Heehee! Went to Valley Fair, and spent two hours in Forever 21. ^_~ Ni~ice store. Only ended up buying one shirt, but heck, I LIKE it. And I got an army fatigue bandana for my hair, too. ^_~ Ostensibly, it's for an upcoming competition Robotics Team is doing; our theme is Corporate Takeover. The entry? A "tank." Spirit items? Army camouflage stuff. ^_^ But the real reason I got the bandana was because I liked it. And it was $2.50 at Claire's. I thought up the Robotics Team connection afterward. ^_~
Finished my economics ap reading... the reading about how safety belts cause more deaths. ^^;; It's actually very logical. Economics is very interesting... though a little too fuzzy for me to really consider it as something I'd want to do all my life; I don't particularly like fuzzy subjects. (Psychology, history, economics, sociology... all those things where you can theorize your a$$ off and still not have any possible way to prove that you're right... at least in science and math there's times when you KNOW you're right. I like that feeling. When you've finished a math problem and you KNOW you've done it right, there's no better feeling in the world. ...to me.) hey, kix, if you're reading, did you get to that thing? It's really, really interesting. Kinda like that Greed video; thought-provoking, sometimes funny, and in general a very new way to look at things. Hey, I ~like~ things that can open up my mind... Helps me feel like I'm not becoming inflexible in my old age. ^^;; I already know I'm becoming senile... Don't need to know I'm becoming an old fuddy-duddy "and THOSE were the days" person too...
Speaking of opening up my mind, I have physics notes to take. >.< Better hop to it. Laters!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
np: no clue. ^^;; it's one of those internet radio stations, you know, those streaming mp3 things... unfortunately, it doesn't tell you what song is playing... oh well.
yooo~oooooo!!! I actually woke up before 8AM on a Saturday. O.o Must be having to wake up early for school. I'm in the habit of waking up early now. >.< Scary. Had my fun Saturday morning cartoon viewing time; watched the premier of Digimon Tamers. I like. ^_~ like the voices, the animation, the characters... The dialogue is still interesting and sophisticated (for a kids' cartoon show...) and though I miss the pretty watercolor wash backgrounds, this new bolder background thing is still nice. More...real. Dig? Yeah...
Ooo~oh, got a new cell phone!! ^_^ This phone is hella cool. It's tiny, it's light, I can hook it on my pants, it has voice mail and text mail and everything else you might want, it has a vibrating ring function so that the phone won't ring and class and get confiscated by my teachers (me: waiting for the inevitable ecchi comments about a vibrating phone... got a bunch of that from my friends at school when i told them i was getting a new cell... >.< those girls have dirty minds....), and anyway, it also has this cool earphone/microphone thing. The microphone must be really sensitive; it's like, the size of my thumbnail and when I call people it's like I'm talking to them on a normal phone. Coolcool, huh? This way it'll be a lot safer to get calls while I'm driving; just stick the headphone in my ear, flip open the phone, and start talking. Ah, technology is wonderful, no? ^_^
I have a heckuva lot of stuff to do this labor day weekend. >.< It really sucks. I just wanna... vegetate. O.o I mean, I'm going to be thinking ENOUGH now that school has started. ....oh well. Maybe I should just get my homework finished. Then I can draw or something. ^^;; Work on my website. Yes, that would be good. Build up my website... Homework first.
Oh crap, I have to go rinse out my hair or else the conditioner stuff will dry out...
Voices in head: What was that about a vibrating phone? Hmm?
Me:........hentai........
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
np: 2-top (daisuke and v-mon from digimon 02 ^_^ it's CUTE! ultra perky. ^_~)
lalalaa~aaa... interesting first week of school. I now have all my text books; my physics honors book, my microeconomics ap book, my calculus bc book, and my biology ap book. >.< Luckily, I get to leave my econ, bio, and physics book at home all the time, and I own a copy of the calculus book, so I keep the one I got from the school in my locker and the other one at home. ^_^ Which basically means the only stuff I have to haul around are my notebooks, my binders, and my lunch. Which is still a lot, but it's not nearly as bad as other years. Besides, I can always toss everything into my car. ^_~ coolcool!! I love being a senior...
Oh. Some people were trying to convince me to go to the school dance tonight. o.O I didn't laugh at them, but it came close. They basically asked me why I wouldn't go, and my response was, basically, I'm antisocial. I don't like dances. Their response? They tried to guilt trip me into it. >.< It's not like these were people I knew all that well; I knew one of them from elementary school, but we were never very close. We moved in different social circles. (my school is very clique-y.) The other person, I met on Monday when school started. And they were trying to convince me that they'd be devastated if I didn't go to the dance tonight. O.o I'm sorry, I have problems with people like that. It's obvious that they're insincere; what are they trying to pull? I guess socially, they think that's whay they're supposed to do... But it bugs me. >.< I expect behavior like that from my friends, not random people. My (very un-antisocial) friends are the ones who drag me to dances and movies and dinners and stuff; concern for my social life is sweet from them. Not from random people. It's almost mockery from them. >.< Oh well. I guess they're trying... But if I don't want to go to a frickin' dance, I don't want to go. Nothing's going to convince me otherwise. >.< oh well...
I have a crapload of homework I need to do over labor day weekend. o.O Eww. I can probably finish it all pretty quickly, but...still. Labor day weekend? >.< Oh well... Oh, I found out my fa~avorite clothing store (found the store in Maui while I was there over the summer and haven't stopped pining for it since) has opened at a mall nearby! ^O^ It has the cutest clothes, good quality stuff too, and it's relatively cheap. ^_^ I like. I'm going to have to go to Valley Fair (the mall) soon... Happyhappy! Haven't been to Valley Fair in FOREVER!
Voices in head: You sound like a ditzy valley girl. MALLS?
Me: Yeah. So? Just because I'm an antisocial nerd with a penchant for messing around with my computers and learning to play chess in my spare time doesn't mean I can't like going shopping every once in a while.
Voices: ........not saying anything........
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
np: nothing; parents in the room
Wow. I'm not nearly as tired today as I was yesterday... Guess I'm just becoming accustomed to school again. Which could be a good thing or a bad thing. O.o Last year, "accustomed" to school meant daily headaches, many doses of pain killers, 6 hours of sleep at the most every weekday night, and a persistent muscle twitch in my temple. o.<;; That's what school does to me... (Are daily painkillers healthy? something tells me "no"...)
Heehee, I bought three volumes of Hikaru no Go today! ^_^ ^_^ First 3 volumes in chinese. Very co~ool!! I also rented two volumes of Hanazakari no kimitachi e. ^_^ ^_^ I lu~uv the art!! So cute! Have to find translations... Hmm... besides that, had a lot of calculus homework again (GAH >.<) and I still need to finish my bio ap reading, my english ap notes, and my english ap essay. >.< f#*$ that, I wanna read my manga~aa!! ...but i really better do my homework. >.< gah... otherwise, happy day. ^_^ Managed to avoid person i wanted to avoid and associate with ppl i wanted to associate with... and i managed not to fall asleep in any of my classes. ^_^ (though i came close in bio. i'm weird; i'm the most sleepy at the very end of the day...)
Voices in head: ...you were saying you needed to do you homework?
Me: Yeah.
Voices: ....so...are you doing it?
Me: ...sometime...
Voices: How about NOW?
Me: (whines) but i don't wanna, mommy!
Voices: ...You're disgusting.
