The Dorm Life of Freak and Sushi

NOTE: If and when my sister Ladybug ever reads this post, she will flip her shit for the title. She's completely obsessed with one of the twins on The Suite Life of Zach and Cody. Only one of the twins, though.

I am sitting at my school-sanctioned desk, drinking a cup of extremely strong, possibly radioactive coffee that I just reheated in the industrial microwave in the kitchen. The microwave hums whenever someone opens it, and it reminds me irrevocably of a nuclear reactor. My roommate, Freak, is either sleeping or staring at the ceiling, but she has promised pancakes whenever she emerges from her side of the room. Lately she has been taken with randomly singing like an aging black gospel singer, and the fact that she is neither black nor aging doesn't seem to bother her in the slightest. I've been looking at the website Regretsy for days now, because it makes me laugh at humanity, and because I still don't have a great deal of homework. All of these random sentences are culminating in a blog entry that I don't honestly see an end to. I could do this all day. Like I said, not much homework.
So, pretty much every day, I do the same thing. I wake up in the morning--not feeling like P. Diddy--around 8AM, so I have plenty of time to take a shower or check my mail before I head for class at about ten 'til 9. Most days, I have class for five straight hours, with no breaks, which is a total kill-joy, but I can't complain because I planned it that way. I have absolutely no reason to skip classes when they're back-to-back. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I have little to no classes, so I read, or do homework, or go to Wal-Mart. There's no mall or anything like that in Charleston, so it's either 'go to Wal-Mart' or 'wither away into nothingness from the boredom'. Maybe that's a tad extreme, though. I'll have plenty to do with the student organizations I've joined once school truly gets into gear.
I think my favorite part of living on campus is that fact that I can walk to the library in under a minute. And we have an amazing library; the entire fourth floor is A/V and music books, the first floor has an extremely eclectic graphic novels section that I am readily devouring, and really, it's just a beautiful building to behold. Not as gorgeous as Doudna, which I wrote about in a past entry, but still.
More about dorm life later; we're having a stand-up comedy marathon. Because someone is holding all of the Harry Potter movies in our library system hostage...

Various Quiz Results

I am very bored. To entertain myself, I am taking quizzes on OkCupid, a dating site that I signed up for when I was in high school, just so I could take the quizzes. They have really neat quizzes. So, here are the results. Sorry this isn't more interesting. Give me a break, though; it's the first day of the semester.

Dead At 75

Your result for The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test...

Outcast Genius

74 % Nerd, 87% Geek, 61% Dork

For The Record:
A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.
You scored better than half in all three, earning you the title of: Outcast Genius.
Outcast geniuses usually are bright enough to understand what society wants of them, and they just don't care! They are highly intelligent and passionate about the things they know are *truly* important in the world. Typically, this does not include sports, cars or make-up, but it can on occasion (and if it does then they know more than all of their friends combined in that subject).
Outcast geniuses can be very lonely, due to their being outcast from most normal groups and too smart for the room among many other types of dorks and geeks, but they can also be the types to eventually rule the world, ala Bill Gates, the prototypical Outcast Genius.
Congratulations!

Your result for The Would You Have Been a Nazi Test...

The Swine

Achtung! You are 31% brainwashworthy, 41% antitolerant, and 24% blindly patriotic

Sie sind ein Schwein! You would've lived a quiet and consenting civilian life in Germany, while the Nazis stomped all over people you didn't quite care about.
You would never have directly joined the Nazis, basically because (1) you're not so nationalistic, (2) you're not that susceptible to crazy propaganda, and (3) you probably don't have the bloodlust. But you would've appreciated the Party, because you liked how they cleaned out the [insert race you dislike here].
The fact is, you demonstrate too much attachment to and pride of your own kind, be they white & male & straight or whatever. You absolutely would not have stood up to the Germans.
Conclusion: born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would NOT have STOOD UP to the Nazis. Sorry

Your result for The Sexual HELL Test...

HELL LEVEL 3

Raw score: 86%

There's a special place in Hell for you: the basement penthouse. You scored the nastiest possible score on the Sexual Hell Test. You have no sexual restraint whatsoever. You'll take pleasure however you can get it, and my guess is you get it a lot. If for some reason you don't right now, you will soon, as people in your category only tend to spiral down ever deeper into the abyss of carnality and delicious sin. Congratulations.
I, personally, think that this category is the best. Paradoxically enough, sexual liberation and indulgence can only bring you closer to purity.
AVOID: all but level 3 hellions like yourself. You wouldn't want to ruin anyone, now would you?

Your result for The Brutally Honest Personality Test...

