ADD And Exhaustion and Migraines, Oh My!!

Hello!

So, I've recently started up a mini-book club with my friends, where a group of us reads part of a book, and then talks about it, and then read more, and then talk more, and so on and so forth. The first book that we're reading together is The Hobbit. I've read this book before, and I love it. But I find myself super distracted as of late and haven't read more than about ten pages in it, and the first chapter is 27 pages. And I've recently become addicted to the Pirates of the Caribbean game on FB, so it seems like whenever I DO have any free time, I'm playing that. I used to read in my spare time (which I still love doing) but lately this Pirates game is my new addiction. Since when do I prefer electronics to a good, old-fashioned book???

I also find that I'm exhausted all the time. There doesn't seem to be a time where I'm not at least a little bit tired, from the time that I wake up to the time that I go to bed. And I've also recently started two new medications, one of which is an anti-depressant, so maybe they're affecting this? I don't know, I just wish that I could figure out WHY I'm tired all the time, and fix it. It's not good to be this tired all the time when you have a full-time job and will be starting school again in a month.

Speaking of medicine, my headaches and migraines have come back in full force and even worse than before, it seems. I haven't had to go to the hospital or leave work because of one yet, but I have called in to work because of one a couple of weeks ago. Which I can't afford to do, with a car note that I need to pay, and insurance I need to pay, and two new ducks to feed, and six incoming chickens I need to feed.... The good thing about feeding the ducks and chickens, though, is that they eat the same food, and I SHOULD only need 1 bag a month, which is about $13.50. So that's not too bad.

I wish my migraines would stop, though.

I'm baaaaack......

Hey guys! So I know that I haven't posted on here in over two years (wow, that's a really long time!) but honestly I've had a lot going on and I forgot about this thing.... BUT I'M BACK! Hopefully to stay, and I'll definitely be posting on here again, more often than I was when I actually was still keeping up with this thing. Hopefully once a week? Yeah, that sounds good for now. Anyway, I have to go do clothes, but I'll be back in the next couple of days or something to tell you guys what's been going on in my life. :D

The Animal Song

First, let me be very clear in stating that that just happens to be the song that I'm listening to at the moment.


Second, I just wanted to blow off some steam. I have a headache (thank you braces) and I think it's going to get worse before it gets better. But also, I'm trying to write stuff for my book series as well as something for each of the contests I'm in, and stuff for myself. It's proving to be very difficult. I'm not entirely sure where to go from where I'm starting. And it's extremely distressing. I'm ready for school to be over. I'm ready to move into my apartment. I'm ready for a job (which I can't find). I'm ready for a lot of things to happen, and none of them look like they're going to happen anytime soon. I guess the best thing I can do is to pray to God and prepare for whatever he sends my way in the next couple of months.


Anyway, I'll be back in a few days. I figure as long as I have this thing I may as well update it as often as possible. If I don't, then it's pointless. Haha. Later guys.

4 Minutes

Yay! Another post! The second one in less than 24 hours! That's a shock, isn't it, guys? Anyway, I thought I'd update you all (the all of like, three people that actually read this) on my DSL. I FINISHED IT! It took me many frustrations, and about eight and a half hours (with some breaks) but I finally finished it! I'm so happy about it, guys!

On another note, have you guys gotten to see "Holy Musical, B@man" over on YouTube yet? It's put on by StarKid Potter, the same company that did "A Very Potter Musical" and "A Very Potter Sequel". And this one is just as amazing! I love it. :D Well, I guess that's it for now. Can't really think of anything else to say. Later guys!

Just a another update from your friendly neighborhood blogger.

Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been posting on here recently. Life's been crazy and I've been lazy. And I'm not entirely sure what to talk about, so I'm just going to talk about a bunch of random stuff till I feel like stopping. :)


First, I just wanted to say that I'm participating in two writing competitions over at dA. I'm pretty excited about them, because if I win, then I can get a feature from both of them, which gets my stuff read by more people. I don't really think that I WILL win, but it's always worth a shot, right? I've also put up a new poem on there recently that I'm really proud of. Well, except the end of it. Still not entirely sure what happened there. But that can be found here. Please read it and give me your opinion. :D


Second, I also wanted share my excitement over some things that I bought from Amazon. I ordered five things about three weeks, and the last one got here today! I'm super excited about it, too. Anyway, the first four things that I ordered are CSI Seasons 1 and 2, F.R.I.E.N.D.S. season 1, and Repo! The Genetic Opera. The last one I'll get to a bit later. It deserves it's own section. Also, if you've never heard of Repo!, or you just haven't been able to see it yet, you should. It's pretty amazing. Here's one of my favorite songs from it: Zydrate Anatomy.


Third, I got to go to a 3OH!3/Red Jumpsuit Apparatus concert on Friday!! I loved it, it was absolutely amazing. I even bought an RJA t-shirt. (3OH!3 didn't have a merch table, for some reason.) It makes it one of the very FEW band t-shirts that I have, which makes me love it that much more. I ALSO was able to acquire autographs on my ticket!!! 3OH!3 autographed the front of my ticket before the show. I am probably one of the ONLY people was able to get an autograph from them, because they didn't come out for autographs and pictures after the concert. The only reason I was able to get one was because my friend Jerel works where the concert was held as a student worker. He had to clean the hospitality room after the bands were done with their interviews, before the concert, and while 3OH!3 was out in the hallway waiting for RJA to finish with their interview, he was able to get my ticket signed for me! THANK YOU JEREL! And after the show, one or two of the members of RJA was/were signing autographs/taking pictures. So on the BACK of my ticket, one of them signed it and then he took a picture with me. XD I'm not entirely sure which one it was, because I don't know the members names and I can't read his autograph. But still! XD (I'm still on a slight emotional high from that, and it's almost 2:30 on Tuesday morning.)


And last, the last item that I got from Amazon is a new shell for my Nintendo DS Lite. It's a transparent blue shell, and I can't wait to finally replace it! I got it because my current one (which is black) has a broken hinge on the right side of it, and the L and R buttons don't work right, and I need them to play my Harry Potter games, since they're GBA games. They're also really helpful (although not entirely necessary) for Mario Kart DS. So I decided to buy a new shell to replace everything so that it'll all work again. And now that's it's come in, I can finally replace it! Well, when I get time, anyway.


Well, that's about all for now. There're probably other things that I could have added in here, but it's late and I'm tired. So... That's all, folks!

Beautiful Liar

Hey guys! I'm back at school now, after having about two weeks to spend with my sister, aunt, uncle, and cousin during the break. Oh, and just to clear up any possible questions, the title is just the name of the song I'm listening to right now. It doesn't have anything to do with anything. Lol. But I feel much better now that I got to spend two weeks with family. So that's a good thing.

Also, Christmas and New Year's has come and gone and the time has come for me to list everything I got. It might not be everything I got, because it's been a while and I don't remember everything. But things that I do remember are as follows: galoshes, Inheritance (the last book in the Eragon books, the Inheritance Cycle), the entire Hunger Games trilogy, The Help (the book, not the movie), Clockwork Angel, a new computer bag, some new make-up (which I've left at home for some reason), a Phineas and Ferb t-shirt, a Harry Potter t-shirt that says I'm a wizard-in-training (even though I'm a girl, I still love it XD), a fuzzy poster, a 2,000 piece puzzle of a castle, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 on DVD. That's all that I can remember right now. Oh, and The Maltese Falcon on DVD.

Also, since I'm back at school now, I should hopefully be able to post more. ...Hopefully. But I'm also in a fraternity, and I'm the Treasurer of it, so I'll be doing some stuff for it. But it shouldn't take too much longer than it already does to do all of that stuff, so I should still be able to post more often than I have in the past. So... yeah. That's that, and I hope all of you have had a wonderful break. :D

Meh.

