I've been so busy as of late that I completely forgot about the TVXQ lawsuit, even though I sleep/sit next to my shiny Mirotic poster almost every night (lol when I actually sleep, that is). BUT! TVXQ HWAITING! I'm so happy they won! So happy that they'll be in Kouhaku again this year! So happy that they'll stay as a group of 5. <33

Now I wish I completely planned things out. I don't know how likely it will be for my cousin to come over, and 119a isn't so much of a project class, which would mean that, had I actually bought plane tickets in the summer, I could go to Japan. ;_; *hates self*

They're having a bunch of fan meets mid January too! T_T

I've been so out of touch with everything lately. I've probably been getting, on average, 2-3 hours of sleep every night. So much work. Every thing's due one right after the other. It's so annoying. ;_; I bombed my last physics quiz too~~ Not to mention my epically failed kanji quiz. -.-

And I had to take an extension on 119... though pretty much everyone did.

It was Halloween yesterday. It's only 1:19 AM right now... but it was 1:40 something AM before. The extra hour is kind of awesome and much needed, but I can't believe I just wasted an hour being unproductive and going through some 700 LJ posts.

It's midterms week. I have 2. I haven't taken any. Ugh.

I pulled practically 2 all-nighters to get my simulation program to work properly. My Abel file was mostly done on Monday night. Ridiculous. I feel like an idiot.

Last week~ I saw Bill Nye the science guy. LOL. I think I've only seen maybe one episode of that thing. Tony got me an autograph. Yay :D I also wasted some 3 odd hours that Friday night Photoshopping different Tony's face onto umm... I don't know that guy's name, but he's one of the members of Versailles (yeah, that visual kei band). It actually worked out really nicely. Pretty Tony :3. People were kind of creeped out though.

That was kind of fun. I exchanged $20 for 10 $2 bills. They were crisp too!

I also... did this funky falling off thing... Uhh... so Jennifer was sitting on a chair and I was sitting on the I don't know what you call it. But she got up and the chair flipped over, so I landed on my arse. x3 It hurt a lot at the time. ;_; We then spent the rest of the night singing random Broadway songs. Chinese opera? Haha.

Once we find some more time, I think we're going to an archery range.

News? There are a few visual kei bands performing, huh? And Domo-kun's creator is going to be at the Northridge Borders this Thursday! I used to go practically every weekend, but I haven't gone in 3 years. D: There's this tiny Japanese restaurant there that has some pretty awesome/cheap dishes. And it's legit too. Japanese restaurant run by Japanese people! o__o

I also went with Jennifer and Tony to Little Tokyo last weekend. I bought some milk tea and umm... another alpha gel pencil, because it was only $8 at the market (I mean, it costs a bit more than $6 in Japan, so, IMO, it's worth it... even though I still have a few unopened ones lol...) I also bought one of those funky erasable highlighters. Overpriced, but cool. xD

Oh and Marie Callendars was having their annual pie sale, so I got my dad to buy kahlua cream cheese, pecan, and some chocolate pie for $7 a piece + tin. There's still some left. I wonder if it's still edible.

As for Halloween? I wore my maid/cafe costume to Lollicup. Everyone there was from Caltech, but I think I got some interesting looks on the way (well, Doris had a scary clown outfit on and I had cat ears and a tail - the ones I bought work very nicely once the ears are sewn a bit yep :3 - thanks Jennifer!). This other person also randomly took a picture of me when I was going to watch the Dabney pumpkin drop. It was a bit strange.

Also, turns out there are 22 applicants for the internship this year. Normally, there are fewer applicants than spots available. This year, there's a 1/3 chance of getting in. Not cool. ;_; I really really really want to go though! I need to work on a resume and ask for a rec from Glen. Mmm...

Jaejoong's sister got married? Omedetou!

I woke up at 4 PM today, 'cause I basically hadn't slept for the last 2 nights. 16 hours of sleep, and a Chipotle/Halloween costume store run prior were awesome though!

Lang Lang's performing next week. I wish I could go.

One of the JPL founders died this week. He was Chinese. It was a pity that he was forced to leave the US because of anti-communist sentiment... It was unfair.

