Oh what to do a night before an exam when you're suppose to be studying... I KNOW! Regain lost friendships, drink Freshly Squeezed, get asked by random losers in cars if you're high on life, bitch about men, and write entries on livejournal. I really wish I could just fail this thing tomorrow and take it again next year, it's been a complete waste of time and effort. Tip for later - never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever take summer courses that take more than 6 weeks. BAAAAAAAAAAHSDUHAIOUSIUAHSIUGFHSDKGJHFGLKJHAJGH.

Tootloo.

Why so serious...

Got an exam coming this week and I'm 6 chapters behind. Just got surgery done and now my entire bottom lip has stitches holding it together to my jaw. Talking? Not in the agenda. Second grandma came from Ukraine and I have absolutely nothing to talk to her about except ask her what the hell she's saying (apparently Ukrainian isn't as simple as I thought it was). Brother's birthday is coming up and the fucker is getting a Wii. Oh and my face is swollen like a chipmunk, adding to my retarded-sounding voice and creating a picture of worse than any jaw-ripping, tongue-hanging horror movie you've seen.

God I really want to see The Time Traveler's Wife.

Wake up and smell the Vicodin

Ever wonder what life would be like if everyone had what they wanted. No fine lines between right and wrong, no need for morals, no need for sympathy. Simple, raw, and pure selfishness.



Katy Perry
I'm still breathing


I leave the gas on
Walk the allies in the dark
Sleep with candles burning
I leave the door unlocked
I'm weaving a rope and
Running all the red lights
Did I get your attention
Cause I'm sending all the signs
That the clocking is ticking
And I'll be giving my two weeks
Pick your favorite shade of black
You'd best prepare a speech
Say something funny
Say something sweet
But don't say that you loved me

Cause I'm still breathing
Though we've been dead for awhile
This sickness has no cure
We're goingdown for sure
Already lost a grip
On this abandoned ship

Maybe I was too pale
Maybe I was too fat
Maybe you had better
Better luck in the sack
No formal education
And I swore way too much
But I swear you didn't fucking care
Cause we were in love

So as I write this letter
And shed my last tear
It's all for the better
That we end this year
Let's close this chapter say one last prayer
But don't say that you loved me

Cause I'm still breathing
Though we've been dead for awhile
This sickness has no cure
We're going down for sure
Already been diagnosed
So let's give up the ghost

Cause I'm still breathing
Though we've been dead for awhile
This sickness has no cure
We're going down for sure
Already lost a grip on this abandoned ship

Oh I'm still breathing I'm still breathing

Picture this - 8 people, a dog, 2 cats, and a giant stroller all crowded together in the cramped space of my entrance hall. Here's what went down - the almost-2-year-old got out of the stroller which I magically managed to push through the door and started chasing the 2 cats yelling out 'TITTY' on top of his lungs; the dog then started chasing the kid right after nailing my mother in the jaw (dislocating it of course) who was holding her so she wouldn't chase the kid; the kid in turn starts running faster this time crying and screaming out 'MAAAAAAA'; the mother runs after the kid laughing like an idiot, the blond over-obsessively-in-love-with-the-dog other friend runs after the whole crowd trying to catch the love of her life so the dog would pay some attention to her; grandma is on the floor with the pain-stricken mother; father is casually leaning on the door completely ignoring the whole mess picking his teeth; oh and there's me grabbing the kid, kicking the dog, getting the mother up and watching a whole new mess of yelling unfold between the family who can't decide who's more important - the dislocated jaw or the insane dog. Oh and all of this took about 30 seconds to go down. Don't worry though, the family settled on the fact that my father loves the dog much more than my mom; that my mom hates my dad much more than she hates the dog; that my grandmother misses having an infant run around the house; and that the kid wants to take a dive in the enormous fish tank full of poisonous fish.
And that's only a wednesday night.
Next weekend, my family is going camping... with 20 other people. So take the above and multiply  by 100. I'm really not that excited to be a part of this. So keeping fingures crossed hopefully I won't have to go.
Been watching too much House lately, I think I'm in love with the man and his damn cane.
That's all for now.

PS. I fought the law and the law won


Went to visit an old friend today in the city that I used to live in. Overall I have known her longer than I've known anyone outside of my family seeing as I have moved around 3 counties and multiple homes. Five years later and she's with a child living an hour's drive away. As she was driving me to the bus station the conversation led to me yapping on about how me and her used to spend every waking moment with each other and now we're forced to meet once every two months. The only thing she responded with was: "Things change."
And things do change. Time flies so quickly we don't even notice it and things which used to be so familiar and favored are no longer of any value. It's a sad realization and one which many avoid no matter the cost. You try and hold onto a fragment of a memory for too long and start to forget about what is important to you right now. I'm one to surround myself in memories - at home, at work, in friends...

Sometimes it's time to let go.

