Yesterday I posted a space pic to DeviantArt. (Its at the end of the post.) The planet is the one I was making in my programming class and the rest I did last night at home. I love the way gimp'd stars turn out. Photoshopped stars look icky. >.< Apparently the guys in my class last year at OTC like it. :) Oh, and it has three faves! W00t. Not bad considering it's my first space deviation.
The girl I mentioned before as being in my OTC class dropped out. wuss.
On to my second subject:
I have decided to start reading some of those books that I should have read, but haven't yet. Stuff deemed 'classic'. I've started off with Alice in Wonderland. I never really thought the smoking caterpillar was that weird until a girl from Blue Lack commented on how it was 'totally smoking a hookah', then I was like 'whoa, you're right'. I don't remember any large amounts of pepper or a baby turning into a pig at all, or fishy/froggy messengers being in the movie. There were no beautiful girls in this like there were in Miyuki-chan in Wonderland either. The book I checked out from the library has both Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass combined into one. Because I finished Wonderland today I've started on Looking Glass.
After I finish that one I plan to begin Death on the Nile and 2001: A Space Odyssey. According to my mom, she read every Agatha Christie book she could get her hands on, so depending on how much I like it I'll probably do that too. If you're wondering how I chose these books in this order it's because I read Miyuki-chan in wonderland and wanted to see where that was coming from. Then in the back of the Case Closed manga there are reading suggestions, DotN is included. Then 2001: A Space Odyssey is referenced a lot and sounds like it could be good. They're in the order received as holds at the library.

Heroes ep. 2.1 comments
*puts room in movie mode [lights off, etc.]*
Warning: spoilers for the season premier and/or first season of Heroes may be included, I dunno.
That was awesome. (I'm completely over using that word as of late) I loved how Hiro's Hero (that sounds weird) ended up being a gaijin! The "What village is that?" "Otsu." scene was interesting. Did Hiro screw up time? or did the story told change through time?
That weird little symbol thing? I already don't like it. It seems bad. To put it simply.
(Edit: The heroes wiki is using the scary symbol as its icon!)
I really want to re-watch season one, I missed too much stuff, like all of Hiro's dad (well, not all, but most) And so with that last thing I was more of "nooo" because I'm a Hiro fangirl than a Kaito fangirl. Ando was one of those characters I started out disliking and then being okay with. I didn't like his 'system' for getting money. He was oh so close to getting the sword there in time but noo... meanie writers.
My ADD is really coming out in this. While I was watching it I had a zillion things to say, but I've forgotten. Of course.
I had heard of twitter from Megatokyo before. Yesterday (or the day before, not sure) I got one. I've been posting to it a lot. Spamming might be more accurate. I have it set up as a little thing in the right column of my blog.
Journeyman has been playing behind me for the past 45 minutes. It doesn't sound like a show I'd like despite the timetravel. Building a Mystery would have been more fitting had it shown up in Moonlight or something along those lines.
I decided I like the labels for posts and have begun to overuse those too. Bad habit of mine isn't it? Over using things? When I click "Show all" for the labels it's three rows long already. yeash.
That's all that's coming to mind at the moment, so g'night no one. (not like any one reads this)

woo. We started the Computer Donation Project at OTC last week. Today I wandered off towards a strip mall near me. I got two $5 donations from individuals and one lady didn't have anything on her (which means maybe latter), but was also willing to donate a computer. (cool) Benitos (a pizza place at the strip mall) donated $60! This means I have to make them a sign to carry at the walkathon, but that's okay. Curves donated $10; my mom $5. Bringing me to a total of $85! Woo Hoo!
I'm half watching/listening to Chuck. The ballet scene was really cute. ^^ The whole ninja lady thing was kinda lame though, and if she really is part of some organization they'd so be able to get something off the computer that fell off the shelf. It takes a heck of a lot more than that to erase data. It just means you have do a bunch of pain in the neck stuff that would be easy for an organization with a ninja lady of her caliber.
(Edit on chuck: eeks! Will he get there in time? It's the first episode. What d'you think?)
I can't wait to see heroes! squee~
I wonder who they'll be fighting this time? In TV guide they mentioned a villain worse than Sylar. Uhh, is it just me or do the villains always get worse or stay exactly the same as ever? It isn't like they'd make the villain more boring than before, right? That isn't anything new at all. Hiro better be as awesome as ever and I hope to see more of the kid (Micah?) He seemed like he could be interesting. I didn't like his mom though, the split personality thing has been done too many times on One Life to Live for me to find it interesting.
On the other hand, house with, like, forty job applicants ought to be interesting. I guess by episode four he narrows it down to less than ten or so. I was really mad with the getting rid of House's team, but TV guide (I bought it because it had a Hugh Laurie interview; Hugh: "I am not pregnant!" An eye catching line for the cover of the mag.) ...but TV guide said that the ducklings have just taken different possitions in the hospital. How much you wanna bet that Cameron is working with Wilson?
I'm gonna start a new post for my Heroes commentary and more stuff. Why? 'cause I want them to be separate from my 'I hope blah blah blahs'.

