Tropical islands.

I hate internet cafes.They're absolutley disgusting. Ugh.

I don't want to think about all the people who have touched this keyboard. This screen resolution might make me cry. The version of Internet Explorer is so cringe worthy. Is tabbed browsing really too much to ask for?

What's more, it hurts being this close to a computer without WOW installed, or even Aion. (Funny side note: I've been offline for two hours, and I come back to find my guild has started playing Aion. Two days ago, they hated the idea of playing it.)

To make matters even worse, I'm on a tropical island. Sure, it's the first time I've been off the tiny little boat I'm living on with my family, but it's sunny. ... I'm still pale as anything, though. White, nerdy skin = WIN. If I can't be a nerd here, I'll damn well look like a nerd.

Ugh. I'll be gaming again on Friday, thank god.

Books, sailing and whatever else pops into my head.

I'm going sailing tomorrow. Should be rather enjoyable, though the lack of internet shall test me. Oh dear.

I woke up today and decided to pack. First thing: books.

That was a really stupid idea. I started off with a pile of 5 books. But then I had no idea how many I'd need. So I decided to sit down and read some books, to see how long they'd take me. I can get through a medium sized novel (350ish pages) in 3ish hours. So I decided I'd need a lot more than 5 books.

At the moment I have...

Books that I haven't read:

The Elegance of the Hedgehog

Lord of the Flies

Procession of the Dead

(... wow. Book of the words.)

The Lost Symbol

A Clockwork Orange

Books I have read but want to read again:

Looking for Alaska

Paper Towns

Dark Moon

Legend

... I still don't think that's enough. I'll probably end up chucking in the complete works of Shakespeare, 'cause they're sitting right here and look like they want to be read. Wouldn't mind some Homer or Virgil either.

Anyway, I thought about books a shitload. Then decided I should probably pack clothes. It is now 9pm, and I still haven't packed shit.

I might go game. (Y)

Oh my fucking God.

I got a Venomhide Ravasaur hatchling! Way too adorable.

*squee*

I recently reorganised my sound system. Which involved getting new headphones, 'cause both of my pairs have broken. ): I got a new gaming headset, 'cause I needed the mic badly, and they have blue LEDs. Sadly, I couldn't replace my Sennheisers. Damnit. They're so expensive but so nice. <3

Ah well.

I bought a floppy hat, a couple of dresses and pretty new heels. They're shiny. I also got a skirt. It's shiny as well.

Ah, Nathan Fillion, how I love you.

I played some Halo 3: ODST today with a friend and another friend and a super nerd who is also a friend and someone who does not game at all. Ever. 'Twas fun. We ate smarties and then ran the streets in my Pikachu costume.

Speaking of friends, I hate drunk teenagers. I went to a party for the first time in ages the other day, and I reminded myself why I don't go out much. I can't stand watching my friends drink more than someone ever should, hook up with someone just because they're there and that's what people do. I had a friend walk up to me and start discussing who they were going to sleep with, just because they could. Whatever happened to self-respect?

/sigh

Oh well. After making sure no one fell in the pool, I left and returned to my guild. I've decided I really don't care how lame that is. If me preferring to hang out with nerds who care about themselves, instead of drunk teenagers making stupid decisions is uncool, then fuck me, I'm as uncool as it gets. (:

Well, that's my rant.

Ooooh, text from Shane.

Okie dokie, that's nice.

Anywho... I don't know.

Live long and prosper. For the Horde!

Happy.

Some things just make me smile. Like green tea. And dinosaurs. And the cello. And Savory Deviate Delights. And Shane. (:
