Friends Only

Although all my fics and some other of my interesting entries/rants/essays are public, most of my entries concerning my personal life (or that have pictures of me) are friends-only.  Please comment to be added.

Randoms adding me (without commenting) are a bit creepy and won't be accepted. :)

Gay Rights Day!

  • Oct. 28th, 2009 at 4:11 PM
*Proud* Ryan/Lucas
First off, fantastic news, which I making this entry on via my cell phone-- Obama has signed the Matthew Shepard Act into law today!! Attacks/crimes against people because of their sexuality is now officially a federal hate crime!! *wears Matthew Shepard hat with pride*

Also, coincidentally, on campus today at 4:30 (which I'm currently waiting for), there is a major debate between the President of the National Organization for Marriage (big Anti-gat marriage group) and the President of Marriage Equality for New York on the issue of gay marriage entitled "Who Should Marry?". It will be interesting to say the least, because I've yet to hear a real arguement against same-sex marriage that makes any sense or holds water at all. It is always either religion, ignorance, or lies from the opponents.

I'm actually shocked the NOM leader agreed to this, which is mostly why I'm going--currently alone but maybe someone I know will show up. And I will not be silent the entire time if I'm allowed to make questions or comments because that's practically impossible for me on this issue. I wonder if any college student NOM supporters will show up--there are a bunch of kids here with me already holding support same-sex marriage signs. So I wonder if the other side of people my age will show up too, as I'm sadly sure they exist (although it's one thing to have that opinion, and another to fee strongly enough to go to a debate about it) and wonder why they feel that way.

Will probably post a longer entry later and fill you all in more on this and on the many crazy things going on in my life that I meant to do last week. (Things are ridiculously busy.)

Matthew Shepard Act Update!!

I have a lot to update all of you on, since I will finally have some time today. Although I'm going to the doctor in an hour, so can't say too much right now. But I would be totally out of line not to inform everyone of this:



New York Times:

House Votes To Extend Hate Crmes Definition

WASHINGTON-- The House voted Thursday to expand the definition of violent federal hate crimes to those committed because of a victim's sexual orientation, a step that would extend new protection to lesbian, gay, and transgender people.

Democrats hailed the vote of 281 to 146, which brought the measure to the brink of becoming law, as the culmination of a long push to the curb violent expressions of bias like those of the 1998 murder of Matthew Shepard, a gay Wyoming college student.

Today is Bisexual Pride Day.

I'm bisexual and proud of it!

It was not easy coming to that realization however.

On that note, I leave you with a link to my LJ entry from March 2008, of my top ten hottest people...which hasn't altered too much since then. Also links to what I think are the hottest videos. XD (and here's the link to the "Beautiful Liar" video since it's not working on my other LJ entry)

So fucking pissed right now.

Gang Rape on Campus

  • Sep. 16th, 2009 at 1:26 PM
HP Dumbledore looking back

This past Sunday, at 3AM, in a dorm building diagonally across from my own, a girl was gang-raped in the bathroom by five different guys. One was a campus student, the rest were off-campus friends of his. The police (thanks most likely to the fact that all the guys DID check in with the RSR and their drivers liscences were put into the system as is mandated by campus security) have caught four of the boys, one is still on the run but is known to police and has obviously been banned from campus. 

The Actual Crime and Aftermath )

Some disgusting reactions to this terrible event )

And anyone who finds it appropriate to openly theorize the girl deserved it or she's saying it only because she hates minorities or some stupid shit like that derserves to be charged with something too and I only hope that the poor girl hasn't heard any of that crap. She's already a victim as is. She doesn't deserve to be the subject of stupid comments too.

Gay Marriage in Vermont!

  • Sep. 1st, 2009 at 1:46 PM
*Proud* Gabriella/Vanessa
As of today, gay marriages can now be performed in the state of Vermont!

Ben&Jerry's have even changed their ice cream flavor "Chubby Hubby" to "Hubby Hubby" in celebration of this!

New Hampshire same-sex marriages will start January 1, 2010.
 
And September 11, 2009 Maine ones will start too, however the following November a vote may be held to veto the marriages, so there's still a bit of a battle there.

But it still certainly makes me happy and hopeful for the future here.

LiveJournal Mobile, from my dorm!

StillThereForMe
Hey all! I'm back at my dorm!

