Before I Take My Bad Mood To Bed...  
... here's a terror meme courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] kay_cricketed which I simply Could Not Resist.

Yup, it's That Goddamned LJ Interests Terror Meme Thing again. I need to stop posting terror memes. But hey, they're fun, and the potential for randomness that my interests could induce was simply too great for me to be able to resist. Forgive me, world. But I needed to do something to cheer myself up over South Bank University screwing my placements up yet again. Plus, I think this post is rather more interesting than the last one so read this, ignore the last one, forgive rambling because brain is being stupid again, need sleep badly, etcetera.

I'm actually kind of pleased by some of these. And anyone with a passing acquaintance with me and my interests will probably have guessed why already. All must fear the LJ Interests Meme BECAUSE THE MEME IS PSYCHIC AND WILL EAT YOUR SOUL.


LJ Interests meme results



  1. cats:
    Oh, YES. Warm and snuggly bundles of evil love. How can anybody not adore cats? They're beautiful, warped creatures and I just love them for it. I live for the indifference and the spurning... or at least i do when it comes from a fuzzly kitty with lovely eyes.
  2. drawing (badly):
    ... um, yeah. Well. What can I say except that's accurate? I've been drawing for years, labored long and hard over my artwork, struggled and struggled to try and hone my talents... and have come out barely more than irredeemably awful. I can do you a mostly-decent manga character and a half-decent Ken, but anything more than that and I'm stumped. I wish I could draw.
  3. gothic fashion:
    ... it's my dress sense, what can I say? I love going round looking like a maniac and scaring the children. I don't consider myself particularly up with the Goth lifestyle; I just have a deep and abiding fascination with long skirts and trailing sleeves. And obscene lengths of ribbon.
  4. janne da arc:
    I like their music: that's really all it takes to keep me interested. It's enough for me that I listen to 'Another Story' on a regular basis. My dad kinda likes them, but largely because I keep forcing him to listen to their albums in the car and he wants to not go crazy.
  5. ken hidaka:
    So. Goddamned. Freaky. This meme knows me. It knows me in my soul. Yeah, I like Ken just a touch. I could tell you exactly why if I had 45 years and a spare pair of lungs, but as it is I'll say that what makes Ken adorable is the fact that he doesn't actually know he's adorable. Much love for seeing him with Youji in all senses of the word, but I think I probably like him best when he's angsty... and if at all possible blood-spattered and drenched in bleak rain, but if that fails I'll just take the Ken-angst. Because I love Ken so much I want to really screw him up. Repeatedly.
  6. night:
    I am a night person. I'm usually at my alertest sometime between the hours of half past ten and half two. At night. And stars are pretty, Though I never see many of them in London. Plus at night I get to sleep. Sort of.
  7. psx2:
    I really am interested in my PlayStation for all I barely touch it from one month to the next... I can't stay interested in computer games (especially not Square RPGs, which I love) for the length of time needed to complete them, but I love playing them anyway.
  8. sleeping a lot:
    I'm on my way to take a much-needed nap now, actually. I love my sleep. But perhaps not as much as I love lying on the edge of sleep and waiting to drift off. All my fantasies come out to play and it's teh awesome. Mm, naptime.
  9. vampires:
    I don't remember adding this to my interests list. Oh well, whatever, I am kind of interested in vampires. It would be kind of nice to be a vampire, actually. I could spend all day asleep then come out to terrorize the neighborhood dressed in crushed velvet.
  10. yaoi:
    tastes like candy. I can read yaoi until my brain explodes, though in all honesty I'm more into angst and character development than hot mansex (or even angst and character development and hot mansex, that would be nice). I think this ties in with the Ken-love rather more than I'm entirely comfortable with. Yes, yes, I know it should be slash now but I honestly can't be assed to go to my profile and change it.

