I want to be the wind... A wind like a breath...
At times, I want to be the wind that
fights against you, the wind that dries your tears, or the wind that eases your tiredness.
I want to be a wind like that. I want to fly. I want to sweep up sadness and spread
happiness. When you’re sad, just cry. I’ll be there. When you’re happy, just call. I’ll be there.
But because we are girls, there are times that you get tired. There are times that you hold back
your tears. In times like that, darling, I’m going to come flying down, so hold me in your arms gently.

Just woke up an hour ago from a four hour long nap, but I still feel rather sleep deprived. ^_^; But! I'm done! With! Exams~~~!!! I already feel bored. XD;; (The only people online right now seem to be the dorky orchestra guys that I don't talk much with online anyhow...) I still have the SAT I to take this Saturday...but I'm seriously considering just skipping it, and my parents don't mind if I do anyway. Heck, my dad would probably be glad that he wouldn't have to drive me to some school in downtown Houston. ^^; I didn't study for May's SAT I, and I haven't studied for this one either because I've been working like mad just to finish all my school work on time... And everyone seems to think that the June one will be the hardest, so my score could just end up getting lower. _o_ It seems futile trying to get a super high score anyway, since with my school record this year, I don't really have a chance at those really good schools anyway. I'll probably just end up going to UT. >_>
And while I'm still on the subject of the SAT, I'd like to say that my brother is an evil boy that needs to be smacked everyday for his smartass comments. >_<; "My verbal and math scores are always either exactly 10 points apart or exactly the same..." "*innocent look* Wow! Me too~<3" Why he needs to be smacked repeatedly for that is understandable when you know that he got a perfect 1600 on the SAT. Disgusting, isn't he? He has the distinguished role of being the one in my family that's freakishly good at standardized tests. And he didn't even study for it one bit. His "preparation" was going to sleep at three in the morning so as to be as sleep deprived as possible. I distinctly remember him whining "I did so baaad~~~" when he came back from taking it too.
Anyway...it's almost 7:30 pacific time, so I think it's a good time to wish you HAPPY BIRTHDAY~ My-chan~! Look, one more year and then you can legally get drunk! XD;
And good luck to everyone still suffering over their exams~

*twitch* Google, you're kidding me. Number 3?! I used to be way waaaay down there in the results. At this rate a certain evil brother will be finding this really soon. ;__; Waaaah...
Gah. Iron Chef USA with William Shatner?! I didn't even know it existed, but that's just wrong wrong wrong. Shatner just can't hope to match the coolness of the funky Japanese guy. I can't stand William Shatner. >_o
Oh, and don't worry about Friday night, Kei-chan. I was napping a long time then dragged to Blockbuster, so I wasn't on long anyway. ^^;;
Anyway, done with exams tomorrow afternoon, so I'll hopefully start (semi) regular blogging again soon. XD For now, must disappear and study like mad~

I'm sorry I haven't done any real blogging for a long while, but... *snrk* I just had to point out this coming up on my Suomi Kyoko skin. XD; Though it would've been pretty Amusing on my Hizuki skin too. *ufu*
Glad to hear your knee is getting better...and I hope your P.E. coach is wrong about the fluids. ._.
Kei-chan, I'll try to be on AIM tomorrow night, 'kay? ^^;;
And just for the heck of it. *pokes new Tickle-Me-Cindy toy* *ufu* You can blame your new nickname on yourself, because you gave me the idea anyway. >D If it helps any, there's Tickle-Me-Tristan too. Heee. And Keiko thinks the Tristan edition is more fun.

Um. No. NO. Takuto is singing this while dancing around with Mitsuki's hairbrush/makeshift microphone and stripping off his cutesy outer clothes.

Too tired and incomprehensible to really blog, but this (found via Kristin-san, who has finally resurfaced but hasn't been ficcing one bit *pouts*) was just too post-worthy not to mention...
Um, right. *choke* And I sense that someone is laughing at me...

