(2) Pink Calculator Watch: i want this. but i’m determined not to buy anything online until christmastime. dammit!

(4) The Hype Machine: looking for a song but don’t want to stoop to using a P2P? use this site instead!

(5) News: Obama’s Letter Was Answer To A Little Boy’s Request: vote for obama, because he does really sweet things that other politicians won’t take time to do.

(7) Angels & Demons Trailer: OMG OMG OMG! remember a few years ago when i got obsessed with the davinci code movie? well i like angels & demons more than that book. so get ready.

(8) John Williams A Capella: this is amazing. that guy isn’t actually singing, but the music is awesome. so awesome i downloaded it.

(9) The House “scene”: same scene with some commentary at the start and alternate camera angles. if anyone knows the song playing, let me know what it is!

(10) Mean Sarah: my friend curls’ website!

haven’t done any random linkage posts in awhile, so here you go.

(1) Kermit and Christian Bale: Separated At Birth? a really hilarious/awesome/weird ONTD post.

(2) The Awesomer. “awesome stuff,” as their tagline states.

(3) i am neurotic. a collection of neuroses people send in. a few of mine have been on there, and one is currently on the homepage.

(4) FFFFOUND! image bookmarking. pretty much a collection of awesome images found across the interwebs, presented in a dynamic way that can keep you looking around the site for hours.

(5) (The Customer Is) Not Always Right. hilarious quotes from the workplace involving customers that aren’t exactly the brightest crayons in the box.

(6) The Abstract Art Titlegenerator. this can seriously be used for everything, and can be quite entertaining to reload over and over.

(7) File2HD. download any file from any site. i use it to yoink music on myspace pages that isn’t available for download.

the four latest things i have bookmarked, all which deal with harry potter. only twelve more days, my friends. twelve more days.

harry potter in stick figures (very funny)

the ‘this will totally happen in deathly hallows, trufax’ meme

discussion on a quote from book six (makes my heart hurt every time)

“goodbye, harry” — from stephen king’s column in entertainment weekly (note the part when he mentions that kids that are now 18 grew up with harry potter, because that’s describing me to a tee right there)

so i think you’re going to have to wait for the weekend for the posts about the past weekend. sorry about that.

i have decided that i’m not going to post every day anymore. basically, i’m trying to get ready for college life by starting good habits (i actually make my bed now, it’s crazy). having “posting on my blog” on my priorities list isn’t very beneficial for me, so i’m chucking that. i’ll post often though, but only when i have something to say. but who knows, i might keep posting every day anyway : )

i’m almost done with my multi-lit project. i just have to do a rewrite/proofwrite of my critical lens essay, and do the “creative portion.” tomorrow i’m going to ask my teacher if making a website would be an acceptable project for this section, because i’m having problems thinking of something i can do for it that i’m actually good at.

ETA: LOLBOTS!

two more days…

this was the winning video at ham jam. is it not hilarious?

also, be sure to watch the pirates of the caribbean: at world’s end trailer.

yikes, i’m stressed out (which is silly, for i am a second semester senior) because of all this makeup work i have to do due to the trip. i was going to do some tonight, but that thing happened where my room was messy and i had to spend an hour cleaning, and it’s 11.

Google Messenger- 1:35 PM

Lizzie: fool
I’m still hungary
me: foo’
you are still a country in europe?
Lizzie: yes
yes i am

ETA: is this flickr photoset not the coolest photo effect you’ve ever seen?

ETA2: i sort of learned how to play pokemon (the card game) today. actually, i sort of learned how to agree with the 2nd grader sitting on my lap when he told me which card/attack to use. so that was fun.

i solved my rubik’s cube a few times today. by best time was 5 minutes and 30 seconds (recorded it on my camera), which doesn’t seem to bad to me. i’m trying to memorize the notations, i keep having to peek at my post-it note for the third and fifth steps.

no school today, but i did have work, and that was nice, but nothing to write home about.

oh, and the best office video around.

UM YES, GOOGLE KNOWS ALL: 42.

so, about that econ test. yeah.

today as i was reading highlights for kids, sitting on the counter at brighton rec. waiting to be picked up (for all the kids were gone by then), my mom and sister walk in with, check this, a microwave (!). how super cool is that? i had mentioned to my mother that i hated dealing with children in the kitchen as we popped (or burned) their popcorn in the broken microwave, and then i explained an idea that tom had, to get a microwave for the after school program in our room. so when she was out craigslistin’, she managed to get someone to donate one (although it is missing the turning plate thing, but i went to big lots and got a plate for 50 cents). this solves many problems.

i think i’m doing good at brighton rec. i reformed the gym game system, got heelies banned from the gymnasium, organized and inflated all the playground balls and basketballs, attached a lanyard and a whistle to the ball closet key, made the gymnastics area safer by saying that mats were no longer to be placed underneath the basketball hoop, and now this. a few weeks ago i made the rule that kids weren’t allowed in the kitchen, because they were too loud and distruptive to the rest of the building. so one counselor would collect all the bags after the kids wrote their names on it, and they would go to the kitchen and pop them all, this meant one counselor was gone for about 20 minutes, increasing the ratio of children to counselors. this will be much better.

stumbled upon this site, how to tick people off. my favourite is number 11, “finish all your sentences with the words ‘in accordance with prophesy.’”

so i spent most of today bumming around. i had 4 frees (see my flickr photos for more info.) and no homework to do, so i did the jumble, some sudoku, watched some movies on the ‘pod, et cetera. and i didn’t have work today, so i got home early and watched like fourteen billion episodes of scrubs, including last night’s which i had to tape because i had so much econ homework (and i’m super excited for next weeks episode, as it will be a musical).

i’m a little upset because i want to iconize, but last night’s episode still isn’t up on itunes.

when i move out, i want to make this wallpaper in my new room. perhaps with some genius pads though.
