SNOWBALL FIGHT!

Also just turned Asami's pool into a snowboarding rink. Life is awesome, snow days are awesome.

How has everyone's Halloween been going?

I have. The worst. Room mate. Ever. She never cleans. And I think she keeps borrowing my things. She definitely steals my food. I'm going to set up a camera and catch her in the act.

I don't know what I'll do after that, but I'll think of something.

Well cupcakes. Fall semester has been going on for about a month now. One of my classmates said I could sign up for this network, but then I couldn't be assed, so she signed me up anyway. Life is short, might as well find more ways to procrastinate.

When I'm not tormenting my new roommate.

Matcha death cloud. Send waffles. Might not survive otherwise.

Woke up to a random guy in bed this morning.

NOT OKAY WITH THIS.

I really don't get all this pumpkin spice flavored stuff. Internet, explain yourselves!

Also, totally tried out my first test flight today. IT WAS SO AWESOME.

And painful. I needed bandaids.

EVERYTHING IS AWESOME.

Everything is just fine. Situation Normal.

Also, airbending is a thing. I even have my flying stick!

Private to Asami
Is that offer to move in with you still open? I might have just avatar stated my bedroom.

... Dad's gonna kill me.

I'm never sleeping again. Two days in a nightmare was enough of that. And there are still people passed out? And others hallucinating? That's horrible!

OKay, I don't even...

I'm so tired and I keep falling asleep random places, like... I work as a barista guys and they sent me home and I'm actually pretty sure I'm fired. Because I fell asleep right ON the espresso machine. And Asami, she wouldn't wake up yesterday. She's in my bed and she keeps tossing and turning and screaming and I'm pretty worried about her.

And about what Tenzin's going to say now. And classes just started and I'm already missing them. FML.

Ummmm. So the keys on my keyboard? Currently are sticking to my hands. For no reason. None. I peeled them off of my laptop without even thinking about it. My left home row of keys? Gone. I don't

What is this?

Tonight I learned that some electronic things you should not tinker with.

Okay so has anyone else noticed in their dreams that they tend to wear the same five pieces of clothing all the time? In my dream world, if I opened my closet, I'd probably find three to five of the same exact shirts, pants, and parkas. And then my darker blue formal outfit. What's up with that?

I'm only mentioning this because when I went to get dressed today my water tribe outfit was sitting there. I think dream me is still a little more buff than I am, though. It doesn't fit right yet.

( [Private to Asami, cut for possible non-con triggers] )

I need answers. I'm tired of having none. I'm tired of not knowing why my parents left me, or what this briefcase means. Calculator, glasses, tap card, phone, pen, three pencils. I'm tired of everything I end up doing resulting in questions instead of any kind of answer. I just want to know why I wasn't worth staying for or keeping and keep coming up with nothing.

Came home from work and found an axe on my bed.

There is an axe on my bed.

WHY IS THERE AN AXE ON MY BED.

More importantly: WHO GOT INTO MY APARTMENT AND PUT THIS AXE ON MY BED.

If they do it again I will beat them. With this axe they gave me.

Okay so uhm... Is it normal to be kinda touchy with your female friends? I mean... Cuddly and stuff? I've pretty much been straight my entire life as far as I'm aware, but we end up hugging and snuggling and none of that feels all that strange either.

I'm just a little confused, I guess.

Had the craziest dream last night. Like it was pretty normal at first, just like reliving my childhood.

Then a Kaiju attacked San Francisco. Then other cities all along the Pacific rim. Like an invasion or something. So what do we do? We build giant robots to fight 'em, and my brother and I sign up to pilot them.

That's what I get for watching Godzilla the other day.

I don't know if I can look my father in the eye after a dream like that. I don't even know if he'd do the same things or not to my friends.

I don't think headaches should last this long. People make them worse but apparently that's not a legitimate reason or something stupid like that. So I will reach out to the masses. Headache cures, go.

One of my stupid GAs left Ghidorah's tank open last night. If you see a Beareded Dragon running around the UC Irvine area, please return it to my office. Poor little guy's probably scared out of his wits.

Oookay, so uhm. Waterbending. That's a thing that's currently happening. And something tells me that Waterbending and modern plumbing were never meant to be together.

It's actually not a hunch, the bathroom is a mess.

[Asami]

Tenzin is going to kill me. And it's not like I can say 'Hey, you and your kids are AIRBENDERS' because ... he is totally not dreaming about being the other him.

None of the flyers I posted around town seemed to be getting any attention, so I thought I'd advertise here.

Looking for members to join a 3 piece punk band. I've got lead guitar down, just need a drummer and bassist. Name's already picked out: White Silk Chinchillas. Totally non-negotiable. Hit me up.

So I dreamed I met the Avatar, which is kind of like meeting a really famous person you've only ever heard about who controls all four elements and is responsible for keeping the world in balance. But she's this punky teenager a little younger than yourself and your boyfriend has the hots for her.

Hokay, so someone gave me the word that this was better than craigslist although not by much. Hi. I'm Astrid. I work at a vet, where we're trying to find the owners of this lost little beauty.



We've had her for a couple of weeks and no one's claimed her, except for a few bullshit animal hoarders. If no one does by today, we'll have to put her up in a shelter. I'd rather not have that happen.

I'd take her, but the apartment has a pretty lame no-pet policy.

Helllllllo?

Is anyone out therrrrrrre?

I'm sure there are people out there otherwise some rando wouldn't have told me about this site. Which is fine by me because it's nice to finally be somewhere that actually has a decent internet connection.

Hello, my name is Hiccup and I like the beach, not having to pee in the woods, having a real bed, living in a city, and trying to keep up with pop culture.

