Well I went to a different dentist at the demands of my mom because she was pissed that the other guy scared the crap out of me. This guy was a lot nicer and explained that although I may get nerve damage and my chances are higher than the normal 1-3%, the chance of it being permanent is slim (5% of the 1-3% don't get the feeling back). So the odds are better but he did say that there's a chance of complications. And he wants me to get all 4 pulled despite my mom's worries of TMJ because he said they never force the mouth open too far and he said I have quite the jaw stretching ability so I'll be fine. Wahoo for flexibility. Plus this guy is really hot so it always helps when the guy isn't creepy and old (lol).
Well the new date is the 17, which gives me 4 days (instead of the recommended 5) to recover before my photoshoot but I really should be fine and if I look THAT horrible then that's why we have Photoshop =)
I talked to teh boyfriend and we got into a very heated argument for a bit there and I told him that I never asked him to cancel his trip (because I never did) and I didn't expect him to but the fact that he wasn't even torn on the subject and didn't even consider canceling it was what hurt. We argued for a while about it and he was trying to defend himself by saying it was an annual thing and it was important to him and that if he couldn't go to Ginny then why couldn't I cancel my photoshoot and have the surgery that week (he said, and I quote from the text which he sent right before the phonecall which involved this argument: "You lost uber sympathy points when you said you wouldn't do it on the 20th because you didn't want to reschedule [the shoot] but I CAN'T reschedule.") Now this wasn't true: I couldn't have the surgery on the 20th because my mom works on Fridays and that dentist was filled up on all the other days that week. So that argument became invalid. He said I was making him out to look like an insensitive prick (which, I kinda was, because that's how I felt he was being). In any case I fully and totally explained why I was so nervous about the surgery and he immediately had a change in his tone (one you can't fake that says, "OMG I didn't know") and he said that if he'd known about the complications he would have canceled his trip but he didn't think it was serious prior to that point because his wisdom tooth surgery was a piece of cake and he expected it to be the same for me. He just thought (originally) that I was nervous because I'm a needle virgin and I've never had any dental work done besides basic cleaning. Furthermore, I think it really stuck to him when I said that *I* would drop whatever I had planned without hesitation to be with him under similar circumstances despite that he has, get this, living near or in his house: mom, dad, brother, aunt, step-uncle, 3 cousins and grandma. I have my mom. That's it. I really need him and it hurt that I was put so low on the priority list.
Nevertheless he WILL be with me on the day of the surgery and the day after. And at the photoshoot on that following Saturday. So I feel a lot better knowing that. Although I'm nervous I now feel a lot better about it. Now if only I could shake my worries about him getting drunk at in trouble at Ginny...
I'll try to write more =)

Wow it's been a while. But I need to vent and I remembered I had one of these things.
Well, here's how it goes. I just recently turned 18. My wisdom teeth have been bugging me slightly for the past two years but right now they are really hurting me. My mom had made me keep putting off the surgery and now the roots of the damn things are so embedded in my nerve in the jaw that no matter WHAT, I will retain lots of damage to my nerve. This means that I will lose most if not all feeling in my lower lip, lower gums, lower teeth and chin. It may only last a month or so but if improvement doesn't show, in order to get the feeling back I'll have to undergo major surgery on the nerve. Even then I can only get about 70% feeling back. I am so pissed at my mother that words cannot describe. And then she had the nerve to suggest I only get the bottom ones pulled instead of all four. Great, then I'll need 2 surgeries AND probably get damage to my sinuses. Fuck her, she is fucking insane.
Even worse, my mom has to work the day after the surgery but she's taking the day off regardless because my boyfriend is going on some yearly trip to Ginny Springs. He gets drunk with other friends his age (and underage drinkers, mind you) which is why my mom and I aren't going. I honestly hope some cops go there and scare the shit out of him and threaten to take him to jail for contributing to the delinquency of minors. Maybe then he'll learn that he's being an idiot. We've been dating for 9 months and I love him to death but sometimes he says and does things that really piss me off and/or hurts me. It's not enough to make me want to break up with him over it but a little more consideration would be nice.
In any case, I'm really worried about the surgery because I may never have full feeling again in those areas and that means eating and talking will feel different and even kissing my boyfriend will feel odd. I guess that's why I'm so pissed at him about it...because this is really bothering me and he wouldn't even consider me while he's having fun and getting drunk in Ginny Springs. One thing I don't need is him getting so drunk he decides he's going to cheat on me. Because drunkenness is NOT an excuse for cheating and I swear I'll kick him out on his ass.
Anyway I'm finished ranting for now. Surgery is on the 12th. Wish me luck!

