Don't panic...I'm fine They removed an ovarian cyst that was a little bigger than 10 cm in diameter - they said that it was taking up most of my abdominal cavity. Which actually explains a lot - my lack of appetite, etc. It was apparently pressing on my uterus, my stomach, and my bladder.

Yeah, if anyone was really interested

Well, don't worry, you guys As of five months ago (it's been a while, lol), the poem is meaningless...I have met the most amazing guy ever, who made me realize that the guys who inspired said poem were total jerks.

But...he'll be going into the Navy shortly after my birthday, and as of June, I won't see him much for the next six years...

But you know what? I feel very optimistic I think that he is truly The One, and that things are going to go very well

So...thanks for the support on the poem, guys, but I'm feeling great!

I you, Dexter. So so much.

Sort of silence I'm scared to breach
You're always there, but never seen
Evanescent like you're in a dream
I move to touch you, but then you're gone
And I'm left to ask what I did wrong
I rarely ever see you smile
But when I do, I'm happy a while
Especially if it's directed at me
You give me a sense of calm I need
When I used to see you, I'd feel shy
But I look at you now and feel like I'll cry
Despite this all, I can't be mad
For the time I've known you, I feel glad
But now it seems you're confusing me
As time passes I start to see
Exactly what you mean to me
And I know that I should let you be
But if I let you go your way
Will you come back to me someday?
Or when I give in and let you go
Will that be the end of all I know?
Even now, it feels like I'm dying
So day by day, I'm just trying
To mentally prepare for when
It comes time to say "I'll miss you, my friend."

Yeah...just something I wrote.

*sigh*

1. They will always smell good even if it's just shampoo.


2. The way their heads always find the right spot on our shoulder.


3. How cute they look when they sleep.


4. The ease in which they fit into our arms.


5. The way they kiss you and all of a sudden everything is right in the world.


6. How cute they are when they eat.


7. The way they take hours to get dressed but in the end it makes it all worth while.


8. Because they are always warm even when its minus 30 outside.


9. The way they look good no matter what they wear.


10. The way they fish for compliments even though you both know that you think she's the most beautiful girl on this earth.


11. How cute they are when they argue.


12. The way
her hand always finds yours.


13. The way they smile.


14. The way you feel when you see their name on the your cell after you just had a big fight.


15. The way she says "lets not fight anymore" - even though you know that an hour later....


16. The way that they kiss after you have had a fight.


17. The way they kiss you when you say "I love you".


18. Actually...Just the way they kiss you...


19. The way they fall into your arms when they cry.


20. Then the way they apologize for crying over something that silly.


21. The way they hit you and expect it to hurt. * i think every girl is guilty of this


22. Then the way they apologize when it does hurt (even though we don't admit it).


23. The way they say "I miss you".


24. The way you miss them.


25. The way their tears make
you want to change the world so that it doesn't hurt her anymore...



Yet regardless if you love them, hate them, wish they would die or know that you would die without them it matters not. Because once in your life, whatever they were to the world they become everything to you. When you look them in the eyes, traveling to the depths of their souls and you say a million things without trace of a sound, you know that your own life is inevitable consumed within the rhythmic beatings of her very heart. We love them for a million reasons, no paper would do it justice. It is a thing not of the mind but of the heart.


A feeling.


Only felt.

God, I guess I'm just way more sensitive now that I have a baby brother of my own, but I don't get what it is...I understand that not everybody wants children, but there's no need to do shit like that!

Alright, quick updates:

1. Stage crew will be called for sometime in January
2. Saw Variety Show DVD--I think Suzanne and D.J. were the best, but neither of them made it (that I know of) into the assembly which is consisted of the "best" five acts. Suzanne's song that she and her friend Ryan wrote together was beautiful, and D.J.'s song that he composed was awesome! (Dad agrees with me that they were the best)
3. Not sure if I've said this yet or not, but I broke up with my boyfriend last month...guess that's good, since I really don't think we were going anywhere. (Like getting to know each other better)
4. There's gotta be something else, but I can't think of it now.
5. Oh yeah, they changed the malaprop skit...we've been cut down to 8 cupids, but I'm still Goth Cupid. Whoo!
6. Kelly and I are nearly done ((one more thing!)) with our final film project for CommTech--a month early!

Guess that's it, so I'll go and get a shower now...need to finish Christmas shopping.

Only mishap?: One girl tells me "Oh, we have all the help we need. We've got people standing around backstage, doing nothing."

I ask my teacher, and she says: "What?! They could always use more help!"

Uh-huh. I thought so. So, I'm going to talk to one of the teachers about stage crew, hopefully next week. *Crosses fingers*

So in malaprop players this week, we were talking about doing a short play for Valentine's Day ((it was too late to do something for Christmas )), and we decided to do the 46th Annual Cupid Reunion--each of us has to be a different cupid. We've got Geek Cupid, Ghetto Cupid, Goth Cupid, The Seven Deadly Sins Cupids, Corporate Cupid, etc.

I am Goth Cupid, ha! Fear my Gothness!

Unfortunately, I can't go to our school's show this weekend...it's kind of like a talent show, with a lot of different types of acts. And I can't freakin' go!! AARRRGGHHHH!!!

*sigh* Suzanne's in it--she and her friends wrote a song; she wrote the music and they wrote the lyrics--and D.J.'s in it, too...I think Suzanne said he composed a song.

I asked him if he was going to be in it, and he said yes--I told him I really wanted to go, but I probably couldn't ((the church is going to play laser tag that VERY SAME NIGHT, and the show's ONLY ONE FREAKING NIGHT!!)). We kind of agreed that it's dumb the show's only one night ((by "kind of agreed", I mean we never said "yeah, that sucks", but it was implied in our tones, sort of)), and he said he's the second act.

He made a '2' with his fingers and was all like "second!" and I laughed and wished him good luck. He thanked me, and we parted ways.

Still. It was all good

This is Goth Cupid, hopefully reporting back next week with news about stage crew, or something else exciting...!

**WARNING: THIS IS PROBABLY GONNA BE LONG!**

Okay: So, let's see who remembers me talking about last year's fall play.

Who remembers me talking about Ben, Galen, Elissa, Jess, Dave, and D.J.?

