weird things, altogether

This week I received three things. First, a Christmas present overdue to John, which is DNA^2 #5. He loves it. Second, my Megatokyo #1 book. Yes, I can get pretty much the same thing online for free, but what do you care? It's my money, and I like Megatokyo. Third, and the crowning glory, Kingdom Hearts. I managed to weasle it out of my mom yesterday since I'd seen some nifty KH figures in the Suncoast. When we got home, she finally pulled it out and let me have it. Yeeeeeee! I loves it. But I still need to finish some of my other games ^^;

Other than that, not much. Been doing school, played a game of Mage online with the gang... Oh, I've been invited to a birthday party for Monday o_o; I don't know the girl very well, but she invited me anyway, and she's supposed to call me this weekend, or I'm supposed to call her, and in any case, figure things out. Or something. Given that I don't know her so well (and that John probably wouldn't be available to accompany to the party), I don't particularly want to go... Plus Lauryl was in charge of inviting people, and she didn't invite me. Probably because she knows that our (Maryanna's and mine) friendship is nonexistent so far, due to that "not knowing each other too well" thing. All goes back to that fact. But anyway.

I've been on a yogurt kick lately. Yum. Yogurt.

Oh, and Steve Burton's voice is excellent as Cloud's. I approve. All I have to do now is wait to hear Sephiroth's. *whimpers at the thought of Lance Bass voicing FFVII's villain*

I just wish they'd had characters from the Final Fantasy games that weren't FFVII, FFVIII, and FFX. I mean, why skip IX? And what about I-VI?! But I guess since this is really more of a Disney game than a Squaresoft game... And that EVERYONE knows about the PSX and PS2 games... *bitter*

But it's still a good game.

ghost world: a good movie.

So good I don't know what the hell I feel right now after watching it. But it was good just the same.

I did a little site maintenence here a while ago, and it depresses me. I had to take out sites that were once really good, but now... Though I suppose nearly all of the links here are now lackluster. Even this journal to an extent. Oh well. I'll keep pluggin' along...

Fuck it. I don't know what else to say at the moment. Except that I'm tired.

i think i dreamt of a blog layout update.

It was... bluish. That's all I (think I) remember.

The new year's come, and I partied as best I could: in true geek fashion, I gathered with my friends and we all tried to kill each other in a rousing game of Frag. Ahh, my eyes get a little misty when I think of those good times. Christmas was all right too. I got a PS2, and some nice games to go with it (Final Fantasy X, Dark Cloud, Oni, and Gauntlet: Dark Legacy). I personally favor FFX out of the bunch, as I am a die-hard Squaresoft groupie, and I must say, that particular game does not disappoint. However, most of the fanfiction written for it is far beyond the point of disappointing. It's reached the realms of shoot-on-sight. I have never seen a fandom so plagued with dumbass teeny-bopper fangirls and fanboys. It's utterly disgusting.

But now I'm keeping busy with school, which isn't too bad. I get to see John now ^_^ He's in my Science Fiction class along with Dan and Andrew, but the teacher... ugh. Because of her severe tendency to treat us all like five-year-olds, Dan's going to drop the class. I don't blame him, really. I get to see all my friends, and it's great. Every other teacher is fine, but for sci-fi...

But I'll get through it. I need a good GPA this time around, and I'm confident that I'll get it. I won't let it slip by me.

i really need to rant.

But... I will decline. Suffice to say I am still acutely unhappy and bored after having cried some more earlier. I'm sorry John. And angry, and confused, but most of it is confusion directed in a wholly wrong way. I try to figure out certain things, and as smart as I am, still can't comprehend those whys.
