I am finally going through another Homestar Runner phase. I needed something to balance the wrestling craze out, I guess, and when my connection got disconnected due to a storm a few nights ago, I sat down and watched some strongbad_email.exe DVDs. I was pretty much hooked from there. I am amazed that the site still hasn't lost its touch. H*R truly is a gem of the internet.

I'm an avid NIN fan, as most of you know, and Trent Reznor's ending NIN sometime in the near future. Something occurred to me all of the sudden: I may never get to see them live at this point. So I looked to see if they were touring anywhere near my area, and...they weren't. But! One place they'll be in is Los Angeles, and my dad's job actually allows him to have an expenses-paid trip there, so if we can get tickets early, we may get a chance to fly out and see them. I think I can call myself a pretty dedicated fan if that happens, so wish me luck!

I feel like my entries are becoming increasingly boring. I only used two exclamation marks :( Well, that's pretty much how I speak IRL. Deadpan voice unless I'm jabbering about one of my obsessions. Here, I'll compensate:

Leave me a comment and I will give you a letter. Then, write 10 things that you love starting with that letter. Post the list in your journal. Give out letters to your commenters in return.

[info]sapphire_llama gave me G. It was harder than I thought it'd be.


01. Gurren Lagann - obvious choice. My favorite anime to date.
02. Gayness - I love gays in the same way that guys love lesbians. Except I love lesbians too...moving on
03. Green Hill Zone.
04. Geddup noise.
05. Gamma Ray - power metal band I found just a few days ago. I'm very picky about the genre, but I'm likin' their stuff so far.
06. Gelbooru - not as much content as Danbooru, but a better search engine.
07. Geeking out over things in general.
08. Going through old pictures. I can't believe how much Cid/Vincent doujinshi I had!
09. Grilled chicken.
10. Game music of any kind, especially that of Sonic, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, and Disgaea.

Does anybody else get a little melancholy listening to Scrap Brain Zone? Not just from nostalgia, but from the track itself? It sounds strangely...sad. Or something.

I have a feeling my summer break's sort of over now. I really need to crack down on my reading now, not to mention learn how to drive. I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE HELP SOMEBODY

I saw Transformers 2 a few days ago. I never saw the first one; the only reason I went was to become reacquainted with my friends. The movie had a satisfying number of explosions, so I'm not complaining. Afterward we all ate at Panera together, and I got a horribly painful stomachache a few hours later. ...Other than that, I had a good day. |D

Sometime this week I'm probably going to see Public Enemies with a friend. The story itself sounds interesting, but the initial reason I chose the movie was because of Depp's presence. And not just Depp, Depp in a suit. Swoon. That man does not age.

I just realized it's July! Time to flip to the fanservicey picture of Nia and Yoko in swimsuits on my calendar. Hopefully I will not receive any suspicious glares from my mom.

Whoops, forgot to wish Sonic a happy birthday yesterday. Happy belated birthday and congrats on being legal! I decked out in my Sonic gear to celebrate and replayed some SA2. ♥ Knuckles's dub voice sounds so uncharacteristically chill, but I've always kind of liked it.

I finally got around to renting and watching The Wrestler, and I loved it. It presented a story that didn't force you to feel a certain way about it. I hate when movies feel like they're trying too hard to make the audience react in a certain way, so that alone made it good. I understand why everyone was raving about Mickey Rourke now; he really carried the entire movie. My sister loved it too, apparently...I wonder if she understood any of the wrestling terminology.

I think I've finally, finally found a forum that I fit into again. Yeah, you guessed it, it's a wrestling forum. For the first time since PPGWorld, I actually feel like I'm part of a community. I've started to recognize members and ease into the place better over the few weeks I've been there. Nothing will ever replace PPGWorld, but out of the hundreds of forums I've joined ever since it went down, this is the first one where I've made more than 5 posts. Hell, I've made over 100 now. So I'm pretty happy about that. I'm not crying, I just have something in my eye...

Happy Father's Day! Just went to a nice Mexican restaurant with the family...I had a taco. T'was good. The waiter called me señorita. ヽ (´ー`)

Two days 'til Sonic's birthday!

I need a new layout...or at least an edited version of this one. Getting sort of sick of it, and it *still* bothers me that the text isn't aligned with the placement of the icon. I still can't figure out how to fix that.

I'd love a layout similar to [info]captaincharisma's, but even after looking at the stylesheet for the layout it apparently uses, I'm not even sure where to start...hmmm.

But the point is, it has the aligned text thing!!1 (this line will probably be the one moved over to the left, grrrr)

I finished the ACTs for the second time this morning! No more standardized tests 'til senior year now. I need to get started on my summer reading sometime at the end of the month...and sell newspaper ads.

Hrrrg...I want to make icons, but I'm in a bit of a creative slump right now. I need more WWE-related icons; the only ones I have saved are the ones by [info]rory_tutorgirl. They're great, but I feel like I should have at least one I made too...

What else, what else. Excited about next week's Raw even though I am 99.4% sure HHH is going to win the Fatal 4-Way. I wish Swagger were in the ECW match (Dreamer bores me to death), but alas. Christian can probably still carry it pretty well. I'd love to Jeff to get his championship back, but I have a feeling Punk's gonna retain for some reason. He better turn heel soon. He was way too nice last night; I wanted him to be a jerk, but instead he was all "well I have nothing against you bro, I was just being smart...:3" Nonetheless, Smackdown >>>>>>>> Raw. Still. Hell, ECW >>>>>> Raw too now. >:

good god I need to get over this obsession

Just saw Up a little while ago with my mom.

I got choked up three times, once within the first 15-20 minutes of the movie. Pixar, this is what you do to me.

Just watched Welcome to the Dollhouse after renting it on a whim...

...wow. What a depressingly accurate movie. I think it hit a little too close to home for me at times.

I liked it, though.
