Quote of the day: "If you immediately know the candlelight is fire, the meal was cooked long ago." -Oma Desala (G'ma nature, not "mother nature", as Danny's taken to calling her... Some translater he is!)
Oh, another quote of the day, courtesy of me and Bloom:
Bloom: (commenting on The Passion ) I thought the book was better.
Mich: (*confused look*) There was a ? (*drops head in hands as she realizes the title of the book Bloom referred to*)
Question of the day: How come Danny's such a bad translater?
Ted's question #Oh, say 25: How come you don't pay any attention to me when you're running around, looking for all those stupid books that seem to bore you to death?
Fanfic progress report:
Okay, I've had some people ask about why I haven't updated "Sought the Truth" or anything else lately. Here's my answer to someone:
Well, you see, I've been rather busy. I just finished my second big report of the year, which was due within two weeks of the last one, so I haven't had much time to write anything else. That and I didn't get another idea for Sought the Truth until last night. When I get caught up with my work, I"ll figure out the rest of the story and go to town working on it. I'm glad someone's looking forward to it, though.
My final answer is this: To finish that report tonight to turn it in tomorrow, I put off doing other English homework and history, as well. Upon the arrival of eighth period tomorrow, I will finally have time to work on fanfiction. I'll talk to wierdkendogirl, though, and see if she has any ideas for my spiritual fic.

Three is the number that represents wholeness and
completeness. The Pythagoreans considered three
to be the first whole number because, like
three pebbles laid out in a row, it has a
beginning, middle, and an end. Most things
come in groups of three; past-present-future or
mind-body-spirit. As a three, you will
probably experience a lot of success in your
life. Threes are lucky, rich, and easy-going,
but you can also be tempermental and
superficial.
What does your name and arithmacy say about you? (some simple knowledge of adding is required on your part)

My inner child is sixteen years old!
Life's not fair! It's never been fair, but while
adults might just accept that, I know
something's gotta change. And it's gonna
change, just as soon as I become an adult and
get some power of my own.
How Old is Your Inner Child?

Sixteen, huh? I guess I can live with that. I'd have thought that I'd be more mature, but what they hay?

A bit of insight from this and last weeks' ... annoyances... failures... shortcomings... etc.
Keeping your faults to yourself really doesn't do any good. You feel bad because of a mistake you made that you can't change. Keeping it to yourself allows it to ferment inside you wihle you puzzle others with actions that make sense only in full context. By allowing at least those you trust to know what you've done wrong, you open yourself up to help. Like gargline with alt water, you become hardened to that which ails you, which in turn allows you to find a cure.
You can't expect to understand a single aspect of life by observing it in isolation. The only way to learn everything about anything is to study it in relation to everything else.

Unless I think of you as highly as I think of Pete Shannahan, please don't read the following. (Don't flatter yourself.)
"Dear" Deutsche Baka und Beranmee:
First of all, Jesus Christ is NOT a swear word, you illiterate idiots! Your mere presence is more insulting than any of the messages on the CHRISTIAN t-shirts I wear. If you spent half the energy you spend repeating "devil worshipper" on putting forth the effort to actually read my shirts, you'd have noticed that I've been wearing Christian shirts to school for the past two weeks, four of which actually has the two aforementioned words printed on them, the remainder with Bible verses. But you're too busy trying to think up pitiful names to call a particular introvert to put forth that gigantic effort and chance for humiliation to actually read. I'd be willing to bet that the only reason you could read my shirt today was because you've seen Jesus Christ written somewhere, used as a swear word. If you ever listened (I know, a novel concept.) you might have noticed that I have never once used the Lord's name in vain. And I shan't.
Bet it was a big shock to you when I flipped out in class instead of holding back and turning the other cheek. You just took one too many steps. Keep it up and I promise I'll be making a nice stop in at the guidance office or wherever I need to go to get you to shut your Texas-sized mouth(s). I'm tired of having to put up with your verbal persecution (get out a dictionary for that one). I'm tired of it. Yeah, sure, so I walked into a signpost one day during a false fire alarm. Yes, it was funny... for the first hour, maybe two days. I laughed, too. But, come on? AFTER TWO OR THREE MONTHS, IT'S JUST NOT FUNNY ANYMORE!
And "devil worshipper"? What in the world do you call that? I mean, you have got to be kidding me! If that's so, then answer me these:
1) Why is there a crèche in my locker?
2) Why is there a Bible in my locker?
3) Why have I been wearing Christian shirts to school for the past two weeks solid and intermittently before that?
4) Why have I been wearing a cross necklace to school for the past 2 weeks solid and intermittently before that?
5) Why have I bothered to put up with your crap for so long?
6) Why did I attend the thirty-hour famine, a Christian event, last weekend and raise $135 for it?
7) Why do I attend church every Sunday, as I've done for my whole life?
8) Why do I attend church camp every year?
9) Why is there a +1 (Christian rock group) CD in my CD player, as well as ApologetiX, top 30 Christian hits, and Newsboys CDs in my World Vision (Christian charity) CD case?
10) Why did I give up soda for Lent?
11) Why do I annually attend Creation (week-long Christian rock concert) during summer?
12) Why am I writing a Christian Stargate fanfic?
13) Why are so many Christian-related ideas mentioned and discussed in my fanfics?
That is the most bogus accusation I have ever heard in my life. Give it up, beranmee!
If you think you're so wonderful that you have this devil-granted right to annoy me to my wits' end, you must be perfect, right? It must be so enlightening to be perfect. Now, I'm just curious--I want to make sure my torturers are, of course, perfect, so will you please TRY WALKING ON WATER? I'll understand if you can't do it; it just means you aren't perfect and, therefore, have no right or reason to continue harassing me.
Sincerely,
B.
(And, yes, you may address me as B from now on. I won't take offense unless it is used in conjunction with some other derogatory term which I have not agreed to prior to your use of said term.)
From the aforementioned +1 CD:
You must have never fallen short
Always doing the right thing
Cause if you ain't so perfect
Then don't throw another stone at me
