Gabriel, if you call me "fat-angel baby" or "naked-butt baby" or "cupid" or any other name that even conjures up ideas of chubby bare-butt babies with wings ONE MORE TIME, I'll "accidently" put rat-poison in your tofu burger! Don't think I'm joking! My name is CHERUBIM!! CHERUBIM!! As in the BIBLICAL sense!! Those angels second in rank, only under Seraphim! Here's a little lesson for you:
"The Cherubim (singular 'Cherub') are beyond the throne of God; they are the guardians of light and of the stars. It is believed that, although they are removed from man's plane of reality, the divine light that they filter down from Heaven still touches human lives.
"They are sometimes described as having four wings (Ez.1:5) and sometimes with six (Rev.4:7-6), lending more evidence towards the argument of the Seraphim, Cherubim and Ophanim being different designations of the same 'living creature'. They are sometimes interpreted as having four faces such as the 'living creatures' described by Ezekiel (1:5), one of man, ox, lion, and eagle. Although in Rev.4:7-6 John describes 4 seperate 'living creatures'. 'The first living creature was like a lion, the second creature like an ox, the third creature had a face like a man’s, and the fourth creature looked like an eagle flying.'
"Cherubim are considered the elect beings for the purpose of protection. Cherubim guard Eden and the throne of God.
"Their rank among angels is uncertain but they are always categorized in the First Sphere. Some believe them to be an order or class of angels; others hold them to be a class of heavenly beings higher than angels. Cherubim have perfect knowledge of God, surpassed only by the love of the Seraphim."
So there. |

I nailed it!
So, like, I went in for my interview today for that eXodus team thing - and I was expecting it to be, like, REALLY hard to get in (seeing as how I can't do anything superhero-like), but it was SO easy! The girl who was quizzing me was only a couple years older than me (or something like that) and she was really informal - I liked that! She wasn't... personable, really, but she was pretty cool. Anyway, she seemed like she liked my wings and I made sure to show off my wingspan and stuff too. They're still growing, but they span around 15 feet from tip to tip (not that I'm bragging, or anything...). Mom says they'll probably be around 16 to 17 feet by the time I'm done growing. *shrug* Maybe! So, anyway, here's a run down of the day.
I got up at around 7:00am to prepare for the interview. Apparently I interrupted a trip to China or Japan or some Asian country, so I wanted to make sure I looked REALLY good to make up for it. I even PREENED. It took, like, and hour to straighten all my feathers and pluck out the icky ones. Mom helped with that one. Then, I went through all the usual morning steps, but skipped breakfast so I could get there on time. Turns out, I was really early - and that sucked. Apparently, they weren't expecting me until, like, noon or something. In any case, I was finally let in after knocking a lot. It was the girl's kid brother who let me in.
First impressions of the place: WT freaking WUT? The whole place is underground! I'm not that okay with it right now - it'll take a lot of getting used too... I need to ask for a room with a skylight, at LEAST. MUST SEE SKY!!! ;__; It's pretty sweet though - a lot of boxes and stuff lying around. Which is wierd, 'cause I found out they moved in, like, two months ago, or something. I suppose superheros don't really have time to unpack before going of to battle.
The interview itself was a bit awkward. I'd thought about lying and saying that I COULD indeed fly, and maybe mention something about my non-existant super-duper eyes that can see through walls, like that poser Superman. But I thought better of it since they'd all find out that none of that was true soon enough... So, I told the truth. Super powers? I have two huge feathery white growths on my back. Can I fly? No. *sigh* I guess the selling point was that I can cook. Go figure! I never thought that skill would get me a seat on the Justice League. Pretty exciting, actually! So, now I'm officially on the team! I found out that the girl who interviewed me (her name is Aikou Wagner (hope I spelled her name right...)) is the team leader - which is pretty cool, actually. I hear it's pretty rare to have a female head coach on a super hero team. I mean, there was Superman and Batman for the Justice League and Cyclops for the X-Men and Nightcrawler and Captain Britain for Excalibur and Magneto for the Brotherhood and so on and so on and now I'm just rambling, but YEAH! It's pretty sweet!
I met the other team members too. All two of them. Apparently this is a "family" buisness. Aikou (she calls herself Switchblade) runs the operation, but there's also her kid brother Christian (Posiden, I think he called himself) and her boyfriend Gabriel (Blackjack). Gabriel kept throwing his last name at me. It sounded familiar, but I just can't place it. It must have been a pride thing for him. *shrug* Oh! And I got me a code name too! It's Cherubim! Which is pretty cool 'cause it echo's my mom's code name - Seraphim. So it's official now! I have a code name - I am a super hero! Now I just need some super powers. ^^;
Anyway... Oh! I got a new computer! That was fast, no? Aikou gave it to me! And she said she'd help me get an iPod!! HOW SWEET IS THAT! Aikou, if you didn't have a boyfriend, I'd marry you! *joy* This rocks, it really does. I'm not sure what kind of fighting we're gonna do, but this will be awesome. I'm finally making friends! And not just friends, but allies! Brothers and sisters in arms! War buddies! COOL! I'm so stoked!
So, I guess I'm going to be moving in here eventually, though I don't know when. I suppose we'll just have to play it by ear. This is a huge step for me. It's gonna be good, I can tell!
Well, that's all! I'll see you all around! Sorry the entry was so long... ^^; |

