Freddie! I got your present!
You're going to love it.
Oh, and there's this really cute house that just came up for sale. We should go look at it after Christmas? | | Saturday, December 12th, 2009 | | 7:07 pm |
{weakly hexed private. can easily be broken Hexed very private to Fred and Lise only] I keep waking up in the night from these nightmares. They're so vivid I can almost taste the blood. So much of it... I never remember my dreams, never, but I can't get these out of my head. The places they occur at are the same places I kept searching out as a child, not knowing why. Paris. Nice. Marseilles. Dark places in the city streets, and then the humans, the men, I lured them away from their friends and then the other vampire, the man, he and I would... It's not real. It can't be. I've never killed anyone before, never in my life. Surely I wouldn't, even in another lifetime. It's not me. Why did I like it? I enjoyed it.
Why can I not stop dreaming these things? J'ai sommeil. J'ai trop sommeil. J'ai aussi peur. | | Thursday, December 10th, 2009 | | 9:23 am |
[Fred] [hasty scrawl, written late last night] Fred? Fred, I know you're at work, but I had-
Nevermind, love. It's okay. I'm fine. | | Friday, December 4th, 2009 | | 10:34 am |
Freddie, Angelina, thanks for letting me stay at your house. I don't know where I'd be otherwise.
The semester is almost over and apart from one class, I guess I'm not going to pass. Alll of my notes and assignments were burned up in the fire, my laptop destroyed as well as my backup hard drive, and none of my professors in the CRM department are allowing me enough time to make it up. I really shouldn't be surprised. they didn't want me in the program in the first place and they've been attempting to find any reason to fail me all semester. Why would they start being nice now? I don't feel like working on essays and assignments that won't get me anywhere anyway. They'd never have let me graduate with the degree so I'm not sure what the point is.
Next semester, I won't be going back to AU. I guess that means whoever threw a flaming brick through my window wins. I don't care. It's time for me to start living realistically. I guess we all have to start sometimes.
I'm lucky to be a vampire in this situation because I heal faster than a human would, but it's still not fast enough. Burns... hurt. And I can see where I'm going to have scars left behind, even though the healers were really good.
[crossouts are still legible]
All this talk about babies and pregnancy... it makes me get lost in wishful thinking. Whoever invented vampires could have at least made us lack the desire to be parents. I'm still young now, so I guess I won't really feel that regret until later on when I would have actually been ready and everything but... it sucks to know that I'll never be able to have kids of my own. At least Fred already has Alice. I would hate to keep him from being a daddy just because I can't be a mum. | | Saturday, November 28th, 2009 | | 11:29 am |
Freddie, don't panic, but I'm at Sanctuary. Apparently someone disapproved of a vampire living in the dorms, or just me in particular, and decided to throw a brick wrapped in a cloth soaked in gasoline that was set on fire through my window just after dawn. I got some burns in the process of running out of the room and my half of the dorm is destroyed
I guess I should also inform my professors that I won't be in class for a couple of days. | | Sunday, November 8th, 2009 | | 1:59 pm |

Another full moon week of madness down. I hope all of the werewolves out there are recuperating. Fred, you need to rescue me from this ginormous bowl of halloween candy. I'm pretty sure I'm going to wind up diabetic if I keep eating it all myself. Except, of course, the part where I'm pretty sure vampires can't GET diabetes. But you know.
[Private: Al, Tracey] That really should not have been as romantic as it was... In fact, I'm pretty sure I should feel bad about it but I don't. Not even a little. Okay, maybe a little but just because... I had spent my whole life not doing that and now that I've done it part of me wishes I hadn't because now I know what I was missing. Confusing. But not... not in a bad way I don't think. | | Sunday, November 1st, 2009 | | 8:50 pm |
Today, I woke up with kiwi in my hair. You were right, Fred. I should have showered. | | Saturday, October 31st, 2009 | | 6:39 pm |
Fred I'm sorry. I can't go out tonight though. I'll make it up to you. | | Saturday, October 10th, 2009 | | 2:35 pm |
Tracey, I am not grinning like an idiot all the time (nor have I been doing so for decades, as you put it), and I'm pretty sure it's not necessary to leave me sticky notes telling me to stop it. Thank you. | | Wednesday, September 30th, 2009 | | 2:56 pm |
Well that exam was a smashing failure. Lovely.
Fred, seriously, QUIT SCHOOL AND DISTRACT ME FROM MY INEVITABLE FAILING GRADE! | | Wednesday, September 9th, 2009 | | 5:31 pm |
So. This organic chem class. It's apparently 'freshman' level and I'm not a freshman any more but it's STILL over my head. Why the hell do I need it? And how does one do organic chemistry? I was lost on day one. I'm still trying to figure out the definition of a polyatomic ion and we're supposed to have like a zillion polyatomic ion thingies memorized already. I should have known better than to ask a pre-healer major what an "easy" core science class was. It might be drop time... because so far I have understood exactly four words in this course. "Welcome to class, students." Beyond that? I'm lost. Lost as a goose. But I do love vampire jokes. This one made me laugh. I mean, obviously whoever came up with it wasn't really a vampire, but it's still hilarious. I had to leave my own comments next to some! ( Reasons not to become a vampire ) | | Saturday, September 5th, 2009 | | 2:24 pm |
My daily schedule has gotten a whole lot busier.
