Flourescent Funeral

Day... Oh, whatever

2010-04-13T01:20:00.001-04:00

So, April's here, halfway gone, whatever. XD

I can finally eat chocolate again. I wish we had more around. But... you know, I have no free time anyway.
I'm gonna go pass out for six hours. Goodnight!

Lost Track of the Days...

2010-03-21T22:27:00.001-04:00

I've lost track of the days! But it's getting closer and closer to the end!!!

I've been so amazingly busy. Grease is in two and a half weeks, midterms are this week, etc., etc.!!!

I ate more sugar cookies today, and some strawberry POCKY! And now, for English homework.

Day Something-or-Other

2010-02-13T22:11:00.002-05:00

Okay, so no chocolate for a year just isn't as exciting as I hoped. It's kinda boring now.

Therefore, I'm gonna change it to 'No chocolate until the end of Lent.' It's not that I need an easier target to reach, but that people will die if I get bored.
So, yeah. Lent's end it is.

I ate Cherry Twizzlers today. They're not as good, but still tasty. I also had some Cottage Cheese, which was an odd choice for breakfast... But that's okay.

I played World of Warcraft today instead of doing my homework. But yesterday I virtually dissected a frog's heart, so it's all good. :D

Day... Thirty-Eight

2010-02-07T21:50:00.002-05:00

It has been quite some time since I last got around to posting.

School, homework, and practice all together have kept me quite busy. But I still find time for Twizzlers and Sugar Cookies. Just not... you know... sleep.

I finished playing my most recent video game, so now I have all my OTHER old ones to complete. It'll be interesting. Since I no longer have free time.

I am slowly dying on the inside. I'm all alone this semester except for in my last class. I need to start carrying around a little pink puppy doll and talk to it.

Day Thirty

2010-01-30T19:13:00.002-05:00

I have moar sugar cookies!

Yeah. I haven't posted much- things've been crazy. Practice, homework... The works.

Anyway, I'm still playing a video game. I need to get back to it. Because it's awesome.

It snowed today! I hope that means I'm out of school Monday... Hopefully... XP

Day Twenty-three

2010-01-23T00:01:00.003-05:00

Well, I've survived three weeks...
Didn't think I'd make it...

Things are getting even weirder now- Valentine's Day is starting to rear its head...

So I'm not panicking anymore, by the way. I'm too exhausted right now to panic. I'll panic tomorrow.

I really wanted to meet up with Lauren and Cody for lunch at Milano's-Italian-something-something-with-curly-fries-and-cheese-sticks... But it didn't work out, it seems.
I shall receive... woah, does something special happen the 23rd? Something... something...

Dude, nevermind. I'm OUT of it.

Day Twenty-Three

2010-01-21T00:34:00.004-05:00

Oh, God, I'm dying on the inside.

First day of the new term was yesterday. I swear, I'm going to lose it. I'm in three different Honors classes, and when they don't have me surrounded by idiots, they have me isolated and awkward.
My teachers have already given me 30+ math computations, an essay, a translation to do, and sentences to write. This homework's insane.
Lauren and Cody are only in my final block class of the day, so that's... gonna suck. Badly.
Do you hear me, whoever's out there?! I'm gonna go crazy!
I also have JCC (Japanese Culture Club) to preside over, the play to participate in, and acne to quell! Someone SAVE ME! Chocolate can't even help me now!!!

Day Seventeen!!!

2010-01-17T00:22:00.003-05:00

Already the seventeenth day! Almost three weeks in, and going strong.

I have a secret weapon now, in case I want ice cream: strawberry fruit bars! They shall save me from my fudge longing.

Today I vacuumed. It's not much, really.
I also ate Twizzlers~!

I have also been given an awesome strawberry shortcake cupcake from the glorious Cake Lady! She's my town's baker. She makes awesome stuff.

Anywhos, I return to school again in three days... It's saddening.
Lauren (my ginger friend with no soul) gave me some awesome-tasting gum the other day. It was strawberry-lemon or something. Some Trident flavour. It actually tasted REAAAAALLY good. And I hate gum. But it kept me from being too hungry.
Not that I ate it. 'Cause I didn't. No.
You're wrong.
Shut up.

