Name: Holly
Nicknames: Wanda
Age: 19
Height: 5' 7"
Hair Color: Brown with some fabulously fake blonde highlights
Eye Color: Blue-ish green
Born in: Flint.
Education: Edjamawha? Oh right, my schoolin'. High school ran into my sleeping schedule, so it was pushed aside and replaced by a G. (good) E. (enough) D. (diploma). And now there's college, and I make my own schedule now, so my classes are in the PM nowadays.
Fav. Hobbies: Teaching my dog to talk (she's up to three words and no, they're not "bark, woof and arf"!), reading nerd stories (fan fiction), and acting (like a dork).
Fav. Singers, Groups & Musicians: Amy Grant, Lifehouse, "Weird Al" Yankovic and Michael W. Smith. And Evanescence is fairly awesome as well.
Fav. Movie: The HPs and Orange County, Moulin Rouge.
Fav. Books: The Harry Potter series, courtesy o' J.K. Rowling, the Kissed By An Angel series by Elizabeth Chandler and This Lullabye by Sarah Dessen.
Fav. Animal: Kitties, dogs, horses, they're all good.
Favourite Place you'd want to Visit: Besides Vegas for the 40th time? How 'bout Platform 9 & 3/4? *Grins nerdily*
Fav. Color: Tickle Me Pink (for you weirdos who weren't brought up with Crayola, light pink).
Fav. School Subjects: Theatre an' English.
If you were a character on the Cast of Friends, who would you be?: The guest character who doesn't like any of the normal characters, and brings her friends Daria and Johnny Bravo to make the show better.
If you were a Flower, you would be a...: Holly plant. I'm poisonous yet festive!
If you were a tree, you would be a...: Peach tree. Mmm, peaches...
As pertains to Harry Potter:
House: Gryffindor. I used to think I'd be in Hufflepuff since I tend to be all optimistic and I tend to be a bit of a doormat, but I don't like doing work like the 'puffs and folks tell me you've got to be brave to be a theatre major.
Favorite Book: Good ol' book 3, Prisoner of Azkaban.
Favorite Character(s): Hermione Granger. That kid's great, sticking up for the House Elves and always looking out for her kiddos, Harry and Ron. *Fondly ruffles her hair, making it a bit bushier*
Wand: 12", Holly (*grins*) and Veela hair, springy, good for Charms.
Pet: (Pets, actually) Chyna the Talking Dog, Daria the Escape Artist Cat and Amy "Scratch Attack" Cat.
Hi kids! What's new? What's new with me is that school has started, which, of course, means that theatre has started! *Bursts into relieved tears* Oh-ho, I'm so freaking glad! *Sputters and sobs* Do you have any idea how much I've missed that class? To me, the word theatre is synonymous with the term complete and utter happiness. The good news is that Leah and Kyle (theatre just wouldn't be theatre without them), Nick, Shawna, Sudie and Monica (from 1st semester) have all returned! The bad news is that Don, the dude who gets my vote for Hottest Theatre Kid and everyone's vote for Most Likely to Win an Acadamy Award, has graduated. *Goes pale* I'm just sick about it. Plus, we lost a ton of other fun actors... like, 12. So that sucks. We haven't done a whole heck of a lot yet, but we did some pantomiming which consisted of the whole class losing their friends' dog, and ruining folks' hair colors. We also got to play my all-time favorite theatre game, Bus Stop, where you must get the person "waiting for the bus" out of their seat by doing some quick-thinking improv. I got a new guy, Justin, out of his seat by walking up and saying, "BEEP BEEP! I'm the bus, get in!" but then stealing his seat when he got up and exclaiming, "Ha ha! I'm not a bus, I'm just a person who wanted your seat!" Then Kyle decided to get me out of my seat by walking up to me and pretending to hump me. After about 5 seconds of this, I looked at my watch and asked him when the bus would arrive, but he pointed out that, has this happened in real life, I would have been long gone. I had to agree, and admitted defeat. *Hangs head*
I recently decided to re-read some of the Daria fan fiction I used to read obsessively a few years ago, and realized that I can't just abandon this awesome stuff just because I now read Harry Potter fan fic. That would just be wrong, as this stuff is great, and I'd forgotten just how great it is. I used to bloody love the show Daria, but it was the fan fic I was REALLY addicted to... specifically a cluster of Daria fan fiction written by a writing goddess who called herself Invisigoth Gypsy. The fics always managed to cheer me up and make my day a zillion times brighter, and I think you should all read her stuff if you ever get the chance. The whole series is focused around Daria and Trent, and how they were both too scared to admit they liked each other, so it was extremely cute, and it's one of my favorite sources of entertainment. Plus, there was no Tom (the boyfriend Daria eventually had)! Hurray for Trent and not for Tom. Now, move toward the link... that's it, closer... closer... The IVG Shipper Continuum

