Aaaauuuuuugh! I'm so bored! *flails*

I've spent most of the day either replying to the Seph-Zack experiment thread (gods help me, Eco, I SHIP THEM NOW! >_> Sephiroth will kill me!) or watching Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy Stupid Files. As random and funny as they are, I can't take any more though! >_< The Kingdom Hearts ones lack a bit of originality though.Same clips paired with the same sound clips over and over but there are some truly hilarious moments. XD

But now I have nothing to do. I'm just hanging around, waiting for my mother to go to bed so I can make off with the playstation. I have marks to hunt and then I'm on my way up Mount Bur Omicace. ...I think that's how it's spelled..? Except I think my mother wants me to play more KH2 because she got up to a certain point and needs me to get past that so I can tell her what to do. >_> And she finished Dragon Quest earlier this week too. Now she's moved on to FFXII. I'm running out of games for her to play! Though she did pick Prince of Persia as one of her choices earlier. She's not played anything not an RPG before...wonder how she'd handle it...

Hmm...what else? Been typing up bits of story. Not as much as I should, admittedly but at least I got a couple paragraphs done. I have chapters to finish. And if I could get off my lazy behind, I could finish one of my short stories very soon. But no...the internet must distract me though I am somehow doing very little online.

...I miss Eco~ But we can't talk 'til Monday...

...and my mother is off to bed! Yay!

Whew... Had a brief scare earlier.

I got a little notice about new updates for the computer so I installed them and restarted like it asked...but then it didn't get past the first loading screen. O_O Reset a couple times, still nothing.

So I fetched Adam and Steph to see if they knew what to do - then phoned her dad since they had no clue. He mentioned something on the inside we'd have to prod but we couldn't find it. We took it upstairs to have a better look, opened it up and stuff. Couldn't find it at all but when we tested it out again up there, it worked. O.o Dunno what we did but it worked. So we switched it off, switched over the RAM so this computer works faster now (which is better) and I'm now free to get back online. >_<

But the computer upstairs doesn't work so I may or may not have lost all my stories up there. Fuck.

I've got so much to rewrite.

Not including the door thingy.

Nightwind wanted a new character put in and I can come up with a vague design that is NOT ME. >_< He said something about the new girl being me or being like me. She wears glasses, plays videogames a lot andruns away from bullies a lot too. I can also see where she fits in and stuff. But like hell can I find a name.

OI NIGHTWIND! Whenever you see this, can you tell me more what you wanted for her? Also, I've been playing around on eLouai.com and coming up with character designs to start off with. I want to show you them and then find little ways of changing them.

Anyway...Now I'm off to check emails again, start writing stories again and try to continue that database thing. >_<

Iain's parents have gone away for a few days. I have no idea when they're getting back because when they left I was mostly asleep and didn't think to ask. Neither did Iain. So I'm staying at his until they do get back - can't imagine they would be away past Sunday but all the same, I don't know. So I have no idea when I'll next be able to get online. I'm just sorta sneaking on now since I came home for fresh clothes and stuff on my way to the jobcentre.

So all the things I was supposed to do this weekend have to get put back indefinitely. >_< I was hoping to finish my Sephiroth app. too. Oh darn...

But on the bright side, I'll have lots of time to think and write drafts and lots of stuff to type when I get back. My KH story has another chapter finished on paper and I'm working on the third.

I need better speakers. With volume control. Some of the stuff I'm trying to listen to is far too quiet.

Also, where has my self-control gone? I've got three stories on FFN I'm currently reading, going through messages on FA, reading Project Daisychain threads, listening to some of the stuff by Organization LIX and trying to watch Avatar.

Oh, and I'm writing a little and editing too. XD

At the new jobsearch location today. What fun, huh? Hehe...

Got a little lost on the way but I knew it would happen and planned ahead. I still managed to arrive early though. Because my sense of timing tends to be awesome like that. XD

It's a cool place, from what I've seen so far. IIt's wierd-shaped though. Hexagonal and the roof is wonky. XP

The staff are friendly though. The woman when we first came in seemed nice and then there's...Steven, I think his name is. He was friendly. Had to switch my computers around because he's doing some kind of maintinence or something. 

