Skool Soon!

This time next week I shall be going back to school...this time FULL time if I can possibly manage it! I am taking Creative Writing II, German III, History and Psych. Any day now I will be receiving the rest of my school loan money. My classes have already been paid for, but even after classes and books I am going to be left with lots for just myself! I am ridiculously excited about this. I have never been in possession of so much money that is all for me. I am going to make a tentative list of gifts I shall soon purchase for myself! :)

* An Ipad. I already have one picked out and have it named, I shall deem it "Salazar Slytherin". I hope that having an Ipad will help me cut down on the ridiculous amounts of notebooks I cart around with me. I believe it shall be a wise investment for both my school years and the writer in me. ( Bought!)

* Three Tattoos. The first one is actually for my sissy. We've wanted to be The Slytherin Sisters for ages and have matching tattoos to prove it. I have a Slytherin crest on my left arm, so I am loaning her the cash to get one on her ankle. The two I am planning on getting are small, but vast in meaning. The first is the sign of the Deathly Hallows. It's directly from Harry Potter. It represents the "Master of Death", which in truth is someone humble enough to accept it's inevitability, and view it as the next great adventure.


The second tattoo I am planning on getting is a sigil from the Harry Potter movies that was on Sirius Black's chest. Anyone who listens to me ramble about Potter knows I am unhealthily obsessed with Sirius, but I cannot stand Gary Oldman's portrayal of him...with the sole exception of his tattoos. I love the tats. The meaning of this sigil is somewhat unclear but most fans agree that it is close to the symbol of Neptune, and likely represents dreams, magic, fate, destiny and prophecy. One theory I found suggests that it is dimly representative of the constellation Sirius itself. I love it all, so I am hoping to get this symbol right along side of the Deathly Hallows. In the end I shall have all the things that I love most about the series: Slytherin, Death/Life/Rebirth and Sirius. A Harry Potter geek thrice over. :)

* Clothes. I NEED CLOTHES! BAD! Goodwill here I come!  (BOUGHT! :))
*Jewelry/Makeup. A goth is never complete without a ton of these. (BOUGHT!)
*Absinthe. This addictive bottle of awesomeness runs like 70 bucks a bottle. :*( But if I can find somewhere the sells it, and I have the funds left over than I am all over this. Oddly enough...I just HATE most alchoal, but the effect a nice glass of absinthe has on me if FAR different than being drunk. It is more like being stoned. And YES is does help with creativity...but it isn't dangerous as long as it is consumed in moderation. (BOUGHT)

*Yaxley's wand. Again with the Harry Potter geekness. :) I got my sister Snape's wand a few years back and I've always wanted a wand for myself. I pawed through the whole Noble collection looking for a wand that called to me, and this was the the one that did. It just looks like something a Slytherin would wield. And it's funny because me and my sis have a inside joke about Yaxley and all Death Eatter's so I have to get it just for that.
