Sunday, July 6, 2003 09:45 p.m. No one came yet. Okura calmed down. Gabe not back yet. Was about to go out. Found out Jomei already went. Toshiro forced me to stay. He said we have enough people gone already. Things starting to get boring. Especially when you can write your week in a few sentences. Something needs to happen. ---------------------------- Friday, July 4, 2003 10:06 p.m. I get home only to find out Gabe's taken off, on his own. And suddenly, all that stress has come back to me. Well, no time for sleep, I have to go find him. He left a note saying he took a bus. Either he wants to be found, or he just didn't think about someone looking at past bus schedules. Whatever, he won't have gone far, unless he hitch hiked. Christ, if he hitch hiked...he had better be ok when I find him. ---------------------------- Friday, July 4, 2003 11:04 p.m. -Journal-san Mission: F.O.F [Find our friends] -Out to find Gabe and Mike, don't know how, just will. ^-^ Wish luck! ---------------------------- Thursday, July 3, 2003 10:33 p.m. It surprising how much can happen in just a few days. Mike took off last weekend, no big surprise there. But now Gabe's taken off too. Even the thought of him going somewhere alone is odd. But I won't worry, well, not too much anyway. If I know Gabe, he'll come back after a bit, and Mike always comes back. I just hope neither of them does anything stupid. I called Toshiro and invited him to the beach. The weathers been really nice, and I bet the waters perfect for swimming ^^ Maybe there'll be some waves too, I want to dig out my body board, see if I still know how to stay on it. D- ---------------------------- Thursday, July 3, 2003 09:19 p.m. Entry #20 I guess my cooking skills aren't as good as I thought. I tried to make a pie. Its now a frisbee for Misho, the pan won't even come out. Well, I visited Damien without anything. It was fun; it always struck me that everytime I see couples, they don't really talk. I think its nice that Damien and I always have something to chat about. He wanted to take me to the beach. It sounds really nice. ^_^ I thought the weekend will be the best time. Uwa~ It will be so nice to get out in the sun. Then today Damien called to talk again. He mentioned that Mike and Gabe were missing. He said he wasn't going to do anything; it was going to turn out fine. I couldn't help being a little concerned, so I called Ken. He agreed with Damien, not to do anything and that it would turn out fine. I felt better but Jomei overheard the conversation. Sometimes he cares....too much. He didn't say anything, but I know myself that he'll go out and look for them. =_=; Somehow I know he'll find them too. He needs to know that sometimes people don't really need help. Well, I do hope it turns out better, whatever happened that is. ---------------------------- Wednesday, July 2, 2003 09:35 p.m. Goodbye to you Goodbye to everything I though I knew You were the one I loved The one thing that I tried to hold on to... He's still not back. I sit here, waiting, thinking that any minute now he'll come through the door, as surly as ever. And for that I feel undescribably stupid. I told him off, and I got what I wanted. But now I'm playing scared, hiding with my tail between my legs. I am such a hypocrite. I won't wait anymore. I've been told that I'm naive, innocent even. I'm sick of it. I went and got a bus ticket earlier. I'm not sure where the bus is going, I didn't really ask. I don't care at this point anyway. I just want to leave. God, I bet this is kind of what Mike felt like when he left. How ironic. The bus leaves at 10:30 tonight, so if I want to make it I had better get moving. -Gabe ---------------------------- Wednesday, July 2, 2003 09:52 p.m. So, it ends up Okura is near abandoned. And it turns out that he has to stay with me until social services finds a foster family. On top of that, Jomei is staying over this Saturday. What a life. Okura isn't very happy to hear that he has to leave sooner or later. I think he's grown attached to my place and dare I say, me. I remember yesterday morning I found him curled next to me. That kid is just making it harder. Its twistedly funny how desparately he tries to make himself useful so he can stay. I think he tried to make his bed once. I wouldn't know, it looked the same when he 'finished'. I think he gave up half way. And every time I get ready to go out, he perks up and in a second he has his shoes on, ready to follow me where ever I go. And he clings well. Like lint. God, I know he doesn't belong here, but I hope no one will come to pick him up. ---------------------------- Monday, June 30, 2003 09:48 p.m. First, this is not Mike, it's Gabe. Second, I have no idea where Mike is. I've looked through his room and read back a few pages in here, but there's no clues to where he might be. It's my fault too. He took me out to a rave the other night, and we ended up having a fight over...actually, I don't know what we were fighing about exactly. It was something about the way I was dressed, then another subject got thrown in. I ended up yelling things I never thought I'd say. But I meant them. I just wish he hadn't taken it so hard...I hate it here without him too. It's lonely, and just...odd. I hope he comes back soon... ---------------------------- Monday, June 30, 2003 10:26 p.m. Ah, Journal-san, its a drowsy summer. A summer to laze around...>< Too bad I can't, but I've been meaning to ask about my vacation for work. I haven't had one in a while...but what to do...well, lots of things. Maybe I should spend some nights at Ken's place. =3 He told me he had a tenet. ^-^ So soon! Well, I hope Mr. Tenet doesn't mind me, but then who does? Ah, but what about Seiji? That guy can't live without home cooking, especially mine. Oh well, I guess he'll have to live. I mean, what did he do before he came to us? Something at least....I'm getting disturbing thoughts of Seiji once living in a dumpster...stop thinking stop thinking...>_< Psh, he'll be fine. Well, then its settled, a few nights at Ken's then. Then after that...who knows? I'm sure something is about to happen, I'm not sure what, but I'm excited already. ---------------------------- Saturday, June 28, 2003 09:21 p.m. It's been a real scorcher these last few days. I'm not complaining though. It's great to be able to just lie out in the sun and tan now that everything's cleaned up around here. I think I'm gonna have to find by folding chairs and head to the beach soon. I wonder if Toshiro likes the beach, maybe I can drag him along with me ^^ As for a new summer activity I thought I might try out mountain biking. Biking is fun, good exercise, and it's always nice to get out and look at nature. Nothing is really going on around here now, it's so quiet. Nice in a way, but boring too. I'll have to go looking for a bike soon. D- ---------------------------- Saturday, June 28, 2003 06:11 p.m. Entry #19 Ugh...the heat is unbearable, and I can't think. I didn't win the president thing, but I'm not really worried about that now. I just realized how old I am, 17 going on to 18. I'm going to college. I want to become a Physicist. I haven't decided what one I want to go to yet. Before I had time to search for any good ones, they wrote to me. I want to pick the closest to home, but the closest is a good 25 miles. Surely I can't ride my bicycle and get there on time, and I won't bother Seiji to take me there. So, I'm considering staying in a dorm they have available there. I haven't told Jomei yet, but I think I will soon. I'm reluctant to leave. I'm still thinking of other ways to get to my school without leaving. Maybe if I told Jomei, he would help me find other ways. Ah, well we'll see. Damien called the other day. Its so nice to hear from him. I wanted to meet him in person though, I think I'll surprise visit him tomorrow. I could use the break, preparing for college and what not. Hmmm, maybe I should bring something too...well, I guess I'll have to see if I learned any cooking skills from Home Ec. ---------------------------- Friday, June 27, 2003 09:47 p.m. One of these days it all comes together One those days that goes on forever Think I sounds