oops
so yeah the HTML on my Firefly quiz did not work. Tried editing, still did not work. Got Kaylee 80% (hee hee) Mal 65% (I don't entirely understand that...lol), Simon 60%, Inara and Zoe tied at 55%...and it goes down from there lol. | | Tuesday, April 3rd, 2007 | | 2:20 am |
Hi! Yeah, so, it's late, so I don't have much time for an update. Suffice it to say that I still exist, despite academic craziness and numerous friend problems. But someone sent me this link on Facebook, so I thought I'd put it here (especially for all you crazy Firefly / Serenity fans. I just started watching, and it's awesome! Seen almost all the episodes but not the movie yet.) Anyway...

Hi everybody! Oh man, I can't believe how much time has flown...summer's almost over! Well, it looks like I'll probably be having my barbecue party (that was supposed to be a 'happy summer' party, but got rained out, so now it's a 'goodbye summer' party) next Thursday...I think....maybe...I can't have it this week because my dad and brother are both in Oregon taking a raft trip with my two uncles, and they want to be here (and my dad needs to cook heh heh).
Random Eva meme thingie!
1.) Copy and paste this into your journal:
<*font color="yourusername"> <*b>yourusername<*/b> <*/font>
2.) Eliminate the asterisks.
2 1/2.) Replace "yourusername" with your user name.
3.) See what color you are.
<font color="elfluvr"> <b>Elfluvr</b> </font>
Edit: ok, don't know why that's not working... *blink*
Oh, and this too...I'm not gonna copy in the rules, but this is the 5th, 6th, and 7th sentences on page 123 of....
The Shadow Rising (part of the Wheel of Time series) --Robert Jordan
"Sometimes it was difficult being as brave as the Daughter-Heir of Andor should be; she often found herself wishing she could manage as well as those two.
'The guards,' Moiraine muttered as if to herself. 'I saw them in the corridor still, and never thought.'"
Yay for that! Um...sorry I couldn't come last night, Kel and company...mom said no, of course.
ack! g2g, but will write/talk to you later!!!

ok, so, i guess I will be doing that...anonymous describing...thing. Yeah. So. here goes... Take a look at your Friends List, and list up to 10 things you want to say to 10 different LJ friends. Do not state who these people are. Do not confirm or deny any 'comment speculation'. Then tag 5 people to do this meme. 1. I feel like I've gotten to know you much better in the past few years. Albion was fun, but I was too much of an uptight prick then to have fun with you, I think. As weird as this may sound, it's been fun to see you grow, yet still keep your wacky sense of humor that I love so much. You are confusing me a bit lately, but I hope that things work out for you in the end. Please, don't hurt... 2. You're one of my bestest buds. I loved how we used to "shrink" for each other (yes, i know that gave it away to you), and it helped that we were going through the same sort of things together. You've been there for me when I needed you, and I hope you know that I will always be there for you. After all, once again, we're kind of going through the same things as each other again. Even though you can drive me up the wall occasionally, I think that's only made our friendship stronger. 3. Oh dear, what can I possibly say to you? Well, (totally giving this away to everyone, but oh, who cares) you are my best friend in the entire world. I think it's funny how people say that we are joined at the hip, because I'm glad that it is that way. We've been so close for so long, that I know that will not change when I leave. I think you know everything about me that I know (and probably even more--remember the "revelation" about myself that you and Kelsey gave me? hee hee hee...) and....I'm going to miss you so much. I love you forever my friend, our ice cream oath will never die. (Even if we renew it with soy ice cream...=P) 4. You = wacky! And that's what rocks about you, even though there's a lot more to you than that. It was great all those times that we talked, especially about...shhh.... boys. And other such things. hope you keep your cuteness and your little bits of rebelliousness always! 5. I'm having a hard time knowing what to say to you.... this year was rather odd. I still wish that things could have turned out differently, even if just for this year. I'm going to miss you, too, and I hope that we can keep in touch. You're so funny, and say things that no one else would...and even though I refuse to admit it, you know a lot more than I do. (sorry these are getting shorter, but i'm running out of time.) 6. You're so cute and nice, I wish I could have known you better. It felt like sometimes you were holding me apart from you, which really made me sad. But you were still fun to be around. 7. You managed to confuse me so many times during all the time I've known you--you've got quite an impressive track record. You are a great friend, but I think you need to not hold yourself back so much. I loved being one of the people you talked to about yourself, but you need to do it more often...I don't know. I don't know much about you anymore, and that saddens me. 8. You are a funny! It amazes me how much there is to you underneath, (sorry that sounded bad)--i just mean so much that most people never see. I've caught glimpses over the years i've known you, and I just wish there could have been more. Let youself out a little more often--you shine!! ack, sorry, but that's all I have time for right now! France stories later!! Current Mood:  indescribable | | Friday, June 9th, 2006 | | 10:22 pm |

