Neighbors are having a party with very loud music. It makes me want to storm outside of my apt, bang on the door, and yell at them. Of course, that won't solve anything and I stay put. It sounds like a beating heart in the living room, darn it. *shakes angry fist*
So, I did do half my homework. Yes, I'm very proud of myself. That only lasted for a moment as I am sure that I threw away my business law notebook. Mi-chan will have to be the good friend and copy stuff for me for Monday's test. On Tuesday, I will have to copy all her notes and tests. My head hearts...and I feel extremely down.
Yu Yu Hakusho still has new dubbed eps on TV! But Rurouni Kenshin stopped not even in the middle of the series. Gin (sp?!) has an adorable Irish accent. I can only guess his seiyuu must have been Yamaguchi Kappei as those kind of roles are usually taken by him.
C-chan, you're such an evil seme when you rp Haru. ^_^ heeee

I've purchased the DN Angel manga since volume 3 came out and I recently was struck by RisaxSatoshi. It's been hinted a few times. I can just see them together *ducks*. Plus, thanks to C-chan, I've been searching for some good HaruxYuki fics on FF.net. -__-;; Of course, nothing found.
I did find a good fic during my search in the HP section.
I didn't start on my homework yet. Hopefully I will tomorrow. Yosh'.

Happy Birthday Mi-chan!!!!!!!
Thank you for coming an hour laaaaaate!!! But I expected it, no worries. You exaggerate on the word 'late.' But what did we do? We went to Book-Off and Kinokuniya. I bought Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok 2 that had a free school calender (April 2003-March 2004), DN Angel 8, Tennis no Oujisama 18, and Brain Powered 1. Also, I got a great deal on Glay's Heavy Gauge cd. It was $15.00! I had eel for lunch^_^ Very happy and full, that I am. I'm also quite tired from the walking, but it was worth it.
Sarah-dono, kawaiisou~~~~! Please get well-__-...
C-chan, kawaiisou~~~~~! Please get well-__-...
Now I'm regretting I didn't buy Maki Murakami's Gamerz Heaven. I'm going to do this whole day again with Sarah-dono on the weekend. I doubt we're going to Book-Off. Asahiya's closed forever, too. I hoped to go there. Mah, I wish I could've gotten doujinshi.
Ne, ne, Mayuko-sensei, now off topic, completely, used to be Hatori's koi. I'm certain that's what I read in the artbook.
*slumps and drinks iced tea*
I'm such a procrastinating bitch! I didn't do any of the homework assigned for the break. And I'm not the perfectionist type--I'm the kind who does things in a rush, sloppily sometimes, and hands it in, looking to others as if it is perfection. Ick. I have to actually start working now. I planned to.
Just remembered a hilarious excerpt from Tenipuri18 (rough, very rough translation) --
oi, Michiru, does this really make us strong?
Michiru: Haven't you seen Seigaku's strength?
(babble, team cheers that Inui's special juice has been stolen)
(next scene: ambulance rushes to hospital)
Inui: oh? How strange, it seems to be missing... (hears ambulance rushing by)

Easter Break is flying by too quickly. Oh, I only have until next Monday and the days are still passing by awfully quickly. Easter in the Orthodox church is celebrated on the 27. Nothing special is planned; no festive dinners, no church attendance because it's too bloody far away. That doesn't mean I don't pray to God or give thanks to Him. I only go to church, if it's a special occasion, whenever I go to Moscow. My cousins are "church enthusiasts" and scorn my family because we don't attend. We have enough icons at home, especially of our family's saint.
So happy Easter to all you who did celebrate on the 20th.
I'm tired from doing nothing. I haven't written anything or drawn anything spectacular. Yuna-chan's been glorifying my work, and I thank you for that, but still there are mistakes. Maybe I'll submit it to the con and see what others think, but for now, nothing special is in the works, just to let you know, hun. And C-chan, I mish yew sou much!!! ^_^ I hope you got my emails. *gohon!* And Annie~~~I love your new blog layout.
My brother's "lent" ends; he quit eating junk food for forty days, although this means no McDonald's, he says that it isn't only that. Has he kept strict to his promise? NO! He ate pizza, chips, candy, etc, but no McDonald's, lol. Now that that's over, a good order is coming up later in the day to satisfy me.
Tomorrow's Earth Day, Mi-chan's b-day, and shopping day. Much will be bought at Book-Off, Kinokuniya, and maybe even Asahiya if I can't find Animedia. We will be going to the Japanese East restaurant that has the turn-table like thing where the food goes and we get to eat whatever we want. The food is priced according to the plate design/color. I don't think we'll be watching DVDs as the remote is forever lost. We'll have to make due with...um...tapes?

I went shopping with kaa-san and ended up buying clothes and the soundtrack to Bend It Like Beckham. I also have the wallpaper from the official site on my comp. ^___^;;;; I didn't overdo it.
My mother took me to check out City College as I am to take a math placement test there (sadly, I don't need it, but the school does not have updated records). I absolutely did not like the neighborhood. My mother insisted on taking the bus home. That trip took an hour.
Plans for August are made as I'm going to the Big Apple Anime Fest with two friends. My first con, actually, and I'm not cosplaying, but my friends are. Let's just hope one does not comment to the other cosplayers on choosing the costumes.