I wanted so badly to be in other productions with these guys, because they were all cool, and nice to me too. Granted, we never talked much, but they were still nice to me ((as I was only a freshman and they were juniors and seniors, this was really big for me!)).

Well, the spring musical last year came and went; I was like "damn, missed the tryouts, but that was still an awesome show!" I even talked to some of the above-mentioned people afterwards, which was cool. It never even occurred to me that they didn't announce news of the tryouts on the morning news show.

So this year, I try out for the fall musical. I didn't make it, but it was still an awesome show. Nearly everybody I talked to afterwards said thanks for coming, it meant a lot to see you here, etc. etc. But it really meant a lot to me that they told me this, so that made me feel really awesome. So I thought, okay, I didn't make it this time, but I'll work hard and get into the spring musical!

Well, I heard today from Suzanne that the tryouts were going to be next week sometime, and at lunch the director of the plays (and my theatre teacher from last year) comes by to ask us about the game we were playing, Apples to Apples.

So, seeing my chance, I ask her about the tryouts: "I heard that the tryouts for the musical are going to be next week. Is that true?"

"Yes." ...pause, strange look. "Are you in a chorus?"

What the hell does that have to do with it? I think. Strange look right back at her. "Er...no."

"The spring musical is the Music Department's production. If you're not in a chorus, it's their rule that you can't try out."

Shit.

As soon as she left, I couldn't help it; I burst into tears.

"Alright," you think, "so what? Just sign up for a chorus and try next year."

No, you don't understand. This is the last year I'm going to see some of these people--D.J., Ben, Sketch, Jess... I wanted to get to know them better, so I could actually call them my friends...! But now, I don't know if I'll have a chance...and not being able to be in the musical with them...eh, probably sounds pathetic, but it just broke my heart.

My friends all try to cheer me up by reminding me that the musical director is known to make exceptions: "Go talk to him!"

Okay. So I get a pass from my teacher to go, and I end up catching a vocal class at the tail end of their class. ((Damn.)) And after getting over my embarrassment of being stared at by the entire class ((shit)) who do I see but Suzanne and Amber! I go to sit with them ((they were in the audience at the time)) and I quickly fill them in on the situation. Afterwards, I talk to the musical director, who's perfectly willing to let me join a vocal class in return for giving up one of my periods until the end of the year. No problem, right?

Oh, yes it was.

I have no damn free periods other than my 4th period lunch ((10 AM! Who eats LUNCH at 10 AM?!)), and according to him, school rules say I can't give up my lunch.

SHIT.

So my eyes well up with tears and embarrassment, and he reminds me that he encouraged me last year to go out for a chorus this year. Well, first off, that's not gonna help me now, and second off, I didn't know how to sign up. When I told him this, he says I never asked him.

Double shit.

Me, being a stupid ass, didn't even THINK to ask him how to fill out the damn course selection form last year! And shit, I should've!

He asks me, "Did you try out for the fall musical?"
"Yes."
"Did you make it?"
"No."
Cringe. "I'm sorry..."

So...long story short, I can't be in the musical...and other than malaprop players, I'm probably not going to be able to get to know the theatre-group better...and really, that's what I wanted. Believe me, I feel like a total stupid ass for not knowing how to sign up for chorus AND the musical.

Other crap today: The whole bottom of my backpack ripped out, so I have to find another backpack...-_-;

Everyone's trying to be helpful...they're all like "Well, you've got next year!" Yeah, but the others don't...

On the upside, there's gonna be a call for stage crew, so I'm leaping all over that when I get a chance.

I just really wish I could be in front of the stage with the others...

Sorry for the rant...I'm just upset about this right now...

*Breathe* Malaprop play... ]]> ~YakkoWarner http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/15488413/ http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/15488413/ Tue, 13 Nov 2007 04:22:41 PST not been my morning.

I woke up around 4:30, feeling a bit funny to my stomach. My cat was lying next to me, purring up a storm. ((Not relevant to the story, but still a cute detail nonetheless.)) I remember the last time I felt like that, I got out of bed and promptly hurled upon making it upstairs.

Well, I didn't quite make it to the bathroom this time.

*WARNING: THIS PART MAY BE KINDA GROSS!*

So I stumble out of bed, thinking I'll go upstairs and go to the bathroom ((since I didn't think I was sick, just that I really had to pee or something)), but as soon as I got out of bed, I knew I was gonna hurl. So I start hurrying up the stairs, but *right* outside the bathroom door, I can't make it any further and I keel over and start puking.

Mom and Jay ((my stepdad)) hear this, and supposedly the conversation went like this:

Mom: Whatwasthat?! *snaps awake*
Jay: It's nothin'...just Carley gettin' ready for school...
Mom: She is NOT getting ready for school! It's 4 o' clock in the morning!
Jay: ...

Mom yells downstairs and she says "CARLEY! Are you okay?! What's wrong?!" And in reply, I choked "I'm fiBLAARRRGHGHAAREG".

Ugh. I emptied the contents of last night's dinner onto my hallway floor. And dammit, that had been good food, too!

So, fortunately, no school for me today, but unfortunately no Comm Tech ((waaah! We're starting a new project, dammit!)), and unfortunately no greasy burgers from Wendy's. Waaah!

Though, since my stomach's still gurgling like "buahaha, I can flip on you anytime, uahahaha", I'm inclined to ignore the second one a bit more.

Well, it's 7:16 now, and I feel a little sleepy, so I'll either be going back to bed, watching House ((yes! marathon healz allz, y0!)), playing the Sims ((my House and Wilson sims got married; how cute!)), updating my fanfic, or playing RPG maker if I have the patience.

I think I'm going back to sleep.

Bye, alls!

(1) I went to my school's homecoming with my boyfriend
(2) Oh yeah, I have a boyfriend ((or at least I think I do <_< )), which I guess I should've mentioned before saying number one...
(3) I didn't get into the fall play, but oh well...the director told me it was nothing personal, but they didn't "need another young girl". Which made me feel better.

Second thing I need to say about Superbad: This movie surpassed my expectations...it went above and beyond what I thought it would be like. Like WAY above. So...holy crap I'd say it deserves that B+ the Yahoo! critics gave it.

