12:34 pm - A Lament and lasting memory
|
This past weekend, two new additions were made to the family of ferrets I look after. They were two kits from a petstore that seem more playful than Loki ever was. There was some tiny problems getting them acclaimated with the other three (Loki, Thor, and Odin), but that all ended quickly. We've always been very lucky with introducing new ferrets in the house.
However, come Monday when rent is due in a week along with other bills, we realized after just purchasing a new bag of food and water for everyone and having it almost gone after the weekend, that trying to feed two tiny black holes ontop of three gigantic black holes is nigh impossible. Especially when bedding is $25/bag, water $6 per 24-pack, good food $15 per 4.4lbs bag, litter $15, visits to the vets coming in at $32.80 per fuzzie not including shots, and toys always over $20 each.
We took Tyr and Freya into our household knowing that it would tighten us a lot financially but as long as we didn't do too many other things, such as buy video games or eat out constantly, it would work. But now we realize that ontop of vet bills for five ferrets, and food plus everything else, it is impossible on this budget to keep them.
It breaks my heart to bring them back to the store. I don't want to, it'll be one of the hardest things I've ever done (up there with leaving Nick at the airport in Baltimore and New Hampshire)...but I also know that with the budget as it is right now, I'd wind up paying credit cards with other credit cards. I don't want to get back in that cycle.
So it is with a heavy heart that Freya and Tyr will return to the store. I hope someone will take as good of care of them as we did, and love them even more so that their little fuzzy hearts can mend. I'm not sure they've been here long enough to really bond to anyone, besides Tyr. Tyr seems to love everyone and shows his affection by chomping ears, even us humans. I know I'm gonna need a while to mend my broken fuzzy heart. It had all seemed possible and absolutely failsafe. But it seems that no matter how much planning you do, some things never work out.
I'll always remember tiny Tyr and Freya, and wish that we had been able to keep them. I keep telling myself if I can get a part time job, we can go back and reclaim our lost babies. They're more than just pets, or things to barter with. They're living breathing creatures that have souls and hearts of their own. I imagine people that have gone through the adoption process know what it's like. Even though they're smaller, furrier, and walk on four legs instead of two, they are my children and I love all of them very much. I know that Odin, Thor, and Loki will miss their little bodies running around and chasing them in their own way.
I've carried on long enough, and I know that not many people read this anymore, but I just needed something to write to, to get all of my sadness out of through.
current mood:  Broken hearted

1:25 am - Boredom II: Revenge of the Caffiene Pill
|
Well I can't sleep and after catching up on Nick's LJ (I admit I read it in a lump sum about once or twice a week) from not having the internet for almost three weeks, I decided to take the quiz thingy that he had.
On another note, I actually wrote! For the first time in almost six years I wrote more than two paragraphs...21 pages of text. I was rather proud of myself...But pride is the sin that plagues me now. I was happy to be writing that now I cannot write anymore. I think I'll turn off the modem in the next few days so I can't be distracted by it. Anyway...The quiz thingy!
Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.
Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.
The seriousness of your love:
You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.
Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.
The right job for you:
You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.
How do you view success:
You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.
What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.
Who is your true self:
You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.
current mood:  Wisdom tooth >__

heh Writing via the laptop. Tyler's grandfather Tom let me have a laptop so that I can connect to the internet in my bedroom along with write in peace. All though I'm sure this isn't the writing I had intended to do, it's at least a start.
As I said before I'm down in Georgia (for anyone that's actually still reading this) and I have a baby ferret named Loki. He is proving a lovely little task to take care of. He's a human baby, a kitten, and a puppy all wrapped into one tiny little fuzzball. But he's cute so he's forgivable.
The only person that would really read this is the person I talk to on a daily basis, and that's Nick. So I dont' really know why I was even gonna bother posting but just something in my head told me to post an update letting anyone else that reads this know that I'm alive. I've been better, but considering the path I've walked down the past few months, I can't say much of anything different. Except for little Loki. I walked down the path all by myself so it's not anyone else's fault but my own...But maybe someday my luck will change. When I wake up and smell the flowers for the first time and open my eyes and look deep inside and realize what I really want to do with my life. But I'm sure everyone waits for such an epiphany even longer than I have been waiting for my own. Maybe I should try the lottery. I might have better luck there.

3:08 pm - Stolen from Nick

First time I've updated in a long time but I was just curious about the quiz that Nick had on his thing so of course I took it. Maybe I'll make a post later about what I've been doing lately but I probalby won't. Needless to say I'm in Georgia taking care of a wonderful baby ferret named Loki.

