HEY everyone.
I just got a premium membership... hopefully that 4.95 will motivate me to keep making stuff.
Anyway, I need some input on a new deviantID. People keep assuming that Tightineyes has a chinky connotation and I don't want to keep explaining that its based on portrait theory.

SO. Vote? Or give me more ideas :D
1. lakernel/lekernel : This is a reference to my school... cornell. LOL. Corn is cool though.
2. themaize : Because corn is made from maize
3. thevegetable : Because greens are important
4. redhankie/theredhankie : Its based on a proof about how # irrationals > rationals. Its pretty :')

I'm not sure about the first three because they sound dangerously close to The Oatmeal. They're all available though. Please let me know!

Also, if there are awesome privileges of premium membership that I HAVE TO take advantage of during this month, tell me about them yo. I suck at html, so don't involve that please ahaheahihafeif. Its gonna be a good ride.

Tagged by :iconequestrian-equine:

1) You must post these rules.
2) I'm a rebel. The other rules are gone forever.

10 Facts: 

1) Running saved my life. 
2) I'm enjoy protein bars and Fiber One to a dangerously unreasonably degree.
3) I love my mum. 
4) I like to think of my dad as God, but also Steph <3
5) I have TWO rules. 1. Do not believe in love. 2. Or boys.
6) For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. Romans 7:15
7) I am sick, but you probably are too.
8) Poetry is the most important life force.
9) I write when it hurts.
10) Secretly, I believe in soul mates.

Tagged Questions:

1. Given the choice between being able to fly or being invisible, which would you choose and why?
To be invinsible. I know how to fly. Have you ever floated on the courts and bounced across the sidewalks, feeling wonderflly free and so friggin happy to be alive? 

2.  Which anime would you choose to be in for a day, and why?
Avatar the Last Airbender. I want to meet the cabbage man. And Toph.

3. Where do you go when you sleep?
I fall asleep on the floor a lot more than I fall asleep on the bed. But if you want to go on a deeper level, when I'm asleep to life, dead to life, its dark in there. 

4. You miraculously grow an afro that you can't get rid of! First thing you do with new afro?!
Snapchat pls

5. You find a time machine. What does it look like, and what do you do? You can only have three trips (round trips, haha).
It looks like a book, because that's what they are. I would read Paper Towns, Looking for Alaska, and Will Grayson Will Grayson, because these were the stories that gave me hope when I didn't want to be alive.

6. One thing you did in the past day that you wish you'd done differently. Can be anything, even something small.
I could have paid attention in Physics C, but let's be honest, there's nothing to regret here.

7. Something you wish you had more of.
Self control and unrelenting love.

8. A food you'd like to try.
Fondue, all the dim sum, tacos, gourmet Ithaca restaurant styles, everything that I've always been afraid of.

9. Five bucket list items?!
a) Write, and to be recognized for it
b) Draw, and to be recognized for it
c) Make vids/programs, and to be recognized for it
d) Attend VidCon, Playlist Live, possibly on a roadtrip 
e) Say goodbye to everyone in the most beautiful way possible. To never forget and to never stop loving. To remember where I came from, and to be infinitely grateful for God's trials and blessings.

10. Someone has altered time so that you no longer live in the world you do today, but you've got a little bit before the changes reorient your life entirely. Who do you say goodbye to first? And who do you say thank you to?

Goodbyes and thank yous to all of the following:
Calc teacher, Art history teacher, Art teacher
Steph, Ailynna, Coach
Lauren, Chelsea, Grace, Christine, Vivian
My church
And one or two guys. Depends on how much I follow rule number 2.
Mum

Friends, there have been many bright and stormy days, but...
in my younger and more vulnerable years, my father once told me that writing would be worth it.

the literary references ehehhehhehhehhehhhehehhehehhehhehhehhehhe I'm not bitter because Mr. Pearson gave me an A in AP Lang yesss we're on a roller coaster that only goes up.

Submission to the demain of deviantart etiquette and friendship to post these RULES:
1. You must post these rules.
2. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and create ten new questions for the people you tag to answer.
3. You have to choose 10 people to tag and post their icons in your journal.
4. Go to their pages and tell them you have tagged him/her.
5. No tag backs.
6. No 'nonsense' in the tagging section about "You are tagged if you're reading this." You legitimately have to tag 10 people!
7. Tell the person who tagged you if you did it. 