Life After Daria
Time: 12:15
I'm wearing: My pink turtleneck sweater and tie-up jeans.
I last ate: Baked potatoes and vegetarian baked beans for dinner.
Song that's in my head: "Blurry" by Puddle of Mudd.
_________________________________________________________
Well, the last Daria movie, "Is It College Yet?" was on last Monday, and it was awesome. Daria graduated and got accepted to her second choice college, which was in Boston, the same town as the art college Jane would be going to. Trent was upset about Jane leaving home, but she assured him that he could visit her in Boston. Daria broke up with Tom, but they're still going to be friends. But dude... check it out. Daria's going to college in Boston... Trent's going to visit Jane in Boston... Daria's an adult now... I'm going to make up my own ending and say Daria and Trent are going to hook up in Boston.
Ever since I first became obsessed with Daria in eighth grade, people have been asking me what I'm going to do when the show ends. They would say, "You're not going to kill yourself when Daria gets cancelled, are you?" *Shakes head*. Those people are just silly. They don't realize I always have a backup obsession. Thank God for Harry Potter! J/K, of course.
I've decided not to return to school after my three-week illness. Instead, I'm going to go to night classes to study the material I'll need to take the GED test. *Shrugs* I feel pretty guilty about all the school time I missed, but honestly, I couldn't help it. I just have too many health problems to get a normal high school education. Between my polycystic ovarian syndrome-induced stomache trouble, my really bad obsessive-compulsive disorder, my horrible restless leg syndrome, and my ridiculously weak immune system, it's impossible for me to get to school very often. Plus, we're moving back to Flint, since Mike's hockey team got stolen from him here in Bay City.
We went to an open house for this really, *REALLY* awesome house that this guy built brand new. Oh man, it's just beautiful... in the loft room, there's a balcony that you can walk out on, and... oh, the whole thing is just gorgeous. And it's only $95,000! But we can't afford that house, so we're going to be stuck with a fairly cool one for $65,000. My step-siblings are going to move in with us, too because Carrie says her mom is acting psycho, and she needs to get out of that house. And Billy doesn't feel right living with his grandma, so that's cool that they're going to live with us. I really like those two. My brother, Zach, should be visiting more often now that we're going to be back in Flint, too, so that's rockin'.
Besides the night classes I'll be taking to study for my GED (Good Enough Diploma, as Chris Rock would say), I'm also going to need to get a job. I'll be 18 on February 28th, which means I'll be off my Dad's GM insurance, so I've gotta work somewhere that'll get me insurance as well as a pay check. I think I'll apply at TCBY, 'cause I'm already there every day. :-)
Alrighty, well, I'm gonna go, listen to Bush's speech. Bush is the man. I think he's pretty hot for an older guy, too... that Laura Bush is a lucky lady. What a dude. Okay, see ya!

I'm only *moderately* obsessive-compulsive?!
Dude, check it out. This nifty disorder test seems extremely accurate, except it told me I'm MODERATELY obsessive-compulsive. You would think that someone who has constant, repetitive prayers running through their head all day, and can't concentrate on much other than Harry Potter and Daria would be considered *very* obsessive-compulsive. *Shrugs*, Oh well.

| Paranoid: | Low |
| Schizoid: | Low |
| Schizotypal: | Moderate |
| Antisocial: | Low |
| Borderline: | Low |
| Histrionic: | Moderate |
| Narcissistic: | Low |
| Avoidant: | High |
| Dependent: | High |
| Obsessive-Compulsive: | Moderate |

