I was called Harry Potter by a stranger in the street yesterday. I was wearing my trenchcoat, specs, and the rain had flattened my hair... but still, that was cruel. Harry sucks. >_>

roserougesang · 11-14-2006, 04:24 PM

Some guy that goes to a school near me looks almost exactly like Harry Potter, from the glasses down to the hair that won't flatten (doesn't have a scar though). Everyone there calls him Harry.

Broken_Pixy · 11-14-2006, 04:41 PM

We had a guy in school that looked exactly like him, we used to call him Potter

nuh uh... Harry rules!

Draconysius · 11-14-2006, 05:41 PM

This is such a random post that it is absolutely about nothing. My mind's as blank as... Well, there you have it.

Broken_Pixy · 11-14-2006, 06:04 PM

I need to sleep....

And we have a guy in school that looks like Marilyn Manson. Guess what everyone calls him? Manson. Poor guy.
*shakes head and whipes a tear away*

Draconysius · 11-15-2006, 07:05 AM

^ Maybe he takes that as a compliment; who knows?

Don't Look Behind You · 11-15-2006, 10:53 AM

His psychological defence mechanism has better start taking it as a compliment soon for his own metal stability......so far he is just frantically searching for reasons to define Manson as good looking. I had to kill hs illusions that goths would be such people and advised him to seek out Manson fans or to dye his hair blonde. i wonder to which extreme he will have to go to first.

I was sat next to a random girl in my history class & she just suddenly said to me "Hey I was watching t.v over the weekend & I noticed something about you!"
I just sort of smiled nervously & asked what.

"Well I was watching that Evanescence music video & was all like omg that girl in my history class looks just like her!!" I sort of smiled & then she clutched my arm going "You do like her don't you? Have I just offended you?"

Well...I suppose it's better than "Omg you look just like that little goth freak from Coronation Street!!!"

Woohoo, I actually got some internet access.

Ahem... well... Actually I chose to meet AFI. Well not so much chose, as got chosen. And it was amazing, as they're all very sweet and very very funny. They also put on one bloody good show, and no one who's ever seen them live will dispute that (no matter how jaded they are by "what's goth and what's not").

For U2, it's just because I got free tickets, and some of their songs are alright. I won't see them until Sunday though.

Draconysius · 11-17-2006, 09:38 AM

Ugh. Their modern music just turns me off big time. I also used to like them before "Sing the Sorrow" came out and they changed completely. To me, it felt like they sold out.

By the way, Cicero, is your username taken from "Arms of Cicero" by Sex Gang Children or what?

She_Is_My_Sin · 11-18-2006, 03:54 PM

I had a really good idea what to do a minute ago, but now I've forgotten. Now I'm annoyed. Damn my intelligence of a goldfish.

*smacks head*

...

Hmm well that probably won't help...

BlackButterfly · 11-18-2006, 05:09 PM

Mmmm... at this moment, I could eat endless quantities of chocolate...

I hate being female sometimes.

Paper_Wings · 11-18-2006, 09:38 PM

Thinking of chocolate makes me want sushi. Chocolate sushi.

Damn it.

*sighs*

I'm not a fan of their latest music either, and I first got into them during the Art of Drowning period. But they're still AFI, they're the same band that wrote Black Sails in the Sunset, and I'm going to stick by them no matter what.

And... (this is the millionth time I've had to explain this to someone, haha) they didn't sell out. AFI worked so bloody hard to get where they are, and guess what... They're still staying in shitty hotels and playing in shitty venues. There is very little money and very little luxury involved in being in a minorly successful band. If anything, I'm grateful for what they've gained in these past few years, even if it means they get shown on MTV every now and then. It's meant they've toured where I've had a chance to see them, haha.

And yes, Arms of Cicero was my inspiration for the name

. The "Mrs Sexgang" title beneath it is also a clue to my love for the Sex Gang Children.

In other news, has anyone here seen Borat yet? It's cringingly hilarious. I loved it.

Godslayer Jillian · 11-19-2006, 01:12 PM

So, I'm preparing myself for the most boring week of all.
Sure, I got a Thanksgiving break, but most of my friends didn't; as so, I have five week days of having absolutely nothing to do.

BlackButterfly · 11-19-2006, 01:21 PM

Aww... that sucks, Jillian... I wish I could send you pie. (I have enough stuff to do about 15 at the moment... Pecan, anybody?)

I went through something like that the one year I was in a Christian private school (which I hated because of all the stuck-up rich kids, but I digress...): we got the whole week off, but everyone else left for home and I was stuck in the dorms all alone... did a lot of reading that week...

Neurosis · 11-19-2006, 01:30 PM

I know how Christian private school life is. My father had only enough to pay tuition for my sister and I. Unlike the other girls, they engaged themselves with American Girl dolls (each costing $84, not counting the accessories sold seperately), about two or more for each girl.

My sister and I were left out in doing so. They've once had a game, where, if you've lost, you were sported with a letter. If the letter had spelt out the word, then you were to be stood in front of the wall, while the other children threw tennis balls at our backs. A few threw basketballs. Our teachers did not help us. With the pain of the balls thrown at us, they've told us to suck it up and deal with it.

I am too glad to be out of that school.

WTF?!? what a heap of crap! Little kids are such idiots.
want me to go postal? i'll slash some tyres and fling some bricks! Revenge is a dish best served with Chips?

BlackButterfly · 11-19-2006, 10:09 PM

...and that was another "Angry Poetic Moment with PersephoneX"...

(sorry, I absolutely could NOT resist...)

LaBelleDameSansMerci · 11-20-2006, 12:29 AM

I went to public school. *exhudes knowledge of how to avoid getting stabbed/shot/beat up* Just kidding, nothing happened at my school. Not while I was there, anyway. Nothing good, nothing bad. *sigh*

BLARGH Why must I be nocturnal??

Solumina · 11-20-2006, 02:42 PM

so yeah I said that I would be around for a while and then I kind of didn't post for about a month, sorry about that, school just got a little crazy

Magpie_Tendencies · 11-20-2006, 03:34 PM

Well, welcome back again then

Well, it may sound like "crap" but it really did happen. I'm not going to go extensive in what they have done to my sister and I, but I will say that most have apologized, and a few are still good friends between us.

Private school was also home to outstanding rules. They had a handbook of their rules and on one page, listed actions of demerits (as in not pushing your chair in) and connected a Bible verse for that demerited action (who can find a legitimate Bible verse that explains pushing chairs in??).

Another faulty area of that private school was the credits attained from graduation were not eligible for most colleges. The only colleges that did accept those credits were other Christian colleges. One, Pensacola Christian College is notorious for their segregation by gender. A large and extensive campus, but segregated almost completly: seperate stairwells, elevators, cafeterias, classrooms, even sidewalks! If you do anything outside of the campus with a member of the opposite sex, you must have a certified PCC chaperone. Otherwise, it is forbidden. Contact is a major rule. No contact whatsoever, not even a handshake or a friendly hug. Eye contact is strictly forbidden, to have students not have "thoughts of undressing people".

And even then, the credits you earn from that school do not apply if you opt for a transfer. You are into the school two years, and expect to be a junior in another school. Because the credits you've worked hard to build up, they are not accredited to other universities, therefore, you must start anew: as a freshman in college.

It's not worth it at all.
