cherryOkay, wow, being without Photoshop sucks. It makes me really want to do things like make Brokeback Mountain icons, and redo my journal with a Captain Jack header. (Seriously, it has been a long, long time since I felt the sheer amount of pure character love that I feel for Jack. Will from Alias, probably, but that was compounded by the fact that I have this thing about Bradley Cooper.)
So, a while back, people did pictorial essays of the people they considered most guh-worthy. Because I'm behind on the times, and I update more when I'm supposed to be being productive, I'm doing it now.
Or, okay, I was, but then it turned into nothing more than Jared Leto picspam, with Bradley Cooper on the side. One day, you are all going to load your friends pages and find (lj-cut) picspam, I swear.

ella_bee tagged me for the five quirks meme.
1. I hate shoes. Whenever I know I'm going to be sitting for any length of time, they come off. Class, library, computer lab, sitting in the student office. This, coupled with my forgetfulness and tendency to wander, has led to my playing the 'If you were my shoes, where would you be?' game on more occasions than I care to remember.
2. I tend to feel guilty for thinking of people I actually know as attractive. I feel as if I'm objectifying them. I realize this is silly, but I can't help myself.
3. When I was little, I had nightmares about cannibals. About the next door neighbour being a cannibal, specifically. Looking back now, I'm pretty sure this came from the original "Land Before Time," where Sarah and Littlefoot are being chased through the maze of thorns with the T-Rex tearing at the branches above them. All of the LBT sequels are nothing like the original, which was dark and sad and scary.
4. I absolutely hate driving in the city. It makes me nervous and twitchy, despite the fact I have no problem doing 120 km/hr on gravel. I get lost even when people send me GoogleMaps, and more than once have I called a friend en route, from my cell phone going "OMG! I'm not even in the city any more."
5. I can't say astronomer properly without a great deal of concentration. It comes out as 'astromoner.' I can't count in my head. If I'm counting above 11 or 12, I have to count outloud. Damned if I know why.
So the concentration thing is giving me mad abouts of trouble right now. I've always had a short attention span, but for the last week or so I haven't been able to make myself focus on anything at all. I had a midterm Friday, and I spent most of the day trying to learn something, anything, about it. I couldn't make the words focus, make them snap into place. I've been trying to do various forms of work and homework all weekend, and the same thing has been happening.
I want to be focusing right now. I really, really, bloody do, so it's not a lack of motivation thing, because I keep trying it and it keeps not working, and GAHHH.
This is seriously pissing me off. I mean, what the hell?