crazy? Maybe, whatever What's it all about? You know, I think I know less about Mike than I thought I did. But then again, you can never completely know a person I guess. You would not believe how many people he knows o.o At least 5 people stop by a day, whether he's at work or not. The other night I went out with him and his friend Torren. Torren's nice, but a little strange...And I had Kahlua. Hard to describe the taste, but it's good, and it kinda burns going down, which is neat. And then a while ago when I was with Mike, I met a guy named Tristian. Mike was a bit of jerk, but then, when is he not? Tristian's nice, and he has some interesting hobbies, to say the least. I want to go to a rave. I told Mike and he looked at me kinda funny, then said sure. I'm not quite sure what to expect, but I do know the music's good. And I'm not sure why, but I want to get a guitar. Just an accoustic one, see what it's like. Thought maybe it'd be fun to learn and instrument you know. -Gabe ---------------------------- Friday, June 27, 2003 05:24 p.m. Eh, what a night. Kids aren't easy to handle, much less one. Yup, I have a tenet in my one man apartment. His name is Okura. He wears glasses but he's a tough little one. He's in my 6-7 PM class. When lessons were over, all the parents came, picked up their kids, routine things. I went to the backroom to put things back, and came back finding Okura looking intently at the door, at the verge of tears, waiting for someone. I know how this feels, my ma wasn't that responsible...kind of flakey. I offered to call his parents, and he barely nodded. I've only seen his mom, her face is kind of sunken and dead looking. Well, when I called, no one answered. The mom's workplace said she didn't come to work that day. I asked Okura about it, if he knows where his mom went. He said that his mom packed alot of things and he thought that she was going to take him to wherever she was going. Apparently not, I thought to myself. Well, we stuck around till 9:00 to see if anyone would come. Nobody came; Tori volunteered to stick around and answer any calls. He lives right above the school, so its no problem for him. So...I took Okura home with me. He was in shock last night, and now he's taking a nap, still tired out, poor guy. Hope it turns out better.... ---------------------------- Wednesday, June 25, 2003 09:54 p.m. School is out, not that I care, but it does mean more to do. And now Gabe is staying with me, for the whole summer. Sure we're best friends, but they say if you want to stay friends with someone, never live with them. I think they're might be some truth to that statement. Who knows, he went out with me and Tor the other night. We went to a pub and it looked like he was having a good time. Christ I can just see it. He'll either loosen up and start doing stuff outside of the rules, or end up corrupted. Wanted to get out of the house today, go for a walk, think about stuff, so I did. Ran into Jomei and some guy. Jomei was holding a cat and talking with the guy. I remember Gabe or someone saying Jomei had got a cat. No clue who the guy was though. Jomei let me hold his cat, I think it's name is Misho. I'm not much of an animal person, but it was ok I guess. Didn't say anything to that guy, Seitro or something. Something about him seems off, but then again I think that about most people. So I'm an antisocial prick, get over it. ---------------------------- Wednesday, June 25, 2003 09:42 p.m. Uwa~ journal-san I love my cat Misho! At first it seemed pretty difficult to take care of him, but now that I read that book that Toshiro gave me, its alot easier to understand how to care for my Misho. XD Today I brought Misho everywhere with me. I let him wander around my work place. He's so darling; he was so nice to the customers..^_^; some he scared away. After my shift was over, I went out and around. I ran into Seitaro again. I was looking forward to some ice cream, so I insisted on buying some for Seitaro too. When I went inside to buy some ice cream I asked Seitaro to hold my cat. He looked surprised that I brought my cat, but said nothing. When I came outside, I saw Mike about to pass our way. Then I remembered Mike didn't get to see my cat. Plus I haven't seen him in a while. So I shouted to him. I handed Seitaro his ice cream and waved him over. I let Mike hold my cat, and after all was said and done, I found him eyeing Seitaro suspiciously. I promptly introduced each other; they didn't seem to talk to each other much. When Mike left, Seitaro glanced over to where Mike was walking. =| I hope that next time won't be so stiff. G'night! ---------------------------- Tuesday, June 24, 2003 09:23 p.m. Ah it's been a while since I've written ^^; I've just been really busy around here now that school's out. The dance was a big hit, and no one spiked the punch thankfully. Then there was Jomei's birthday. We finally got an idea, a fireworks display, and I think it went quite well ^^ The school and houses are pretty much empty now, people have gone to visit friends and relatives, or find summer jobs. Gabe went to stay at Mike's apartement for the summer, I just hope they don't get into any trouble... The last few days have been pretty busy. The staff has been outside hauling equipment and things inside until next year. It hasn't been easy either, the weather seems bent against us. But it'll be done soon and then that's it for a while. Now I have to find a summer hobbie. Last year it was hiking, I'll have to think of something new. And I think I'll give Toshiro a call tomorrow, it's been a while. D- ---------------------------- Thursday, June 12, 2003 09:38 p.m. Entry #18 ^_^ Wow the last few days have been exciting. We have a new member of the family, Misho, the cat that is Jomei's shadow. They took to each other quickly. Jomei loves his cat so much! And on Jomei's birthday, it turned out that Gabe, Mike, and Damien set up something special for him. ^.^ They set up a fireworks display and we all came along. It was so nice, and Jomei enjoyed it a lot. At first he was startled at the loud noise that you get when you first light fireworks. He clung on to Mike and wouldn't let go until he got used to it. It was hard for Mike though because he was the one lighting the fireworks. Damien offered to take Mike's place because of Jomei, he causes trouble sometimes, so that Mike wouldn't burn his finger or anything. In the end, it was a really great experience. ---------------------------- Monday, June 9, 2003 08:47 p.m. We once walked out on the beach And once I almost touched your hand Oh, how I dreamed to finally say such things Then only to pretend Today was a lot of fun. Since it's the last week of school before exams, we get free time. And it was near perfect out, not too hot, not too cold, and a bit of a breeze. I was walking outside, watching the others play games and stuff, and Skyler asked if I wanted to play rugby with him and a few others. I'm not built for rugby at all, but I said I'd give it a shot. It was tackle rugby too, luckily I can run fast. That is such a fun game. Sure I got taken down a few times, but the good outweighed the bad in the end =3 And on Friday there's going to be a huge school dance. It'll be so exciting, meeting new people and stuff. The guys and girls don't really get any chances to talk except at lunch, and then is just not the best time I guess. Hopefully it won't stop anyone from having a good time though. When we heard that it was going to be a medieval theme, Lorne jabbed me and said, quite loudly, that maybe I should get 'dressed' up. Ha, ha, real funny. And tomorrow is the 10th, Jomei's big day. I managed to drag Mike back here, and then we found Damien. Then with the three of us thinking, we ended up with an idea. I had a song called "Just Watch the Fireworks" playing when Mike suggested it. We thought maybe Damien could go get some fireworks, then I could set them up in a nice clear spot, then hopefully Mike could get Jomei to go there with him. We figure if we changed the wicks on the fireworks and Mike lighted them at the same time, they'd all go off seperately. Damien and I thought it would look really neat, Mike