As always, SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

MAIN CHARACTERS

1. [Seth]: Seth (Jonah Hill: [link]) has no last name, shockingly, at least none that I can see. He is one of the movie's two main characters--and has the dirtiest mouth that I've ever heard! He loves porn, and has a major crush on a girl in his grade named Jules.

Seth is presumed to not be as smart as Evan, and is going to a different college than Evan and Fogell. This really seems to bother him, though he tries to pretend that it doesn't.
Interestingly enough, Seth really reminds me of this guy who lives up the street from me...they look very similar, and they both drop the f-bomb way more than necessary
If you asked me who my favourite character in the movie was, I'd have to say Seth. Seth kicks ass.

2. [Evan]: Evan (Michael Cera: [link]), like Seth, has no evident last name. He is also the only character whose parent is seen on screen--his mother has a very brief on-screen appearance. Has a major crush on a girl in his grade named Becca.

Evan feels that Seth has been holding him back all of his life, but remains his friend despite all of the stuff that he has to put up with. Evan seems to be more independent than Seth does; however, he seems to be worried about them going to different colleges come fall as much as Seth is worried.

3. [Fogell]: Fogell (Christopher Mintz-Plasse: [link] ) is a friend of Seth and Evan’s. Early in the movie, he obtains a fake ID with the name “McLovin”, the 25-year old Hawaiian organ donor. Fogell ((who I keep wanting to call McLovin :s)) befriends two cops, Officers Slater and Michaels. Has a major crush on some chick from his grade named Nikola.

This was Christopher Mintz-Plasse’s first role, and I’ve gotta say, I really hope to see him in more! He really stole the show, and he totally kicked ass too!

Favorite quote regarding him: “Holy –beep-, Fogell’s a badass!”

4. [Officer Slater/Officer Michaels]: Officers Slater (Bill Hader: [link]) and Michaels (Seth Rogen: [link]) are two cops that are called to a liquor store that was robbed whilst Fogell was trying to obtain alcohol. Upon checking out his ID, they claim to love the name “McLovin” ( “It sounds like a sexy hamburger!” ), and take Fogell on their route with them that night. I can’t spoil *too* much for you, though

BRIEF PLOT OUTLINE ((ripped from IMDB, since I’m completely unoriginal))— “Two co-dependent high school seniors (Hill and Cera) are forced to deal with separation anxiety after their plan to stage a booze-soaked party goes awry.”

OVERALL RATING ((out of five stars))

Plot: Holy crap, I can’t believe I gave a movie that supposedly had no plot 5 stars—but I strongly feel that this movie did have a plot. It’s two co-dependent best friends who have never been apart, going to different colleges, thus separating for the first time in their lives—they decide that the best thing to do is to go to one party and get laid before college, and everything goes to hell. As my Dad put it, anything that can go wrong in the period of 24 hours does. ~YakkoWarner http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/14536451/ http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/14536451/ Fri, 07 Sep 2007 20:14:09 PDT ))

Hang tight--I'll be caught up soon!

Thanks for bearing with me!

EDIT: I just joined ! Whoo! XD

I'm so glad to be home.

I didn't really have fun...just too damn long car rides, and the house we stayed in sucked.

Oh well...I did have *some* fun, what with playing my new game, "Trauma Center: Under the Knife", and my other new game "Hamsterz Life".

On a side note, I LOVE "Mythbusters"! If you don't know what the show's about, it's a team of people, the head of it being two guys who have 30 years of experience in special effects in movies, and they take popular myths ((i.e., "Can you be beheaded with a ceiling fan?" and "Does sneezing with your eyes open blow your eyeballs out?")) and see if they're true or not. Most times, they're not, but it's tons of fun to watch these people try thhese crazy-ass stunts

I also love this other show, but I can't remember what it's called...it's videos of stuff taken by police car dashboard cameras, and it's some of the CRAZIEST crap I've seen in my life! ((i.e., some lady who had been arrested kicking out the back window of a police cruiser))

Anyways, I'll be watching Mythbusters for a while...hopefully I won't get bored until Saturday Night Live comes on...

Ah well.

Watching the 25th Anniversary of Saturday Night Live...it's not bad, but it's not as laugh-out-loud-funny as I would've hoped.

Ah well.

Me 'n had a great time this week...and I'll be seeing her again on Friday until the following Saturday! And then we go back to school that Tuesday. :sob:

Not much to say...I'm a bit tired right now.

Night, all!

It's not a complete sentence, so I'll post the whole line, which goes from lines 2 to 7:

"The anchorman's voice listed the names and the positions they'd held, and the tape advanced frame by frame until the moment when the Secret Service agents were shown racing into the chamber, startling President Durling and causing some brief confusion."

2. Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What can you reach?

My empty cup, lacking my lovely iced tea T^T

3. What is the last thing you watched on TV?

"Super Password"...SNL got a mention by the host of Wheel of Fortune!

4. Without looking guess what time it is?

8:46 PM

5. Now look at the clock. What is the actual time?

8:29 PM (Though now 8:30 by the time I finish typing this). Apparently I'm rushing the night.

6. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?

The fan.

7. When did you last step outside? What were you doing?

Earlier this afternoon, going to get the mail. That or take a diaper out.

8. Before you started this survey, what did you look at?

I think somebody else's journal (Frecleface?) that had this...which is where I got it from.

9. What are you wearing?

Clothes. A blank look. Glasses.

10. Did you dream last night?

Yeah...I think; can't remember exactly what it was...I think it was Wayne's World related...oh yeah, now I remember (it was), but it's too hard to explain. May you forever live with the suspense...buahahaha.

11. When did you last laugh?

Maybe about 20 minutes ago...nah, had to have been only 15.

12. What are on the walls you are in?

Pics, a mirror.

13. Seen anything weird lately?

I suppose the better question would be "seen anything normal lately?". Dude, my household is chaos. Weird is normal. Normal is weird.

14. What do you think of this quiz?

Eh...it's alright.

