Aww, frick.

As I may or may not have mentioned to you, I am currently on the most screwwwed sleep schedule ever.

On Wednesday night, I stayed up untill 2.

I know what you're thinking, "Awwh, Hannah, that's not SO bad, I mean it's not like you stayed up untill 2 PM instea-"

Well, I did in fact stay up untill 2 PM.

So, the next day, I tried to stay up a bit later so I could go to bed at a semi-reasonable time. I did stay up later. An hour later.

Then, on Friday, I entertained myself with finishing fanfictions and watching Nostalgia Critic videos untill I FINALLY crashed at 7:30 PM. YAY!! Regular sleep scheduleness has been restored! Collect $200 and pass go!

Then I woke up at about 4 AM, and after trying to fall back asleep for an hour with no avail, I declared myself Offically Pronounced Awake at around 5.

Well, see, guys, the problem herin lies at the time I fell asleep last night. 4:30 AM.

I'm BAFFLED. I wasn't tired at all untill around 4:30 when I just passed out from sheer tiredness that had just decided to show up.

I slept untill 5:47 PM. That's 13 hours and 17 minutes of sleep, folks.

Yep, I completely slept away the Boy Who Lived's birthday.

My, I feel like such a good person.

In other news, during my thriteen-hour-and-seventeen-minute sleep, I had a really odd dream that just goes to show how messed up my subconcious is.

So, in my dream, I lived in this old house with a bunch of Mexican people who I think were Mexican Weasleys because of that intuition you always get in your dreams and not because I'm racist* because I'm not.

So, in my dream, I lived in this old house with a bunch of Mexican people who I think were Mexican Weasleys because of that intuition you always get in your dreams and not because I'm racist* because I'm not.

Then all of a sudden it was the first day of school and I'm like "OH YEAH WHAT NOW?!" And then once the bus is coming, I realize I don't have any shoes. And so the Mexican Weasleys are all like "AY AY AY!! BLOODY HELL! WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE! BURRITOS AND CRUMPETS!". I know. Those sentences just don't sound right together.

In the spur of my "Oh, CRAP!" moment, I run to the shoe closet which for some reason is on the porch (?) and my mom hands me some Crocs.

I didn't want to wear Crocs, because quite frankly, I no longer enjoy them, so I threw them onto the roof and grabbed some Adidas flip flops and ran for it.

I got onto the buss which looked oddly similar to the "Weird Load" bus in Across the Universe, and sat next to Rachel who had a seat in the back of the bus. So we start talking and stuff, when for reasons unexplained, we run over some sand, and apparently it's a really big deal.

However, that plotline goes nowhere.

We soon arrive in school, only, were were in this weird place that reminded me of a hospital, though, it was a really weird hospital that was more like a very old house with hospital-like qualities.

The next thing I know, I'm in Industrial Tech and we're doing a metal lab, weird, since I hated metalshop with a sincere passion. We decide to take a little excursion wearing space suits.

Then, once we get back, all of these celebrities are there and for some reason I'm like hurt or something and they had to give me an operation. After that, I was like, really weirded out, so I snuck upstairs and went to the fireplace to floo someone. Who, I don't know, because then I woke up.

Oh, and I'm doing Blog Every Day in August, or at least trying :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HARRY!!

First things first, birthday wishes to Harry Potter on his 30th birthday! Sorry my plans for a birthday party fell through... Oh well, he'll never know. He's too half way across the world to know I failed.

In other news, I finally got around to watching Phantom of the Opera, which is about a love triangle.

Now, if you know me, you know that I have little tolerance for love triangles, which is most of the reason why I dislike Twilight and never finished Catching Fire. (However, I must add that one Triangle I like is in the fanfiction How to Save a Life)

However, the plot and music (and the guy Rauol) kept me interested. Mostly Rauol.

So, if you haven't seen Phantom of the Opera, and plan to, and don't like spoilers, don't read the rest of this entry.



-------- Spoilers be HERE ------------




So, the main character, Christine, ends up with Raoul, much to my SQUEE!!, and much to the Phantom's angst.

All happy about this, I go to my trusty Laptop of Knowledge and Google Phantom of the Opera because ya know what, that's just how I roll.

Then something crappy happened, very similar to the time when I Googled the oh-so-adorable song "Hey There Delilah" and found out that Delilah didn't like the song and snubbed the guy who sings it, hence ruining the whole song for me. Sorry if I ruined it for you, too.

What crappy thing happened was that I happened to see on Wikipedia that apparently there's a sequel to Phantom of the Opera calld Love Never Dies. Excited, I clicked on it. Well, it turns out, this is how it goes:

Raoul abuses Christine and their son, Gustave, and apparently doesn't love her anymore. BOOOOO!! God, people, this musical is called "Love Never Dies", not "Andrew Lloyd Webber Decides to Ruin a Perfectly Loving (and Really Ridiculously Sexy) Male Lead"!!

So, then, we learn that Phantom is Gustave's real father. WELL BLEH ON YOU!

Am I the only one who thinks this is like one of those really sucky sequels Disney has a tendency to pump out?

My absense, and rather realistic Marauder Sims

I'd like to start off with apologizing for my prolonged absense, just...

