Hi, I'm Emma and you may or may not remember me as a little, weird turnip who used to post a lot before falling off the face of the Earth. Well, I'm back. For a little bit, at least. Why, you might ask? Because my life has taken a turn for the worst and as usual, only MNFF and my online friends (ie. you) can help fix it. How? Just by being there and by distracting me from RL, which sucks.
So yes. That's pretty much it, except to say I MISSED YOU ALL TERRIBLY!!

So. I got in! I was accepted into the Business Management and Biology program also! I just got my offer of admission! *screams some more* I really didn't think it would all happen so fast. *happy!sigh*
My brain is really incapable of thinking about anything else, but hopefully it'll clear up in a bit.

Please feel free to completely ignore what I'm about to write, as it's really a way of venting my feelings--which are extremely bitter at the moment.
I would rather not go into details, but something happenned today that made me realize that a)no one is who they seem to be and b)people judge you in the worst of ways. I'm still angry at the mere thought of this. I mean, what right does this certain person in my class have to call me names? To label me? For you who know me--and everyone else who really knows me--I'm the quiet girl who seems a little bit separated from the world, the nice, naive girl with deep thoughts. And I was fine with this. I'd learned to deal with it. But then there were people who summarized that whole personality into "a pushover" or "just there". Truthfully these kind of thoughts about me were rare, but they were still there.
Then, one night, just one night I let loose and everybody's opinion on me changes. Funny thing is, all I did during this fateful party is dance and show a little more skin than I usually do. All of a sudden I'm a slut? Why must people be like this? Why is everyone so effing quick to judge? I mean it's either this or that--can't people see that we're not two-dimensional? That there might be more to us that what meets the eye? That the quiet, reserved girl can know how to have fun? That the person with the straight A's can know how to dance better than the rest? I'm so seriously pissed!
On one hand, I've learned--painfully learned I might say--to not care about what others have to say, on the other hand, this person really hurt me. No one had ever called me a slut before. Ever! And I really expected so much more from this guy. *dissapointed sigh*
I could go on for ages, but I'm talking to a friend on the phone and she's slowly making me feel better.

SInce the last time I wrote on here, my life's been a mess. Problem after problem has come up, from school, to my computer crashing, to fights with parents, to new and potentially dangerous crushes and so on and so forth. I finally found two seconds to pop back in here, mostly because my dad finally got High-Speed Internet.
So yes. Umm, there are so many things I have to say, a whole day wouldn't be enough to finish, so I just won't say anything. Suffice it to say, that I finished my first term with a 97% average, that all of my aplications to universities and colleges are finished and sent, and that my new crush is the annoying friend I've mentioned a couple of times before, and on whom my best friend also has a crush on.
Other than that, it's all good. I think...
I'll probably pop back in more often now--I'll try to manage it somehow.
Huggles and love,
Emma.

I've been also lookign at more Uni. applications and I'm having trouble deciding what I'd like to do in life. What do you guys see me as? Doctor, lawyer, architect, teacher, garbage-woman (lol)? I'm kinda confused.
I bought Back to Basics! Finaally. Actually, I think Stripped was better, but this is pretty good too. Hehe. Love the song, "Slow down baby".
So, I was rereading OotP. And no matter how many times I've read it, I'm still amazed by it. And this is not happening with HBP. All the different plot twists and little funny/cute/angering details tha we see in OotP either sem forced or they're just not there in HBP. At least, that's how I feel. I hope DH is better than HBP. It's actually really funny, but so far my favorite HP books are the "odd-numbered" ones: PS/SS, PoA and OotP. And I really haven't liked CoS, GoF and HBP. So I'm hoping Book 7 will be more like it's odd predecesors. Hehe.