15. What was the last film you saw?

Depends what you mean by film...the last DVD I saw was my Saturday Night Live: The First Five Years DVD, around 1:30 this morning...the brief 5 minutes I watched my A! DVD to catch the Wayne's World cameo doesn't count. Uh, the last full-length film I saw...hmm, that's actually kind of tough to remember...I may have been rewatching the first Harry Potter movie, can't remember...

16. If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy?

Need to think about that...

17. Tell me something about you that I don't know?

I'm the female hybrid of Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar. I wouldn't say Mike Myers and Dana Carvey because I really don't look much like the latter...he's got red hair.

18. If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt and politics, what would it be?

That's a question that would take time to answer, time I don't feel like spending right now.

19. Do you like to dance?

I like DDR...

20. George Bush:

Hasn't done the best of jobs so far, but has had a pretty rough 8 years, I think.

21. Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her?

Anything but a boy's name.

22. Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him?

Anything but a girl's name--poor Dana Carvey; his parents wanted a girl so they could name her Dana, and when they had him, they said "heck, let's name him Dana anyways!" I would never do that to my kid... :s

23. Would you ever consider living abroad?

Nah...

24. What do you want God to say when you reach the pearly gates?

Again, need to think...don't want to think now...

25. Tag six people who must also do this in THEIR journal:

Anyone who feels like it...I hate tags

After Mr. and Mrs. Fenton retired, Mrs. Fenton insisted her husband accompany her on her trips to Wal-Mart.

Unfortunately, Mr. Fenton was like most men---he found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunately, Mrs. Fenton was like most women---she loved to browse.

One day Mrs. Fenton received the following letter from her local Wal-Mart.

Dear Mrs. Fenton:

Over the past six months, your husband has been causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and may be forced to ban both of you from the store. Our complaints against Mr. Fenton are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras.

1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's carts when they weren't looking.

2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals.

3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the
women's restroom.

4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, "Code 3 in Housewares. Get on it right away."

5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&M's on layaway.

6. September 14: Moved a "CAUTION - WET FLOOR" sign to a carpeted area.

7. September 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department.

8. September 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed, "Why can't you people just leave me alone?"

9. October 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose.

10. November 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were.

11. December 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the "Mission Impossible" theme.

12. December 6: In the auto department, he practiced his "Madonna look" by using different sizes of funnels.

13. December 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled "PICK ME! PICK ME!"

14. December 21: When an announcement came over the loudspeaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed "OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!"

And last, but not least.

15. December 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, and then yelled very loudly, "Hey! There's no toilet paper in here!"

Regards,

WalMart

I think I had something more competent to say when I first clicked "new entry", but I can't remember...I'm so tired, but at the same time I can't sleep...just too nervous...

Seeing as how I have nothing to say, I'll just leave you with a small preview of a new fic I'm working on ((separate from "Shades Of Grey"))--it's an Austin Powers/Wayne's World crossover. Hooray for randomly obscure obsessions. Subject to much change once my beta-reader looks it over, not complete as of yet.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————
((Spoilers: Post Wayne’s World 1 and 2, post Austin Powers in Goldmember. Set about 6 months to a year after Goldmember.

Enjoy!))

————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Scott Evil sat in his comfortable leather chair, glowering menacingly at the city in the far distance from behind the giant “Hollywood” sign. He was well-hidden by the underbrush and sign, and the cover of night didn’t hurt his cause. It had been nearly six months since his father, Dr. Evil, had turned on him and become a good guy…a hero, a protagonist, a—and here Scott shuddered—a goody-two-shoes.

In reality, Scott didn’t expect Dr. Evil to give up all of his evil tendencies…maybe lose a few here and there, stir in some lovely broth, dash in a bit of paprika and seasoning, heat for half-an-hour, serve and—voila!—the perfect recipe for a catastrophic feast.

It just didn’t seem fair to the young Evil that all of the time he had spent working to win his father’s love, pining for what relationships he could’ve had with his father, and degrading the elder Evil to save face…all of that lost time had been worth nothing. The bulk of Dr. Evil’s affections had gone to his clone, Mini-Me. Many times, Scott had wondered why the two had gotten along so well, seeing as people who are a lot alike—or in this case, exactly alike—aren’t known to get along well. But for whatever reason, Dr. Evil had loved that clone with what bit of heart he had…until Scott had changed.

Scott punched the wall in anger. What the hell is this?! He thought. I slaved away for my father’s affection—or even acceptance!—I changed to please him, and I lost it again! I’m being shit on, that’s all! Shit on! And you know what really pisses me off—?! For good measure, he gave the wall another good clout and jumped in surprise as the wall crumbled and formed a small hole, roughly the size of Scott’s fist.

“Great,” he muttered. “As if I don’t have enough to deal with as is…” He examined the hole and brushed at the loose chips of the wall and groaned as the hole only grew in size from his actions. He was about to put a large plant that was sitting nearby in front of the hole and forget about it, but something caught his eye. He peered into the hole and raised an eyebrow. In the hole was a secret storage compartment with some papers inside that looked very old—old enough to be his father’s, Scott thought with a smirk. He carefully retrieved the documents and sat down in his chair to read over them. After nearly a half-hour of close reading and rereading, a smirk spread over Scott’s face.

“ Perfect,” he murmured. “Thanks, Dad…”

————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Yeah, I know there's a space after the quote, before the p, in the last sentence...for some reason, quote-p equals a winky face, so I'll fix that in the fanfiction version.

*mmmmwwwwaaaah*! G'nite, everybody!

[link]

Some dude turned 30 and was having a "Wayne's World" themed birthday party. But my personal favourite part was the part that says you have to either come in costume or pay 5 bucks...but the description of the costumes was hilarious, especially ol' Benjamin's down there...

* Benjamin yuppie producer. baggy slacks, baggy silk shirt, clean-cut, hair slicked back. Speaks Cantonese. Asshole.

I can't even explain why I found this so funny...I just did, the little tagnote of "asshole" at the end was hilarious.

People are sad, though...of course, you could call me sad for finding that, but I was just looking for stuff about the movie on google, and that came up

Lol, hope he had a good birthday

]]> ~YakkoWarner http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/13023806/ http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/13023806/ Sun, 20 May 2007 09:42:24 PDT Well, well...another month is coming to a close, and there's been a lot of changes recently that I haven't had time to talk about...namely:

1. My foster brother went back to his parents...stupid move on the part of the state, in my opinion, but what can you do?

