BOOM

Cat-sitting started today! I had to go early, because I have no idea how long I'll be hanging at Lauren's today. Very little to do, therefore. I do really like cats, though. I wish I knew why all others animals make me so uncomfortable. They didn't when I was younger. Though I do remember a few day dreams of catching rabies and foaming at the mouth, I also remember being quite comfortable around animals as a child.
The neighborhood cat comes to hang ot with me while I make my wand. I can't actually be sure of its gender. I almost glimpsed its male parts, but it happened so fast that I couldn't be sure. I named it Jo-Frances. [S]he suits it.

Yesterday's practice didn't go so well. I did not feel like singing and I could not concentrate at all with the monstrously loud drums playing constantly. Seriously, pause it the drumming so I have enough time to remember how to talk. I just felt bad because every time I tried to talk to Lauren, I had to yell, and I think she thought I was yelling at her instead of just trying to be heard. I promise that I wasn't. I'm not good at being loud, so I always sound way harsh. It's a total accident, guys. Scout's honor. Mother always gets mad at me for that.

Okay, I need to start getting dressed in my Gryffindor apparel--people always think it's weird when I ask them which house they're in. I'm totally aware that it's impossible to actually be sorted, but it's still fun to guess which one you'd be in. Audrey complains about not wanting to do it because she's against classist systems. But which house are you in? Part of why I'm dressing up as Lavender Brown is because she's a Gryffindor like me. I took fourteen quizzes to find out which house I am. I know it sounds like a ridiculously high amount, but it was during finals season, so it was actually the advised choice, because otherwise I would ave had to spend that time studying. Eleven said Gryffindor, two said Ravenclaw, one said Hufflepuff. Majority ruled.
I'm sick of people giving Jessie Cave crap. Yes, she is playing a so-called annoying character, but if Lavender Brown hadn't existed, Hermione would have taken forever to admit her feelings for Ron to herself and Ron probably would have taken years to realize that no one added up to Hermione. So she's actually vital for all of that. But when you start insulting her curly hair? That is where you have crossed the line! Commenters are talking about how they don't like her because Lavender's hair is curly. That curly hair is unattractive! Fools! That is just insulting! If I wanted to spend two hours a day straightening my hair to impress certain meanies, then I would. But I spend my time doing much more important things (i.e. writing blogs, singing Harry Potter songs).
Anyway, if you dislike Jessie Cave because she wears a childish dress to a movie premiere, please, just wait until she is famous enough to actually be given designer dresses that you so admire. Meanwhile, I think she's quite cute.

I am such a nerd. But while researching what I should wear today, I've grown attatched to my subject matter.
Plus, being a nerd is awesome.

Anyway, the rest is pictures.


My rooms are insanely messy, so I just took pictures of things on my walls.
The pictures are from left to right:
A robot by my friend, Audrey; a print from the popular Black Apple on Etsy; a calendar I made; and some Amelie prints by Almost Famous on Etsy.

One of my desk--completely messy--and my cute little hat stand.

You can sort of see the wizard rock sign Lauren, Audrey, and I made. It blends in with my board games. There's a little picture on the bottom of it by Emmy Cicierega called "Purple Friendship Neckerchiefs." I just had it lying around and smacked it on there.

A couple of bulletin boards, messy movie and book shelves.

Eiffel tower clock, of Montreal poster, Spanish children's CDs, and Charlie Brown! I have dozens of Spanish children's songs. It's baffling.

The sign says "Restroom of Doom, Restrooms only for paying customers." I stole it from Questionable Content.

Did you see a trend of French objects? It's really weird, because I never intended this. I don't even make a habit of talking about France very often. I do like French movies and music and it's a beautiful language, but I've never told anybody "I really want to have the Eiffel Tower covering my room." I just kept getting them. SO it became sort of a theme.
I used pictures because I'm not sure how to explain my rooms. I have a very tiny room. It only fits a bed, a desk, and a TV in it and there's no closet, but it has its own bathroom, and this is the first time I've ever had my own lavatory. It's connected to the back room which was a porch before the previous owners closed it in. So I put all of my bonus things in it.
If I ever put away my clothes and board games, I'll share the floor.
