I'm going to miss this.

Do you ever sit somewhere and just sit there dwelling on something, thinking "I'm going to miss this?" It's how I feel about this class. It was pretty much my favorite class. It had a lovely mix of people, stories, and a bit of learning, all of which I fell in love with. I don't think there was a single class where I did not have a smile on my face at some point. Either there was other people enjoying something, which made me smile like a domino effect, or having a little sub-conversation in the back, or something witty being spoken out into the class. It doesn't feel like it should be over, you know? It feels like there should be another class, were we waste half the time since someone posted something on the blogs that needed addressed, or we had an awesome reading guide test.

I loved sitting where I sat with the people I sat with, though I kinda wish I sat with other people, just to see what it's like from their viewpoint, and maybe get to know other people that I barely talked to better. It probably would have had a bit less giggling. Just a tad.

I'm going to miss sitting next to the people I sat next to, and staring awkwardly at David till he stops drumming on the table, and watching videos all the time. I'll miss sharing meaningfull glances with Amanda about a joke only we know about, or saying Kelsey, Kelsey over and over again only to say, You're a wizard Harry! I'm going to miss how half the time Kyle's head blocked me from most of Leeper's sight. Sitting there with out a computer, since I fail to own a Macbook pro. It's like I fell in love with this class or something.


Be my Penguin?

Number 1: Wade Winstin Wilson

First off, let me just say that if you want to comment on this blog and you plan on mentioning the Deadpool from Wolverine Origins, don't. Just don't. That is not the Wade that is Deadpool. That's Ryan Reynolds pretty boy version of him. Any decent reader of comic books knows that the movie version is horrible.

Now. On to my number one favorite thing, of all time. OF ALL TIME. Besides being just another reason that MARVEL IS BETTER THAN DC, Deadpool is plain epicness. Mmm. The Merc with a mouth. So good. To explain this character to you, and mayhaps explain my love for this, let me say this. He is a product of the Canadian government, with too much knowledge of pop culture, cannot shut up to save his life, has an odd fascination with Bea Arther, and has a healing factor to keep his cancer at bay. Though his healing factor tries to heal everything. Including his mind. Which makes him have amnesia sometimes, though his best Cable helped fix it a bit. Also, Wade is hee.larry.ous. No joke. Plus back when it was Cable & Deadpool together (they had their own series and everything!) it was genius.

There were so many honorable mentions, I just wouldn't feel right if I didn't mention them. (see what I did there?)
Sunglasses. Scarves. Tacos. The color green. Back rubs. My Zune. Warm beverages on cold days. Hipsters. Bowling for Soup. Rainbows. Star Wars. James A. Owen. Chuck Taylors. Feathers. Birds. Fluffy puppies.

Have some Pon & Zi. With some adorable pickup lines.

Number 2: Books.

There's just something wonderful about a good book. Especially an old friend of a book. You may have read it before, but it still thrills the heartstrings, and plays them for a sucker. I know I'm a sucker for my favorite series and authors. If a new book comes out in a series I love, there might be slight bouncing around and squealing in excitement. Though I try to keep it to a minimum, as I normally am in a library (which happens to be my favorite place in the world) when I discover this wonderful happening. Normally ends up with me smiling too much. But what are you going to do?
I sit here in my room, surrounded by some of my best friends, and I look at them and I remember the times I've had with them. The times many times some part of me has fallen asleep because I've been too engrossed in the tale to move. The times I've wanted to remember a certain page, but I didn't have a bookmark so I tried really hard to memorize the page number. The times when I'm just trying to read, but people keep asking me about what I'm reading so I get all pissy and avoid the question as best I can. The long car rides, where I drowned out everything except for my mother's voice.

The times I've been in an enchanted castle wondering around trying to find the library. The time I was chatting with the Cheshire. The time I was a spy. The time I visited the Louvre. The time I flew on a dragon's back. The time I met John and Jack and Charles and Tumnus And Jules. The time I went to face Smaug. The time I caught the snitch. The time I ran on rooftops and talked to gods without fear. The time I was at Camp Half-blood. The time I visited the summer court of the fae and came out years later. The time I rode black beauty. The time I visited a dinotopia, and got lost in a different world. The time I killed myself for mine love was dead. The time I sledded with Calvin, and learned something with Frazz and haunted the night with Bruce and Logan.