So...I found out today what is wrong with my stomach, which is good news because I can do something about it (and I can probably go to France!)! The bad news is, I'm very lactose intolerant. VERY. As in, the normal levels of lactase (the enzyme that digests lactose) is 24. If you're lactose intolerant, your level is usually 10-12. Mine is 3. Yeah. So, no milk, cheese, yogurt, or ice cream anymore.....*cries*. But, the doctor didn't say anything about stuff with milk in it, such as cookies, chocolate, etc. So it's not all bad...i don't think I'll have to watch food labels, just stay away from dairy products. And I love dairy....but ok. I can deal. Oh, the ucky part of this is, since I can't digest lactose, it sits in my stomach and ferments. And that allows bacteria to feed on it and grow. So i have to take an antibiotic for a couple days, to get them out. Weird part is that it's not like i ever drink milk, or eat cheese, and then havemy stomach hurt. It's not that obvious...it's just cuz of my scope they realized. So yeah. I'll let all y'all know how it goes (and how cheeseless pizza tastes...*sigh*) Current Mood:  hungry | | Wednesday, May 31st, 2006 | | 7:14 pm |
hi everyone...just had to say i liked this icon too...teh Frodo is teh funny! Current Mood:  crazy | | 6:25 pm |
| | Tuesday, May 30th, 2006 | | 9:25 pm |
Ok, well, I was doing Frodo research, found this icon, and decided I should finally have a userpic doodad. Only because it made me laugh. Many loves and thanks to Eva and Danielle for putting on the party on Saturday! Much happiness! On a short side note... they scoped my stomach today (which is why I was absent). The good news is, they didn't find anything. The bad news is, they didn't find anything. Which means I still don't know what's going on. Ah well, at least the list is narrower now... and I was asleep the whole time. Or at least, I don't think I was--that dopey medicine they give you messes with your short-term memory. Anyway, toodles for now! Miranda Current Mood: loopy | | Tuesday, March 14th, 2006 | | 8:44 pm |
...it lives!!!...
Ok, so here I am. Shocked? Be proud. Anyway, i think I'll just start with today. English was amusing, we had to move to the library because they were apparently putting in lights in Mrs. Mattson's classroom. Crystal saw that everybody was walking to the library around the school one way, and she determined that the other way (clockwise) would be faster. Silly me, I followed her. We got to the library before EVERYONE else, waited for quite a while, while a very confused Taylor tried to figure out what in the world we were doing there as we invaded his little alcove (he's taking independent study). I swear, it was 5 minutes later before everyone else got there, and they came in the same door we did. Maybe they decided to walk around the entire school first. Chemistry = test. Thermodynamics. What I want to know is, if delta E means Energy change and delta H means Heat change (pretty reasonable abbreviations) and delta G came from the name of the dude who figured this all out (Gibbs), where in the world did the delta S come from? It certainly doesn't stand for entropy or randomness... the only thing I can figure out is that Gibbs had a friend who he decided to immortalize forever by torturing high school chemistry students with his name. Justa hypothesis. Physics = quiz (as usual). The different bit was that it was a real AP problem (gasp! Why would one of THOSE ever show up in an AP Physics class?)....and I couldn't do it.....and it was from the beginning stuff. I'm beginning to wonder if Brenna and Lauren didn't have the right idea when they transferred out of the class this trimester--like rats leaving a sinking ship. Very nice, cute rats. :-) American Problems--nothing much to report except that Alex Pruss drove Hadfield absolutely nuts by arguing with him about something totally obvious. Speaking of Alex, Taylor wrote him a note and stuck it under his desk in English today. Why? I don't know, but it amuses me. Anyway, Alex seemed to think of it as a...a....love letter! I kid you not, that is what he called it. I don't think he thought it was entirely meant to express love, but he certainly didn't get it. The fact that Taylor said something to the effect of "I miss talking with you" or something like that seemed to faze him. He really must not know Taylor very well... :-) I'm not going to talk about French, because it was boring and lonely as always. *Sigh*...I liked it when Meghan had her independent study that period too in 1st tri and we could chat together. And speaking of Meghan...After school, she and I were supposed to go help out the drama competition, because we signed up for NHS. Unfortunately, Donaldson didn't think that NHS was going to help, so she had enlisted her own students to do it. She felt bad, though, because we had come in to do it, so she still gave us the hours. Anyway, maybe i can finish this later...must go now | | Sunday, January 8th, 2006 | | 2:54 pm |

