Kayla's 3 AM Purchasing High

I like to buy stuff; it's most likely a problem.
I like to buy stuff; if you have any complaints, just file them in my pocket along with some money.
I like to buy stuff, but I won't spend it.
I like to buy stuff; I'm a pathological liar. 
:D


Act 1 (Act 1, see, I'm colorblind friendly!)
So, in this "modern age" of ours, my parents are completely and illogically terrified of my computer. It may have the ability to electrocute you (so does your toaster), but it's not going to bite!
I want to buy things off the internet like a normal internet-addict. 
Like books. And cool shoes from Nomadic State of Mind.
Sometimes my folks'll (shhh, I like fake contractions) allow me to use their credit card, in the case of the shoes.
It still scares them.
Alot.


Act 2 (Act 2) (Act II) <--look at me, getting all fancy and giving credit to the Romans.
Before Borders started dying out like an overheated mammoth, I got the Borders Rewards Plan +, because Borders gives good frickin deals. 40% off all the time? 10% off every (new) purchase?
And then, the motherload- free shipping.
Merely a few months ago, I figured this out and also the "used books" section.
Tempting. Too tempting.
Another parental cave, allowing me to buy a few things (like $1 manga).


Act 3 (Act 3) (Act III) (Act 3) <--homeage to Wingdings. I still don't understand/like you.

Mom bought me a $50 gift card, just to avoid using the credit card.
After buying a book on Buddhism, I found out that Borders... was CLOSING (like WTF, MOFOS?!).
You ruined my deal-making, people-who-buy-data-for-$10! Those effin nook-kobo-fake-book-readers ruined all my nefarious plotting!
At least when my favorite place in the world closes, I get some good sales later one.
For now, I went online, Borders.com... and splurged on all the cheap books on/off my wishlist.
Well, some. Borders would only let me buy 20 books at a time, destroying my urge to buy a tofu-cookbook.
This is my book list, if you wanna read them with me or at least comment and laugh:
(the ones marked with * are suggestions from my Book-Buddie Sam. I think he deserves a good dose of  street cred.)

Cusick Polish Cookery//Marja Ochorowicz-Monatowa --------------------- Act 4 (Act 4) (Act IV) (wingdings malfunction) (gbvfbvgffbj) <-- me smashing my head into the keyboard out of... Frustraction <---  an accidental word I typed in while half asleep. I think I'm keeping it. [Frustration/ Distracted... crossbreed/hybrid] All adding up to the wopping price of: $31.57 (with tax). With all my random books, I feel so boss I almost can't take it.  Mind: Polish Cookery, really, Kayla? Me: I like golumpkies. You have a problem with that? Mind: You're going to get fat.  Me: What?! Correct that!! Mind: Fatter? Me: *flips through Buddhism book*          No violence. Damn.         Can I really do this?! In case you haven't noticed, the font/sizing/fun stuff went wacko.  No idea how to fix it; I'm tired. This post is for you, Ms. Sarah. (This post is for you, Ms. Sarah.) Just in case you're colorblind, too. With that assumption, I apologize for your unfortunate sex-linked trait. Your misfortune is truly rare. <3 With love to her readers, Exhausted-chan (me.)

ARG, YEE MATIES!!

We have another member aboard the Kayla-worship... ship. (ahah, that just sounded so awkward, I love it).
New follower, thank you for making my 3:28 AM special.
For you. Me write. Me say stuffs. Yay! Everybody happy!

Random Ideas That Have Popped Into My Head/ Pissed Me Off

1. Why am I listening to Britany Spears right now? The same three songs... for the last half hour?
Um, I'm switching. Now.
Thank you Airplanes by The Ready Set. My love goes out to you, too.

2. Movies with hidden clips after the credits.
You. Piss me off.
Here I was, in the theatre at the showing of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. The movie just ended; everybody acts as if a fire alarm has been pulled, throwing themselves out the doors, pouring out like a  too thin pancake batter. Nasty, right?
What's worse is that I'm the awkward person standing with my friend, waiting.
Waiting.
After an eternity, I glance at my phone, squinting at the blurred too-small-numbers. That can't be right.
How long have these credits and bloody annoying (epic) pirate background music been rolling.
Do you really have to name every little boy?! Every food caterer to the caterers?!
Oh. Look-y there, the minimum wage cleaners have arrived to fill their bellies with forgotten candies and to sweep the floor. How many people are left again? Ten... maybe?
I wait. We all wait. In anticipation.
The cleaners just want to seem nonchalant, squirming into corners, doing little stationary sweeping motions to appear productive. Camouflaged by their cinema-ordained khakis, they might not even be there, if it wasn't for the awkwardness. I glance inwards, leaning, aiming for a closer look. Is that the lady in my math class who I saw cleaning in the bathrooms earlier?
Ah! She spotted me! Advert eyes, look away, look away!
...
Silence.
Then appears... the dreaded black screen. The moment of truth.
Will there be more, or just disappointment? (I enjoy good ol' pirate music, but not 20 minutes worth. They could have made those credits a minimovie of their own! Staff of the Caribbean: At Pay's End.)
Okay, okay.
I see... I see a girl! The girl! My time has not been wasted!
My mouth hangs wide open, eyes glazing over with pure attentiveness.
....
One minute later.
...
"Is there going to be another movie?"