Now I really am going to sleep before I start working myself up into a paranoid frenzy because I've managed to convince myself nobody likes me (which perhaps would be because I don't much like myself at the minute and that's mainly because I'm being stupid and whiny), such as which I haven't experienced since early adolescence. I've really had a horribly sterile and generically lousy day and my number one cure for bad days is to sleep through as much of them as is humanly possible in the hope that whatever twisted deity is delighting in tormenting me this time will get the bloody hint and leave me alone already. So it's time for bed, or at least for a concerted nap.

/laila signs out hoping for better things of tomorrow... please? Please?

I hope you get a better day tommorrow and i bet you feel a bit better after ranting for a bit right?

We all have those days where the world just seems to spit at us when we don't do a thing to deserve it...Life is down right shitty sometimes...

Again, i hope you have a way better day tom!

I'm feeling a lot better now, and rather annoyed at myself for ranting on so much yesterday. Oh well, it got it out my system at least. In all honesty I'm actually feeling kind of excited about my placement now, even if it wasn't the one I really wanted. ITU nursing's pretty cool too - the only reason I had a downer on the idea is the last time I went into an intensive care unit I was accompanying a patient I'd known for months who'd gotten very sick, and I was worried he'd die. So yeah, no wonder I didn't feel particularly keen on the idea. I like the thought of one-on-one nursing as well, it could be pretty cool.

Thanks for the support. I'd ask if you've done the mem,e but hey, Meme king, you've always done everything way before I have so that would be a pretty stupid question! I've seen you've been having a bit of a time of it too lately, though there was no way to comment on your posts... I couldn't see a comment button, just 'link'. Hope you're feeling a lot better now, and that life stops kicking you in the head with much force. Whoever it is need to go find someone else to torment, okay? You have far better things to do, like make icons featuring Kristine Sa...

Frustrated ranting really helps out sometimes..sometimes banging on a keyboard really makes it all better and sometimes telling someone else is the best placebo there is. Well i wish you the best of luck on your new placement.

As for the meme...heh...i soooo want to cheat and talk about what i want to talk about...but one side of me says "Bad!" so i'll probably do it in the clever way...pick i mean randomly pick 10 things on my interest list to talk about...heh if i'm feeling especially clever...i'll edit the code for the meme to my liking.

College just seems to compound one's issues. A small issue just gets blown out of proportion when you throw in classes that involve a lot of time. You lose that reflection time..that you use to cope and it just piles up like Tetris on lvl 9...

Thanks for asking how i feel! I'm feeling a bit better, though i think i'm a bit more wary now...i really don't want to ride that emotional roller coaster again..though i think life's gonna push me onto it anyways. All we can do is close our eyes, scream real loud, and hope that it ends soon.

Whoever it is need to go find someone else to torment, okay? You have far better things to do, like make icons featuring Kristine Sa...
Amen to that! People like us need week long vacations more often to do anything we want to do and nothing else. :sigh: we can only dream and procrastinate.

Stupid thing must have slipped my attention, then? I'd have done it earlier if I'd really taken it on board... unless of course this was the meme I saw one night after placement, was too tired to do then, decided to save until later when I could do it justice and then slipped my mind entirely? It might have been this one. Ack. It's amazing how much slips the mind after a day of endurance nursing.

(Speaking of endurance nursing, I'm going to be on placement in ITU next. I really wanted an OR, but the more I think about it I'm actually kind of excited about ITU. The OR fascination is new, but I've loved the thought of ITU nursing since my teens. Maybe this is to be my destiny after all?)

I'm not going to be round for much longer since I'm in college again tomorrow and I need to eat and get a half-decent night's sleep. The room we've been sequestered in for the course of this week is inclined to send a girl to sleep even when she hasn't been up half the night before. Meeting my father tomorrow, too, so I probably won't be round then either. Sorry, but I don't get to see him often and he's only in London for the evening. Plus, he promised to buy me a meal and... well, free food...

Food. *drool*

No worries. I'm super stressed anyway. I'm going to work on my shit for tomorrow, sleep, and not wake up again until I have to.
