I've been giggling nonstop over all the new Square developments that have come up~ TWO Kingdom Hearts titles, and this fabled FF7 sequel we've all been hearing about? XD This must be making Jen happy~~ More Sephy for Jen! XD Can't wait for Tokyo Game Show and more media~~ (Is happy! But would be even more happy if I actually had a PS2 in college... ;_; Maybe I'll ask for one for Christmas. X3)

mooooo....I need to go grocery shopping. AND I need a new layout.

Sunday, September 28, 2003

Just finished reading the Please Save My Earth manga. Am flailing. @_@ Durrhhh!! I NEED MORE!!! ;_; I hate reading old manga. There's no one around to fangirl with. *fangirls* Gah, THE GUYS in this manga! I was even in love with them at the beginning of the series when the art was...not so pretty. XD LOOOTS of love to Mikuro and Issei~ Issei's just wonderful, and Mikuro... *fans self* Haru gets love and bunnies too because he needs them. A lot. And I love Shion even when he's being an evil bastard~ XD Love them all! *fangirlsfangirlsfangirls* I listened to Young Soul Rebel again, obviously, and my roommate was freaked out when I started giggling with my headphones on. Whee~~!!! But though I love the Issei and Jinpachi luv (homo ja nai!! XD) I have to confess my favorite couple in the series is Mikuro x Haru. @_@ Fish. ...yeah. That's just the way it works. ^^;

But seriously, PSME is a wonderful manga; it puts me in the same mood as Fruits Basket. (I love Furuba.) And they're both about rebirth and redemption, in their own ways... Guess I just like the theme. Or they're both just really well written~ I wish I could come up with something to say that would really convey the scale of this series, but I'm pooped from exam week and my brain is dead. Soooo all you get is my fangirlish rambling. Yay? (quickly have to mention how much I loved the volumes having to do with Shion's past. SOO well done. You really get a feel for Shion's character, motivations...how fucked up he is...^^; Yeah. But DUDE, give him a kitty and he's sooo cute! <3<3<3)

And YES!! Exam week is OVER and I am SLEEPING again!! XD ....though I admit to being at somewhat of a loss now that I have nothing to study for. I tried drawing, but it didn't really work. I think I need to sleep. Sleep is good.

Also? DON'T WATCH ALIEN NINE IF YOU WANT TO RETAIN YOUR SANITY. There. My public service announcement for the week. And I am very serious. Alien Nine is one of those series that I came out of feeling vaguely nauseous. Completely, sickeningly insane. And I'm not talking about Jungle wa Itsumo Hale Nochi Guu insane; I'm talking depressing suicidal Now and Then, Here and There insane. (Okay, bad example... Now and Then Here and There in itself is not insane. But I bet if I tried to marathon all 13 episodes I'd be suicidal afterwards...) To sum it all up, Alien Nine is fucked up and you could really do something better with your time, so...do it. @_@

I need a new layout. Any ideas? I am drawing a total blank right now. >_< ...maybe I'll do a PSME layout! XD wheee!!

so. tired. ;_; the most sleep I've gotten since last Thursday night was seven hours the day before yesterday, and I was INDESCRIBABLY happy to get that seven hours. ;_; so. tired. need. sleep. now. one more test. just need to survive one more test....

But I got an A on my organic chem exam! XD sweeeet!!! That almost kinda makes up for my exhaustion right now. almost.

I can't believe I'm still awaakee~~ (is studying cell bio. Am maybe a fourth done. Test is Thursday. I ish shkrood.)

Why hello, Mr. Polymerase, how are you today?

And LOOK!!! JACK SPARROW cosplay!! GIVE JAPANESE COSPLAYERS TEH LOVE!!! XD

Tuesday, September 23, 2003

Well! My organic chem test was rather...anti-climactic. I didn't even NEED to know what an aldehyde was. XD Got a B at the worst. Without a curve. Most of the stuff on there wasn't ochem anyway, just a review of general chemistry, which I know MORE than enough about. (It seems as if I'm going to be tutoring chemistry for the rest of my life. It's like my only life skill that makes any money. ;_; At least it makes a lot of money. $17 an hour, baby!! XD) Though I REALLY did not enjoy taking that sucker at 7:30AM. >_< I guess it's okay, because the entire class is uniformly stupid at 7:30 in the morning, so it won't screw the curve... Unless there's MORNING people in the class. Scary, dude...

