This weekend, I...

... wore a schoolgirl outfit and claimed I was dressed as a victim of tentacle rape.

... helped someone shop for an anniversary gift.

... went to a house party where I drank delicious purple punch and danced like a mofo to "Living Dead Girl" and "I Love Myself Today." And was slightly molested by a drunk gay boy. (This same boy tried to teach me how to waltz. It did not take.)

... had one of those interesting two-in-the-morning walks that involve Deep Discussions and many lols.

... made cupcakes.

... was a riot grrrl. She's got the hottest trike in town. )

... went trick-or-treating for the first time in years, with a Glinda, a Victorian vampire, a cat-girl, and a Jack Skellington.

... sang "Bohemian Rhapsody" at a bus stop.

... attended another house party that involved psychedelic ceiling projections, Shiva, and being renamed "Flatchest."

... went to the gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar and saw an old friend from Corner Brook in a dinosaur costume.

... tried to keep track of Drunk Gay Boy (yeah, same one) while grooving to the Veronicas.

... saw a guy dressed as Dr. Horrible.

... was smooched by a drag queen.

... was smooched by a lady.

... slowdanced.

... met a boy with a green mohawk dressed as Frank-N-Furter and got angry at him for saying that women can't write. (He argued that since he likes the Slits it's okay that he thinks this and he's not sexist. Which, um, no, dude.)

... slept on someone's floor and snuggled. :)

... celebrated my famjam birthday and requested "Oasis" instead of "Happy Birthday." (They sang it for me, too! At least Little Brother and Sister did- Mum and Dad just kind of stared in horror.)

And now I'm writing a take-home exam. (Theoretically, at least.)

Tomorrow I will be twenty-one. I am trying not to freak out too hard about it, and fully intend on buying Hedwig tickets as a birthday present to ME. And maybe a tattoo as well. \o/

I went to school like this today.

Grey pride. )

A disappointingly small number of folks were dressed up! It kind of pissed me off, to tell you the truth. Halloween is the one day of the year when you can wear WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU WANT without anyone saying anything. Plus fake blood. Why wouldn't you take advantage of such a sweet motherfucking holiday? Fail, university.

(Although a Spanish exchange student in my Grammar class dressed up as Sarah Palin and draped herself with police tape. It made me laugh. She refused to look at me, though, because she said I was too scary.)

I went to the English Society mixer after class and had a... well, a time. It's always weird to go to school functions, especially when you live off-campus, but after I had a drink I started relaxing and had three good conversations: one with a professor, one with a townie, and one with a guy from my Moral Philosophy class named Tim. Tim was dressed as Malcolm Reynolds and gently informed me about ten minutes in that I had blood all over my teeth. Nice guy.

I felt kind of frustrated with myself for not immediately having a good time, but at least I did it, and talked to people, and had some fun. Baby steps, etc.

And now I am chilling with my family, eating tiny chocolate bars and watching Poltergeist. Tomorrow I start NaNoWriMo, and the day after that is my birthday.

Happy Halloween, everybody.

I started my bookstore job on Tuesday.

... Guys. GUYS. THERE ARE SO MANY BOOKS IN THE WORLD AND I GET TO CHILL WITH THEM AND GET PAID FOR IT. :DDDD

(Restocking the erotica section is a little weird, though. I never knew how many people wrote sexy books about vampires. And all the titles have words like "velvet" and "forbidden" and "desire" and "seduction" in them. If I wrote a book called Velvet Seduction, Forbidden Desire: The Sensual Adventures of Horatio Ravisham, Vampire Demon-Lover I would make a bundle. A bundle I would not be able to tell my mother about, but a bundle nonetheless.)

Continuing the theme of "Things That Make Ish Ridiculously Happy," Tom Lenk came out! Which means I have an excuse to post a video full of my favourite Andrew moments, which means everybody wins. (Especially Tom Lenk.)



And while I'm at it...



... it's almost Halloween!

(IT IS ALSO ALMOST MY BIRTHDAY. JUST IN CASE YOU FORGOT.)

This morning I played around with eyeliner. I wanted to get that consumptive look. )

Whenever I list movies that make me cry I forget to put Pleasantville on there. It's Jeff Daniels' character that does me in- when he stares at the art book and says "where am I going to see colours like that?" (Little known fact: there is a town pretty close to St. John's that is named Pleasantville! It makes me laugh and laugh and then kind of want to take the bus there so I can hang out with Joan Allen.)

... This entry has no unifying theme. I mean, other than "DEAR INTERNETS: HERE ARE THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY. ALSO, IT'S MY BIRTHDAY SOON. ALSO, I'M A CAMWHORE."

Two things:

1) My little sister has recently decided that she is destined to marry Brendon Urie,* and wants me (or, as she puts it, "your friends in the computer") to find her funny Panic clips so they'll have something to talk about on their wedding night. So if anyone's got some links to videos of those ridiculous boys and their ridiculous faces I'd be much obliged!

(She wanted me to say it like this: "Listen up, all you cool cats and hip chicks! I be lookin' for some funny Panic At The Disco vids for my little sister, 'cause she's cool as ice." Which... no. But I do think you are all very cool cats, hip chicks, and groovy otherwise-identified people! And it goes without saying that Little Sister is cool as ice.)

2) What is a better idea for a Hallowe'en costume, zombie Catholic school boy or vampire Oscar Wilde?


* And Nick Jonas. And Pete Wentz. And Michael Cera. And Gabe Saporta. And Shia LaBeouf. And Travis McCoy. And Johnny Depp. And William Beckett. And Pharrell Williams. Her love is pure, there's just a lot of it to go around.
