, it'll be done right. Your outlook on life can be bright or dark, depending on the situation. You are flexible and see things objectively.

Not bad. I thought I picked random things that didn't describe me all the time, but this came pretty close.

 And on with the survey...(I'm bored.)

Finally watching CSI from last night.

If this isn't my theme song today and for the past two months, I don't know WHAT is.

Vienna - by Billy Joel

Slow down, you crazy child
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
But then if you're so smart
Tell me, why are you still so afraid?

Where's the fire? What's the hurry about?
You better cool it off before you burn it out
You've got so much to do
And only so many hours in a day

But you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want
Or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
When will you realize Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you're doin' fine
You can't be everything you want to be before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight
Tonight

Too bad, but it's the life you lead
You're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong
You can't always see when you're right
You're right

You've got your passion, you've got your pride
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied?
Dream on but don't imagine they'll all come true
When will you realize Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you crazy child
Take the phone off the hook and disappear for a while
It's all right, you can afford to lose a day or two
When will you realize Vienna waits for you?

You know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
Why don't you realize Vienna waits for you?

When will you realize Vienna waits for you?

No school! w00t w00t! It's been raining here since about noon yesterday, and it's finally turning into ice today. They're also predicting it's gonna get worse as the day progresses, so just about everyone in the city/county is off school. YAY!

I decided one of THE most fun things to do is jump on my brother's bed. Seriously. I haven't had a spring mattress in, like, 3 years, and ever since my dad built me this captain's bed, whenever I stand up my head nearly touches the ceiling. Not the most ideal piece of furniture to be jumping on. XP So that leaves my bro's bed. And it makes me want to keep jumping until my legs collapse. *shrugs* *lol*

The ice/freezing rain stuff is starting to pile up outside to where it barely looks like snow. I sure hope it doesn't melt tonight or tomorrow, maybe we'll get another day off tomorrow. That'd be nice. :D

I think maybe I'll go write something now. Or read some more Phantom of the Opera. ^_^

I am so...tired. Worn down. I guess I've been feeling like this a lot. The workload at school is nuts. I've had three or four papers that have been assigned in the past two weeks...make that five, if you count my Greek project (even though it's not due till April). Add play lines needing to be memorized and work and Mock Trial and fundraising for both school stuff and my trip to Australia this summer...and you've got one very exhausted and stressed out Christina. *sigh*

This exhausted Christina is beginning to get sick of her muse, too. It keeps giving me great ideas for fanfics, and I can practically see them playing out in my mind. But it's hard to write them all down when any free time I do have is spent staring blankly at the TV putting off more homework or trying to sleep.

Believe it or not, though, I've started on the next chapter of "I Will Be There For You." (you can click here to read the first 3 chapters--but just so you know it has S3 spoilers.) I apologize to everyone who's waited so patiently for me to update. I really am sorry for making you wait so long...this funk I'm in has gone on longer than I expected. *lol* :P

I'd better go get some homework done. Ya think I can write a rough draft and an outline and read Chaucer before CSI is on in two hours? ^_~

This morning I looked at a container of cream cheese in our fridge and I swear it said "Body by Cream Cheese." I'm losing it.

I have 4 papers to work on today. And lines to memorize for my school play. So I don't think I'll watch the Super Bowl, even just for the commercials. You can find anything online now, and believe me, people love to put SB commercials online.

I was thinking about downloading Adobe Photoshop CS2 for Mac, so I could play around with some tutorials that Sugah sent me...but the download's gonna take 2+ hours. I guess I could download it while I work on one of my papers. Once I have Photoshop sitting in my Applications folder, though, the paper is forgotten and I spend the rest of the day playing around with avvies and banners. =P

BTW, for any people I know from TV.com, don't worry, it's me, CG. I just had to get a different user name because "citygirl129" was already taken.

Okay, well...ta-ta for now...

...I've got an LJ! I was bored...even though I have like 5 papers to write this week...so I got myself an LJ. I think this is gonna be for my TV.com friends...'cause I don't like posting on my blog there for some reason. ~_~

I feel really tired and depressed. I don't know. I'm listening to my Phantom of the Opera music now...somehow, it's not doing anything. Usually it does.
I know! I'll find all the songs we have on the M&Ms soundtrack and burn all of the 10 CDs (at least!) that we'll need for all those songs. :P D/L music would cheer me up...Ok, I guess I'll settle for my pathetic iTunes playlist instead. ~_~

So, that's all for now, kids...maybe tomorrow I'll actually have something good to say. *slightly amused*