Let's hope my bio psych exam is just as anticlimatic. Hey, it IS multiple choice... I do well on multiple choice tests. ^^; (I think my performance on the SAT I's and II's is due more to that than to my actual intelligence. =P)

WHEEE!!!! <---is hyper off caffeine pills. I know they're bad for you, but... ^^; heeheeeheee, 200mg of caffeine! XD LET'S STUDY SOME BIO PSYCH~!!!!! heehee, i'm jittery. @_@ At least I don't have to write any essays. Like that time I drank two cups of coffee before my Lit final and while I was writing the in-class essay my hand was shaking? THAT was fun. XD Got an A, too. Hee~!! Guess the essay was good enough to offset the semi-illegibility of the thing. XD ANYWAYS!! Bio psych~!

Dude, look at what exams are doing it me. @_@ I'll be sooo glad when this week is over...

Well, that was smart. I try to apply the toothache medication to my gums and I end up numbing my tongue. Ooh, and my bottom lip, too. Good job, genius!

I have my organic chem and biological psychology exam tomorrow and I haven't memorized the nerves or the parts of the brain yet and I can't for the life of me remember what an aldehyde is right now. Somebody help me. ;_;

I haven't even STARTED studying for my cell bio exam Thursday... I am SO dead.

Get Backers fanart!! =D It's probably (definitely) not what you had in mind, Terra, but...well...it's a start?

And I might seriously consider redoing it without the comments and the Ginji even if no one asks me to. Because Ban's making me drool on my keyboard. ^^; If I actually concentrated on making a pretty background for it, it could be a pretty decent piece of art...

Anyways!! Back to bio psych and organic chem. >_>

Friday, September 19, 2003

Okay. At the risk of sounding whiny and bitchy, this year's list of shit so far:

1.) Being sick for the first two weeks I was here
2.) My printer not functioningfor the first week I was here
3.) Not having a comforter for the first two weeks I was here (might be why I was sick)
4.) BUG BITES
5.) BUG BITE ALLERGIES
6.) The humidity
7.) The heat
8.) No air conditioning
9.) The digusting bathroom
10.) FUCKING HURRICANE ISABEL
11.) GOING TO CLASS IN FUCKING HURRICANE ISABEL BECAUSE MY ADMINISTRATION IS A BUNCH OF DUMBASSES
12.) My laptop breaking down
13.) My new laptop taking a fucking week to get to me (thanks to the aforementioned FUCKING HURRICANE)
14.) When I DO get my new laptop, I go through hell and high water trying to (a) install an OS, (b) get it to connect to the internet, (c) trying to fix it when it screwed up after I though I was home free, and (d) recovering my old files from my previous hard drive, which I eventually did, amazingly.
15.) Meanwhile, without a computer to entertain me, I was reduced to watching Dragonball Z and Yugioh every afternoon this week. Someone shoot me. ;_; (though Trunks and Marik are totally hot! =D~)
15.) I have three exams next week and thanks to all of the above and other factors, I am so behind I might as well give up now, except that I'm a stubborn bitch.
16.) I am on my period.

And a butterfly landed on my head today. It's the best thing that's happened to me all week. Sad thought, that...

Hopefully, this will be the last of my bitching sessions. Though next week IS exam week, so we'll see about that...

And I have a weeks worth of internet stuff to catch up on. Boo. I hate computers.

Um, I have been computer-less since last Friday and I am currently on a computer in a campus computer lab, so that is why I have not been online/answering e-mail/been on AIM. And I will send out my SN to everyone (and my mailing address and my new phone #, for that matter) ASAP. I will also try to get ahold of a new computer ASAP. >_> (My computer totally died. It doesn't recognize my operating system and when it DOES it either does a physical dump or gives me a stop error, it does NOT recognize my floppy drive so I can't reinstall the OS, and there is NO virus on the thing... My guess is it finally overheated and I fried something. The fan has been on its last legs... Heck, the entire computer was on its last legs. It's, what, six years old? Except for the hard drive, which is like a year old, but everything else...)