just shrugged and agreed. We've each got Jomei a card and something small, and this would be like something from all of us, in a way. So tomorrow morning I'm gonna grab the fireworks from Damien, set them up, tell Mike where they are, and pray he can get Jomei there sometime after it gets dark. You know, this kinda sounds cheezy, and none of us even know if Jomei like's fireworks...but no time for second thoughts @_@ Let's just hope he likes it! -Gabe ---------------------------- Monday, June 9, 2003 09:14 p.m. Ugh, my head is throbbing. Partly because of all the animals I saw and smelled. It ain't pretty. I went out with Toshiro to find a pet. I saw this really nice snake. I wanted Jomei to get a snake, because they're really easy to take care of and good to scare some neighbors with. But it seemed Toshiro couldn't handle a snake. He kind of paled and thought a cat would be more agreeable. I asked how he would know what Jomei would want, because you need to be calm around snakes too or they bite, but Toshiro said that it couldn't be something that someone didn't like, and he left it at that. He went on to the furry animals. Boring. Then Seiji dropped by. He wanted a furry animal too, more like a cat. So, we went cat shopping. We split up and went to choose a cat. I picked a cat, and we all looked at what the other chose. Seiji had a black cat with white ears. Toshiro picked a kitten. I picked...well, as soon as they saw it they laughed. I indignantly asked what was wrong, and they told me it wasn't a cat. It was a ferret. Well, christ all fuzzy things look the same! So we all went for Seiji's idea. The cat wasn't that bad anyway. But he looked at our fingers like food. Toshiro bought a book on how to care for cats. If there's a book on how to care for cats, there should be a book on how to care for people in general. Oh well, maybe I'll write one. Bought the cat but left it at the store to pick up tomorrow. Sure hopes Jomei likes a cat. ---------------------------- Saturday, June 7, 2003 11:05 p.m. This was supposed to be a nice relaxing day, but it wasn't. Gabe called at like, 9 in the morning and woke me up saying something about wasting the day and how late it was. Late? Late?! It was only 9! I could have slept till 4 in the afternoon, then it would have been late. Next thing I know, he's over here dragging me out of bed, since I just went back to sleep after he called. So annoying >< Then we went to the mall and looked around for hours @_@ Seems Jomei's b-day is soon, extremely so. Why don't people tell me these things?! So then we sat around for another few hours brainstorming. Where the hell was Damien to do this? No good lazy brother of mine, he's better at that stuff than me. We couldn't really think of anything though...I know he likes cooking, but what do you get a person that likes cooking? A cook book sure, but he's got those...I could ask him what he likes. That would be messed up though. We'll just have to keep thinking. Argh, and with so little time left too. Maybe I'll think of something in my sleep. Later~ ---------------------------- Saturday, June 7, 2003 10:03 p.m. Wah! Journal-san its sooo close to my birthday! 3 days! But I still don't like the thought of being old =X I hope I don't become a mean old grampa. Its kind of hard to think of me as old too. ._., um let me think...gray hair, wrinkled face...T_T I'm too cute to be old!! ^^; Ah whoops, I said that out loud, and Seiji heard. He told me that if that were true then he was too beautiful to die. o_o Seiji is weird sometimes...still nice though...like that time he...=P I'm babbling again, well, overall, birthdays are nice, but its sad to know that life is ending year by year. It would be horrible for someone to die sooner then needed. Today I had to go shopping. For that leak in the sink. In the hardware store. I fear the hardware store a lot. But Toshiro made me go [;_;] and stay there for an hour. I tried to find the thing that helps leaks, but I got lost...its soo big! And then I was walking and then all of a sudden the ground was rumbling and a giant forklift nearly ran me over! I shuddered, it was too much for me, I quickly asked for help and got what i needed and ran out. =P Bad experience. ---------------------------- Friday, June 6, 2003 11:04 p.m. The play is over with, and now it's on to bigger things. I'm not sure if that's good or bad ^^; The theme for the dance is going to be a medieval one, which lot's of people thought obvious considering the plays. We're going to make a few props, bring in hay and all sorts of stuff. The committee is going to find some antique lanterns and sconces to light the gym. I think it'll be a bit dark, but that's what they want. When I went and saw Toshiro the other day he mentioned Jomei's birthday. And then I was thinking about it, and I don't really know what Jomei likes, but I want to get him something. Hmm, I'll go find Gabe, maybe if we brainstorm we could think of something... D- ---------------------------- Friday, June 6, 2003 08:40 p.m. Entry #17 Wow alot happened in two days...Ken actually moved out and Gabe's play went on. Damien described it to me, I heard it turned out really well. @_@ But I feel for Gabe having to dress like a girl, imagine if I had to dress like one o_o The campaign has ended, and the students will vote on monday. I wonder... Ah, Damien's flowers are wilting, and they were so beautiful too. Jomei's birthday is coming up, and we haven't really figured out what to give him. I suggested to get him a pet, because I know he will give all of his love and care to it, and since ken is gone and all, well not completely gone...Ken has some part in this too. We all agreed a cat would work, because cats are calm and not energetic. Hopefully it will help Jomei calm down -_-;; he needs to do that. We're going to look for one starting tomorrow, not all at once of course, because jomei will get suspicious. Seiji will look first, and then me and then Ken. ^_^ I hope Jomei likes it! ---------------------------- Tuesday, June 3, 2003 06:46 p.m. I'm sorry, I can't lie I wasted too much time Drowning, I've been blind But I've opened up my eyes I know I said I was happy that all this play stuff was almost over, but I'm not. It's the big one this time, no more preparing, no more room for mistakes or slip ups. I am so nervous now @_@ I keep seeing myself up there, I'll go to walk across the stage...and trip. Just like that. Then people will laugh, and all will be a disaster >< I have to stop thinking about stuff like that. If I think about it, it might happen. I just can't help it though...One good thing to come out of all this though, Skyler and his cronies are acting more human now. I think they understand they aren't as perfect as they thought they were. And Skyler's being a lot nicer too. He's stopped bugging me about my costume, and he's stopped flipping the skirt up...finally. I think I'll read over my lines again tonight, make sure they're all up there ^^; -Gabe ---------------------------- Tuesday, June 3, 2003 08:58 p.m. I started taking down my stuff. One by one. I took a deep breath, as I know even though I was mad that time, its hard to leave them. But I know I had to do it someday. Now the walls are bare, and I move out tomorrow morning. I found this ok place with a nice view, not exactly a mansion. I will start training the little ones this saturday. And that damned Tori will be there. I plan to have a 'mock' fight with to demonstrate. Heh, that bastard is going to feel a world of hurt. Gabe has his play tomorrow, I'll have to hurry, I don't want to miss it. Don't want to make him nervous, I'll just stand in the back or something. I haven't seen him in his costume, I wanted to be surprised. And yet I have a feeling I will.... ---------------------------- Monday, June 2, 2003 09:52 p.m. So I told Nick that he should start packing up his stuff soon. When he asked why, I told him that I don't need his help for rent and that he could get the hell out. He seemed pretty pissed, but no matter, the apartement's under my name, so if he tries to do anything legal wise, it won't work. By next week I'll have this place to myself. I