I wrote a poem for my English III class today, decided to share.
Duel
En guard. Take stance,
And brandish thy sword.
Respect, good sport,
Your honor restored.
We bow, begin,
In lunge we take flight,
A spin, avoid,
We commence our fight.
Steel flash, blades meet,
A draw for the while,
One turns, one leaps,
What fine use of guile.
Touché, one strikes,
A graceful attempt,
And yet, in loss,
He shows no contempt.
Once more, we leap,
Out blades meet again,
Our courage, our skill,
We do need not feign.
Last time, pull back,
A spin and a twist,
Steel flies by his head,
He just barely missed.
Off guard, unbal’nced,
Opponent takes aim,
A tap to the chest,
His blade must be tame.
A bow, with grace,
Vict’ry he accruals,
For that is the way,
Of honorable duels.

This is what I wrote in my notebook on the plane back, partially revised.
Our trip started in Orlando, MCO, on Wednesday evening, when our plane was to leave for Newark. Everything went rather well, and we got on the flight without a hitch. Something funny happened when we got some food before boarding, though. There was this really cute Asian guy who looked Japanese, who was working behind the counter. I walked over to him and said, "I have to ask...Nihongo ga wakarimasu ka?" (This means, "Do you speak Japanese?" in Japanese). He looked at me, puzzled for a moment, and then replied, "Yes, we have honey mustard." It was very difficult not to laugh. ^^'
When we arrived in Newark, my mom asked me if I knew the name, location and confirmation number for the hotel we'd be staying at. Well, it was the only thing I didn't have, but all I needed to get them was a computer with Internet access. I knew the hotel was a Ramada, in Paris, near the Eiffel Tower and under the Metro where the market is every Sunday.
Well... apparently that was not enough. And I swear to Ra that Newark is the ONLY airport in existence without an Internet café or WiFi.
So... long story short, I had to collect call my uncle, have him hack into my e-mail account, get the info and relay it to me. We were actually a bit late getting on the plane, but we got on!
8-ish hours on a plane is not fun. Especially when you're in coach, in the very back seat and going forward with the time zones. We left on Wednesday evening and arrived Thursday at noon. I got about two hours of sleep, and uncomfortable sleep at that. My mom got none. We decided to take it easy, check into the hotel, visit the Eiffel Tower and then take a boat ride on the Seine. After that, I had some escargot and chocolate mousse before going back to the hotel for some shuteye.
On day two we went to the Louvre. I was excited, as an avid Da Vinci Code fan, that I'd be able to see where the movie was filmed. I got some good pictures of the outside, before heading to the Denon wing. My mom and I picked up the DVC audio tour guides and set out on the tour, being led by the voice of Captain Bezu Fache. Mom *loved* the tour and I enjoyed it a lot as well. Captain Fache led us around the Denon wing, showed us the main pyramid, the view of St. Sulpice from the windows, Madonna of the Rocks, the inverted pyramid and, of course, the Mona Lisa. She was indeed beautiful, but I failed to see what all the hype is about.
Anyway, having been so kindly reminded by dear Captain Fache, we headed off to St. Sulpice. Well, easier said than done, for sure. We knew what it looked like from the Louvre, but once we got into the back roads, we couldn't see the church, so we had no clue where was. Plus, there were no signs and no one had ever even heard of the place, or spoke English, for that matter.
Well, mom was about to make us turn around and go back home, but finally someone pointed us in the right direction and then we found a sign! Hooray for proper directional markers! Once we got into St. Sulpice, mom was happy and even amazed at the architecture. Unfortunately, the outside was under major construction, so there was a giant orange crane in the pictures... but the fountain out front was amazing and the inside was even better.
Here's a fun fact: St. Sulpice houses one of the largest organs in the world. As we were exploring it, it was playing and the Gothic church music added to the creepy atmosphere. I could definitely imagine everyone's favorite albino monk murder an innocent nun with such a tune playing in the background.
Of course, I had to get pictures of and by the obelisk where Silas smashed in the floor. I'm such a fangirl -_____-' Well, in any case, we finished exploring St. Sulpice and headed for Notre Dame.
I had been to Notre Dame nine years ago, but I didn't remember much and we just did the indoor tour. This time, mom and I explore the interior before heading outside to climb the tower. It was an initial 10-20 steps, then 174, then 286 and then another 112, all the way to the topmost tower of the church (these numbers might be slightly off). We got some great pictures and I managed to get a great shot of the roof window inside Notre Dame. I do, however, have sad news to report. Apparently between anime cons, Ren-fest, general wear, the Louvre, Notre Dame and the Paris streets, my boots were not up to the task. The soles not only scuffed, but chipped off and the heels caved in. My favorite boots. I was forced to leave them in the trash can of my Paris hotel. Let us all bow our heads in a moment of silence for those, my most reliable boots. May they rest, and walk, in peace v_____v
