He... Helium.

That's odd, our tests indicate that you did not just take this test. In fact, we're not even sure you exist. Oh, wait, no, somebody just found indirect evidence of you in the deep Earth and in the Sun. Okay, so you're real, but man, you need to get out more. Actually, you're pretty cool, always doing your own thing, but we kinda wish that you would interact with us a bit more. On a positive note, I think some research lab in Berkeley has managed to put you into a psuedo-stable relationship that, if you're kept very cold, you won't walk away from... or maybe that was Xenon. I forget.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 2% on Mass
You scored higher than 15% on Electroneg
You scored higher than 0% on Metal
You scored higher than 0% on Radioactivity

I got bored yesterday, so I decided to write a story. Not only did I decide to do so, but I finished it!!!

Ah, the wonders of Naruto. So many possibilities...

Now to go attempt to do something that is actually productive...

To be blunt right from the beginning, this post is for only those of you who happen to be Naruto fans. And of those of you fans, for those who prefer the romantic paring of Rock Lee and Haruno Sakura, Otherwise, just ignore this post, 'cause you have nothing to do with it and this will be too short for one of those cut thingies.

Basically, in my wanderings, I have happened upon a message board for supporters of LeeXSakura romance. I'm usually not one for joining stuff like this, but I'm kinda glad I did. If you are at all interested in seeing what the hell I am takling about, stop by at http://www.phpbbplanet.com/therevolution/index.php?mforum=therevolution and see the start of the revolution!!!

Okay, there's my shameless plug for the month...

BTW- just in case you can't read my default icon, it's Shikamaru saying "Whatever." Dunno if anyone really cared, but there you go.

I must be off now. MAY THE POWER OF YOUTH BE WITH YOU ALWAYS!!! YOSH!!!

Just for those who might care: I LIVE! Expect me to start updating my LJ again real soon. I've had much crap to deal with since my last post, and a lot to say. I just don't have the time right now. But soon I will again...

So, until we meet next... C'ya!!! ;P

Happy Mardi Gras, yo! Let’s Par-tay!!! I’m gonna spend the evening watching the second DVD of Fruits Basket! Woohoo! *Does a Café Latte Grande induced happy dance*

All the festive merriment aside, If today is Shrove Tuesday (AKA Fat Tuesday or Mardi Gras,) that means tomorrow is Ash Wednesday. And that makes it the unofficial anniversary of me being diagnosed with Clinical Depression. Wow. Two years already?

After reflecting on this for a while, not to mention realizing that Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans 6 months ago Sunday, I have realized how pretty lucky I am, I guess. It has been a pretty rough two years for me and my family. Between College and family issues and generally evil shit that has decided to rear its ugly head, it’s been pretty “troublesome,” as a certain genius shadow-nin often would say. *Cough* But I’m still here and kicking, thank God. And thank you all who have been there to support me through all this. Dani, Carrie, Tiffany, even though we never see each other any more, you still mean so such to me, and I hope we can remain connected for years to come.

True, I’ve had my ups and downs all the way. I almost didn’t get in to school because I was struggling to simply get my ass of the couch and writing out a few applications. I got into Westfield by the skin of my teeth. Then there were the psycho roommates, my (great) aunt’s Cancer of the mouth, the continuing lack of support and bull from my siblings, sickness… argh, so much hell.

But, now I am able to be away from the distractions at home for weeks at a time. I now have the best room mate EVER. My aunt’s cancer is in serious regression (in other words, she’s much better.) Lately, I have been hanging out with a new bunch of friends that make me feel wanted (sure, they’re the campus gamer geeks, but I don’t give a damn!!!) and, best of all, I am feeling the best I have in years, both physically and mentally. I have not been sick since the beginning of the fall semester! That’s an effin’ record for me!!!

All and all, I am at a good place in my life right now. Okay, I am still single. But that’s really the only downside here. (hey, I’d seriously consider dating one or two of the gamer guys. I’m not sure if they realize I’m actually available yet…) I still have some ways to go, but it’s getting better all the time… *starts humming the song*

Hokay then. I think that’s enough of my ramblin’ for the moment. But I want to leave you with the lyrics to one of my favorite songs as of lately, just for the heck of it. Because I can. So there…

Don’t you feel it growin’ day by day,
people gettin’ ready for the news.
Some are happy, some are sad
Oh, we got to let the music play.

