I'd yammer more than I am, but I'm writing a paper for my Mythology class between posts.

Oooooooo, what on? I'm a super mythology geek!

Heroes. We had to pick two; one an actual person, and one a fictional character. I'm writing about my dad and Link from the Zelda games.

O.o
well there ya go.
not whom I would have picked if I had a mythology course, but if you're teacher lets you use video games that's AWESOME! ::is old enough that her teachers would have failed her so fast it would have killed her ancestors::

Speaking of school...

Haha. Hahahahaha. Pfft.

I just got back from an hour of detention, which I spent telling off the staff and mocking authority. Implicitly, of course. Hahahaha.

-shrug- Was just in a bad mood while feeling really sadistic. I mean, seriously, who the hell gives a referral for "illegible handwriting" that everyone knows is probably a cover-up for their losing my forms? In effect, i got a referral for them being douches.

I argued my way out of that, then, being forgetful, completely forgot to turn in the extra they gave me. And got a detention for that.

Yeah, had so much fun today being a sadistic jerk. And it was only during the last period that I learned/remembered that I've an essay due tomorrow. Which is non-existent as of right now.

And I've also got an APStats test to study for, a long-assed APStats assignment, and an APStats practice test that I'm gonna copy off the website.

Go me.

Espy...I love you right now. You remind me of all the reasons I ADORE not being in school any more. Can I keep you as a constant reminder of why higher education is just soooooo not worth the stress?

And what's your paper to be on?? I loved writting papers in school...yes, I am a total nerd.

Hooray for being done school!

Send me back now please? (to the good one, none of this high school crap!

well no, no HS...HS was hell, and I don't care how long I"m out of it I'll never change that opinion. My dilemma with higher education is I've no idea what I'd get/do. I started, and then stopped, and have no desire to finish that particular one off.

Ah. Most people from what I hear never have any idea what they want to do at university or after. I like the environment though. I'd be going for a couple of masters degrees and maybe a PH.D if I could afford it. :)

Looks like you've got a lot of work ahead of you, Espy! I wish you mucho luck! Sorry about the dickheads at your school. I got in-house suspension for three days one time because I threw gum in some girl's hair who was giving me a hard time. She told the teacher I was copying her paper and of course the teacher believed the sports freak, so the teacher failed me. So I got pissed and threw the gum in her hair. I got a talking-to from her perverted sports coach on how disgusting it was of me to throw gum in someone's hair and was telling me about how "jealousy" can affect one's behavior. Load of shit. Yeah, he didn't understand. He was probably a jock in school and got everything handed to him by his parents.

I was in zoology, and thought I knew what I wanted, then got beat to hell and back by organic chemistry three years running. I figure if I can't pass a basic course for the degree it's probably not for me.

I was suuuuuuch a nerd, I only ever got detention once, in middle school, for chewing gum in class. Yep, rebel.

I'm not even sure about college.. I would have loved to go except I have no money to go. All of these teachers feed bullshit like "Don't worry about the cost! That's why there are student loans and financial aid!" Yeah, but I don't want to be so far in the shitter when it comes to finances before I can even make a living with a degree.

If you don't want to get a loan see if you can get a scholarship or one of those work places that pays for your education

The thesis is also non-existent as of right now >.>

Even if you do get loans as long as you manage them right you'll not be too far into debt. And depending on what job you get your loans can even be 'forgiven' and nulled out.

ooo this is valuable information! *u*

yep, a friend has a non-profit job(the company's non-profit, not his actual position LOL) and because of that if he stays with teh company for...five? years his loans'll be forgiven.

and what's the goal of the paper then? I mean, we're all here and obviously willing to yammer at you for ideas.

That's way cool ^^ I will keep that in mind!

-yammer yammer yammer-

Yams sound yummy right now. Speaking of which!!!! THANKSGIVING! It's coming up soon!

I love thanksgiving!
that's the one time of year I loooooooove cooking. otherwise I sorta hate it...a lot....

I do have a list made up by our class...Have you read Camus's The Stranger?

I have not, I'm not as literate within 'classical' or 'new classical' literature...I suppose I should change that, but I'm too lazy

I love it too ^^ What is your favorite dish to cook and what is your favorite dish to eat?

I can think of at least two books called "The Stranger" by a Camus. What the guys full name?

Albert Camus, the main character is Meursault.

My favourite to cook is the turkey, I've a loooooooove brining recipie that makes it soooooooo tasty.

To eat, that'd be stuffing. I could stuff myself on stuffing. And any form of non-fruit pie....

The one also called "The Outsider" and "L'Etranger"? The one with the first person murder?

Oh goodness.. my mouth is watering because I just heard stuffing xD! I love stuffing.

I like to dip my turkey in the cranberry sauce and the mashed potatoes.

We can do it.

Just keep on posting like nobody's business

seeeeee, I don't like cranberry sauce...but I adore gravy. mmmmmmmm, gravy....
and I wanna try the recipie for a sweet potato bake..it tastes like pumpkin pie, but its a bit richer.
and maybe a good green bean casarole....

I've been posting like crazy O_O My goal is to reach 6.1k posts today and around 7k posts by the end of the week.

I am looking more at my aurum...I want to be back up to 15 k by the end of the night if all possible

GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE!!!!! Oh god, I love that! With those onion flake thingies and mushrooms! -drools-

I wanna try a new recipe this year also =) I'll have to look up something unique and suggest it to my boyfriend's mom.

or make it yourself and surprise them all as your test dummies! muahahahaha!

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..I need to find new and thanksgiving-y ways to use bacon.... There can never be too much bacon....

YESSSSS!!!! I love the surprise idea! I think I will do that ^^

I used to looooooove bacon but for some reason I'm becoming less fond of meat. There is a weird rubbery texture I started noticing in ground beef so it grosses me out to eat it, even though I love burgers ;n;

that can be due to the fat content of the burger, try leaner meat and you wont' get that, and don't cook it over low heat, cook it high. Why yes, I watched a lot of food tv LOL

And I love bacon, in nearly every form. ooooooo, maybe a bacon wrapped snackfood of some sort....

oooo what a lovely intake of information! I will try that ^^

And there is a Chinese snack food that is wrapped in bacon. I can't remember for the life of me what it's called, but it's DAMN good..

*noms on a bacon cheeseburger*

-drools over said bacon cheeseburger-

Holy crap I'm hungy.. o.o I just realized, I don't even know if I've eaten yet today!

Oh wait..... I had two pieces of pizza from last night.. but I'm hungry again! -goes to grab more pizza-

:: drools::
I'm a fount of useless info, or in the case it might be useful I suppose

Yup. That's the one.