ha!
Look look! I'm updating! And it hasn't even been a full month since my last post!
But now that I'm here, I don't really know what to say. I don't think I ever could talk to this thing very well--in fact, I never really have been in the habit of writing down my thoughts. Maybe it's time to start. My first would be that I have absolutely no clue (but a whole bunch of regret) how I ended up playing Halo 2 for quite a while with my brother and his 3 friends. I don't really see the draw, especially when there's only four people, and you can't get around too quickly, so you just end up running around without ever finding anyone. Hmph. It kind of gave me a bit of a headache too--major sensory overload with the game, LittleFelt (the nickname of one of my brother's friends) iPod going with mini speakers, and their continual laughter and exclamations. Of course, I didn't realize this until after (that my head was hurting, not that they were being loud, of course).
Oh and one more thing....
I Hate Sauerkraut!!
Yes folks, pieces of "Alberquerque" by Weird Al keep popping into my head. In point of fact, I have never actually tasted sauerkraut, and I'm not entirely sure that I will anytime soon. I'm rambling, and must atempt to write my 10 pg MUN paper by Monday
ttyl to all

Ok, so I haven't exactly been posting. Don't ask me when my last one was, it's quite scary... However, I do read LJ rather often, I just am the silent type (*snort*) who refuses to post. Sorry. But you all can console yourself with the fact that I AM WATCHING. Now try to go to sleep...heh heh heh. The real reason I'm posting is that I couldn't resist sharing this with you, because it made me laugh quite a bit. I love how Taylor is head cheerleader! Too bad he doesn't get on here anymore, I'm sure he would have LOVED that. Sorry to those of you that weren't in high school, guess you were kicked out :-) anyway, must go attempt to write more on Stanford app *rolls eyes* See y'all later! ♥ / Miranda Current Mood: ditzy | | Sunday, August 15th, 2004 | | 2:54 pm |

