So school's okay, I guess. Nothing particular to say about it, though Mr. Mintz is the only teacher who I actually know. No more Beeks, no more R Quad... I had to laugh, though. It says something when you get a sudden sense of comfort after the first time your teacher meows. Thank you, Mr. Mintz.
Although... Mrs. Stanley, my lit teacher, has two Star Wars posters and a Chamber of Secrets poster up in her classroom, so that seems promising. =DDD
Also, I'm psyched to have lunch with all the peeps this year. Of course, my first two lunches have been spent helping Echo explain Metal Gear to
![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
artemisrampant. Mostly just the gay. Echo says it's "gayer than yaoi fanfiction" and it "makes the twins look straight." All of this is true.So yeah, pretty much. I think I'm going to watch the Silent Hill movie, but I'm not sure yet. I dunno, maybe tomorrow night... I guess I'll think of more to say later. ^.^

But: I come bearing exceptional news that I would love nothing more than to archive here so that I may look back to it and giggle like a little girl.
I GAVE SNAPEKID A COOKIE.
It was awesome. I had made a giant batch of cookies since it was the last day before finals, and I was walking back from lunch and he was behind me, so I just turned around and was like, "Oh, hey Eli, Rachel said I should give you a cookie." And he actually wasn't too taken aback (maybe he had seen me give one to Ms. Colotti earlier?) and was just like, "Uh... Thank you." So then Echo comes running up to me while I'm at my locker all, "DID YOU GIVE SNAPEKID A COOKIE!!1!??" And I sort of brush it off like, "I dunno, why would you think so?" "BECAUSE I JUST SAW SNAPEKID WALKING DOWN THE HALL EATING A COOKIE."
So anyway, I was in math the next day talking to Rachel, and she's like, "Oh, yeah. Did you give Eli a cookie?" I kinda got worried like, "Did he say something? Wait, you covered for me, right?" And she just laughed, and I'll try to quote this as closely as I can: "Well, my mom picked me up yesterday and I heard Eli yelling at me from the second floor, and I figured he was just trying to mooch a ride off me- because he's SUCH a mooch- and instead he asked like, 'Hey Rachel, did you tell that girl to give me a cookie?' And I was like, 'Uhhhhh... Yeah?' because I heard 'girl' and 'cookie' and I know you think he's funny, so I immediately got this mental image of you in my head, and then he was like, 'Oh, thanks. It was really good.'" And by that time I was bright red and giggling furiously. XDDD I AM SO FAR GONE.
Cookie-ing other people was fun too, like Beekley with her almost biting my arm off with it, and Quadros with his G-rated version of, "HELLZ YEAH I WANT A COOKIE." Actually, that was just one of those things that reminded me how young he is- I think he's only 25 or something. But I saw his senior square in one of the old yearbooks, and it made me wonder why- after writing something nasty and sarcastic enough to even make Snape proud- would you want to go back and teach at a school you hated? He's a little Snape-y, I think, especially with the picture that they had of him. He kinda looked like that kid that didn't have any friends because everyone thought he was creepy. DDD= Maybe that explains why I don't hate him like everyone else does. Hm... I know he thanked me a second time, the day after, probably because no one else gives him stuff like that, even though it went something like, "Oh, Paige-" "Grace." "Huh?" (all Billy-like) "Grace, is my name." (I really look nothing like Paige!)

No, this is not an April Fool's post. I might assume that would come later.
Aside from today (now yesterday) being the Best Day Ever (for reasons at some point explained,) I was confronted with many a Snape-y point of interest, which can all be filed away under the tag of The Debate.
So now I'm getting up to put out my April Fool's stuff. (Oh, I guess this is a little bit April Fool's post. XD)