*screams* Why is my immune system so PATHETIC? I got my Hepatitis B vaccines last fall, but a blood test from last week shows that I'm not immune. And from what I've read, the vaccine has a very high success rate...around 95%, IIRC. And I'm not immune to Hepatitis A either, since I got encephalitis the day after the first shot back last spring (and my mom would've brought me to Thailand to meet my grandparents if I hadn't gotten sick >__<;;), so everyone's too afraid to try that again. Stupid stupid pathetic immune system. XO

np: Wake Up Angel ~Negaimashite wa Mugen nari~ - Funta [Pita-Ten Op Clip]
*warbles* I wiiiish~ hello, wake up angel~<3~! Like Erin-san says, this song is wonderfully catchy~<3 And the very beginning reminds me of Super Bomberman. XD;; The actual sequence itself is FUN and SPAZZY. XDDD I have just about no idea what Pita-Ten is about, but I want to see it after watching the opening. Though the blonde cat girl reminds me Koge Donbo's design for Hermione...must be the hair. o_o; It's still up for download at Anime-daisuki.com, so go see it everyone~
And after many many hours of downloading, I've seen the first two episodes of Full Moon wo Sagashite (raw...but BakaMX is in the process of subbing it). I wub Meroko's voice~<3 <3 <3 I had only heard Honda Chieko in a few minor roles before, but I really really liiike her now~<3 Takuto's seiyuu fits him. XD (Diet Coke Of Seki, Meimi? X3) Where's his kitty tail though~? T_T And am I the only one that's reminded of Rocket Dan after watching the "Negi Ramen!" sequence? O_O;; As a whole, I'm not really sure yet if I really like the Full Moon anime that much, but I'll keep watching it cos I'm such an Arina h0.
Meimi, I <3 the Negi Ramen layout (I always do like your layouts~). X3 And thanks for the yubikiri recs and translations~<3 I read Short Sunzen, since I actually have the 1999 November Ribon at the moment. Are all of Shiina Ayumi's stories that Fun? I've never actually gotten around to reading Baby Love, Penguin Brothers, or anything else by her, though everyone on the Ribon list seems to really like her work. ^^;;
P-san, you're right, sheis seriously disturbed, but I can't stop reading her fics. o_o Um, how shall I assist the resisting? XD And...that cutesy blue blob is Yuusuke's egg?! I had no idea... o_o;; I guess this says Something about Yuusuke's soul, deshou? XD;; I've only seen episodes 1-12, along with four somewhere in the 50s or 60s (eh, it involved that tournament, and Genzai's past, IIRC), so I'm not well-versed in the world of Yuu Yuu Hakusho...and my brothers lost the tape with 9-12 and the four tournament episodes were never recorded. *shiku shiku* Darn, I really wish I could see Puu hatch now. X3
Incidently, the first night I watched the dub Yuu Yuu Hakushou was the same day that you saw it. I'll probably end up watching it, despite the dubbing that makes me want to cry. I want know what happens after episode 12~
I watched Champions on Ice on TNT last Saturday~<3 It was wonderful and sparkly and oh-so-traumatizing. There were, not one, not two, but FOUR cross-dressing men during the program, complete with huge fake boobs. O_O;; There were two in Swan Lake ballerina costumes (in a rather...novel...program that looked rather painful...), another in a miniskirt, tank top, hideous red wig, and skates made to look like black pumps (he even did the female part in a few pairs moves, like the death spiral XD;;), and the last (Viktor Petrenko) was as Mrs. Doubtfire (with huge smiley face boxers), after shedding his Eric Cartmen outfit. All in all, it was a very interesting three hours. o_o;; There was one Russian skater that used over a dozen hula hoops, along with a giant silver Slinky (XD~) around her body at the end. She even did a double toe loop while still keeping several hula hoops spinning around her body~ Evgeny Plushenko was there too and did his Carmen program again, which I think was much better than before. It seems like he worked on making it impressive and flashy, without resorting to being outright tacky. Also got to see Elvis Stojko and Michael Weiss insulting each other backstage (like typical men). Weiss (seriously) made the suggestion of figure skaters judging themselves, and Stojko told him he'd give him a 1-1, no matter how perfectly he skated. XD;; The whole three hours was really fun, but that's the stuff that really stuck out in my mind. <3
I also /finally/ watched the last half of Grease, which I always managed to miss before, despite watching the first half numerous times... It's fun, but I don't think I'll ever be able to stand John Travolta. ~_~;
