Unfortunately, that's just how my dad is. One goes, the rest follow. He's a tyrant. The only reason why I'm still here is because my mum is begging me to stay and wait out the rest of my high school before I leave. I can leave, to another friend's place, she'd be happy to house me, but my mum has a point, I wouldn't even be able to afford rent if I did leave, unless I took up extra shifts and have no life, I'd be broke the next day. I quite seriously would crush my mum if I disappeared now...
But, believe me, it's tempting to just buy a ticket for the next bus out of town and run. My father made me grow up so fast, I barely had a childhood. Now he's so tight about letting me leave, and if I do leave, he drops me off wherever and expects to pick me up from the same place... I don't feel nearly as free as I should... I know he cares, but it's complete bullsh*t.
When I voice my concerns to him, he doesn't listen to me, he makes up his own things and believes that instead. I walked out on this kind of arguments with him because trying to get him to listen is like trying to get lemon juice from an apple; it just doesn't happen.
Right, sorry. I just had to dump that before I went crazy with despair.
Anyways....
Vexen has sweet blood? Maybe a vampire will attack you someday... Twilight style. xD
If...your mother cares she should not force you stay. My mother did the same damn thing with my father in my teenage years, wanting me to stay for her and my brother >.> It's selfish but looking after yourself comes first in such an environment. Of course my saying this wont change anything, it's your choice what you do. And if you were achually willing to speak of why you left perhaps your friend's parents would be willing to help?
I have to tell my parents i am moving out, go STRESS.

My stress is over my cat. I have to take him to the Vet on Thursday since that was the closest they could squeeze him in. His eye... I can't figure out what's wrong with it and that is what I want them to concentrate on. What worries me is that I know he is overweight. I am working on that. I just don't want them to focus on that. I know he is fat just tell me what the **** is wrong with his eye!
Ah, Roxas, that reminds me of my friend. D: *huggles*
I'm currently stressing over my last year of high school. And I haven't even started it yet! *slams head on wall* Four more weeks, four more weeks. I do NOT want to think about college right now, thank you, father, so stop sending me things related to colleges. The last time you did, I freakin lost it. <3 I want to focus on my classes and you know, actually graduating.
*grabs a blanket and goes to curl up with Riku*

I would, Nath, but her family is screwed up as is, and I dislike being a burden. She's got her own problems, and some of them are things I'd rather not be involved in.
I'm glad I've got a little while to go before I start thinking of things like university. Another year of high school before I have to do much. And even then, I still want to go to Japan for a year after school on exchange. But yeah, if not, it's technical college for me, for a crash course in Sound Engineering.
I know how you feel Seph, I lost my beloved little kitty/familiar back in May. :(
Urf, I don't miss that stress of college/end of high school. >_O Then again, I started getting recruitment stuff from college my SOPHMORE year of high school. I sh*t you not.
Sure Nath - conflicting schedules make it hard to continue over AIM at the moment, especially since during the week I have to go to bed at a decent hour so I don't fall asleep at the wheel driving to work in the morning. >_

That's about the time I got my college recruitment in the mail. I find it amusing sometimes, though, when they send me stuff for the army and stuff. Cause that is just so not me. xD But my father is just...'you should think about this.' 'what are you doing about college?' 'you should go do a tour.'
...*slams head*
*huggles Nath* :3 *curled up with Riku still*

*snerk* Oh yeah, I remember getting the military recruitment stuff... I think I even got a call or two from the National Guard or something. XD
However, if you're starting senior year in the fall, this really IS the time to do tours of prospective colleges/unis, since you generally will be putting in your applications around December/January. Also? Quite often, if you do a tour of a college, they'll waive the application fee (which is generally anywhere from $30-60). Even if you're undecided on where you want to go or what you want to go for, it's a good idea to visit some different campuses just to see what you do/don't like. /advice-lecture-thing
Urm... I'm currently blanking on everything right now.... let me get back to you on that.