So...

Today was better than yesterday. Still depressed. Still homesick. But at least I didn't break out into tears in the middle of the day in front of everybody. That would have been bad. But I get to go back down south tomorrow, and I get to stay with my sister for a while, and get to see the rest of my family that I hadn't seen in a while. That should help some. And I'm starting a 100 Themes challenge on my dA account, and writing usually helps me. So maybe that'll help.

Well, I'm off to do more browsing. Later, guys.

Tired

Guys, I am so tired. Of everything.

I'm homesick, I'm depressed, and I don't know why. I'm just tired of everything right now. Monetary issues, Fraternity issues, school, not having my own vehicle, not having a job.... Just everything. I want to go home. I'm ready for Christmas break. I'm ready to see my family and just get away from it all. I want my own place. Like, my own apartment. (Not that I don't love my roommates, because I do). I'm just ready for a break from reality. From all the sickness, migraines, stress. Depression. I can't stand it. And because I'm depressed, it's affecting everything that I'm doing/supposed to be doing. I just..... I haven't been this depressed in a REALLY long time, guys. And I have no idea why it hit me so hard, or so fast. Why it hit me at all, really. I really miss my grandmother, and wish that she was here with me right now. I miss Charlie. I miss how everything used to be. Sometimes I just want it all to go back to how it used to be. Back when I was really little, and didn't really know what depression was yet. I miss my sister. And I saw her a few weeks ago and will see her again over Christmas break. Maybe (hopefully) this weekend.

I don't why it hit me now, or this hard. I just know that it did. And that I want it to go away.

Dear Abby,

Dear Abby, 

I don't really know how to tell you this, our romance is over. I think I realized it when you peed your pants in a clown suit and I saw you pour syrup on my father.

It's raining, it's pouring, I wish I was snoring!

Hey guys! I'm Regina, and this blog will follow my crazy and wonderful life. :D I will frequently mention my two roommates, Abby and Amanda, because they're awesome people and I love them! It's true, I really do love you guys. You're like my sisters. Anyway, Amanda has her own blog on here that I think you should follow. Click it, you know you want to.

Now to explain my blog name. "Life As A Potterhead". Hmm. That should tell you all you need to know right there. Lol. Anyway, I am a Potter nerd. I know almost everything there is to know about this series. Seriously. You can ask me almost any question about it that you want, and I should be able to answer it. But! This blog will not be just about Potter-related things. I just couldn't think of another name for it, and Amanda came up with that one and I thought it fit. -shrug-

The post name was taken form a kids' rhyme: "It's raining, it's snoring, the old man is snoring!" I decided on that one because it looks like it's going to rain outside, and I kinda wish that I was sleeping. It did actually rain for a few minutes, but it's since stopped. But I have a feeling that it will start again soon.

Which brings me to my funny story of the day.  Amanda and I were going out to her car so that we could get the detergent that one of our friends left in it. Her car's name is Stevie, by the way, in case I say that name and you get confused. Well, I asked her if we could walk to Stevie slowly, since I didn't feel like going much faster than the pace of a snail since it is a lazy day today. She said sure and then at the exact same time, we started singing The Lazy Song by Bruno Mars. From the beginning. We got about halfway through that song when the thunder started rumbling. Which made us immediately switch from The Lazy Song to The Thunder Rolls by Garth Brooks. It was pretty awesome. :D

So. There are a couple of websites that I'm gonna give you guys that I think you should check out. ...Most of these probably involve me in some way. Lol.

My deviantart page
Amanda's deviantart page.
Ashley's (my co-author) deviantart page
Mine and Ashley's book series.

You should click them. Because they are awesome. And just something that might turn up in future posts, I have a major case of music ADD. Meaning that I will frequently post music lyrics in my blog posts. They will usually be in all caps. You can continue singing the song in the comments if you want. Or tell me how crazy I am. I don't care. Lol.

Well, I'm off to work on finishing a story. Bye guys! Come back soon!
