Pub was good last night, except bus was stupidly early, and went straight past me, so I had to walk in. then I broke my camera whilst in the pub trying to catch annoying flies. We think it's covered under the warranty though.

Then me, Tom, Louis, Sam and Beth went back to Tom's and hung out and watched things. Though I kept dozing off :). Watched a weird Swedish horror film (in between napping) it involved a vampire male eunich child played by a 12 year old girl, and his...her...it's love affair with a 12 year old blond boy...Don't worry, it's not that bad, the worse they do is makeout while she has someone's blood on her...Wait...

Effectively had pizza for breakfast this morning, got the superhero nickname of Disabledo Girl from Louis (I'd get a shiny purple cape :D) and watched a film called Brick which is amazing. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is in it, who is very much becoming one of my favourite actors. He was also in The Lookout, another hugely powerful film.

Wandered home this afternoon, napped, looked at accommodationy stuff online (I HAS FLAT NUMBER YAYZ! - 3.6.1.E!)

That's pretty much it...*sigh*. Going to look at flat next Thursday when I'm in Leeds for my disability meeting. Also think I'm doing other things this week...you know...life?

Gonna ask Joe if he wants to see the El Desperado thingy film before Emma's play at the weekend, it looks pretty good, still want to see Taking of Pelham 123 too, but might have to wait :(

*yawns* argh, gaming or sleep. if only there was a way to game whilst sleeping...though I do have dreams about playin games, but there's no save progress option on those...

And it's good news - B in English Language, B in english Literature and a C in Modern World History...And a C in General Studies, but everyone ignores that lol.

My Lang teacher was really pleased, but I feel kinda sad about it - if i'd not been ill for all my history coursework, and if the examiners had marked my language ENA5 paper fairly (teacher said it was all downgraded for no reason) i could have got A, B, B. I know i'm just kicking myself now, coz I did do really well under the circumstances. I just always wish I'd pushed myself that bit further to prove I actually have some working brain cells up there.

Anyway, as Sy put it, I'm overly qualified for my Leeds Met place to do History, but I'm happy, especially as I've got the halls I wanted.

Now waiting to see how things have gone for the others, and for people on here like Sess and her results, and Bex's interview.

Really tired now, but I feel like I should celebrate, so gonna join the Holmfirth gang in the pub in a couple of hours. Did go to Yates for lunch with Joe who came with me for moral support which was nice though.

And just to be nerdy, in gaming news I dug out my old Nancy Drew games last nigh and me and Joe spent far too many hours playing the Castle Wickford one. I think I have to finidh it. Problem is we got stuck coz we couldn't get the lever on the secret room under the lift shaft to move :(

In the last hour and a bit I did indeed have a shower, I also nearly had a layer of skin burnt off in the process, but showers have a tnedacy to be mean so it's to be expected. I also made food in the form of slightly burnt cheese on toast. Something I decided to do once it became apparent that in general terms I'm hyperly off my face. This is an achievement of epic proportions. I am not drunk. I am not on drugs. My body has just taken my tiredness and my randomness and wharever else is there, and given me something that is usually associated with somone on weed and too much caffiene. not a lot of weed mind. just enough to result in me yelling 'PRETTY COLOURS!!! and THIS IS BLATENTLY OBVIOUS SEX EDUCATION!!!' at Fable 2. is also weird because i am aware of how weird this is, and my mood. but i can't stop it despite being fairly aware and compus mentus. unless this post makes less sense than i think it does. I also just fell off the arm of the chair reaching for my glass coz my leg seized up. it did that the other morning resulting in me falling out of bed at Emma's at some ungodly hour in the morning (not that i could sleep at the time) and then lying there shivering and mildly paralysed from leg and tired until help woke up. as a result of me fallingoff the chair, me and my now mildly injured left arm have crawled giggling over to Bex's laptop. as which is obvious.

Maybe this is why i'm apparently so awesome as various people keep calling me. you can throw every fucking disease and ailment and random crap at me, and i'll still end up giggling and wanting to clean (NO FUCKING WASHING UP LIQUID...ARGH! I swear the glasses are whispering at me, begging to be cleanified...No I know they aren't actually speaking to me, i'm not that gone. I just can't be useful!...fuck my arm hurts...awh the fable dog is so adorable! bless it! i wish you cvould feed it biscuits...i wonder if you can feed it biscuits...YAY! Joe says you can feed it a biscuit...I've told him to feed it a biscuit.)

:D

I am unsure as to the translation of the word 'margh' but in my head it aptly conveys the level of tired I am currently experiencing, mixed with mild embarrisment and a feeling of motherly protection...But mostly tired.

Friday.

Emma's party. It was good, there are many pictures. I ended up on drunk patrol after both Joe and a wonderfully flamboyant guy called James got far too drunk in the first hour and a half. Her 19th was themed - something you once were in a play. I can as an extra in annie, because I was too lazy to find the wings to be Puck.

Saturday.

Woke up early, wandered about a bit chatting to Emma's family who are lovely, and me and Joe had a coffee in the nice place near Kingsgate whose name I've forgotten before getting a train to Liverpool...Well I say coffee, he had tea and I had hot chocolate with marshmellows and whipped cream. But saying 'we went for a coffee' is far more easier to say isn't it?

