Sum total of the spaces between us

1) Thank you for the lovely birthday wishes and gifts! I'm so lucky to have had such a good year in fandom. You guys make me so happy. <3 I had a rather expensive tapas/sushi dinner where I had decent sashimi (my love) but the ice cream was very good. Green tea and black sesame goodness! I would post a picture but...LJ is being stupid and its on my brother's phone. xD

2) Today is the first day of a two day tournament. I can only lost one out of 5 rounds to qualify for the "go round" since I doubt I'll win all 5 and autoqualify...then I have to debate in the go rounds and win and I WILL BE ON THE BUS TO THE STATE TOURNAMENT. Its my last year and I'm the varsity chair and I didn't go last year but I didn't do that well today after bombing my second round to a bad debater but I CAN DO THIS. I HAVE MY PRIORITIES SET. jaklg;jhaljg /endattempttopsychselfup

3) I have my last state qualifying debate tournament so I won't be that active but AFTER I shall have lots of art! There is...Arthur in shorts, Dean/Cas, and Arthur/Eames snuggling in chibi form. AND  in one of the rooms there was THIS CHIBI OF CASTIEL AND IT SAID "CASTIEL WAS HERE" and I just about flipped out....sadly the picture is...not on me....but I'll post it soon. :)

4) LEGEND OF KORRA APRIL 14th!!! I don't have the channel and I have a wedding to be at by 5pm but I'll be damned if I don't watch it at 11am. I am more for Korra than Game of Thrones. I want to wait until its all out. Oh the drama of waiting for a new episode of TV...

Going to be super rambly, so just a heads up.

1. RL update

Internship! It was amazing and I'm sad it over and excited for our science project continuation we will be doing.
Seven acres of boggy beauty. <333 The people I met there are so different from my usual group, but we got into shenanigans and derped around and infected the professor with our herp(es) derping. ITS LIKE HERPES GLITTER THAT GETS EVERYWHERE. \0/ Lots of pun-ing and reading and OMG SHOOTING STARS AND NORTHERN LIGHTS and snow in july . I'm so surprised we got along so well. ;___; There were dogs in restaurants and dessert pizza and s'mores and curry.

Books are amazing
Lots of reading (summer hw) and its so ~nature-y up there at dusk (just finished Their Eyes Were Watching God and halfway through Glass Menagerie) that I had an wanky note written and a few tears to Tracy Chapman's Fast Car. Her voice and the books and the night and the stars and idk, life. The trapped feeling is so Glass Menagerie, and the escapism and sometimes it hurts a little too close to home and I have not finished the book yet. Then just rereading All the Pretty Horses because...I love coming-of-age novels, as if they'll help me find my way. Also because my mother told me to moderate my emotions and I realize I should(strains of Vienna-Billy Joel start playing) but...just read On the Road too and the whole "mad" thing and the way McCarthy has passion for the blood that sings, and the words ardenthearted just stuck. ;___; His words are so pretty, his long run on sentences and the feelings. The opening with a candleflame reminds me of the first sentence with a drop of blood on the snow. <3 I accidentally spilled water on my All the Pretty Horses and so its hard to read. >.> Also always wondered if the lullaby has anything to do with the title...its missing "little" in front of horses but the tune is really pretty. xD

School starting ridiculously early but I have good classes (I tell that to myself, because we have new teachers for some). I have super procrastination stress that's going to manifest, I just know it. I have 2 books to skim and 5-7 pages to write and I made a bad today. Its super cute, but I need priorities. *sigh*

2. Art!

So I drew a lot when I was up camping, and have gotten back and finished up 2(one goes with Keane's song Somewhere Only We Know SO WELL and the other is mermaid!AU, made a new one, and have more to finish (AmberSpyglass!AU. Why is there no Dark Materials AU? ;___;)
Had my first posted collab with this piece. 8D

MY FRIEND MADE PLUSHIES OF A/E, AND THEN A STORY. SO CUTE. <3333 I touched Eames. ;D

3. Oh god words.
x--x have an artpiece that I wanted to write to because I'm not sure but there was just a feeling i wanted to convey with it and now words are so hard. Its just Arthur in the picture but its from a 3rd person w/ Eames mind, and he goes kind of crazy and his projection of Arthur is there to take him farther into crazyland. IDK. NOT SURE. *hides in corner*

Guys, you writers are amazing.