Day FOURTEEN!

2010-01-14T21:34:00.002-05:00

Sweet! Fourteen's my favourite number!

I'm watching Office Space. XD

GUESS WHO MADE PUUUUUUDDIIIIIIIIING!

Well... Instant pudding.

VANILLA pudding.

It tastes heavenly.

Most of today was spent just doing laundry and watching Honey & Clover, a great romantic comedy anime about five kids at an art college in Tokyo. I also ate a parfait this morning. It was Apples, Creme, and delightful.

Now I'm gonna go play a PS2 game... XP

Day Thirteen

2010-01-13T21:09:00.004-05:00

It's been a good few days since I posted. Things've been pretty hectic.

I gots Twizzlers! And some marshmallows. They are quite good. I've also eaten about half a box of little Rice Krispie Treats.

Today, I went bowling for the first time in years! I failed. Badly. :D But that's why I'm cool! Cody () and Lauren went with me.

Later though, after I got home, it seemed like everything fell apart! Everyone was all freaking out over their roles in the upcoming play. I know I'm going to be Mrs. Lynch, an English teacher. The play's Grease. But, yeah- they're either all depressed and crap because they don't know what part they have, or they're outraged that they're not one of the leading pair. I just don't get it- it's community theatre... Ah, well. I get to beat them all up as the principal anyways.

Now I'm watching Hamlet. It's the 1948 version, by Laurence Olivier. Suuuuuch a good movie... My favourite, actually.

I ate popcorn, too. I LOVE popcorn...

So, yes- exams have ended! Today was the start of my week-long break. I love it so.

OH CRAP I MISSED A DAY.

2010-01-10T12:25:00.004-05:00

So, yeah- I wasn't able to post yesterday because of some cookie errors with the blog.

Speaking of cookies, my mother decided to shred the remainder of my soul by bringing from the freezer a small tupperware container filled with a bunch of Cookie Cups.
Cookie Cups were our Christmas treats made by my father. See, what you do is bake chocolate-chip cookies, then make them each cup around a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. It's heavenly.

I went on the WalMart raid today! Mission accomplished! I got TastyCakes vanilla cupcakes, and some Little Debbie Valentine's Day heart cakes. Also on the list of newly-acquired, non-chocolate snacks are a few parfaits. Pears & Creme and Apples & Creme. They seem very promising.

I also bought some shoes, but THOSE are not for eating. I found them right next to the dog food aisles, so now I understand why my own dog failed to discern between the two.

All the talking advertisement TVs in WalMart scare me. They're at, like, every aisle intersection. And they're SAYING things to me.
... I did like the Michael Jackson "Beat It" music video randomly playing on the lotion aisle, though. Even if it did make me feel awkward to watch the King of Pop while next to tampons and deodorant.

To boost my vitamin intake, I also got some celery. (I, uh, THINK that helps with vitamins. Maybe. Anyways...)

My audition was completed yesterday! I sang "Think of Me" from Phantom of the Opera, by Andrew Lloyd Webber. I believe someone else also sang the same song... But I was unaware of it until after I had chosen it. I plead the Fifth... And the Second. Just in case.

OHMYGAWD I HAVE A CIVICS AND ECONOMICS END-OF-COURSE TEST TOMORROW! AAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Day Eight. Ick.

2010-01-08T22:07:00.002-05:00

I hate the number 8...

Anyways, I read a buncha Norse myths today. It was quite epic. Loki is definitely my favourite Norse God. The Trickster, the Sly One, the Father of Lies... He's so epic. XD

I have a mission tomorrow. It comprises of a raid. A chocolate-free snack raid. On Wal-Mart.

I will also acquire a new shoe there, since my dog ate one of mine today...
Eh, I mean, I'll get a new PAIR of shoes. Yeah. That makes more sense.

ONE WEEK!!!

2010-01-07T22:46:00.003-05:00

I've lasted an entire week without chocolate!!! I thought it might've been... you know. Impossible or something. But I did it!

I have a Latin exam tomorrow!!! And maybe SNOW!

No snow yet, though. I'm not very hopeful.

Hamlet is the best thing ever. Except for Asians.

And now for something completely different.