Bex's party was pretty cool for a 7 hour marathon of '...WHU?'. Started off pretty quiet, then people turned up, most I'd either met before, or had a long reputation that preceeded them. Except Mike, who should have had a long reputation that preceeded him. :D

Joe I think was over compensating a little for being in a room of random people and simply put possibly annoyed a few people. He also had crotch hole and ended up having to put his other trousers on from his mad scientist costume from Friday, which was fine except I'd just washed them so they were a bit damp. I felt a bit mean ganging up on him like that, but it haqd to be done. As a result he got upset at me which probably didn't help public opinion more, but things got sorted. I just feel bad when stuff like that because it's like 'ugh, *facepalm*' And then I come across as the simpleton girlfriend that lets herself get walked on and is too nice for her own good. I am too nice for my own good, but just in general. Though I do like calling people whores far too much :D. In conclusion, I apologise to any Liverpool folk reading this for some of my boyfriend's actions, and yes I am taking him on a forced clothes shopping fairly soon.

I didn't drink much but had the migrane from utter hell which was aided by an ice compress but did have the downside of dripping on me far too much...And being thrust down Mike's pants by Dan...or possibly the other way around.

A large part of party was spent with me curled up on the sofa nursing said migrane and being highly amused by especially Mike, Dan, Borat and Vicki, and Lolo who kept coming up and giving me massive hugs, she's deffo made of win.

I also hope Mike doesn't feel too bad today. I pick Mike out of everyone as he had many things done to him including ice down tee shirt, stolen shoes, hit in the shoulder by a toy gun, punched repeatedly, hit by multiple alocholic beverages. oh yeah, and he fell off the stairs. *facepalm*. That was an interesting moment. As was Rob and the glass.

...In general conclusion I think I fit into the house of nerdy geeks far too well. I even have an RPG character in my head in case it ever comes up. Her names Marta and she's a little woodland fairy that likes to fly around and make sarcastic comments :D

I think I went to bed about 2am, but it's hard to say as it took about half an hour what with Mike and Ben invading the areas of sleepage. Then my migraine making me feel horrible. Then I come down to collect his Lord Joeness, only to find him passed out on the sofa, and 4 or 5 sad looking people huddled on the floor wearing coats with the front door open, the hosts missing, and some sorts of confusion going on that completely passed me by.

I realise this post is redicuasly long, *makes high pitched sowwy noise* but I'm nearly finished. This is what happens when I actually do something - stuff happens then I have more to report on than my latest gaming obsession or what purple trinkets I've seen today lol.

Anyway. I croutch next to Joe and tried to wake him up gently...Not happening. About 5 slaps later, eyes blink at me. Then this exchange occurred (as best as I can remember):

Me: Joe hunny. Get up. It's bed time now.
Joe: I'm waiting for Steph.
Me: ...I am Steph.
Joe: No you're not, you're Bex.
*all the cold shivering drunken people laugh*
me: ...No. I'm S.T.E.P.H. You have to come upstairs, it's comfy.
Joe: It's comfy here, and you can't drag me.
Me: Let me put it this way. I have the worst migrane in the world that's been making me ill, and i'm a tired midget. I can do anything, if I want to drag you. You're getting dragged sweetheart.
Joe: ...That is a very good argument. *gets up*.

Sunday.

Just lazed about mostly, too tired to do anything. Which goes for Ben & Bex & Joe too, plus I think the house guests that hung around to varying times of the day. Got yummy pizza takeaway for dinner. I've also discovered Assassin's Creed is bad for my sanity, If I fall asleep during crappy 1950's B movies I make up my own endings in my sleep, and that the sweets Rosie Apples are very painful to feet.

It is currently 10pm, Ben/Bex have gone to bed as Bex has work tomorrow, and I'm sat listening to the sounds of Joe playing Fable 2. And I'm pondering the depths of my OCD which currently amount to me wanting to clean the house and do the washing up. A task very much hindered by the fact THERE IS NO WASHING UP LIQUID. This fact makes me die inside a little...Hi, my name's Steph and I'm a clean-a-holic. :D

I've also realised from when I took my teeshirt off earlier and put it back on after going updtairs for a nap. It's on inside out. This occurred several hours ago. 'Why Holmes, your powers of observation are astonising.' 'Why thank you Watson...Watson.' 'Yes Holmes?' 'Just how long HAVE you been a woman?'

...I don't know...I'd like to blame it on the CFS but I think this just comes naturally...I'm going to have a shower, take one of Bex's uber herbal sleepy tablet thingymajigs and go to bed now...

Collected today, one are slim and gold and a lot like my old ones, and the others are a bit more bulky and has lilac frames and they are reactorlight. I love them. Will probably take pics when I'm not tired and hyper from cider.

Also bought a really nice knitted coat type thing from primark for £11, and some new socks. I'm always needing socks. I should fit them with homing beacons or something.

Oh and just ordered a new external portable harddrive, it's so pretty and is 500GB!

