Pollen season is coming, unfortunately. It hasn't hit me yet. But it will. Later.

by Ivona no Fyra Wed Apr 01, 2015 12:16 am

..It snowed here today.
Maybe I'll get my wish and all those blasted wasps will perish because spring never comes.

(..that involves other consequences too though so it's probably better that doesn't happen)

by drpdrp97 Wed Apr 01, 2015 10:35 pm

It's 80-90 degrees here, how the hell are people still getting snow?

I'll be in Nashville next week, getting my first good look at the colleges around there. I don't think anyone here lives near Nashville though, do they? :/

by LongHairedAelita Fri Apr 03, 2015 3:30 pm

I live in North Carolina lol. I'm one state over.

I just got done working out and I think I did something to my left leg.. its hurting really bad. Sad

Pollen season started here a long time ago. It literally rains pollen whenever we get a stiff breeze, and I'm always combing it out of my hair.

What I'm really surprised about is the apparent lack of caterpillars on campus this year. I saw a ton of them downtown the other day. Then I learned that our university remulched everything just before they were supposed to start hatching and probably relocated all the eggs. Holy crap.

We get these

and some that look kind of like these with red heads.

Hm, Tent caterpillars, and something that looks like it's related to the Hickory Tussock moth.. We got a lot of each around here. Observing the kinds of trees they're on would also help in identification.

by drpdrp97 Thu Apr 09, 2015 6:25 pm

Okay.

Definitely not going to Vanderbilt. Screw. That. Place.

In other news I pretty much destroyed my fairly new djembe drum. ;~;

by LongHairedAelita Fri Apr 10, 2015 11:36 pm

So, I'm listening to this song called Turn Me On that randomly came on one of my Jpop radio stations on Pandora..... and.... It actually sounds like something Aelita would sing to Jeremie to seduce him. Lol.

On another note, I have to work from dawn until dusk tomorrow so I'm gonna be smart and go to bed. night y'all.

FL Studio Strings + Vocoder = pretty much the same sound of the strings in A World Without Danger. It brings a tear to my eye.

EDIT: https://soundcloud.com/chesterkiwi-the-great/a-world-without-danger-midi-version

A snippet of the MIDI Version of my A World Without Danger tab is available, obviously going to sound really crappy because it's using stock MIDI samples, but it's an idea of how the actual thing is going to sound, if I can ever get my snare samples to sound just right.

by Ivona no Fyra Sun Apr 12, 2015 12:29 am

Well it gives me the nostalgic chills, so I'd say that's definitely a good start so far.

On an 'I'm probably in trouble' note, I just realized I forgot to set up the printer we just got. Oops.

Also, wish I could stop biting my lips- this bad stress-habit of mine really is detrimental, honestly.

by LongHairedAelita Sun Apr 12, 2015 1:24 pm

I just woke up not too long ago. Ugh. Working double shifts is really taking a toll on me.

On another note, I'm listening to the audio of Britney Spears' Femme Fatale tour. The version of Toxic in this tour sounds like she got her inspiration of Code Lyoko... Not to mention the dance routine in her concert looks very much like Yumi and Ulrich on Lyoko. It's scary.

And for a more clearer version of just the audio:

So someone told me that they redid the mulch just before caterpillar season was supposed to start, which is why they haven't been showing up on campus (but were all over downtown just two weeks ago).

Makes me kind of happy lol

Drpdrp: I've been known to make midis too. Smile

I once wrote and recorded a short arrangement of the Code Lyoko title sequence for Bb clarinet quartet. It's not a very good recording since I was doing it on my old laptop with a crappy mike and my good clarinet was off being fixed so I was using my old one.

I know, you posted several on CL-E (which just made me go back through the old Music of Code Lyoko thread, good times...).

Additionally, it turns out there are actually three separate guitars playing in the theme at the very least.

So I'm watching Courage the Cowardly Dog and I'm crying my eyes out.
I'm on the episode where he remembers his parents back when he was a pup and they were taken away, and little Courage is crying and hiding in a trash can. Ugghhhh Crying or Very sad

Yes, I'm a very sensitive person when it comes to crap like this. lol.

No that's horrible- they killed them all. That is /not/ okay.

OMYGOD THE FEELS ARE EVERYWHERE.

by Stella Luce 333 Tue Apr 14, 2015 8:54 am

In other news, apparently there’s a place called Xana’s Pizza somewhere in South Africa…

by LongHairedAelita Tue Apr 14, 2015 11:15 pm

Lol @Stella.

Believe it or not, there is a city here in NC called Carthage. It's not too far from where I live. lol.

by drpdrp97 Wed Apr 15, 2015 4:59 pm

There's a place in Louisiana called a forest.

XD

by LongHairedAelita Thu Apr 16, 2015 1:38 pm

Guys... I'm scared... Can I talk to y'all about something?

by drpdrp97 Thu Apr 16, 2015 1:42 pm

You can expect full confidentiality and respect from me.

by LongHairedAelita Thu Apr 16, 2015 1:48 pm

Yeah.. and I know there are some guys on here and I'm gonna censor this as much as needed as well because there are younger members on here.

But, I missed my time of the month last week.... and I keep getting these dull cramps right in the center of where my uterus would be.... I HAVE been active, but we've been using protection...

Also, my work sells Fish sandwiches. I was working in the back yesterday, and just looking at the fish made me feel nauseated... I've never had that happen to me before.

So, that's my problem..

by **Snickie** Thu Apr 16, 2015 9:47 pm

It could be nothing, it could be what you're afraid it is, it could be something inherently worse.

Go pee on a stick (pay for it in cash if you want to be really discreet). If it comes up positive, great, you know what's probably going on. See a doctor to confirm. If it comes up negative and your time of the month continues to not happen for another week or so and the other things persist or get worse, pee on another stick. If it's still negative, see a doctor. If it's positive, see a doctor.

My friend's mom had three kids. The first was planned. The second (my friend) happened despite the fact that she was using birth control. The third happened even though they were using a condom. After that he went and had himself sterilized. Protection isn't 100%.

*floats in for a semi annual attempt at being active again*

Sounds rough, Dani, I hope things blow over. Must feel like you can't just get a break. Sad

I've skipped months before without it being anything, so I hope it's just irregularity. I'd try what Snickie suggested.

Anyways, I am almost done with my first year away from college, so that's exciting!

by LongHairedAelita Fri Apr 17, 2015 11:33 pm

Thanks guys.

So you'll never guess what happened to me today. I cut my finger at work to where I had to get 4 stitches put in it. Ugh it's hurting so bad. I'm using one hand to type right now.
Also had to get a tetanus shot. ugh. I've been through hell and back today.

Also, I took a pregnancy test at the hospital. Gonna get the results in a few days.
