Steve Irwin, history of the diary, great day in the past, and more
Hey readers! How are you all doing? I'm doing good. Happy negative 6th Birthday to Will Stoppable, the 2nd child to the Kim and Ron clan in the KPD Universe! I watched Dancing With the Stars for like 8 minutes when Monique Coleman was dancing. Haha. English. Talked about some stuff related to Portfolio Two. Seminar. Review over Political Science exam on Friday. History. Notes on American Revolution and I got back my exam. I got a 93 out of a 100! Whoohoo! That's awesome! :) Poli Sci. Notes. Very boring. 3 years ago today I realized I was a KP fan! Yeah! Whoohoo! How exciting! These last three years have been absolutely wonderful! History of the diary. September 20th. In 2002, I was just pep rallying and stupid high school stuff. In 2003, I realized I was a KP fan ("I love watching fucking Kim Possible. It's become my new obsession. I mean I love their mission outfits. It makes them seem so sexy and mysterious...this is cartoon chars we're talking about! It would be like 40% better if its like a pg-13 thingy. Also Kim and Ron need to get together cuz they are like Ron and Hermione."). In 2004, I was fangirling about KP and discussing computers ("I swear if I get my own computer, I want him to come over and do all that stuff for it as well. You know. So it will be oh-so-totally perfect!"). In 2005, Hurricane Rita, I was savoring Carroll High School, my grandma making psyche hurting cracks, ("Grandma had this horrible nerve to crack about me going to college. She's like you wouldn't last long in college, you get homesick and whatnot. My grandma is like going to lose me as her granddaughter if she keeps up. I mean, I thought the whole purpose of family was to be SUPPORTIVE. What horrible family I have. I totally understand Ren Steven's motivation behind the "I hate this family!" line in The ES Movie. I mean, I love my family, but there is a reason it is not on my priority list in general, it's like 6, after my writing, my education, my friends, and other stuff. I mean, I may not look strong, but my close friends know me well enough that I could handle college away from home."), and stuff. Isn't it crazy how I still feel the same and I still don't feel the same on some of these! It's insanely cool! So, last night I watched the Steve Irwin Memorial Service. I wrote this about it on the board at 1:21, "I don't know how many of you guys know or saw it but last night at 8 pm CST Animal Planet aired the Steve Irwin Memorial Service; the public one. It was entitled, "Steve Irwin: He Changed Our World." It was an hour long, without commerical breaks. There were no commericals. It was very beautiful, touching, and more. They had clips from the shows and others. They had the likes of Russell Crowe, Kelly Ripa ("Even though I had 6 or 7 brief encounters..."), this one guy from The Wiggles, Larry King, Justin Timberlake, the Aussie Prime Minister, Wes Mannion (his best mate), Bob Irwin (the older one), and even little Bindi talking about him. I cried through most of it. But, one thing is for sure. I was inspired to do my Tribute to him (which I'm currently working on). I was rather touched by when Bindi spoke. That little 8 year old girl spoke better than any of the adults there and she got a standing ovation before she even spoke! She basically said that Steve was her hero, she misses him everyday, and that she wants to be just like him. That totally instilled the hope in me that we'll have somebody of the Irwin line completely his work. He may be gone, but he'll never be forgotten. His work and mission may be over but we'll take it from here, eh? Ah, man, I'm kinda choked up." That was the only way I could articulate. Fic update. I wrote about 3 pages last night. I'm on page 8. I'm prolly gonna type up and save to disk the first part and maybe save the first bit of part 2, that way I can post it all at once when it's ready to be put up. Thought/Quote of the day: "Kim Possible was a virgin; she had never had sex, yet she felt that fighting the martial arts were exactly like it."-- Narration, Kim Possible: Passionate Sparring Word of the day: ecchymosis Hakuna Matata. |