Though my parents bought me a new laptop! =D Yayy~ Not top of the line, but DEFINITELY better than my clunker. ^^;

But...I WANT MY COMPUTER BACK!! ;_; I was working on a CG too, when my computer died... I was finally getting around to the promise I made Terra for Get Backers fanart. ;_; I knew my productivity was too good to be true. HOPEFULLY I'll be able to recover my hard drive and my files once I get my new laptop... If not, I'm going to BAWL. ;_;

...anyways. lots of work to do. better get back to it. next week is exam week. And there's a fucking hurricane that's supposed to hit North Carolina Thursday. Oh joy, oh joy. Witness my excitement. ...life fucking sucks.

"Would anyone like to volunteer to be uke?" -- my Aikido teacher There were a number of volunteers. I was not one of them because I was too busy trying not to crack up.

Everyone's reversible in Aikido! =D

I am hoping this weekend will be the first weekend since I arrived at school that I WON'T be sick. I have not been very healthy since I got here. Yucky~ Hopefully I'll also get caught up on work this weekend. o_O I am so behind on reading it's not even funny. I'm behind in like...EVERYTHING! Actually, I never did say what I'm taking this semester. Here's a list:

Organic chemistry
Biological psychology
Cell biology I
Advanced Chinese
Drawing
Aikido

I am in class 20.5 hours a week. It's as bad as when I was an engineer. >_< This is going to be a FUN semester...

JEN GAVE ME A GIANT SEPHIROTH POSTER!! XDXDXD I HAVE A GIANT SEPHIROTH ON MY WALL!! SEXYSEXY JEN-RENDITION KINGDOM HEARTS WINGED SEPHIROTH!! <3<3<3 I LOVE YOU JEENNNN!!!!

I am teh fangirl. Hear me 'roar'.

Speaking of art, I'm so happy random strangers are actually commenting on my work at my Deviant Art gallery, and it really makes me want to draw. ;_; Duuddeee... I really need to start making use of my tablet... And thank you, Bubble, for the compliment on my layout~ It means a lot to me! =D

Thank you guys, for the lab partner (and general) commiseration~ Things are going much better for me now that I'm not constantly sick. =P Being sick makes me grumpy. A grumpy Lisa is annoying to be around. ^^; And I'm sorry about your annoying lab partners, Imouto ;_; If you really want to talk, you can IM me or call me, okay? Ask Mom for my dorm phone number. =)

And I have a chinese test to study for, so I better start now. XD

My lab partner left without helping me clean up the lab equipment. Asshole. My hall's bathroom smells like a port-o-potty because some fuckwad doesn't know what and what not to flush down a toilet. I get to dissect sheep brains at 8AM tomorrow when nightowl me is usually quite happily asleep. Then I get to get thrown around in Aikido. I have bruises to prove it. (and I think I shrunk my gi when I was doing my laundry today. >_< DOH!) And oh! Bugs still love me. (Though I love all of you for being so sympathetic. ;_; It really means a lot.)

Yup, my life is peachy-keen! =D

At least I'm no longer sick. And my laundry is clean. Clean, warm socks are GODLY.

...now...I need to sleep. >_<

Warning: copious (uncreative) swearing in the following entry. I'm sorry. No offense to anyone meant. ^^; (except to bugs)

I hate North Carolina. North Carolina can fucking BITE me.

...wait a minute. No, NOOO!!! No bite! Bite bad! Arghh, noooo!!!! *cries*

...I hate bugs. I hate bug bites. I hate itchy bug bites that distract me from reading my organic chem chapter I was supposed to finish a fucking week ago. I fucking hate allergic reactions to bug bites. I hate allergy medication that makes me fucking drowsy and makes reading textbooks THAT MUCH HARDER. To sum it all up, I HATE THE SHITPILE CALLED NORTH CAROLINA AND I WANT TO GO HOME WHERE THE BUGS DON'T AUTOMATICALLY GRAVITATE TOWARD MY LEGS.

