| | Oh, my fandom is nuts. ♥ I LOVE IT.
I'm one of those kind of people that can be quite neurotically health-conscious and if I consume something ~bad~, I feel incredibly crappy for hours after that, just kicking myself over and over again.
I'm beginning to consider whipping up some really delightful ideas from Cookingcute.com to bring to Uni for lunch. That is, if I can be bothered to buy all the ingredients and actually cook. Maybe I'm just attracted to the pictures. But....but...but they're all so cute!!
Sammy commented today that she's never seen me eat junk food, never in her three long years of knowing me. I avoid fast food outlets like the plague - but if my friends decide they want to pig out, oh, I go along - but I just don't eat. Sammy has tried multiple times to force some fries down my throat but since I end up spitting them back out anyway, she has given up all effort on her part. By the way, please negate all visual imagery of me spitting out fries. Because. You know. I don't actually do it. Spit it out. That's gross. It's just blogging fodder.
It was the same today, she decided a bit of Nando's therapy was in order and I sat there without eating, watching them wolf down their burgers and fries, making stupid jokes and laughing our arses off. Then I had a major Starbucks craving, because the hot weather coupled with the thought of a fresh Banana Coconut Frappucino (non-coffee variation, thank you very much) is just too good to pass up. I stayed as iron-willed as I possibly could, however, and firmly declared that I shall not give in to this temptation. Sammy and Joe, however, had different ideas. They yelled out, "It's the WEEKEND!!! You need to indulge for once in your life!!" We went out of Nando's and I turned to go up the street to the train station - but Joe grabbed one arm, Sammy grabbed the other, and Corinne pushed from the back and they forcefully hauled me down the road to Starbucks.
I was almost literally lifted off my feet! They dragged me all the way down the block and pushed me inside cosy Starbucks, and even ordered the drink for me. D:
So now I'm sitting at home, feeling like crap. Oh god. Shall have to work it off tomorrow and Saturday. Thank goodness I'm going riding tomorrow and I'm working at the barn over the weekend, so it shall all be burnt off by then.
Yes, I am obsessive like that. My friends have totally gotten used to me being a bit of a nutter health-wise, but Sammy still says I'm too wacky, personality-wise, for my own good. Steph joined us in the evening, and she was waiting for her boyfriend to get off work. So Sammy turned to me and was like, "Yin, I pity whoever your boyfriend is! You're so wacky, if you're anything with him like how you are with us, he'll die! From laughter!" And Joe was like, "Oh shit, Yin, you'll kill your own boyfriend with laughter!!! It will be in the newspapers, Man Dies From Overlaughing. Oh no!" xD Oh shut up!! I'm not that mad. Micheal is like, "You don't look like how you act, Yin." xDDD GAWDS. I wanna punch them all.
I love Uni, yesh. I feel comfortable around them, like when I was in high school. Then I'm myself and I'm all wacky and happy and crazy-like. I'm not like that with other people though. Even though I love people at my barn, or anywhere else, I'm still relatively ~normal~ around them. I'm not crazy or loud or funny or silly like I am at Uni. I don't know why. It's not like I have split personalities or anything, I just can't seem to be as naturally comfortable as I am in Uni. Which will be a bit of a disaster if I do finally get to see my boy, and I'm all ~arkward~ and stuff. That would be majorly awful. D:
Oh, let's not deal with what-if scenarios here! Sammy almost pushed me over the railings at the top floor of Starbucks today, in her mad fit of laughter, so I'm grateful to even still be alive! xD My life is at risk everytime I'm with that crazy girl.
Speaking of which, uhhhhh I lost about 10 cool points from Mr Cool today. D: Aagh! xD We were sitting around in the studio before lecture started, so I went over to Chris and Daniel and they were geeking out over some anime stuff on the Internetz, as per usual. Mr Cool was sitting there - as cool as he ever is (but why why why won't you cut your hair and put on some decent clothes??? pleeeasee?? You have such a pretty face, it's such a shame not to show it off!!!!) - to tell the truth one of the reasons I went over is because Mr Cool was there and I wanted to annoy Chris, but anyways. xD I beg to differ.
Yes, so they were looking at anime figurines on the net, and they were really getting into it. I know the basics, like FMP and Suikoden and all that - and Mr Cool looked bored so I casually asked him, "Do you collect these?" (even though I obviously knew he didn't, but hey, a girl's gotta be subtle!) and he just looked at me funny and said, "Hmpphh, no!!"
"No, you don't look like a person that would be into all that." I replied, then went on to elaborate that I only had one Squall figurine and even that made me feel like a geek. He gave me a funny look which I immediately took as a hint to shut up - because, let's face it, Mr Cool and me never interact, except for the random smile and wave now and then which makes me fangirl in delight whenever it happens.
Daniel started talking about how 2chan had some mascots for Windows and all that, known as the OS-tan - so he started playing me videos of it. I entertained him, watching the videos and wondering who on earth would be Otaku enough to actually animate frickin' mascots for Windows OS!!! Mr Cool groaned, shook his head and stood up.
"Oh man...you guys really need to get a life!" he snapped. Obviously this was directed at Daniel and Chris - but then just as he strode past, he shot me a reproachful look and walked out of the studio.
T_________T WHUT. I'M NOT AN OTAKU. I HAVE A LIFE. I HAVE TWO JOBS. I DON'T COLLECT FIGURINES OR WATCH DANCING CHIBIS. WHUT WHUT WHUT. Why did you look at me like that for?!?!?!?! Don't put me in the same Otaku-ness category as those two boys!!! T______T Noooooo waaaaiiiittt don't gooooo whaaaaaaatttttt come baaaaaaccckkkk~~~
Chris responded with a curt, "But that's the thing. I don't have a life."
Which, ultimately, made me chuckle. Oh, Chris. He's such an adorable dork. But still. WHAT. Mr Cool, noooo~!! Now he probably thinks I'm some freak otaku girl. T__T Oh, image, gone!
But still. All is not lost!!! Because when we went into the lecture later on, Mr Cool was there, and he smiled and waved at me. SO YESH. Internal fangirling, commence!! Oh, Danny was there too - and he was wearing the same T-shirt as I was. So it was incredibly arkward when we conversed and we were just staring at each other, the same thought lingering uncomfortably at the back of our minds. Sammy burst into laughter and prodded me later on, "You guys looked like lovers in co-ordinated outfits!!!" T___T Don't. Sammy. Taboo. As if things weren't arkward enough between us last year.
Oh my. University life is fun. It's youth! Drama! And a good sprinkling of cheesy melancholy.
I was sitting beside an old businessman on the train home, and for some reason it amused me greatly to see that he was listening to 'Ewan McGregor & Nicole Kidman - Moulin Rouge Soundtrack' on his iPod. xD
