Introduction

Hello. Callistonian.net is my stomping ground on the Internet. Here, I post a potpourri of things - this place is a little random. I'm Chantelle: a 23 year old foreign language, law, and history obsessed girl.

Cecily von Ziegesar’s Gossip Girl #1
Gossip Girl revolves around the lives of privileged teens living in New York City’s Upper East Side. The vast majority of GG’s protagonists are spiteful and superficial: they are as deep as the ink on paper after a girl signs her name with a Montblanc fountain pen.

i’m an intellectual in training. everything inspires me. everything arouses my curiosity. reading, writing, designing, photography, living, etc. are my hobbies.

i was never the kid in class who said, “why do i need to learn this? i’m never going to use it.” that isn’t my way of thinking. i like to know as much as i possibly can about (almost) everything just because…

i mean, why not?

it’s difficult, though. because when you like tons of things - fatigue becomes this obnoxious monster. there’s just not enough time and with sleep and rest being a necessity - there’s really not enough time. so, ideally a girl must prioritize but… i, generally, try to do as little of that as possibly. i don’t like cutting back.

my goal is to figure out how to make each day as productive as possible without painfully outlining every activity and killing spontaneity. if you have any tips send them my way.

(insert transition)

when you write 5, how do you do it? one stroke or two? i was penalized by a game for crafting a quick clean 5 - from the top right to the bottom left. the game thought 9.

game: 9×5
me:45!
game: 49 is wrong.
game: 9-4
me: 5!
game: 9 is wrong.

my friends told me that i was writing incorrectly. “your stroke order is wrong.” my response, “no it’s not! this is how americans write 5!!! the game is against me!” i thought that it would be easy - that i could do the math section on the nintendo ds without any problems whatsoever and that i could do it hella fast but… my handwriting screwed me over.