Yesterday, I believe it was, Peter was telling Emily and I about how he had this dream with Ms. Beekley in it. Also in the dream was a gun. And it just so happened that the gun was in a very angry Ms. Beekley's hand. (This does not, in any way, surprise me.)
Peter also couldn't stop laughing today, with another Japanese encephalitis joke. He was getting all worried like, "Oh my God, what would you do if your brain started blowing up? Would you go to the hospital? Would it just burst your head open? What would you do; what would you say!? To which I responded, "Owwwww."
Watched Dollhouse, whee! Although, I am a little worried about the future of the show (for me) simply because have I ever mentioned how I don't like blood and gaping bullet wounds and knife-slash-someone-maternal-type-things?
I was reading something from my homework outloud to my mum, and instead of saying "devoured by savages," I sort of said "devoured by sandwiches."
I brought up the point this morning: my birthday sort of falls on Good Friday. So in a sense it's like, "GOD IS DEAD. Happy birthday!"
Ok, hey. I know it's ridiculous of me to think I can go a whole post without mentioning Snape, but something about the Debate occurred to me during English class today. You know how we kept talking about Snape and how he was doing the whole martyrdom/self-pitying thing that we didn't really know how to describe or explain? I think I figured it out. I think he has survivor guilt. He blames himself for Lily's death, and so he feels the need to constantly punish himself for it. It's almost like, "No, I don't deserve to be happy because it's my fault." And then, well, he became so accustomed to distancing himself and the whole self-neglect thing, that he eventually became very bitter and cruel, and he didn't really care. (This comes, of course, from Ordinary People, which a few days ago led me to wonder if Sev ever attempted suicide, and if he did, it probably would have been before Dumbles offered him a job since with the job he felt like he was at least working to be forgiven or... Something like that. I dunno. *shrug* This is what happens when you live half your life in your Snape!fic: it gets sort of crazy. XD)
Argh, there were so many things I wanted to post and I can't remember any of them. Oh well, I have a crapload of homework to do.
EDIT: btw? People should not have Buffy spoilers in their avatars. THAT IS SOMETHING I DID NOT NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SPIKE... FOR SEVERAL MORE SEASONS, I THINK.

On Thursday, I had three Palin references: in history ("MAVERICKS!") then in bio, ("Don't you go hatin' on me and Tripp, Mrs. Rowett!") and then in theatre we had a skit where we were the Russians peeking into her living room.
Chevy decided that we should kill two birds with one stone and shave off Mr. Quadros' beard (still ridiculous) and glue it to Ms. Beekley's face when she's asleep in Serino's back room.
lyricalecho's been having a rough time, so I made her brownies and my mum let her borrow a pair of kitchen tongs that she had wrapped in shiny wrapping paper. Long story; you'd 'TL;DR.' You know you like a teacher (Mr. Mintz) when you see him in the parking lot from the bus and go all "=DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD HI MR. MINTZ!!!!" even though you're sure he has no clu that you're there.
I had this dream where I was a secret agent, and this lady came and hugged me and was all, "OH, SWEETIE, IT'S SO GOOD TO HAVE YOU HERE!" and I'm looking over her shoulder like 'nyahhhh' and... Hey, there's Snape. So I'm staring at him, and he walks in, walks through, walks out, and that's the end of it. =D
Emily was attacked by a gorilla in art yesterday. She turned around, stared at the thing, and muttered a small, "Oh shit." It was just as bad as the day before, when she presented her abstract sculpture which represents the socio-economic and moral and divide between Mexico and America. Mrs. Samaha says, "It looks like a butt!" To this, we entered a discussion on whether or not she had just mooned North America, and how Canada was either "Hey, we didn't do anything! What did we do to deserve this!?" (to which Emily replies, "They're part of NATO, of course they had it coming.") or rather "KIDS, DON'T MAKE ME COME DOWN THERE!!!"
Have you ever noticed that you can take any horrible situation, replace one word with 'puppy' or 'puppies' and immediately it's a bazillion times better/ more pleasant?
Mara? She's totally friends with Tracey, a la The Message. We had a complete geek out together over Firefly and Dr. Horrible, and we were singing My Freeze Ray, and the whole things was just amazing. SO much squeeing.
I want to watch Dollhouse this weekend, but I have something decidedly Pressing and Important that really Must Be Done.
Also,
chevy_the_geek, you may want to check out: http://community.livejournal.com/church_So now I'm sitting here watching old Star Trek episodes. Spock is awesome, BTW. He figured out that they could defeat these aliens by making them eat "food" (AKA giant lucky charms) and booze. (Star Trek NG is still my favorite, lyk rlly.)
*pulls out a bottle of alcohol* "Uh... What is this?" "It's... It's... Green!"