As for animanga fandom,

I watched the first 2 episodes of Kobato 2 weeks ago. I haven't had time for any more. Hana realized her feelings! But I wonder what's going to happen. I mean, I know they're going to end up together, but yeah... the whole mortal with demon who has a much longer lifespan thing is a big problem, huh? Lol. Sakura's confession to Naruto was kind of lame. D: But I'm happy I get to see more Byakuya action in Bleach. Maybe Ulquiorra will rise from the dead and help Ichigo. ;_; But maybe I'm asking for too much. I mean, you still have Ishida and Orihime. Then you have Yuuki Cross. Umm... Yeah. Kaname Kuran is pretty. x3 I'd prefer him to what's his face hunter dude. >_< *lapse of memory*

'scuse the semi-incoherent entry.

Happy late Halloween.

Oh yes, and Sailor Moon's almost 20th anniversary is coming up. I feel old. I can't believe I feel old.

I was busy doing sets all night. I thought our kanji quiz would be tomorrow, but I found out a minute before walking into the classroom that it was today. I failed. x_x

Skip Beat! Ren, hurry up and kiss Kyouko. D:

So my first 119 set... >_>; In the end, why'd I change my answer? I should've just listened to Glen and not gotten so confused. D: Actually, in that case, I shouldn't have gone to office hours two Wednesdays ago. Well, I guess it's still my problem for not really understanding... Now I'm confused. What did the TAs *coughcough* mean? And I kind of thought we didn't have to factor. *sigh* 62/70. Lousy.

So I turned in my 830 some character Japanese essay at 11:37 (?) PM last night. Set/Essay/Quiz due every day this week. ._. 119 was painful ;_;

And I slept until 5 PM today. Yep.

What else?

I had this long conversation with Paul about people we thought were good looking. Haha. ^^;

Happy birthday Tsu-chan <3

It's only the end of the 3rd week of school. I feel so dead. Homework and more homework. It never ends. It almost feels more stressful than last term, even considering the fact that 52 was a ridiculously time consuming class. >_<

I haven't really slept much all week. 2 or 3 hours a night? ;_;

I do feel a little less stressed out about the nitty gritty details of things, which, I guess, is progress. *sigh*

Japanese essay!

Crappy week. Yessiree.

I counted approx. 14 hours of sleep since Sunday 8 AM.

So, a single input NAND gate is equivalent to an inverter. >_< But do I draw it as an inverter or as a NAND gate? I mean, Glen did specify that we were supposed to draw the "function" instead of the physical gate... And then you have the logic equations... Do you write them for activeness or for logic levels? x_x It seems both works, but I seem to get different replies from TAs and from my prof (miscommunication? >_<). @_@

And I guess I got something terribly wrong, because I didn't reuse logic. -_-

Crap. At this point, I don't care if I do well in my other classes. I have to do well in this class. @_@

...Since it seems things are getting kind of hopeless. I'm being totally pwned by my sets.

lol... I think I've been replaced. Now I'm just a third wheel. =\

Somehow, I managed to only get 8 hours of sleep since... Sunday 8 AM? I guess that's not too bad, comparatively speaking...

I have 3 more sets due this week. x_x

Oh, and the Tsubasa ending was a bit nonsensical. Or at least I haven't been able to follow the last x chapters. >_>;

I managed to pull an all-nighter doing math. x_x I've come to the conclusion that I really don't like math... I ended up missing an important lecture because I slept past 2. x_x I hate myself.

This one person I met at Anime Expo came over. It felt awkward. I didn't really like the whole experience.

Then I had a long conversation with Yuehan and Travis about my inability to decline requests from people I'm not the closest to. =\ Something about disappointment and wanting to feel accepted, yadda yadda.

But I kind of also just broke down and started ranting about what my last 2 points were about. *sigh*

3rd wheel. I hate that feeling.

But it was good to let everything out... and I'm really happy that my cousin e-mailed me. n_n My cousin's awesome. Yep.

I wonder if I look up to him unnecessarily, but still! The feeling's nice.

I'm feeling a bit glum.

You know the feeling you have when you lend a precious possession to a friend, and said friend returns it in a different condition? (Well, it doesn't necessarily have to have been returned damaged or anything. Even if the friend ends up returning the thing in better condition...) You gave the thing to the person in the way you liked it, and he/she returned something different.

Yep. That's probably a terrible metaphor for whatever, but that's kind of how I feel. @_@

Classes are... why on earth do we have so many sets on the first week? Ahh!

