The many faces of bBj

Hi. I'm billyBobjoe for those of you newer readers. I do weird things sometimes.

Sometimes I look redweebulous.
Sometimes I try to look cute.

Sometimes I'm a rainbow unicorn.

Sometimes my hair doesn't behave.

Sometimes I'm in shock. See? I have a blanket!

Sometimes I look creepily like David Tennent.
But I always do odd things.


Yes, this was just an excuse for the selfies, but they are funny and entertaining at least! And no duckfaces! How do you like the skelly face? I rather liked it. Totally on a whim this evening. Yes, my brain goes, "well, all we're doing in watching Doctor Who, so why not?" Love you people! No more selfie posts for a while.

*wink*

I'm out, billyBobjoe

Well that was that! Dey be so chuuuute! I love typical girl hangouts with their lame movies, cheese dip, makeup, and photoshoots. Oh, by the way, this is Katie! She's my baby bug friend.
Which is your favorite?

hugs, light bulbs, and books

I feel like the blogosphere is dead. I mean, I know I'm not helping any by only posting on whims and that there are a few of y'all still blogging away. Maybe I need to follow more people. We're all just getting older and getting busier with various and sundry things.

This is how I am about hugs. I need to make these coupons.
 I think I might make it to Summer 2013. Just maybe. My health has been better, if you don't count getting sick AGAIN! Geeze. Big family problems include everyone getting sick and sharing it. I'm caught up on homework, but it's not over yet. Maybe I'll head to the library to finish up some stuff. I love studying at the library. I can focus there, and don't feel so closed in and stuck.

So here's something funny. I took all the books off of my shelves to dust them and reorganize because I enjoy that sort of stuff. So all the books are on my floor in piles, and I still haven't gotten around to putting them away. I went to put them away last night, but saw that the shelves had gotten dusty again! Now I have to procrastinate a little bit more.... Haha, nah, maybe I'll put them away today! Hey, I'll take a picture to show you guys when I'm finished.

Remember the super duper surprise I was gonna post about?? So, sorry about that, but it was a vlog with my best friend, but the video won't upload so y'all might not be able to see it. Shame on me.

I read Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief on a whim a while back. I read it and enjoyed it a lot! It was well done and fun! Naturally, it was a little under my reading level, but I don't mind that. I watched the film a couple evenings ago and absolutely loved it! I was a little skeptical at first because of all the material to cover and special effects that would be necessary, but I was pleasantly surprised. Usually I'm judging effects and actors and humor and pacing the whole way through a film when I know the ending, but I wasn't! I enjoyed the whole thing. The actors were all top-notch...Logan Lerman is precious too. The makers made the film enjoyable for older audiences without adding unnecessary crude humor or anything. I highly recommend it and can't wait for Sea of Monsters! I'll have to read the rest of the series!

I found this online and loved it. It shows how forward thinking is often attacked. Do you ever feel like the only light bulb in a world of candles?

I love Sherlock because it is so intelligent and marvelously paced with good action...who am I kidding? Lies! All lies! I LOVE Benedict Cumberbatch! I can't wait for the next Star Trek! All these girls are about to become die-hard Trekkies. lol
Well, that's a lovely note to end on. Off I go to do important things!

Babel and Sherlock

Oh my gosh! I'm one composition away from being caught up in school for the first time this semestre! It's such a freeing thought. I can't wait for summer though.

Tonight I'm going to the State Championship game that a lot of my guy friends are playing/going to win in! We're gonna have the hugest, most loud and awesome, student section ever!

I'm listening to Babel by Mumford & Sons for the first time. It is so good. I love the sound of their songs in my ears. I never intentionally learned the words to the songs on Sigh No More, just listened to it on repeat while doing math. That's probably how I learn lyrics best anyway.

While I am not in the slightest Catholic, I gave up something for Lent this year. Guess what. Yep, Temple Run 2. Isn't that awful?? That just goes to show you how addicted I am! So, no more TR2 for me for a while. People think it's funny, but it really was taking up a lot of my time.

My big sister Cadenza is coming home tomorrow! She's been nannying MKs for 6 months and I miss her like crazy. Hopefully all her international flights and stuff work out well.

And guess what! Oh mi gaaaash! *prepare for epic fangirling* SHERLOCK! It is perfect and wonderful and perfect. And Benedict Cumperfection? I mean, Cumberbatch. *sigh* And now we get more Hobbit and Star Trek, so that's good. I'm going to die, just look at him!

This is him and Martin Freeman being amazing and classy. They have great chemistry too.

This is his Everyone Be Quiet So I Can Deduce face. He's so darn irritable, but just like the stories.

This is his I Just Deduced Something So Marvelous That You Never Would've Gotten It On Your Own face.

So that's the update! Also, be warned, that was MINOR fangirling. I was literally ASDFGHJKL-ing the other day. :D

PS - And now that I've finished writing this I am officially finished with school! kthxbi

minimalist posters (part 5)

Aren't you excited? I'm finally getting around to posting some more of these. Now we're at the fun category of Animated films. Yes, some of these posters naturally belong in several categories, but I chose the ones I did for a reason. These are all blue too!

 The clock with no numbers serves the purpose of the ambiguity of Wonderland and showing the main symbols. I love it.

This is beautiful, like the film, but simply shows Toothless as a dragon, with none of the personality, which is a good idea so you'll be surprised.

Simple like the concept of the movie. It doesn't focus on the music, but on the magic, which is what the music is anyway.

