Ahahahahaha at school. "The PRETTIEST GIRL is in the STANG!!!"

Just so you know, the monitors here are HUGE, so the entire student population of OCC has now seen all of your entries. And SwimSlash!Icons.

Got out of math class a half an hour early, so I'm just wasting time before I go spend all of my money on a math book. Whee. I got my student ID card and I look like a complete gimp.

I also figured out the first half of my bus schedule. Downtown Syracuse is a funny place at seven in the morning. There was a man taking trash out of bag and throwing it against the sidewalk in a very concentrated way.

Now I just have to get back. I'll probably wind up in someplace ridiculous like Marcellus.

This weekend was alot of fun. Kate was up from Albany to do all her post-op doctor's appointments. We didn't do anything much- saw the Princess Diaries 2 with Tom, and watched about fifteen episodes of CSI. I got Kate hooked on that. So hooked that we dubbed our brownie recipe "Warrick's Gambling Problem/Contusion Brownies." (We had added chocolate chips; how very, very original.)

We also went to the archery range yesterday. We did pretty good for not really picking up a bow in about three years or so, trips to the Ren. Faire nonwithstanding. I lost one arrow and broke another, though.

I am not going to bitch about the Princess Diaries 2 in this entry, because no one but me cares that they got the fan movement meanings all wrong, or did the coronation backwards, or called people by the wrong things. I can't help it that I'm some kind of etiquette freak. I blame my mother. Breaches of etiquette aside, it was a great movie, especially if you haven't read the books, since the storyline is not the same AT ALL. It had great one liners- see subject, also: "I find my hello is insignificant," and "I'm a girl who loves to wear black wearing pink."

Speaking of awesome people named Lily, I had a dream with Anna in in last night. She and Jen got into a Shakespeare contest in the middle of my kitchen, and it was like an anime-crazy energy battle. Jen had you for a second, Ayako-chan, but then you did your Ophelia-going-mad thing and totally took her out.

In other news, Himeyuri means "Star Lily" or "Princess Lily." Just thought you'd like to know.

I would just like to pipe up and say that I was also extremely confused by the movie. As the credits rolled, I just sat there with Liz and went, "I don't know if I hate it or not. I don't know if I liked it or not. I don't know _what_ I feel." Liz and I had mainly two complaints. Complaint 1 was the part where Mia declared that she'd never been in love, completely invalidating the first movie. Complaint 2 was that they gave her a baby brother with the WRONG name. Either diverge from the plot completely or stay true to the plot points you do keep. *shakes head* It was a very bewildering day.

The way I see it, the movies and the books are just two stories that, coincidentally, have the same title and main character names. They have absolutely nothing else in common... I mean, come on. Like Mia would ever act like that. I love, love, love the books and this movie was nothing like them... even more so than the first. HELLO? WHERE IS THE SIDECAR SWILLING BITCH ON WHEELS GRANDMERE WE ALL KNOW AND LOVE?!?!?!?