The time I lived on Mango street, and the time where all I wanted was to be the catcher in the rye, and the time Lizzy was dancing with Darcy, and the time Alice fell down the hole, and the horse and his boy made it safe and sound and Sakura lost her memories, and the time Georgie Porgie kissed the girls and made the cry, the time Gwain became the defender of ladies everywhere, and his squire turned out to be the prince of the summer council, and Percy finally found out who his father was, and Gen ends up king, Jacen ends up Darth Cademus, the Scarlett Pimpernell ended up being Sir Percy Blakeney, rain finally comes to Bamarre, Atalanta refuses to be princess, Charles Wallace is a genius who just needs time, and there is a great ring of endless lights.
There's something wonderful about a book. It's a portal, if you will, to another world, another life, another time. For a bit, we get to experience something that can be completely different from what we know. We laugh, we cry, we feel. It makes us think, it makes us dream, it makes us smile. Even if you aren't a big reader, the thrill of a book is expressed in millions of other ways, like songs, movies, audio books. But for me, there is nothing better than a bunch of pages with a bunch of little black squiggles. I love pictures and and picture books and the like, but if there's no pictures in my book, that's just fine with me. (Excluding my comics and comic books. There better be pictures, or I will not be happy.) It's like the perfect recipe for those prone to flights of fancy. Or those who have dreamed of what it would be like to fly. Both of which I have been guilty of.

You’re so hunky, you must be hiding a rapidly aging portrait somewhere in your attic.
Girl, you’re so flawless, even James Wood couldn’t find anything to criticize.
Do you know how I can contact Sherlock Holmes? Because I need to solve the mystery of how to win your heart.
We could make such a beautiful library together.

I can recall a an allusion to Shakespeare in reference to how beautiful you are.
Not even Veritaserum could make me express how much I’m truly attracted to you.

My love for you burns like a dying phoenix
"You look so much like a princess, I put poison in that apple you're eating. Let's hope my antidote-chapstick does the trick."
It was a dark and stormy night.

Number 3: Mountain Dew/caffiene.

I probably should drink less..... But I just love it. It's my go to when I'm having a bad day, when I have a head ache, when I'm cramping, when I just want one. It fills me with joy. Once I got a big cupfull from the gas station and walked out smiling like an idiot.... which kinda made me feel silly, but what are you going to do? Any one could make me love them so very much if they brought me a Mountain Dew, or even one of them fan-ceh coffee drinks. True story bro. :)
This almost made it to number 2..... but there's stuff I love more. <3


Mmm. I'm too sleepy right now to go look up pick up lines. I'd probably just pick the first couple I'd find, and those would probably be horribly dirty and make y'all look at me in disapproval. More than usual. Though I heard an India pick up line the other day..... It was punny. XD There's just something about puns that amuses me so.
In leiu of the pick up lines I so dearly love, Imma say I love y'all.

Number 4: People who make/get literary/nerdy references.

Well, first off. I found I picture of a little beaver in a cape flying around. Yup.


Whenever I talk about nerdy stuff, I feel like I'm simultaneously giving my nerd credentials and name dropping.

There's something wonderful about people who make references to nerdy type things. Literature. Comics. Manga. Movies. Old music. Especially in casual conversation. It's so wonderful. It's like an inside joke you can have with a complete stranger. You don't know each other, you don't know a thing about them. But you feel they are all right because you over heard them talking about something like Doctor Who. Or maybe they were talking about something about their favorite Jedi and you knew who it was, even though he's a rather obscure character. (My favorite's Quinlan! You've never heard of him? I'm not surprised.... #hipster) Or it's a friend of a friend, and you're just chilling together while the mutual friend is off being social. And you start a conversation about Harry Potter.

It makes me so happy to be able to nerd out with someone else who's a huge fan of the same things. So. Very. Happy. Pretty much, if any one could reference all of the things I nerd about the most in casual conversation.... Well, let's put it this way. If they asked me to marry them, I'd say yes and be completely serious. Da da da da, you found a winner!

So. All they pictures below (besides the Pon and Zi one) reference stuff. And they make me happy :)




I must have just beaten a boss, because I just found a heart container.
You know, it's dangerous to go alone.

My top 5 favorite things :) #Iwannamakeliststoo

Number 5: The color gray. Variant: grey.

It just makes me so happy. Plus, it's really under-appreciated. Why can't we all just get along like we used to in middle school? Anyways, I really do love this color. Half my clothes are gray. Gray is the color of books when you've been reading a really long time and your eyes start to blur. Grey is the color of cloudy, rainy days. Gray is the color the side of my right hand gets when I've been drawing with graphite or charcoal. Grey is the color Harrison Ford's hair is turning. Gray is the color of calm days with a book and a warm beverage close at hand. Grey is the color of Roman Holiday. Gray is the color of P!nk's eyes. Grey is the color of wolves and my favorite earings. Gray is the tones they use to shade with typical mangas.

Gray is the color I associate with my friend Jamie. (who just had a baby!) Because she likes to read, and gets literary references. And she's warm and even when she's stressed she's still nice. Grey is the color of Jamie. Who if I had to choose some one to be when I grow up, I wouldn't mind being her. I also wouldn't mind being Catherine Tate, Sean Connery, or even Holden Caulfield.

So, I'm doing this list not because I need blogs like some people I could mention.... (David.... Daniel....Charity......) But because I feel left out. :( I want to make lists were half the things set off arguments, and the other half got ignored.