Saw Bend It Like Beckham today. I loved the movie. I felt like jumping out of my seat cheering and dancing among some things. I saw it with the family. Unfortunately I sat in front a rude one. *rubs head* owwwiieee...but I nevertheless enjoyed it. I want the soundtrack.
So, I've been happy ever since I've seen it. So happy that I attempted to throw away my old Animericas and NewtypeUSAs. I don't need them anymore. My brother took them off my hands and told me he is going to sell them to his friend. Speaking of trying to make money, my mom wants to fly to Iraq through the UN. That is something I will not allow.
I've also visited a Fruits Basket site that has scans of the issues beyond volume 6. Kureno is awfully cute (rooster!), and I hope, I just hope, HatorixMayuko-sensei will never happen (or will take the relationship on to another level).
PS:
I want THIS

awful entry! How I wish it made more sense.
I slept through RK and YYH.
I want a new book to read.
I would like to see 'Fuji Shusuke' more often on the net.
And...Death in Midsummer bored me. Mishima-sensei *cries* when did that become ever so possible? I'm out of Yukio Mishima books to read that have been translated except for After the Banquet.
Now I want to read more of Jane Austen's works.

Which Trigun Character are You like?
Takes other quizzes at Newsies Meets Anime...Anime Meets Newsies...

What an interesting weekend. o.O;;;
I went to St. John's on Saturday. I wasn't really surprised I was the only person that came with a major of Asian Studies. People don't know what they're missing with this one. I think I was told to take two language courses. I *don't* want to take Chinese. Prolly the highlight was imagining the mascot come up to the podeum, raise his hooves in the air, and give a welcome speech. Then I told my mother I can see it drinking liquor with my brother outside on the steps while singing "99 bottles of beer on the wall." Speaking of costumed humans, my mother told me she wants to dress up in a blue bunny costume to greet my grandmother at the airport. She said "it's just like Trigger Happy!"
My brother purchased baseball tickets for the much awaited Mets vs. Mariners game on his b-day. We're sitting two rows behind the Mariners dugout. #^____^# I can only hope the same thing will happen in the game as it had on the previous one we attended on his b-day -- that I would get the ball from one of the players.
I'm looking for new material to read. I was going to read Northanger Abbey, but now have second thoughts. ~.~ And on translated manga, I want to get my hands on Angelic Layer 5 and CCD for now.
Currently watching Trading Spaces Hollywood...not as amused as I thought I would be. But nevertheless it's watchable.

WARNING! Religious Christian Talk ahead:
I'm still exhausted with new layout and entry up *thumbs up.* Just how much more can one religion class cram into my brain? I've vowed not to gossip or steal again because it's sinful. I wasn't always like this; just recently have I started to see the kingdom of heaven in a much more tangible light so to speak. I still hold a dislike for most of humanity. But I'm a sensitive person and I want to start doing the right thing for a change. I haven't always been bad, but just distant from God. Everywhere I go, somehow I'm reminded how people need to acknowledge God more for what they have in life and if it is bad, there is meaning beneath it as God is the author of life.
*groans* Sure thing. I want my freebie.
I finished the Mishima book in study. We were supposedly playing 7-up but I didn't volunteer to play. *twitch* Who would ever...? Anyway, review: The Temple of the Golden Pavilion was the exact opposite of what the Mishima movie portrayed it to be. At first I was hesitent to read it, but after doing so, I enjoyed it to a degree; I found Mishima conveyed the story beautifully. The act of burning down the Golden Temple was done around July 1st, 1950, I think. I may be wrong. For some reason, the way he conveys his characters is similar in each novel I read. I'm drawn into a philosophical world that places symbolic stress of the beauty of death, suffering, evils, and happiness. Ultimately, the life is filled with great reflection.
Jumping off topic completely here, I'm going to SJU tomorrow morning as it is a the day in which those who have been accepted gather with their parents/friends. I *hope* not to see anyone I have met in the previous years.

Re: Fruits Basket images
^^ I'm in deep lust!!!! Thank you C-chan!!!
*cough* Actually, the point of the entry was on Fruits Basket pairings. There are a lot, I'm sure there are. Recently I've taken a survey on the couples I like from the series and all of them turned up to be straight. Even YukixHaru is mild and does not count as much as TohruxKyou or KanaxHatori (not going in any order). Personally, I find it hard to go beyond the straight couples in Furuba. Recently, I've been rping what would soon go into ShigurexAkito. Yes, with Akito. Why not Yuki? Didn't Kyou say in the second manga volume, playfully, that Yuki is Akito's itoshii and Yuki took it with another insult thrown at Kyou for being Kagura's? I can't see it happening (maybe I should read the manga befor I say that), personally, although it's because of fandom that it slowly sinks into me that I feel comfortable with it. I don't mind any one's preferences because it's their own and I respect it, but Furuba seems so different. It's an entire escape from angst-filled X and even Yami no Matsuei; it's like listening to Phil Collins's new cd....lol, I'll stop. But it's giving me a piece of mind every time I watch it. Unfortunately, lately C-chan has been writing her first yaoi fic filled with ShigurexAkito....
So? Fandom is persuasive.
I received a free mouse pad from SJU in the mail. There was a URL that lead to this:
When you enroll as a full-time freshman at St. John's University for the Fall 2003 semester you get a laptop computer to keep and use throughout your entire St. John's career.