Saturday was a pretty laid-back day, because mom wasn't feeling well. We went to Avenue de Champs Élyées and saw L'Arc de Triomphe. I wanted to climb up the almost 300 steps to the top, but mom wasn't up to it, as her legs were still dead from Notre Dame. We went shopping and mom bought me a wondrous fur coat. It's haute couture, shaved black mink, with an oriental style collar and buttons, bell sleeves and very beautiful cross-like designs. We both fell in love with it and I will not even name the price, because it cost more than some people's cars.
Anyway, we made our way to the Grand Palais, only to find it closed. So, we decided to go to "Les Egouts", a fancy French way of saying "The Sewers". I wanted to go to the catacombs, but mom *had* to see the sewers. Well, even she admitted that it was disappointing and needless to say, I was pissed that I didn't get to go see the catacombs.Oh well, next time! Anyway, we went back to Champs Élyées to pick up my coat and then headed back to the hotel for some shuteye. We ended up having to take a cab, because we had such trouble finding the Metro.
Sunday was Versailles day. Just what we thought we had the Metro figured out, and he we boarded the "C" RER for Versailles, we found out that we were on the wrong train and headed way North of Versailles. Well, we manage to find the right train and finally got there... only to find it under renovations. Mom had a big fight with the ticketing people and overall we were disappointed with the Dauphine and Mesdames wings, but the "A" wing, where the bedchamber, Opera and hall of mirrors were made it worth the trip. There was a huge, windy rainstorm when we ate, and a menu board broke when it flew into some chairs. Luckily, we were sitting inside.
On Monday, my birthday, we went to Disney. We managed to get on the right train (yay!) And got there without a hitch. We went to Disneyland Parc first, the larger of the two. Instead of Cinderella's Castle, they have Sleeping Beauty's. (Although mom and I initially thought it was Belle's). They had a cave underneath the castle with an animatronic dragon Maleficent. It was really awesome.
Mom and I both noted that this Disney was not completely centered around the kids, and some things were actually pretty frightening (but not to me...they would be to kids, though). Mom was scared to death on Armageddon, which was a simulation a lot like Twister in Universal. (But Armageddon was in Disneyland Studios.)
Rock'n'Roller Coaster in the Studios was really good, but I'd have to go on the one in MGM again to compare, because it's been so long since I've gone on it. What I can say, though, is that this Space Mountain was much more intense. They shot us off the chain-lift, first off, and there was actually an inversion, a corkscrew. (And we all knew that my favorite inversion next to "interlocking" corkscrews and G-rolls.)
Well, Indiana Jones' Temple of Peril was oodles of fun, but I have a theory that the French like screwing up people's necks. This theory spawns from the fact that Rock'n'Roller Coaster, Temple of Peril and Space Mountain all jarred my neck so badly that I was almost in pain. But the other rides were less painful. I'm only glad I didn't ride Big Thunder Mountain.
Those other rides included Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean.
Now I saw the large mansion from a distance and already knew it'd be better than ours (in Disney Orlando), but little did I know that it'd be so widespread. The property itself is spread over quite a lot of land with the courtyard and a separate graveyard. It's on the water, in the middle of which is Big Thunder Mountain. I was also really surprised by the lack of lines. Now, granted, it was a Monday, school was still in and the weather was less-than-perfect...but I walked onto Rock'n'Roller Coaster. NO WAIT! That's never possible in MGM. EVER.
Anyway. Pirates. Was. Fan. TASTIC! It was way better than ours! It was much more macabre, just as Haunted Mansion was. What was even cooler, though, was that Pirates of the Caribbean actually looked like Port Royal from the outside. Not only that, but it even had a restaurant called the Blue Lagoon that looked out onto the passing boats into the ride. Mom and I ate there as my birthday dinner, and we waved as people passed, trying to get them to wave back.
Anyway, it pretty much poured from 6:30-on, so we went on Pirates of the Caribbean one last time, then shopped around a bit before heading home.
The last day, Tuesday, was pretty boring. We got on the plane, went through over 10 hours of agonizing travel time, and came back home. Other than finding out my cat died, no incidents occurred. Overall, my trip to Paris was a successful and very fun one.