And so the journey continues and I'll hopefully get to see the lovely face of Jack Sparrow star in another movie. If not, I want a voodoo doll, too. (aha, inside joke to the... evil... cliff hanger/piss off kayla/ blow mind/ thingy.)

3. I'm an unproductive reader.
Sometimes, I don't start/finish a book because:
-It's too beautiful to end.
-I don't want to become a beast engulfed in a book
(like Mockingjay. My father would ask, "W-would you like a snack? A drink?" And I'd growl and spout things such as "I'm bloody reading!" "He died?!" "Let me enjoy this!!" "Graghfghgf!!")
-Get distracted
-Don't want to know if I'll have to wait for a sequel
-It's summer

It's good to know the only thing I've read this summer is manga and The Secret Unicorn (Part One of Four). And I don't plan on reading the others.
Me? Accomplished much?
You betcha.

4. I've been writing a (craptastic) story.
Should I put some of it on here (?), cause I most definitely need an excuse to write. Long term, kayla-only stories aren't exactly my thing.
I get off topic a lot.
Did I mention I like kitties? :3

With love,
The Wendy who almost has a cumulative 30,000 page views. (sorry, watched a 2-hour Peter Pan movie. Because I'm obviously the coolest. Maybe that's why I'm thinking about pirates...)

New Beginnings: Is this the surprise?!

Okay, okay... if anyone has been following me the past year, then they will understand this...
I go in and out of Kayla-Fads weekly, putting everything I have forth into uncharted waters each time.
And then getting bored/putting it off.
(Speaking the obvious.)

Such as
-amvs
-manga drawing
-blogging
-parodies
-games
-crocheting
-doll making....
Just to name a few.

But now, I have a place to put all of my fads:
Phases of a Randomholic
Another blog.
Hoorah?

The VERY TIRED and UNENTHUSIASTIC,
Week-end-o-homework-chan, kayla.

IT'S OFFICAL!!

I actually have a follower.... who I didn't FORCE to follow me!!

Round of applause, please?

*silence*

BE LIKE THAT

Voice: Don't have to tell me twice.

Me: Hey, what's that supposed to mean?!

Voice: That I don't give a rat's ass about what you want me to do.

Me: Rat's ass....?

Voice: Heard your dad say it quite a few times.

Me: That's a bit morbid, isn't it?

Voice: None less than anything else.

Me: .......What are you talking about?!

*giggles* Dead babies....

Voice: Exactly...
----

I did NOT get off topic ONE BIT.
Hehe...

In celebration, I'm posting a few random pictures that will mortify myself and a friend or two.
I can live with that.
---

RANDOM FACT #1:
I'm kinda deathly allergic to giant lilies. Not deathly, but last time they were brought into the house, I was on my knees, eyes red and me all snotty. Kinda sorta dying. Lol. lol?
*ripping off the pollen filled stamen of small ones with glee*
Oh, and there's my mom. Heh.

RANDOM FACT #2

Lately, I keep on spelling America wrong. Sheesh. (Americah)

Does that make me a bad American? lol.

Um, my friend Lauren's face..... "improved" by my camera. Ah, I loff her.

<>

I would like to say that I'm sorry, but I'm a heartless bitch.... YEE HAW!

(I've always wanted to say that)
-------

For once, I think that I look semi okayish in this picture? Do you agree?

(I can't decide which I like better)

<>

I actually kinda like the one below.

*GASP*

MAH BOOBEHS ARE IN THE PIC!!

Well, duh, dumbass. HALF MY TORSO IS BOOB. Sheesh.

Girls, you can totally sympathize with me, yes?

<>

Um, lemme think. Something new I learned.

My cat's claws are weapons of mass destruction. She gave me an owwie!

I was all like "shit, what the hell was that for you rotten..."

Well, I couldn't call her a bitch, she's not a dog.

My 'lil gore.

Like Al Gore. Or however he's spelled. Mwhaha.

I have lots of books to tell you about, but that can always come later.

I leave you with this video. Lol. It amuses me.

Night my loffs!