I think I might come to enjoy EE119.

My AADBSK box sets have been... "damaged"? >_>; Moving things around and having other people handle things I care about = no-no. *sigh* Micky and Jae are doing just fine on their own. They're my favorite members, but it'd still be horribly sad if they announced that they would be disbanding as a group.

And I somehow feel as though there's some kind of strange distance growing between me and some friends.

I know I'm just over-thinking things. I guess it's normal. If you have more classes with a person, you'll become closer to that person. If you have fewer classes with the person, you grow apart.

It's just really annoying. >_< I don't want to feel like I did when my best friend got a girlfriend and basically stopped talking to me, granted his girlfriend was also a friend. It makes you feel like you're in the dark. Kind of lonely, you know?

My schedule's a bit messed up right now. Hmmm... I've been studying/not getting very far. Yep. No good.

So I managed to get sugary water on my trackpad and a multitude of other things. Great job, Angie!

These last few days have been... interesting. I wanted to get a futon for the room, but after moving in, I couldn't imagine a futon fitting in anywhere. Even though we're using this room as a double, there's an extra set of everything (cabinets, drawers, bed, desk...) that serves only to really occupy space. So yes, I was reluctant to get the extra futon. My roommate bought a futon, fridge, and bucket chair second hand for $140. I wouldn't have paid so much for second-hand items, but... what's done is done.

I'm still unpacking.

My roommate/friends helped move the furniture around while I went to Josh's surprise birthday party (which went really nicely x3~ It was fun talking). The space is still open, so that makes me happy.

I went around wearing a target plastic bag as a makeshift outfit. x_x And... e went around with my Rokkugo poster, asking if the SuJu-T members looked more like guys or girls. XD Poor Heenim <3

I just listen to more SuJu-KRY songs, only because I like Yesung. x3

Anywho, we went shopping for furniture/accessories yesterday.

I still haven't bought most of my books, and classes start tomorrow.

Edit: So it's 1:18 AM Tuesday morning. Today was kind of fun. I cleaned. lol... I am having major issues with classes/scheduling. >_>

I think that's it?

Again?

This time, I'm armed with a handful of posters and other fandom items. x3 I can't believe just how many random boxes and bags I'm actually bringing. x_x Too much eek.

Anyways, I went to my favorite restaurant one last time. They told me that they talked about me after I left last Sunday. Oh dear. >_< Whenever I bring a guy friend with me, they always think he's my boyfriend. Ahaha.

Ah well.

I guess this means I won't be spamming my f-list as often. Sorry for spamming to begin with. >.

I wound up in Pomona a little after 8 this morning. Guess who I saw?

At my new employees' orientation way back in June, I met this lady. I think she just recently graduated from UCI and was engaged. I happened to overhear her conversation about possibly attending Anime Expo.

A convention with 40,000 people? It's actually quite easy to bump into people you know there.

I saw her on the last day, probably within 15 minutes of the exhibit hall's closing. She was with her fiance. Lucky?

So yes, I bumped into the same person in Pomona.

The new Naruto and Bleach chapters are getting pretty interesting. Too bad they're so short. I'm still completely at a loss over the news that Nodame is ending. It's too sudden. It just barely reached the finishing stretch.

I'm waiting on books. I need to return library books. I need to pack. I need to bring along posters. I have a party to go to. I need to move in tomorrow.

There are a lot or miscellaneous, somewhat tedious things I have to take care of. Not cool.

Does anyone know of ways to hang posters without puncturing them? I don't really want to risk taping the back and not being able to remove the tape. I was thinking of using a combination of command strips and magnets, but I'd need fairly strong magnets. =\

As for why I was in Pomona... well... Let's just say that people were actually friendly there. They smiled and looked like they were actually looking out for you. I went home without ever asking anyone about a photo retake. I don't care anymore.

Talk about last chance.

This time, the guy was also more compassionate.

Great.

NODAME CAN'T END. *whines*

Nodame isn't ending next spring. It's ending a little more than 2 weeks from today? WHAT?! Spring would've been perfect. Sure, it was wrapping up, but my goodness... that last chapter, as awesome as it was, could not have seriously been the prelude to the end. D: I know you have a kid and all, but oh my goodness. D:

Last day physically on the job. Sandals are now out of season. What on earth happened to Kangin? D: I feel out of touch with the world. Skip Beat was amazing, though it's becoming more like your typical shoujo with each new chapter. I was talking about the love square (though it's not really a square; neither is it a triangle, for that matter...), and Brian said;

its more like a T
1 interloper
in a 1 way street

lol!