The town of Reasoningville

  • Jun. 10th, 2009 at 11:31 AM

Alright so I'm suppose to be writing a 10 page essay right about now but I got a bit distracted.... well a lot actually. I'm only on page 5 and the damn thing is due tomorrow. Plus to make this extra fun I have work today 3-11pm doing supervisory shit and yelling at people.
So this fun essay is for my psychology class which I expected to actually be fun seeing as I took psych through grades 11 and 12 and I loved it. When I walked in the first day I automatically regretted the decision to take this damn course. I guess when I was signing up I didn't see the "cognitive" in front of the psychology in the name of the course.. needless to say, it's boring as shit and now I'm writing a paper about deductive reasoning, hypothesis testing, evaluating arguments, and my favorite - probabilities (how the hell did they stick that into psychology I have no idea but I didn't even care to ask). So in order to actually enjoy doing this damn thing I came up with a story to connect all these boring questions; the story is about a town called Reasoningville and a bunch of convicts and murderers =D fun? I thought so, seeing as I was able to already finish 5 pages without snoozing off or going on facebook ever 2 seconds (I'm not an essay person).
So I decided to actually post this thing when I'm done with it, which should be by tonight seeing as it's due at 9am =]
for now.... Mike I hope you're not reading this =D Because................... Mike is a big giant octopus who just got out of sea jail to cause chaos and destruction on the world - he will eat your babies!! HIDE!!
Alright I'm done, chao.

Saw the best movie in a long time yesterday (Up) with a shitload of kids and a materialistic over-obsessive friend =D needless to say, it was FUN. The 3-year-old kept yelling out "Momma", the 7-year-old kept throwing Skittles at the audience, the 10-year-old kept running up and down the isles to see his friends from school, AAAAAND the friend kept getting annoyed and yelling at me that I'm enjoying the movie more than the kids (she was right).

STOP SHOWING MIKE MY POSTS DAMMIT!!

So long sweet summer

  • May. 28th, 2009 at 10:31 AM

Summer school.
Why do people take it?
Because they either failed and are catching up or as stupid as I am and thought they would fill their time with it and enjoy it...
WRONG!
Welcome to the life of 2 hours of sleep a night and endless tests one after the other worth a quarter of your whole mark each =D
Exciting? Not so much.
Never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever take accelerated courses. Believe me, you will rather want to go to work every day of the week than have to read 5 chapters a week in each of the 3 courses you're taking >.>

Mmmmmm, iced coffee ......



PS. It's raining mad cows outside, it's cold, my iPod is dead, my umbrella bent in half and hit me in the face, and I was late for my class thus missing half of the lecture slides which the teacher conveniently decides not to put up on blackboard. Ladies and gentlemen, it's been a great day so far.

All we are - OneRepublic

I tried to paint you a picture, the colors were all wrong
Black and white didn't fit you and all along
You were shaded with patience, your strokes of everything
That I need just to make it and I can see that

Lord knows I've failed you, time and again
But you and me are all right

We won't say our goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
A lover's alibi

I walked a minute in your shoes, they never would've fit
I figured there's nothing to lose, I need to get
Some perspective on these words before I write them down
You're an island and my ship has run aground

Lord knows I'll fail you, time and again
But you and me, we're alright

We won't say our goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
A lover's alibi

Every single day that I can breathe
You changed my philosophy
I'm never gonna let you pass me by

So don't say your goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change

So don't say your goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
A lover's alibi

So don't say our goodbyes
You know it's better
We won't break, we won't die

Winter break

  • Dec. 17th, 2008 at 11:50 AM

So exams are finally over and I sort of feel worse than when I started. Throughout the semester I ended up dropping a course, forgetting to take one, failing 2 exams and only passing one. I have a huge feeling that I will be in school throughout the spring and summer trying to recover all of those failed courses... yay. My visa card will be very happy about that seeing as each course is $500....
Alright so enough ranting about school, school is good.
I've been getting some ideas for icons lately seeing as I have all this time on my hands. They will most likely include Vampire Knight (most current obsession), 30 seconds to mars, fall out boy (or something along those lines), and Cecelia Ahern's work which is also a deep obsession of mine. Other than that, hopefully it'll go well and I'll be able to conjure up something exciting =] for now, chao.

facebook

Oh the addictions of Facebook are disturbing... I figured out that I spend more time checking Facebook than I check LiveJournal so I will post the link to my Facebook here so that anyone can add.

... although posting a link wouldn't do much seeing as my profile is not public so just search out my e-mail: auburn_aw3_@hotmail.com or search my name Katie Silkina... believe me it'll be the only one that comes up

new beginnings

  • Nov. 24th, 2008 at 6:46 PM

To start off, I'm not a new user of livejournal. I used to have an account (sakuraxscatter) which I decided not to continue seeing as it was last updated in march or april of 2007.
I recently started to miss this site quite a bit and decided to start over again. I'll write a few entries on what has happened ever since I left livejournal last time (which is enough to cover pages but I'll try and shorten it). It might not be very exciting but it has been quite eventful from my point of view. I'll try to re-add old friends but other than that, if I meet anyone new, beware, I tend to yell out random things at random times and have mood swings which could blow a roof off a building but generally I am a kind individual =] one of my best friends came up with a nickname for me - tofu heart; it's all scary on the outside but the soft kindness that comes through is genuine.
I also wanted to start making new icons which I haven't even attempted to make in years. Although seeing as I'm in midst of exam period, I don't know how much I will get done... though I do tend to get distracted very very easily so you might see posts at 2 in the morning of 50 icons that took me the whole night due to my inability to focus on balance sheets =]
My belief in this site is that as everyone posts their own individual entries, their personality starts to weave itself together in front of the reader's eyes; so I hope that people reading my entries will get to have that experience as well. I like to meet people in person but as sometimes that's impossible (seeings as there are hundreds of countries on our little planet), I don't mind communicating via livejournal =]
So that's it for my beginning blurb, hope you all didn't fall asleep after the second line =] Alright, lets get this thing going.
