Let's make this our story....

Stolen from </a></b></a>life_of_amesu

1. Open your music library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc.).
2. Put it on shuffle and press play.
3. For every question, type the song that's playing. When you go to a new question, go to the next song.
4. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool.


Waking up: "Higitus Figitus" - Sword in the Stone
Wow... that would produce some very interesting dreams...

Falling in Love: "This is Neverland" - Finding Neverland
In an odd way it works.

Fight Song: "La cour des miracles" - Notre Dame de Paris
It works... in an "I'm pissed off and going to bite someone's head off" kind of way

Breaking Up: "Stripped pt 2" - Christina Aguilera
"Sorry if I ain't perfect/ Sorry I don't give a f****/ Sorry I ain't a diva/ Sorry I know just what I want..."

Prom: "Everything" - Lifehouse
More of an "I'll love you till the end of time" song but that works too.

Life is Good: "Oo-De-Lally" - Robin Hood (Disney Version)
O.O Oh wow.

Mental Breakdown: "Remember" - Ten Mile Tide
Yeah, so does not work

Driving: "Unwritten" - Natasha  Bedingfield
That could cause problems... this song always makes me want to dance.

Flashback: "The Trapeze Swinger" - Iron & Wine
I wasn't aware I even had this song

Getting Back Together: "The Origin Of Love" - Hedwig and the Angry Inch
It works... in an odd way.

Wedding: "Cruel To Be Kind" - Nick Lowe
It works. I swear it does. Go watch the music video

Night Before the War: "Do-Re-Mi" - The Sound of Music
So does not work

Final Battle: "Away From Me" - Evanescence
Yeah, no.

Moment of Triumph: "Look After You" - The Fray
Yeah no

Death Scene: "Jillian (I'd Give My Heart)" - Within Temptation
In an odd way, yes.

Funeral Song: "Dare You to Move" - Switchfoot
::sob::

End credits: "I Should Tell You" Rent
Doesn't work

Wow, that was interesting...

Yeah... I needed to keep my mind off of certain things--so I stole Kaitlyn's layout. ::ducks::

I have a question for all you people who friend-lock your journals: is there a certain way you're supposed to do it or am I just not getting it?

I am a fool and a bloody idiot. And there are way too many people around when they're not needed. But hopefully I manage on Tuesday.

::le sigh::

This is what Erin wants for her birthday: shinny object. However the price makes her curl up in a ball and whimper. If anyone's contemplating birthday and christmas presents, contributions to the "Erin-is-sick-of-not-understanding-what-is-being-said-around-her-and-is-therefore-going-to-learn-to-understand-what-these-people-are-saying" fund would make her love people forever and result in... she isn't quite sure what yet, but there would be significant happiness inducing things.... if that makes sense.

::stares longingly::

Edit: Erin has found a different version that is cheaper. Il est here.

Erin hasn't finished her essays yet... so now Erin is in panic mode. She also had to get up at 6 to go to work today instead of the usual 9... so she is very tired. Neither of those two go well together... ::le sigh::

::wanders off to do essays::

It's HERE!!! And it's AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

::Wanders off to go write fanfics and hide from Sara::

Whose seen the OotP yet!!! ::dies::

The fight scene  is WONDERFUL!!! And Lucius Malfoy is soooooo yummy in his suit and his Death Eater costume! ::faints::

6 days until the 21st!!!!!

I thought the title was appropriate because... *drum roll, please*.... (those of you who went to facebook first: don't ruin it for everyone else).... Erin is...


GOING TO

 DISNEYLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The wonderful results of my boredom in Geometry summer school:

Morceaux de moi

I'll be just fine pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely and it's all that I've got
Cause I'm your little remedy, if you show me now
I'm your little remedy if you take me now.
And life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think every thing's fine and every thing's going right.

But it's all right why don't you tell me again
How you'll still be there when the heartache ends
Life has a funny way of helping you out
When you think every thing's gone wrong
And every thing blows up in your face.

I'll be just fine pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely and it's all that I've got
It's all that I've--
It's all that I've got.

So dreams last for so long, even after you're gone
And the sun may go up, and the sun may go down
But will you still be there when the heartache ends?

How will you be here when the heartache ends?
Will you still be here when the heartache ends?
How you'll still be here when the heartache ends.

Say you'll be with me when the heartache ends.

So there's this French musical called Le Roi Soleil that's about Luis XIV that is the most wonderful thing ever. Extremely shiny and very squee worthy. I have both the highlights and the full cast recording thanks to Elenna *bows down and worships* but it's also on DVD and I can't find it ANYWHERE!!! They have it in France, they have it on the European version of Amazon. But do they have it in the United States? No. Of course not. Because it's apparently the-world-hates-Erin-and-is-going-to-mock-her-mercilessly month.*dies of agony* I know understand Sara's pain when she finds a new pairing that  has a non-existant fandom. *whimpers*

I want! I want! I want And I am definetly going to have to find some way to teleport to France now so I can get it.