She had better end up with Ren. Yuuki had better end up with Kaname, though that seems more doubtful, what with Zero. I hope it won't be the case where Yuuki decides she can't love her brother and attempts to save Zero from whatever. Umm...

So at the DMV yesterday (do I really want to remember this?!), there was this one Chinese guy. He was umm... okay looking I guess, but he had, well, you know, your typical idol type of hair style. There were these two other guys who were standing by the doorway. As the Chinese guy walked out, I guess he hastily hit one of the guys standing by the door... He walked off, and the guys were making fun of him... x_x Something along the lines of glad they didn't mess up his hair. x_x sarcasm, much? Poor guy.

grrr!

I failed. But! Today started off shitty, and ended up shitty. What else am I supposed to expect? Sure, I finally caught up with the most recent chapter of Skip Beat. Sure, I just waited for 4 hours. Sure I had been crying for most of those 4 hours. Sure I think government workers are heartless. Sure I think my driving instructor fails epically, though I feel bad for him. Sure I missed work. Sure I missed seeing Scott for the last time. Sure this sure that. Here. Read this instead.

Angie
3:01
i failed
i hate my driving instructor
Conformity
3:01


Angie
3:01
the proctor person said i failed with like
half of the test to complete
but the paper had everything checked off
so i guess i failed
because of the last lane change
which was retarded
'cause thte car in the lane i was supposed to change into
just kept on staying there
but i was already traveling at 35
so
i didn't want to speed up too much to get ahead
but she said i ended up stopping
but i really don't think i did stop
'cause i was looking
for that stupid 35 mph
Conformity
3:03
ouch

Angie
3:03
i ean
mean
in that case
you could slow down and let the car in the next lane pass you right?
like i even waited an awfully long time
before attempting to change
but it seemed like no matter what
that car was just like
there

[insert something about i drove too slowly that the car behind me had to stop?! ... well, the car in the other lane just wasn't letting up, though it's funny to say i stopped.........]

Conformity
3:04


Angie
3:04
and the worst part was
i got to the shitty dmv office
at 9
right
but the idiot instructor made a mistake with the appointment
so he drove me all the way to west covina
and i sat there for 3 hours
and he never so much as said sorry
and he just left me there
and i forgot my phone
so i was in panic mode
and at 12:30 pm
Conformity
3:05


Angie
3:05
he tells me we're driving back
and then at 1
Conformity
3:05
wowzers

Angie
3:05
we end up at the pasadena dmv again
and i seriously hadn't eaten for the longest time
and i had a headache from crying so much
and i took the shitty test
with the proctor
that like
when i asked a question
you know
i hate government workers
so spiteful
Conformity
3:06


Angie
3:07
and i told my boss i was supposed to get to work at lunch
and i was supposed to eat lunch with scott
and stuff
i dunno
is that supposed to be a normal experience?
i was already nervous as it was
then it turned to anger
and disappointment really quickly
Conformity
3:08
~_~. You just have a knack for getting shitty days

Angie
3:08
and i finally started talking back to the teacher
and you know what?
even though he never said so much as a fucking sorry
for once, he actually seemed a bit... umm... compassionate?
after i failed...
and he bought me lunch
i guess...
though i just realized i left the hamburger in his car
Conformity
3:09
~_~

Angie
3:13
is that really normal?
i mean
Conformity
3:13
your driving test?

Angie
3:14
way to make me feel even more like shit
yes
Conformity
3:14
No not really
this is why you plan your own shit.

Angie
3:14
so
in that case
making a lane change
what should i do?
just go past the speed limit?
she said 'cause i ended up making the lane change too late
i wasn't able to get to a turn too...
even though all of the turns had been circled and stuff
Conformity
3:15
just go at a time when roads are less crowded

Angie
3:16
but it wasn't crowded
Conformity
3:16
you have to strategically plan your driving test ~_~

Angie
3:16
it just happened to be that one car
and it was being annoying as hell
and my god
why did today suck so much?
Conformity
3:18
bad tends only tend to get worse
shitty days pretty much jsut get shitty exponentially with time

Angie
3:19
so my mom just pointed out
and i thought of it too
that the guy just wasted
his whole day
with me
even though he could've been earning money with other jobs
so that
i dunno
Conformity
3:19
lol burn.

