Guys, I'm so sorry I haven't been commenting or replying or anything, this past week has been madness and these two days have been hell. *sigh*

I don't get along with my roommate. Well, we get on fine, she just doesn't seem to want to talk to me. Which is making this intensely awkward. I'm hoping something crazy happens that we are forced to bond over, but barring a nuclear apocalypse of some kind, I seriously doubt it's going to happen.

Then my mom calls me this morning to tell me she had to go to the hospital in an ambulance (after waking up with her heart racing, and continuing to do so nonstop) where they told her she had "supraventricular tachycardia", so she'll be fine but I can't help but be a little worried and even more stressed out now, and it's not her fault, but... yeah. I don't even know.

I just don't need all this stress right now. I need to figure out how I'm going to not live on campus next year, I need to figure out how we're going to get our rooms officially switched, and I need to get food and books.

And I haven't eaten yet today, and I have a meal plan, and I can use it, I'm just too shy and have been shot down too many times to ask my roommate if she wants to go with me. So now my crippling social phobias are forbidding me from going out to get food. WHY, CRUEL WORLD.

But it's not all sadness and epic angst. [livejournal.com profile] tahu and I are watching random SPN episodes (Shadow may be our new favorite ;D ;D ;D ;D) to drown our sorrows, and I had a blast at the Student Center party with Sabrina last night (she gave me The Prestige for my birthday, which means I got two Christian Bale movies... HOORAY). Oh! We also painted dorky Batman and Joker shirts cause that's our current obsession. :) I am finding random happiness, and making all kinds of plans to not be in this room a lot, and I think it's going to be ok. So yeah. Ok.

Everything will be ok. :)

KoTOR RPG Guide, HOMG.

I've always been tangentially interested in playing a tabletop game, but there are just not enough nerds in my life. I wonder if I shouldn't get the book just for the art. (We all know I will... Bastila's on the cover omg!!! But seriously, what have they done to her hair?) The costume references alone might be worth it. WE SHALL SEE.

In other news, I bought some red hair dye last night, and I'm hoping to give it a shot tonight. I sincerely hope it all turns out alright; most of the pink is out of my hair at this point (it's been almost 3 months since I last dyed it), so I'm hoping that has no bearing on the color that comes out in the end.

Alright, I'm not going to lie. I'm preoccupied with the fact that io9 is looking for interns. I'm a pretty big SciFi nerd, but only in regards to newer stuff. I'm pretty big into nerd culture, though! That should count for something! I just don't have any professional examples of writing to send with an application other than a couple research papers I did for school last year. *sigh* Anyone want to offer me any ideas as to what I could do, because I'd like to at least apply, hopeless though it might be.

*goes back to coveting the KotOR Guide and playing Mass Effect*

Alright... summer is pretty officially upon us. *headdesk*

So... anyone got any recommendations for things I should get obsessive over this summer? :D I'd really like book recs, but movie/anime/tv recs are also entirely awesomely acceptable.

I'm already thinking about watching Wolf's Rain because of [livejournal.com profile] tahu, but I reeeeeeeeeally need something good to read... heh.
