An Oxymoron of a Contradiction

Decided to close this lj and open a new one. I can now be found under Annorateagan. So if you'd like to continue having me as an lj friend go there :)

Bleah. SO lately I've been trying to figure out what to do with my life. If I could afford it... I'd probably just take random classes that looked interesting. Theres the EXPO college in UW that looks VERY interesting but most of their classes have started already and don't start again till fall and it's across the water and getting across the water at 5'oclock does not sound fun AND gas prices keep rising. *sigh* So I'm looking at BCC stuff. It donned on me I might like taking history classes and maybe become a history teacher or a museum person. I like history. I don't cringe at the thought of having to learn history and I like to read. I wonder... People have told me artsy things. Like I write poetry. I could take creative writing or something. But I like whim writing not forced writing so that doesn't work so well. What do you guys think of doing history? I wonder how one becomes a history teacher or something involving history. What jobs involve that? I need to look that up more I suppose. So goes life.

The Procrastinator's Creed

1. I believe that if anything is worth doing, it would have been done already.

2. I shall never move quickly, except to avoid more work or find excuses.

3. I will never rush into a job without a lifetime of consideration.

4. I shall meet all of my deadlines directly in proportion to the amount of bodily injury I could expect to receive from missing them.

5. I firmly believe that tomorrow holds the possibility for new technologies, astounding discoveries, and a reprieve from my obligations.

6. I truly believe that all deadlines are unreasonable regardless of the amount of time given.

7. I shall never forget that the probability of a miracle, though infinitesmally small, is not exactly zero.

8. If at first I don't succeed, there is always next year.

9. I shall always decide not to decide, unless of course I decide to change my mind.

10. I shall always begin, start, initiate, take the first step, and/or write the first word, when I get around to it.

11. I obey the law of inverse excuses which demands that the greater the task to be done, the more insignificant the work that must be done prior to beginning the greater task.

12. I know that the work cycle is not plan-start-finish, but is wait-plan-plan.

13. I will never put off until tomorrow, what I can forget about forever.

14. I will become a member of the ancient Order of Two-Headed Turtles (the Procrastinator's Society) if they ever get it organized.

I had an excellent blessing yesterday in the mail. From food poisoning and going to the hospital I had owed a little over 1,000 dollars. I turned in one of the. I'm poor help me out sheets they have to give you some help. I got this response in return.

"Your application for uncompensated care has been reviewed. I am pleased to inform you this it is Overlake Hospital Medical Center's decision to approve your application in the amount of $1150.61. This account is considered paid in full."

I was stunned! Like winning the lottery. Such a blessing not to have to pay that off as I didn't know how I was going to manage it.

I feel loved when...

Beautiful Disaster


she loves her momma's lemonade
hates the sounds that goodbyes make
she prays one day she'll find someone to need her
she swears there's no difference between the lies and compliments
it's all the same if everybody leaves her

and all the magazines tells her she's not good enough
the pictures that she sees makes her cry

she would change everything, everything, just ask her
caught in the in between of beautiful disaster
she just needs someone to take her home

she's giving boys what they want
trying to act so nonchalant
afraid to see that she's lost her direction
she never stays the same for long
assuming that she'll get it wrong
perfect only in her imperfection

she's not a drama queen
she doesn't wanna feel this way
only 17 and tired, yeah

she would change everything for happy ever after
caught in the in between of beautiful disaster
she just needs someone to take her home

she's just the way she is
but no one's told her that's okay

she would change everything, everything, just ask her
caught in the in between of beautiful disaster

she would change everything for happy ever after
caught in the in between of beautiful disaster
she just needs someone to take her home
she just needs someone to take her home

I Am A: True Neutral Elf Bard Ranger


Alignment:
True Neutral characters are very rare. They believe that balance is the most important thing, and will not side with any other force. They will do whatever is necessary to preserve that balance, even if it means switching allegiances suddenly.


Race:
Elves are the eldest of all races, although they are generally a bit smaller than humans. They are generally well-cultured, artistic, easy-going, and because of their long lives, unconcerned with day-to-day activities that other races frequently concern themselves with. Elves are, effectively, immortal, although they can be killed. After a thousand years or so, they simply pass on to the next plane of existance.


Primary Class:
Bards are the entertainers. They sing, dance, and play instruments to make other people happy, and, frequently, make money. They also tend to dabble in magic a bit.


Secondary Class:
Rangers are the defenders of nature and the elements. They are in tune with the Earth, and work to keep it safe and healthy.


Deity:
Gond is the True Neutral god of artifice, craft, and construction. He is also known as Gond Wonderbringer. His followers believe that 'actions count' - that is, that what is accomplished in the end is what is truly important. They wear saffron clothing, with red sashes containing all manner of mechanical devices. Their preferred weapons are firearms, since the followers of Gond had a large hand in their making and invention. They also wear plate mail (no shield), but generally prefer to have bodyguards, instead. Gond's symbol is a toothed wheel, made of ivory, bone, or metal.