My shyness seems non-existant today. Which is cool. I may actually get around to phoning places for jobsearch. And I have to go to the bank too. I need money!!!!! But to get money, I need a bank card that's valid. Then I'm going and getting something to eat! And perhaps a new book.

I'm rereading Good Omens at the moment. Iain came home yesterday with the new Terry Pratchett book too. XD And "How to do Almost Everything". It seems interesting. And has a few recipies in it I think.  I only read the contents and flicked through it quickly. Iain didn't give me time to read through it properly because he was showing off the other stuff he bought.

Makes me want to go on a shopping spree but I have o get him a birthday present too. At least I'm limiting what he can spend, since I've got food and travel to think off once I get access to my money. And a DVD. 

I still need new LJ icons. I'll search tonight. 

I hear Ross is getting kicked out for real. Something about accidentally leaving the oven on from 1am to 8am. *eye roll* I tihnk his dad's over-reacting personally. I leave the oven on all the time or the hob and my mother just sighs, turns it off and tells me I left it on. If he's in need of a place, he could come to mine for the weekend but I dunno about him stayig longer than that. I know that he's asked if that if he moves out into his own place, will Iain and I live with him. I say yes, because I know that a) Iain wants to move out of his parents house too sometimes and b) Ross will need the company. I can go visit my family any time I like as well. If we live in town, it'll be easier for me getting jobs there too. >_< I dun wanna go to South Shields! I don't know my way around and I'll get lost.

Also, I've officially given up on "the gateway ficcy" that inluded Ross's character. He may be disappointed but there's no way I can get a decent plot that works. I'll keep the character notes and perhaps they'll appear in another story. Now my main priority is my ghost story, the one set in the school. I've ben working on writing about Danny's first day, which includes chemistry (need to find the teacher's name..), lunch, some other classes... >_> I wrote ot timetables for all three characters with codes for who shares each class...

>_<

I really want a new manga now. I may settle or a new DVD though. My mother's seen all my current Studio Ghibli collection so now I need to find something else for her to watch. Perhaps Laputa Castle in the Sky or Nausicaa Valley of the Wind. Or I ay get something different. Continue a series I havne't finished yet.

...Makes me want to watch Kino's Journey and King of Bandit Jing again. 

And that reminds me. I WANT MY EXCEL SAGA DVDS BACK!!!! I lent them to Adam and Steph and I haven't seen them in weeks. (Emphasis means it's most likely months but I can't remember when I let them borrow them).

I can't think of anything else to babble about. My train of thought was interuppted by actual jobsearch stuff.

Gods, I am simply ADDICTED to The Black Parade. I can't stop listening to it! When I do, the songs repeat themselves over and over in my head until I give in and put the CD back on.  It's invading my brain!

I don't think I mind though.

Well... I went to see my Dad today. First time in over a year. o_o;;;; Yeah... Well, we spent a couple hours chatting and catching up. He wants to meet Iain. We did talk about him and my dad thinks they would get on well. I just need to get Iain down here some time so they can actually meet. >_< The rest of my family likes Iain, excepting Adam for some unknown reason - I think he's scared - but anyway... Yeah, on the whole my family likes Iain.

Writing stuffs too. Working on UL, my long-abandoned Jak fanfic. Two chapters left, and the next one isn't going to be as long as I tohught it would but for suspense's sake, I'm ending it at the part I have always intended on ending it.

Also rediscovered an old FF7 fanfic plot I may work on. It has an OC in it, one I had long forgotten about. It'll be fun working on her. XD

Also working on a couple of original projects - my swords-and-sorcery-epic-between-good-and-evil story and a series of one-shots based around a certain town and people I made up ages ago. I'm using the themes from 30 Originals on it. I thought it might be fun, something to work on when I'v got writer's block. Just look at the latest theme and write something based around it. ^_^ I've got the first one vaguely planned and will start working on it shortly. XD I hope people like them...

Anyway...reading-wise, I'm currently looking for stuff for my new addiction - VincentxReeve. XD I was playing Dirge of Cerberus the other day and though...Gods, I wonder what would happen if Vincent and Reeve got together... And now I find the mental image of them together too adorable to ignore.
