Random Fact Thread

-I've been at my father's workplace, a paint company.
-It's for my Career Shadowing project.
-I learned about paint chemistry from my father and one of his coworkers, whom I'll call L.
-It was pretty fun.
-I actually got to mix some paint.
-L and I took some resin with pigment added, and mixed it with thinner, and spread this paint on a metal panel.
-And I got to keep the panel.
-The paint's sort of a gray-green.
-I found a guitar pick that looks like an alien's head at my school once.
-It's probably on one my shelves somewhere.
-Today was a minimum day at school, so I could leave before noon for Career Shadowing and not miss any classes.
-My photography teacher yells a lot.
-Since I sit right in the front of the room, next to where he stands, it's kind of scary.

-Hoo, it's been a while since I posted in this thread.
-Okay, so, random facts. Here I go:
-I'm procrastinating. I really should finish up this last question on this Biology worksheet, but you know.
-I don't feel like doing it right now.
-CSI is on. I'm watching it.
-Umm...You know, I thought I'd have a lot of random facts, considering I haven't posted in this thread in however long it's been...
-But I don't.
-*sigh* Oh well.
-My dog is yelping. -_- Buh.
-Tomorrow is Thursday.
-Thursday means NEW CSI. *explodes* YAY

[deanna.]

-OMG, I'm listening to Elton John!!
-Yaay.
-It's "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting".
-I like the Nickelback version as well.
-But the original is better.
-In most cases, the original of anything is better.
-Such as books made into movies.
-They disgust me.
-The only movie made out of a book that I've seen that's legitimate is Holes.
-I read the book about 3 years ago, and then I bought it.
-It's a good book.
-I recommend it highly.
-The movie stayed very close to the original story.
-Which pleases me.
-Yaay.
-I'm bobbing my head up and down geekily to the music.
-But it's fun.
-And fun is a vital thing.
-So I'm having fun right now.
-w00t.
-Aww, the song changed.
-Boo.
-But now it's another good song.
-"Mood Rings" by Relient K.
-RK is the best band ever.
-Now I'm tapping my foot on the floor.
-I was watching Super Size Me earlier today.
-It was disgusting.
-I watched Back to the Future with my older sister on Saturday.
-My brother was SUPPOSED to watch it with us.
-But he blew us off.
-He went to the movies with his friends to see Corpse Bride.
-I still haven't seen it yet.
-The song changed again.
-Now it's "Someday" by Sugar Ray.
-I like this song.

Oh my god, someone took a bite out of the giant rice krispie treat!
Oh and the waiter was brutally beaten.
The Simpsons still make me smile even if they are so overpopular. I remember when I was weird for liking the Simpsons.
How come I'm always liking things and everyone find them weird untill the next day when everyone is liking what I like?
I'm pretty sure this further prooves my theory that I'm right about everything people just dont realize it immediately. One day they'll realize tea has no flavor.
If I were a superhero I know my weakness would be spelling.
My Lost group is meeting for Lost tonight.
How awesome is it that I have a Lost group?
I keep talking trash but I never say anything.
I hate that. When did everything I say become negative?
Well thats just with one group of people. With the other group I'm a cheerleader.
On the bright side, I will definitely see Sawyer tonight.

-Heh
-So
-I've started posting my Kill Bill story

-But that's the whole point, isn't it?
-Meh

[deanna.]

-I'm looking forward to Kill Dante.
-But I don't want Dante to die.

-I like the first one the best.
-w00t.

-At youth group we played an interesting game (I've played it before)
-At first you basically play hot potato, but the catch is, when you lose (get caught with the potato when the music ends) you choose a number out of a box (you can't see the numbers)
-Each number is linked to a type of baby food, and whatever baby food that matches up with your number, you have to eat
-I got chicken vegetable soup, or something along those lines, and let me tell you it wasn't good
-After youth group, kim, jess, riss, andrew, and I all went to Panera to visit my brother and our other friend (they work there)
-Jess bought all of us a green apple Jones Soda, which I'm drinking now, and is one of the best drinks I've ever had
-I just finished it
-All of the caps say different things, and mine says "You will soon be proud of someone close to you."
-Hmm... Andrew's said "Donate old clothing" lol, how random is that!?
-I just took my watch off, as it wsa bothering me while I was typing
-The guy who is fixing our computer is suppost to come over sometime tonight (and it's already 10:30)
-I think I'm gonna keep this bottle (from the Jones soda)
-The cap has a J on it, and reminds me of J. (for obvious reasons)
-I didn't have homework today
-I took an English test today
-I had Taco Bell today
-I'm gonna miss Andrew this weekend, while I'm gone

-A sports show is on the TV, but no one is watching it, and its sorta getting on my nerves
-I'm listening to Story of the Year again
-I'm tired
-I think I'll go to bed soon

Edit:

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, my computer is fixed!

