I have pretty stationery and will be buying stamps on Monday. Also, I am already looking for ways to procrastinate on my surprisingly blossoming NaNoWriMo work.
Who wants a letter?

I am drinking my first latte since forever ago. I've literally not had one since before I moved down here, August 24th.
Pumpkin spice <3

After the umpteenth AMA friending post, I guess I should make one of those introductory posts.
Hi, I'm Andrea. I'm eighteen years old. I live in an on-campus apartment at the University of Central Florida, in Orlando, where I am a nursing major and in the university's honors college. I'm single, angsty, and dramatic, and that's all fine with me. I am 5'4 and the first female in my family to break 5'. I also have the biggest female foot in my family.
I am a gigantic nerd. I am a bibliophile and read almost any spare moment I can get. I'll read most anything except for science fiction and non-fiction, just because I have never specifically asked for sci-fi recs. One of my favorite series is Harry Potter, like you couldn't tell. I also enjoy writing. After participating in NaNoWriMo the past three years and winning last year, I plan on winning again this year. I also knit. I love to knit for other people, but I have the shortest attention span ever with yarn, so you can feel free to ask me to make you something, just don't expect it for a while.
I love sweatshirts, Law and Order: SVU, and canned green beans. I am a crazy Red Sox fan and cried when they didn't win tonight. I love all baseball and will even admit to occasionally rooting for the Yankees, depending on the opponent, but there's just something special about Boston.
Regarding my posting style, it is seldom. I really don't have enough going on to post interestingly. I used to post a lot, as you will notice if you go back through twenty or so of my entries. I love numbering my posts but haven't done that in a while since my updates aren't actually long enough to necessitate such organization.
If you want to talk outside of LJ, please do! My contact info:
AIM: AntiGangstaHobo
Twitter: lucymalfoy
Gmail: xlucymalfoyx
Skype: lucymalfoy
Last but not least, I'm even going to share a ( highly-exclusive photo of me! ) I made that scarf.
Just ask if there's anything else you'd like to know!
P.S.
It has been brought to my attention that I have neglected to mention that I am "FUCKING AWESOME." Happy, Wendy? |

Dear Red Sox,
Don't ever let that happen again. I'll disown you. I mean it this time! No really, I will!
Love,
Andrea |

I have one of those locks for locking your laptop down to a desk leg or something, and I'm pretty sure I accidentally reset the code without realizing it. Fml.
Edit
After trying 561 numbers, I got it! I still can't figure out how to actually get the lock to stay in the laptop slot, which was how I ran into the problem in the first place... |

Finally finished moving into my apartment at UCF! I still have to get a couple of things, but we're going to Target tonight. Despite my last post, I only had a mini-meltdown when my parents finally left, so that was a pleasant surprise. Heh.
There are three other girls living in the apartment. I've only talked to one of them so far because the other two...don't come out of their rooms? Or one might have been out all day, I couldn't tell. I can't tell if they're shy or snobbish or busy or what. But it was also only the first day, so there's still time. As for the third one, I've met her and talked to her and her parents, and they're all pretty nice. She offered to go exploring and class-finding and book-picking-upping today, and her parents offered to make a grocery run for me before they go back home.
Oh, I also bought a digital camera the other day, and I took some photos during the moving.

I am exhausted after today. First I had to help out with a garage sale that started (meaning we had to be set up) at 7:00. Then we had lobsters for lunch. That was difficult for me because I got attached to my lobster. We got them yesterday at the Navy base commissary in Jacksonville, and I had to ride home with them in the backseat because the trunk was too full of groceries. The seafood department packed the lobsters in boxes similar to those used for Dunkin Donuts munchkins, two per box. We had six altogether. I had one of the boxes balanced in my lap and started talking to them, mostly as a joke with my mother. By the end of the ride home, they were named Marvin and Sean, and I actually felt bad for their fate. Then I had to deal with actually eating Marvin when my stepfather boiled them. I felt really bad about it, but I did learn that it is possible to mask the taste of guilt with enough butter.
Later, in need of a laugh, I called my friend Mike. I had just gotten into my room and was launching into my rant of the day with him when, in the corner of my eye, I saw something move. I looked down, expecting that maybe it was dust or something equally benign, but I was not to be so lucky. A fucking brown recluse skittered across the floor cushion I keep in front of my night stand. Coolly and with ample composure, I picked up the spider and released it outside. By which of course I mean I launched myself atop my bed and screamed bloody murder, mostly into the phone. And then I couldn't stop screaming, which freaked Mike out, as he told me he was wondering how he should call 911 if he didn't know my home address. Some part of the back of my mind kept nagging me that he was probably worried, so I tried to get out "There's a spider!" in between screams, but screaming like a girl doesn't make for very comprehensible communication.
Finally I managed to calm down enough to reassure Mike that I was not about to be beheaded by a home invader, contrary to his belief, and that it was "only" a spider. Do you know how he reacted? He laughed at me. As I was hyperventilating, he couldn't breathe because he was laughing too hard while trying to explain that the spider was probably more scared of me than I was of it. Boo fucking hoo. It is not wise to try to rationalize with a panic-stricken, spider-fearing me, as I oh-so-politely informed him. Meanwhile as I'm flailing atop my bed, there is still a spider on my floor, threatening to disappear behind my dresser or under my nightstand, which would not make for a good situation.
I grabbed a roll of toilet paper from the bathroom with the intent of wadding up the spider and flushing it. Turns out I couldn't go near it without bursting into tears. Then I came up with a brilliant idea: vacuum the spider! So I went and got the vacuum cleaner in all its heavy bulkiness and dragged it to my room, only to remember that we own a Kirby, which does not have an easy-to-attach hose. After several failed attempts to squash the spider with a shoe resulting in retreating because the spider dared to move, I tried one last time. Armed with a bottle of bleach (thank god for beige carpeting and the spider being on the edge of my room) and a heelish shoe, I attacked. Even after being coated in a layer of bleachy foam, the damn thing still crawled around until I finally smashed it with the shoe and kept smashing until it finally stopped moving, which was the happiest moment of my life. I couldn't help but enjoy a cackle after conquering such a ridiculously terrifying foe.
I gratefully thanked Mike for being my humiliating moral support and putting up with my screaming in his ear. He said he was happy to be of service in exchange for such entertaining late night entertainment. Ugh. After letting him go to bed, I bagged up the spider and disposed of his body. Just beginning to relax in my room again, I hear a tha-thunk. You know, that kind of sound where a bug has just entered the general vicinity of your existence in order to wreak havoc? Turns out it wasn't a bug. It was a frog. A rather large frog, too. And it's still in my room because it hopped under my bed. Wtf, nature, letting loose in my room tonight! I think I'm going to bed because as I said before, I'm completely exhausted. Too much damn adrenaline or something. Jeez, I hate Florida and it's stupid bugs. |

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 embarrassing
Step 3: Bold/Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!

Good news:
Congratulations! You have been offered admission to UCF for the Fall 2009 term.
Ayup. That's the University of Central Florida in Orlando, FL. It is my top choice after the University of Florida felt threatened by my ~*SUPERIOR INTELLECT*~. That's what I tell myself to help me sleep anyway ;) |