Ok, here's something else I should do: I was in history class and Mr. Hanchett was talking about western immigration and stuff, and he mentioned that people went out there for better land. For some reason, this led him to say that the thing he wants most in the world (his Mirror of Erised) is just a tiny square of grass in his backyard. Because, you know, he apparently lives in Sommerville, which really is a "concrete jungle." So, for an Easter/April break present for him, I want to plant some grass seed in a little pot, and maybe stick a little mini birdhouse in it or something. That would be so cute!
Also over April break, I would like to dedicate that week to making a Snape-coat for ComicCon, but I don't know if that'll go through.
Argh, I need to watch Dollhouse. And Buffy.
I think I'm going to go to the movies this weekend; I'd really like to see Frost/Nixon. It's still out, isn't it? I'm pretty sure it is.
ELIZA DUSHKU WAS IN BOTTLE SHOCK!? NOW WHEN I WATCH IT WITH MUM (because I said I would) I KNOW I'M GOING TO FANGIGGLE. (Also, as I pointed out to the Gang, she's so awesome in that movie that she's the one snarking at Alan Rickman. =DDDDDD)
I saw Steven in the library today, and he suddenly broke out into song. "John Jacobs Jingleheimer Schmidt!" I don't remember how Mr. Muller reacted.
I did a very stupid thing at Exit 51. I sort of went with a couple of other people to ask Ms. Beekley what she thought of Mr. Quadros' beard (which still looks ridiculous.) It was a STUPID thing to do. Really, at least when Snape snarks, it's more mean and condescending. When Ms. Beekley snarks, it's like she's trying to make your soul melt into a little puddle of shame. *Ali leans over, "Argh, stop backpedaling! You're making it worse!"* God, I think she loves how upset she makes me.
You know what I find interesting? The Insider (or whatever it's called) was on, and it seems like every five seconds there's like, "HAY GUYZ! MAH SEKRIT WEDDINS, LET ME SHOW U DEM!" I suppose I find that most annoying because of that bit of my Life's Work. It's like, "Okay, they didn't do it in secret because they wanted you to analyze everything, post pictures everywhere, and say horrible things about them. What is this 'secret' of which you speak?" Anyway, that's sort of a personal rambling (though Snape wholly agrees and says: DDDDD:<)
I was watching tv with Mum and there was a commercial for NEIL PATRICK HARRIS ON ELLEN HOLY FRICKING FRICK ON A BISCUIT- I was squeeing so hard, and I can only imagine that, had she seen it, ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
chevy_the_geek would have had a coronary. Or her eyeballs would have popped out. That happened on House one time, you know. BUT NEVERMIND THAT. I saw a couple of pics from
![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif){kind=small}
church_of_nph and he's wearing this adorable little sweater vest, and have I ever mentioned how much I love sweater-vests and holy CRAP IT WAS SO CUTE.Last thing. Everyone knows about this, but this is technically a journal, so I'm putting it down anyway. I mentioned before how I had this dream and all I could remember from it was Snape saying, "I would prefer if you would refrain from petting me like a rabbit." So now
lyricalecho periodically pets my head until I say that. (Probably also because my hair is amazingly soft and so much better than hers ;3) But anyway (with my Freeze Ray~) Echo and Chevy were in health and they learned that an infant or young child should be touched at least 100 times a day because it improves self-esteem. This has led to various members of the Gang incessantly patting/poking each other while chanting "self-esteem, self-esteem, self-esteeeeeeem..." Hint: The effects are not the same if you practically hit the person, whilst screaming in their face, "SELF-ESTEEM, SELF-ESTEEM, SELF-ESTEEEEEEEEEM!!!"
Bruins game tomorrow! *Edgey!whoop!*