So, firstly: HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERONE!
Now, I think I'll do that Year in Review thing.
Shortly, it goes something like this. I started it off on a bad note, feeling pessimistic and hating the year to come. It really wasn't as bad as I expected. During the year, I can proudly say that I matured and that I took better care of my responsibilities. And now at its end, I find that I am better prepared for the future and although I'm very scared at the prospect of facing life on my own, I think that I can handle it if I just buckle down and try my best. Of course, there were many, many times when I felt lost and alone, and I know those days aren't over, but at least this year has proved that I am not alone. I have my family, my friends, and you guys! *huggles* I have been dissapointed by many, many people this year, most of them unexpected. I have had people who were really close to me do something hurtful, and although it still hurts sometimes, I have the pleasure of knowing that I've made it through. Dissapointments in love were vast and I start of t2007 by trying to beathe, without guys, just me. By myself. I have loosened up a little, and that's a great thing and of course getting my braces off has helped quite a lot! I can't say it was a horrible year or a great one, but I have learned a lot, and that's what counts. Whew! It feels good getting all of that off my chest!
And now for those resolutions--that are hadly ever kept.
1. Get better marks. Get better marks.Get better marks.Get better marks. God knows, I need them.
2. Get into University! Aaaaahhhhh. I don't even wanna go too deep in that one.
3. Be more comfortable around people.
4. Be less trustful of other people. Yes. While once upon a time, I would have said, trust people more, I've been hurt way to many times now, and it's time I learn from it.
5.Be healthy. You know, exercise, eat healthy, etc.
6.LIVE LIFE! I've got to stop worrying so much about things. It's not healthy, is what it is.
There's probably more somewhere, and when I remember I shall edit.
So all my luverly friends, enjoy 2007 and may it bring peace and happiness to you all!
I just woke up, personally, and it's 11:13 am where I am. It's a beautiful day. *le sigh* Sunny, not too cold--alas, there is no snow. I still have not gotten used to Christmas without snow.
*huggles f-list*
EDIT for the sake of avoiding "double posts".
Happy Birthday Slian!
Hope you have a good one! It's so awsome to have both events on the same day. I'm guessing you celebrate Christmas, right?

Next. I just saw this article on Mugglenet that said that other titles registered for Book 7 were HP and the Heart of Ravenclaw and HP and the Deathly Veil. *clutches heart* *dies* I don't know what this means, but I'm sure I love either one of these titles more that Deathly Hallows. I don't even know whether they were considered, but *siiiigh*
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAURA!!
Hope you have a fun day, although from my experience, birthdays usually suck. We all love you, dear! *squishes*
I'll start with the good stuff. The ball itself was fun. They held it at this really nice hotel and the dancing floor was huge, which is what counts, after all. Then there was my dress, hair and make-up, which, if I may say so myself, turned out wonderfully. Everyone was saying how well I looked, which of course, please my ego immensly. lol. But yeah, I danced a lot, although the effing high heels were killing me and I didn't drink at all. I don't drink alcohol much. All in all, I had a good time. It's not every day you get to dress up and watch guys in tuxes. :P
But then it went wrong. My crush was obviously there, us being in the same school and all, and he was not alone. At first I thought she was just a friend, because he was so obviously staring at me, I didn't think any girl could have put up with it. And when I was dancing with a friend, and I mean really dancing, I thought he got a little annoyed because he left instantly. But nooo. I should have knowm really. No guy I ever set my eyes on is single. I should have gotten used to it by now, or learned somehow. Just as I was leaving, I saw her sitting on his lap and they were so obviously together. Honestly, it crushed me. My hopes were really high this time. I know I'll move on like I always do, but it makes me wonder. Why do these thigns happen to me? And always the same? *sigh*
I think I'll go sleep it off now. I hate how a seemingly great evening could turn out like this. I feel like I shouldn't trust guys anymore. I mean, he was leading me on--I'm not someone who usually misreads signs. Why would he do that when he has a girlfriend already?
*pokes f-list*
Love y'all.