I've been informed that the only pair of jeans I own isn't right for my body type.
I forgot I had them for a while but still, they're my only ones. Anyway I think there needs to be a panel of objective friends that you can try on all your clothes for.
They'd work if I were taller though.
But then I'd need a flare or something, I dont actually care. The jeans are pretty much ruined anyway now. I need clothes that dont come from friends, family or thrift stores.
Lost party was awesome.
As I told them, I felt like an idiot when i was watching Lost by myself. Like in the episode where *spoilers* .. I feel like for some reason Dupin will stumble on this post, and only this sentence and he'll be angry. Well when Charlie died I was screaming at my tv and I was the only one in the house and I felt silly. But now, like at the end of this episode, and a part in the first one we all start screaming and kicking and freaking out and its nice.
The huge dog jumped up to make sure we were okay and I need to find out what kind of dog it is cause Im in love with it.

[raoawr]

I hate my jeans. They're ugly and they're made for someone with a huge waist. Margaret took my good jeans and I can't wear them because they have a hole in the knee because Margaret fell in them and they're frayed at the bottom because I'm too short.

I have an English test tomorrow and we're not allowed to use our books for the essay question. I am very annoyed.

My hand got shredded by the cap of my soda today and it hurts in that weird itchy way.

[deanna.]

-I just had a shower.
-I used this weird Cucumber Mint body wash, but it doesn't smell like cucumber or mint.
-And the stuff I just used on my face is making my eyes droopy and sleepy.
-I have yet to dry my hair, though.
-It looks darker when it's wet.
-I have darkish brown hair, but it looks black when it's wet.
-And right after it's been blowdried it looks kind of red.
-My shampoo smells really good.
-I don't remember what it's called, but it smells kind of like vanilla.
-I ate my perogies that I was talking about in my last post in this thread.
-They were good, but I dropped one on the floor.
-It was funny.
-I have a song stuck in my head.
-It's by some band that has the word 'Buffalo' in it.
-If I had a band, I'd make up a really sweet name for it.
-But, unfortunately, I am not musically talented.
-I like to sing, but I suck at it, which sucks.
-And I want to learn to play bass guitar, but I have to wait until next year.
-My brother plays the drums.
-And my sister plays acoustic guitar.
-Grrr.

-Most people die, actually
-So read it just to see your enemies die
-
-So
-The Great Hunt is pretty cool
-The Horn of Valere can make the dead heroes of ages ago rise up and fight for you
-How sweet would that be?
-Especially cos they have the coolest heroes
-Artur Hawkwing, Lews Therin Kinslayer and all the rest
-Actually, those two are the only ones I know
-Kinslayer was the Dragon of the Age of Legends, apparently
-And I'm not making sense on purpose
-The Wheel of Time series is pretty cool
-You should read it, if you like old-style fantasy
-It has all the classic elements:
-Sheep Herder has great destiny, must leave hometown for some reason
-Institute of Magic
-Supreme-Evil that is trapped in some cage, and you can't say his name
-Orc-type-creatures
-It's cool
-The Riftwar, by Raymond E Feist is also cool
-Tomorow, I go to the Snowy Mountains
-No snow anymore, but we're still going
-For some unfathomable reason
-Meh
-Wrote the Prologue of Kill Dante Volume 2
-It's cool, because I'm in it

[Dante]

