My personal blog world. Called The Labyrinth because life basically is one.

So. Me:

Name: Sara

****************************************

Age: 19 as of June 2

****************************************

Favorite color: I actually don't know. I like colorful things. Basically I'm like a bird when it comes to colors.

****************************************

Favorite numbers: 4, 16, 394.

****************************************

Works: Cashier at the dining center/market on my campus. I work with nice people and get free food. It's been good.

****************************************

Likes: Reading, writing, receiving compliments, drawing, listening to music, complaining, skiing, making people laugh, Harry Potter, dark chocolate, Ben and Jerry's, changing peoples' computer backgrounds to weird random stuff while they're not looking, epic soundtracks that motivate me.

****************************************

Hates: Any sort of stinging insect, that awkward moment when there's an inside joke and I don't get it. Any awkward moment at all, really. Also early-morning exams and 9-hour work shifts.

****************************************

Interesting facts: I have color-changing eyes. They go between blue and gray, and I actually have a couple pictures to prove this. I collect fortune cookie fortunes, chapsticks, and paper books, because I'm afraid they may soon go out of print. Also, I recently found out about a rare phenomenon that occurs in some peoples' brains when they hear certain sounds or perceive certain things. It's called ASMR, and it triggers a tingling sensation that spreads from the head to the limbs. I have had this all my life and it's really cool, but I never knew it was an official thing or that it was rare until this year.

****************************************

My current obsessions: Jody Mills and just Supernatural in general, dyeing my hair multiple colors so that I feel like a dragon, staying up all night reading the weirdest fanfiction I can find while wondering what I am doing with my life, making sure I eat enough protein, ASOIAF (the show's not half as good as the books and I'll fight you on this, but I'm also obsessed with the soundtrack), any quote by GLaDOS, basically anything about Portal really, creepers from Minecraft, and this Game of Thrones fanvid.

****************************************

Favorite Manga/anime: Black Butler by far. Sebastian's been my only anime crush.

****************************************

Some stuffs about me: First and foremost, I'm a writer and storyteller. Of all the things that have changed in my life, that's been a constant and I'm pretty sure it always will be. I'm also an artist and a calligrapher. I like to read beyond reason and when I'm into a very good book I won't notice if my current dwelling falls down around me. I'm a passionate skier. I love nature and hope to live in a place with a lot of forests, mountains, or ocean later in life. I'm pretty weird and can also be kinda awkward......yeah. I really like random facts and tidbits of information. Always open to new suggestions about books, anime, manga, TV shows, etc. Always open to talk or just listen to anyone who needs to vent.
And I love bacon. A lot. Probably too much.

Welcome to the labyrinth that is my life.

Break

YES I MADE IT!!! Thanksgiving break and I am so up for NOT having to go to classes.

Awkward

I have decided to begin a list of things I overheard on my college campus. A quote from this morning: "She puked up a condom." Yes. I did hear that.

Strange thoughts and stuff

So. Looking back, I realized that it has been almost a full three years since I joined theO. I know a lot of people have been on here longer than that, but a lot has happened in those three years. So I was just going back and thinking about how much I've changed. Change is weird. Be prepared for a long random rant post.

The thing is, I actually wasn't an otaku when I joined theO. I got a DSi when I was fourteen, and then I joined flipnote hatena and learned to make flipnotes. I started out pretty sucky. My earliest flips were kind of laughable. I got pretty good, though. I was never as good as the best of them, but then, I didn't have a whole lot of time because I was in school and had other stuff to focus on. Anyway, I made some friends on there, and one of my online friends switched from Hatena to theO, so I made an account here so I could still talk to them. Then flipnote Hatena for DSi shut down because DSi was going obsolete and all...which I think is actually pretty sucky. I think they should have left it up so that even if we couldn't post, we could still see old flips and keep in touch with old friends...I mean, they just took the whole thing down. But whatever. Anyway, I wasn't an otaku at first, but Hatena had actually introduced me to Vocaloid, and to anime as an art form. (At first I only looked at it for the cool art, not for the story and the culture). So after a few months of being on here, I decided to go to a bookstore and get some manga. And now, here I am, years later. It's just weird to think back, you know? Things were so different back then. I've been in a weird mood recently, which explains this post, so yeah.

Freedom is near!

My paper has reached ten pages and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! On top of that, it will soon be Thanksgiving break! FREEDOM IS NEAR!!!!

Ramble

Okay, so I spent this weekend at my friend's house. She got her crutches, so she can get around now, but I still hope her legs are healed soon. We went to see a play put on by our old high school. The play wasn't very good, but a lot of our old friends were in it, so we went to see them and all. I have to say, being back in high school was a weird experience. It made me remember why I wanted to leave so badly. I feel like I've grown so much since I got out, and going back felt so weird, almost like I was being demoted back to my old high-school self again. I did not like that and I still feel weird about it. It was good to see old friends though. Sunday I went ice skating and I'm pretty happy because even though I hadn't done it in a long time, I didn't get out of practice. I guess it's a muscle memory, I started right back up where I left off. And now I'm back in my dorm and cold. I'm in one of the oldest buildings in my school, and the windows apparently haven't been replaced since the school was founded. I mean, they don't do sh*t for keeping the heat in. I might as well just leave them open.

Sorry for rambling so much, but I really don't wanna go back to working on my paper. I HATE IT!!! But I better go get it done. Once it's done and my presentation is designed, I can go on break without having to worry about it.