Step 1: Put your iTunes or equivalent on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarassing. (Same with the skipping of the past songs that were instrumental only.)
Step 3: Bold the songs when someone guesses correctly.
(Looking it up on Google is CHEATING!)
Hehe, that was fun!
*goes to study fro chemistry and math test* Grrrrr....
I know Dawnie isn't around much any more, but we all miss her. So...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAWNIE !!!
Hope you have an awesome day that you'll always remember.
I haven't been around much and I miss all of you, and Mugglenet too, and everything in between. *le sigh* I've been trying to write my Christmas Challenge fic, but it's just not working, so I guess I'll just try another prompt. So umm yeahhh...
The rest of things are good, mainly. I haven't had any big fights with people lately and my marks are on the rise, as they say, slowly, but surely.
My crush has been ignoring me up until yesterday, while today he was staring more than usual.I guess it all depends on his mood. God damn him and his deep, intriguing eyes! I need to find a way to talk to him or I might lose my mind. Grrrrrr...
Today, I'm feeling good at least. Sort of content now that my sugar high is over and I'm all out of energy. I think I might have aced my Bio test, so that's good.
I think that's all I have to say for now. I would like to apologize for being such a lousy friend lately to you all, but life's so hard sometimes.
*squishes f-list*

It was sad actually. I was walking around school, being heaved by two of my friends and everyone was looking at me. I mean, it's not that weird. Gaaahhh... My mom picked me up and I haven't moved from the couch since--until now, of course. So yeaahhh...This really sucks.
But, there is a bright side! Well, first, I have to say I've moved on from my former crush and now I like this other guy. Shallow? Maybe, but I mean the guy was taken. It was best that I move on. So this other guy, who I'm going to call by initial "E", is not like Prince Charming, but the other type--tall, dark handsome. And his eyes! *clutches heart and dies* The light up so effing brightly! *sigh* I've noticed he's been eyeing me lately and that's how I came to notice him, actually. We don't talk or anything and I really, really want to find a way to approach him. It's what I hate about me--people always tell me I'm unapproachable. How is that even possible?
Skipping over that, today, when I was happily hopping on one foot, my friends helping to drag me alone, he was passing by and he stopped, looked me over and he seemed a little worried. And my friends were joking about how they were going to call him over and ask him to carry me home. I wish. So yeah, this is my sad little story of the day. I'll probably have to stay home for a while and I really don't want to. I like school now. *tries to dance and falls on the ground horribly* Oh, and I'm sure this one has a girlfriend too. It's hard to find cute, avalible guys, especially when you're a senior. All the stupid guys seem to fall for the younger girls. Grrrrr...
And I can't seem to get "Infatuation" out of mind--Christina Aguilera's song that is. Especially the part that goes, "skin the color of cinnamon, his eyes light up and I melt within". Honestly though, I love his eyes, so black and deep and they're really bright. And I love sparkly eyes. yes, I know, I need to get a grip.
Ooohhh, and I got 99% on my Philosphy test! I was so happy! I guess, hard work really does pay off.
*huggles f-list* Missed ya!

- How I feel:
lethargic - What I'm listening to:Infatuation
All that was missing was someone to share it with. Of course, I was with my family but it's not the same. And the whole time this song was stuck in my head--so confused, my heart's bruised, was I ever loved by you, out of reach, so far, I never had your heart...--because my dad was listening to it in the car. I don't even know who sings it. It's pretty though.
I'm so effing tired right now. But I don't have school tomorrow! Yey! Have to go shopping, though. And me and friends have these plans about eating out and all. I don't know how i'm going to fit all of that in my "agenda". *cough*
I'd also like to apologize for my lurkiness lately, and my non-posting-ness to comments. It's been crazy.

You are The Empress
Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.
The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents,
beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home
decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.
The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.

I feel horrible though. It might just be that time of the month, but still... Today before the philosphy test, I nearly had a breakdown. It wasn't helping that theat annoying guy "friend" of mine kept being such a pain in the ass. I swear, I have never been more mad at him!
And then there is of course this overnight trip that the seniors are taking and it's effing annoying because I can't go, because my stupid dad still thinks that I'm 12. Don't the words "teacher supervision" mean anything to him? So everyone is going, except me and I really, really , really wish I could go. I hate this. *tear* I mean, what is wrong with parents today. In, like, eight months time, I'm going to be living alone, and yet I can't even take a trip with my effing friends?
*punches pillow* Yes, I have a pillow next to my keyboard.
So I'm looking forward to five days (including saturday and sunday), of aloneness because everyone will be gone. Grrrrrrr...
At the very least, I can work on my Winter Tales' Challenge...
I want to goooooooooooooo...
