I should be studying but ugh. I'm hungry and the Thai place I want closed about an hour ago.  Every place else that delivers is disgusting/expensive.

Hm.

Had a good weekend, went to the haunted corn maze with a group of friends. Lol, can't tell I live in the midwest right? Watching one of my friends, who is the epitome of self control, grab my hand and run around terrified of a scarecrow was both hilarious and unsettling. god she's so cute. I remember one of the first times I met her, she had me straddle her to show me and couple of others an MMA move and we've been huggy/touchy since. Which makes me think of how I'm so not that way with my friends even though I fucking love cuddling/being affectionate. I'm afraid to initiate it and idk I'm always on guard around ppl, even ~~bffs.

ugh I'm feeling weird now. (such a spechual snowflake, amirite lol)

Which reminds me, I should study - the prof for this class took me aside after the first day of class and told me how "admirable" (no really she used that word) it was that I decided to continue my education in a setting largely consisting of average (read: hearing) students. lolollll I'm her ~~~~first deaf student~~~~ And even after I got a 98 on her first test, fuck yes, she still tries to coddle me.

Not that I don't appreciate her making sure the vids have closed captions (srsly that is a big help), it's when she offers in front of everyone to hold off on starting class until my interpreter gets there. ohgodohgod how embarrassing, stop fussing over me and just teach. I can't sink any lower in my chair, lol. It's my responsibility to make sure I get the material and I'll let you know if I need help with something.


oh and fuck you GDL why you gotta be in Boston a week before I'm gonna be there. :(((  and there needs to be some ianto/martha or ianto/martha/jack fics written cause srsly hottttt and I haven't found one yet. Also more ianto and gwen friendship because the few that I've read were just so <33333333

Hanging out on AIM tonight with some friends trying to find a song to sign for sign sync. IT'S BEEN FOREVER OK aim you have changed so much on me since my teen years. Welcome back lover.

I'm waiting for someone from a long time ago to start im'ing me. Go away creeper, it's been years.

idk I'm feeling mean tonight, like I want to find videos of ppl falling and shit on youtube so I can laugh at them, ahhhhhhhhh.

but I found this video of a guy signing a lady gaga song:



GD I AM LOL'ING THAT GUY HAS TAUGHT ME SO MANY DIRTY SIGNS THROUGH HIS VIDEOS AHAHAHAHAAAA and Lady Gaga <33333333333

UGH WE'VE BEEN CHATTING FOR A COUPLE OF HRS AND CAN'T AGREE ON A SONG THAT IS FAMILY FRIENDLY ENOUGH UGH FUCKING KIDS. THEY NEED TO LEARN EVENTUALLY RIGHT. HERE LET ME SHOW THE SIGNS FOR FUCKING.

YOU ALREADY KNEW IT DIDN'T YOU

also, omgggg i'm getting new hearing aids !!!!  I'm too excited for words. But at the same time goddamn, it takes so long because of all the paper work and protocol and suck my dick man, my hearing aid now isn't working and I'm drowning in my labs. Just sign the papers and get on with it so I can stop giving my TA's dumb/clueless/blank looks. And OMG THE NEW HEARING AIDS ARE SO SMALL AND CUUUUUUTE



These were my choices. Getting the blue one on the right. It just needs the ear mold that the black one has. My friend got hers last week and they are amazing/confusing/loud/awesome. I'm dying in anticipation of all the conversations I will be able to eavesdrop on and laugh at.

Also, apparently I'm a sin. Not a sinner, no. A sin. Because this bible thumping dude hanging out at the MLK on campus has decided that because my bf and I have ~~~~relations~~~~ I (JUST ME) am a sin. Not the bf, he's the sinner. oh ok. I was raging/laughing on the inside, it's always the women leading the men into temptation amirite, how novel. That fucker was such a cliche, he didn't even attempt an original argument and by the end of it I had a headache from rolling my eyes too much. ughugh quit infecting my campus asshole.

"you're only an atheist because you love your sins too much" 
BF: "yes, I love her" 

:3333 ngl I smiled. I think it was just the way he said it. :3333

The semester hasn't really begun until I procrasinate enough to have to pull a caffeine induced all nighter and using the internet to avoid responsibility while doing so. To celebrate, a pic spam of my current/last semester at NIU. 

I was walking through the MLK commons (center of campus) today, when this lady hands me this pro life pamphlet AND A RUBBER FETUS LABELED THE PRECIOUS ONE. Um, wut.

She actually admitted that yeah, it's kinda creepy. I gave her a WTF face and confirmed that yes, this is in fact creepy. I wished I had said I'm not a walking uterus and this sort of emotional manipulation makes me want to punch ppl in the face, but she kinda looked pathetic. Idk

Continued walking only to come across some christian group spouting idgaf what. So while thinking all the crazies have come out to play and cursing the fact I still live in the midwest surrounded by all this shit, that winter is coming, and that I need to gtfo already, I come across a beacon of hope.

