Hey, you! Awesome follower!
What part of college life or life in general that I haven’t yet rambled about should I be rambling about? Have any ideas? I need suggestions, particularly from all of you fantastical people who actually read my rambles, because you’re the best! Obviously!
Tagged by you-have-lost-the-game:
1. Favorite singer/group?
Hmm. I can never choose favorites of anything! I have a lot of bands and singers that I really like… at the moment, I’m really into Jose Gonzalez again. But there are so many!
2. Favorite movie?
You keep making me choose! Ah! Um… The Girl in the Cafe. No one has seen this movie, but EVERYONE should see this movie.
3. Favorite song at the moment?
“Civilian” by Wye Oak, “Thoughts of Flight” by Arthur Darvill. So many more, ugh… XD
4. Favorite TV programme?
Sherlock. The BBC version. No competition.
5. Favorite YouTube video?
These “favorite” questions are killing me! XD Ummm…
Favorite funny video: BRONTESAURUS (Romantic literature, feminism, and Transformers)
Favorite music-themed video: You’re the Most Beautiful Girl (in this particular chem lab, anyway) (because really, no music library is complete without this)
Favorite artsy video: And On The Eighth Day… God Got Bored (cause I know the amazing chick who spent days making this one frame at a time)
Favorite video to send to friends at 3am: Jim Carrey Does the Dinosaur (just because)
6. Favorite food?
Baked things! If it’s chocolate and baked, I probably love it!
7. Favorite game?
Oh gosh. There are some amazing boardgames that I love to try to force my siblings to play with me for hours on end. Dread Pirate comes to mind. I also love playing cards— Hearts and Ratslap/Egyptian Ratscrew and BS— with mi amigos from high school because that was fantastic.
8. Favorite book?
Again with the impossible questions! Um… Happy Potter. The Hobbit. Anything Terry Pratchett, or Chima, or the Percy Jackson books by Rick Riordan, or Trenton Lee Stewart’s Benedict Society. I love fantasy books. But honestly, there are so many other books that have been my favorites that this list could go for days.
9. Someone that you love (fictional or non-fictional)?
Fictional: Ron Weasley. Non-fictional: Benedict Cumberbatch, haha.
10. Someone that you hate (fictional or non-fictional)?
I have a very hard time finding people to hate, but I’ll throw Umbridge on that list. XD
11. Something you’re obsessed with?
Hmm… purple, sea turtles, the BBC, Cabin Pressure, posters, Christmas lights, the internet, painting? So many things~!
My questions for you (should you fill this out):
1. Favorite TV show
2. One thing you love
3. One habit of yours
4. Favorite actor and actress
5. You can go to: Hogwarts, Narnia, Middle Earth. Choose one!
6. Describe your pets
7. You fall in a vat of toxic waste and are given superpowers! What’s your power AND your weakness?
8. Favorite holiday?
9. Recommend one song, musician, and band, and none of them can be the same.
10. Favorite quote from anyone and anything, and of course where it comes from
11. Poof! A genie! But you only get 2 wishes— what are yours?
I won’t tag anyone specifically, but please, fill this out yourselves if you’re so inclined (and let me know so I can see your answers, bwahahaha)!
I’d like you all to meet my study buddy. Jarvis. Say hello, Jarvis.
Three days ago I pulled my first all-nighter (scratch that one off the bucket list) writing a paper for my archaeology class. Interesting experience.
Jarvis was my distraction at about 1:30am; his sweater was a 3:45am addition, because all unimpressed motivational cups should have snappy sweaters (so says my 3:45am logic). By 5am, Jarvis and I were essentially permanently best friends. By 6am, I realized I’d befriended a cup and needed to walk around.
Anyway, this is Jarvis. He stared at me disapprovingly every time I went to open my email tab or tumblr or anything else that was not a copy of my essay. He’s very judgmental. Now he’s sitting on my desk and staring at my pile of laundry and my messy bed and is positively livid about them.
This is Jarvis, who is apparently capable of motivating me into doing work at ungodly hours.
Something’s wrong with me.
andrewdread asked: where are mine FLAPJACKS???
Flapjacks?!?!

LIKE THE PANCAKE SHARK THAT I AM
Spam my inbox, my pretties! Spam! Spam!
I’ll answer any and all manner of ridiculous questions.
Anonymous asked: What's something you hate about college?
Something I hate? Oh god, very little, to be honest. College is 67% brilliant, 24% fantastic, 8% interesting, and 1% displeasing.
If I had to choose one thing about college that I really actually HATE…
I hate waking up in the morning to find someone glued a bagel to my door.
true story
Anonymous asked: Can you describe your motivational struggles this semester?
Ah yes, motivation.
Motivation and I have not liked each other this semester. I generally hit a point in every school year where the two of us simply part ways, but this semester (I think for a number of reasons which include 1. I’m tired, 2. I’m tired and 3. I’m really tired) I’ve had a really hard time forcing myself to keep a schedule that is both efficient and sensible.
It’s how I find myself on the computer at 3am on a Wednesday watching A Very Potter Musical while crocheting the world’s ugliest towel.
