Okay, so just recently my house has been acting haunted. For the past week, it's been trying to set itself on fire in a variety of ways. (Ex. electric cords going crazy and popping, smoke detectors going nuts, microwave peels back its own paint and sparks, etc.) And just recently I took home a robotic baby for my Intro to Nursing course and everything went to hell. At 2:22 a.m. the baby woke up and I was rocking it when all the sudden the speaker on the baby starts spitting out static and garbled stuff. Then, everything that was hanging on my walls JUMPED off and onto the floor. One of my mirrors broke and I didn't sleep for the rest of the night. Later I checked around the house and nothing else was knocked out of place or anything. I figured it could have been a small earthquake or something, but I guess not.

Hey, did any of you do something interesting for Halloween? I dressed up, of course (as America from Hetalia). And I'm about to head out to take my little cousins trick-or-treating. How about you?

Hey there! Just wondering if there are any OB members we need to be worried about that are getting the worst of Hurricane Sandy. Personally, I am about 6-8 hrs. from NYC and we don't expect much other than rain and high winds. The school and the nursing program called to let me know that I don't need to come in tomorrow, so that's good. So to anyone that's more directly in the path of Sandy, especially in NYC and the coast, please stay safe, okay?

There have been a surprising number of fistfights in my Introduction to Nursing class... I think I've learned to just ignore them at this point, though. I'm pretty sure I sprained my ankle after slipping down the stairs today, but I'm hoping that ice will take care of that. At least I don't have school tomorrow because of staff development day.

I showed up relatively recently (at least in comparison to some here), so my memories are mainly of mods like Rachmaninoff and of Aceburner having dial-up. Haha, I was [i]really[/i] hyper... And the hyperactivity only intensified when CrimsonKnight/Lunar showed up.

Thread re-resurrection wheeeeee!!!!! I picked up both copies of the game on Sunday and haven't put my main game, White 2, down since. I like how fluid the battle animations are and I love my team, but something's bugging me... I kind of feel like I'm playing through someone's Pokemon fanfic. And what the heck happened to Brycen?! He was supposed to be all cold and quiet, but now he's apparently a loud actor playing an over-the-top villain?! How OOC can you get?!

HEY GUYS. LETâ??S DISCUSS SOMETHING THAT JUST HAPPENED. My Dad just told me that between me or my sister, he thought [b][i]I[/i][/b] was the one most at risk to get pregnant out of wedlock. WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! HOW EVEN-?! I DONâ??T-! HA HA HA. IF ONLY HE KNEW THAT I AM A LESBIAN. WAIT, WAIT. What, you may ask, was his reasoning? OH QUITE SIMPLE, REALLY. You see, I have â??forgotten my Catholic faith.â? HA HA. Itâ??s like a really ignorant, twisted version of Mufasaâ??s cloud-speech from The Lion King.

So I realized I'm turning 18 in October and I haven't put up a picture of myself in a while... [img]http://i50.tinypic.com/24pmj55.jpg[/img] It's kind of weird when I look at my old pictures...

Been working in the ER and it is GLORIOUS! I'm never bored since there's always something to do, and everything I do, I enjoy! The ENT (ear, nose, throat) Clinic is not as busy and not as fun, but it has its moments. I mostly do office work, but whenever the clinic is packed I do arts and crafts with the kids. One kid asked me to draw him some alligators: Him: "Miss! Miss! Can you draw me alligators?" Me: "You want more than one?" "Uh-huh!" "Uhhh... How many alligators?" "ALL OF THEM." "All of them?" "Yeah!" "ALL of the alligators in the world?" "Yes!" "..... There are only three alligators in the world."

I have a question for the American OB members out there! Whatcha' doin' for the 4th of July? My plans will mainly consist of setting off illegal fireworks in my backyard and roasting marshmallows over the flaming wreckage that is sure to follow. I will aslo be trying my best to construct a sculpture of a bald eagle made entirely from bacon and toothpicks. (I did something similar a while back with maple bacon in the shape of a moose.) I'm actually kind of excited for it! :D But how about you?

Well, I ended up getting into the volunteer service at the hospital! I'm working in the ER on Tuesdays and then the ENT Center on Thursdays. I had plans to actually get a good night's sleep tonight, but then I decided to re-read the Series of Unfortunate Events books. Oops.

Went to a friend's house today for a party and that was buckets of fun~! We started a bonfire, but some dude no one even invited kept messing around with it. We told him to sit his butt down in a chair and stop spreading smoke everywhere and he just started going, "I don't think you guys understand! I've been on, like, eighteen camping trips!" Obviously no one was impressed, so he sat around babbling about air flow and proper wood stacking techniques. Still, I had s'mores so I guess everything worked out well. Oh, also, Camping Dude ended up cutting my neck with a tree branch. I do [i]not[/i] like Camping Dude.

[quote name='James' timestamp='1340239835' post='712059'] [font=palatino linotype]Here's a tip: don't ever watch surgery-related videos when you are about to get surgery. It never ends well. You should find that it goes pretty smoothly. Are you going into hospital or are you having the surgery done in the dentist chair? I think that can make quite a difference. I've had teeth removed, but only at the dentist so far (at some point I need to organise to have several extracted at once in hospital).[/font] [/quote] Dentist's chair. *shiver* My main concern is that I know very well that I would be one of those people that spews words when loopy. I really don't want to end up saying or doing something I shouldn't.

I really love how this series is being handled in terms of the events in the episodes! Every episode feels like something extremely important is going on! My only complaint right now is that there seems to be a severe lack of earthbending in the series. I don't count metalbending, though I do love the cops and their cables. To me the fight scenes involving earthbending in A:TLA were much more impressive. They gave a sense of being [i]huge! [/i]The earthbending in the current series just looks like a bunch of rocks being tossed around, and it isn't used very often in comparison to the other elements. I also would like for Bolin to have more development. He could be so much more than a comic relief character! And I'd rather have more of a spotlight on him than his brother. We've already [i]had [/i]a brooding firebender. [spoiler]I can't wait to see more of General Iroh, though I don't really like that they gave him the same voice actor as Zuko.[/spoiler]

I'm going to have my wisdom teeth taken out pretty soon and I'm extremely nervous. Not about anything going horribly wrong, but I've been watching videos lately where people are loopy beyond all reason after the surgery. I don't want to be one of those people. O_O

Stayed at my friend's house last night and played Amnesia: Dark Descent for the first time. Spent most of the time screaming and hiding in corners.

I GOT A HAIRCUT~!!! After growing it long for a year and a half, I had 11 inches cut off! My hair is so fluffy and light and bouncy and eeeeeeeeee!!!!! <3

Macadamia nuts are really good! They have an odd texture, but the flavor is really light. They're good alone, but are best in cookies because they get even softer when cooked that way.
