Wow, how long has it been now? Almost two months. Sigh, I really don't have much to say. It's Ramazaan now, so I'm fasting. Which is totally cool except for the fact that I get hungry right before it's time to break the fast. Go figure.

Anyway, right now, I should probably be doing my paper for my women's studies class but I haven't heard from my friend who is editing my rough draft so...I'm writing Seth/Summer smut. :)

They are so my new obsession. Like I need another one. *rolls eyes*

Don't you ever just wake up one day and know that you're off to a bad start even without you doing anything? Yeah, today is one of those days.

I hardly slept at all last night which is funny considering I took medicine that makes you feel drowsy. It feels like I've been up all night and now I am awake at 7:32 this morning for absolutely no reason. I don't have classes today because Monday is classless day but I am wide awake. Tomorrow, when I have an early 8:10 class, I'll be sleepy and tired. Go figure.

I'm doing much better now, don't feel to weak after my brush with the ER. It's funny, I always wanted to know what an ER was like but I just never imagined it would be with me as the patient. I was so out of the whole time that I can barely remember how it all looks and what goes on in hospitals.

Another downer: I can't eat heavy food. Which sucks because I loved food and a piece of toast without any butter from breakfast sounds less than appetizing. Oh well, c'est la vie!

Oh wow, it's been awhile. Let's see if I remember how to do this.

Summer is officially over. And it really feels like it too here in New Jersey with all the rain. And, it's cold. Gah. Anyway, I guess it's pathetic fallacy or something that brought this bad weather on the same day school started. Which was the 2nd and my birthday. How did that go? I've had better and I've had worse. So I'm not complaining.

School on the other hand, is going to be draining. Tuesdays and Fridays are hell since I have four classes back to back. Sheesh. To top it all off, there seems to be a lot of reading and/or writing required for the classes. Sigh.

Well, Creative Writing I kinda figured there would be. That class was a little...different than I expected. The people who like to write, like me, seem...smarter than I am. It's funny but I feel kinda intimidated by them and we haven't even shared any of our work! There are these kids who write poetry and that's the one thing for the life of me, I cannot write. So, I'm feeling ambivalent about it; half of me is anxious for that class and half of me is dreading it.

What else? Oh I need to get Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets and On the Road by Jack Kerouac from the library sometime soonish.

Oh by the way, my goal in life is to marry Adam Brody and have his babies.

I write too many fics therefore, I have come to the conclusion that I have no life. Oh well.

Snapple knowledge: Before mercury, they used brandy in thermometers.

Yes, I am back. Although, I'm not sure how many people knew I was gone. Anyway, I went to Canada for some visa stuff as well as a little vacation stuff and now, it's all well.

Let's see. The eight hour drive to Toronto? I could have done without that. But, I did write a little dialogue from YGA and TCY so I guess that was good. We got to our friend's house at 9:30 and then proceeded to go out for dinner at a Malaysian restaurant. But, unfortunately, it closed by the time we got there. So then we went for Chinese. And no, SARS is not as big a deal as people make it out to be. It's pretty safe, actually. It was really yummy. I love Chinese food.

The next day, we went to Niagara Falls. Since I used to live in Canada, I had been to the Falls an awful lot. But every time you go there, it's always like "Wow, this is amazing." It's just so massive and beautiful and scary that it kind of takes your breath away. We went on the Maid Of The Mist which is a boat that takes you right up next to the Falls. Well, as far as you can go. You get mighty wet. :) I bought a shot glass from the gift shop to add to my collection. Not that I do shots or anything. No siree. It's just that my friend got me one from one of her trips and I thought, if I was going to start a collection, I should start one of those. :) Then, later, we had dinner at a Chinese restaurant in a quaint little town nearby called Niagara-on-the-lake. Yes, it seems we have a pretty large craving for Chinese food. Go figure.

The next day, we were going to go downtown to do some shopping but my sisters wanted to go to Niagara again. This time, we sat in a helicopter that took us over the falls. One of the safety guards there was really, really cute. We got a picture taken with him so yay! The helicopter ride was thrilling too. It was my first time in one so...yay again!

Okay, there is more but I have to so I will blog again later with the rest.

Snapple knowledge: If you take all the water from all the swimming pools in the US then you'll fill up all of San Fransisco. I bet you guys didn't know that!

Anyway, today my baby sister graduated from elementary school. Next year, she's a sixth-grader. :) I'm so proud. My kid sister is graduating from high school which to her, hasn't been a big deal until, well, now. I feel like I should graduate from something - from being a bum, I suppose. What's the next step after a bum?

I went to the DMV yesterday. I hate those places, always crowded and you have to wait in seperate lines just to fix one problem. It's worse in New Jersey.

On the writing front: I started a Trory ficlet because no one stopped me. Hmph. Let's see how I ever get anything finished. I think Christine is rubbing off on me (dirty!). Oh well. It can't get any worse, can it?

Snapple knowledge of the day: Beavers were once the size of bears. Freaky.

I decided not to go to the DMV today because it's late now and the DMV is crowded at this time. I hate that. So, tomorrow morning. First thing. Anyway, my friend Dina is coming over to hang out. I think we'll go catch a movie. It should be fun.

On the writing front: I realized that I should probably write down or type up future scenes that pop in my head as soon as I can because, otherwise I forget what I thought of (the dialogue, mostly) if I don't. So last night, I wrote down a scene from YGA that I think it kind of cute. I hope it turns out that way.

I am enjoying this blogging business. :)
