1) My laptop's tried to off itself.
2) I was halfway a conversation/roleplay on Steam. Because my friend got disconnected shortly before me, I think it's safe to assume neither of us saved the chatlog.
3) No Steam.
4) I'm seriously worried that this is gonna cost a lot of money or take absolutely ages to repair.
5) Or that they won't be able to repair it or rescue my files from it.
6) I have to snatch time on my mum's laptop. Very nice of her to let me on it I know, but she doesn't have a guest account and her browser saves the sites you go on.
7) On that topic, I can't work on the documents I had.
8) My mum seems to think that starting a conversation with "Now I'm not going to nag" twice, and ending twice with "I'm not going to bring [the laptop] up again" won't annoy the hell out of me.

Urgh. I've got no choice but to slug it out, and I have a pen and a notepad so I can still write, but I think I'm going to miss the ability to go on whatever sites I want and Steam the most.

PS: Title means "Fucking hell" but I didn't want to include swearing in the title. It's in French because everything sounds elegant in French.

EDIT

Well, looks like my laptop is up again! Pretty quickly too, what a relief.

For past and future reference, none of the preview images I've used here are by me. I currently have little artist talent and need to work on that.

Just so this isn't me basically chattering on about nothing, have a meme I've nicked from


Ten Things I Wish I Could Say to People:
1. “And I should care because...?”
2. “Leave me alone. Please.”
3. “I can hear you.”
4. “And I remember what you said.”
5. “What are you guys doing over the weekend? Can I come?”
6. “There’s no need to worry so much, you know.”
7. “...and that’s why I avoid you.”
8. “I know it’s meant to be a joke, but I’m starting to think it’s true.”
9. "Please don’t make out with your boyfriend in the front room. I don’t appreciate the view.”
10. “Do you know where I can buy a balisong?”

Nine things about myself:
1. The first video game I played was STH2 on my brothers Genesis.
2. I like watching other people play horror games but am too jumpy to play them at all well myself.
3. I don’t think my social skills are all that good.
4. I want to learn to do lots of things, like play a musical instrument (violin or flute would be nice).
5. When I get angry, I tear up. It’s very annoying.
6. When I think back on some of the things I’ve done, I get very embarrassed. So I try not to do that.
7. I daydream constantly.
8. I get my best ideas at inconvenient/awkward times.
9. I’m a middle child (one older brother, one younger sister)

Eight ways to win my heart:
Urm...I’ll tell ya when someone does it.

Seven things that cross my mind a lot:
1. ‘There’s more prose in my notebook than notes. This can’t be good.’
2. ‘Oh god I wrote THAT? How come nobody else has mentioned the flaws?’
3. ‘I should probably get a job’
4. *daydreaming*
5. Bloody hell, that’s the time??
6. I could say something...but I won’t.
7. People are weird.

Six things I do before I fall asleep:
1. Lay down to sleep
2. Get idea
3. Sit up, turn on light and put on glasses
4. Scribble down idea on nearby notepad
5. Put everything away and lay down again
6. Curl up

Five places I want to visit (in no particular order):
1. Australia
2. Italy
3. Russia
4. Tanzania
5. Massachusetts (there are several states I want to check out but this one I’m pretty curious about)

Four things I'm wearing right now:
1. Purple socks
2. White long sleeve top
3. Light blue t-shirt
4. Navy jeans

Three bands that I listen to often:
1. Pendulum
2. Video Game Soundtracks (doesn’t count but whatever)
3. Marmaduke Duke

Two things I want to do before I die:
1. Travel the world
2. Find some meaning

Aside from that, not much has really happened. I tried using GMod but it wouldn't even load up =/ Hopefully it'll work later so I can try playing about with that. I'm not too good at drawing - I can draw well enough for things like Pictionary but it's nothing compared to the artists on here. So maybe with GMod I can toy with making imagery. I've got 3 ideas circling my head right now for writing: a long TF2 story (not a oneshot), a long Sonic the Hedgehog story and an original idea of my own.

Happily summer's arrived, so I'll have plenty of time to work on those stories, play with TF2/GMod and enjoy the sunshine. ^-^


...Oh yeah. I also spelt my own username wrong when I signed up on DA XD! It was meant to be Dusk Zephyr, but I must've been tired or just not paying attention. Oh well - there's no point in making a new account over one letter

Sorted out my favs, put up a bit of writing and that's all I've really done on here so far. I still need to sort out an ID, a sig and put more art/writing up of course. Good times.

If you're still reading this out of what can only be sheer boredom, I'll give a very short intro. I'm a girl, from the UK, been playing video games since I could hold a joystick controller for the SEGA Genesis. I still enjoy playing video games and got TF2 two weeks ago and am still getting used to it XD It's the first game I've ever played on PC but it's incredible. I adore it ^^

But enough pointless babble for one journal!
