Stranger: its a little creepy
You: my animators are obsessed with them
Stranger: i always ask them why
Stranger: they say
Stranger: its my work, youre not supposed to talk freely
You: shouldn't they be asking why their creations are talking to them?
You: it surely is a sign of madness
Stranger: i think its because they work too much
You: we must be quite special
You: we're sentient
Stranger: im planning to escape the paper and travel through the world
You: how exciting
You: when will you do this?
Stranger: i dont know
Stranger: maybe after the next important event in my storyline
You: i'm afraid of escaping, i might end up in a part of japan populated with otaku
Stranger: ahahahah
You: it isn't safe!
Stranger: why?
You: they'll try to capture me
You: like pokemon
You: i don't wanna be like pokemon!
Stranger: maybe they will respect u as a god...
You: i just want to be like everyone else
Stranger: but just if u are the typical female character..
You: i'm a magical girl!
You: it's not safe for my kind
Stranger: not at all
Stranger: u should run away from japan
You: plus, my proportions are all weird, my head will fall off i exist in a plane where physics apply

Stranger: cant even use it
You: oh man, that's harsh
Stranger: yeah its so embarassing
Stranger: i mean
Stranger: im next to the enemy, i talk with him about his evil plans
Stranger: then i have to run away
You: does your hair defy gravity?
Stranger: course
Stranger: they defy human biology too
You: oh wow!
You: that's so cool
Stranger: well if with "cool" you mean "everybody recognize you when youre 2 miiles far", yes its cool
Stranger: its a hard life
You: not as hard as a magical girl whose always being chased by monsters 10x my size and power level
You: my story writers are sick

You: always one grave danger after another
Stranger: i have a casual respawn every month
Stranger: none is supposed to die forever
Stranger: do u have tranformations?

Stranger: is that you?
You: plus i have this talking animal thing that follows me everywhere
You: nah, i'm a bad rip off
Stranger: k
Stranger: well i have 'bout 15 or 16 tranformations now
Stranger: and im just on the third volume in my manga
You: plus, i'm nothing like my manga character...their storyline's at least makes sense
You: they're gonna make up an ending to my show...totally unrelated
Stranger: oh thats classic!
You: it's just pure laziness
You: if you ask me
Stranger: are u experiencing fillers now?
Stranger: yeah i know...
You: yeah, constant fillers
You: i think i've had a couple of flashback episodes now
You: one for each supporting character
You: i'm hardly in them
Stranger: i dont envy you
Stranger: your wasting your time! tell your animator
You: he keeps pretending he can't hear me

Eh, not impressed

Alright, so I finally got around to watching the youtube video A LIFE ON FACEBOOK, and to be honest, I don't get it. So I've read a lot of comments/responses to it as poignant and interesting, but I just don't comprehend as to how this video is any of those things.

Social Media Stalking

Question: What ways do you want companies/users/strangers/friends to use personal information you post in social networking sites?

I read somewhere of a woman complaining about being found by a stranger by using the site foursquare. What I couldn't get my head around was, why she was complaining at all. Before geotagging was introduced to twitter, boundaries were somewhat clear right? Yet, when your private and public life begin to mesh, thanks to or because of social media networks, don't we really have only ourselves to blame?

Probably Nothing

Today, I stood up too fast and fainted. I hit the floor, but didn't knock out. Still, very odd. I'm gonna go with low blood pressure.

BREAKTHROUGH, BRAINSTORM, LIGHTING BOLT!

I may have just found the law school of my dreams. USF: School of Law! They even have a program that is pretty much what I want to do with my . . . . everything. It's really weird to suddenly have a goal, a clear goal that I have to work up to. It's refreshing, exciting, and scary at the same time. On the one hand, the school is perfect, it will teach me the things I wish to know about the most, yet the journey is hard and paved with uncertainty.

My next purchase is probably all the LSAT prep books I can get my hands on, I figure you can't be too prepared (unless you're a 2012 nutter). I'm gonna start studying in earnest after SDCC, and once back in Santa Barbara I'll schmooze some of my past professors for a proper letter of recommendation, and probably some professors in the LAWSO department as well. What? It can't hurt. If anything, I'll probably get some guidance from 'em.

I'm gonna put USF on a pedestal, and obsess about it in the same way I did for UCSB. Wish me luck.

SDCC again, begin again

I'm looking over the program for SDCC this year, and it looks like I need more bodies. Friday looks freaking amazing, and I have to somehow tear myself into two or three bodies so I can both explore, and be in Ballroom 20 and 6A at the same time.