I don't have time on account of history and english papers, but these are very important things.
- I wanted to watch The Wish, but D came over for dinner and danced around the kitchen with the breadbasket on his head for about six and a half seconds. I will watch it... ASAP. Promise.
- Finish the Royal fic that I stumbled across earlier today.
- Print out part of the Life's Work for
hey_lookit because I said I would.- Watch The Target, pour le Dollhouse.
- Post here that Mr. Quadros is trying to grow a beard, and I can no longer look at him without laughing because it is so ridiculous-looking.
BTW? In the argument between Rook and Luvander (I believe?) regarding the word 'pissant?' It is a word, because Spike used it, and Spike knows everything, including the fact that mini marshmallows are little powdered blobs of healing and sugar (but mostly sugar.)
Castle Malloy and the seventy year-old orphaned bog lady with a jet pack? The end was =DDD with the outtakes especially. "Come on, let me open the box. Please? Please, please, please, pleeeeeeease?"
There was a first season House on, and younger!Wilson is even more adorable, and I think the end was the first time I ever truly 'D'awwwwww'd' at a House episode.
My mum and I just watched a short French film about a monk who tries to catch a fish. I go and comment on how European animation makes me infinitely happy, and how the monk floating away with the fish is representative of finding peace with nature. My brother says, "THAT'S NOT PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE, STUPID FRENCH PEOPLE." Well, ma petit frere, ur face iz st00pid.
EDIT: Huh. My mum just pointed out how in love she is with the French language. "It's like flowers!" she says. "When I hear people speak it, it almost makes me want to cry inside. It's like when someone who loves music hears a really beautiful piece of music and they cry..." And then she flipped to the State of the Union quick and said, "OOH, NANCY PELOSIIIIII~ I WANT TO STICK YOUR EYES OUT WITH HOT POKERRRRRRSSSSS..."
On that note, I got to go to bed nao.

No, really. I mean, at least it was about thirty seconds or so of watching The Grinch before I thought that, so I have SOME hope, right? Right? Ugh... *I found a neat vid on Youtube, though. He had a really great "seasick crocodile" face, as well as plenty of raised-eyebrows looks, all "What did you just call me? Is that even a word?"
I'm wholly pleased with all the people I've scarred with the previous post. XD
I went to a hockey game last weekend, and I kept hearing snippets of conversation from these two guys behind us. One such snippet went, "Your Honor? Um... The first witness I'd like to the stand is - uh - a penguin?"
I NEED TO GET TYLER TO PLAY PROFESSOR LA
I NEED TO GET D TO WATCH STARDUST!
I NEED TO GET ERIKA TO READ HAVEMERCY!
I was in Psych, and we're talking about mental disorders and stuff. Oh, and BTW? "If a friend calls you neurotic, then you should not say thank you! if your friend calls you psychotic... You should punch them in the face." ANYWAY, so Mr. Mintz is like, "So how do you classify mental disorders? What can you say about those people?" And Steven says, "Uh... Abby- something." XD And then, later, "Okay. So, before they had mental hospitals, what did they do?" And again Steven says immediately, "SHE'S A WITCH! BUUURN 'ER!"
"And it's not my nose, it's a false one!" "BUUUUUURN 'ER ANYWAY!"
Ok, so there's this teacher in the Upper House (who I'm pretty sure is in the English department) and the joke is that he looks like an unattractive Alan Rickman. *I know, I can't picture that either.* But I described him as "If Alan was, you know, a regular old guy and not hot." So yeah, so I'm in B Lunch so I sometimes see him around, and yesterday I actually heard him say something, which, he doesn't, usually. I should not have been so surprised by his lack of a British accent. D=
I brought in cookies for some friends. I saved one for Ms. Beekley, but I eated it.
OKAY TGIO PARTY - I NEED TO WATCH (in order of how important, I think:)
- Objects In Space/ Serenity
- Hitchicker's Guide to the Galaxy (For Echo, who has ashamedly never seen it. I would have thought it would be her bible.)
- Hellboy II
- Haruhi or Ouran; the latter, I think.
- Buffy?
I dunno. That's still alot of stuff. I also want to read Breaking Dawn, just because I've heard that it's a total acid trip.
In addition to that, as if I needed more, I've started watching House with my mum. First off, Hugh Laurie is awesome. Second, I had remembered Robert Sean Leonard from Dead Poet's Society, and so now I've added Dr. Wilson to the List because they are, of course, one and the same. SERIOUSLY, THOUGH. They took ickle!DPS!Neil and stuck his head on a man body and said, "Voila! More hot doctors!" He is very cute, though. He had boyish charm. XD
Do you know who else has boyish charm? Anderson Cooper. He's on the top of my mum's List, aside from, you know, like, her boyfriend. She even squees a little bit when he's on tv, and she's soooo happy that he's doing some 60 Minutes now. He was on with Michael Phelps, actually, and they had a race. Like, in the pool? I think we all know where this is going, and I can only imagine how many brain cells my mum lost when she saw him in those cute little swimming trunks. He, in addition to Neil/Dr. Wilson, is very cute (and buff! He's like, sort of a small guy, but he is ripped! XDDDD) I sort of added him too.
Today, my French teacher made the funniest noise, just because it was just like the one my dad makes when he's frustrated. It's like "AH, crap." But with only the "AHHHHHHHHHHK." He seemed a little embarrassed, and he looked around, all, "Crap, did anyone hear me do that?"
Also today, Ms. Beekley was going over The Catcher In the Rye, and she got into a small dispute with someone. "Why is the Doberman important?" she asks. And this kid replies, "Because it was Jane's dog, and that's how she met Holden; it was pooping in his yard." And she says, like it's the most important thing in the world, "It didn't poop!" "Didn't it?" "IT PEEEEEEEEEEED!"
I swear to God.
I wish I hadn't laughed so hard.