What the people need is a way to make ‘em smile,
it ain’t so hard to do if you know how.
Gotta get a message, get it on through,

Oh, now mama’s go ‘n’ to after ‘while.
Oh, oh, listen to the music,
oh, oh, listen to the music,
oh, oh listen to the music, all the time.

Well, I know you know better, everything I say,
meet me in the country for a day.
We’ll be happy and we’ll dance,
Oh, we're gonna dance our blues away.

And if I’m feelin’ good to you
and you’re feelin’ good to me
there ain’t nothin’ we can't do or say.
Feelin’ good, feeling fine, Oh, baby, let the music play.

Oh, oh, listen to the music,
oh, oh, listen to the music,
oh, oh listen to the music, all the time.

Like a lazy flowing river surrounding castles in the sky.
And the crowd is growing bigger,
list’nin’ for the happy sounds and I got to let them fly.

Oh, oh, listen to the music,
oh, oh, listen to the music,
oh, oh listen to the music, all the time.

~“Listen to the Music” by The Doobie Brothers~

Well, that’s all for now. And don’t forget my Nindo (ninja way- just go with me here)- “Always look on the bright side of life!” ‘cause, I be damned. It worked for me… heh. Go figure…

Sayonara!!! *Waves, makes a few quick hand signs and disappears in a mini snow-cyclone. She has been watching way too much Naruto lately*

Hey guys, I know I haven't updated all too recently here- life's been kinda busy, and I just can't find the time to update this. Meh. Well, hopefully it will change in the near future. Besides, next Wenesday is Ash Wednesday- AKA my two-year anniversary of being on my happy pills. Expect some big rant then. There is much to say.

I'm too tired to write about much at the moment, but I will leave you with this cute little thingie I found (they are an ode to two characters from teh anime Naruto (the userpic for this post is Shikamaru- we kinda have alot in common. I'll explain soon for ya))

Yep. Chibi Shikamaru da green kitty and Chibi Ino da purple pig. I have been in a Ninja mood as of lately, especially when I did these...

*Yawn* Yep, that's it for me. Have a good one...

Hidi-ho, Skadi has returned. Finally. Heh. So much for that hymn thing. But stuff kept comming up over the holidays that prevented me from updating my livejournal. Oh well, Christmas is done with (I gots me a tranquility water fountian thingy! Sqeeee!) and I'm back to take on Semester 4 at good ol' Westfield State. Oh joy...

Speaking of winter, the Northeast sure doesn't feel like it right now- today it topped out at 50 degrees; not that I'm complaining, but I thought it was supposed to be... I dunno, COLD out??? I am getting a sinking feeling that February weather is gonna suck big time up here. Woot.

Also, I have a new roommate. Laura ditched me without notice... '___' Bah, oh well. I my new roomie's an Anime nut/gamer. So, we're both in heaven. She went home for the weekend, but she's supposed to come back Sunday bearing DVDs of Fruits Basket! ^_________^

I can't think of anything else of importance to tell, so I'll end here.

...

MOOOOOO!!!

*Skadi runs off, giggling madly...*

Comefort, Comfort Ye My People (Hymn thing day... 4?)

Fri, 16 Dec 2005 00:47:41 GMT

Y'ello, all- how's it gellin'?

...

*snicker*

...

Well then, at this time tomorrow I should be partying with a bunch of old people from my church; I'm soo looking forward to this!!!

...

The stress of tomorrow's voice jury must be getting to me. Damn German words- I seriously just have to sit down and say the 'poems' over and over again, until I don't have to look at my cheat sheet. I think it's a matter of confidence on my part here. I know the tunes and the English one by heart, it's just the German text that I can't remember where to place. Somebody pray for me; or at least light a candle...

So, today's hymn is one of those gigue-like Advent hymns I like so much. I'm taking the text strait from the hymnal, 'cause the page with the hynms doesn't have it. So, here's me typing this out when I should be practicing, yet I'm still further procrastinating... heh...