....there. I think I feel a little better now. ^^;

Sunday, August 31, 2003

...since I last blogged, several things have happened.

1.) I developed an allergic reaction to one of my bug bites. No, it was not pretty.

2.) I dropped my Lit class because the teacher was as boring as...well, as my English teacher last semester. Except this one just wouldn't. Shut. Up. And the people in the class were dead silent. Um, that doesn't work for a seminar. So, no.

3.) I was bitten by two more bugs.

4.) Went to anime club. There were girls there! =D Yayyy. Hopefully they'll stay. I need fellow fangirls to bond with. ;_; Um, I left when they started showing Mahoromatic. I had more than enough of ecchi maid shows last year, after some *#&$ing fanboy thought it would be fun if they showed Hanauyuko Maids. Um, no?

5.) Am currently sick. Don't know what with. Have been sick since Friday. Not cool. Have been sleeping most of the weekend. Have also been very drugged up. Cold medicine = good.

6.) Art teacher is insane and likes conceptual and modern art. Instant NODEARGODSAVEME. But at least he can teach.

7.) Watched all of Weiss Kreuz Gluhen. New character designs = NO. Ending = NO. (well, I kinda liked Ken's, actually...) Did I like it (for the most part)? Yes. But I would've liked it better if several things had changed...for instance, if Brad didn't have that godawful monocle... Actually, more of Schwartz, period, would have been nice. But the little of the Crashers that we did get was cool. =D

....I never did see all of the original WK TV series... ;_;

Anyways. Still feel sick. Didn't get any of the work done I meant to get done. But there was a thunderstorm today!! =D That cooled the place down. This is good. We only have one fan going in the room now. =P

Thank you, Meimi~ I liked the wall too... It took SOO much less time than the rest of it. >_< Hope college life starts going better for you~ Believe me, I know some of what you're going through. I knew absolutely no one when I first got to college, and it was definitely hard at first. @_@ But it gets better~ I promise! =D Kenji, you reminded me... I need to give everyone my new SN. ^^; Lenka~~ Heehee, all that really happens in episode 17 is a cooking show that Skuld crashes. The fun part is the fact that Yamino, Mayura, and Narugami are competing against Freyr, Heimdall, and Gullinbrusti. XD Yes, Gullinbrusti. Cooking. Freya puts in an appearance in the Cosplay Hot Springs (or something) show. Which Mayura crashes. Literally. Dude I love this show. XD

MaLoki 18 is even better. Loki acting like Heimdall! Loki acting like Freyr! Or even better, Loki acting like Mayura~ XD SOO CUTE!!

Ahem. Anyways. Imouto, thank you~ And go ahead and send your story to me anytime you're done! =D

Now...I need to get to work. I have a Chinese test tomorrow which I have NOT studied for yet... >_< Eww...

Helloooo North Carolina. >_> Hot, humid, bug infested North Carolina. I think I've lost five pounds since I got here, through sweat and my jetlag loss of appetite. And pure laziness. I FINALLY got around to getting a few groceries today. ^^; And have I mentioned it's HOT? I have a good four fans going in my room right now. >_< And I was bitten by no less than three bugs last night, and have been slathering hydrocortisone on the bites all day. BUT!! I saw baby bunnies outside my roommate's house!! They were sooo cute. *_* I also saw lightning bugs for the first time ever. They look REALLY cool. And...I saw The Shawshank Redemption. Really really good movie. I want to see it again sometime on a bigger tv. ^^;

Recently viewed anime:

Scrapped Princess 18: ......uh, SHIT. Please tell me that episode didn't just happen. ...um, anyways, Fulle is hot. And after seeing him in combat, he's as cool as Shannon in that respect. Even though... >_< Never mind. Leopold's a cutie and is getting less and less goofy. He left the Suppi head behind. ;_; Pacifica's annoying. Like, REALLY annoying. Her brattiness with occasional angst is starting to get on my nerves. It's gotten much worse since she lost her memories. And poor Raquel~ Dude, even if Pacifica DOESN'T remember Raquel at all... She should at least be able to see the pain she's causing her sister. >_< And poor Shannon, being followed around by a Peacemaker. And softening towards her. Heck, I am, too. o_O Ahh, Shannon-nii. I still love Shannon to death. ^^