Happy Talk Like A Pirate Day!
Unfortunately, I did not find the time to rewatch POTC: AWE today. Such shame. Also, the shame in NOT REMEMBERING OH WOE IS ME WHAT KIND OF PIRATES FAN A
However, though I have not seen it in an unholy amount of time, I could never forget how much I LOVE Davy Jones. Ok, maybe I did a little bit, but it's not fair. Really. I mean, aside from the slimy, and the tentacle-y, and the soul-stealing... Someone needs to give Davy Jones a big, fuzzy, warm-the-barnacles-right-off-you hug. They would no doubt need a stepstool (or a stepladder for Phoenix fans,) what with him being an enormous seven-foot squid monster, but a hug is still in order. Maybe it's because I see him as having a hopeless case of Snape-syndrome, but I won't get into all that. CALL ME CRAZY. But really, if Tia/Calypso had been a little more considerate, Davy would have been a (not really) nice pirate, who I can totally see as another badass like Barbossa (DUDE, HUMAN!DAVY HAS THE SAME BEARD.)
Speaking of which, Barbossa is awesome. =D More on this later.
In other news, I saw Mr. Muller walking into school today when I was coming in on the bus. Contrary to [my] popular belief, he does not drive the Batmobile. That, and (though things like this are quite infrequent in the non-honors class,) I happen to bring in something extra for my French class: just a National Geographic picture of the Rose Window in Notre Dame. My French teacher was so excited, I thought he was going to pee himself.

Now, I don't think starting a Livejournal just after the first week of school is a very smart thing to do, but I am indeed doing it, because I'm sure I'll find some super amazing fandom-y things at school, right? Riiiiight.
So, I don't know if too many people would actually READ this stuff, and I doubt it, but I'm going to pitch it to you anyway and perhaps find some neat communities and things like that. Because, of course, this is Livejournal and not silly Facebook. X.x
I'll probably be posting random fangirlings, and fandom rants and other things relating to Harry Potter (SNAPE IN PARTICULAR OMG ILU,) Phoenix Wright (especially,) Fruits Basket, Zelda, Monty Python, Avatar: TLA, Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog (also big right now,) Batman, Miyazaki films, general comic books and other fandoms that I have either forgotten at the moment or will somehow stumble upon later. *wow*
FOR EXAMPLE: It has recently been brought to my attention that my best friend/partner in crime/Remus Lupin fangirllyricalecho's history teacher is able to remember which US state is Nebraska due to its resemblance to Boba Fett's spaceship AS SEEN HERE.
This tidbit of (non)information of course has absolutely NO use in the real world, but we don't really care about that do we? Anyway, later on I'll reiterate my stories from the San Diego Comic Con (which was epic,) my ongoing battle to complete a snape fanfiction (or two or three,) the wonders of creepyface, and maybe you'll even learn the secrets of The List.