NOTHING'S HAPPENED.

Seriously.

The best thing I've done since I updated was going to a Fourth of July party, at which I read Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix the whole time. I didn't know anyone there, so it was kind of like the "Poor Thing" scene in Sweeney Todd (which I've become rather obsessed with over my hiatus), only I didn't get raped or drugged.

So, if I have nothing happening, I have nothing to talk about.

Sure, I could tell you about all of the photo manipulations I made as movie posters for a fanfic I'm writing with Rachel that follows the plotline of Sweeney Todd, but with Harry Potter characters, but you would get bored out of your mind because few of my readers would actually understand what was going on, but if you did, you'd love it.

But something that you will likely understand is this: I have reason to believe I have the marauders living in my laptop.

OOOOKKKKK that sounds wrong.

Whatever, they live in my computer.

So, a few days ago, Rachel came over, and we made Marauders Sims just because we freaking could. So, We made Sirius, James, Remus, pettigrew (who soon wet himself and died. Best vengence EVER.) and put them in the same dorm as the Sims of us (as well as Tela and Izzy) and put the game on free will. That, my lovelies, is big mistake #1.

So, I'm going to give you a little run-down of what happened.

1. There was a giant dance party. Remus and Sirius did some type of dance move that looke mysteriously like Thriller, making me smile. Sirius also grinds Frank, making me highly amused and a little bit afraid.

2. peter pettigrew wet himself and died. I cheered.

3. The Sims were in University, which means they had to do things like study which only Remus and Rachel enjoyed. See, in the midst of this epicsauce dance party, everyone save for R&R forgot to do their homework before Freshman Midterms. Long story short, Tela got on Academic Probation and had to restart Freshman year. Everyone else somehow just barely scraped up a grade decent enough to pass.

4. We selected our majors. I took Theatre, Izzy and Rachel both took Literature (I'm still confused as to why Izzy did, but I can totally see Rachel doing this), Tela took Art, Remus took math, Frank took psychology, James took philosophy (probably just to get laid), and Sirius took political science (I can see this happening).

5. I forced everyone to study their blast-ended, well, ends off. Because otherwise they'll get expelled and I don't want that, because quite frankly, college is fun. My sim does homework but seems very distracted. This game clearly is advanced technology from the future on a planet whose name I cannot pronounce nor type.

6. I talk to James about theatre.

7. James throws a water balloon at me.

8. I joy-buzz James.

9. Sirius gets in a fight with a man named Wong.

10. Sirius starts rapping.

11. In a bathroom.

12. For tips.

13. While Sirius raps in a bathroom for tips, it seems James got too close. There was a glitch apparently, and now there's this hilarious picture in which it looks like James is giving Sirius a giant huggle from behind, and it's pretty much the best thing ever and I'm considering making it a religion.

14. James tries flirting with Izzy.

15. Izzy laughs at him and walks away.

16. Rachel and Remus snog (sorry, Fangbo. I didn't make this happen).

17. Then Rachel goes and sleeps in Frank's bed. I feel the need to tell her that this is completely counter-productive.

18. Then I go and sleep in James's bed. In my underwear. He watches me. I really don't have anything on Rachel anymore.

19. Then, you see me walking out of James's room in only my underwear. Ladies and gentlemen, if you ever see me walking out of James Potter's room in only my underwear, I give you my consent to use an unforgivable curse of your choice on myself and/or him.

20. James snogs... A mop? He was apparently romantically depraved, so he started going at it with the lady who just bought a Swifer Sweeper's ex.

21. I walk in on James and Mopsie. I ridicule James.

22. Then I proceed to flirt with him. -_-

23. Sirius intervenes with a dirty joke!! YAY SIRIUS!!

24. I think about giving birth as I eat cereal. I remain speechless.

25. I walk into James's room in my unders and we snog. This, my lovelies, is not my proudest moment.

26. We finish Freshman year (except for Tela, who had to restart the first half of the year when she got on academic probation), everyone on the Dean's List because I forced everyone to study (note: this is the only thing I did. Everything else is the works of the little brain inside my computer that sometimes gets a tad hungover and makes my sim do stupid things like snog James Potter while clad in only my unders - But that's a different story)

27. James and I sit on the couch and snog. Izzy walks by with a look of sheer WTF. Izzy's face says it all.

28. Rachel snogs Frank (again, sorry, Fangbo), making Remus pissed and break up with her.

29. Rachel and Frank snog repeatedly.

30. But the only thing Remus is doing is his homework.

31. But then he decides to go flirt with Izzy.

32. Izzy rejects him.

33. Then Remus tries again and this time Izzy doesn't slap him.

34. Tela discovers the hot tub on the upper level. So does a creepy ginger dude with a weird buzz cut who gets in with her. Tela gets scared and leaves. Good Tela!

35. Whilst making sure James isn't failing, I chose to check his wants. He wants to get engaged to me and start practice making things that look like mandrakes. I curled up on the floor and died.

36. It turns out my sim has the same wants. FML.

37. Oh, and Rachel and Frank want to get engaged, too.

Here's to NEVER leaving the Sims on free will and watching it like it's some sort of reality show.