Matantei Loki Ragnarok 17 - *breaks into helpless laughter* poooor Heimdall. XD No one takes him seriously at all, do they? This was just a totally spazz-tastic episode, as usual, and I lurve it. Bring it on! XD

Oh! Thank you everybody for your nice comments on the Garnet picture... Saara, I'll send you my new address as soon as I get it~~ And Mirae, I promise to update more. And be on AIM more. =D I need to get around to giving everyone my new SN. >_<

And good luck with college Meimi!! It'll take a little while to get used to... But you'll pull through. The independence definitely takes some adjusting to, though. ^^;

Organic chemistry tomorrow morning. @_@ BUT! I have a secret weapon. CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH FOR BREAKFAST!!!XDXDXD

I LOVE FREYR.

And Freya is growing on me. o_O

I love MaLoki sooo much. Heimdall and Freyr are so crazy funny together. (I love it when they started flinging mud at each other. XD) Likewise with Freyr and Freya. Sibling interaction at its best~ (the washpans Freya dropped on Freyr's head definitely take the cake. ...mmmm...cake...) Yamino and Fenrir are so... Wow. More sibling interaction~ Not as funny, but they're both so kyute I just have to love them! Thor is a very, um, pretty bride. o_O Mmkay. Mayura is the cutest ditz I've ever actually liked. She's just so...ditzy. The only character who persists in completely annoying me is Reiya. I think it's the "deesu". >_< That voice, man...

Anyways! Love show. But there's no one I can cosplay. I am sad. ...though I DO have the wig for Freya. o_O ....um, no. No.

And Loki is adorable as a child and hot as an adult. And snuggly as a hamster. XD Hamster!!! <3

I need MaLoki manga. >_< I also need Get Backers manga. Ahhh, my dear wallet leeches... What WOULD I do without you?

With BABIES!!!111<3<3 ^_^ I like baby aminals. Oh, and I also like beds and showers. And food that I do not roast over an open fire on sticks. And screens on my windows to deter bugs. >_<

I was in a PMSy mood because I'm, well, PMSing, but then I watched Gundam Seed 42 and I'm all better~ Gundam Seed 42 spoilers:

I love this series. I love Lux and how she can be sweet and feminine AND organize giant rebellions AND keep from mourning for her dead father until she and her followers are out of danger. ;_; I love Asuran and how he can stand up to his father. I love Diakka just because he's Diakka. I love Okiayu Ryoutarou and his character, and though I have no clue why his character is still alive despite having been supposedly blasted to bits 20 episodes ago, I'm nevertheless happy he's alive because he was cool and obsessed with coffee. AND!! He's siding with Lux! *_* If his girlfriend's alive too I'd be even happier, but I'm not asking for too much more. At least Kira has one less person to angst about having killed. =D Not like he does too much of that any more. Good boy! Even Frey look like she might, potentially, do something useful. o_O C'mon, bitch. I dare you.

I love this show. ^0^

And just to finalize things: CG club, SATURDAY, 1PM, Jen's.

You're Yamino Ryusuke, Loki's loyal son. You care about people who are important to you, and will always try to help them. You are cheerful at time, and you have a stable personality which allows you to be wise with decisions

Which Matantei Loki character are you most alike?

That...makes perfect sense. Whheeee!! Yamino is cute, even if he is a giant snake turned butler! XD

Caught up on shows today...

Gad Guard 8-11: Takumi is sooo cute (and I lurve his seiyuu~) And Katana + kittens will be the death of me, I swear. And have I ever mentioned how demented I find that dog that's in the ending credits? Even more demented than that dog in Just Married. Not to say they aren't cute dogs...okay, they're not cute. They're scary. In a somewhat endearing sorta way. Kinda like baby snakes. Except fuzzier.