Combining My Obsessions
Time: 10:28 A.M.
Song in my head: "Everything" by Lifehouse
I last ate: A raison bagel with soy butter for breakfast.
I'm wearing: My Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure shirt and multi-colored jeans.
_________________________________________________________
You know, I've been trying to write a good Daria fan ficiton since I first became obsessed with it. But I've never been able to finish one. Now that I'm obsessed with Harry Potter, I was thinking about writing a Harry Potter fan fiction. But I don't have any ideas for a Harry Potter fan fiction.
Then I got to wondering, what if I wrote a Harry Potter/Daria crossover fan fiction? I know everything there is to know and more about Daria, and pretty much everything about Harry Potter. Maybe this would be something I could actually finish.
The only problem is, I would have to come up with a plot (duh). Now, what the heck would Harry Potter be doing in Lawndale, and why would Daria be at Hogwart's? Hmm... Well, I suppose I'll go, check out some other web sites while I ponder this.
Later!

More Daria survey questions!
Awesome! Survey Whore added 15 questions to the Daria survey I posted a while back. So now, naturally, I'm completing the survey.
13. Do you know someone who reminds you of Brittany? Well... Carrie's a cheerleader, but she's *nothing* like Brittany besides that! But every time I go to her games, I quote Brittany's cheers.
14. Of Kevin? This drunk at my school acts a lot like him.
15. Quinn? My mom! Before she got with Mike, she had a date, like every single night! I was always like, "Who's the date of the night, Quinn?"
16. Daria? Nope. Wish I did.
17. Trent? Billy has been compared to Trent because of his sleeping habits... But other than that, I don't know anyone like Trent. I'm with Katherine on this one, if I did know someone like Trent, I'd jump him.
18. Do any of your teachers remind you of Daria’s? Yup. Ms. Klida really reminds me of Ms. Barch's. On the first day of school, I was like, "How come there are no guys in this class?" and she was like, "MEN SUCK!"
19. Is there a food that you eat for dinner every night, like Daria’s family and lasagna? When I'm with my dad, we go to Mario's just about every... single... NIGHT. Ugh. The waitresses don't even take our order anymore, they just bring us the pizza and Diet Coke.
20. Was your dad in boot camp, too? Does he have spasms because of bad memories? Nope. I'm the one with the spasms. :-)
21. Do you have a hangout where all the kids in your town go, like their pizza place? Fazoli's. I don't know why, but when school gets out, everybody flocks to Fazoli's like there's no other restaurant in town.
22. Can you tell me what Daria’s “uniform” consists of? Black combat boots, a black pleated skirt, an orange shirt with a green blazer over it, and those awesome glasses. <-------Yep. She's right.
23. How about Quinn’s? Seasons one through 4, she wore a pink baby tee with a smiley face, blue jeans and clunky brown shoes. But now she wears a short pink shirt with a butterfly on it, the same jeans, and clunky black shoes.
24. Which of the three J’s would you go out with? Why? In the past, I would have said Joey because I like his hair. But then I read Invisigoth Gypsy's fan fiction, and just from the way he treated Quinn in the fics, I'd go for him. 'Course, that *was* just a fan fic...
25. Which member of the Fashion Club do you think is hottest? I'm straight. But I think Stacy is the cutest. And the nicest!
26. Is your mom a workaholic? Is he as bad as Helen? No. My mom works *really* hard, but when it's time to quit working, she's more than ready to quit.
27. Are is your relationship with your best friend more like Daria and Jane’s or Quinn and Sandy’s? I don't think Sarah and I are quite as witty as Daria and Jane... Yet, I don't think we're like Sandi and Quinn either. Well... let's just say Daria and Jane, we like them better. :-D
28. Don’t you think MTV should air Daria more often? Oh, heck yeah. Or, scratch that, I want a whole network where they show nothing but Daria all day and all night. I could throw the remote out, 'cause I'd watch that all the time.
13. Do you know someone who reminds you of Brittany? Well... Carrie's a cheerleader, but she's *nothing* like Brittany besides that! But every time I go to her games, I quote Brittany's cheers.

