Happy June!
How's life been going? Mine's been going okay, I suppose. There's no ice cream in my house and I really want some, but other than that life's pretty good.
Look, the Tower's back today! Go get your refreshments; I'll just wait here. I'm quite full from my refrigerator-raid snack I had prior to typing this.
There's seven more days of school (ignore our little "days left until the last day of school" counter; that thing counts the weekends too)! Woot! But, see, the only problem with the second-last week of school is that for my school, it's finals week. I mean, really, couldn't the administration make, say, the last two weeks of May finals week? Why now, at the end of the school year, when we should be enjoying ourselves? *Sigh* My school is weird.
Today is the first day of June! Ah, wonderful June! Virgil's birthday is in June; did you know that? Momo and House are going to camp (German and Chinese camp, respectively) in June as well. The 6CLF two-month anniversary will be in June, though we probably won't do anything terribly special for it. Two months isn't really much of a landmark for anything (like, baby clothes are marked "newborn," then "three months," then "six months," and so on; there's never, say, a shirt marked "two months" or "eight months." I guess the clothes companies just really like multiples of three...).
Because I have no life Because I have a death wish Because I feel that I need some new experiences, I have decided to start reading "My Immortal." For those who don't know, My Immortal is a ridiculously bad (it's not called "the worst piece of fanfiction [ever published]" for nothing) fanfiction that is only very loosely based on the Harry Potter universe (sorry, Virgil. I'm not dissing HP, of course. I'm just stating facts). It's about this blatant Mary Sue called "Ebony [sometimes spelled 'Enoby'] Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way" (no, I am not lying; I shall swear that to whichever deity you want me to swear to. It's the truth, honestly!). The entire fanfiction is just basically about Ebony/Enoby whinging about her "specialness," describing her horrible (and supposedly "gothic") clothing in excruciating detail, and having sex with any of the male gender that has the extreme misfortune of passing by her. It's so bad that it got deleted from fanfiction.net, but a lot of websites have reposted it because it's just so tragically funny. Typos are everywhere, and some are quite hilarious. Plus, apparently the original author (Tara something-or-other) co-authored about the first third of the fanfic with her friend, but then they got into some weird fight and so the friend got kicked out and the spelling got even worse. That part was funny. I can feel my brain cells dying from the experience. But then, where else can you get such gems as "Voldemprt's lair," "the only way to kill a vampire is with...a steak," and "Allah Kedavra!"?
Though, on a side note, I found this other HP fanfiction called "The Marauders Read My Immortal," and it's made reading the actual My Immortal so much easier. It doubles the laughs.
If any of you readers (and/or curly fries) feel like subjecting yourself to this menace (but it is funny, I have to say), just Google "my immortal fanfic." The first website that pops up has the entire thing.
If I die from this, I bequeath Archie to Virgil, because she asked me nicely.
Bye, all.

I just started reading My Immortal despite your warnings. It was excruciatingly painful to read. I think I would much rather not imagine Malfoy with make-up on...I also don't think it was terribly necessary for the author to write in such detail every piece of clothing that Enoby/Ebony is wearing.
ReplyDeleteHeyyy, first June post ^_^ I liked it a lot. (Yeah, I'm not sure how we're going to be judging if a time-mark "matters" or not... we'll figure it out as we go along, I suppose. Like, if x-months feels monumental enough, or something ^_^)
ReplyDeleteAww, that's sweet, bequeathing Archie to Virgil. (She'll forever be in your debt, I'm sure.)