Unfortunately, the internet from my computer isn't working because I forgot my ethernet cable (hopefully, my mom will find it soon!) So I decided to try out LJ Mobile from my phone (typing on which is annoying). Because (and no matter how many times it happens I still don't get it) despite internet not working on my labtop it does work on my phone.

So I'm going to work on some of the prompts (word still works after all). Good thing wrote that annoying list the other day!

That's all for now, because typing this is quite annoying, and I'm not sure this will work yet...

Okay, I just tried several times to redo that damn list that is my previous entry. I get it all nice and perfect, and then something freaking happens and either half the list disappears, or the lj-cut screws up or names dissapear and UGH.

So i give up on that formatting. it's as close to good as it is going to be (as in--all the prompts are there, but some names are missing and the LJ cut is screwed up).

*kicks LJ*

Why is it so hard to make a simple list?

LJ Comment Stats Not Working!

  • Aug. 25th, 2009 at 1:24 PM
Troy gaydar broken
I haven't done LJ stats in a while, and I figured now would be a good time (also, I have been thinking of doing a Flist cut, which I've never done but thought that seeing if anyone has been leaving no comments on my LJ would be a good way to judge).

But for some reason, it keeps not working!

I keep logging in, then clicking next, and then it says downloading, but then a box pops up saying "file is empty"!

I uninstalled and then reintalled the program, and it still gives me the same problem.

Is anyone else having this issue? Are the changes and updates to LJ in general the reason it's not working?

And if so, has anyone found a program to replace this older one?

Writing Meme Going Strong Still!

Two more fics up, not too long but not that short either!

Both with Firelord Azula actually... (how'd I get so comfortable with writing Azula?)

One of [info]beckyh2112 's prompts , asking for "Azula as Firelord with Haru as her Firelady," which I wrote Firelord and Lady.

The other is a prompt of [info]fire_lord_azula 's, asking for Ursa's reaction to her daughter as Firelord, to which I wrote Monster.

Hopefully I'll get a few more down today! I'm on a roll! XD

(even though I should be doing more packing--I have done some, but I am moving my stuff to my dorm in a few days...but this is fun and going well!!)

Writing Meme=Awesome

HSM Dancing in Rain

I seriously love this Writing Meme! I've got another story finished, and have realized and decided I love writing Azula/Mai/Ty Lee. Those girls are awesome, and leave room for femslash. I've got a couple of ideas for bigger fics too with them already. I finished another little fic with them yesterday (that has hints of femslash of the Tyzula variety) that I think turned out pretty good.

What I like best about this writing meme is the fact that it's getting me back in the writing habit and giving me idea for non-fic stories as well, which is what I had most hoped for when I decided to do this meme!

I'll probably be closing it soon, but especially for those on my flist it IS still open, mostly because I love the ideas people are coming up with. And again, if you have ideas for HSM prompts, or something of the iCarly or Drake&Josh variety, it IS welcome and allowed! So far I have only one HSM and two HP and one Jonas Brothers prompt as far as non-Avatar prompts go. :)
 

Feeling Worse Today...

  • Aug. 20th, 2009 at 1:03 PM
HP Hermione Drowning
Ever since I've been taking the medication for my bronchitis, I've been feeling better. However, today for some reason my coughing has gotten almost as bad as it was the first day. And even sneezing I'm getting that bad taste in my mouth. Not fun. But I don't think I'm contagious anymore since my brother and sister have been hanging around me all week and they haven't started coughing at all. But still...not fun coughing.

Also have a headache and feel like crap.

And I have a driving lesson today! Not looking forward to that at all. I've got a feeling coughing while you drive isn't such a good idea. But I doubt my mom will cancel it since she already cancelled my sister's today since she and the instructor got in a major fight last time.

I haven't been able to practice since our last lesson, even though I told him I would. But with my dad quitting smoking and all, I haven't wanted to ask him, plus I actually have been busy, or at least busier than I thought. I just hope he isn't that angry at me. :(

Writing meme still going pretty well, I've got one prompt down (fairly long) and ideas for a few of the others already and started writing some of them too. Hopefully they all won't be as long as this first one. I've got to learn to be more concise. Not only for the sake of the prompts, but if I'm less worried about going on forever, I probably won't be as hesitant to write in general. :)

There was a lot to be gained by being friends with Azula )