In a pickle with Daria fan fiction
You know what really sucks? I've been trying to write this Daria fan fic', "You Snooze, You Lose" for a little more than a year. But it seems I'm unable to write it! *Pouts* I need inspiration. Where in the heck do ya *find* inspiration? It's like inspiration took one look at me and ran off screaming into the night. Anyway, here's a movie-type preview to my tough-to-write story, "You Snooze, You Lose."
(Music: "Leave it All Behind" by Amy Grant."
Daria goes with Tom to The Cove to stay with him and his family for a weekend. It's obvious that Tom's family isn't taking too kindly to anything Daria does. Upset by this, Daria asks Tom to take her home, but he promises he'll make this humiliating weekend up to her later, and they stay.
The next day at breakfast, Daria offhandedly mentions her fear of the water. The next thing she knows, the Sloanes are excitedly talking about going sailing to get Daria over her fear. After a lot of begging, they talk her into it. Unfortunately, Tom's uncle doesn't have a TV at his boathouse, so they can't check the weather reports before they set sail. A huge storm hits while they're out on the water, and Tom falls out of the ship. Daria freaks, and jumps in to save her boyfriend, despite her fear of the water. When Elsie (Tom's sister) realizes Daria's not doing too good out there, she jumps in to rescue her. Elsie manages to drag Daria out of the water, but Tom's nowhere in sight...
After Tom's funeral, everyone at the Morgendorffer house acts awkward around Daria, so she spends most of her time at Jane's. Even though Jane's being a great friend, Daria seems even more depressed than usual. The only person she doesn't seem heartbroken around is Trent. Trent's always been happy to be around Daria, but now he almost seems smitten with her... awesome...
(Music: "Somebody Else's Song" by Lifehouse.")
...but is she cracking up or does Trent seem... different somehow? Nearly every time she's around him, it feels like deja vu. And since when does Trent read Poe? Trent used to sleep eighteen hours a day, not eighteen *minutes*! He hardly ever even plays his guitar anymore. All of this is strange behavior for Trent, but when he gets thrown in prison for attempted murder of the Sloanes, Daria and Jane know something's up.

Last Daria Ep Ever
Well, the last episode of Daria was shown Monday night. It's so sad that it's leaving!
The episode was called "Boxing Daria," and it was about this refrigerator box that Daria hung out in when she was little. With that episode being really sad, and it being the last one ever, I'm surprised I didn't cry. Huh. Weird.
Well... at least the Daria movie is still coming up.

The Disney World Story
I was re-reading one of my favorite Daria fan fictions, "The Disney World Story" by Invisigoth Gypsy when I realized I'd like to go to Disney World. So when my dad got home from his business trip to Chicago, I was like, "Hey Dad, we should go to Disney World over spring break," and he said, "Yeah, you're right."
Cool, eh? 'Cause, see, my grandma and grandpa Z. are in Florida right now, so we can visit them, and check out the places the Daria characters went in "The Disney World Story." Z-bear Zach might have to take a week off of school, but oh well. Education is a small price to pay for fun, right?
So, hurray for Disney World!
Now, back to that Daria fan fiction. "The Disney World Story" rules, and you should all check it out at http://geocities.com/dariafanfics/authors_ivg.html. In "The Disney World Story," Daria inherits her ancient great aunt's huge fortune, and Helen makes her take a butt-load of Lawndale students to Disney World with it.

AAAAAAAAH! THEY'RE CANCELING DARIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's right! Glenn Eichler has decided to cancel Daria. What a dork. Who says we can't watch her go to college? I want to see it! Don't you? You're damn right you do!
Some people have started a petition against it, but dude... what good is that going to do? Does Glenn ever do anything the fans want him to? Did he hook Daria and Trent up? Heck no, he created the most sickening character he could and hooked Daria up with *him*! Before they cancel the show, can't they at least kill Tom off or have him move away, and for the love of Jonathan Jackson, hook Daria up with Trent? Geez!
Okay... Holly's a bit angry... so she's going to find someoen who will smack her... then... she'll be back...
@$#%&*#$%^#@!