A newly formed group Advocates for Choice, NIU chapter. They were holding up signs saying "support women's rights", handing out free condoms, etc. I yelled out a thank you and signed up for their mailing list and volunteer services. They were a lot busier than the ~~other side~~ My faith in my peers has been restored.

And then I lol'd when a fresh group of parents and high schoolers walked by with an NIguide for orientation. WELCOME TO NIU FUCKERS.

WELL, DEFINITELY  IANTO (SUIT... TIE... OHGODICAME), BUT I'M PRETTY SURE GDL WOULD GET SOME ACTION TOO

What's new:
1. I've recently/finally watched Torchwood after a friend lent me all the dvds and oh <////3

I didn't think I'd become so attached to Ianto, but I did and now I've been obsessed and fucking hell I'm somewhere between omg honeymoon phase lololol and jfc my heart aches. IDK WAT TO DO WITH MYSELF SHOULD I BE FAPPING OR CRYING

Also, I've been reading jack/ianto pretty much non stop all weekend. So weird/exciting/refreshing, idk, to be reading stuff not house/wilson ...and wtf happened to that fandom anyway? DD: (still getting excited about s6 though)

2. I. am. so. fucking. hungry. We've been so broke since May and... yea, I'd kill for a buffet of anything. I totes heart my friends though, we try to make dinner together at least once a week to keep each other sane.

3. IDK WAT I WANNA BE WHEN I GROW UPPPPPPP. I'm getting old, I better decide quick. Thinking either Gallaudet Uni for an MA in mental health counseling (working with Deafies here, fuck yea) or maybe an MS in Nursing b/c I'm still obsessed with pathophysiology. BUT I GRADUATE THIS DEC OMGGGGGGGG


MY LIFE, IT IS SO ~~EXCITING~~ I'M GONNA GO SCOUR THE INTERNETS FOR PRETTY PICTURES OF IANTO/GDL (NOT THE PAIRING... IDK WAT TO THINK OF THAT)

Christ, how long has it been? Eljay, I have to relearn your ways all over again. But it's just like riding a bicycle amirite? 
 
I've been around, randomly reading/creeping/lurking, all semester, I guess I just felt like I didn't have anything to contribute :( uninterestingly busy and all that. But I miss this place and some of the ppl and omg fanfics so here I am.
 

( What's new/recap of my exceedingly boring life: )
 
Also, sorry if this is pretentious as I haven't really been around much, but this is for everyone who: 
 
Is butthurt over the fact that ~ham~ is dead 
Is butthurt that the (hot) huddy sex was an illusion (srsly LE you are fucking hot in those scenes omg)
Is butthurt that WILSON DIDN'T PULL UP CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE FUCKING DOOR AND HOUSE HAD TO OMGWALK ~ALL BY HIMSELF~ 
 


stolen from cat_macros 

FANDOM IS SUPPOSED TO BE LULZY AND AMAZING. YOU'RE BRINGING ME DOWN FUCKERS.

Although I admit to being such a victim of the anal variety - the epi with the Deaf kid had me fuming because of the controversy concerning cochlear implants within the Deaf community and jesusfuckingchrist ever heard of autonomy, but whatevs. Suppressed it to veryvery back of my brain. I suppose being pissed over this isn't the same as being pissed at the various ships in fandom, but I'm not exactly an objective observer so IDK
 
Onward: the last 10 minutes of House was fucking awesome. From the beginning it had this weird, idk, vibe abt it that something wasn't quite right and then whoa. A+++

I was supposed to have a bbq with some friends tonight but there's thunderstorms and tornado watches all over the place so damn. I'll just hang out on the computer instead. WUT UP FLISTTTTTT

 VIDEO/PICSPAM POST IDK

bammel IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THIS, THERE'S A SURPRISE FOR YOU AT 1.43 <33

Last summer I turned postal152 in for spitting (3 points).Last week I ate my brussel sprouts (1 points). Last Monday I bought porn for bammel (10 points). Last Wednesday I gave jane_hidell a life-saving blood transfusion (50 points). In November I ruled Asscrackistan as a kind and benevolent dictator (700 points). Last Thursday lana_ftw and I donated clothes to the needy (11 points). Overall, I've been nice (602 points). For Christmas I deserve HOUSE AND WILSON BONING ! Sincerely, nomadicbird22

Does anyone else still get a little teary eyed when you hear the words President Obama or Obama Administration? I STILL DO. AND IT IS AN AMAZING FEELING

This week has been insane.