| » The River Styx |
|---|
This is a poem I wrote recently. Cross-posted to some writing communities.
The River Styx (Working Title)
As I wander 'cross the valley,
Death and curiousity my galley,
My fragile mind decides to wander
Deep into a fragile mix.
Though I thought I had not any,
All I have are these two penny,
These two penny just enough
To pay to cross the River Styx.
How I got here, I don't know,
But nowhere else I have to go.
Nowhere else to send my body,
Mind and spirit all to rest.
So now I decide to see,
What death shall have in store for me,
This wonderous place that in my life
I thought that I'd come to detest.
Life's rivers seem to all lack luster,
Compared to light this water muster,
How it glitters as I pay
The lonesome Ferryman his fee.
And as we leave the valley there,
I sit and wait and long to stare,
To stare into the eyes of fate
And ask him what his black eyes see.
Why was my body told to die?
Why were my loved ones left to cry?
To cry without me by their side
To dry their tears and end the pain?
I demand they cease their sorrow,
It does nothing for the morrow,
For when tomorrow comes, what will
The crying ever have us gain?
Nothing but to cause more pain.
Pain is all we ever gain,
It's both our motive and our bane,
But then, why have we not begun...
To heal these wounds that are inflicted,
On our flesh, but we are wicked.
How can we call the Reaper wicked
For scything what must be undone?
His fell victims serve to teach us,
His message can never truly reach us,
Until his blade is at our neck,
And there our fate we must behold.
Should we cry 'til late December,
Simply so we can remember?
Just so that we can remember her
When we are gray and old?
Do not cry for such offenses,
Do not waver thy defenses,
Why should sorrow tell us how to act
And when to drop our guard?
It should not and shall never,
Let our bond these tears not sever,
Never, never shall we cry,
For such a time that we find hard.
We shall grit our teeth and smile,
Forever, not for just a while.
We should not be mourning over things
That cannot ever be changed.
These cards are what we have been dealt,
Just as all the snow will melt
Into spring, and just like this
Our fates have all long been arranged.
With my final breath long passed,
With my life gone at long last,
I will go to death, for against it,
It seems no war was ever won.
I see this now, and so I go,
No arguements I leave in tow,
The ferryman and I both know,
My fate can never be undone.
So as we cross the fateful river,
Never shall we quake or quiver,
For this is fate, and no amount of tears
Will ever change that fact.
Now I shall continue on,
On my journey until dawn,
As I see the blinding light,
I realize time is all I lacked.
Please let me know what you think.