Scrapped Princess 13-15: whoooaaaa. It's amazing the plot twists this series can dish out at you in such a short period of time. o_O Err, Fulle (that his name?) is teh hot and though he'll never ever displace Shannon...I think... Well, if he loses the Aya-esque (WK) earings he just might. Oomph. Too many hot guys in this show. I'd love it even without the hot guys...but WOW. Heehee, Bones shows always have good looking guys for me to gape at. ...anyways, SERIOUSLY. I think I'll save up a block of Scrapped Princess to watch next, because it seems to be most enjoyable when I watch it continuously. Randomly, Eirote and Seness give me Kaede and Sai vibes. o_O And Pacifica's brother is a cutie and I wub him. And I want to be like Raquel-nee.

DNAngel 14: >_<; WHY did I do this to myself? WHY? ...ok, so I was like, let's watch a random episode of it and see if it has gotten any better! ...omg. Okay, they threw in a new character. An AMERICAN, PSYCHOTIC, HYPERACTIVE FASHION VICTIM. Who has her claws in Daisuke. And throws a lot of badly pronounced English into her sentences. ...do Japanese people really see Americans this way? ;_; Her clothing is absolutely HORRIFYING (I should take screenshots of it; it has to been seen to be believed) and she's...she's...OMG. At least Satoshi performed CPR on Daisuke this episode. (And then sorta-smirked at him afterward! XD) That's the only reason I'm not a gibbering wreck. >_<

Azumanga Daioh: my therapy. 'Nuf said. ...that and I've decided I am some warped combination of Sakaki and Yomi. Without the boobs. =P

Tomorrow I think I'll catch up on Loki. And watch more AzuDai~

No, I'm serious. I was stirring too hard and developed a blister. Don't laugh at me!! It's big and I just want it to pop and go away. Grrr. And this is the third blister this week! From COOKING!! >_<

I mean it, stop laughing at me.

Anyways. CG club Saturday, kapeesh? If Phi and Kix don't call me/write me back soon, I shall have to...umm.... well, use your imagination! And ooh, Gundam Seed 41 made me happy. And Lux is teh kewl.

I burned myself baking cookies today. XD Spent half the afternoon either slathering aloe vera on my hand or listing my woes for any that would listen to me. Well, at least my hand doesn't hurt (too much) anymore... Though I still can't feel anything with my thumb. o_O Duude, you'd think I'd learn; burns are not cool. Since I did stick my hand into the flame of a gas stove when I was three years old... (I was a stupid three-year-old, okay?) Oh well. I have bad luck in the kitchen in general. Like that time I sliced my thumb open while peeling an apple. Oooh, that sucked. See, that's why I should avoid cooking. Not because my food tastes bad, but because I'll probably end up killing myself making it. ^_^

At least the cookies tasted really good.

Duuude, where are all you guys? You all disappeared and left me aaaalll alone. ;_; *sniffles* You don't love me. Oh, CG club on August 3rd, I'm thinking. Mark your calendars!! XD ...and are we going to work on Boukensha Bu? Because if we are, I think I need to update my character design. ^^;

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go doodle. Waddya know? Signing up for a DA account has actually inspired me to draw! Sw33t. XD

Yay!! My mommy let us turn on the air conditioner tonight! (Dude, it is soo #($*ing hot. >_<) My mom is so incredibly Asian...

I made a trip to the library, finally (woohoo!!) and picked up some books, noteably Kate Elliot's newest, and C.S. Friedman's trilogy, which I haven't read yet and have been meaning to. Books good. XD Spoilers follow for (1) Kate Elliot's book, The Gathering Storm, and (2) Gundam Seed 40.

(1) Dude, Ivar, I always knew you weren't giving Baldwin enough credit. And HOW long did it take you to figure out that Baldwin was in love with you? >_> Well DUH. Heh, this has to be the most interesting pairing in the whole series of books for me, and not even because I'm a fangirl; Liath and Sanglant have gotten SOO boring (well, Liath has been sorta...absent for a while. A very long time, considering that she's a main character. I'll give her that.) Hmph, other couples...? Alain and Adica are kinda...impossible, considering she's been dead for thousands of years. Don't ever get me started on Alain and Tallia. Anna, Matto, and Thiemo are REALLY pissing me off. >_< And I can't even think of any other significant couple in the series. Ivar/Baldwin all the way!! XD Too bad Baldwin thinks Ivar is dead. That puts quite a crimp in my vision of the world.

