I am getting annoyed...

Possible swearing ahead.

With people who constantly complain about their marks. So what if you got A? So what if you didn't get all E's? I am not naming names but you know who you are.

The fact is, you PROBABLY got more than me.
So seriously, stop complaining. I am getting sick of it. So you got a bad mark in English? Don't hate English, don't hate the teacher, its your problem, not anyone else's.
I am sick and tired of hearing "Oh I only got one E on Science!!! AHHH!!! I HATE SCIENCE!!!" [yes you know who I'm talking about everyone] For hells sake, why do you hate it? Because you might be moved down a class? Well then get better at science and move up a class! Because your parents might feel disappointed in you? Well you passed! That's all that matters.
Because you feel disappointed in yourself? Well, you did what you thought was right and best at the time, so don't be so hard on yourself. I mean, if your going to be so freaking hard on yourself in Year 9, by the time you get to NCEA, then you will probably start crying everytime you get one freaking question wrong. I mean, it's over, you passed, stop being so bloody asshole.
I swear, I will start yelling at you every freaking time you bring this up again. I am so pissed at this, I really am. Just shut the eff up and get on with life.

And since you all have not realised how awesome your marks are, then here are mine. All of them. Good and bad ones.

Science: M M A+
English: E M A A
SS: E Ejust
Maths: E E E E
French: M E E
Spanish: E E E E

So shut the hell up.

I don't even want to sign off after that.

EXAMS ARE OVER YOSH!!!!

And we have some highlights from it:
I am allowed to brag, but only for this one blogpost, and I will not mention it again. This is the only time I will ever bring it up again and if I do, and someone hasn't asked me about it first, tell me off. Yes Livi, you heard what I said.

1. Me studying for 2 hours for SS. Then having 5 pages for my essay to waffle which is the only way I can put my points foward

Waffle: Its a word Mum and Dad use to say that I don't get straight to the point, instead I just seem to go around and around in circles and say lots of other crap.

2. Through aimlessly going on the computer when I was meant to be studying [at school] I found the Light Novels of The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi. Its good. Weird but good. I will be reading the Spice and Wolf Light Novels next.

3. I also discovered the Sonny with a Chance So Random Scavenger Hunt game. Which is weirdly addictive. [don't glare at me like that okay? I was bored. Like to the point where Fancy Pants World Adventure AND the random Fire and Ice Game on Frivschool couldn't help me. As much as we know that that certain company is probably evil and whatever, seriously, compared to the other crap games in the world, this one is actually challenging for me. And that is saying something]

4. All Es in Spanish. Yes.

5. Maths exam having a tessalation sheet to doodle on when we had finished the test. Genius.

6. Me starting my Fractured Fairy tale in the hour free at the end of the maths exam [we had 2 hours to do it but the whole class did it in one]. Me and Wendy are doing one about Peter Pan, the fairy godmother and the 3 fairies from Sleeping Beauty being LEP recon agents. We also have Holly Short, Butler and Artemis from the Artemis Fowl books. It will be epic. Maybe. Not so much....

And yeah thats it.

And yes, that's it.

~Sylvia~

Ah yes, Angel reminds me that her Mum's birthday is this week [?]

This blog is not dead yet

Just I have a lot of exams. ARGH.

So yes, this is why the lack of posts.

I have given up on trying to post stuff about my dreams BTW.

Although, if you must know, I had one about W.I.T.C.H. last night. Not very interesting.

Well, there isn't a lot of stuff to say.

Friday Randomness No. 5: A Shipper Special

I am NOT a shipper. I repeat I am not a -maybe I am? Hell, that would suck. Seriously suck.

And also, this is MY view. And MY view only. I may be wrong, I may be right, but this is me, taking things on at face value.

I'd like to do a mini rant about shippers and shippering. It annoys me. And amuses me.

What it is: When a person 'ships' people on the television, they just kinda hope and root that they get together. They are shippers.

Am I one of them romantics? Nah. No way. I don't dream to meet some hot dude and we go off into the sunset and get married and s*** like that. That's stupid and cliche and so unrealistic that I feel like slapping those people's heads off.

Shipping on forums about tv:

Hell, sometimes it is really scary. I read tv.com forums quite frequently. Go on there if you have nothing to do.

Anyway, on the Grey's Anatomy Forums, they are so fierce on their shippings they bite back everyone else that disagrees. Or well thats what I saw on the Gizzie forum [George and Izzy, but we'll go onto that later]

Some are more, budging them along kind of rooting for them, as we already know that they will end up together in the end, that's one of the points of the show [but not the main one though, thank goodness] like Bones and Booth on Bones.