|---|
First off, I would like to wish everyone a very Happy New Year. I hope you had a good time. I certainly did!
My mom invited me to have my friends (as per their internet aliases), Kusabana, Sly and DarkForce come with us to Universal Orlando for Dec 31-Jan 1. We started off the day with Universal Studios and made our rounds, going on Men in Black, Back to the Future, Twister, Earthquake (for which we volunteered DarkForce, much to his chagrin) and Revenge of the Mummy, among other things. The picture we bought of ourselves on the Mummy was hilarious, because I look passive, DarkForce is laughing, Sly is looking away and Kusa is screaming her lungs out, looking quite scared. We also got a picture on Men in Black, which was still funny due to the blank/agape looks on EVERYONE'S faces, minus me, because I've got one eye closed and am aiming my gun :P
We continued on to Islands of Adventure, where we rode the teacup-esque "Storm Force" ride (as per my mom's request), The Hulk, Dueling Dragons, The Flying Unicorn, The Carou-Suess-Ell, Spiderman, Dr. Doom and others. We managed to skip the lines and rode Spiderman three times, twice in a row, and Dueling Dragons five times (Twice on Fire, three times on Ice; Ice was better.) It was really funny, because on the ascent to the drop on D.D., we started chanting, "Ice! Ice! Ice! Ice!", and got the entire Ice car to join us! Fire was totally pwned, they didn't know what to do with themselves! XDDDD Unfortunately, however, as a result, I lost my voice T_T Mom bought me a pair of Grinch pjs before we left, too! Yay!
Sly had to leave before all the D.D. fun, lol, too bad for him. We decided to sit down and have some drinks, then went on Spidey one last time before heading back to the hotel at around 2AM. Dark jumped in the pool for a few minutes while Kusa and I laughed at him, then she and I went to my mom and our shared room while Dark dried off and retired to his own. We ran back to Universal to get the pictures we ordered and had left there to retrieve, then drove back to my house and hung out for a bit. It poured like mad. Kusa left first, then Dark soon followed. Dark and I had a big arguement, but all ended well, because we made up (NOT OUT! >.<), and now we're officially considering each other to be boyfriend and girlfriend. Score! Lol. I felt that after over a year, our friendship has grown to a point that I would call it an actual relationship. I also won his USMC hoodie in a bet we made at the theme park, lol.
But anyway...IN OTHER NEWS!!! We got a new truck, yay. After much hassle. So now we have two new Nissans. Woot. Had to go through a LOT to get it done. Thank goodness for my Marine, lol. He's my hero ^____^
I have oodles of schoolwork to do in these next few weeks...fun fun fun -___- Have my SAT on the 27th...but Human Chess Match tryouts on the 13th! Wewt!
I think I'm done for now. I'll reply soon!

| » Questionable Omen or Just an Odd Occurrence? |
|---|
So, something funky happened today....
(Cross-posted to Clairvoyance)
I am a big believer in clairvoyance. So, naturally, when odd things happen, I tend to attribute them to a sort of calling, warning or sign...well, here's an interesting one that occurred earlier today.
I was sitting on my computer in the den of my house, talking on the phone, when I heard a loud crash come from the kitchen, which was just over 20 feet away from me. I got up to investigate, only two find two pictures had fallen to the floor. There was absolutely nothing that could have caused them to fall...one of my dogs was in his cage and the other was sitting on the couch next to me, the cats were in a different room a good 50 feet away...no doors had been opened, nothing.
Now, I usually look into such things rather seriously, and upon picking up the pictures, I noticed that both of them were pictures of New York; one of Times Square and one of a large apple encasing Rockerfeller Center. The gone of the apple had a massive crack across the top, but Times Square was unharmed. They were not by any means close to the wall from which they'd fallen, in fact, they were about 4 feet away. This got me to thinking.
My father died recently, and every once in a while, I can feel his presence, and funky things happen, such as this. Now, you have to understand that my dad was a good man, but after his death, my mom and I found out many things about him that made us both angry with him and curious as to why he would do them. He lost a lot of money in the stocks, had my mom's signature forged on documents, and other such things. Another thing you should know is that my mother and I plan to move to NYC in a year and a half, but also spend a month there in May. Now, here are the possibilities I could think of as to why the pictures fell:
- Freak occurrence
- My father is trying to warn my mom and I of bad things to come, should we leave
- My father is trying to scare us into not going, perhaps because his spirit, if here, cannot follow us there
- My father is trying to tell us to stay and make sure we find everything we need to find in this house (He left his office a total mess)
Another thing you should know is that my dad resented my mom quite a bit because
A.) She was 10 years older than him, yet he was diagnosed with cancer.
B.) She was more organized, usually correct about things and very argumentative.
C.) After he got sick, everyone told him how lucky he was to have her taking care of him.
He was a very passively-agressive person, he hated the holidays because he never got what he wanted when he was a kid...he was a total Scrooge, but he did indeed love both my mom and I and took care of us well. He just did many stupid things -___-
Can anyone give me some insight into this? I'd really appreciate it.