OK here goes....
This is just to let you all know that i haven't died yet! Probably seems like that, since i've been gone for so long and haven't had much free time to myself on the net, but yes, i'm here. Unfortunately for all of you....heh heh heh. Okay, so let's see...I actually survived the conference thingie in Washington, D.C. In fact, it was a blast! I had a ton of fun in all the simulations (e.g. Security Council and World) and the trips to the Egyptian Embassy and Washington landmarks at night (soooo cool) and the ropes course and other stuff...i even made it through the couple lectures on stuff like globalization. Interesting material presented in a terribly boring fashion. Ah well, the rest of it was wonderful...and i made some new friends :-)....so after those 11 days, my mom came to pick me up and we headed down to the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, VA. All you Euro people should know who William and Mary were...but anyway. It was a beautiful campus....lots of gigantic trees and lawns and flowers. Some of the buildings on the part known as "Ancient Campus" were really old...i was in the building where Thomas Jefferson studied! heee hee hee...awesomeness.... So then i had a few days back at home (mostly to pack) before we all piled in the car to head off to Oregon. It was really wonderful to be able to see my dad's side of the family again (my grandpa, two aunts, and two uncles(duh)) especially since we haven't been able to all get together since my grandmother's funeral 7 years ago. Isn't that sad? Oh and while i'm thinking about it, i know you're all wondering...no, i have NO first cousins, not on my dad's or mom's side. None. Zip. Zilch. Zero. Tis sad...but anyway. Spent some time with them, including a big hike with my Aunt Kate and Uncle Jim, and Uncle Larry, which was way fun...then we went to Southern Oregon to go to a reunion of a branch of mom's family. This is the first one i'd ever been to, even though they hold one every other year....so it was very cool. Lots of people, none of whom i knew, but that was ok. Scott and i ended up playing with two sort of cousins of mine. Don't know if they're like fourth cousins or just way removed. Probably both. So anyway, i'm finally back *pant pant* and have been recently watching awesome Olympic stuff. So there you have it. Didn't tell you about my Florida trip, cuz i saw some of you right after it...maybe i'll tell you about it later.... So, i hope you're all doing fine, and that i get to see all of you (well, those of you who go to Brighton) soon at school! Though i'm not really looking forward to it...(school, not seeing you...lol) ttyl!

Eeep!
Wow...i just looked at my journal and realized i haven't updated since mid-March! The problem is...i have not much to say...lol. I will surely miss all of you this summer....hmmm...mind blank...if i have anything else to say that happens to pop into this 'tabula rasa' of mine (lol!) i shall tell you.

blahish
hm.... i am blahish. is that a word, you ask? It is now!!! I...am...odd-feeling...maybe it was that British candy bar...*shifty eyes* it was yummy, it was...it had "minty bubbles"!!! *deep breath* and... bubblesandbubblesandbubblesandbubblesand bubblesandbubblesandbubbles!!!! lol... my mom and dad brought it back from England. Since they're back from England, i am now back in my house... 'twas fun to be at Meg's, but it sure is nice to be back in my own bed. Nothing like coming home at night and being able to fall into your own, nice bed. Not that i have anything against the beds at Meghan's. They're just not MINE...lol. Yes, well, i hope everyone has a very happy Easter, and that everyone is having a good spring break. ♥ Miranda Current Mood:  blahishCurrent Music: Chicago--The Cellblock Tango | | Friday, March 26th, 2004 | | 8:03 pm |
howdy all y'all peoples!!! well...what shall i say? How about the fact that although homework is oppressive (must do MUN paper, along with much other hw this weekend), i am having a prety good life? How about the fact that despite Ms. Pitts giving me a "project" that has nothing to do with French that will undoubtedly make me extremely nervous when the time comes for it to happen, I am still happy? How about the fact that although my breath probably stinks of garlic right now, i can still smile? lol...jk on that last...but nobody come near me. You have been warned. I guess...my happiness is due to a couple things, one being that New York is over and i no longer have NHSMUN hanging over my head. Another would be my actually stable, happy, extremely enjoyable life that i seem to have at the moment. Happy family is good, seeing friends again is good...i could go on, but i won't, probably b/c you are all snoozing in your seats. Don't deny it...i could hear the zzzz's. It's SPRING!!! (yes, i know you know) *flings bunches of flowers everywhere* yay!!!! oh umm...i'm supposed to be doing research right now....hee hee...maybe i can update some more tomorrow.

Read 3rd
so anyway, after having session from 2 pm the same day as the crisis to about 5:45, we went to Broadway, which was neat. I was wide awake, of course, because i slept until noon. Odd...Today we had our last session, while everyone else had plenary in the GA. We finally finished the first topic, and we got everything passed that we wanted to, with the correct amendments. *sigh* we didn't get to my Africa peacekeeping topic...wish we had. Boy, discussing the same issues on Georgia got boring...sometimes..but that's ok. I'm kinda glad we don't have any more sessions...it's over! But i'm seriously going to try to go next year, i think....it was a good experience...anyway, i'm really glad to be coming home soon and see all of you!! yay!!!! ♥ i be happy....yes. anyway, see y'all soon!!!!!!!