Work, work, work from 7 in the morning until 4:30. Then class from 5 until 9ish. Then study until... whenever. And then work again.
But it's a weekend!! That means no work AND no class. And I think I slept too much... and I'm REALLY craving some coffee right now but I think we're out because I drank it all while I was studying...
I would go shopping but alas it is daytime. | | Monday, August 10th, 2009 | | 2:43 am |
Private: Self
What the fuck? Friends, right? I thought friends I'm bloody overreacting and I know it. It's not been that long and he didn't SAY that he didn't enjoy being with me, he just said that But even so! FRIENDS, which is what he SAID, don't. Fucking fuck. /End Private
I need a drink. Or a vacation. Or both. And apparently, constant reminders of why I shouldn't do certain things. Or people. | | Thursday, August 6th, 2009 | | 5:31 pm |
Awful, awful day at work. The day before the full is always busy in the office, but today it got downright ugly. A man, werewolf, came in just after lunch demanding to see his Monitor, who was still at lunch. I told him he would have to wait and he got irate. I tried to calm him down and another of the monitors offered to talk to him. Instead, he kind of lost it, jumped across my desk and started throwing things. The other monitors came out and I tried to dial security but before they could get there, the office was pretty much destroyed. Several of us got kind of banged up as well.
He was newly turned. This is only his second full moon and eventually he'll grow more accustomed to the mood swings, but apparently he was unstable before being bitten.
Scariest day at work ever, hands down. At least cuts and bruises heal quickly on me. | | Sunday, August 2nd, 2009 | | 3:18 pm |
Moving is exhausting. If I had my bed put together, I think I'd fall asleep, but I can't figure out how to assemble it. These directions are not working for me at all. Mainly because I think the language they were originally written in does not translate well into English.
Or French. Really, either of those two would work.
Anyway, Tracey, I brought a couch and a chair for the living area. They fit, which surprised me, and we still have space to walk. I didn't think I'd live anywhere smaller than my studio, but here I am! I also got us a mini-fridge. Figured it could come in handy. | | Monday, July 27th, 2009 | | 7:31 pm |
Hey, Tracey, you still interested in living together on campus? Apparently we move into campus housing the second week in August if we want, but I need to know whether to apply for a Creature or Mixed dormitory.
[Private: Fred] Why did Dracula take cold medicine? | | Sunday, July 19th, 2009 | | 6:41 pm |
I've been admitted to the CRM program on a "probationary" basis.
Better than nothing. I think they only did it because I wouldn't stop emailing and calling, but it doesn't matter why.
[Private: Fred] How much trouble did you get in this time? - Lee-see :) [/end private] | | Thursday, July 16th, 2009 | | 7:34 pm |
Why does everyone I speak to seem to think that I lack the ability to accomplish what I'm setting out after?
Yes, I know it will be hard. Yes, I know it will likely be harder because of what I am, and no, you do not need to whisper the last bit. I'm fully aware that I am not a human. I have not been human in this lifetime, after all. Yes, I am aware that working through uni will be difficult. Yes, I do know that being a creature monitor is an unorthodox career path for a creature to choose. And in the name of all that is holy, I am perfectly aware what the Creature Regulation Department does. I grew up under its ownership program. I, for lack of a better word, graduated from said program. Now I work for the department. How many of the other students beginning the CRM programme can say that they have seen how it works from both sides? Since every other student currently applying, according to my academic adviser, is human, I would venture to say that none of them do.
And yet here I am, waiting. Because my adviser believes that I should reconsider my major. Because the head of the department is skeptical that a creature can be objective about other creatures.
Government officials governing humans are humans! How is this any different at all? Because I'm a vampire I'm less capable of being objective? Last I checked, being a vampire created an aversion to sunlight, holy objects, and created a requirement for blood to survive. Objectivity? Not effected. At all. Neither is rationality. Yes, I am angry, and I think I have every right to be.
Question what I am all you want. I'm used to being judged. I understand the reason. The fear of creatures is an understandable one since, given the incorrect upbringing and an unsafe environment, without proper oversight, creatures are dangerous. And goddamn it, I want to help be a part of the solution, but because I have fangs I'm unsuited for it?
I'm going back to the adviser's office tomorrow. No, I'll go to the dean of the department's office. I won't just walk away because one person tried to slam the door in my face. I can't. | | Monday, July 13th, 2009 | | 11:07 pm |
Three vampires went into a bar and sat down. The barmaid came over to take their orders. "And what would you, er, gentlemen like tonight?" The first vampire said, "I'll have a mug of blood." The second vampire said, "I'll have a mug of blood." The third vampire shook his head at his companions and said, "I will have a glass of plasma." The barmaid wrote down each order, went to the bar and called to the bartender, "Two bloods and a blood light."
Okay, okay. I am too easily amused. |
