Happy Halloween!

I always loved Halloween. Not always the day, because that could either go positively or negatively, but the whole season. I love watching Halloween commercials, TV shows, and movies. I love the colors, the smells, the candy. I love seeing stores all decorated and selling costumes. It's just a great, happy time of year.

This past Halloween has been really great. The festivities parts, anyway. The movies, treats, everything went as I wanted it all to go. Over all, everything was awesome.

And now, we begin the Christmas season :-D

Jolly Sunday

I'm not really looking forward to tomorrow. This weekend has been lovely, and I just don't want to go back to school tomorrow, even if it isn't that bad. I know when I come back I have to write a short response paper, about a page, but I still just... just no. Basically, the only thing keeping me going this week is Uncharted 3 on Tuesday.

Today

Today was awesome. Saturdays tend to be that.

A Time to Breathe

Today, I got to do nothing for the first time in ages. I caught up on Community and Parks and Recreation, watched American Horror Story (disturbing as fuck), and watched the pilot for Once Upon a Time, which was really cute. Weirdly, there were parts of it that just gave me a huge, horrid burst of sadness.

The whole plot of the show is that fairy tale characters like Snow White, Prince Charming, Rumplestiltskin, and the rest, have been cursed by the evil queen from "Snow White" to living some place horrible, a terrible, awful place where there are no happy endings: real life. That just made me come close to shedding actual tears. I honestly couldn't figure out at the time, but I think I know why now.

I'm sure I've talked about how I thrust myself into fantasy worlds like Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, etc. because they are escapes from reality. That show kind of took that view from the stories we escape to: real life is horrible, and someplace we never want to deal with. I think that's true, especially now. Not so much that it's horrible, but... in comparison to fairy tales, life is just awful. Having gone through so much stress and worry as of late, I can agree with that assessment.

I read Storm of Swords, had a McRib (disappointing), and watched A Clockwork Orange, which was really good. Funny, for a movie that got so much flack in the 70's for being horribly disturbing (and it is unsettling at points), stuff like American Horror Story freak me out more.

I'm really excited to see Ashley and Jessica tomorrow. We haven't hung out here in a while, so it should be fun.

Also, I fucking love this song. Canada rules.

Words

Worddddsssss.

Blergh

Studying. Tomorrow afternoon will be an improvement.

Running on Empty

I'm running on 4 1/2 hours of sleep. I can feel it, too. Not really tired, but just zoned out and kind of woozy. So, here's this post tonight. I've got my Psych of Learning test tomorrow. This week is hell.
