NF friends are awesome!

so, me, thinking i'm rather freakin' clever, was like, "yeah. i'm gonna go ahead and upload all the icons for the rest of the month RIGHT NOW!" which, honestly isn't a bad idea. and actually would be rather clever and convenient. but when i tried to do it, Photobucket was like, "what? you want to use the multiple upload functionality? and you know it'll work cuz you've done it dozens of times before? no, you're wrong! i hate your face!" and personally, i thought that was a little bit harsh. but apparently Photobucket disagrees, and since it's 11pm. i really don't have time to reason with it right now.

so, i just had a most awesome convo with Lydia! i got to vent so my head won't be exploding after all! AND i still think it would be hilarious if we really did do the collab we were talking about. at the very least, we would thoroughly amuse ourselves.

i also am still talking to Dome. <3 for anyone who doesn't know, Dome is the best person with which to discuss the parallels between Buffy and Dr Who. i would even go so far as to say that, if you haven't already, you should watch both series just so that you can have such conversations. XDoh! writer's block! writer's block!ack! so, on Saturday, at my Aunty Judy's wedding reception, i forgot my purse. since my mom was going to visit her today anyway, she's bringing it home with her. which is really good, cuz it means i can stop driving without my license now! #examplesofwhatyoushouldntdoso, we're already more than half way through April, and as we get closer to the end, i can't help feeling like we should be preparing for something else in May. some other activity we can do every day that connects and strengthens friendships. **watched Dome's latest video**

alright, it's time for me to go to bed. g'night!

((NOTE)) 4/20/2010: i don't know what happened with the formatting on that last paragraph, but i didn't write it as one huge block of text. that's so awful! :/

inspired

i was just reading Lydia's blog and, as per usual, was inspired. she always writes the lovliest things and makes me consider what's going on in my life.
now, i don't know how many sunny days there are in California, but i do know that i have a pretty sunny life (despite the clouds currently threatening rain outside). my life is filled with laughter and friendship and inspiration and fun plans.
i've been thinking a lot about my life in general lately, especially since designing the wall behind me in my videos. it's covered with places/events i've been to, music i like, and friends i've made.
not too long ago, i was quite depressed. all my irl friends were out of town, i was feeling less and less of a connection to them anyway, and i just couldn't seem to find a purpose. like, a "what the hell am i doing with my life?" purpose.
it's so different from today, where i'm planning today's video(for 7NAP), thinking of how i'll be editing another video(for my channel), checking the VidCon countdown, figuring a savings plan to go to England, collecting things for my culture packages, and finding a theme for the next Nerdfighter gathering.
it's ironic how my irl friends being out of town or in other countries means not talking to them and growing apart, but half of my online friends are in other countries and we talk all the time and are constantly growing closer.
maybe that has more to do with me changing and the kind of people i choose as friends. but whatever it may mean, the fact remains: while my life could use more money, better focus, and a bit more exercise, there's definitely no lack of sunshine!