My main gripe with the book is that there isn't nearly enough Alain. Alain makes this series. Him and maybe Sanglant. And Ivar and his bunch. ...Rosvita too. But Alain? Duuude. My favorite savior-type character in all of fiction. The way he doesn't notice all the miracles that follow in his wake is just so endearing... And he's just a sweetheart, so there! He even puts up with bitch-whores like Tallia, who is more delusional than Gundam Seed's Frey and just as deranged and bitchy. (That is saying quite a lot.) Oh, and I forgot! Blessing needs to grow up (mentally) ASAP. Or else.

...Kate Elliot's probably going to take another few years to come out with the last book. >_< Oh well. I can wait for that and the next Harry Potter, and maybe they'll come out after I take my MCATs. That'd be nice...

Next, I need to grab the new Lynn Flewelling book!

(2)Gundam Seed 40:

Asuran and Kira are solidly buddies again. I am content.

....and of course, ANOTHER country blew part of itself up (WHY did Kagari's father HAVE to stay behind again?). Now all that's left is for ZAFT to do a kablooie. And...Diakka is absolutely cute and yay!! Isaac is so...toned down now. It's weird. He needs a buddy. Frey must not be that buddy. That's all I can say. And what is that song that played at the end of the episode? It's so pretty~ It was playing when Milly went temporarily nuts too. ^^; I need to find it... The new ending theme is okay too, I guess. I might take a little while to get used to it. And Kagari and Kira being twins is...I guess it makes everything nice and tidy~ All the main people are now closely connected with each other except for Kagari and Lux. Dude, those two need to meet. I want to see what'll happen. @_@ Well, they're all heading back up to space now~ I need the next episode. >_<

I'm trying to write an entry, but I've come to realize that I did ABSOLUTELY nothing interesting today. I woke up, I read o-chem, I scanned Fanime photos (which I will put up ASAP! AX photos should also be forthcoming...), I...cleaned my desk! And...I started rebuilding my PC. That's it. Nothing else. Nada. I suck.

But Fandom Wank is great! =D I almost feel like I should feel ebul for deriving so much entertainment from it... Yeah. Almost.

Err, to people I owe money to (Phi, Kenji, and Jack): how soon do you want it? If it doesn't matter when, I'll just give it to you next time we all get together...

I need to draw~~~

stupid...pitas...ate...entry...

Oh well. Whatever. So the long and short of it is, today was my daddy's birth day so I baked cookies, I am no longer eating mush XDXDXD, I'm halfway through chapter 9 in my organic chem book, and FF9 nearly gave me a heart attack because I couldn't find a save point and my mom was making me stop playing. That's all!

Tomorrow? Clean my room!! @_@ And FINALLY reinstall my OS...

Oh! And my random quote of the day...
"I'm kupo for Kupo Nuts!" - a mog

...brain...I miss my brain.

Heehee. I'm not precisely a Democrat (I don't in fact know what I am), but I found this quiz amusing nevertheless. XD


Threat rating: High. The Bush administration is
concerned that it may not get a second term.
Therefore, we are going to change the rules so
that each Democrat vote only counts as 0.2
votes because Democrat is a shorter word than
Republican

What threat to the Bush administration are you?