think I'll go see Gabe's play tomorrow night. Even if it ends up sucking, seeing him in a dress will be enough XD I'll have to try and not laugh to hard. But then again, it might be ok. Hah, I remember reading Romeo and Juliet in like, 7th grade. I feel sorry for him, some of those scenes are pretty...difficult to get through, especially when you know what's being said and done >_> I keep thinking about getting another job. Two is pretty fair, but I'm only working part time at both of them. I'll look around, if I can get another part time, I'll be set. And that way if one doesn't work out, I've got the others to fall back on. Later~ ---------------------------- Monday, June 2, 2003 04:19 p.m. Journal-san, I can't believe its June. ^_^ My birthday is coming up~! June 10! The Big 2-0! I feel so old ._. I wonder how I will be in the future. Come to think of it, my future doesn't look all that bright...I'm just going to be in my coffee shop, until I'm old[er]. Ah, that reminds me, the name of my little coffee shop. I finally thought of a name. I want to call it, 'confecionate.' =3 I like it alot. You know, because a sweet is called a confection and affectionate is caring and warm, I get confectionate! It might be too long to put on a sign tho, I shall have to keep thinking! >< Ken approached me today telling me that he was going to move out Wednesday. I told him no problem. He looked surprised, and then said, 'ok...' Yeah, but as soon as he turned around I lunged and clung myself to his legs. Ken yelled at me to get off, and I told him that I wanted to get off by all means but my body wouldn't let go. Ken rolled his eyes and squirmed away. And I followed him all day. Like a dog. I finally let him alone when he said he would come sleep over on my birthday. My body was satisfied. Shwee~ ---------------------------- Saturday, May 31, 2003 09:56 p.m. I hope it stops raining soon, or we won't be able to get out for classes .__. But then again, it's not like there's nothing to do. The play will be on this week, and then once that's over there's more planning ahead. I can't help but be proud of the students, especially after seeing all the work they put into this play ^^ I'm sure it'll be great, I'll have to take pictures and stick them up in the class room. Then we have to plan the dance, I wonder what the theme will be this year. Last year it was a kind of phantasia one, lot's of lights and sparkly stuff o.o Hmm, maybe we'll hold a vote to pick the theme. I think I'll go see Toshiro tomorrow, whether it's raining or not. I think I'll get some flowers for him to. Rain may be unpleasant at times, but it helps give life to beautiful things :3 D- ---------------------------- Saturday, May 31, 2003 10:08 p.m. Entry #16 Ugh. The weather has been really horrible. It rained. It seems its going to rain forevermore. I always think when it is raining, the world is crying. The world must be really sad today. Its done nothing but rain. I've been cooped up inside, but I decided to make the best of it. I read some books in our bookshelf. I've also spent some time with the others. Seiji plays the piano beautifully. I didn't know that, so I've actually learned a lot from everybody. Jomei has a collection of stuffed animals hiding in his closet. He says that in case he doesn't have pillows he uses a doll instead. I can see why; they're all so soft and comfy ='3 Then I learned about Ken. I've never really been up to his room in the attic. Its really cool. I can't believe he did that all by himself. His room is pretty dim though, so I volunteered to help install lights. We're still working on it. Ken's not so bad, even if he push Seiji down the stairs. And if he keeps playing tricks on Jomei and occasionally me...I wonder how Damien's doing. ---------------------------- Friday, May 30, 2003 11:04 p.m. I just wanna get out Stuck inside of this Waiting for something else Waiting to exist Can you offer me help? Help from what I missed, I missed, I... Finally! We've had dress rehearsals, we've had memorizations sessions. Now finally, we'll perform. Those rehearsals go on for hours too, I'm glad they're over. But now it's the big one. Now we get to see if we retained any of this stuff, and if we have enough guts to get up in front of more than class mates. I really hope no one chokes >.< Everyone's worked hard though, and the last rehearsal was near perfect. But still, it's so different in front of an actual audience...I'm sure it will go fine, be positive and all. My goal for this weekend is to take a really long walk. I haven't had the chance 'cause of the play, but now I do. And it's been so nice out too. Everyday it's warm and sunny, real summer weather. Something to definetly look forward to. -Gabe ---------------------------- Friday, May 30, 2003 09:13 p.m. Other day, that doctor guy of Jomei's came by. Toshiro answered the door. Everything about that guy is unnatural. His hair is white for god sakes. He wears his doctor clothes everywhere. I just don't like him at all. He came around looking for Jomei. Good thing Jomei was out...I shoved that guy out the door. Over my dead body that guy will come in this house. Jomei is too good for him... ---------------------------- Thursday, May 29, 2003 07:27 p.m. Ugh, I got home from work today, and Shey was sitting in the living room. I asked why he was here and he said because he needed a place to keep his 'stuff'. As it turns out, all this stuff of his is stolen. 2 shirts, a belt, and a hat. That kid is freaking klepto! He was so paranoid too, but who can blame him? If the cops find him, he's going straight to Juvie. So I have his the goods. What was I supposed to do? I don't want it here, but I can't let him keep it. He's a friend, the least I can do is help a little. Besides, what are the chances of the cops finding it here? Bad I'm sure. Anyway, I quit school. I haven't been there in a week, why bother going back. I found another job, so with the 2 it's like full time work. And once I save up a bit, I can kick Nick out, score. Who knows, some people do really well even without a huge education. I need to go out soon and do something, I've been in recluse mode for to long. Later~ ---------------------------- Thursday, May 29, 2003 01:58 p.m. ^_^; Journal-san, I got a letter from Raine today. ._. He's still looking for someone to be my 'love' or something....isn't love an emotion? I didn't really understand...I went to work, it was fine as usual. We had a little food fight in the back, those 2 always fight 9_9 Do you know hard it is to get peanut butter out of hair? When I got the peanut butter out of my hair I stepped out to go home. I was asked by a man and his wife where to get to the local school. Which is fine in its own way, but the way he referred to me. He said, 'miss.' -_- I don't really understand how I can be mistaken for a girl! More than Toshiro! Is it because of my hair being tied up? ;_; I don't understand...guys can have long hair too T^T....except dreads, those are just too freaky. I mean, look at Seiji. He has hair down to his waist. No one calls him 'miss.' They actually kind of edge away and call him punk from a distance. Well, I do need a change, I've had this hair style for 2 years. Maybe I should ask people before I do. >< I don't know I just confused myself. ---------------------------- Tuesday, May 27, 2003 09:30 p.m. I got to skip my own classes this afternoon :3 More than half the students in the class have something to do with the play. Since I'm helping anyway, I got the rest of the kids to help out too ^^ We had to build 5 sets and get them painted, so the extra help was accepted gratefully. We didn't quite get them all done though, we kinda had a mock battle with the prop swords ^^; It was a lot of fun, even if Mr.Shore did yell at us. There's going to be even more to do soon to. It's almost end of year, and the students have to take a bunch of exams. I remember those, I always dreaded them to. So with that coming up, we first have to make the exams. Luckily I'm not a core achademics teacher ^^; And also at the end of the year, there's a school wide dance. So that needs to be organized... Well, I'm gonna try not to think to much about it to much, it's still a few weeks away. D- ---------------------------- Tuesday, May 27, 2003 09:01 p.m. Entry #15 ^_^ I met one my of competitors today. She seems determined, that's really good in a president. Fierce competition it is. I just have to meet my other competitor, there are 2 that are going against me. Seiji hinted the other day that I might need a campaign manager. ^^; Ah, I don't think I need one; there are alot of people talking good things about me. The most I can do is put up flyers. Actually, I made some, but someone has already put some up...o0; weird, but I put mine up anyway. I didn't know that people thought so highly of me...Well, if I do win I will try my very best~ Ken is thinking about going to that play of Gabe's; I'm not sure if he's interested in the play or just Gabe or both...