soo..
that was possibly the worst birthday i've had in recent memory
i did finally get around to redoing my hair tho. cut it and dyed it. mostly just a trim, but also an experiment..i now have bangs an inch or two longer than chinlength. still trying to decide if i like it or not. they're now purple, and the rest of my hair is a mix of different deep reds
and elspeth is spiffo..she gave me blacklightreactive bubblesoap (i already had a blacklight. mm..shiny..), and a really kickass pair of chopsticks. black *and* sprakley *and* textured *and* hellokitty. all in one. w00t.
and now i'm going to get dressed and wander off towards voicelessonland and then take a nap. mmm...sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

beltmaking tonight. and yay.

..ugh..

my authcard (with quals from february and june. it's just taken until october for it to show up) has apparently finally gotten here, and i'll get it next time i see teo
i have a rather nasty bruise on my butt..stumbled backwards at fencing today into a table. hard. ouch. hurts when i walk. whee d:
good bruises on my arms and righthand too. whee. or something.

it's got evil fairies.

tickets, call 255-9521 or email Ann at akn4@cornell.edu

so.much.ddr tonight. w00t. went down to PLAY after skriker rehearsal because i had waaaay too much extra energy to be able to sleep (ithaca people..come see the skriker! i'm in it! it opens friday! today was my first rehearsal! is friday, saturday, sunday in ristheater. no, i don't know what time. or how much tickets cost. i might find out tho. it's a weird play about evil celtic faeries driving people crazy). did about 3 hours with a total of about ten minutes in breaks. which amounts to a metric fuckload of exercise. and i'm still not tired enough to sleep, but my feet hurt because i wore down the calluses and sliced the bottom of one of my toes open. but i had a really good night anyway. so there hah. and fanta and coke mixed together are quite good, even tho i like neither fanta nor coke plain
i FCed (FC==full combo, means i got all of the steps either exactly on the beat or bloody close to it) hero (happygrandale mix) on trick, was one good away from doing it basic doubles, and finally passed it on maniac. also finally passed boys and dive and a couple other things on maniac that i'd not gotten before, and i'm starting to get the weird rhythm thingies in a lot of songs better. and yay. and i got immensely flattered by some guy who's only been playing a couple weeks. but who's already depressingly good, tho nowhere near as scarily so as angela is. lalala. DDRrambling all done now i think
life. right. i pretend to have one sometimes. i seem to have acquired a boy, old english is superspiffy and i'll prolly be in the thingie that the medievalstudies department puts on near christmas where people perform things in dead languages. w00t. and my old english prof is trying to convince me to go to the old norse reading group on wednesdays. i might start doing that on wednesdays i can't get to fencing
speaking of which, i had an incredible fencingday on sunday..not many students around so i spent all of practise fencing page and teo. page says i'm about as good as he was when he started winning tournaments. i doubt that'll start happening to me any time soon tho, since when he started there was prolly less competition. ooh..and i got a replacement form from teo for the two auth cards from february and june that never got sent to me. and monday did thrownweapons all by myself, and am starting to get the hang of it more..finally figured out what was causing the occasional weirdscary wobbliness in my throws. and! lauren and teo gave me birthdaypresent! cake decorating kit..tips and bags and lilynails and such
dad came up to visit saturday. dinner was awesome (madeline's). we got into a bit of a fight later, but i think it's okay now? i hope so? i rather unfortunately had used up all my brainpower friday morning on hardhardhard ling309 prelim
my backpack's final semi-functioning zipper is throwing way more fits than usual now *pout* i need new backpack. and backrub. yup. and more fencing. always more fencing. whee (:
i think i'm almost ready for my buckler qual. so i should get that and then work on cloak, and pick up dagger with schlager some more, amd mebbe try case soon too
um..yeh
whee
come see skriker

i think i win the 'sylvie is really frustrated' prize. whee.
partly it seems like over the past 6 months or so i've lost all of my close friends to distance and/or their significantothers, and partly because i'm really not fencing any more. i'm still going to practises, but i'm not learning fencing..i'm learning how to teach fencing. most of the good myrkie fencers have either moved away (ru+john, simon), or stopped fencing (jerry), or don't show up often (domnall, page). so teo and lauren are the only people who show up fairly regularly who are definitely better than i am, and they're always late and they and i spend all of our time teaching now anyway because there're so many newbies. and lauren and teo don't really seem to care much about fencing any more anyway. i think they're bored or something. during the summer i could vaguely regularly get rides to delftwood, but domnall's been too busy recently, rick has a lab wednesday nights that he's too lazy to make up another night, lauren's house is falling apart, els doesn't care enough about fencing to go that far for it, and none of the heavies ever go to delftwood
and since i don't really have any close friends any more, fencing is pretty much all i care about, and i'm not even doing it. and there isn't even anyone i can blame. i can't make people care as much as i do, and i can't make their lives and schedules less busy. but i also can't make myself care less, and i can't walk to syracuse, nor can i fence with myself. i still get all of my thursdayhomework done tuesday night/wednesday morning so i don't have to worry about doing it wednesday night on the off chance i can get a ride to practise, but it's been nearly a month since that's happened. and if my fencing isn't getting worse, it's at best not improving, which upsets me
i think i'm going to email don keyard and maybe don ryan and see if they have any suggestions for things i can work on by myself, since that seems to be pretty much my onoly choice for now

amused i am

sylvie

sylvie is a security camera that rotates at high speed! It is two inches tall.