2. My little brother Caleb has started sleeping through the night! Huzzah! He's adorable as ever and I just can't stop cuddling him ^_^

3. The iPod Nano is officially busted, so I invested some Christmas/birthday money and bought an iPod Video ((which I think I'm already starting to regret--kind of wish I'd gotten something different, but maybe I can import DVDs...))

4. I've finally stopped "seeing" Bryce in the hallways. For those of you who don't quite understand what I mean, after Bryce killed himself, for a long time, I would "see" him in the halls--someone would look exactly like him, and just before I called his name, they'd turn and I'd realize it wasn't him. This has decreased significantly in the past few weeks ((unbelievable that it's been over 2 months now)), and I believe that this means that I've finally come to some sort of terms with the whole thing...I think for a while I was in denial, and maybe I'm finally coming out of that.

5. I finally got rid of my "stalker" Okkay, for those I haven't told the situation ((which is most of you, I think?)), this guy 3 years older than me ((and at my age, that's a huge difference)) revealed that he likes me...I was stunned and unsure of what to say, but I finally told him ((2-3 weeks later)) that I'm just not interested in him that way...after I said this, I could practically see him "droop" ((and as my dear friend pointed out to me, yes, that could be read sexually >_>), but he hoped we could still be friends. Why not? I like talking about movies and such with him...I just have no interest in dating him.

6. I didn't think I liked DJ as much as I used to, but I've recently seen a lot of him ((9 times in 2 months...not bad for what used to be 3 times in 6 months)) and realized that I still like him...a lot. ((Damn.))

7. I think I'll only have to take ONE of my four finals, that one being American Cultures. AC is my only honours course, so I knew from the beginning that'd be the one I have to take Everything else, I have a 90% average or higher in ((Math, English, Science)), which is the prerequisite to being exempt from the finals. W00t!

8. I have officially started a new fanfiction account: [link] I started this one shortly after temporarily closing my old one, which has now been named "Dormantly Banjkazfan". Oh, I'm so asking to get banned for having multiple accounts...

9. I'm still a Wayne's World fan ((), but I've discovered I'm not just a fan of the movie, but a fan of Mike Myers and Dana Carvey. I realize that's not much of a step-up, but it's better than being a complete nut about the movie I now like the actors too!

10. My art has gotten a WHOLE lot better in a little over a year. Sorry if that comes across as bragging--because it's not supposed to be--but I think it's true. My first deviation that doesn't make me want to honk/hurl/spew/blow chunks every time I look at it: [link]

And my newest deviation--first complete attempt at realism!: [link]

And hopefully, more to come--but not anytime soon.

11. Speaking of art, I'm still really far behind on requests/gift art/insert any other thing I owe people here. Damn...I'm trying to get there, but I've had no creative impulses lately, really...

12. I'm not doing my weekly reviews anymore...... ]]> ~YakkoWarner http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/12831664/ http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/12831664/ Thu, 03 May 2007 18:23:25 PDT [link]

That's my new fanfiction account...watch for chapter 2 soon! I'm almost finished!

I may post it here as well, if enough people seem interested ((and can't get on ff.net >.>)

The Best of Saturday Night Live: Dana Carvey

SQUEEEEEEE! I really like Dana Carvey Mike Myers rocks, too!

My Nan-Nan and I were going on a movie connection spree...we like Wayne's World, so I pointed out Shrek ((with Mike Myers)), and we found The Master of Disguise ((with Dana Carvey--last time I saw it, I hated it, but I'll give it another shot)) as well! She picked up the last 2 Austin Powers movies ((we couldn't find the first)) because I'd heard they were good ((I'm a bit wary, but why not?))...man, I'm so happy with my SNL DVD, though

First off, let me say that I'm getting the crap annoyed out of me by a fire truck driving around my neighborhood blaring: "BRAAAAAK, BRAK BRAK BRAK BRAAAK! CHICKEN BAR-B-QUE AT THE FIRE TRUCK!"

Alright, enough of that. You may remember that two weeks ago, I wrote a video game review for "Wayne's World" on the SNES. Wow. Two weeks...damn, I'm behind. Sometime soon, I'm doing *two* reviews to make up for the lack of reviews for the past two weeks. I'm sorry to say for those of you who are getting tired of my Wayne's World obsession, both of them have to do with Wayne's World.

The good news?: After I finish this review and the review on Wayne's World 2, that should be the end of what I can cover with Wayne and Garth. ((I can't do their SNL skits--never seen them, which is weird >.>) Anyways...on with the review!

I'm considering, if enough people seem interested, making a club for anyone who misses stuff like that...if not, maybe I'll just do it on my own, but I probably won't have much luck...

If anyone likes the idea, wants to help, or even just wants to tell me what kinds of stuff they miss, let me know!

Yes, they have a f---ing BARNEY sprite, but no sprites from Wayne's World!

Why can't I like something normal for once...?

If anyone has any way I can find sprites without ripping and editing them myself ((would take forever without my digipad, and frankly I don't have that kind of time)), I'd much appreciate it...

In a twist of irony, just after I was ready to post this, the Wayne's World theme came up on my iPod.

Aber jetzt bin ich gegangen es aller werfen weg

Wenn ich nicht zurück wieder dieses mal morgen bin
Weitermachen Sie, weitermachen Sie, als ob nichts wirklich ausmacht

Zu spät

Meine Zeit ist gekommen,
Senden Sie Shivers hinunter meinen Dorn
Schmerzenden Körpers alle Zeit,
Auf Wiedersehen jeder

Ich muß gehen
Erhielt, Sie allen nach zu lassen und die Wahrheit gegenüberzustellen
Mutter, oooh (irgendeine Weise die Windschläge)
Ich möchte nicht sterben,
Ich wünsche manchmal Kennzeichnung, die nie an allen geboren gewesen wird

>>>SPOILER WARNING: PLOT AND/OR ENDING DETAILS AHEAD!!!<<<

Alright, I’m gonna be perfectly honest. I thought the game was gonna suck. I mean, come on, it has about the lamest plot I’ve ever heard of…