-I hope you enjoy yourself at the Snowy Mountains, PJ.
-I had barely any time on the computer yesterday.
-Mother was using it for ages.
-And then in the evening, I went out to see Much Ado About Nothing at the theatre.
-It's really funny.
-I've read quite a bit of Crime and Punishment.
-I'm trying to read at least 50 pages a day.
-That's not hard, as there doesn't seem to be much on each page.
-And I'm actually really enjoying it.
-I'm about two days ahead of my target, anyway.
-My copy has about 760 pages, and I've read about 250.
-I think I'm getting through it quite well.
-I need to, as there's a lot else I have to read.
-There's always more to read.
-For example, I'm going to have a stab at the infamously-opaque Ulysses next.
-And after that...
-I don't think I have any more classics at the moment, but there are quite a few regular books.
-And I think one of them is pretty thick.
-But I don't mind if it's fun.
-And if we go on holiday sometime, then I should easily get through them all.
-I don't think we're going on holiday for ages, though.
-There's a half-term holiday not long after Book the Twelfth comes out, but I'm having the teeth blocking my wisdom teeth out that week.
-I think I may be catching a cold.
-...Again.
-But I'm rather snuffly, and earlier I was sneezing a lot.
-I should have fastened my coat as I was walking home.
-It was pretty cold.
-There were rumours at lunchtime that a gang of kids from S. school, calling themselves "The Reload Crew"...
-Sorry, I just have to stop for a moment there.
-*sniggers*
-Ahem.
-Anyway, these kids were supposedly hanging around somewhere at lunchtime and throwing bricks at people.
-There was no sign of them at the end of school, though.
-There were rumours, at the last day of school for Year 10 (I think) that a similar gang of youths from either B. school or H. S. school were going to converge on the school at the end of the day and beat people up.
-We were allowed home early that day, and people always said it was because of those threats.
-Oh, and Mr. E. supposedly crashed his car while chasing after some of them that day.
-Pity that he didn't crash it into the kids themselves.

[Charles Vane]

Ten more minutes of school.
Well eleven actually.
I dont normally round.
My nails still have a bit of clay in them.
Ten minutes left of school.
Im making a piggy bank.

-Dante, your remarks about some situations have me laughing out loud for long periods of time
-I got a 93% on my English test *dances* yessss
-My brother bought a new video card for my computer today
-Our old one is very old
-So hopefully my computer will be up to its full potential soon
-My brother is on our computer--probably installing the video card--so I'm on my mom's laptop still
-Which doesn't bother me at all, as I can just sit in the living room typing away, lurking around 667
-My brother just left
-I'm excited to be a part of PJ's Kill Dante story
-I'm supposidly Ennui's body guard and head of security in the story, which I find cool, as I usually have to beat up people who are picking on my friends
-I can't feel my tongue, as I burnt it the other day drinking cappuccino
-I feel slightly ill
-I have a big test for Marriage and the Family on Thursday
-I meant to bring home my notes today, and type them out, but being forgetful as I am, I forgot them
-My mom wont let me on the phone, as she is waiting for the guy who fixed her computer to call back
-Which sucks horribly, as I want to talk to Andrew.
-Badly.
-I need to get my camera developed, but I don't have the money
-I've just been informed that my parents are going out to eat, and I get stuck at home, to fend for myself.
-*sigh*
-There isn't anything to eat here!
-Ugh!
-Have I mentioned yet that I wont be here this weekend?
-Maybe I have...
-I know I posted it in the Temporary Departure Thread
-I wish I could feel my tongue

Edit:
-I've switched to my computer
-I'm eating a chocolate cake type thing from my brothers work
-It's very good
-I need milk

-Well, I do try.
-I'm not sure if I was in that instance, though.
-Eh.
-I'm thirsty, but I've finished this bottle of lemonade.
-I can almost taste it.
-Oh, and I just remembered something that I'd forgotten for hours.
-We had a quiz in Economics, and I came top of the class.
-Well... Second.
-Lousy D., with his fatness and tendency to think things through.
-But he only got one mark more than me.
-I got 20 out of 26, and he got 21.
-And both our marks were about five marks better than everyone else's.
-I don't think anyone else even got into the 70s.
-Percentage-wise.
-Mr. F. told us to ignore the last point for the purposes of calculating our percentage, so I got 80%, and D. got 84%.
-Some of those questions were tricky.
-Like that one where a serious economic question was phrased in terms of the novel Robinson Crusoe.
-Which I haven't read.
-I probably should, but I don't really wish to.
-I should probably read something by Jules Verne, though.
-Now, did anything else interesting happen?
-Not that I can recall.
-Oh, wait.
-I spent most of lunchtime on my own, in a corner.
-The Sixth Form Study Room was full, and so I spent some time in a room with two associates, but then the kids they were peer-mentoring turned up, so I had to leave.
-And I was going to spend some time in an isolated stairwell at a distant corner of the school, but some lousy Y7s got there first.
-Lousy kids.
-They've got no reason to be alone.
-At least, not if they're in a group.
-I'm rambling.
-Oh!
-I keep on forgetting that I took pictures of my shirt.
-I really need to remember to upload those.
-And now I really must go and get myself a drink.