It's been over a year since I last posted anything.
I am completely unsurprised by this fact. Since then a ton of stuff has happened. I wonder how much I can cram in here between homework, cooking macaroni (and eating it), and goofing off with what ever other random things I find to do.
My mom and I went to Alpena for the fourth of July again. Unfortunately the fireworks were canceled because of the start switch. >.< (*typing with one hand and holding the mac'n'cheese pan with the other*) We were sitting there for hours... and of course I promised a friend that I'd take pics with the camera she's loaning me. You'd think they could get them right considering they have a whole year to prepare and it isn't like they haven't done it before. They were going to do them the next night, but there were storms. I tried to get some lightning pics, but I don't think it worked. I wouldn't know though, seeing as they still haven't been developed.
We stopped by that same antique mall, but didn't find anything neat this time. And you know how I mentioned that little plate from last year? I hung it up above my light switch in my room. It fit perfectly between my poster and the door frame. I ended up bumping it and it broke. T.T and to make it worse I had to stupidly run my hand across the carpet looking for pieces. Well, I did find one. >.< anyways...
Okay... other stuff...
OTC - Oakland Technical Center - where a bunch of high schoolers from different schools go to get vocational training. There's floral, and culinary, and automotive... I go there for 'Computer Maintenance and Networking Technology.' For the 06/07 school year I went during the 'pm' afternoon class and only saw the 'am' guys (because I was the only girl the entire day in the CMNT class) at LAN parties or the walkathon. This year (07/08, my senior year) I'm in the AM class because my school decided to change the scheduling from 6 to 7 class hours and OTC is now AM only.
From the beginning of June til the 29th I kept going to OTC to get my A+ OS (I already got my A+ Core/Hardware) because the test was going to expire on the 30th. If I didn't get it I would have had to start from the beginning to get my A+ essentials this year. I ended up passing like most of the of the pm class and unlike most of the am class)
I'm currently trying to get my Network+ cert. blah blah blah... It's boring. Though there was a girl in the first years, but I think she dropped out. She did mention disliking the fact that we were the only two girls. Today we played a jeopardy game and I pwned. I would have won if I had bid more, but I was in a rush [to catch the bus, of course I had to wait for the bus driver like always].
I'm finishing up the post I started on the 19th. Today's the 20th. There used to be more. I forgot what I was going to type. So I'm just gonna post already. Lest this rot as a draft and never be posted.
Woo! I finally got around to bugging bravehost about the fact I couldn't log in! I'm going to start working on my website again. If only my school had TextPad.
One program they do have that I never will is CS3/Photoshop/whateveryouwanttocallit. Last year I discovered from cKy-sound's test planet a tutorial on making planets and thus began to work on one in Desktop Publishing last year. I'm starting from scratch this time around. Last time I made it the size of the entire picture so the fuzzy atmosphere was cut off. >.< I'm thinking I'll try to find a different texture too. The one I'm using at the moment is really boring.

Woo! It's not that I'm not getting them or that they were sent to junk folder! They just took forever to come in. It's still annoying though.

I keep signing up for things and I've switched to using Agent to check my mail instead of nasty hotmail. But I've had the email set up for ages so I don't have to log in. Though there is one big problem: I can't remember my pass. It's okay right now, I can see my inbox. But if anything gets put into junk I just don't get it. And because I can't log in to the webmail I cant change what goes where so I'm missing half the stuff I want. It's REALLY bugging me, to click the resend the comfirmation over and over and see "No new email" is quite annoying.

I finaly got around to posting something again and of course I no longer have any thing to say, not surprising considering I had to wait forever for my mom to get off the comp. It just so happens that the moment she got off that she saw lightning. -.- just great...
I'm using something called "Performancing" for firefox to post this. It's kinda neat. It automatically saves what you've typed when you make it go away so you can type a little then come back latter, type more, and post it when it doesn't seem like a patheticly short post anymore.
I haven't updated my website in quite a while so I guess maybe soon I'll dredge something up for it.
I've been reading too many fanfics again, as usual. Yesterday I finished re-reading HP & the prisoner of azkaban. I don't know WHY but I've been drawn back into HP. reading fics and beggining the fifth book again today and everything.
I've disappeared to my entire buddy list (all three of them.) because my dad was annoyed by the little update thing so I uninstalled it and tried to reinstall it in just my account but it didn't want to work properly so I decided to wait til the next day. Next time I try I discover that I've got a limited account and no privliges.
And there was much rejoicing. grrrrr...
My mom and I went to Alpena to see fireworks. They were really good. Discovered a big antique shop that had lots of cool things, I got a little vase and a plate (it has a pretty autumn scene painted on it) both made in Japan.
Also three coins $0.50 each. One is german and has 1900 on it so I'm assuming that it's from 106 years ago so it seems like it was a good buy. The other two are asian, one looks to be a 50 Y japanese coin, it has a 49 on it too. 1949? showa period 49? no idea. the last one is really tiny and doesn't have any numbers I can read but it does look like it's got the kanji for 1 on it. (it's the easiest kanji in the world: it looks like this> - )
I guess I should hurry up and post now, there's a lot of lightning

I'm beginning to think I just like to fill stuff out. I already have a blog and on that one the first post mentions another blog (I don't remember the login and stuff so it doesn't make a difference really). I figure I'll use this as my 'people know about it blog' and the other one as my anonymous one (or more so...) for all the stuff I don't want anyone else to know. I've been trying to get my website online but I can't find a really good free host. At the moment I've got my site entirely up (though there is a lack of content) at sisakat.bravehost.com . I also have it partially up at geocities.com at http://www.geocities.com/sisakat2000/index.html . I always seem to go back to geocities after my search for a good host but this summer I think I'll stick with bravehost. The ads don't bug me as much.
My social life is boring and I've barely left the house this summer. And not once to go to a friends house or anything like that. I was planning to but never really got around to it. -.-;