New Stuff = Happiness

Okay, just wanting to ask-- do you guys (readers, *cough*) prefer more frequent but shorter posts, rarer mega-posts, or are neutral either way?
Tell me so that I can better serve YOU! (haha.... ha...)
No. I am not your personal slave.
Yet. Depends if you can make sushi and entertain me- I feat few can accomplish.
Not really. Just hand me a piece of twine.

Adorable, yes?
Yeah.... that's not me. Remember that mutant from a few posts ago? Mm, hm, now that's me.

----
Okay, I REAAAALLY need to stop my hand spasms. I pushed some weird button on my key board [BUTTERFINGERS] ... >sho tasteh<  and it made my screen FILL with the site I had up. Which was this one. And that freaked me out, so I pressed random keys on the board in kayla confusion. My loffs, I almost lost all of this beautiful work. This.... this masterpiece. This.....
Blasphemy, really.

--------
MORE BOOKS FOR YOU AVID (or nor so avid) READERS!!
....
And these are ones I've actually finished!!!

Voice: Good job. I clap for you.

Me: Are you... Are you serious?!

Voice: Haha. No.

Me: You were just yanking my chain!

Voice: Yanking.... your what?

Me: My chain. You're yanking it.

Voice: Oh. Be that way.

Me: It's okay, voicey. My fatherly figure (WowLaurenWow, thanks for the ref.) thought I didn't know what that meant.

Voice: Me either, what with your IQ score and all----

Me: I thought... I told you never to speak of that again...

Voice: *whispers* gooooose........eeeeeegg.......

Here are da books (skip as you please):
The Vampire Diaries
If I Should Die Before I Wake
-----

I'll start at the bottom.

Being of Polish decent, I find fiction books on the holocaust extremely interesting.
If I Should Die Before I Wake by  Han Nolan is an example of a book like that. Also entertaining because I read it on the nine hour car ride to New Orleans.
In a nutshell.... (don't worry, no spoilers. I'm just cruel like that you lazy peoplez)
Enter Hilary, a sixteen year old neo-nazi living in the subburbs.
Well, before she was in a motorcycle accident that practically killed her.
Practically. While Hilary's body battles against the odds in a Jewish hospital (Irrrrony) not far from her wreck, her mind is far away in Poland.
There, she is no longer herself- she's Chana.
The Jew.
~
I give this booook.... 8/10 or 9/10.
The ending was a bit odd, but it was truly a touching story. *dabs at eyes*
If you're not into this sort of novel, you may be a bit bored-- though I found it engaging.
Still, the ending was weird. O.O
---------------------------
Book Three of The Vampire Diaries by L. J. Smith

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love L.J. Smith's fantasy books- especially her Night World series which is by far one of my favorites!

This book was just downright disappointing.

Books one and two were phenomenal pageturners that I couldn't put down.
No, really. I blame the superglue.
And about the t.v. show- I've heard it's great, although the first episode was a major turnoff.
Like seriously, ELENA'S HAIR IS BLOND!!! Throughout the entire series, they mention "halo of golden hair" "blond" "angelic blond" "yellow wheat" .... those aren't the exact ones--- but you get my point. They mention it. Alot. I like my minor details.
And the other cast is pretty dang (f-bombsss awaayyy) - up.
Stephan is...... somehow unattractive. Kinda ape-ish.
And Damon. Well, he's an exception. They didn't portray him too terribly. Reminds me of the fawn dude in Narnia.


Okay, onto the story.
There's vampires. Yes, I get that.
What I don't get is why they randomly added a slew of kitsune-(japanese shapeshifting fox demon/spirits/ creatures. For reference- Nine-tails, the Pokemon. More tails = more power.)
I like japanese folklore, yes.
When it enters my beloved vampire books unsuccessfully and randomly- not so much. Especially when it alters the story.
The first bit of the third book was wonderful. The rest? Not so much.
Rating: Around 5.5/10. It was one of those WTF kind of books.

Soon to come:

Willow by Julia Hoban

Unwind by Neal Shusterman

(a continuation of) Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
------------
Oh, and if you get the chance to:
Listen to Mum.
No, not your mother, although she might like that from time to time.
The Band/ group/ person. I don't know- Alaina gave me the tracks.
Try the album- "Finally We Are No One"
I love it!
Your closet buddy,
KAILAH-CHAAN!

I Really Don't Know

(refer back to Leekatude)
When I have kids- or grandchildren-
I want them to find my stuff years from now and be like:

X "What the f*ck is this?"

Y "I think it's a virus."

Z "No, no, it's most obviously a congested nose."

Y "Like allergies?! How?!"
Z "Well... The skin is white... green...."

X I read a tag aloud. "Leek."

Y "Shiz..."
........

LET'S HAVE AN AFFAIR!

Z "Wooo! Booze!!"

(SS if you're wondering... XYZ Affair... You know.... Nevermind)
