current song: "Are You Ready" by Three Days Grace

Hey, haven't updated in a while. I'm keeping my own diary now, although I'm not much of a diary person. I had a diary for a portion of last year, and I plan to get a new notebook for each year, so I can look back on them as an adult. My childhood is very important, and I want to remember everything.

I'm in a pretty good mood. I got an A- on my Math Notebook, which is a miracle in Mr. Marlowe's class. Last quarter I got a B, and the quarter before I got a B+. It's all good. I took a Math test recently, and got a 99!! Holy crap!! I guess Geomatry isn't as hard as it looks ;). My Science project earned a 98, and I got a 94 on my Spanish test. Oh, and tomorrow is the first day of SPRING VACATION!!! I'm so excited! I'm hoping to go to Pensylvania over the break. I love Pensylvania. My dad grew up there, and it's pretty special to me. The quiet, tranquility of the countryside is very appealing to me, although I do love the noisy city of NY, where I live.

In other news, I've finally produced another music video. The weird thing is that it isn't about Teen Titans. My TT videos are currently on hiatus. This music video is my first video about El Goonish Shive, an awesome webcomic that I'm reading. The song is Nobody's Home, by Avril Lavigne, and is centered around Ellen, my third favorite character.

Hmm... I'll post the link later :P.

Wow, I haven't updated in forever.

No, no new music video. I've been having trouble with that lately. I have so many ideas for AMVs, but somehow I can never finish them like I could before. But I determined to make another. I'm working on one right now. It's about Teen Titans, and it's a team tribute. A good-bye video for the end of the series. I hope to make AMVs for other cartoons, too. I've been looking for episode downloads for W.I.T.C.H. (although I never watch that show anymore), but couldn't find any. If only I could find someway to get the episodes from the DVD.

On another note, I'm high on Breaking Benjamin and Linkin Park. I listen to Linkin Park day and night, and they are easily becoming my favorite band. But just yesterday I listened to Breaking Benjamin's "We Are Not Alone" and fell in love all over again. Some of my favorite songs by them are "Breakdown", "Away", "Believe", "Firefly", "Rain", and "Home". I'm a big fan of their's. It's too bad they aren't as famous as other nu-metal bands like Linkin Park. But, I suppose it's good to like a slightly 'underground' band too (although Breaking Benjamin is definetly popular enough. They aren't and underground sort of band. They just aren't all that mainstream. Which is good, I suppose).

I got my report card back >.<. I did better. I only got an 80 average in Math, though. I got a 90 in Humanities, whuch is good, I guess. I expected so much more, I'm one of the top students in that class. I only got a 85 in Science! That is very unfair. I don't understand how I could get something that low. I ace all her tests (I really do!), my homeworks are good enough, I participate in class, my projects achieve really high grades, how could I get an 85?! I'm thinking that I may have to improve on the quality of my homeworks. That, and making sure every single assignment is turned in. My homeworks aren't bad in Science, but there is always room for improvment.

I got a 99 in Music, but everybody does well in Music. Even if you don't know your instrument, you can get a high grade. Same for Art.

In Spanish, I'll just have to improve a bit on my test scores. Everything else is perfect. My fucking Math teacher is ruining EVERYTHING! He is seriously impossible, and I'm not the only one having some difficulties. On our most recent test, EVERYBODY was complaining that it was too hard. It was insane! Even the nerds complain about him.

Guess, what? Yesterday I didn't have to go to school either! Nearly the whole week I missed school! Yay for selfish transit workers! The bad news is that the strike ended today so I am being FORCED to go to school tomorrow. Boo. Oh, well. Tomorrow is Friday, and then Christmas vacation! Yes! Also, we probably won't do much tomorrow because the teachers haven't been teaching anything new the past week (so I've heard from a friend of mine. Thank you, Jacob! ^_^). The extremely bad part is that a huge Math assignment is due tomorrow, and I completely forgot about it! Oh, well. I'll just think of an excuse. The only danger is that Mr. Marlowe might call my parents >.<. Damn.

I'm working on another music video. A Robin tribute. That's all I'm gonna say! See you tomorrow... after school >.<.

Hello, everyone. In New York, the subway workers have gone on strike! The only good part about this is that I go to school in Manhatten, but live in Brooklyn, and the subway is the only way I can really get to school (cars? Puh-leeze). So I have NO SCHOOL! I missed school yesterday, and today. I will have to go tomorrow. Oh, well. That means only two more days of school and then WINTER VACATION! I won't have school for fourteen days! Am I the luckiest girl in the world? Am I? Eh?

