Genaro had the greatest idea today!
Get ready for it... -deep breath-
Traffic signals in the hallway!
.............
No, seriously, it's a good idea! Have you seen the halls at my school? No, you haven't! So you don't get to shoot down my ideas just like that! ...Okay, Genaro's idea, but I contributed!

Genaro: I hate these halls.
Courtney: Yeah, me too. They're so crowded! They, like, need to make them wider! (hand gestures)
Genaro: No, stop signs!
Courtney: Yeah! Totally! And lanes so people won't walk on the left side... I hate that. (starts babbling but shuts up immediently.) And speed limits. But that would only work if they gave tickets...
Genaro: They probably wouldn't listen to them if they didn't give tickets. Like, they could put a light on the top of their head when they do it.
Courtney: XDDD

Oh, wow. Just now I was looking out the kitchen window and I saw my dog, Kobe. Big black dog. In the distance my other dog, Mattie, ran by. I thought nothing of it. Then Kobe ran by, right behind Mattie. O_O I looked at the Kobe closest to me. Still there. And so was the one in the distance.
Turns out that the closer one was just some dog that ran away. It was so weird, though! XD I wanted to go check its tags, but I didn't really want to interact with a stray dog... Especially one of that size.

I love this....

Hyuuuu~~
I just took some photos around my house... Enjoy~!


Tamaki~



Ouran!! On my closet door. Does anyone else think that the twins look kind of demented here...?

Heheheh... My closet! A different one from the above photo. And a TV... Yay! It isn't hooked up to the cable, but I don't mind! I can only watch movies.

My mother calls this my "I Dream of Jeanie" bed.



...We still have our tree up... But in our defence, we put it up three days before Christmas!

Ugh... It's a wasteland out there...

I love this bag to death!

That's it for now!
Later I'll post last Saturday in photos.

Persocom are amoung us!

Seriously! Read this.
Okay, perhaps not persocom, but they are female robots! I wish they had persocom ears, though. That would be awesome.
(Okay, if you haven't seen Chobits, this is a persocom:)



Anyway, I think the actroids are really odd. The movement, mostly. And the voice of the one in this video...! It may be similar to Chobits, but it isn't anime! Use a regular voice!

Damn, I wish I could go back to the '90s.
I mean, the music sucked, but television was awesome! Turn on the TV today and you get shows like Total Drama Island, Don't Forget the Lyrics, and The Secret Life of the American Teenager. All shows that I find incredibly ridiculous. Now, I'm not saying that there aren't any good shows on now, there are, but the bad shows overpower the bad ones. Really, I only watch reruns of older shows.
Seriously, the shows I like are all from the '90s. That '70s Show, Seinfeld, The King of Queens (started in the mid-'90s and ended in the mid-2000s), Everyone Loves Raymond. Those are all sitcoms... I actually can't think of any good recent sitcoms.
The '90s cartoons, in my opinion, are so much better than the cartoons now, even larger than the '90s to 2000s sitcoms ratio. Now I can name a million (okay, there's a slight exaggeration there) cartoons being made now that I find to be repetitive, meaningless, and just plain stupid. The cartoons from the '90s (the ones I watched, at least) were original, something rare in animation today. >_< style="font-style: italic;">good was Invader Zim, and that ended five years ago! That show was simply amazing, though. In my opinion. But I'm not going to get into that right now...
I'm not saying that the good cartoons were just in the '90s, but that's when they ended. There were great cartoons all the way back until... Well, when they first came out! I've only seen a few episodes of the old black and white Mickey Mouse show, but that was really cool. Silent, I think?



Which brings me to another subject: kids these days know nothing! About the times before they were born, that is. A few weeks ago a classmate said something about a magic marker, and everyone else started cracking jokes about the markers being 'magic'... How can t
And then, today in History (same class as above) we're learning about the 'Roaring Twenties,' and some kids started talking about 'how the heck do you watch silent movies?!' I was just like O_O They've never seen a silent movie?! -aghast-
Okay, okay, sorry. I just needed to vent...

Welcome, Obama!
I didn't want him to win the election, but now that he's president, I'm not going to waste time insulting him. His speech gave me some confidence in him. He's a really good public speaker... He had that entire thing memorized!
...Did anyone else dislike that poem?

It's just a little after 6 am... FRIDAY! W00t. This weekend is looking up! This evening will consist of dinner and Lord of the Rings: The Two Towsers (still have yet to finish it). Tomorrow I'm going into town with my mother, and after that we're going to this really, really cool museum. It's kind of a museum of our state's history, I think, but it's so cool.

I want to see this, but it's rated R. (u_u)