Comfort, Comfort Ye My People

Comfort, comfort ye my people,
speak ye peace, thus saith our God;
comfort those who sit in darkness
mourning 'neath their sorrow's load.
Speak ye to Jerusalem
of the peace that waits for them;
tell her that her sins I cover,
and her warfare now is over.

Hark, the voice of one that crieth
in the desert far and near;
calling us to new repentance
since the kingdom now is here.
Oh, that warning cry obey!
Now prepare for God away;
let the valleys rise to meet him
and the hills bow down to greet him.

Mark ye strait what long was crooked,
make the rougher places plain;
let your hearts be true and humble,
as befits his holy reign.
For the glory of the Lord
now o'er earth is shed abroad;
and all flesh shall seek the token
that the word is never broken.

Music: Psalm 42, melody Claude Goudimel (16th C.)
Words: Johann G. Olearius (17th C.); Translation Catherine Winkworth (19th C.)

Yep. I have more to talk about in relation to the text. But I think I must go give in to my German blood, despite that said blood probably can be traced further back to Jewish Poland. Heh. Maybe that's why I'm having so many problems with it...

Until then, have a good one!!! *Grabs music and marches slowly off to her doom*

In the Bleak Midwinter (Hymn thing day 3)

Thu, 15 Dec 2005 00:12:54 GMT

Hey, how's it goin'? I wish I could say I was doin' good, but my stomach is kicking me at the moment, and I feel more drained than I usually do. Something tells me it's ETB (Early To Bed) pour moi tonight. Ah well, the extra sleep won't hurt. I just gotta remember Hakuna Matata at moments like this- hey, by this time Friday, I'll be done my voice jury and I'm done finals on Tuesday afternoon; I previously thought that I was stuck here until Thursday. But the prof. informed us yesterday that the grade was accumulative from tests, labs and attendence. There is no actual final. (This also means I aced the class. Boo yeah!!!)

Heh. Well, today's hymn is an old favorite with the tune by Gustav Holst (composer of "Jupiter, Bringer of Jolity"/The Planets- a favorite composer of mine.) Taking into account the weather and my current mood as of late, I feel that it is rather suiting. So, without much further ado:

In the Bleak Midwinter

In the bleak midwinter,
frosty wind made moan,
earth stood hard as iron,
water like a stone;
Snow had fallen, snow on snow,
snow on snow on snow,
in the bleak midwinter,
long ago.

Our God, heaven cannot hold him,
nor earth sustain;
heaven and earth shall flee away
when he comes to reign;
In the bleak midwinter
a stable place sufficed
Lord God incarnate,
Jesus Christ.

Angels and archangels
may have gathered there,
cherubim and seraphim
thronged the air;
But his mother only,
in her maiden bliss,
worshiped the beloved
with a kiss.

What can I give him,
poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd,
I would bring a lamb.
If I were a wise man,
I would do my part;
yet what can I give him-
give my heart.

Music: Cranham Gustav Holst (19th C)
Words: Christina Rossetti (19th C)

Now the Green Blade Riseth (Hymn Thing day 2 part 2)

Tue, 13 Dec 2005 18:39:59 GMT

And now for 'da other one, 'cause I don't feel like making one big-ass uber post. Meh, I'm just wasting precious time here, that's all...

Now the Green Blade Riseth

Now the green blade riseth
from the buried grain,
wheat that in dark earth
many days has lain;
love lives again,
that with the dead has been:
Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.

In the grave they laid him,
Love whom hate had slain,
thinking that never
he would wake again,
laid in the earth
like grain that sleeps unseen:
Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.

Forth he came at Easter,
like the risen grain,
he that for three days
in the grave had lain,
quick from the dead
the risen Christ is seen:
Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.

When our hearts are wintry,
grieving, or in pain,
Thy touch can call us
back to life again,
fields of our hearts
that dead and bare have been:
Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.