I've made a new video. Another Robin/Starfire tribute. Hey, what can I say? I love that couple (look at my frikkin' username!). But you know what really pisses me off? When people don't even try to diversify their music videos. I know one MV maker, who's favorite character is Raven. And EVERY SINGLE ONE OF HER VIDEOS is related to Raven. Although my two favorite characters are Robin and Starfire, and my favorite couple is R/S, I make tons of videos about other couples and characters!

Oh, anyways, here's the video. This is the second video I've made that has merged clips in it. When someone sees an MV, they tend to think higher of the video that has merged clips. It makes it look more sophisticated. So I try. I'm pretty proud of this one.

|| Smoke and Mirrors ||

It's not exactly a happy MV, but it isn't anti-Robin/Starfire.

No TV XP

crushed

current mood: crushed
current song: Fix You - Cold Play

It's so weird, I hardly watch TV anymore. The only show that I could watch last week was the new Teen Titans episode, "Lightspeed". It was so fluffy! Kid Flash/Jinx is one my favorite couples now. Madam Rouge is such a b*tch! Kid Flash is kind of cute, and I have more respect for Jinx now. The next new episode of Teen Titans is in three hours, "Revved Up". I sure hope here is some R/S fluff. I miss that. There hasn't been too much this season so far.

My Favorite TV shows:
1) Teen Titans
2) Inuyasha
3) Batman (various versions)
4) Avatar: The last Airbender.

Couples:
Teen Titans - Robin/Starfire, Beast Boy/Terra, Kid Flash/Jinx, some BB/Rae, Cyborg/Raven, RedX/Starfire and Red X/Blackfire, and Robin/Terra.
Inuyasha - Inuyasha/Kagome, Inuyasha/Kikyo
Avatar - Prince Zuko/Katara
Harry Potter - Harry/Hermione

Teen Titans music videos

satisfied

current mood: satisfied

Ok...
On "Windows Movie Maker" (an awesome program that allows you to make moves), people can import Teen Titans episodes to WMM, add music, and create a music video! It's pretty fun. I've only made Teen Titans videos so far, but plan to make them to other cartoons soon.

Since I'm near obsessed with the Robin/Starfire couple, here are all my R/S vids:

School: Love or Hate?

November 25th, 2005 (10:15 am)
okay

current mood: okay
current song: Lithium by Nirvana

Yep... school. Can't live with it, can't live without it. Well, I could definetly live without it -_-'. I just got my report card, and I didn't do as well as I expected. It's always the little things that bring me down, like missed homework or lateness. My STUPID Humanities teacher gave me an 85 average because I missed some homeworks and I got a few low scores on my vocab tests. Those tests aren't even important! But... I have made a pact to study a bit more and to turn in ALL of my homework.

But the real subject I have to worry about is Math. My math teacher is absolutly dreadful! Everybody hates him. He's a downright asshole! This is the only class where I have low participation. But whenever I raise my hand, he refuses to call on me! I'm not being a baby by saying that - it's true! Sometimes I'm the only one raising my hand and he calls on somebody else.

Besides studying, I have a crush. Phil *dreamy eyes*. I was never interested in boys. I hadn't had a crush since the sixth grade! But somehow I'm smitten with this guy :3. He has long-ish brown hair, beautiful brown eyes, and these adorable freckles! Ah! He is to die for!

Ok... I'm done :D.

Happy Thanksgiving!

hyper

current mood: hyper

It's Thanksgiving! Yes! Every thanksgiving we get a turky (that seems to get bigger every year. Last year it was 16 pounds, and this year it's 24 pounds 0_0) that we never seem to finish XD. My family usually has a small Thanksgiving. The only people beside my mom, dad, and younger sister (who live with me) that come is my grandma. It's fun all the same. We always buy an ice cream cake shaped like a turky, and I always cook my fanmous mashed potatoes! I'd addicted to the stuff.

Ah, I'm so bloated XP. I always fill up on mashed potatoes. Somehow, I get full very quickly. My grandma wants me to copy her a CD of French music. Bleh. French music is okay, but I iwhsh I could understand it. In the sixth grade, I started to learn French. But then when I entered the seventh grade in another school, I had to take Spanish. Now I only understand a little bit of French. I hope to learn it all someday.

Happy Thanksgiving!