Freak- INFJ

13% Extraversion, 80% Intuition, 40% Thinking, 53% Judging

Well, well, well. How did someone like you end up with the least common personality type of them all? In a group of 100 Americans, only 0.5 others would be just like you. You really are one of a kind... In fact, I do believe that that's one of the definitions for the word "FREAK."
Freak's not such a bad word to describe you actually.
You are deep, complex, secretive and extremely difficult to understand. If that doesn't scream "Freak!" I don't know what does. No-one actually knows the REAL you, do they?
You probably have deep interests in creative expression as well as issues of spirituality and human development.
You've probably even been called a "psychic" before, because of your uncanny knack to understand and "read" people without quite knowing how you do it. Don't fret. You're not actually psychic. That would make you special and you'll never accomplish that.
You're also quite possible the most emotional of them all, so don't take this all too hard. Nevertheless you most definitely have the strangest personality type and that's not necessarily a good thing.

Your result for The Your Type of Girl Test...

The Suicide Girl

64% Sexy-Cute, 30% Dark-Light, 28% Artsy-Stylish

Cute, Dark, and Artsy, it's the Suicide Girl. A cousin of the Goth Girl, she's a little more on the cute side than the sexy side. Her interesting hair and impish smile make a certain kind of person wonder how her unique outfits would look lying crumpled beside the bed. By the way, if you don't get this category name, you don't know your Palahniuk... or your internet porn.

Your result for The 3-Variable Purity Test...

PURITY: 43% sex, 85% substance, 50% moral [55% total]

Well done! The higher your scores, the more "pure" you are. The lower, the more you've experienced.
This test was about done deeds, so your numbers will never climb. [It's interesting to think they all started at 100%.] But will your purity continue to fall? Will you OUTGROW or will you OUTDO your past experiences? It's up to you.

Advisory:

• Don't date anyone if your moral purities differ by more than 30%.
  
• Don't run a business with anyone if your substance purities differ by more than 40%.
  
• Do be friends with someone who has less than 1/2 your sex purity. You'll enjoy their colorful company.
  

Note: as for the "TOTAL" purity value - that's a weighted combination of your scores, indicating what a typical purity test might say about you.

"The most serious problem is always the one you didn't anticipate."

I'm feeling rather lazy tonight, so I will instead share with you one of my many papers. This one was written when I was a junior in high school.

“The most serious problem is always the one you didn't anticipate.” –Anonymous

I believe that no matter how diligently one plans ahead, there will always be some unanticipated problem. And of course, that singular snag will inevitably be the most troublesome of all, and could be the pitfall to the entire project. This attitude may make me appear a pessimist, but I beg to differ. Although I am, indeed, a pessimist, my conviction in this particular statement merely confirms me a realist. I have encountered many problems based on the aphorism above.
For example, imagine that you are running in a race. You huff along, almost to the finish line, when suddenly a lunatic jumps out of a bush and tackles you to the ground. More likely than not, you wouldn’t have predicted that this very odd event would occur, but it may well be the worst thing that could happen. Having a crazy person spring from a shrubbery and attack you would probably hurt your chances of finishing the race, and you may not even live through the experience. Thankfully, this has not happened to me, but as a paranoid, neurotic person, I have actually believed it could happen. Unfortunately, because I have already anticipated the appearances of odd characters on the racetrack, something even worse, and, of course, unanticipated, will ruin my chances of finishing a race.
However, despite what this particular adage implies, we can’t live our lives expecting the worst to happen. Because, as it also states, we can never truly anticipate what horrible disasters will occur.

Androgyny Suits Me

Today, Spock and I were sitting in the back of his truck during a break at school. I may not have mentioned this, but I look somewhat like a boy, despite my ample bosum, and I dress in a non-gender-specific fashion a majority of the time. Which, I believe, is why passers-by thought that Spock was gay and that I was his boyfriend. The poor dear... I also haven't mentioned that I am bisexual, and quite a bit more into girls. That probably will come into play one of these days. I'm just glad we weren't harassed or anything, because I certainly would have put up a fight. I don't wear these terrifying stompy boots for nothing.


_{My Glorious JtHM Stompy Boots!}

Well, that's pretty much what mine look like; I think that they may have been discontinued.

My Seven Favorite Bisexuals in the Media!

2. Andy Dick
3. Vin Diesel: It's a rumor, but I take what I can get.

5. Billie Joe Armstrong
6. Melanie B: Yes, Scary Spice.
7. Drew Barrymore: She is such a babe...


I decided on seven because I hadn't used that one yet. Top tens get boring when overused...