However, Wayne and Garth have pleasantly surprised me once again! Well, Wayne at least, because Garth’s been kidnapped by some big purple monster and the point of the game is to save him. ((Though in another online review, it’s listed as a “special feature”…that’s a new one to me, the point of the game is a special feature O.o))

The game has its good and bad points, which I’ll outline here…

Top Five Worst Parts About Wayne’s World for the SNES ((yes, the top-5 option is a sort of tribute to Wayne and Garth only they do 10, and I could only think of 5 major issues)):

5) The little “cutscenes” from the movie are sucky quality, for one thing, but I have to give them credit for attempting to do the Bohemian Rhapsody sequence…they even had some sort of headbanging animated there O.o However, the music for the cutscenes is frickin’ awful, and also the pictures stay on the screen for anywhere from 10-40 seconds…WE KNOW WHAT IT IS AFTER 5 SECONDS, PEOPLE! ((Thankfully, I found the turbo button by the second level and could fast-forward through a lot of stuff.))

4) The attempted mix of photorealism and voices in an SNES game is a daunting task and the company made an admirable attempt…but they fell a bit short. Wayne and Garth look terrible ((and sound worse)), especially in the opening clips of the game. As I played the game, I began to rather enjoy the cute little 36-bit figure of Wayne. However, when Garth first makes an appearance in the game, I practically leaped out of my seat, screaming. He looked horrible! Absolutely awful! I was spared the horror, however, because he was onscreen for all of 10 seconds. If that. He returns to the screen at the end of every level—for 10 seconds. You actually can see him during the boss battle—he’s stuck inside Zantar. Eepsies O.o

3) The enemies have a “delayed death” issue. What I mean by this is that even though I destroyed them, just as I did so they fired off an attack—99% of the time it was that one hit that killed me. You only get 5 hit points—it’s not too hard to die in this game. ((FOR USERS WHO HAVE AN SNES EMULATOR AND ARE USING THE WAYNE’S WORLD ROM, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND USING THE ‘SAVE STATE’ OPTION AS OFTEN AS YOU CAN!!!—Unless, of course, you’re one of those people that can quickly grasp a game’s concept and controls and breeze through with minimal troubles ((you people make me sick jk)). I fouled up so many times that I was grateful for my ‘save state’ option, especially when it came to fighting the bosses. The bosses themselves aren’t too hard, but I’ll get back to that momentarily…))

2) The gameplay and controls themselves are awfully hard—I guess in return for a semi-crappy plot, we got fairly hard gameplay. I can’t tell you how annoying it was to try to jump up the little “drum chain line” or whatever and fall 100 feet to the ground. The good news is that Wayne’s impervious to falling for whatever reason, so it’s all good.

1) OH MY GOD, I CAN ONLY LISTEN TO THAT STUPID MUSIC FOR SO LONG!! It’s so awful, even worse than the crappy MIDI files you can find online…

But Now for the Top Five BEST Parts About Wayne’s World for the SNES:

5) While the word bubbles remained on the screen FOR-FREAKING-EVER ((see "cutscenes", above)), the dialogue between Wayne and Garth during the cutscenes is fairly hilarious ((example: Wayne beginning to say "Schyea, and monkeys might fly out of my--oh, wait, I can't say that here." Apparently SNES people were too afraid to even say 'butt'. Boo-hoo to them, you should've made the game more like the movie and rated it T Stupid people...)). Oh, why’s Garth in the cutscenes, though he’s supposedly been kidnapped, you ask? Well, let me get back to that…

4) I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the game is told from their point-of-view after the fact, whic... ]]> ~YakkoWarner http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/12416417/ http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/12416417/ Sun, 01 Apr 2007 12:49:24 PDT THIS is NOT an April Fool's Joke:

[link]

Good Lord, I can't believe this...most movies made into games didn't do so well, but releasing Wayne's World on the SUPER NINTENDO?! And the GAMEBOY?! I realize that they were the game systems of the time, but come ON! That won't do the game justice, and they fudged the whole thing up even more...here's the review of the game, along with ((my sarcastic comments in bold parentheses))

WHAT WAYNE'S WORLD IS ABOUT

An evil purple putridosity called Zantar ((WHAT THE FRICK?! Is that referring to Barney or something? O.o)) has kidnapped Garth. ((Dear God, the overused plots continue. At least this one's semi-original, though it would've been cooler the other way around...but I'm biased, Garth's my favourite character.)) Guide Wayne Campbell as he tries to rescue his sidekick. Luckily, he’s armed with a guitar ((Yes, we all know that '64 fender stratocasters do really well in combat)) and the power to Schwing ((I admit, I'd get the game just to see that in 36-bit animation)) that will help him defeat the enemies inhabiting Kramer’s Music Store, Stan Mikita’s Donut Shop, the Gasworks nightclub, and suburbia. In each location, the assailants include monster bagpipes, accordions, coffee cups, disco ball, and headbangers((By this point, I'm practically gasping for air from laughing so hard. COFFEE CUPS?! ACCORDIONS?! Mike Myers and Dana Carvey must've been cringing to see this...)). Once you start on the adventure in WAYNE’S WORLD, you won’t want to quit because it’s party time. Excellent! ((After a plot like that, how can we resist?))

WAYNE'S WORLD CREDITS

• Developer: THQ, Inc.
• Publisher: THQ, Inc.
• Distributor: Electro Source

WAYNE'S WORLD SPECIAL FEATURES

• Based on the SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE sketch and movie
• Save Garth ((Oh dear God, if that's a "special feature", I'd hate to see the entire game...))
• Destroy enemies with a guitar and Schwing power ((Again, I'd buy it just to see the "schwing" in 36-bit animation))
• Variety of environments ((Variety?! We get four friggin' locations, and maybe this Zantar-whatever-the-hell-his-name-is' hideout or something like that...either that or Zantar just stuck Garth under one of the tables in Gasworks and Wayne was too busy doing some stupid schwing power to notice))
• Large number of enemies ((Oh, it's a scary coffee cup! Someone save me!))



If anyone's played it, let me know if it's any good...I want to get the gameboy version, but I was pissed to find that the plot for the gameboy version was different than the rest! Hey! How about equal gaming here?!

