Reasons I am Excited.

Reasons I Am Excited for Going to College:

1. Independence.
2. Meeting people I saw at orientation again.
3. Using my new body wash.
4. Learning Japanese.
5. Going to a party school to NOT drink.
6. Finding clever ways to hide the picture on my ID card.
7. Boyz.
8. Swiping my card at the dining hall.
9. Playing UMassopoly...at UMass!
10. No more screaming babies.

Probably in that order.

One Ok Rock.

I found a song I like. You should like it, too.

Standby

I am on standby until college. I have no opinions left.

Harassment.

I haven't been updating because I've been sucked in to the worlds of reading, The Keep, and Rappelz.

I had my first MMO-harassment experience.

So, this dude was on pk mode, and he started hitting me, and I was like "NO GO AWAY." He asked if I was a girl, and I said yes, then he was like "hold on getting it off," and I kept running away, and he kept chasing me, and then asked me if I wanted a pet orc, and I was like "No you jerk get away." So I ran to the teleporter and lost him.

Yup.

Server's Down.

Dear The Keep:

I'm sorry I decided to make lots of noise and sound this morning. I don't know if you're offended or scared or just comatose, but I figured that I would apologize anyways. I will make a list of things I like about you so that maybe you'll wake up again.
I like that you let me type in my purple font. I like that you let me ignore people who are annoying the hell out of me. I like that you refresh things automatically for me; it takes a load off of my mouse. I like that you let me use the backspace key on things that are not so funny, and display things that are funny because someone made a Freudian slip. Most of all, I like that you let me talk to people. Thank you, The Keep.

Love,
Shannon

Screaming.

I am very picky about the music I listen to. Most often, I look for a gorgeous voice.

I do not listen to screamo or any kind of music with screaming in it. So, if you want to show me a song, please don't send me screams.

Why don't I like screamo? For several reasons:
-It grates against my eardrums.
-It ignites anger within me.
-I take it personally. I ask my music, "Why are you screaming at me? I have done nothing to do."
-I can't sing along to it.

Pretty voices are pretty.

The Keep (if you don't know what it is, don't read).

I used to do a thing called online roleplaying when I was younger. I frequented a site called The Keep and got to interact with all sorts of interesting characters. After a while, I started to get picky with what I wanted to happen, and bored with people who were uninteresting. So, I stopped RP-ing. I got busy in real life. Recently, I've gone back there, and I'm going to start roleplaying a bit (at least until school starts).

This is a post about things I dislike about profiles. Why? Because I can and I have no more ideas of what to write.

HATERS GON' HATE

-Listing all of your friends/acquaintances/family/spouses/whatever. If you've met people, awesome, but are you honestly going to RP with most of them again?

-Listing compliments on your profile. If it makes you feel good about your character, then post it where only you can see it. Reading how much other people like your profile is not going to prompt me to make one as well.

-Refusing to use spell check. You could be the greatest RP-er in the world, but if I see twenty spelling mistakes in your profile, I'm going to think you don't care enough to attract serious roleplayers and display your true level of intelligence. derp judgmental derp. Guess what, it does matter.

-Excessive quotes. If you have one or two, that's fine; most of the time, none of us have no idea what the hell you're talking about.

-Playlists. It's cool if your character was inspired by a song, but it's not cool if you've got ten different songs for ten different situations. I like MY music library. D:

-Stats (unless you do D&D-type RPs frequently). I don't know what it means.

-Declaring yourself the ruler of something in OOC profiles. You're not. It's highly likely that I've been here longer than you (I'm talking about you, Mainhallers. I was here when the MH was just starting to be declared OOC again!)

-Slaves in general, but, even more annoyingly, slaves who make a point of being extremely feisty and hard to buy. What's the point of being a slave, then?

EDIT: People who put lists of people they ignore are not cool, either. jerks.



If people from tK are reading this, I know you're going to agree and disagree with a lot of this. I don't really care, either way. I just need a filler post.