Steph's questions:
1. If you had telekinesis, what is the first thing you'd do? Be creative ♥ <-- thank you for the heart. everyone needs a heart once in a while <3
Well this is kind of a Babylonian power, where people just shouldn't know. The whole point of making friendships and taking education seriously is to be able to understand the world in "all of its baffling complexity" (John Green, Butler University commencement address). Telekinesis just feels like cheating. I dunno. I wouldn't really appreciate someone snooping in my Gmail or Facebook, let alone my head. I guess I'd find a willing victim and we could play mind games to test theories.

2. Your teeth are falling out. How do you feel and what do you do?! totally wasn't my nightmare last night.... *laughs nervously*
SMOOTHIES ALL DAY EVERY DAY.
Seriously. A diet consisted of protein shakes, boba tea, and chicken soup somehow doesn't sound that bad.

3. You're hanging off the edge of a building by a few fingers -- last thoughts?
I should have done more finger pushups.
And then calculate the speed at which I will make impact with the ground. vf = vi + at. 

4. Would you like to get a cookie with me? what are you talking about, that's not from Despicable Me 2...haha...ha....
DESPICABLE ME 2 IS THE BEST. ITS BETTER THAT DESPICABLE ME. IT IS BEAUTIFUL AND CUTE AND DYNAMIC AND WONDERFUL except when Gru dresses as a fairy. That was just gross. Come to think of it, Macho Nacho Mexico guy was kinda gross too.

5. Do you like tofu? any definition, be it literal or inside joke, is applicable.
My cousin told me this Chinese belief. Tofu = boobs. For skinny girls, there is bean curd.
But I like Tof(u)er. He's much less strung out then the other coaches...

6. How long is your hair?</strike>
It is like a nest of the sea, rippling in the chimes of the urchins. It drops upon the curves of my thoracic vertabrae, whispering with the hum of the crickets, "I do not know."

7. You are standing on a giant flying airship. First thing you do?
I'm standing? On a flying airship? I guess I would sit down.

8. Your spouse is living in a foreign country and you miss him/her. People keep asking "When is _____ coming?!". DO YOU GET DEPRESSED OR ARE YOU OPTIMISTIC?
sorry pikachu it just came to mind when I was talking to Ryan and Lionfu.
The best way is not to feel anything. But since that isn't possible, of course I would be sad. But I would paint pictures and send him emails every day of tumblr gifs and loving messages so that he would be seduced by cuteness to come back home.

9. Drawers or hangers?
Drawers for shorts, underwear, that kinda thing.
Shoeboxes for socks.
Regular floors for shoes.
Hangers for shirts, jeans.
Shelf for sweaters. Lol.

10. Lemonade or ice tea?
Ice tea. Caffeine is necessary at all costs.

I WAS COERCED TO POST THESE RULEEEEEEEEEEEES
The rules:
★. You must post these rules.
★. Each person must post 10 things about themselves on their journal.
★. Answer the questions the tagger set for you, and create ten (10) new questions for the people you tag to answer.
★. You have to choose 10 people to tag and post their icons on your journal.
★. Go to their pages and tell them you have tagged her/him.
★. No tag backs.
★. No nonsense in the tagging section about "you are tagged if you're reading this."
★. You have to tag 10 people.

The 10 things about myself, because rules
1.  I think that suffering is part of the human condition, and it is on a frequent basis, a just and necessary teacher. So much pain, so little gain, still worth every time someone calls me insane...
2. An excerpt from my scholarship essay.... lol.........
I'm not particularly driven by ambition or a fervent enthusiasm for any one subject, even though I take small joys in learning different subjects and improving in everything I love doing. I don't take advantage of today's political efficacy, and I don't even know if I used "efficacy" correctly, and I probably won't ever go back to understand it. Its too full of bad connotations from AP Gov. This is what I like about myself - I am silent. My silence hasn't always been golden, and more often than not it has been silver, enforced by several wrappings of duct tape, but I believe that there is nothing inherently wrong with silence. There's no need to fill it. The idea is that I should only speak or  at when what I have to say or do is more beautiful than silence. I run five miles every day in silence. I despise filling myself with the music everyone worships today, when the brush of the trees and the whispers of the fields present, live, a song much less constructed, yet much more realistic, much more lovely.
3. I like making food if everyone else eats it.
4. Running is harder :(
5. I pee a lot, but Coach Schild said that its just a product of my good health. It better be. Just as my sweat better be.
6. When I'm sad, I eat dinner leftovers and watch Ellen and Vlogbrothers on Youtube.
7. When I'm sadder, I watch Ellen and Vlogbrothers in bed and never wear my retainer.
8. So basically that's what I do every day.
9. When my parent's talk about setting me up for college and lecture me about stupid things like SATs like WHY who even studies like ol' Chinese students who CAREs who CAREs yarg the emphasis on needless books so much raging....
...when that happens, I get sad too.
10. Oh yeah colleges. I kinda like essays. And my parents will never be around to make me wear too much clothing or tell me to study more. ATM I'm looking at Berkeley, UIUC, Carnegie, and Rice, and the big guys want me to look at Cornell and Dartmouth ajfdakljfkladjflkdfjfd so hard.

