AHA! Yeah yeah, I really am alive. =)  But needed to be resurrected.

*whacks forehead* I know I should have been updating all this time, but due to some technical problems I'm having in my area [there are these new Smart Meter things our governments attaching to our electrical meter] our electricity has been haywire for quite a long time; I didn't want to risk losing anything on my laptop, so I'm not currently using it —I'm updating right now from my cousin's house. =)

I swear I'm getting to all these posts/announcements that are piling up in my email, but I decided to quickly drop a line informing everyone that yes, I'm still alive, and yes, I will be updating.


And exams all went great except for my english exam [which I felt most confident about after writing it!] in which I got a 40 out of 60 [most my class actually failed that one], but still managed to pull out of that class with a 92% which makes absolutely no sense. *shrug* No complaints!

Must. Die.
TPTB. Must. Die.
Not a slow, painful death; not a fast, quick death.
But a death from which their innermost fears bursts out through their skin and *insert something satisfying*.
*anger quickly reaching limit*
I cannot believe they ENDED the SEASON FINALE of our beloved CSI with...with...
A 'To Be Continued'!!!!!!!!
What the fuck to they think they can pull here?!?!  They think they can just switch from basing eps on 'Reality Time' to a screwy 'TV Time'?? HUH?!

Okay, some anger has been elevated.

Moving past that mental Post-It:
*hyper blissed-out, bouncy mode*
This episode is pure LOVE. *squee!*  The plot line is the work of a Genius!; a HUGE contrast to TGTBTD a couple of weeks back, and a MEGA HUGE contrast to the other craptascular Season Finales of other shows. [No offense.]

Things I want to quickly skim over...[might go further into detail later on]:

They carried along the MCSK plot nicely in this ep, and [surprisingly] gave us the identity of the MCSK before opening credits rolled.  Which didn't really matter, since we've never met her before.  The name is Natalie Davis, a very intriguing name; I have a feeling they're going to do some further back story about Dell and Davis, but, *meh*.  I'm still incredibly pissed about that stupid stunt TPTB pulled on us, so I can't be bothered to explore ideas here. 
Yet.

Moving on; so we get a couple of clues that the CSIs follow to Natalie, which were awesomely done!  They've used a nice contrast between the actual time line and the flashbacks, a little Tarantino/Grave Digger moment in a few of the scenes, detail displayed is AMAZING [the time props must have spent on this...], a couple of pity!MCSK moments, her basic back-story, her introduction to the obsession of Griss and Sara [*snort* like most of us can't relate.  Except for the fact that we don't want to kill them...>.<], the little, 'hidden-face-Sara' abduction moment, the transitions between life scale and model scale, the Sara!Crime scenes...
This is all just...like a fresh breeze on a sweltering day, topped with ice-creamy goodness and a snuggle-bug.
Can you tell, despite the little hook they threw us at the end, I reallyreallyreallyreallreally LOVED this ep? 

The introduction to how she was a JANITOR AT CSI was pretty freaky; I almost can't believe how calm Griss was when he discovered it.  I assume he looked at the video footage from the security bank at the lab, but imagine the chills you'd definitely probably get when watching how easy it was for Natalie to orchestrate this entire plan.

I definitely didn't believe the acting; EVERYONE's acting was above and beyond the call of duty.  [Okay, you can't count in the actors who got in maybe seconds of screen time.  Poor them. =(] Brilliant!

Wondered about Sara's Super-Duper Flattened hair, though.  Did they change her make-up artist to the crappy one in charge of the bad hair-dos of Season 4??  Or did they flatten her hair to subtly tell the audience that Sara is as unhappy now as she was in Season 4??  OR, did they just flatten her hair to match Natalie's hair??  OH, the possibilities...

Ooooh! Oooh! The reaction to the whole 'Natalie loved Ernie, and she sees me as the person responsible for taking away the person she loved, so she's doing the same thing to me...with Sara' spiel Griss gave to the gang?  Well, it was exactly what I suspected, so it makes me feel pangs of, well, disappointment, but they had SO BETTER RUN WITH THIS PLOT DEVICE in the next season, or there will be millions of unhappy campers out there in the world.
Against TPTB's small numbers.

Errrrm...the music was beautifully assimilated into the ep; I barely noticed the transition stages, the music was just that good.The overall tone/theme of the ep was consistent to; always a plus.  Especially considering other, shoddy work done in the past.  No large costume changes, most likely because they're saving it for August, when they begin to film for the next season.  I liked the lighting done in Leapin' Lizards better than what they had done in Living Doll [this ep], but I don't think anyone cares.
*pause*
Do you?