Love the new episode of RvB, the mystery helper stranger is great. "THERE IS NO YOUR MY RIGHT!" i think he sounds too polite for Curch, and isn't very Tuckerish, so it could be Wash on a prison break, or someone entirely new...I guess we'll just have to wait a week.

New Warehouse 13 is airing in America tonight, can't wait to download it in the morning and watch it. It is the new fandom I've been searching for ever since I caught up with Chuck Season 2.

So ends another pointless journal entry on my day to day ramblings. :D

The elders are out somewhere doing god knows what, I have hot chocolate in a funky mug, music playing on my new awesome purple mobile, and Morrowind is gonna be done in five minutes. In the words of Michael Buble - I'm feeling good :)

Been playing Starcraft and Fallout 1/2 most of today, but they've been making me feel kind of sad - Fallout games because compared to Fallout 3 they fail epically. But they are ten years old and amazing for the graphics of the time. And Starcraft because though it rules, I want Starcraft 2 to come out so much, but the first installment of that has now been pushed back to 2010 :(

Fallout's also making me sad coz I can't play Fallout 3 yet as my pc hasn't got enough RAM. Gonna test it on my laptop when I get it though, hopefully the graphics can cope with it.

Tempted now to start blogging with actual reviews of the games i'm playing, depends how lazy I am I guess.

Started to play prototype at Joe's but didn't get a good feel for the game as it froze just after the intro, when you are supposed to target the taxi and chuck it at the helicopter. which is a shame as that would have been a lot of fun :D.

I am such a nerd. x

It feels like I've entered a time vaccum and lost several days...Well, I am in Barnsley so I'm probably right. Came over on Wed-Fri to see Joe, but he's all lonely having 4 weeks on his own whilst his parents are in Greece so I've stayed an extra couple of days watching films and playing video games - Fallout 3 is EPIC.

Not been on msn much so bad me, but mostly just been lazying around. Headaches keep getting worse which is just fucking irritating.

In a happy mood at min coz of my fantastic angry Norwegian - Just got some offline msn messages from her:

"purple toothbrush box, purple nail file, purple eye mask and purple nail brush. oh, and purple toothbrush and silver pencils, one with orange eraser and one with purple eraser"

"oh oh oh oh oh, I also got you a light purple pencil sharpener! one of those that has one hole for big pencils and one for regular ones, and it has a box the pencil sharpen off-cuts go into and everything!"

"oh, and a tiny wee orange highlighter thingy for notes.
got you that too."

Told you she was fantastic. :D Plus she said earlier in the week she'd got the purple pepper grinder and the black/silver cocktail maker i pawed over whilst in Norway.

I shall go forth and find her pretties to send and take back at New Year!

In other news I think I just created a mutant breakfast. I wanted cheese on toast so I made toast, put a mixture of red leicester and double gloster on top, and put it in the microwave. The result is tasty but has a mildly radioactiveyesq orange glow about it...I also think I've being playing too much fallout 3...

Was just looking at some of the bad mary sue things. First of all - FAIL. Secondly, why? Why do these girls insist on doing these stories with obvious emo type mary sues that are related to cannon characters, going to have sex with one of the main guys and manage to have 'curves in all the right places' at aged 11. *Facepalm*.. Actually, this is more than just a facepalm. this deserves a double facepalm:




Anyway. I'd have to actually read through the books and maybe even watch the movies again so I remembered the details. But I sadly have a fairly simple plot idea. From a girl character's point of view of the other characters, maybe a Ravenclaw. Nothing big nothing fancy, just a character perspective peice from the outside, maybe her also giving reasons either for or against her support of everyone's actions and reflecting on the last few years at Hogwarts. Could work set during the fight at Hogwarts near the end of the 7th book.

Alternatively the idea is crap but meh, I'm tired and trying not to go from Harry Potter to Twighlight and moan about the actual author's mary sue ness, the idea of her rewrighting the books from Edward's pov or her spelling of her first name (which being called Stephanie, I have a right to do lol)...Oops.

Can't be bothered LJ cutting. I apologise muchly :)

Tom's party last night was pretty good, got some pics I need to upload at some point, including one where I look like a pillow munchkin (will make better sense when got the pic up). Went back to Louis' after coz I'd missed the last bus and I apparently wasn't allowed to walk half an hour at 1:30am lol.

( Rest under LJ cut as it's pointlessly long, ranty and full of thoughts, insecurities and stuff )

*ahem*

Just posted meme which I did lazily over today when I remembered. Finished Chuck Season 2. It was awesome, Casey is just epic. But then he *is* played by Adam Baldwin.

Went shopping with mum, got an odd thing for Uni but gonna do more on that next week. Also got a nice skirt for my friend's party tomorrow, tis black and slightly gothicy with lacy round the bottom. Also got a nice white top and a cute dress - All from a student friendly priced charity shop naturally.

Wondering how long I give into my plot bunny urges and write a RvB fanfic. I'm guessing it won't be long. My fave pairings are Church/Wash and for some reason Caboose/Simmons.

That's pretty much it for now, my life really isn't that interesting.