*stalks off to return to hunting*

*Hands out cake, cookies, and cupcakes to all and shirtless Napoleon to Sara as well*

Happy Birthday, my dear. You're now one more year closer to being legal! Or... you would be if you were a citizen... but we can pretend right? :)

Loves,
Me

Respond to this post and I will....
1. Tell you why I friended you
2. Associate you with a movie/song
3. Tell a random fact about you
4. Tell a first memory about you
5. Associate an animal/fruit with you
6. Ask something I have always wanted to know about you
7. In response you MUST spread this disease on LJ

There are currently two different voices whispering in the back of my head and neither of them are helping much: one is the cynical, annoying me that's saying don't bother; then there's the other, smaller part of me that's saying that I need to get hooked on lj again. We'll see who wins; right now it's the underdog. Go underdog!

As I've had this livejournal since I got bored over last summer and then just forgot about it and it's just been sitting around doing nothing, I've decided to put it to use. I also had a rather interesting conversation with my mother couple weeks ago that has had me thinking ever since. As a result of that conversation I have come to this conclusion: I do not want to be like my father. At all. So to rectify this it is going to become my mission over the summer (and for however long after that it might take) to change that. In order to accomplish that I am asking for your help; feel free to bitch, scream, slap, and anything else you deem prudent to help me accomplish this goal (something is telling me that I might regret this invitation later).

First order of business: my current moral/ethical/emotional dilemma. Is it wrong to go out with someone that you kind of like/are slightly interested it when you really, really, really like someone else but you have about a shot in hell of him liking you back? What do you do and how does that work?


Other than that my summer at home has been thoroughly uneventful. It's been me on the couch watching NCIS S1-3 continuously and eating whatever we have in the house. Oh! I finally went back to my martial arts class after not showing up for three months and I'm a lot less sore than I though I would be. And I'm not dead, both of which are beneficial. I also went to go get my work permit renewal form today and the woman there told me that I needed to have the entire thing filled out, like it was my first one, because since I don't go to Willow Glenn High they don't have it on record. *grumbles vaguely in her direction* The British woman needs to come back. I have no idea where she went, but she needs to come back because she's easier to work with.

Speaking of work, that reminds me of two wonderfully annoying stories that I'm sure you'll find amusing... mainly at my expense *rolls eyes and sticks out tongue*. Anyway, during my break I was at Baskin Robbins on an ice cream run for some of my colleagues because I'm just that nice and while I'm waiting for my order... actually this started as soon as I walked in... this random guy I've never seen in my life (I'm almost positive you know what's coming next) asks me what nationality I am (ha! fooled you!). I told him, smiled, told the girl behind the counter what I wanted, and moved on (keep in mind I had my headphones on too, so some of this I'm going on what I think he said). The guy follows and keeps hitting on me the entire time, he also had, I think it was, his niece or the like in his arms so I couldn't really tell him to f**** off. One thing follows the other and he now has my cell number. *rolls eyes and buries head in arms* Mleh. The only good thing is that he hasn't called me yet. Key word being "yet".

Second story! So for those of you who don't know, I work at Trader Joe's, and there's a lot more to the store than just what you see when you come in for your shopping. Anyway, the truck with the evening order comes anywhere from around 4 to around 6, and when the truck comes we unload what's in it and load various things that came in the morning load that we're done with/don't need anymore. So all this stuff comes in pallets which are broken down and separated by aisle which is then taken out into the store to be put on the shelves, that's called pulling something. I was pulling water, Crystal Geyser, Pelligrino, Smart Water and all that stuff, and doing a good job at it when a case of... I have no idea what it's called fell over and a bottle shattered. Not too big a deal, right? Well everyone else loved it. *rolls eyes* I wasn't annoyed with them... at least not until one of the managers pulls me off water saying that he has something for me to do that I won't break *mutters* and shows me this flat cart that's loaded to almost two times my height with vitamins and various health products. A) anyone whose been to Trader Joe's Almaden should know were the vitamin section is and why I would hate stocking them, b) that flat cart wasn't supposed to go out until after the store closed, which is why it was stacked so high, c) those flat carts are impossible to wheel in a straight line. So I'm trying to take it out, already annoyed with said manager, but the aisle was packed at my end and I take it down another aisle that has almost no one else in it except for Patrick (no I am not mentioning him just for the sake of mentioning him, he has a point in this story, I swear he does).

As I was attempting to turn the corner one of the stacks on the end takes a nose dive on to the floor which in and of itself shouldn't have been a big deal, but again: the flat cart wasn't supposed to go out until the store closed. And as my luck would have it, there was a case of flax seed oil near the top of that stack that shattered when it hit the floor. Now there's flax seed oil everywhere and to keep it from spreading Patrick grabs the case and runs outside with it, all while cursing said manager under his breath (making me feel ten times better). My hands still smell like flax seed >.< .

Was there a point to that story? No not really. It just gives Kaitlyn another thing to laugh at me over and me a place to rant about Firooz (the manager that annoyed me). I'm not mad at him anymore, he amuses me too much. And I get to say that Patrick makes me happy to no end.

And now I'm off to go watch more NCIS... unless someone wants to call me and save me from my boredom?

Namarï.

P.S. My hands still smell like flax seed.

P.P.S. I have the strongest urge to see Spring Awakening.