WOBBUFFET'S Qs i stll don't know how to bold and italicize hehe so I just CAPITALIZE
1. Favorite beverage?
WATER <3 It has saved me multitudes. Otherwise, I bring tea to school sometimes.
If it weren't for health, Starbucks' Green Tea Latte is excellent. It's green, but its exceeeeeeeeeeeeeellent.

2. If you had to choose between having a butler and having a lifetime supply of your favorite food, which would you choose?
A butler, provided that he never wastes food.

3. What is the first thing you'd clean if you were a rich family's maid?
Their bank accounts. I don't approve of luxurious living heh.

4. If you were a dog walker, what type of dog would you prefer to walk? (like a breed, say a lil' Pomeranian or a big German shepherd?)
But I don't even like animals D: Um I guess like, a Pokemon dog. Houndour or Growlithe.

5. How do YOU procrastinate?
Well, usually I procrastinate because I'm sad.
So basically I watch Ellen and Vlogbrothers. At school, well, they don't block the Youtube app, so I do that, and play Candy Crush. I've gotten quite good at Candy Crush. Also Ruzzle... but Ruzzle is too much thinking. I have an argument for why Candy Crush is an extremely well designed game. I wrote about it elsewhere hehe.

6. If someone were to ignite you on fire and turn you into a fireworks display, and you had no escape, what colors would you prefer to light up in?
Steph is this your question... this is pretty grotesque. I'd like colors that look good on tie-dye, so spirals of light yellow, orange, pink, then bright purple followed by reds and blues.

7. If someone handed you a ring and whispered: "It has secret powers", what would be your first reaction?
IS IT A HORCRUX :OOO

8. If worms started bursting from said ring, what would you do then?
It IS a horcrux... I suppose I'd die before I could do anything, but if I was a wizard, I'd like, apparate to Harry or Dumbledore or something.

9. Would you rather wear an outfit that consists of all rainbow stripes, or would you rather wear a scandalous bunny suit, and why?
Rainbow stripes, because I don't believe in scandalous suits. Have you seen the scandalous fairy/witch/hero suits people wear for Halloween? Sometimes when I look at them I throw up inside of my soul. Call me weak, but even excessive profanity makes me feel like a worm. And worms are worms.

10. Are you afraid of bugs?
I used to not be, but then as a child, I had a dream about a dead, pulpy white butterfly, and now I'm especially afraid of squishy bugs.

I warmed up on the elliptical... because I was cold.
Then I felt terrible about myself and ate a bag of carrots because I might've DIED.
I took curled up on the gym floor and took a nap, and was called to play.
East Aurora 21-11 21-4 goodness gracious. I love East Aurora... they're so nice.

Lincoln Way West: 21-23 *Kyleen cheers me on; I almost cry because what Kyleen what?? o man feelings. Helen tells me to go faster, because I'm too weak*
21-17 *Helen tells my dad that if she didn't coach me, I would've lost. Which I mean I'm SUPPPER grateful that she deigned to help me, but really... thanks anyway :P. Funston tells me to be not tired. I nod, and some sweat falls off my chin.. and ears... and out of my hair. Ellen-the-state-champ's mom tells me to "jia you"*
21-11 heh.

Kyleen: 11-21 18-21 I was winning 17-12 and then man I suck. But many things became clear to me... and Coach chatted me on Facebook, telling me about God's plan and being happy <3 Ahhh Coach. Next year, me and Christine, top 2.

I have a B+ in AP Chem forever, which is sad but I deserve it.
I have a 90.4 in Calc BC forever!!! I'm pretty happy, but I think my teacher is mad that I stopped caring and only got B's on my quizzes after I knew I'd keep an A... and I finished my mock AP free response exam in 15 minutes, so I drew this elaborate picture for 45 minutes... and I BARELY got a 5 whoops I guess I won't be asking for a recommendation from her.

Annndd college. I'll write about it later. Many complications sigh.

And hey hey hey hey hey hey we're going to state :)