So, at the pool today, I found out that I can control water now. In the dreams I've summoned it to help me, like when this one girl was bullying me on a field trip, before I even knew I was a demigod, I summoned water from a nearby fountain and doused her. Then when I started camp and Clarisse was trying to stick my head in the toilet, I caused it to backfire on her. Anyway, it was after the pool closed and I was the only one near the pool and I don't even know why I tried it, but I just stuck my hand out towards the water and all of a sudden, it rose up out of the pool. It was only for a moment or two, but it was pretty freakin' cool. I was gonna try it again, but one of the other lifeguards came out to check if everything was ready to be locked up.

So now, other than being able to breath underwater, I can control it. Do I dare cut myself to see if water will heal me like in the dreams yet?

Okay, crazy people. What's going on with the socks? Do you have any idea how many pairs of socks are in this house? Pema is going to drive herself insane trying to find them all. She's convinced that one of the kids hid them all somewhere.

So I got into a mood today and took my batcyclemotorcycle out. Got into some street races. Ended up smoking some people, including this hot little femme.

Had a good time.

I think I've had some of those dreams! Like I'm living in the 20s. The cars are still awesome, and there are people that can throw fire and water. All the elements I think. They're called benders. I'm not one, but that's okay. Just like real life dad made me learn to defend myself.

Ever been held hostage by a mummy man who can't do sorcery for shit, a wolf-man with fleas, a brooding chimera who thinks wearing white is conspicuous, and a fishman (read: a literal over-sized fish with arms and legs)? And they stood around you and insulted your nose and your figure?

WHILE ON YOUR PERIOD EVEN

I don't recommend it. Also, my dreams don't know the concept of being chronologically correct, because I'm pretty sure this came before I blew up that crab of a dark lord.

Zombified people in need of their caffeine to become functioning members of society who just mumble an order? I can handle that.
Being told that I need more 'pep' and energy at 5:30 in the morning by someone who thinks they're 'better' than me because of a job? Those are the type of comments that are asking for trouble.

Waffles. I need waffles to deal with the amount of stupid that comes with opening.

Whaaaaaaaaaat?

There's no Tim Horton's here! Am I doing this internet search thing wrong? Every time I put a city in California into this thing it just says 'no results found'.

How am I supposed to survive all of this stuff Tenzin's making me do if I can't even escape and get a double-double!?

I've been stuck inside an airplane for the last however many hours. I mean I don't even know how many hours it was, I didn't count, but it felt like I'd aged at least a year before it landed.

And now I'm stuck in a car with three kids and a screaming baby. I. Am. Going. Insane. HOW DO PEOPLE SURVIVE TRAVELING LIKE THIS ALL THE TIME? You can't just squish yourself inside a tin can, I mean... I'm not even the size of a polar bear and I had a hard time. And this lady next to me smelled like a nursing home the entire flight and she kept battling me over the armrest.

Why don't planes have more armrest space? Ugh. Whatever. I'm here in California and it is WAY more busy than I thought it was. Did you see the hours of operation on some of these places? Even the buddhist temple over here is open till like... 10. 10pm. Wow. If you're lucky, where I'm from, you find somewhere open past 8.

... I might have had too much coffee. HI!

I don't think I'll ever be able to airbend.

At least I can bend all of the other elements again.

HOLY FREAKING BALLS OH MY GOD

I CAN SEE!

SORT OF!

ohmygod
i need to go running
like
now

I guess it's time to introduce myself. I've been lurking on here for a little while now, but have been so busy with training lately I haven't had the time to officially say 'hi'. My name is Katara and I live with my brother Sokka in Tustin. I go to school at UCI and I'm on the water polo team. We're just about to start the season so it's been a bit crazy trying to keep up with everything, but I love water polo so much I can't imagine my life without it. It's gotten me and my brother through some tough times.

Anyway, it's nice to meet everyone!

Amon. He can take people's bending away. Forever.

He was going to take mine.

That was the worst dream I've ever had.

Thanks Jimmy..

Doesn't feel like the end, but it seems like my dreams stopped. Did anyone else have physical changes revert or is that just because that's what happened in my dream?

I always forget about the hangover until it's too late. Urghhh.

It's hard enough studying for finals as a regular college student.

Imagine trying not to accidentally set your study notes on fire. Bending is hard in a normal world.

Is it Friday yet? Because I'd like that.

Not sure what made me think I would actually know how to use this thing that showed up in my closet the other day. All I seem to be doing is smacking myself in the head with it.

Required: Musical Suggestions. No pop. I don't have time for pop. Also, no musicals. Ugh.

I like: rock, grunge, some indie, female singers with strong voices.

I really should learn not to bet on sports anymore. Guess I didn't learn my lesson from last year's March Madness.

I should probably tell Michigan to Skype my mom and explain why I'm not visiting when the semester's over.

I hate my dreams. I hate how they're so similar to real life, and different at the same time.

I miss my mother more now than ever, after tonight... And I hate how that makes me feel weak. I wonder, a little, if she is really dead. Is that stupid?

Well. Here's what's up:

First, everyone's running around singing and dancing. You all know, but I just wanted to say it's just slightly disturbing. It's like an episode of Glee just spilled all over the world. I'm definitely not leaving the house except to walk Naga until everyone goes back to normal.

Second, I dreamed more. About being the Avatar. I mastered Waterbending. And then, curious, I turned on the water in the tub.

I guess it's not just a dream anymore. I can move water.

Ugh. What the crap is going on now? If I have to hear one more sap-ass song...

Apparently I've joined the dreamers.

Just had the weirdest dream. I was a kid, able to control earth, water and fire. For some reason, everyone was very interested in that.

They called me the Avatar, and my life was changed forever.

Anyone ever seen something like that? Or did I have too much soda before bed last night?

So.... is it safe now?
To enter the world again? I miss sunshine. And also cigarettes. Mostly the cigarettes.