Zexion, we are NOT talking about the pencil that stabbed me in the face. That pencil was vicious, I tell you! It was just waiting for Finals to weaken my defences and then attempt to FEED ON THE TASTY BRAINS TURNED TO MUSH!!
...*achem!* right. Moving on. ¬_¬
*big big hugs for Roxas and Nathy with the troublesome parentals* *also big hugs for Sephiroth and his kitty* *hugs for Riku and Nathy for school stress* *hugs for Zexion* That's a lot of hugs.
Also... no vampires. Especially not stupid, freaking SPARKLY vampires. Gods, I remember when vampires used to be cool... back in the 80s... non-emo, non-sparkly, bad-@$$ vampires. Who rode motorcycles. *nods* Oooh Lost Boys... .... ... oh gods that was more that two decades ago... T_T
I feel old... like Vexen.

...the finals that term SUCKED. I think we lost so much sleep that we turned into pseudo-zombies. Itty bitty dorm room with the crazy Asian girl next door didn't help. >_O
Oh man, I know! Gyah, how sad is it that the movies we grew up loving are now considered classics? *pouts* I too, feel old. *covers grey hair*

It's true, I'm telling you! It wanted to feast on my brains! @_@ and yes, the finals then were horrible. And the crazy girl next door was in my Japanese class. And I really couldn't look her in the face after that time I heard her having... "fun" times with her boyfriend through the wall. *shudders*
Trauma is knowing the intimate dirty details of your classmates smex lives. True facts.
*hugs Zexion* alas! our movies.. our music... oh man, I almost cried yesterday when Enter Sandman came on the oldies station. Metalica! on the OLDIES! T_T

No kidding! So much trauma we had that year. >_O Remember Lucas and Crazy Heather? *shudders*
*weeps* Good lord Vex, we're getting OLD. Because I seriously remember watching the music video for that song when it first came out! Hell, I remember the Metallica vs. Napster fiasco!
....does anyone besides me even remember Napster? *sigh* Ah the days when it was so much easier to acquire music.

Aw, it's fine, Nath. I'm pretty much brain dead when it comes to RPing as well. My muse crawled into a hole and died.
Yay~hugs. I'm planning on doing some tours later on in the year. I'm already accepted into the small community college, so I can take classes during my senior year. Yay for not having to take math~
I miss the old Bad-@$$ vampires. ;^; Now it's always Edward this and Edward that. Why? WHY?! D:

I remember Napster... hell I remember vinyls being cool still in the early 90's and seeing them make an early comeback. I feel older than dirt. Thank you, entertainment industry, thank you.
I am glad I only have one year of college left before freedom!
We should recruit the way the Organization does... invade, pick out the best candidate, kill off all the rest, and then steal the last guy's Heart while expecting him to be perfectly obediant to our every whim and not try and turn on us. *snicker* It's a brilliant plan, obviously!

I loved HP. I still really like it. HP is out here now.
I HATED book 6 lol.
I happened to like 7....despite the repetitiveness, the fanfic likeness and the fact she killed off my fave characters so now I'm left with 2 I actually like :L. Mind you I only liked about 7 of them.
I've actually been looking into True Blood. I've just never had the time to watch it. xD Too busy mourning for Blood Ties and looking for the Season 1 DVD.
Whooo! HP fans! I can't help but love it...I grew up with it. *laughs* I actually enjoyed all the books, until I got to book seven. I was so into it and then BAM, she throws in almost a whole new plot line to it. @___@
*pokes at the tear stains on the pages* Er...I sobbed? I can't watch the movies without crying when any character that died comes on.
Hah I love HP but I have yet to finish book 7 ... >__O I'm to the point where I just need to start over fresh and plow through it. *sigh*
Speaking of vampires... Gods, I miss Moonlight. That was a GOOD show. And then it got cancelled because it actually had a PLOT... and GOOD vampires. *pouts*
*pokes the holes in Vexen's plot*
*snerk* There was a Harry Potter fanclub at my college. It was hilariously awesome and nerdy. XD

I have never heard of a lot of these or just don't them and thus don't read them.
In other news I am immensely relieved the kitty is fine. :3 It seems something scratched his eye and irritated it. I have eye drops to keep out infection, but the vet said it was healing just fine. It put a dent in my wallet, but the peace of mind was well worth it.
I has Gifts! I have uploaded these for a friend (Crabofdoom on Yaoi gallery, he is making me a sketch of Vincent in return!) but you guys can grab them too!
Soundtracks!