Shipping on forums on manga:

It's even more scarier than the tv forums. In Japan, I'm not sure if you are aware, but Japanese society totally thinks *alrighty, fine* on the terms of people being gay/lesbian/huge jumps in age/marrying at 16 [its allowed there, and does happen, like Kagome in Inuyasha got married at 16]. This means that anything and EVERYTHING goes. People get shipped with their best friends [and only friends], teammates, leaders, teachers [on Cardcaptor Sakura *manga*, Rita had an affair with her teacher. I swear], arch enemies, cousins, inner selves even.

Although half of them, I must admit, are 'Crack Pairings', pairings that are never going happen, but people still root for them cos the pairings that are probably going to happen are so boring/don't like the characters that its just not worth rooting for the main ones.

You search any big manga on deviant/google images/photobucket and you get all this ack wtf stuff of shippings making out and crap. [What the hell are looking at that for? you ask? well i was looking for funny icons as half the icons on the web aren't under '_______ icons' so you have to search through the whole freaking lot, including numerous repeats of images, sick jokes, and disgusting pictures, and pictures not even related to said subject [i think it was when i was looking up bleach, there was all these punk rock jeans pics on there. v. wtf.]

Weird shipper names:

Yes, I know it is a fusion of two names but it still sounds weird. Even if it is just a shortened form.

I was talking about shipping with Mum [what Sylvia? Talking about SHIPPING of all things with your MUM?! That's FREAKING CRIMINAL!] cos we were talking about the season finale of Fringe.
Conversation went a bit like this:

Sylvia: Well I guess Polivia can't happen then...kinda sucks for the shippers
Mum: Polivia? What's that?
Sylvia: Peter and Olivia. That's for people who want them to get together. That's like the shortened form of them.
Mum: Sounds weird.
Sylvia: Like Huddy or Hameron.
Mum: What is that?
Sylvia: House and Cuddy, House and Cameron, though I don't think they have one for Chase Cameron cos that's kinda doesn't work. Although I think that the best one by far that doesn't sound retarded is BB: Bones and Booth. Although Tiva [Tony and Ziva from NCIS] works well too...
Mum: I don't really care, Sylvia.
Sylvia: Neither do I...

Apart from Tiva and BB. They kinda are probably going to happen so Sylvia may/may not jump the bandwagon. Or just root for them, when the boring parts are on...


Oh and another one between me and Livi about Polivia [Livi isn't into shipping, and doesnt go on many tv forums so she doesn't really know about shipping, even if it is about her beloved Fringe anyway [she thinks Walter is awesome though, and if wasn't before, him saying that Vampires are probably not real just sealed the deal [hates Twilight, see her blog for why]]:

Livi: Polivia and Huddy?
Sylvia: Peter and Olivia, House and Cuddy.
Livi: Strange.
O_O
What's Cuddy?
Sylvia: She's House's Boss on House
Livi: Right.
Ohh yeah.
I was thinking Polivia was like..
Polland+Bolivia=Polivia
Sylvia:
LOL thats true
its strange shipper names

Meh, that's it for now,

I don't know about toasters but my school's computer team can just di-FAIL

Cos dying isn't really good.





But our computer management people have MSN from our laptops/internet. ARGH!





Well I suppose I can see the plus side and all but really: IT SUCKS.


So I'm going to be bias and think like that.








So I am thinking about the sucky things in my life at the moment.





-Angel has to do a report about toasters for NCEA Level 1. Yes you heard me, TOASTERS. That sucks. She's done a blog post about it, so I advise you to check it out.


-We are starting forces in Science. Not that I don't like Physics, but about this time last year, I was doing forces in my other school. Oh fun fun. I also remember my teacher's failed attempt at drawing a foot pushing off from the ground to make the skateboard go faster. I don't know how to describe it. So I will fail to draw the failed drawing.

Yep. And yes, those lines are to mark his pants, not his shoes. Or well its for both. Meh.

-Exams in 4 weeks. English is 2 hours where we have to write 3 essays. >_<

-Spanish speech next week about "Vivo en mi casa" and so such.

-I will fail my SS presentation. I will not get E [equivalent to A in America BTW], as I never get E's for SS at all. And English is the only subject where we get to resit our tests. Why can't all classes be like that?!

-Internet Explorer/my Wireless Internet is crapping out.

-I am procrastinating against doing homework and are now doing Mathletics, which is as close as I got to, to doing any homework this 1/2 hour. And no, my Art is not finished. I actually forgot about it.

And now I've got that out, I am going to now watch Fringe.