I think I may... end up trying out for Grease. Not that I'll get anywhere with it, but... you know.
My biggest hesitation has been my father's involvement, because I know people would think favouritism would play a role in my casting. He is, after all, the music director. He has assured me, however, that he has no input in casting... I feel better about that.
As for my singing... Well, I'm not saying anything. I've been thinking it over for quite some time though -ever since I heard of the auditions-, and I was hoping to sing a certain song... But someone else is already singing it.
I kind of... want to sing it anyway, though.
Yeah... I really do.

Day Six

2010-01-06T21:01:00.002-05:00

The finals are coming! The finals are coming!

My exams start tomorrow!!!

Let's just say I haven't exactly studied much. I never do... Not that I do poorly, however!

Anyways, I haz moar Wheat Thinssss!!!

I ate all the licorice, though... Oh, well.

Awaaaay!

The Fifth Day

2010-01-05T20:26:00.003-05:00

Things seem to be getting easier and easier... Except for the upcoming exams. Oh well.

I've been eating sandwiches at lunch with peanut butter and marshmallow fluff. They're amazing.

I must now go play video games and deny any existence of a social life!

The Fourth Day...

2010-01-04T21:48:00.002-05:00

I have survived the fourth day without chocolate, along with the first Monday without chocolate.

I already feel kind of... like I have more freedom. The withdrawal isn't quite as painful as it was at first. I expect it's rallying its forces for a second bout.

The sugar cookies have been devoured. None live to spread word of their new threat. Now I have some STRAWBERRY licorice. I lurve strawberries. My favourite food was chocolate-covered strawberries... Now it's... uh... Crap.
Gotta work on that.

Day Threeee

2010-01-03T23:40:00.002-05:00

Well, I've made it to Day Three.

OH CRAP I JUST DELETED LIKE THREE PARAGRAPHS. EFF.

Anyways...

So yeah. I ate a doughnut this morning by performing surgery on it to remove the chocolate frosting glaze it had on it. In retrospection, it's sort of pathetic. Saddening, really.

I did an eleven-page-long packet of study review for an upcoming exam I have. It was done within seven hours, so I'm pretty happy. Except for still having one blank left... "Mandates" isn't a question...

I got ahold of frosted sugar cookies today. Chocolate's not even in the picture. It made me so happy. It also gladdened the now-empty Wheat Thins box next to me.

Gah. Posting should be done earlier, which means I should start remembering this earlier. It would REALLY be useful. Considering I'm really really tired.

Who am I talking to? Ha. Myself. Of course! Just like the good old days...

Well, goodnight!

OHMAGAWD I'M DYING

2010-01-02T23:49:00.002-05:00

I REALIZED TODAY THAT SINCE I CAN'T EAT CHOCOLATE, THERE'S NOTHING TO EAT IN THIS HOUSE EXCEPT FOR HARD-BOILED EGGS AND SLICES OF CRAFT CHEESE. OHMAGAWD. OHMAGAWD. I'M DYING ON THE INSIDE. OHMAGAWD.

HOLY CRAP. GAH. I'M FLIPPIN' OUT.

Okay. Okay, I can do this. I'm okay. I can survive on eggs, cheese, and Wheat Thins.

Whew.

... Gonna need some new Poptarts, though...

First Foundations: Why I'm Blogging

2010-01-01T00:40:00.000-05:00

This is my first post. Day one out of three hundred sixty-five.
I'm uncertain about how much I'll end up saying here or if anything I say will be worth mentioning. Regardless, you're going to read it.
So, why have I made this blog? It all traces back to an integral part of my life: CHOCOLATE.
I. Adore. Chocolate.
But, I love it too much. I'm far too close to it, and I eat way too much of it. It has nothing to do with my weight, my shape, my health, or my soul. <-- I've already lost the last one there.
I simply want to prove that I have enough willpower to survive an entire year without my favourite food. My goal is to prove the strength of my determination, and this is how I'm doing it. There are way too many weak women in society these days. You'll read all about them in my future rants.
As soon as I get a better grip on how this site works, I'll be adding subdivisions for different topics. There may end up being a lot of topics: my attention span sometimes runs shorter than my typing energy.

Consider yourself warned about... well, me.
Happy New Year.