This isn't an overview of the con just yet, but I thought I'd stick a little note in to say I went to a con over the weekend. It was fun I guess. It was St. Louis' first anime-ish convention, so can't be too rough on em. The biggest problem over the weekend, aside from having to drive a total of four hours each day (it's almost a two hour drive there), was all the little ones. Normally I've sort of derived that a con is a place where older teenagers and 20somethings can get away from highschoolers for a while. Not so much. I think out of the entire con, there might have been -maybe- a dozen or so over the age of 20.
But oh well. I competed in my first cosplay/masquerade by showing off my costume I made about a year ago of Miaka Yuki. I accidentally said Miaka Hongo...which is taking the last name of Yui and putting it on Miaka's name...but only one girl corrected me after the show so that wasn't so bad. I got Best Tailoring, which translates into best made. I was happy. And with that I'm getting off here and going back to bed.

12:16 pm - Notebook Entries
|
Recently I've not had much of an opportunity to be on the computer without someone staring over my shoulder watching everything that I type. But I have written some ramblings in my little notebook that I have. They're not really relivant to anything or specifically mean anything--but that is the essence and nature of rambling, isn't it? Anyway...The next few entries will be my random thoughts and wonderings about the world and my perspective of it...such as it is.
One person's worth is very minute and inconsequential in the grand scheme of things. It is not about the life itself but whatis done with that life that truly matters. America is supposed to be the land of opportunity but in the end there is the same glass ceiling for everyone that does not posess a six-digit income or higher. THe world revolves around in a delicate waltz of who you know. If you chose the right dance partner, you can move up the social ladder. THe same social pracitces have been in practice since before Christ was even born and will likely continue until humanity as a society perishes as it is.
So what on earth could one small life that brings nothing but misery to those around it possibly do to have some resemblence of worth? Is it even possible for such a desire? Or is it a vain hope?
Life is supposedly sacred, but what makes a human life so much different from that of a deer or a cat besides the ability to speak? Humanity as a whole is flawed but should they be punished or forgiven for being as such?
current mood:  Controllers suck

Okay so I stole the test from Nick again...I just wanted to see since I was intrigued at him getting Goth....I can't picture him being goth at all. Things are going from day today as of right now, not much to report...My fingers hurt constantly from my work at the seamstress' shop that I started working at. She is constantly annoyed with me because I botch things on the sewing machine so much...It's a machine that's from about 1970-ish and I try very hard not to harm it but it always gums up on me. So I've been demoted to hand sewing things on and ripping seams. I am supposed to be learning, since it's an apprenticeship technically...but the only thing I've learned is that Electrolux is apparently the best vaccum to use.
Anyway....here's the test!
YAAAAY! I made Highlander!! The mighty quiz thingy has spoken....I am Chandra MacLeod of the clan MacLeod, I was born in 1392 on the Isle of Brittania. I am Immortal and I cannot die.

What is your Alignment?

D:Your Beauty lies in Intelligence. Logical, wise and a book-worm. You have a mature beauty and look that shows how smart you are. You rely solely on your logic to solve all your or anyone else's problems, which is a bit of a two-sided coin. The fact makes you seem rather emotionless and cold to some people. Not everything can be solved with logic. Despite it, many come to you for advice and love how smart you are, wondering if there is anything you don't know.
You probably don't wear much make-up as it distracts you from your studies, but you may wear a pair of glasses just because you like how you look in them, whether you need them or not. For the most part, your looks mean little to you, which makes all the more attractive, especially when you're concentrated or something. Good for you. Now

Wow...heh it seems that my journal thingy is turning into a stereotypical LiveJornal full of all the depressed thoughts and ideas that seem to plague the teenaged youth of today. "Oh I gotta get up, oh I gotta take classes...Life is hard man!" Yeah...I can feel for Foamy when it comes to that. Want to kill whoever is thinking that...but yet my journal still is filled with useless and mindless jabber about nothing that is not important to really anyone. Ah well.
There's a question that all people wonder some point in their lives...What exactly is my purpose on this planet...And I've been wondering mine for a good long while. I don't know where I belong, of course I don't know where the milk belongs half the time so how on earth could I be expected to know what road to take for my life when I can barely handle simple groceries? My computer's broken at the moment, and I need to get it repaired but sadly that will have to wait for another day.
A person's duty in life is miniscule and insignificant in the grand scheme of things. No one person is truly any more important than the other's. It's amazing that while this statement is true, there's always the flip side of that coin. Life is precious, yet at the same time meaningless. It's the most wonderful gift in the world, yet it is a boring and mundane routine that many wish to escape. If this wasn't true, how on earth could Disney World exist? Life in and of itself is such a vast and complex thing that no possible person could ever define it unless using a biological term. But even a biological term is more complex than it moves and breeds.
Bah I dunno...lost train of thought...Krog vocab no work. Will fix at later date.
current mood:  Want to go away

