Just letting everyone know that I'm fine (so you can stop worrying, dad), I've just got a broken arm so that sucks but it could've been a lot worse.
I'm thinking of doing some travelling after this. See the world and have some fun! |

The urge to punch DC comics in the fucking face isn't going away. Seriously, how much shit can you fucking pull? What's next, turning my Mia's HIV into full blown AIDS just to take a giant shit on top of the pile of crap you've already created?!
... I might have issues with the current GA storyline. Maybe. Just a few teeny, tiny issues that make me want to shoot them in the motherfucking face.
Stupid shit spewing assholes.
Right. So. I should no longer read comics. |

Happy Birthday to me!
I so totally need to go out and party after work, who's with me? |

Dear DC Comics,
I am THIS CLOSE to shooting you all in the fucking face I swear to GOD. Cut the crap with Mia's family!
Love,
Maia.
This is why I try not to keep up with my fandom, a time will come when I'll have to stop myself from yelling at someones editorial decision and/or bad writing. |

My new part time job starts tomorrow! It's weirdly exciting and so skeevy to be doing something new.
I should probably get an early night but I'm just so nervous. I might MTN it back to London and just wonder around or do something! OMG I probably shouldn't have had those last two cans of Red Bull. Oops?
I'm so going to have to work this off now. |

Color me curious, but how did everyone celebrate turning eighteen? It's my 18th in a month and I need ideas.
Yeah, I know it's a bit early to start planning a party but I'm so bored it's either this or I'm going to start doing gymnastics in the hallways or something, and I've already been told off for that once! |

I just wanted to let you guys know that I'm okay. I wasn't working the night that the Agency was taken over peace was declared and I've since gotten out of London with my brother dad Caretaker.
If any of you get the chance, can you look in on my foster family? They're probably freaking out and I just want them to know that I'm not back on drugs or hooking again. Tell them that I'm just staying with friends for a bit.
Just be careful, okay? |

What's going on? Director Ford told me to take the weekend off, but it's more than that, right? |

My exams are finally all done. This week has been ridiculously busy, even by my standards, so I'm going to go and pass out on my bed for an hour before going to gymnastics. I think they frown on being so tired you fall off the balance beam and make an idiot of yourself.
The big news around the school wasn't who had the answers to the physics exam, or what teachers had done what or even the fact that a couple going on the American exchange had managed to end up with the same host. It was the explosion that happened last night in London. You'd think Al Qaeda was on our doorstep the way most people were going on about it.
Still, gotta ask, was that an us thing or a non-reincarnate thing? Do we even have a name for regular people? Are we going to call them muggles? |

The pictures were creepy but I've seen and done worse so it's not a big deal, just fucking weird because why anyone would wanna pick on a seventeen year old former street kid is beyond me.
It's the murder and kidnapping that's bothering me. Seriously, CORE, and everyone else, you're making it really hard not to go all vigilante on peoples asses. I just promised I wouldn't do anything stupid until I was eighteen because my foster family apparently like me and they don't want me to get killed.
If it wasn't for Jason I would've done something already. I hate sitting around waiting for the next thing to happen. |

I am really, really not liking the snow or the cold at all. It could get cold at night in San Francisco, but nothing like this. I just want to curl up in bed and not move until I have to go back to school in January, but I can't because I've got Christmas shopping to do and I just know the shops are going to be hell. I'm also doing some volunteer work during the holidays, so I'm going to be busy and cold. I need to do some serious layering to not die of hypothermia.
Now I've just gotta figure out what to get my foster family for Christmas, why do I always leave this stuff to the last minute? |

Dare Wars, a time where my lack of shame might actually come in useful to something other than saying the wrong thing and making people pull the :O face!
I've been paired up with Jennifer. Jen, Jenny, Jenna? Please wave your hands in the air and let me know who you are! Or reply here as it'll probably be quicker, easier and less weird if you happen to live anywhere outside of my line of sight... which, you probably do. Sorry, the Red Bull's just kicked in so I'm a little spazzy. |

Making trick arrows was so much easier in my previous life. Probably because I actually had people around who knew what they were doing and I wasn't relying on some of Mia's half remembered memories on how to do this. I almost thought I had it and then I might've set of a ver, very small flash grenade. In my school's shop DT workroom. Yeah, explaining that one wasn't easy and I've detention from now until Christmas so I will have plenty of time in the classroom to hopefully figure out how to make sure it explodes on impact and not because I'm a total idiot.
I think weapons designer has to be crossed off my list of possible future occupations though. I know Lockheed Martin will cry into their cheerios about that! |

This English weather is just bloody awful. How's a girl from Cali supposed to survive in this place?
Yeah, yeah, I know that Cali girls aren't supposed to say 'bloody' but I'm trying to embrace my adopted country's culture. I eat the food, and complain about the weather so now I'm trying out the lingo. If you're thinking of doing this and you're American then people will laugh at you. A lot. It felt like I was doing a weird form of stand up.
I'm watching Children in Need tomorrow night on the BBC. This is a whole embrace the culture thing. Still, gotta wonder at the ethics of using children in need to get ratings even if it does raise money for charity. Does making money to help a small amount of organisations that help kids actually make putting their stories on TV okay? Is it another form of exploitation or is it just pulling at the heartstrings of Britain to make everyone feel bad and open their wallets? I dunno the answer and don't really expect you lot to either, but whatever. |

Halloween fucking sucked.
Next year, I'm staying home with a bowl full of candy, some Red Bull and enough scary movies to keep me going until dawn. |

Instead of posting after midnight because I've had way too much caffeine, I'm now posting in the middle of the evening to avoid my English Lit homework. It turns out Enduring Love was well named considering the class is enduring some great pains while reading it. Not even Daniel Craig being in the movie can cheer me up and make me like it, and lets face it that man is pretty enough to make the most boring movie kinda entertaining.
Anyway. Moving away from school stuff. I have some serious gaps in my pop culture knowledge, like years worth of not really watching much TV or movies. What stuff do I need to watch? Come on, rec me some awesome things to watch while I stay at home all weekend like a freak with no friends. |

Ugh. So I can't sleep, which before normally wouldn't be a big deal but I have school in the morning and sometimes a gal just wants to sleep! It's gotta be all the caffeine or the nightmares, I haven't had those in a while and I really wish they'd stayed gone. or maybe I'm just thinking too much about stuff. Overworked the brain, because yeah I do actually have one of those. Even if my teachers think I don't sometimes.
I need a good cure for insomnia or to see my counsellor again. Joy of fucking joys., something that isn't 'stop drinking coffee after six pm' I tried that and it just made me all PMSy at the wrong time of the month.
Yeah, this entry is emo and whiny, I'll stick up something funny another day. You can all look forward to it! |

I'm finally getting around to using this thing. I've had it forever but I never really logged on or anything, but apparently I should be making an effort and making friends. I should also be doing this at, like, 3:30am. I'd do it later but I figured there's no time like the present and I'm waiting for my caffeine high to crash.
'Course it means you're all probably not gonna notice this until I'm fast asleep and there won't be replies until the morning. It's possible I didn't think this one through.
I should probably introduce myself. My name's Maia Fletcher, I'm 17 and I live in London. My reincarnate's Mia Dearden from Green Arrow, she was a sidekick that I had never heard of until I was told that I am her and it all sorta made sense. It's weird but kinda cool to know I used to be a fucking superhero. Not many people can say that, well, not at school or anything. I bet a load of you are gonna turn around and tell me you used to fight crime in pixie boots and a fancy cape. I'm not sure if pixie boots are better or worse than the stupid Robin Hood style hat.
Right, so, that's me. Hi! |