OMG, the moment which will become the pinnacle/catalyst of my CSI/GSR-obsessed life:
That burningly-sexy flashback of Griss firmly gripping Sara's arm, then sliding it down, sloooowly down her arm, before turning and giving her that sexy smile????  *Gahhhhh....* *drool*
*glomps moment*
I wish I could rip this off the ep and preserve it.  Maybe display it next to Ms. Piggy...*starry-eyed*
Addendum [9? min. later]:  Alright, out of everyone I've talked to so far, about 37 people want to do this moment.  /If/ it were physically possible.  Everyone else either wants to tie it up and do dirty things with it, or cherish it. =D]



*sighs happily-contentedly*
*pauses mid-hyper!bounce*
*remembers Evil bestowed upon the Fans*



*anger rises in one fell swoop*
I...*grr!*...just CAN'T BELIEVE they left us with a close up of a potentially!dying Sara [Jorja's bid for CSI-free freedom??  Does anyone have any details of her contract? DID SHE SIGN ON FOR ANOTHER SEASON?!] underneath the previously-totaled car, then slap a big, fuckin' TO Be Continued on the screen.  :@
*eyes flash dangerously*
*slip back into hyper blissed-out, bouncy mode*

Note: Apologies if thoughts appear random! or all over the place; I can't type as fast as my thoughts come to me, SO...*shrug*
Will edit later, I swear.

AHHH!

It will be my b-day...in 3 hours and 6 minutes.






*squee!*






AND, back-to-back /AND/ a new episodes of House will be appearing.  It's fate, guys.


No, seriously.
*ignores hundreds of emails bouncing off head insisting that no, it was not fate, but the coincidental planning of TPTB*

*hangs head in Shame* Sorry I haven't been updating, guys; I've had a lot on my plate with Theatre Shorts, my job, and my homework.  But I have News! And Icons!



Here's a ... example!icon:

Okay folks, this is it:

If you want to read this journal [for reasons that are BEYOND me...], then you must friend me, or comment in this post [to ask me to add you..]

This is mainly because I /really/ don't want people I know to read stuff I vent to people. 
Oh yeah; also, tell me what filters you're interested in:
CSI, House, Bones, Gilmore Girls, Tamora Pierce, Harry Potter, Veronica Mars, Mysterious Ways, Radio Free Roscoe, Fanfiction, Fan Art, Movies/Music, Angsty Ranting, Contemplation, My Life1 [for Internet Buddies =)], My Life2 [for people who need some entries censored.  Sorry!]

We ALL hope.

Ho Hum.

Did stupid things because I was bored.


And now Extremely Un-Touchy People are mad at me.




Ooops. =S

Does anyone know where I can download the latest episodes of varios TV shows [example: next Tuesday is Bones, House and Gilmore Girls. Since I no longer can watch TV, I need to find another way to watch my shows =(]


I'll give you a cookie...and...Something Else WHich Can't Come To Mind...

ANYONE KNOW OW TO RE-WIRE A MOTHERBOARD??



*squeaks* Anyone??

*drags MSN icon off the screen and takes an aluminumbat to it* I HATE MSN!!

*sniffs* and I will probably fail English because of it. Stupid MSN.....

Okay, so /maybe/ me failing English /might/ have something to do with the depression I was in for 3 days straight, slowly emerging from it on Sunday, at 7:49 (yes, I wrote the time down) when I panicked, realizing an essay (which, coincidentally, is 20% of the 70% of my overall English mark. The 30% is the exam mark) That was due today wasn't even started.

(Props for you if you can understand the above.)

Anyways, so I did a rushed, crappy job [even for me], and printed it at school.

I will be lucky if I scrape 70.

And this, I have concluded, is all MSN's fault.
Anyone know where I can get a reliable version???

I found this, lost in my computer, and decided to post it (if already posted, sorry!)

Gina[info]addictivish helped me fill the template out. The boldened print was the actual template (the 'We Are' was changed from 'I Am'). What poem can you come up with? Comment if you made one!

We Are


We are empathetic and CSI Loving Tamora Pierce Freaks.


We wonder what it would be like to visit Emelan, Tortall, and the CSI Team in Las Vegas (in the T.V.), /and/ we wonder what it would be like to meet CSI's Sara Sidle and Gil Grissom, in collaboration with a Pissed!Alanna and a Harried!Numair.


We hear the battle cries of our favourite sheroes; the Lioness and the Protector of the Small.


We see 'many people on the worst day of their lives' (quoted from Grissom).


We want to be CSIs and have the power of a black robe mage.


We are empathetic and CSI Loving Tamora Pierce Freaks.