Okay, so my house gets struck by lightning and my laptop gets run over by a crazy blue guy in a minivan and that explains my prolonged absence. Sorry about that... Funny story about the laptop death though! I had just dropped off my application to Denny's and was leaving (walking through the parking lot, which is apparently a bad idea around these parts) when this van whips around the corner. I got a glimpse of a very angry blue guy in the driver's seat (he looked kinds familiar, but I can't really place him...) before I dodge-rolled out of the way. Actually, I more, like, fell over and scrambled out of the way, but "dodge-rolled" sounds so much cooler... Anyway, I got out of that mess fine, but, like an wi-fi-addicted lamer, I had my laptop with me and when I rolled out of the way of the crazed over-grown Smurf-man, my laptop slipped right off my shoulder and ended up under the guy's tires. After the van drove off (did the guy even see me?), I grabbed the sorry remains of my life-line and trudged home.
So now I'm at the library, using the lame-o computers here. It's what I get for not having any money with which to buy new laptops. There's lots of kids around. I don't know why they choose to put the computers with internet access in the kid's section... Oh well, I'll deal.
SO, in other news! My mom told me about this thing - a job, I guess. Something to do with her old job with eXodus or however you spell it with the random capital and lowercase letters. She tells me it's high time I did something like this - that it'll help me grow up and gain character. All I asked was what it paid. She said it would pay more than I'm getting now. I said, "Good point." So that's my new job, I guess! I think there's some kind of interview thing I have to go in for, but I'm not quite sure about the details. I hope my boss likes me... And I hope the fact that I can't really fly at all won't hinder my getting in. After all, what's a super hero without super powers? Maybe I'll have to fake it or something... I dunno. Oh well! I'm up for a challenge.
All right, that's all! There's a storm brewing and I better get off the computer! Talk to y'all later. |

So, it's totally 3am (I can tell because of the little clocky thing in the corner of the computer screen) and I'm hyped up on MDX. I'm sitting outside on the roof of my mom's apartment complex, looking at the moon and listening to all those cars driving by, driving by, driving by... and it's freaking annoying... I wish I could afford an mp3 player, or at least a sound card and some decent headphones for my laptop. You know what would help with that? A JOB!! LOL! It's a bit tricky getting a job in this town when you've got two frickin' big wings sticking out of your back. *siiigh* Oh well, roll with the punches and all that.
Dude... that car totally just crashed into that phone pole. Oh, wait... Naw, he's backing away. He's okay.
ANYWAY! YAY NEW YORK!! So, anyway... my day... Uhhh... It was pretty uneventful, actually. I went out to get some groceries. Mom's a bit of a wreck right now, so I thought I'd make her dinner. So I went out this morning to get her some food stuffs. I made it to the store just fine and I bought my foods just fine. My wings are really sensitive, but they can be hidden pretty well. I did get some stares, but I think I made out just fine. No one called the cops, right? Right! I did good. Anyway, after I went to the store, I got back and set some of the meat out to thaw. Mmmmm, hamburgers are yum. I went up to my laptop and played some computer games until it was time for me to go see... WAIT FOR IT.... V FOR VANDETTA!!
All I have to say is NATALIE PORTMAN IS HOT EVEN WHEN SHE LOOKS LIKE A SKINHEAD!! Wooow! That movie kicked so much burro! Man, I wish I was a masked terrorist making out with Natalie Portman... Honestly, that was one of the best movies I've ever seen, certainly the best one I've seen this year. CAN'T WAIT FOR X3! That's X-Men Movie 3. DUUDE! There's totally a guy with blond hair and wings like me! LOLORZ~ Can't wait, can't wait. Superman can bite my big fat behind.
Well, the little clocky thing is telling me I should sneak back inside, so I'll wrap up my day. After the movie I went home and made the Burgers of Ham for mom and me. After dinner, she went to her room and I grabbed my laptop and came out here. So... I've been out here since, like, eight.
I'm tired now. Time to call it a night. Write later, I suppose. Hope people find me... I'm a bit anti-social. Not because I choose to be, though! Anyway, that's all. 'Night! |