1. I've been sick (again, wft) since Monday

4. OH DID I FORGET TO MENTION THAT WE ELECTED A NEW PRESIDENT? YES WE DID

I'm trying to upload the video my bf took of the crowd when Obama won, but youtube is being a bitch. Hopefully when it does get posted, there won't be too many shit comments or I may be force to metaphorically kick people in their bigoted little balls or something. AMIRITE

AFTER SPENDING LAST WEEKEND DROWNING IN MY OWN MUCUS AND SELF-PITY, I WAS STARTING TO FEEL BETTER UNTIL I ENGAGED IN AN EPIC CRAM SESSION FOR A TEST. THE STRESS AND LACK OF SLEEP PUT ME BACK 2 STEPS.

AND I HAD TO MISS ALL THE FLAILING ABOUT ON EL JAY AFTER HOUSE D:

(SERIOUSLY, I WILL WATCH PI'S SPIN OFF SHOW. HE IS AWESOMEEEE.)

NOW I'M HOPPED UP ON COLD MEDS, CAFFEINE AND RESTRAINT. BECAUSE I KNOW I'M GONNA START THROWING SHIT AT THE SCREEN ONCE PALIN COMES ON TONIGHT.

 I WAS GONNA SMOKE UP SOME TO CALM THE NERVES BUT I AM AFRAID I WILL HAVE A PARANOID EXPERIENCE JUST BY SEEING HER FACE OH GOD PALIN'S IGNORANCE SCARES THE SHIT OUT OF ME. NO JOKE.

ALSO, KOALA JUST BITCH SLAPPED ME, LOLOLOL, SHE'S BEEN TRYING TO GET MY ATTENTION FOR THE LAST IDK FEW MINUTES AND SHE JUST RAN HER PAW AGAINST MY FACE AAAHAHAHAHA I LOVE HER SO HARD.

I HAD SOME MORE BORING ASS SHIT TO SAY BUT THE DEBATE JUST CAME ON OHGODDDD LET THE TRAIN WRECK BEGIN.

I'M SIMULTANEOUSLY SQUEEING AND FREAKING OUT.

SQUEEING: THE HOUSE EP WAS SO FUCKING GOOD THIS WEEK. GOD THERE WAS SO MUCH GAY, THE WRITERS ARE NOT EVEN TRYING TO BE SUBTLE ANYMORE

THIS IS MORE PAINFUL THAN THE DAN/CASEY FIGHT ON SPORTS NIGHT, BUT THE MAKING UP (AND THE BONING) IS GOING TO BE EPICCCCC

AND I'M FEARFUL OF THE CRASH FANDOM IS GOING TO GO THROUGH WHEN HOUSE/CUDDY HAPPEN OH GOD I WANT TO PREEMPTIVELY COMFORT EVERYONE

OK FINE BACK TO INTERNAL/EXTERNAL ATTRIBUTIONS AND THE SENSE OF SELF MOTHERFUCKERS.

ILU FLIST

OMGGG HOUSE

IT WAS ALL  INCREDIBLY AWESOMELY BLATANTLY GHEY THROUGHOUT

AND THEN

HOUSE: IT'S NOT MY FAULT, BUT ...  MY BAD

WILSON: FUCK YOU MOTHERFUCKER IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT, BUT I HATE HATE HATE MYSELF- I MEAN YOU. I HATE YOU. FUCK.

AND THEN LATER:

WILSON SHOWS UP AT HOUSE'S APT WITH A GRIEVING BONER AND FUCKS HOUSE THROUGH THE MATTRESS IN HAWT ANGRY MAKE UP SEX.  Y/Y?

ALSO THIS SHOWED UP AT MY DOOR THIS MORNING (IGNORE THE MESS):


OMFG, IT CAN'T BE MORE THAN 3 MONTHS OLD AND IS FUCKING CUTE. AFTER WALKING AROUND A BIT TO SEE IF SHE BELONGS TO SOMEONE, I TAKE HER IN.

I OF COURSE INSTANTLY FALL IN LOVE AND START CALLING HER CHAP (FOR THE HITLER/CHAPLIN STACHE). I PUT UP SIGNS AROUND THE BUILDING ASKING IF ANYONE LOST A KITTY AND SECRETLY HOPE NO ONE CLAIMS HER SO I CAN CONVINCE THE BF TO LET ME KEEP HER.

BUT AFTER ABOUT 6 HRS OF BONDING/CUDDLING/PURRING/PLAYING, A NEIGHBOR FROM ACROSS THE HALL COMES BY TO GET HER. I TELL HIM IF HE EVER NEEDS A CATSITTER, LET ME KNOW.

THEN I CUDDLED UP WITH MY TWO CATS I HAVE NOW.

<33

1. OMGOMG VANCE GILBERT IS GOING TO BE IN ROCKFORD NOVEMBER 7TH AND I AM GOINGGGG. I SAW HIM OPEN FOR GEORGE CARLIN A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO AND I'VE BEEN IN LOVE EVER SINCE.