Words: John Macleod Campbell Crum (20thC)
Music: Noel nouvelet, medieval French carol

Songs of Thankfulness and Praise (Hymn Thing day 2 Part 1)

Tue, 13 Dec 2005 18:28:43 GMT

Hokay. 'Tis the second day of my Christmas song... thingy. And today I can't make up my mind between two of them. So, I'll give you both of the hymns (in two seperate posts,) for good measure. ^_^ The second one isn't technically a Christmas hymn wordwise (It's an Easter hymn, but the tune is a french carol. Go figure.) But I played it in my Piano final this morning, so it's in my head. As for the first one- well, the words rawk, and the tune (I'm gonna give links for the tunes in MIDI after each) is a Bach arrangement. And it's pretty! Woohoo! Heh.

Songs of Thankfulness and Praise

Songs of thankfulness and praise,
Jesus, Lord, to Thee we raise,
Manifested by the star
To the sages from afar;
Branch of royal David's stem
In Thy birth at Bethlehem;
Anthems be to Thee addressed,
God in man made manifest.

Manifest at Jordan's stream,
Prophet, Priest, and King supreme;
And at Cana, wedding guest,
In Thy Godhead manifest;
Manifest in power divine,
Changing water into wine;
Anthems be to Thee addressed,
God in man made manifest.

Manifest in making whole
Palsied limbs and fainting soul;
Manifest in valiant fight,
Quelling all the devil's might;
Manifest in gracious will,
Ever bringing good from ill;
Anthems be to Thee addressed,
God in man made manifest.

Sun and moon shall darkened be,
Stars shall fall, the heavens shall flee,
Christ will then like lightning shine,
All will see His glorious sign:
All will then the trumpet hear;
All will see the Judge appear;
Thou by all wilt be confessed,
God in man made manifest.

Grant us grace to see Thee, Lord,
Mirrored in Thy holy Word;
May we imitate Thee now,
And be pure, as pure art Thou;
That we like to Thee may be
At Thy great Epiphany;
And may praise Thee, ever blest,
God in man made manifest.

Songs From the Woods...

Mon, 12 Dec 2005 17:53:39 GMT

Being the musician that I am, and taking into consideration of how many Christmas/Holiday-themed songs exist, I felt like doing something to share a few of my favorites with you all. I can't help it; there are so many good ones out there. Therefore, I'm gonna try to post the lyrics to one of them once a day until the holiday season is over (for me, at least.)

The first one comes from Jethro Tull and it's wicked-effin'-awsome Christmas album. Go and buy it. Now! I swear, you won't be dissapointed... *cough* Anyhoo, enough plugging...

Another Christmas Song

Hope everybody’s ringing on their own bell, this fine morning.
Hope everyone’s connected to that long distance phone.
Old man, he’s a mountain.
Old man, he’s an island.
Old man, he’s awaking – says,
“ I’m going to call, call all my children home.”
Hope everybody’s dancing to their own drum this fine morning –
the beat of distant Africa or a Polish factory town.
Old man, he’s calling for his supper.
He’s calling for his whisky.
Calling for his sons and daughters, yeah –
calling, calling all his children round.

Sharp ears are tuned in to the drones and chanters warming.
Mist blowing round some headland, somewhere in your memory.
Everyone is from somewhere –
even if you’ve never been there.
So take a minute to remember the part of you
that might be the old man calling me.

How many wars you fighting out there, this winter’s morning?
Maybe it’s always time for another Christmas song.
Old man he’s asleep now.
Got appointments to keep now.
Dreaming of his sons and daughters and proving,
proving that the blood is strong.

Tomorrow, I think I'll pull out one of my favorite hymns for ya. Not sure which one, but one of em. Dunno...

BTW- I'm changing around icons. Just feel like doing something different here. Whatever...

BAI-BAI-BUU!!! *Skips off merrily, to play in the snow. That or take a nap. Dunno...*

Can't Get You Outta My Head

Tue, 29 Nov 2005 17:41:45 GMT

I can't figure out if today is a good day or not-

Bad Stuff:
*The nasty migraine I have that just won't go away
*I'm hoping said migraine doesn't mean I'm catching the WSC community sickness- some form of nasty head cold/sinus thang
*My ID fell off of my keychain and I am currently unable to locate it
*I am unable to replace the ID due to the fact that I left my wallet at home (this I know for sure)
*Therefore, I am living off of the foodstuffs in my dorm room

Good Stuff:
*I haven't had a migraine like this in a while- they're becomming more spread out
*Nor have I been sick since the semester started. That has to be a record for me
*If the ID cannot be found, I can get a new one- that means I can get a new picture for it. Sweet Jesus, thank you (worst ID picture EVER- seriously. Those who have seen it know what I mean) O.o
*I ran into Travis for the second time this semester!!! Yes, the second time ^_^; but it was a happy meeting. That made me feel better. We'll be talking later...
*I turn 21 in 11 months. Pathetic to be keeping track, I know. But I needed to be five for five on my lists...