Today was fun! Went to see Pirates of the Caribbean with Jen, Henry, Katherine, Patrick, and Michael (Johnny Depp was a little fruity but still yummy, Orlando Bloom was a cutie, the female lead was tough and therefore has my vote, and the Commodore dude is cool and I feel sad now that he didn't get the girl, because he was so nice in accepting it. ;_; He deserves more!! Anyways.) So yeah. Got Jamba Juice and Iced White Mocha at Starbucks because I am not capable of eating anything but mush =P, baked cookies at Jen's, and caught up on everything my Robotics buddies have been up to. Duuude, we have to come up with something to do next time Henry is back down here from Berkeley. @_@ We are sooo indecisive... Horrible! But yeah, I should sleep. Kinda dizzy from medication. XD Heehee, and I want my pictures back from being developed... want to write con report! And I want to draw. I think I'm going to go draw with Jen. That'll be fun! ^0^

And...i need to learn how to sew. >_< Would anyone be willing to give me lessons? I'll pay you! =D Eventually. ^^;

Huh. Well! Today was interesting. Well, yesterday and today... Okay, so yeah, surgery yesterday morning. Came home, discovered my darling laptop Watari had a Stop error. Or more specifically, a "Stop boot_device_inaccessible" error. Which, as you might surmise, meant that I was unable to boot Windows 2000. I tried everything; I booted under Safe Mode and every other mode available, I tried doing emergency repairs on Windows 2000 (greatly hindered by the fact that I had neglected to create an emergency repair disk last time I reinstalled Windows 2000), booting under DOS, the repair console, everything I possibly could do. And nothing worked. Meaning, all of the many, many files on my laptop were inaccessible. .....I am now greatly surprised that I wasn't majorly freaking out, because I have a LOT of shit on my Watari. My guess now is that the reason I was so calm was because of all the drugs I was on because of the surgery. =P But ANYWAYS. It all turned out okay, thankfully, because my dad had the brilliant idea of the century: we popped my harddrive out of Watari, stuck it into HIS laptop, and thankfully, his laptop recognized it, all the files were safe, and I am now happily transferring all my files from Watari's harddrive to another household computer via the in-house network. That was more than enough excitement for yesterday and today, thank you. The reoccuring migraine did not help matters at all.

Err, I'm hoping to get all my AX pictures developed by next week. Meantime, can I see some of the pictures you guys took? =D I wish I owned a digital camera. ;_;

....I will admit a perk of surgery is that I've been on a diet of smoothies, ice cream, milk, and oatmeal lately. Strawberry smoothies == YUM. I've also watched a whole lot of the fourth season of Digimon during my time as a convalescent. ^_^ Errr, it's okay. Kouichi put it up a HUUUGEEE notch for me. XD Hur hur, I feel wanky for liking Kouji x Kouichi so much. XD I swear, if it weren't for those two and Takuya, I wouldn't be watching the show at ALL. The art isn't all dreamy like the backgrounds in the first two seasons, I don't really care about the female lead all that much (Rika will always be my favorite Digimon female character... well, Geri was good too...), and...I dunno. The dialogue was just really flat for me. Maybe because I've sort of seen at all before. And the lack of the Digimon buddies sort of killed the feeling of the show for me. A major draw of the other seasons was that you had a best buddy with you all the time, someone you could share everything with and would accept everything about you, no questions asked. Who wouldn't want something like that? (especially when they're SO ADORABLE! *_*) But yeah, anyways. I need to catch up on sooo many series. @_@

And I want to cosplay Quistis next year! XD She rocks! I think I need to get a job when I'm at school so I can save up for a sewing machine, because handsewing bites. @_@

;_; Surgery tomorrow. Yuck. I don't like surgery. Morphine is good though. Yes, morphine is good. Or codeine. Or whatever it is that they decide to give me. It's aaalll good.

Freyr is da MAN!! XD Now if only my computer wouldn't choke on all the Loki eps... *sigh* Maybe I can download the XF versions instead. And Gundam Seed 39? Wheee!!! I've been waiting for this since...I don't know, the beginning fo the series! Dude, I love Gundam Seed. Favorite show of the season~ I am also watching Digimon 02, subbed, and have I mentioned that I love Paku Romi? *_* I can't wait til they get to subbing the later parts of the series~~

....and blah. Surgery. >_<

Oh, and Kenji! I don't suppose you have one of my Hikaru no Go CD's? 58-61? I am...missing it. (Yes, I'm trying to organize my CD collection. Finally. No, don't laugh at me! They WILL be organized! I mean it!!1111)

And I know I owe people money, but I'm not quite sure who or how much anymore. @_@