¬¬ No telling what Ken can do...Jomei came back from Mike's place. He looked tired, so I fixed him some tea. Not to boast, but the one thing I'm good at in cooking is tea. ^^ I usually drink tea. Hmm, someone's at the door. ---------------------------- Monday, May 26, 2003 08:13 p.m. I'll look to like, if looking liking move: But no more deep will I endart mine eye Than your consent gives strength to make it fly. Do you know what that means? Coz I don't =.= That's what the lines of this play are like, all old English, what fun. And now Ken know's about the play. Could this be any more humiliating? I have to say stuff like that in front of an audience that may include Ken, and wear a dress while doing so. Oh woe is me, nay faith, I plee, have me play not a lady, I shall not bear it well. Soon I'll be talking like that all the time e_e And the working conditions... Skyler, the guy playing Romeo, is such a jerk. What he needs is to get off his plastic throne and get things right. If he flips up my dress one more time, I swear I'll take that plastic sword of his and smack him with it >_> And if I get one more cat call, I'm going to refuse to wear that dress. It's too tight anyway >< Ah, I needed to vent, one can only take so much you know? I complain, but I don't mind so much. Besides, the show must go on! -Gabe ---------------------------- Monday, May 26, 2003 08:03 p.m. I found out yesterday that Gabe was playing Juliet in Romeo and Juliet. I'll have to see if he looks just as good as a girl, ha. I think I know where his school is. Ah, I'll just ask Toshiro. Rehni came over today, cue the roll eyes. She has no business even coming 5 miles of this house. She even brought a friend for God's sake. I swear, rehni is worse with her friend. Her 'friend' tried to drag me away, stupid fangirl. I just got run over by them yesterday and one is in the house trying to claim me or something. I barely escaped through the balconey. I went through town, thought I might as well find Gabe's school. When I came back she was gone. But this really annoying music was on. I looked in the CD player, some group called G.O.D. Must be one of her weird CDs. I should really break it in half.... ---------------------------- Sunday, May 25, 2003 10:24 p.m. So I ended up calling Tor to take me to the doctors. And the doctor sent me to the hospital. Why? I had alcohol poisoning, big surprise. So I had to stay there for a few nights while the iv pumped drugs and shit into me. I goddamn hate hospitals. They're the creepiest places on earth. They released me Saturday afternoon, needed the bed for someone else, figures. I'm just glad to be out of there. Jomei came over a few hours ago. Nick answered the door, I hope he didn't scare Jomei...Ugh, I probably looked like hell too, I haven't eaten in days, and I still have the iv in my hand, incase I need to go back. He brought a pot pie thing, those are good. I'm still waiting to eat it though. I tryed to eat cereal this morning, and I almost died. It's all those stupid drugs in me -_- You know I'm glad Jomei visited. It's a hell of a lot better than being around Nick, and he's just so happy it brightened things up. I wonder what could make someone so happy all the time...Whatever it is, I could use some >>; ---------------------------- Sunday, May 25, 2003 07:07 p.m. Journal-san! How are you? I'm fine, I'm about to go visit Mike again. I made something to take with me, I hope he likes pot pie...I haven't seen him in a while, it'll be nice to see him. Anyway, everybody went out today. I don't know where Ken went; I'm kind of suspicious...I hope I remember where he lives ._. I don't want to go through the phone book again, it was hard >.< Ha, I took you with me Journal-san, I'm kind of waiting for Mike to come, nobody seems to be home...ah, wait I think I hear someone coming... ---------------------------- Friday, May 23, 2003 10:42 p.m. I'm going to be helping with the school play :3 Behind the scenes mostly, but it still part of it. I'm going to help build the backdrops and props, paint, set up the stage. It'll be fun I'm sure, see how creative the crew and I can be. Got to see some of the students getting costumes and such. You should see some of them, like the nurse outfit, it's huge! The actor has to wear this huge padded suit under it, what fun ^^...You should have seen Warren's face. He got the part of the nurse, and when he saw the costume, his jaw hit the floor. Poor kid, but he's not the only one with something odd to wear. I saw Gabe moping around the set to. I rarely see him because he's in none of my classes, he's a sixth year, I teach eight and nine's. His costume: A dress. These kids are brave to do this, I know I could never wear something like that, and in front of an audience ^^; Other than that today was routine. It was past-week's homework hand in, so I have piles of marking to get to... D- ---------------------------- Friday, May 23, 2003 08:44 p.m. Entry #14 Today I went to school, of course. I just came in time to catch that its time to pick people to fill in school elections...I soon as I sat down someone nominated me for president! Imagine that! I tried to refuse, but everyone seemed to think I was great for the job. I didn't want to disapoint, but still, I'd prefer something smaller. Now I have to campaign and so much other work. I have no idea where this will lead me. Seiji is in full support that I will do a good job. I think he just wants me to work harder. He knows I slack time to time. Erg, good luck to me I guess.... ---------------------------- Wednesday, May 21, 2003 06:23 p.m. Oh dear god...I think I'm gonna die. I feel so sick, I can't even get up >< I couldn't go to school or work, I've been curled up in bed since I woke up. I don't know why it hurts so much, my stomach, my head, ugh. I was fine yesterday, I think. Maybe I ate something bad or something. I need to go to the doctors before I start frickin' convulsing. Where the hell is is that prick? Nick usually stops to change after school before he goes out, so where the fuck is he?! If he doesn't show up soon I'm going to have to call Tor or Shey. Oh hell...I think I'm gonna puke >< ---------------------------- Wednesday, May 21, 2003 06:13 p.m. Today was a free day for me Journal-san. I really didn't know what to do, everybody went out. So I just sat down and watched TV for 10 hours...8 am to 6pm. They have a lot of weird shows nowadays. Real life shows I think...I watched Fear Factor, and these people had to do stuff for money. >0 at first it started out ok, but then the people had to eat some part of a pig, I didn't really catch what they said it was. Then the doorbell rang. I went to open it and I found Seitaro-san! Long time no see he says. I was happy to have company but I wondered how he got my address. So I invited him in, and we sat and watched the people eat those things again...then after a while Seitaro told me those were pig testicles. EWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! Seitaro agreed that real life TV show are getting over board. I wouldn't know, I don't watch TV all that often. I watched some other shows, I ran into this show called the Anna Nicole Show. She is so whiney ;>> Seitaro doesn't like her a whole lot so he flipped the channel to Discovery Channel. We watched a documentary on fish. While we were