sylvester

sylvester is a hammer! It can bring down an elephant!

saw powerpuffgirls movie today
whee (:
oh god too much cuteness
*twitchdie*
whee sugarshock

and whee allergymeds while i'm at it..i think the 'd' in allegra-d is for dopey. or drowsy. or maybe just drugged.
it's kinda cool..i feel like i'm floating about an inch off my bed and like all of my parts are disconnected and working independently. typing is a bit disorienting..so much to think about
i feel like i ought to be really relaxed, but i'm still tense. ohwell.

it strikes me that it's prolly pretty sad that i'm listening to ddr music
whee d:

it strikes me that doing pool and spinning poi are the two biggest reasons i don't go to bed early enough. i are this many smart.
tho at least i'm getting better at poi now. so mebbe by next pennsic i can try fire. maybemaybemaybe. i'm starting to be able to do harder things, and everything is getting cleaner, especially my transitions between things. whee (:
i was terrible at archery today, but did well at throwing axes. axes good.
last week took ling 203 prelim, thought i did badly on it. got it back today, 94!!!
w00t.
and my oldenglish prof thinks i'm smart
and school is officially Awesome
and after my voicelesson tomorrow, i'm going to go home and SLEEP
or spin poi
one or the other
yup
bah. and yet i'm still impressively tense. i need to learn to worry less i think. or something.
i read the hero and the crown yesterday, and most of the blue sword today, and the princess bride a few days ago. yay books for the cheering up of sylvies. (:
i go be horizontal and unconscious now. yup.

*whining ahead*
blehhh
prelims are evil. and bad. i prolly got like a b or something on that, which while not being horrible is definitely worse than i should be doing in this class
and my left knee has decided to start collapsing under me again and it hurts. a lot. and is really really really frustrating
on top of that, i've got a really bad headache but i can't take anything for it because of the meds i'm taking for my knees which don't seem to be helping right now
and my asthma stuff is making me twitchy and cranky and the kneestuff and allergystuff are making me groggy and cranky
and it doesn't help that since i can't really walk much i can't really go anywhere or do anything
so i'll sit here and look frustrated and lonely and depressed for a while. whee.
*end whining*

fire! and Big Heavy Hammers!
page brought some of his metalworking stuff to fightpractise today, so instead of fencing i started making a penannular brooch. and it was fun. and my arm is tired, because i somehow ended up using the one hammer that was way heavier than the others. page said i was doing very well for just having started, but i'm never quite sure how much his compliments are actually honest and how much is just him hitting on me
but hammers are fun
whee (:
this week is going to be madcrazy hectic..sooo much work is due. yuck. two probses for tomorrow and a prelim wednesday and a bunch of reading and a bunch of memorizing and such for later in the week, and more prelims yet to be announced that are coming up very shortly and a presentation also coming up. whee?
and i'm so tense that things like sitting are painful


mike..when are you coming up here and for how long?

bedtime for me
yup
pool was Good
unfortunately i have to get up in 5 hours d:

i can't sleep but am too twitchy and spacey to actually be productive. that's what lj is *for*, yes?
i start voicelrssons next week! and yay. and such.
old english is officialy the Spiffiest Class Ever (So Far)
i think ima go to pool tonight
elz is working on models for setdesignclass, so our room smells like glue and paint and is covered with bits of foamboard and such anyway. i'm guessing she's gonna be up pretty late
sang mads with elly today! and yay. singing is Good
and i now know most of the lyrics to the song baska was singing at pennsic with the refrain about no nay never we want our beer etc
and have been annoying elz by singing it waaay too much. because it's stuck in my head
could be worse tho..i had the officialragnesfolkesong stuck in my head, and it isn't even really a song. la la la.
i go wander off, see if pool is set up.
yup.

..oy..
read down to the bottom
whee silly

note to self: don't be a fucking moron. eat when you're taking lots of meds.
throwing up when there's basically nothing in your stomach is veryvery unpleasant. is like shooting a bow with no arrow..both systems are meant to release a burst of energy into some kind of projectile, and when there's no projectile, the system is forced to reabsorb that energy, which isn't good for it.
ugh.
on a plus note, i can breathe again. yay drugs. boo drugs. etc.
*flup*
yay braincells. now if only i had some..