We pretend to solve each other's murders as CSIs would do. (And the thing is, we acually /do/)


We feel Geeklove, Alanna/George Romance, Daine/Numair Romance, Kel/Dom Romance, Aly/Nawat Romance, Yo!Bling, and SFF Love.


We touch 'dead bodies through latex gloves'. (quoted from Grissom).


We worry that Geeklove will never exist. ::tear::


We cry over the fact that Grissom still hasn't made a move on Sara (AKA: The microscope is still stuck up his ass)


We are empathetic and CSI Loving Tamora Pierce Freaks.


We understand forensic sciences and the 'coolness' of the Reinessance Age.


We say Geeklove, you say Romance. Geeklove, /Romance/! Geeklove, /Romance/!


We dream of the adventures in Tortall, Emelan and CSI LV.


We try to promote GSR and TP couple love through LiveJournal, TDD, YTDAW and FF.net.


We hope that Geeklove will come though.


We are empathetic and CSI Loving Tamora Pierce Freaks.

Yes. I have logged back onto my LJ account.  Because I finally have internet connection again =)

I've made an icon, for a friend anyone wanna comment??

 

( Icon (1) )

Well, still can't type about what happened on Saturday.  Not yet.
So I'll talk about what happened today.

( Warning: If you know me in Real Life, Do Not Talk To Me About What I'm About To Write )

Well, apparently, in the Second Episode of the First Season, Sara dropped everything to come in flying on a stallion to come to Grissom's rescue.

Okay, well, it was more like a plane.
But, still.

How can you just, I dunno, ditch all your friends because your world is moving too fast for you to catch up??

A week ago, I couldn't have cared less if Grad was next week, but now...

Today is the last day of school.
We graduate tommorow.
My family (the estrogen-driven ones) are literally fawning over my every move.

Why do I feel so depressed, like I'm being pulled apart at the seams??

I feel brittle...
Dry.

As if a necessity of Life had been taken away from me, and I'm powered on my adrenalin.

Which is slowly fading.

I kept on trying to roleplay as Sara (in the moment in which she decided to go to Vegas to help Grissom out), or even Kel and her Yamani Mask.

All-in-all, I think I did terrific.
No crying.
No squealing.
No desperate messages screamed out the bus window.

Yep, I held it together.

Then why do I feel so miserable?

Nikita, I am so proud of you for /not/ breaking down when they started to cry. *wavering smile*

Too. Much. F-ing. Homework.

At the end of the year, too, damnit!

Started (and partially completed) the Science project at Gina's house.  It will rock their socks.

I hate hydraulics.

Will eventually fall asleep at 5 in the morning, after I finish my language and music.

Will wake up at 7.

Can't wait until school is over (screw whatever I said when I was sick, I was /sick/! My mind wasn't working proper!)

Goddess help me.

By the way, I have finally come up with filters; here are the names of the filters:

By the Way; If you wish to friend me, friend me, /then/ post a comment telling me, along with the filters you wish to be included in.  Thanks! =)

( Filter Names )

Yay! I finally got some filters up! (not that that was particularily hard...as I only have...10 friends? 8?)

Now most of my posts will be Friends Only posts, as I do not think the Whole World wants to know what goes on in my life.

So, if you want to be friend-ed, comment. Also, if you only want to read certain things ( e.g.: Only the angsty parts of my life, or the depressing pasts, or the CSI filled parts), tell me.

I will soon post up a list of filters. Promise.

*blurry look*

I think I'm as high as a kite.

Anyone have any good fics that I should read? I'm in a reading mood.

I'l take anything from any fandom. Really.

*howls with laughter*
*starts to calm down*
*laughs* Alright, well, today (in our Cycle Schedule), today was Day 7.
Meaning our class had guidance during Period 2. 
Everyone knows Guidance was just a clas where a teacher recieves the opportunity to baby-sit us while our /actual/ teachers relax. Pssh.  Lie, that's going to ever happen.
All we ever do in Guidance is goof-off. Literally.
Except today...
...because our Guidance teacher decided to try to do something /productive/.
Well, in the end, the whole idea was a bloop.  No one was paying attension, and most people did nothing except recycle air. We were supposed to take this 'poem template', and fill in the blanks, either with a partner or by yourself.  In the end, Gina
addictivish and I filled out the poem template and shared it with the rest of the class.  We could hardly breathe, let alone recite our poem, knowing that half the class wouldn't get it anyways, and the other half would think us high.  But that only made us laugh harder.  Here's a copy of our poem, titled (very unoriginal) We Are.

The boldened print was the actual template.  What poem can you come up with? *eye-raised*