Do cartoon characters count?
Well, the theme says I can have dinner with three people, living or dead. But are Daria and Johnny Bravo living, dead, or nonexistant in real life? Hmm...
Oh well. I'll just pick some cool living and dead people. How 'bout Julia Stiles, Jonathan Jackson and Albert Einstein.
Julia Stiles rules! In fact, my two favorite movies (besides the Daria movie, of course) are Ten Things I Hate About You and Save the Last Dance. I can't decide which movie I like better, the both completely rule. Julia is a vegetarian, an awesome actress and dancer, and like, the leader of all females. She's cool in every way possible. That hair just can't be beat.
I've watched General Hospital with my mom since I was a baby, and I was about nine years old when Jonathan Jackson joined the cast. He was Lucky, the hottest guy on the show... or anywhere, for that matter. I collected pictures of him to put in photo albums and to hang on my walls, I watched episodes of GH that contained him repeatedly, and I read every article I could find that was about him, or even his brother, Richard. Jonathan Jackson is a vegetarian, an awesome actor, a great singer and guitarist in his band Scarlet Road, and he's the only perfect male I've ever seen. Wish I could marry that guy... *Dang*, what a hottie!
Albert Einstein was so cool, and everyone knows it. He dropped out of high school, and was still the smartest guy like, ever. Albert Einstein was a vegetarian, too, and that was the coolest thing about him, as far as I'm concerned. He realized that killing animals was wrong. Of course, it doesn't take a genius to figure that out out (just look at me).
Alrighty then. So I'm planning on having a vegan dinner with Julia Stiles, Jonathan Jackson and Albert Einstein tomorrow night. If they don't show up, I'll probably just eat with Mom, Zach and Sarah. See ya!

My Story of Daria
Since I explained my vegan story, I thought I'd explain my obsession with Daria, so that my entire name makes sense. So, here's an explanation for the "Daria Freak" part of my OD name.
My obsession with Daria is actually kind of ironic. Daria stands for cynicism, sarcasm, anti-sappiness. My previous TV show obsessions, however, were all *about* sappiness, preppiness, and allllll that wonderful stuff that Daria hates. I was into soap operas, Clueless, Sabrina the Teenage Witch... Daria wasn't exactly the type of show anyone would have that I'd be into.
The first episode I ever saw of Daria was "Too Cute." I just loved Quinn, I thought she was so cool! But then I saw what a snob she was, and realized that the show was cool because of Daria's outlook on life. She had some snappy comeback for every stupid comment that was made, and I thought it was hilarious. However, that didn't get me hooked on the show. I just sort of thought it was pretty good at that point.
"Road Worrier" was the second episode I saw. Daria had such an adorable crush on Trent... she got all nervous around him, and Daria *never* got nervous. She was cool, collected, and could handle anything with sarcasm. Not Trent. I loved it! There was a possibility of a hook-up here... I *had* to keep watching.
I watched Daria for four years. She never hooked up with Trent. But I watched and taped every episode, hoping that she would. Daria went out with nerdy Ted, had some sort of weird chemistry with that cousin of Upchuck, and had... *something* going on with Tom, Jane's boyfriend. I still clung to that last thread of hope. Daria and Trent *HAD* to happen. They just had to! My life would be over if they didn't! I figured I would turn into some sort of weird hermit, or have a nervous breakdown, or something.
Well, Daria hooked up with Tom, and there was this huge thing where Jane couldn't stand the sight of Daria because she stole her boyfriend. Thorough all of that crap, never once did anyone mention that Daria was still supposed to have a crush on Trent. I mean, hello?! I've been waiting! And it never happened. Oh, I was pissed. I cried once or twice. Then nothing. I was just sort of over it. It was really weird to not really care all that much because I'd expected my entire life to end.
Well, now I can at least I can pay attention to the rest of the characters on the show instead of constantly thinking, "Are Daria and Trent gonna hook up? Are Daria and Trent gonna hook up?" You know, it's weird. There were other interesting characters on the show the whole time. Whoa. Well, okay. I think I've explained my obsession to the point where you're more confused. My job here is done. Thank you and goodnight.
PS: Now I think Jodie and Mack are my favorite couple on the show. Aren't they sweet? Awwwww....

Anyway, me, Zach, and Sarah went to Wal-Mart and got some fish for me. Two fish. So they can have sex so I don't have to pay for more fish. Their names are Milpool and Skittlebrow. They're cool.

Movie of the Day: Office Space.
Person who sucks of the day: Tom Sloane from Daria.