I was out today with my mother at HMV and picked up a Simon and Garfunkel (sp..?) cd as well as my Phil Collins cd. It really helps me take that stress and exhaustion that I've been having this whole week. The teachers I partly blame for assigning too many assignments and tests but also because of the students' off hand comments. One teacher particularly labeled his senior psychology class "idiots." Some of the level-headed students also complain about many of those who make the comments and misbehave. Geez, how hard is it to sit still and not say something off-topic? Oh, and while I'm at it, I'm still upset that my picture has been tracen over and butchered. If I could, I would have torn it down, but since I handed it over to the prom committee, it's "school" property. That's...an arguement.
I'm borrowing a friend's Yami no Matsuei tape tomorrow. Hopefully I can return it to her on Thursday after prolonged exposures to MurakixOriya or just Muraki and Oriya on their own. I usually borrow Chinatown-fansubbed tapes for a day, but not this time, no...
I am rounding up the end to my creative writing story from a chara's POV of the main story in 100 pages on looseleaf that which will happen some time tomorrow. I look forward to the longest project spawned by laziness, boredom, and wanting to get the idea down on paper. Tomorrow I have the class, so I can only pray that I get to write the main story.
Snow? Tomorrow? April? Brother writing report on global warming? Hmmm.......irony? Heh heh, just when the cherry blossoms think they can bloom at the botanical garden, this happens. But snow and cherry blossoms go how well together? o.O;;;;;

You're Hiro!
Which Fruits Basket Character Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla
I got Hiro three times in a row >.<;;; No, it's not that I don't like Hiro, I do, really, but it's that I don't think of him when I wish to compare myself to some one, but now that I think about it...^^; My friends tell me I'm more like Shigure though. Anyway...
My day started off with an unexpected paper cut. I didn't know I had it until I got to homeroom. ^^;;;;;; Later, as I passed the first floor, near the principal's office was a decoration for the theme of the prom. I was told to draw an image, but not to ink it. Then...
Girl: The guy doesn't look happy
Me: He looks compassionate
Result: some one traced the image and put a crooked smile. I was completely disgusted as to how horrible it turned out without my consent that I wanted to tear the image down. I'm disowning it, that I am.
Tell me, how is it that you ask how strawberries grow in economics class? And as for pros and cons, aren't 17-year-olds supposed to know what they are by now? If you only stopped complaining about how bad the school is just because it doesn't entertain you enough or that the teachers are bad because they're not making you smarter (because with what they teach, you're supposed to study and uh, try to make yourselves smarter) it would be better. I like the teachers and instead of being so lazy as I sometimes am, I don't sit around in class sulking about my own laziness and complain about the school. People are sooooo rude nowadays....
Next comes religion class where I am at ease because the sensei's one of my favorites. I was so emotional during the reading of an article on Catherine Emmerich that I nearly cried when I read it. Then...for the last class, we were to take notes. The girl next to me was chewing gum loudly and had her cell out as it landed in the toilet. -____-;;;;;;;; don't. ever. chew. gum. in. class. I drew anime-like veins all over my notes. Some students just can't stop whispering to each other either. The sound of whispers irritates me.
Yeah, so I just wanted to rant because my day's been rather shaky. Now I think I'll be cleaning up the apt because my brother can't.
C-chan, the ShigurexAkito fic kicks ass. Keep it up.
And...I've asked my mother to buy me the latest Phil Collins cd. She, too, looked at me, stunned, and added Paul Simon.
Cool.

Happy birthday Ryuichi Sakuma!!!
He is now in his mid-thirties...or late thirties...o.O??? What irony to have a b-day on April fool's, ne? *^^* I wasn't fooled at all today. It was an exhausting day for me, although I was pleasantly cheered up a few of the freshman.
Ick, curse my ignorance in AP English class! My poor essay and outline~~~I wonder what my grade would be. I'm not doing so well on the outline and I am worried about how the essay will turn out. I don't think it will be as horrible. It's as if I'm playing the role of an idiot! Why are some of my classmates calling me the sensei's fave student?! X.x I_AM_NOT!
I haven't written much ficcage in a while. I was hoping to revive my love for YamiMatsu by writing an OriyaxMuraki fic again. The first I was pleased with. I need to get my hands on the last volume once more *clenches fist* for inspiration. I have the manga (and it is quite inspirable in itself) but I have to see and hear.
I'm also being pushed into cosplaying for a con I was invited to. I'm thinking it should be Kio Kaidou from Loveless, lol! I don't wish to cosplay though...well, if I had the outfit *Seigaku regular* I would. As who, might you ask? Well...*pause* the "thrill" of wearing the "uniform" is plenty.
...What? It's the evening, I'm tired, and surely I don't make much sense of any kind.