Overall, I say 60 percent good, 30 percent bad, 10 percent margin of error. Woot...

BTW- Happy belated 20th to Dani!!! Buh-bye teendom!!!

Now I think I might go lay down again for a while. That or nuke up a bowl of Spagetti-O's. Or Chicken soup...

TTFN, ta ta for now! *Woosh! And Skadi is off to do something- hell knows what that may or may not be...*

5. Don't search around and look for the 'coolest' book you can find. Do what's actually next to you.

have a soul of a Cat inside you, which reflects
a sensitive and independant behavior.

Strengths: Normal routines are common in this
lifestyle as the Feline doesn't enjoy being
brought upon something new because of this calm
nature. The Feline is never really seen with
many friends because of the indepenence it
takes. A high awareness, overly observant, is
also common. Some may call you an outcast at
times, but you always seem to fit in wherever
you are needed.

Flip Side: The past is like the present for you.
The memories of long ago, good and bad, haunt
your mind, and regret is always on the fringes
of your thoughts. You can be very sensitive and
shy when it comes to certain topics, and even
around people.

Congratulations! You have a Cat inside!

Now, back to reality here...

Life's been pretty much the same around here. Not much to tell. I turned 20. Heh, it was a pretty cool birthday, I guess. My family got me the new Franz Ferdinand and Mediaeval Baebes CDs. They rock, baybee. FF suddenly seem to be channeling the spirits of The Beatles, 'cause that's what they remind me of all of a sudden- just reincarnated into the second British Invasion, as seems to be one of the latest fads in popular music. And I think my roomate is starting to learn the words to the MB CD, considering how much I've been playing it. My favorite track is Come My Sweet. I've actually danced around the room to it. I can't describe the feeling that the song gives me, but it's almost feels like it belongs at some Celtic tribal meeting, or maybe at a Pagan festival or something. Go buy the CD just for that song. Hell, go poke around www.mediaevalbaebes.com - an audio clip has to be on the site somewhere. *Loves them so...*

And the Convention was pretty cool too. I didn't end up in tears by the end of this one! I think my favorite part was car-dodgeing while rushing back to the hotel from the Cathedral. Imagine three 50+ aged people and a 20 year old with really long hair bobbing and weaving across busy downtown roadways, trying to beat the school bus (which happened to be driven by one of my older cousins) containing a large chunk of the clergy from the diocese just because the quartet figured that it would be much quicker to speed walk the five blocks back to the hotel; the group happened to arrive just as the clergy bus was starting to unload. Yeah, we were the first lay-delegates back to the hotel. Woot. The food was amazing too, and the view of the Springfield City Hall clock tower from outside my room window was amazing (we were on the 10th floor.)

So, life goes on. I actually registered for my classes for next spring earlier today, when I am supposed to. So, that's all taken care of. Including the classes I am taking right now (and not for next spring,) I am at about 50 credits. Heh. That's five more than the average ammount. Then again, I'm supposed to be taking courses that give me a total of 17-18 credits per semester, as apposed to the average of 15.

I think I better go brush my hair. Tonight's the Opera Workshop performance (7:30 in Bates 117/Manzer.) I'll talk about it again later.

Until another time, this is Skadi, saying 'C'ya later, baebe. Have a good one!!! ;P

*Grabs hairbrush and skips off into the sunset, not knowing what tomorrow may bring*

Oh my fucking God. I'm 20 now. It seems like yesterday I just entered preschool. I'm talking on AIM with my mom at the moment, and she's feeling the same way.

Well, bye-bye teendom...

Heh, so that's what it's like...

*Wooshes of to bed, singing happy birthday to herself...*

Leaves are fallin' all around; the autumn moon lights my way...