watching, Seitaro-san told me alot of other facts about fish. He knows alot for one man @@; he just left a few minutes ago. I still wonder how he knew my address... ---------------------------- Tuesday, May 20, 2003 06:25 p.m. I want something else To get me through this Semi-charmed kinda life Baby, baby I want something else I'm not listenin' when you say Goodbye- This cannot be happening. They finally posted the cast for the play on the bulletin board in the mainhall. Taylor got Mercutio's part, Lorne got a smaller part, and I got...Juliet @_e I tried to explain to Mr.Shore that I hadn't tried out for it, and that I didn't want the part. He said that I did a good job when I helped out Lorne, and since no one had willingly tried out, he had to pick. I knew this was going to happen, I just didn't think it'd happen to me >< I walked over to Mike's because I haven't talked to him much lately. So I get there, and I told him about the part, and you should have seen him laughing >>; He said I'd be great for the part though, I'm "feminine" enough he said...I could've taken him out right there. He said sorry, but that I would probably do a good job, that's what he meant. So we hung out, talked, then his room mate Nicholai came in. Nicholai is wierd Oo I don't know how to describe it, you'd have to meet him. When he asked who I was, Mike just fingered him, and he went to his room. Hmm yeah, interesting...? Eh, I should read my lines, if I have to play Juliet, I might as well do a good job -_- -Gabe ---------------------------- Tuesday, May 20, 2003 07:19 p.m. SHIT! Them and their stupid act....can't stand it, so much cuteness...I'm about to shudder now...I called my brother, I said sorry and was about to hang up immediately when he squealed. I could just feel the happiness radiate from the phone. He told me that he'll come back next year to see me again...do you know what? Next time I'll just stay in a hotel. Its about time I got my own place anyway. If I do, Jomei will cling to me and refuse to let me go. I'll give it a try nonetheless. When I start work. So frustrated. ---------------------------- Sunday, May 18, 2003 09:56 p.m. I never realized how much I had missed the school till I got back. And I never thought I'd be missed so much either ^^ Some of my students ganged up on me and tried to get to my suitcase to see if I brought stuff back, but Rachel and Travis shooed them off. Then they dragged me to the staff room and made me tell about the trip. So I told them about where we went, and Rachel rifled through my stuff, which I knew she would, and Travis kept giving me coffee, for some reason. Then Jordan stomped in and started complaining about how horrible my students were -_- After Jordan finally left, Travis said that my students had tried to make it hard on him, apparently they don't like him either. It was a really great trip, Rachel and Travis told me how envious they were ^^; I can't wait to get the films developed, then I'll take the pics to Toshiro to see which ones we should keep. I'm sure there are a lot of of great shots :3 Ah, and I think I'm going to be up till dawn after all that caffiene e_e D- ---------------------------- Sunday, May 18, 2003 09:24 p.m. Entry #13 I'm back home...I just came home and Jomei glomped me, and then he told me what was going on with Ken. I knew what to do. Jomei whined adorably and I gave my puppy eyes bit, that always works on Ken ^-^; He just finished calling his brother and then he looked at us and shook his head. Jomei laughed and I grinned. I told everyone about my vacation and Jomei seemed awed...and then Ken asked if Damien and I did anything 'special.' He can be sooo perverted at times =.=; Luckily Seiji slapped duct tape on his mouth and tied him to a chair and told him to shut up and listen. Jomei felt sorry for Ken so he sat next to him and leaned his head on Ken's leg. Jomei is so nice to Ken...After finishing my description of my trip, everybody retired to their rooms. Damien was very sweet to take me to Europe, I really have to do something for him... ---------------------------- Saturday, May 17, 2003 09:50 p.m. Going to a club, gonna party and get wasted! Yes, it's been to long. Sheyenne found out that there's this huge new rave club in the middle of town, so tonight we're gonna go scope it out. Should be fun, rave's usually are, plus they might have a few dealers. That bastard Nick "borrowed" some of my ice, basicly all of, now I have to get more -_-* That stuff is not cheap, it can cost up to fucking for one dose. Oh well, the prices we pay for happiness >> I'm making Tor come, he's great with dealers, because he is one...Anyway, it'll be great to do something. Work is hell, I swear my boss is trying to make it that way for me coz I'm "new". You know, I might as well drop out of school for all the good it does me. I'm not learning, and I know enough to get by just fine on my own. Meh, still, it's something to do during the day. Rides here, I'm out. ---------------------------- Saturday, May 17, 2003 08:50 p.m. Journal-san, remember how I told you Ken's brother came over and Ken was surprised? Well, Ken got all sulky over it and he tries to make himself scarce in the house so he won't have to talk to Shen. That's actually pretty difficult, but Ken managed it somehow. Shen knew what Ken was doing, but he's not one to show his emotions, how ken-ish 9_9;, and he was disturbingly cheerful when he left. Seiji and me made Ken feel bad the whole week, you know, sad music, I wish I had a brother, your so lucky to have a brother, how can you be so mean...that stuff. =D I did most of that, I'm good at being dramatic XDD Normally Seiji wouldn't care, but I promise a pie for him if he helped persuade Ken. Seiji can be really persuasive. We wanted Ken to call his brother and apologize. I think Ken is starting to give in, but it'll take a lot more to admit he's wrong. Maybe Toshiro can help when he comes back, I weally weally missed him >.< Besides, Shen didn't break much, he just broke a whole set of plates...but he did give money to replace that...ah soo nice... ---------------------------- Friday, May 16, 2003 010:00 p.m. Wow, it's really all I can say. Europe is an amazing place, such beautiful cities and sites to see. It was an amazing experience, and I'm glad I got to share it with Toshiro, I wouldn't want it any other way ^^ It's sad that it's coming to an end, but there'll always be memories. The alps where breath taking, everything was actually. We saved Rome for last, and I'm glad we did. The Colosseum was a lot bigger than I could have ever imagined it was. The Vatican, the Pantheon, Trajin's Column, San pietro, they were all so amazing! I think I liked Trevi Fountain the most though, I've always liked fountains. This trip was just wonderful. I hope Toshiro had as much fun as I did :3 It was nice to get away and have a good, relaxing time. -D ---------------------------- Friday, May 16, 2003 09:21 p.m. Entry #12 Oh my god, I had such a great time! I can't believe we went to all those places in one week! I loved the old German castles and the Alps...it was so mysterious...I just loved everything we saw. Today we saved the best for last - Rome. I was so speechless when I got there. Rome is old yes, but it was still so intact. The colosseum, the pantheon...however in my opinion, Romans were a bit violent for me. But still I enjoyed it all, and Damien was by my side. He enjoyed it a lot too, though I'm not sure what he liked best, I think he liked all of it ^-^ I can't believe the week is almost over. I will certainly remember this for a long time...traveling is good for the spirit no? ---------------------------- Thursday, May 15, 2003 08:00 p.m. Lights go out and I can't be saved Tides that I tried to swim against You've put me down upon my knees Oh I beg, I beg and plead I'm so nervous right now, or excited, I'm not sure e_e We had the auditions earlier today, and I think they went well. It was fun seeing all the other guy's perform, especially the fight scenes, they made them really melo-dramatic. Lot's of people tried out for Romeo, and it was really funny seeing them drag a friend up with them to be Juliet. But