Life always has a habit of turning surreal at the most odd moments. I was here last winter in Illinois, but I didn't find the snow too odd. The fact that I can look outside and watch rain fall and see lightning flicker is a new experience for me. I'm not used to, ya know, thunderstorms on frickin January 2nd. I was born in New England, which is another phrase for "you no see ground until April" because of all the snow you start getting in October. Then I lived in Indiana and it was a bit more mild there....The snow would be gone by mid March normally. There was maybe three inches of snow total that lasted only maybe four days at the most.
I've not been feeling too good as of late--of course I could be told there are reasons to it...but I don't want to ramble about how I should take medicine. There's enough addicts in the country, I don't need to add to the list. But this evening not even a half hour ago I felt even worse...You know how when you marry someone, you get a ring and they get one too? Well I received a ring from Tyler...and not even a month after having it...barely even two weeks...a diamond has fallen off of it. I was so upset. It was not a cheapo ring bought at the local Five-and-dime store...I count on Kay Jewelers for all of my jewelry needs (which has included gifts for others...I don't buy myself jewelry unless they're cute earrings), but now I don't know what to think since it hasn't even lasted two weeks and *bam* it's broken. Honestly.
Oh well...No more organized thought processes for now. The cheese tastes good to Adolf Hitler's dog Skip!
current mood:  ARGH! >_

So yeah I stole the little thingy that Ickle Fuyu has on his little journal, and I got Stephen King. He got hentai. While I think Stephen King is all well and a great author, as I told Ickle Fuyu, that's like asking a math question and getting hot dog. o.O Anyway here it is.
current mood:  Stephen King= love?

8:49 am - Celebrating Stupidity One Person At a Time
|
So there's a really annoying person on Yahoo that I used to talk to...or well mostly point out how stupid he was being. If this says anything, the guy plays as female characters on Yahoo! Chat. I don't really understand why I even bother with Yahoo in the first place anymore, but that's besides the point. Here's a nice list of the conversation I was having with him. heh Here's a real #1 winner, let me tell you right now. I think Nick is the only one that really has any idea of the previous conversation with the village idiot, but it's just something you can't really pass up. I mean I can understand getting the dates mixed up a little bit...but 3-4 years ago? That's a bit much...But it's almost forgivable except for every stinking time this person talks to me, he does this with random anime. With Eva, I gave him misinformation that was completely wrong, and then asked who Shinji Ikari was. His response? Something like "Well it's been a long time since I've seen it and I can't remember the minor characters so well..." =.=
Galaxia: How do you like DN Angel?
Person: I saw the entire series years ago
Galaxia: ...

Person: for me anyway
Person: anyway
current mood: stupid people >

12:54 pm - Krog Smash!
|
Well the holiday is over, as most people are talking about. I received a ring as my Christmas present from Tyler...but I also got a Menchi plushie from Nick along with Castle in the Sky. Menchi is adorable (if you don't know who Menchi is, I suggest watching Excel saga) and I can just hear him barking the end song and being dotted with salt as he barks. He looks exactly like Menchi does in the series almost. hehe I almost cried when I first saw him it's that close.
Anyway...That's about all to report on Christmas at least on my side...There were a few other things but no real interesting tidbits. However after the third failed attempt to go see Meet the Fockers, I finally managed to do so. This movie is hilarious and is definitely a movie to see if you enjoyed Meet the Parents. There are some parts that are so horribly wrong...like knowing where the boundary line is for vulgarness, and breaking past it with due speed so it's onto the next continent bad...but it's hilarious.
I think that's really all I wanna post at this time...But I think I'd like to add one more thing. It's a quote I saw yesterday at the movie theatre on those pre-show slides that they have. It said something along the lines of "Once you find true love, the trick is keeping it." How very true that is...It's almost easy to fall in love if you let yourself...If you don't it's a bit harder, and when you think you've found that true love, the hardest part of it all is keeping that happiness and love alive no matter how short or long a relationship it winds up being. Nothing lasts forever, or at least it doesn't seem to in the end...But to truly believe in forever...is that a fool's quest or the smartest person's ideal in the world? The one that truly believes in forever will in the end be the happiest...but at what cost?
There I go being philosophical again. Oopsy. ^^; Ah well I'm gonna wrap this up. Ja ne!~ ^^
current mood:  mind need to stop working

Well this is my first time using the LiveJournal thingy. But since a good friend moved from OpenDiary to here, I also did so. His anime club is on here and it seemed silly for him to continue posting on the OD when it would be just as easy for me to post here.
Right now I'm in one of the philosophical moods that I get in every once in a while. It's not helping that I am watching Hamlet at the moment. I wonder about the value of humanity and life itself every so often, wondering what makes one life different from all of the others. In the grand scheme of things, one life generally does not effect all of humanity. The average human's existence is not life shattering and of the utmost importance to the world. Though we as a human collective believe that our own individual existence is ground shattering and important. I admire humanity but at the same time wonder about it, as well as wonder about my ownself as every human being does at some times.
But getting off the subject of philosophy and my convoluted spin on it, I prefer to think mainly about random facts. History is always a fascinating subject. As is anime, which is a much lighter subject than dark philosophy.
I have recently watched the first two episodes of a show called D.N. Angel. It is pretty good, as far as new anime goes. It's got the stereotypical bishonen with wings, and the plot is that he's the reincarnation of the Phantom Theif. It is most interesting to say the least. Anyone that is an anime fan should watch it.
current mood:  too thoughtful for own good