Reminds me of me and my cousin. We had a billion and one arguments during my one week stay in Sydney. I dislike his attitude towards gays and he has no idea what I see in them. Then there were issues about me and my imagination, my liking for stuffed animals, my habit in reading books, not being interested in sport, not being able to rollerskate, wanting my brother to help clean, not laughing at my brother because he's hurt... The list goes on.
Other than that, we get along fine. xD
Thankies Nath! I lost the link that Cloudy-kins gave me a while back for that massive list of FF soundtracks. Do you happen to have it?
I found some of them do not work Rox, you download them, and they say password required even though the woman who upped them kept saying it was not happening >.>
But get what you can ^^
For everyone else, this has a large compilation of Final soundtracks as well as the Black Mages.
I just downloaded the Dissidia one and it's perfectly fine. I have a bunch of game music sitting around here on discs.. I can't do massive uploads but if you see one or two you like..
I live in the Bible belt I know my share of conservatism to the point of assholism. In fact I associate that with most of them here. Since 99% will not listen to reason. Some even think Democrats are going to hell for not voting for a Republican :D. Then again I also know the Democratic Party member. She is pretty high up and gets her framing from me. She is a lovely lady. I love the fact she does lots of charities to help with breast cancer.
It has been a long weekend. Mum thinks its strange I'm not interested in Uni. I used to want to go. Now, not so much lol.
____________________________________
Ahhhh Religion. My friend and I got into an arguement after which we both decided it was safer if we didn't speak on the matter at all, so if it does come up she either leaves or I keep my trap shut =D
I ain't religious but if I have to pick I usually say I'm Protestant rather than agnostic or athiest. I do believe in God though but I can't name the testements or the phrase thingys...oh that was terrible - Phrase thingys?
8D I don't know why religion has reminded me on this but I don't understand what SNP think they'll achieve by Scottish independence. OH great...now the English realise we don't particularly like them (although I've liked every English person I've met). What do they think is going to happen? Scotland's going to be great and glorious? PLeeeaassseeeeee. Westminster slashed our budget and now the schools have NO money at all. Yes its going great...
And of the things on high priority...why does the SNP want a Scottish representative at EUROVISION? when the whole point is about unity and friendly rivalry?

Oh and heehehehehehehehe P Diddy. He can't have a clue that his name is amusing to us. LMAO. No one should call themselves Diddy.
Well yippee. My friend just baled cinema because its cheaper elsewhere so is now going with her family. I haven't seen her since 12th June. I was really looking forward to it too.
And then there's Uni. All my friends actually lead back to the one I managed to make on my own. Seems no matter what the story always ends the same.
Spend all your time waiting, For that second chance, For a break that would make it OK
There's always some reason To feel not good enough And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction Or beautiful release Memories seep from my viens and let me be empty and weightless and maybe I'll find some peace tonight
In the arms of the angel Fly away from here In this dark cold hotel room And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled fromt he reckage of your silent reverie You're in the arms of the angel May you find some comfort here
So tired of the straight life and everywhere you turn There's vultures and theives at your back
The storm keeps on twisting keep on building the lies that you make up for all that you lack
don't make no difference escape one last time its easier to believe and this sweet madness oh this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
in the arms of the Angel Fly away from here From this dark cold hotel And the endlessness that you fear You are pulled from the reckage Of your silent Reverie
You're in the arms of the Angel May you find some comfort here You're in the arms of the angel May you find some comfort here
I start school tomorrow. Was not looking forward to it, but I have missed my Japanese class. Did not miss watching my ex flirt with anything that moves. Strange how a computer nerd can get the attention of so many girls when before, he was a nobody. I guess he is kinda cute...
I downloaded all of the Kingdom Hearts 1 & 2 albums and got inspired to play again. Spent the whole afternoon playing KH 2 because 1 doesn't work. Stupid friend. Am now going back to finish training Drive Forms. ^_^