no one actually tried out for Juliets part, which isn't good =X If they don't find one, Mr. Shore is going to have to pick someone at random, and hope they don't put up a fight. So yeah, that was cool, and I kinda got to try out 3 times, Lorn needed a Juliet and Taylor needed a Tybalt, so I helped out. And tonight, if the skies are clear and you can see the moon, the weather guy said it was supposed to be red, and that there was going to be a lunar eclipse! I have to see it, it sounds so amazing :3 -Gabe ---------------------------- Thursday, May 15, 2003 09:47 p.m. Today was a relaxing day...I woke up to a sunny morning, haven't had that in a while, what with all the rain, fucks up the day. I was alone all day, Jomei went out for extra time at work, really misses Toshiro, Seiji went to work and he usually doesn't come until late at night. It was actually pretty good to be alone, I just laid back for a few hours and hauled out my easel to paint. For some reason I felt so emotional when I paint. After being satified, I don't do big works, my time is too important, I set it out to dry and went out and checked on the school. When we don't use it, its a ballet hall. We'll have to fix it up soon, bring out the dummies. Then I went to the gym to work out. I came home all sweaty and just plopped on the couch. I took a nap and woke up, ate dinner, and took a hot shower. My favorite feeling is just coming out of the shower dried up and curling in bed. Well, I wrote in this before I will go to bed... ---------------------------- Wednesday, May 14, 2003 03:52 p.m. Man I have the munchies, need to go buy food 9_9 Got completely baked at lunch today with Tor and Marc, had to skip the rest of the day we we're so out of it XD We had a rock fight with a bunch of the prep wannabe's, it was lame. Then we headed down to the store to get food, and we were laughing the whole way there. We couldn't stop, and Marc was walking and saying stuff, then he just kinda fell over. That killed, I had to sit down I was laughing so hard. We finally got to the store and this chick at the counter was watching us, real suspicious and stuff, so we decided to play with her head. We crept around quietly and whenever we look at a stand, we'd make sure our back's were turned to her. She finally asked us if we were going to buy anything, but none of us had money >>; So we left and kept walking. We ended up down at the warf, so we hung around there for a while. I'm still starving though >< I'm out, I'll get something on the way to work. ---------------------------- Tuesday, May 13, 2003 07:07 p.m. Journal-san, today was an ok day. But during lunch I spilled black bean sauce on my shirt while eating chajang myun...everybody loves chajang myun X3...its kind of hard to get out...I've been walking around with a big black brown splotch on my shirt. People keep asking me if I need help; I think its because the spot looks like dried blood o0; When I got home, I quickly took it off and threw it in the laundry basket. Then Ken's brother Shen jumped out and said, "Hi Jomei! Have you seen my brother?" then he fell over the laundry basket. Nee~ so I gave him a hug and said Ken will be home soon. I told Shen that he could play on the console till he got home, he loves games. Shen is 21, and in college, and really nice. =D I guess we know where all niceness went from Ken. Oh, here comes Ken now...and his startled yell...well, got to calm him down, ciao! ---------------------------- Monday, May 12, 2003 08:00 a.m. I'm on a plane. Or should I say jet? Boeing 747...jet I guess. I'v never been on one before, it's pretty neat. We've been flying for who knows how long, but it shouldn't be much longer. I'd say about 12 pm we'll be there. We're staying for a week, I hope it's enough time to see everything. When I was leaving last night to pick up Toshiro, Rachel and a few of the staff were standing around my car, and singing "Leaving on a Jet Plane" ^^;; I told them that if they were trying to make me feel guilty about leaving them with a bunch of rowdy kids, it wouldn't work. We said our goodbyes and a hearty bon voyage, and now I'm here. It's exciting, but I don't think the fact that this plane is going to Europe has quite hit me yet ^^; The cabin lights are off, Toshiro's sleeping, I probably should to, don't want to get jet lag. -D ---------------------------- Sunday, May 11, 2003 09:31 p.m. Entry #11 I'm taking a big sigh as I write this. Tomorrow I'm going to Europe with Damien for one week. I'm so excited! Europe I've heard is a beautiful place, if you know where to look. Damien's covered alot of things, plane tickets, a place to stay etc etc, and I've wanted to make myself useful so I studied a bit of each common language in Europe, German, French, Italian, Spanish...I just hope it will do o.o; Also, its been a while since I've been on a plane. I suppose all I'll do is sleep alot. I packed all my things and I daresay its a bit small...Jomei's been clinging to my leg the day, he really doesn't want me to go, but Seiji persuaded him, but I can still hear him sniffling. ^^' He'll be ok, he's emotional. Damien will pick me up in late at night about 10:00 PM, and its almost ten, gah I should get ready. We should be there in Europe tomorrow...ja? =D I'll be with my Damien...^^;Auf Weidersien~ ---------------------------- Sunday, May 11, 2003 06:03 p.m. I'll be crying unable to stop Look here comes the very first drop... Coz everytime it rains, I fall to pieces So many memories the rain releases I feel you, I taste you, I cannot forget Everytime it rains...I get wet I had the weirdest dream last night, but I can't really remember it. I think I was falling Oo; It's mothers day today, but no one seems to care. I have a feeling not many people here have mothers...or parents for that matter. I wonder if I ever had a mother, well, I must've, but I wonder what she was like. It's a strange feeling not being able to remember, frustrating too. It feels like it's there, but on an edge, and it could easily slip and be lost. If I could just get it back, maybe I'd feel whole again. Well, it's no good to dwell on things I guess. We finally have the plays all picked out :3 We picked Hamlet for them, should be fun. The girls picked Romeo and Juliet for us, figures doesn't it? And we have to modernize the plays as much as possible though. I'm going to try out for Mercutio. I read the play once, and he's a great character. But I'll also try for Escalus or Paris in case, minor roles, but good characters. I bet everyone'll try out for Romeo, but no one will for Juliet. I can't wait to see the auditions =D -Gabe ---------------------------- Saturday, May 10, 2003 09:51 a.m. I overslept again, not that it really matters, I really don't have anything to do...yet. Tomorrow is Mother's Day. My ma is lives really far from me, so I can't really do much but call her. Now I just have to watch out for my brother....he thinks any mother, father's day etc etc is some kind of 'family' day so he goes across the country to visit his relations....starting with the closest relation. Which would be me. He's out to get me....I can already here him knocking on the door. Nobody in this house knows he exists because I don't talk about him. With good reason. Everywhere he goes, he breaks something. Sometimes he means to, sometimes he doesn't. He's older than me, but he's such a klutz. The most we can do is put him on the couch and tell him not to move lest he breaks the couch. I'm not sure if he grew out of that or something because I haven't seen him for 2 years. I hope he did...