And now...Miyazaki. Nothing left to say, except that I love the watercolor style for the sky.

Perfection. There are so many things that Spirited Away can be recognized by, but this is perfect.

I hope you like these as much as I do. Have you seen them all? Which was your favorite? By the way, the background for the Alice one is the color that I want the bottom half of my hair to be when I grow it out.

One more post of random ones, then Nolan films is the schedule.

dance, drama, and derping

Y'all, I just need a nap with a billion blankets or a Disney movie...or both. Of course I'm blogging; I have so much homework to do! That's the way it goes.

Remember the surprise I said was coming? It isn't exactly working. I'll try to work on that.

I discovered this beautiful thing called a recumbent bike, that lets me read while working on getting killer legs! It is so wonderful. Speaking of legs, guess what! I've been wanting to take dance lessons for ten years, ever since I saw a clogging exhibition. I haven't been allowed to to various reasons. It cost too much, or we were too busy, or the costumes would be too immodest, or whatever else. My parents are finally signing me for ballet and tap! I know I'm a late bloomer, but I won't let the fact that I'll be in classes with little kids or adults get to me. This will be my motivation to get stronger and eat more. I'm super excited!

I also got the role I wanted in my high school play. I get to be the Sour Kangaroo in Seussical! Have you seen Horton Hears a Who? I'm the evil, purple kangaroo. And I get to belt and be sassy. So that'll be a ton of fun.

My sister is coming home from India soon! I miss her so much, but I'll have to move out of her room. It's been six months.

Spring break, come quickly! I might pull all my hair out before then, and I don't want that to happen. I just keep telling myself that I'm almost finished with my hardest year of school. It's not even as hard as last year, but last year I wasn't practically an invalid!

One of my goals was to get 50 followers on Twitter this year....and I'm already there. So that's good!

One more thing. I made a couple of derpy videos on my sister's iPod touch. They are really funny! Should I create a YouTube channel and post them? The idea is that I'm this weird reporter for The Wild World of Nature, a goofy nature show.

It feels so good to just document things. This isn't a really cute post and doesn't have pictures or anything, but it does keep y'all updated. Actually, this month I've had more views than ever before, so that's encouraging!

Black and White

A bunch of things have been cooking up in the old noggin, some of which are going to go into this post. Naturally. Sorry, if it's rambly, but I promise it's all connected.

Anyway, I'm been thinking about the importance of truth and perfect honestly. I'm also reading Insurgent, which is a dystopian with a government composed of "factions", one of which being Candor. If you know your vocabulary and roots and stuff, you probably guessed that that had to do with Truth. It does, and I would recommend Divergent and Insurgent, the sequel. The colors and symbols for Candor are black and white and scales, respectively, causing me to think about black and white. And that's it. That wasn't as long or important or interesting as I had hoped! haha, a) I believe in Truth b) I'm reading Insurgent c) here are some b&w pictures!
I just love that this looks like sacrifice and dedication.

Makes me want to dance more than I already do. And by dance I mean learn how. I love it, but can't.



 Don't need words for Batman and a dragon.



I just love this. I don't even know why, maybe it is the metaphor of surviving. The paint drips almost suggest that it's not real.
Joe agrees













Joe, you are too darn precious and everything beautiful and wonderful.


I firmly believe that that picture was what photography was invented for. Talk about capturing a moment. 



















Dreams come true. Nightmares are dreams too.

I hope you enjoyed this. I sure did. I love "scrapbook" posts, as I call them. It turns out that Blogger hates me and won't put the pictures where I wanted them, so this'll have to do. A word is worth a thousand pictures and a picture worth a thousand words. I try to weave them together. "Weave" is always used for words and pictures... I try to jimmy them together. No? I think so.

I'd love your thoughts.

Listening to Can't Buy Me Love by House of Heroes.

Love you people, thanks for the inspiration.

With a flourish, bBj

pachyderms

I'm a lot like an elephant. I guess, in only one way though. I have a super good memory! If you tell me to turn right, I'll look at you and say, "which way??", but if you mention that you once liked such-and-such four years ago, I will remember that forever. It's a little creepy. Ask the people I text! Also, elephants are just cute! They can be old and wise looking or whimsical, like owls.






 Gah, so much love for elephants! A friend of mine actually gave me an elephant stuffed animal for Christmas and her name is Queen Peanut Mousie. I call her "you cute little fuzzy precious cuddly squeezy huggable thing you" for short. I'll get a picture on here of her later.

frozen fatty part of unhomogenized milk

 So, I went back to school this week, after completing 3 weeks of chemistry and the midterm in two days. *Ahem* Saturday and Sunday. Enough of that.

I think I start too many posts with "so". Not a problem actually.

So this is going to be a topical post about ice cream. That sounds so dumb. But really! I love ice cream! Who doesn't? I was missing summer today, and saw a lot of interesting photos on teh interwebz that had to do with ice cream, so here goes.





It worked! I'm using Firefox by the way, in case you were having the same problem. Now doesn't that make you wish for summer? I love how different each one is.

2013

Blogger is being weird and not letting me upload pictures, which is bad because I almost always have something to show you guys. I have a few topical posts planned and a super exciting surprise anyway!

How about an "I'm excited for 2013" post then? I'm so late too.

*goes to read journal post form Dec. 31* What?? It's not there! Um, for some reason, my computer (BAD computer!) decided that my hopes/goals/wishes for 2013 were not worth saving. I'm sad. I'll wing it. The three catagories are mixed together.
