SORRY FOR THE HIATUS!

I want to apologize for not posting in forever D: I would have, but stuff like school was keeping me tied up. I'll attempt to update you on stuff that's happened, and probably miss a lot of stuff!

• Most notably, I started reading Homestuck. What an undertaking!
• I went to a bouncy house palace place and got slide-burn.
• I got my parents and sister to start listening to dubstep! (yay!)
• I was on a podcast called What Should I Read Next (it's by Anne Bogel)!
• After seeing many, many posts about a certain cartoon series on Tumblr, I decided to watch just one episode.
• I subsequently got super addicted. I'm going to spend most of my time ranting about this, Undertale, Homestuck, Dan and Phil, and Harry Potter along with many other things.
• Most of this blog post will be about Homestuck and that cartoon series.

So exciting! Much ye!

~Homestuck~

Wow. This is... a thing. I don't know exactly what to call it, because it's not really a book, or a comic, or a game. It's just... Homestuck. That's the only way to describe it. It's a modern Odyssey. Quite literally, thousands of pages. Imagine a vast Saharan desert. That's what it is, page-wise. It's the tale simply of a little boy wanting to play a computer game with his friends. But then it gets into things with imagination and blurs the lines between reality and dreaming, and what's real life or a video game, and what does it mean to be a chosen one, and... yeah. It starts very slow but then has a turnaround like you wouldn't imagine. It picks up SO QUICKLY. I had trouble following some of the plot at times, but it wasn't usually that hard. Usually. It's sort of like a collection of short stories in the same universe? But they really aren't? Ugh, it's hard to describe. But you should still definitely read it! (It did make me laugh out loud on more than a few occasions.)

~The Cartoon~

So it's called Miraculous, sometimes called Miraculous Ladybug. It's about a girl. She gets earrings and a magical fairy whom can be called upon to transform into Ladybug, a superhero who fights crime with a yo-yo and kills magic dark butterflies. Basically, it's a gateway drug into anime. Originally, it came out in France and Korea, but Nick is working on doing an English dub for us americans :D I've been mostly looking at the subtitled ones currently, although I listened to one dubbed one and it wasn't too bad. Oh, and that's not all: She fights alongside another person called Chat Noir (black cat in french) whom is actually Adrien, who is the son of a really rich businessman and who does photoshoots for perfume and such, who she also has a crush on because he goes to their school. But he doesn't want to get involved with her non-Ladybug form (a girl called Marinette) because he as Chat Noir has a crush on Ladybug, and he doesn't know they're the same person. Basically, it's complicated and cute and anime for people that don't watch anime. I love it.

It's easier to understand if you're watching it, really! The origin story hasn't been quiiiiite worked out yet, but you'll see. I have become a convert of the cult. Thanks, Tumblr.

Well, those are the new fandoms I'm in currently! Sorry for ranting and not actually posting, but I'm on spring break and should have time to actually post a post later in the week :D sorry for taking a break and happy to be back!

Midnight Rant!

Hey guys
so if I have insomnia and nothing else to do, I might be going on here, titling a post "Midnight Rant" or something, and proceeding to talk about random topics at random for a while until I get sleepy again while listening to rad music. pls note: spoilers are included in all of them for everything. if you abhor bad grammar or spelling, please do not spell check me in the comments; I'm trying to get tired and don't have time for nonsense such as grammar and things. I'll also use run-on sentences and tons of terrible spelling so yeeeeah! let's go!!! (this is like where I put my thoughts instead of blogging on tumblr)

hokay so i watched the gravity falls special secret show thing and it was really good so you should watch it too because it has secrets about the show and it's hirsch and lamby lamby dance yeah basically
oh and i kissed someone i liked today which was super amazing and then i ran off and was pumped because half day omg and the constitution test didn't stand a chance and i was already pumped and then I crashed because my dad stopped my perfect afternoon by saying "YOU KNOW WHAT WE GON STAY HOME" and i was gonna have a home alone night but noooo and he didn't even ask what i got on the test and i need someone to rant to madly so i thought let's blog and play minecraft and today i also spent like an hour on coloring in a heart because stupid thing says it's for drawing and doesn't have a fill function like seriously even windows paint has a fill function what was their budget for this thing but i got it done and did some effects and i'm satisfied with it
all my friends are in bed, and i probably should be in bed too it's really late but idc who knows i might stay up all night just because i can. okay gracc this is bad thinking for being an insomniac battling their insomnia. i'm thirsty. let's get a drink of water.
drink of water taken. back to the point of the fact that why in the world have i had this swirly design on my arm for a week now like i mean whyyy??? it was fun and i wanna keep doing it for some reason oh and SANS is amazing and i have many dream demon friends and enemies and bill cipher might have a twin???? headcanon of mine that i did tonight and i wanna make something but what, is the question

welp

g'night

i'm gonna get sleep and things

hopefully

hOI!!!

i iz TEM! these friend TEM!

Nice to see everyone today! How're you? (I'm in a cheery mood because I got a good amount of sleep, the sun is shining outside, and I have peaceful music on.) I had a very, very busy time and got a lot of stuff done and wanted to update but couldn't find any time. So let's see.

• I got TATINOF tickets (yAYA!!!)
• my friend took too many antidepressant pills (31 pills too many) and ended up at home with an IV (nONO!!!)
• my friend returned today (yAYAYA!!!!!)

Yeah. Lots of stuff. Soooooooooooo hello again then! I still haven't gotten over the fact that GRAVITY FALLS IS OVER and am immersing myself in fanart. Also in Undertale fanart. Also in crossover fanart. Just generally fanart of everything. Also, I'm doing an essay on "People that Changed the World for the Better" and I picked Dan Howell. Because he really has. I mean, there are lots of his fans that have depression and stuff and he makes them feel better about themselves. He even was part of a 24-hour radio special on BBC Radio 1 to have people donate to a charity! So yeah. He has bettered the world. (I also wanted an excuse to watch YouTube until my eyes fell out. Which I now have.)

HEY HEY THIS IS THE NEXT DAY

Guess who just CRUSHED the Constitution Test! (moi!) I AM SO HAPPY! Eighth grade ain't ready for me! And it's a half day too, so that's AWESOME. We got to watch National Treasure, which I had no idea about until now, and it was actually good! Especially with some friends, after being happy about passing the constitution test. Oh, something else- Monstercat, one of my favorite releasers has a podcast! I just now figured that out. It's a good podcast. Mostly music! Very much goodness! Listen to it! (they're on their 95th episode right now.) It's an HOUR of dubstep, electronic, dance music. All of it is COOL. so please check it out!