>P ---------------------------- Thursday, May 8, 2003 10:04 p.m. I'll kill him, I swear I will! I can't take the coming and going at all hours >< I sleep to much in school as it is, I'm falling behind, and if I fall asleep on the job, then I could lose it. Worse, I could lose my head, lumber yards are dangerous that way >> I have a huge project due in Science, I have to get that done by...tomorrow. Shit. I am so dead if I don't do good on it. Nick's dead, dead, finished. He was supposed to get a project done too, but he didn't even start his. I gotta get going, but I don't have enough time. Maybe I can ask T for some help at lunch to get it completed, she's smart. Oh, and speak of the devil...I'm out, I have some business to attend to. ---------------------------- Thursday, May 8, 2003 07:40 p.m. Journal-san, I just realized something. I remember I looked at the company calendar at work and saw my birthday circled in June...ha, I forgot my own birthday ^_^ Its not that soon, its on the 10th of June. I wonder what everybody else will give me...o0 what if I'm one of those people that are hard to get things and all the give the person is money? What if I don't even know what to do with the money? Well, if I do get money, then I can save it to open my shop, can't I? When I explained that to Yuri she patted my head and said not to worry, she'll give me a muffin. She's my boss. She's a nice lady =D .......^^' it just occurred to me that I wouldn't know what to get myself either...XD Oh well, I can trust them to not get me anything that bad...BAI! ---------------------------- Wednesday, May 7, 2003 08:09 p.m. And the count down begins :3 Not much longer till it'll be off to Europe on a jet plane. Now that school back in session, some of the kids who were bored with the same old thing day in, day out, decided to put on a production. The girls get to pick a play/performance for boys, and the boys'll pick one for the girls. I can't wait to see what get's picked, I'm sure they're going to try and make it as hard on each other as possible ^^; After such a long break all the kid's seem to have transformed into bean bags, it takes a lot to get them moving. I'm sure the play's will do some good, plus it includes all ages so it'll be a chance for people to get to know one another better. That's always a problem with the boy's, not so much the girls. They stopped the hazing's though, those were pretty awful I hear. It seems the closer I get to finishing one thing,a million other smaller thing's pop up, back to work. D- ---------------------------- Wednesday, May 7, 2003 05:01 p.m. Entry #10 We're going to Europe on may 12! I'm so happy to go, I've always wanted to go there. Maybe I'll have a chance to visit my birthplace in Germany...^^; my nationality isn't German, my parents were just touring around. My mother was a Japanese and my father was Belgian. Yet I lived in China most of my life. Odd isn't it? So what is my nationality? o0...ha, maybe japanese belgian? Ah its easy for everyone else, Jomei is Japanese, Ken is Philippino and Seiji is American....hmm, an american guy with an oriental name...I know he has an english name...ah, it was...I'm going to ask, ok he said his name was Daniel. Ken laughed out loud when he heard Seiji's name; then Seiji said at least he's not named after some steriod high doll. =P They bicker all the time... ---------------------------- Monday, May 5, 2003 08:36 p.m. And I don't want the world to see me Cuz I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am I really wish the weather would get nicer, it keeps raining. I'm heading back to the school tomorrow morning, which is kind of ideal since I'll be able to make all my classes. It was really nice staying here, fun times, and Jomei's a great host. Went out around town with Ken yesterday, that was nice, looking in all the stores and stuff. I wonder if we're going to start anything new this term, same old thing everyday get's really boring, really fast. I kinda wish they'd lay of the PE and give us more class time. But now that the weather's going to be nicer, it'll probably get worse. Joined up for soccer, got on the team I've been on for the last few years. It's nice seeing familiar faces, but I didn't see Mike at practice. Maybe he got switched to a new team this year, or maybe he didn't join...Nah, he lives for the game, he wouldn't just quit, I'm sure of that. Guess I'll just have to wait and see if we play him in any games ^^ -Gabe ---------------------------- Monday, May 5, 2003 08:31 p.m. Its too quiet here...I better watch out. So, yeah, I went out with Gabe yesterday. We went around town, its a nice place if you ignore the other things. It was nice hanging out with Gabe for once, it reminds me of the good old times. The martial art school I teach at is starting to reopen again. Its going to get really busy for me, which is good, because I need a little excitement right now. I need to punch something. Not that I can, I teach kids, but maybe I can have a round with one of my co-workers...heh, I always win. Yeah, its going to be nice to see the guys again, Tori and them. Ha, Tori, the lucky bastard, he gets to teach the ladies with self-defense, I'd like to see him do it. Seiji asked me how I can handle so many kids at once, he can barely hang on to 23 high schoolers. That's about it... ---------------------------- Sunday, May 4, 2003 06:14 p.m. Gar, my lip hurts, I think the rings infected >.O Stupid thing, "It'll look cool" Tor says, right. I feel so out of it, which is not good. I keep messing up at work, I'm lucky I haven't been fired yet. And I'm not getting any sleep either. I've basicly just moved into my own place, real nice one to, and as soon as he found out, Nick decides it'll be his crash pad -_-* I was getting sick of it, so I told him he'd better start paying half the rent since he practically lives here. And guess what. The next day I get home from work, and all his shit is piled up in the living room. Bastard. At least he's living up to his end of the deal and not sponging, though I have no idea how he's getting money. Anyway, I thought it was bad when he came in during the middle of the night just to sleep, but now he does that and he sometimes brings people over >< There will have to be some ground rules put down before I lose it completely. The good side to all this is that now I can pay the rent and live, I don't bring in enough myself to do that...Eh, later~ ---------------------------- Sunday, May 4, 2003 07:04 p.m. Jourrrral-saaaan~! Can you believe its may already? We've just finished spring cleaning, and Gabe has been staying over. 2 more days till he goes back to school, or home or where ever he lives. ^^ Its so nice to have company, I'm going to miss having him around. Even if it was only a week. Today I prepared a cake for him to take home, its the kind that take forever to make...like a day and a half. Gabe and Ken went out for some time together because lately its been like a whole group where ever we go. Oh, and Toshiro is going to Europe in 8 days. =X I'm going to miss him too...wah...me all alone with 2 dirty men....boohoo, oh well, I hope it goes well for Toshiro ^^ i hope he has fun! ---------------------------- Saturday, May 3, 2003 07:36 p.m. Wow, it's May. Time flies when you're doing repairs. The house looks much better too, and nothings leaking or rusting anymore :3 It was great having Toshiro help, things seemed to go by quicker. And just in time to, we leave on May 12th for Europe. Ah, I'm really excited! It's going to be so much fun =D I feel like I should be doing stuff to get ready, but I don't know what ^^; There's six days till we leave, and the flight all booked, so it's just packing that's left. And the flight...It's going to be something like 20 hours @_e It'll still be nice though, and the flight's only a small part. I think I'll go start packing, maybe that way I won't forget anything ^^; D- ---------------------------- Saturday, May 3, 2003 10:26 p.m. Entry #9 Oh my...I'm out of breath. Today we had to run the mile, and it was horrible. I really need practice. And right after school I stopped by at Damien's house just to see him. When he answered the door, he looked like some kind of handyman trying to fix something, which he was. He told me that he was planning to kind of fix his house up here and there during his spring break. I volunteered to help, which was rash of me, but I'm still happy to do it. @@ I just hope I won't end up destroying his house or anything. Well, whether he says I can or not, I'm still going to visit once in a while ^^;. When I went home, I had to prevent Seiji from strangling Ken who was trying to throw Jomei out the window. vv; I think my life is a sitcom somehow.. ----------------------------