However, the Laugh-Out-Loud factor of just the REVIEW was a 10/10, so I can't wait to see the game...I think I'll be laughing so hard I'll get killed by a psycho accordion or something.

I'm so sorry for deceiving you all for so long, but now I'm allowed to tell you the truth about who I am.

[link]

That's a picture of me from when my parents and I were visiting Les Veules, back in 2003...I was about 7 when the picture was taken, so I'm about 11 now.

In reality, I live in Kowloon Bay, near Hong Kong, and speak Cantonese. I've been learning English since I was little, because my parents both learned it when they were young and decided that I should learn it too. (Watching the Police Academy movies didn't hurt, either.)

My favourite movie is Wayne's World, because there are a few scenes where they speak Cantonese, and also, the whole movie can be watched in Cantonese, which is really cool. My favourite colour is grey, and I have a pet kitten named 愚人. If you can't read the symbols, sorry...I can't find any online translations for it to "spell" it out.

I'm so sorry that I've deceived you for so long about this...I feel almost completely better, but now I must say one more thing.























APRIL FOOLS!!

BUAHAHAHA!!!

WAYNE'S WORLD! WAYNE'S WORLD! PARTY TIME! EXCELLENT!

So...the format may be a bit weird, since it's the first time doing this, but I'll get better at it! I'll highlight the main characters ((main 3 or 4)), brief plot outline, favourite quotes, and an overall rating of the movie.

MAIN CHARACTERS

1. [Wayne Campbell]: Wayne Campbell is a young man living in Aurora, Illinois, played by Mike Myers. He has his own cable access TV show, called Wayne's World that plays every Friday night late at night. ((11:30, maybe?)) The movie actually evolved from an old Saturday Night Live skit done by Mike Myers and Dana Carvey ((who play their original characters in the movie as well as on SNL)).

Wayne's age is irrelevant to the movie ((considering they never say it)), though it is imagined that he's anywhere from 19-25. ((My interpretation is that he's at least 20, considering in the second movie it's implied that he drinks and the second movie is one year after the first one.))

Wayne falls in love with a bass player named Cassandra ((I believe her last name is Wong? Correct me if I'm wrong there, please)), and at the same time manages to sell his show to a big-time company! Awesome, right?...NOT!

2. [Garth Algar]: Garth Algar is Wayne Campbell's best friend, played by Dana Carvey. He practically worships the ground that Wayne walks on ((said by Dana Carvey)) and would follow him to the ends of the earth. I imagine that Garth's supposed to be younger than Wayne, however, on the internet movie database ((www.imdb.com)), it claims that Dana Carvey is 8 years older than Mike Myers! Hmm...

Garth has this immense crush on "Dreamwoman", a random chick that is in the movie but has no name and no personality. He also claims that Cassandra is "a babe" (("She makes me feel kinda funny...like when we used to climb the rope in gym class!"--classic)), though he never makes a move towards her. Garth is also kind of nerdy, but is a genius--his greatest moment that proves that is later in the movie, but I won't spoil that for you

3. [Cassandra Wong ((?))]: Cassandra is a bass player for her band and played by Tia Carrere. According to Carrere, the band that Cassandra is in, Crucial Taunt, is a knock-off of the Eastern bands that can't speak English but can rock out just like the old-time favourites. Though it is pretty clear that Cassandra loves Wayne, she has been called a "fictional whore" by the IMDB users.

Cassandra is apparently from Kowloon ((sp?)) Bay, though she says in the second movie, "Not bad for a little girl from Hong Kong". I actually got into a debate about this with , and she believes that Kowloon Bay is in Hong Kong. I dunno about that...>_> Tia Carrere was well-cast in her part and seems to have genuinely enjoyed her experience in the movie. ((If someone doesn't want to be in a movie, believe me. You can tell. They suck.))

4. [Benjamin Kane]: Benjamin is the man that buys Wayne's World from Wayne and Garth, conveniently having contracts and two traveler's checks for $5000 with him. Hmm...I'd say 'suspicious', wouldn't you? >_>

In the words of Garth, "If Benjamin were an ice cream flavour, he'd be pralines and dick." An interesting way to put it, but true nonetheless

BRIEF PLOT OUTLINE ((ripped from IMDB, since my eyeballs are about to fall out from lack of sleep))

"Wayne Campbell is a heavy metal fanatic living in a suburban Chicago neighborhood. On a Friday Night, Wayne and his eccentric best friend, Garth Algar hosts "Wayne's World", a public cable network TV show in Wayne's basement and is very popular. "Wayne's World" catches the a... ]]> ~YakkoWarner http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/12362718/ http://YakkoWarner.deviantart.com/journal/12362718/ Wed, 28 Mar 2007 13:05:15 PDT _> It's too hard! Mom says to tune him out with my headphones, however, Jay gets mad at me for using my headphones...what am I supposed to do there?! They just think he can do no wrong...they never once consider that he might've done something wrong.

((...sorry, I'm not trying to whine...I'm just really frustrated.))

Also, I'd like to apologize for the abrupt subject change from my last entry to this one...I've gotta stop updating these things so often. But with the help of my friends and family, I know that I have to move on, and I know that Bryce is happier now...so that makes it a bit better in my mind

Thanks in advance for any advice, and thanks so much to everyone who's helped me through the past 6 days!

[Edit]: I think we have a solution to if it was a pastor/preacher/priest/minister/other...we think it was a Catholic priest, because at one point in the service he crossed himself...which doesn't make much sense, because:

A): We were in a Methodist church :s
B): Bryce was Christian.

Hmm...I have no idea :s

Then I went to my friend Bryce's funeral at the end of 3rd period.

My stepdad came and picked me up and we went to the church...we were about an hour early, so we waited for the rest of my friends...God, I didn't realize until today that my circle of friends isn't quite as little as I first thought! Sara, Jazzmyn, Claire, Amanda, Amber, Amber ((I know two Ambers)), Brendan, Brandon ((heh, there's a bit of confusion there)), and Kelly...they all came.