What? Huh? (My ears are plugged.) 'S'that?
How come I can never get over a cold? Everyone passes the stupid virus around, like it's so derned easy for them to get rid of, and then they all dump it on poor, innocent Holly, who can't GIVE THE FRICKIN' COLD *AWAY*! I always get stuck with this kid of bull crap... And now I can't even hear anything.
The phone's probably ringing, and the dog is probably whining to get it, but I can't hear, so I'll just sit here and tell you about what's going on in my utterly fascinating life.
Sarah has been a little freaked out lately. Yesterday, we watched Final Destination together, and she's all, "Oh no! Everything I write about comes true! I've been writing about people dying! It could happen!" I told her never to put me in one of her stories again.
Anyway, what's Sarah said seems to be true for both of us. We're writers. She writes stories about her life, and I write stories about Daria. However, recently, I figured, why not give what Sarah writes about a shot? So, I've been writing a story called "The 1st" about how Sarah and Zach have a baby out of wedlock and get married. Then I get terribly jealous of a girl, and get plastic surgery to look just like her. Then no one can tell us apart, and it's stupid, but it's fun to write. So, my point is, DEAR *GOD*, that had better not come true!
In my other story, "Ideal Identity," which I started writing at the beginning of the summer, my mom found a guy online, and my whole family (including all my friends, somehow), moved to Vegas. Then, in real life, Mom meets this online guy, Mike, and he flies us out to Vegas, where he lives, and starts saying how he wants to marry my mom, and move us out there. Tell me that's not creepy. AH! Sarah and I have got to stop writing, or I'm going to end up all weird and mangled, Zach's going to fall down the stairs and develop amnesia, and 'N Sync is going to come to Sarah's school to saranade her. Well... I guess it wouldn't turn out so bad in Sarah's case... BUT, *I'VE* GOTTA STOP WRITING! I'm sticking to Daria stories...

Sports Suck
God, do I hate football season... and basketball season, and golf season, and every other freaking sport season! ARGH! THERE'S *ALWAYS* SOME SPORT ON TV FOR MY DAD TO BE WATCHING! (Huffs angrily, then calms down). So, here I am on the internet, looking for a means of escape. So, I thought I'd list all of the things I hate, seeing as I'm in such a spiteful mood today... I'm also in a Spriteful mood... BRB, I've gotta get some...
Alright! Sprite *RULES*! Anyhoo... Here are all the things I hate:
1. Sports. ARGH!!!!!!!!!! They give me headaches.
2. Headaches. They're caused by sports.
3. People who beat animals. What a bunch of retards.
4. Eminem. It's hard to believe people actually buy his CDs.
5. Hugh Heffner. The reason there are so many divorces today.
6. Christina Aguilera. You know, there's such a thing as *too* much self-confidence.
7. Undressed. I don't think I've ever watched a show with worse actors, or storylines.
8. School. I've gotta go there on Tuesday... ugh.
9. People who don't like Daria.
10. Pop-up ads.
11. Marge Simpson. What? She sneaks meat juice into Lisa's food!
12. Tom Sloane (Daria's boyfriend). The man must die...
13. Idle Hands. The worse movie ever made.
14. Obsessive-compulsive disorder. It gets on your nerves. Wait... nerves. Nerves. Nerves. Okay.
15. McDonald's. If they'd really love to see me smile, they'd shut their stupid restaurant down.
16. Crackheads. Do I attract those weirdos, or what? They follow me around saying stuff that doesn't make any sense.
17. Running into people who think you're someone else.
18. That chick who went out with my crush into kindergarten, did better than me in first grade, pushed me off my bike in 3rd grade, pushed me off the bleachers in 7th grade, and still hates me for absolutely no reason now.
19. Frizzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
20. People who think I want a bunch of porn mail.
Okay, that should just about do it. The world would be better without these things. Yep...

--Uh, Holly.

DARIA MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOO HOO! Today's not only my stinkin' brother and his friend's birthday! It's the day of the Daria movie, "Is It Fall Yet?" I've been anticipating this day since *last* fall! Expect an angry post here if Daria and Trent haven't hooked up by the end of the movie, and/or if Daria is still with Tom. TOM MUST DIE! As well as Monique. But actually, Tom and Monique should hook up, as Morgan suggested. God, anything to get rid of 'em, right?! And Jane had better hook up with Jesse! Thinks she's too good for the guy just because she has a vocabulary... And Quinn and Sandi need to fight over being president of the Fashion Club more than they do!