I'm now in a crappy mood. I was in a fine mood today, but then it got ruined.
My mom and I went to the shooting range today. I was really excited, but we didn't get to shoot this time. We're going in two weeks, and the instructor promised to bring his Armalite AR-15 for me to try! Yay ^____^
So, I was all happy, my mom and I went shopping, I got some new boots and a fuzzy jacket, which also made me happy...and then I got home, cleaned my bathroom and got online...which is where everything went wrong.
Some jerk kept IMing me (I think it was my stalker, who I have a restraining order on), and totally put me in a bad mood. I ended up changing accounts.
In any case, I'm cold, I'm pissed and I feel threatened. I'm going to go write or something.

For some reason, I suddenly feel like owning everything that Yoshitaka Amano ever illustrated...I have a giant wishlist on Amazon.com...I already have the first 5 VHD novels...I own Coffin: The Art of Vampire Hunter D (in which Amano himself drew a picture of me in my D costume and signed) (PIC: http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c341/necroduelergurl/scan0001-1.jpg ) I also have his Tarot deck, I went to both his Convention appearance at MetroCon: Amano's World, I visited his art gallery in Sarasota...my current userpic is art by him (from 'Hiten', I believe). I am simply enthralled by his artwork. I will be trying out for the position of D at the Metrocon Human Chess Match Tryouts, and therefore, will be making a new costume. I also have another Amano artwork cosplay in mind, one which my mom is thrilled about. Clue: It involves a giant snake.
But in other news......My mom and I are getting a new car! Yay! We looked at many today, but we're leaning towards this awesome Chevy Suburban. It's in our driveway now; they're letting us test it for the weekend. We'll probably buy it tomorrow or Sunday...which is when I get to see my Marine friend and throw it in his face that, yet again, my vehicle kicks his vehicle's butt. Yeah, we're weird like that.

So, my best friend and I are no longer speaking. To make a long story short, she did/said something...actually, a few somethings that essentially ruined our friendship. So, I just lost my best friend. But it's her loss, really, because my mom treated her like her own daughter. Bought her stuff, took her places, fed her...hell, even gave her clothes. But whatever, I don't care. Well, I do, but...nevermind.
My Marine friend decided to be a moron today, too. My life is being crappy right now. I'm off to consult my Tarot cards.

Cards, cards, cards! I seem to be focused on them a lot. I just got my new Tarot deck; the Amano version ordered straight from Japan. I kick butt like that. I'll be attempting to learn to read Japanese so that I can understand the instruction booklet, but if I am unable to, I'll just buy "Tarot for Dummies" or something along those lines. The art is really beautiful on these cards!
The game cards my title talks about are from Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. It's the most unconventional "card-weilding" game to date, I must say. Once I buy KH1, I'll have all three current games. Then I'll get a PS3 when both Soul Calibur 4 and Kingdom Hearts 3 come out, even though I REALLY don't wanna. Oh well.
As for Yu-Gi-Oh!...I gave my Dark Duel Academy forum over to some reliable online friends of mine, so they could refurbish it and have a nice site for themselves. It has over 130 members, so that's a good start. I'm trying to get back into YGO, but I can't, for some reason. I may sell my cards...all but my Paladin deck; that damn thing took too long to make to just sell it off!!! Who knows, maybe I'll get back into it.
Well, I have nothing else to say, except Wii rocks and I'll be getting one in May. I'll get a PS3 when I have to. 360 for Christmas, woo! And I'm buying myself a Zune; they look interesting. Ciao.

So, I went to Universal IoA today, as compensation for HorrorFest (Which I'm still pissed about!!!!). It was rather fun. I rode the Hulk, Spiderman, Dr. Doom and Dueling Dragons, among other things. Fire Dragon totally pwned Ice Dragon. Fire is the better coaster. Oh, and Toon Lagoon has MASSIVE sandwiches of D00m! Lol, they were pretty good. Now I'm hungry T_T Oh well, off to eat.