The service was nice ((the preacher ((or is it priest? Or minister? Argh, I don't know!!)) called it a celebration of life))...I tried so hard not to cry, but I ended up in tears eventually ((it didn't take too long))...Brendan and Kelly were sitting beside me and they both hugged me, and I gripped Sara's hand. A few people from Bryce's family spoke, and his cousin sang Amazing Grace...she has a nice voice. The preacher/priest/minister/other told us that it was a celebration of life, and that we could honour Bryce in two ways...by choosing to live and by choosing to love.

Now that part shocked me. I truly hadn't expected him to say that, but all along I knew that's what I would end up doing...that's what Bryce did. He was very open and loving...that's not to say I understand fully why he was hurting so much that he took his life, but he was open and loving. In fact, my last memory was of him hugging me and Jazzmyn ((and I think Sara, too)) before going down the hall to his first class.

One of the students in my class spoke as well...he shared a memory or two, and then said that on behalf of our graduating class, we would all miss Bryce.

And we will.

We were all crying by the end of the service, but afterwards we were smiling and hugging each other...unconsciously, I think we were celebrating life by being happy and being there for each other. After that, we all went out and got lunch ((since nobody was planning to go back to school)) and had a great time laughing and joking around with each other. And it's a beautiful day--the weather even matched everyone's mood. I had originally been set on going back to school ((I felt that I would be okkay to go back)), so I didn't have any of my books...but Jay told me by the time we went back to school, it'd be like 1:40, and I get out at 2:56...I'd already missed 4 1/2 of my classes, what's another 1 1/2 gonna hurt? I'll just make up the work tomorrow or something.

I opened this journal saying it'd be today "in a nutshell", but I typed your eyes out, didn't I? Oops...sorry about that.

Thanks so much to everyone that's helped me through this, thought about/prayed for my friends and I, and cheered me up, especially:

--thanks so much, bro!

and --thanks for the pics, guys They really cheered me up!

[Edit 1]: Thanks also to for promising to pray for my friends and I

And of course, thanks so much to my parents, Nan-Nan, and GG...all of you listened to me when I really needed you, and I'm okkay now

Oh, and in a bizarre twist...when I was picking out what to wear for today, I found this ring that a friend had given me 6 years ago...it's a small little thing, probably from a 25-cent machine, and I don't even think it fit me when he gave it to me.

However, when I tried to slip it on, it fit perfectly.

What does my ring say?

Please pray for/think of Sara, Jazzmyn, Brandon, Amber, Amanda, and Renee...I've talked to almost all of them, and they claim they're okkay, but I'm really worried about all of them...especially Jazzmyn. She seems to be in shock...when I talked to her on the phone today, her voice was a bit quavery, but her tone was very dull...like she was kind of detached from the world. She's the one of my friends I'm most worried about, because she was really close to Bryce.

Thank you so much for your kind words and thinking about all of us during this time.

To make a really long story short, one of my friends committed suicide last night...and while I'm still trying to cope with this, we had a bomb threat at school.

Yeah, so...

[Edit]: You may have noticed that I took down "My Immortal" ((my fanfic))...I took it down in memory of my friend.

I just...don't understand this...why? Why did he do it? And why couldn't he talk to us...?

Well, I think it's official that my stepdad loves my foster brother more than he loves me. Whee. Hey, rhyme!

This kid does everything he friggin' can to get on my nerves...I know I can be oversensitive sometimes, but I'm not being so in this case. The kid knows a bit of sign language, but speaks in words...when he screws around at the dinner table ((annoying as hell)), I sign "stop" or "no", and tonight, my stepdad got really fed up and said, "how about YOU" and signed "stop" to me.

We haven't really spoken since. That was about 45 minutes ago.

Alright, I know 45 minutes isn't super-long in the big scheme of things, but I'm just feeling a bit unloved and left out right now...

Sorry, this was a venting journal. Gotta go now...

I'll put up a version on DA soon, but not tonight...fought too hard with fanfiction.

If you just want to read/comment here, that's fine, too!

Thanks again to everyone who helped me, especially Dad, my beta reader!

Thanks so much to everyone who left comments to help me reach the final decision, and please look for the story here ((or on fanfiction, if you happen to read my stuff there)) later tonight, hopefully!

Normally when I'm in doubt, I rate it M, but the problem is I'm damn proud of this fic, and if I rate it M, it gets hidden on the site and nobody sees it. Someone once told me in a review, "It's pretty much understood that people write for themselves but they post those stories on the Internet for the ego stroking that comes from positive reviews." Is it so bad that I want to get good reviews and good criticism on stuff? ._. I worked on this fic for like 2-3 hours straight and was up till 4 AM just to get the idea out of my head.

I guess the point of that is, what do you guys consider to be a Mature rating?

1. Microphones weren't working properly.
2. Ghost of Christmas Present has a very small hole in the crotch of his pants. We only found this one because the camera zooms in on "Ignorance" and "Want", two children who are clinging to his feet. We had to rewind it to double-check and be sure. It's either a hole or one bigass moth clinging on for dear life.
3. Bob Cratchit started his one line too early and it overlapped with one of his daughters' lines. His other daughter started giggling about it, which is bad. However, he covered well by shaking his head and saying "You're so silly, dear." Nice save, Reece!
4. In the "Fred's Party" scene, a few lines were forgotten ((the big pause for a few seconds was a good hint)), and one guy switched from an English accent to an American one very quickly, in saying "Well, is it an ASS?!" ((Guess which word he switched to an American accent on?))
5. The lights on the stage came up far too quickly and you could see someone pushing the Cratchit's house offstage--you're not supposed to see that. Also, you're not supposed to hear the hissing of the pressure valves that lift the house up to be rotated.
6. You can clearly see the backstage through an open door in Scrooge's house.
7. The singing sucked on the DVD. This is by no fault of the technology, this is our fault. We have different tempos, different keys, and different verses going all at once. Yikes.


To be continued once my brain is working

My description is off...there's THREE screw-ups, but they're all at the end...and I didn't want to do it again and again and again. I was pretty happy with it!

Please let me know what you think!

I watched the video about the cast first, and I cried...it showed a clip from the ending, where we're all singing...and I cried. Not like flooding, but just a few tears...I'm so pathetic

I just can't believe it! I have one of my Christmas presents--about 2 months too late! But I'm not complaining!