Angie
3:19
yeah, i sort of feel bad
but it was his fault
i dunno what to do anymore
;_;
and here's where you're supposed to come in and blame me for being an idiot

Conformity
3:20
lol
well its a shit day
not gonna shit on it more haha

Angie
3:21
but you normally do
Conformity
3:21
most of it was just really bad luck lol

Angie
3:21
and that ends up making me feel better
Conformity
3:21
lol
if you wanna be shit on
i could just say plan better moron.

Angie
3:21
yessir
lol...
i dunno
Conformity
3:21
set your own appointments
and use your parents shit

Angie
3:21
use my parents?
but they're never home
they have work
they drive to work
that's why i never practice either
or rather, i hardly do
i don't have a car readily available
also
as much as i'd like to be able to drive
my parents forced me into this situation
i'm so tired
Conformity
3:24
go to sleep

Angie
3:27
i don't feel like it

Angie
4:08
i feel like i'm just pitying myself
T_T
Conformity
4:08
go read some manga

Angie
4:08
finish skip beat
lol
Conformity
4:10
you finished?

Angie
4:10
nope
26 more chs
Conformity
4:10
then get to work

Angie
4:10
yessir
sorry for bugging you

[...]

Angie
5:04
aside form crying at home
Conformity
5:04
and say you didnt check till it was too late

Angie
5:04
or like holding it in and then breaking up at the spot
or like
asking you for help/advice
etc.
i just really
can't face these situations well
like i blew up today
Conformity
5:05
feigning ignorance
best way
to dodge situations
lol

Angie
5:05
but it makes me feel bad
that i'm not trying hard enough
Conformity
5:05
well thats your fault

Angie
5:05
i mean
Conformity
5:05
It is not your responsibility to help people who ask for help

Angie
5:06
you could argue feigning ignorance
Conformity
5:06
if you're helping someone it should be ebcause you want

Angie
5:06
'cause i'm blaming my instructor
for everything
but really
Conformity
5:06
not ebcause you are compelled to by some misguided sense of conscience
hmm i need fix how i type because.

Angie
5:06
it was really just unexpected
not like he could do much
and then i wasted his time
and threw a fit because i was just fed up
Conformity
5:06
every day is a new learning experience ~)~

Angie
5:06
but if i look at things from his point of view...
i mean
he's not a bad guy, i guess
he just has no patience
and he can't say sorry when he should
but
like after i failed and when he got me lunch and stuff
and even when he left
i kind of think he was feeling guilty
but rather than like
taking his feelings into consideration
i went berserk
though i'm been holding that berserk mode down for several weeks now
i was one hour
from finishing this
i mean
even if i did fail...
without that situation...
Conformity
5:08
you need to go on vacation ~_~

Angie
5:08
hah
Conformity
5:09
rather you should start smoking pot or something.

Angie
5:09
LOL
calm myself down?
Conformity
5:09
it would benefit you greatly
lol @ visual image of angie smoking pot
hahahaha

Angie
5:13

Angie
8:45
it wasn't that
omg ish
typical shoujo manga
lol
rather, this is actually becoming more typicall
-l
not to say i don't like it
but...

WTF. $65 for a 2 hour lesson. He spends probably 5 minutes going to the bathroom. The lessons are actually never quite 2 hours long. I run errands for him (like dropping people off or driving to the bank). Sure, I get "practice" from doing that but my god. Hahahaha. My parents are idiots~ lalala. I'm an even bigger idiot for even having the slightest bit of sympathy for a man that might "lose his job" because of me. $85 just to use his car for a driving test I know I'm going to fail. I was thinking... $28 for a stupid permit. Okay. $6 to retake. Okay. $85 for borrowing a stupid car?! Hahahahahaha. So, why was none of this clarified to begin with? >_>; He asks me if I want to take lessons before the test. I bet he knows I'm going to fail. Damn it. I hate losing to people like that. Then he's going to ask if I want to take more lessons. AHAHAHA. HAHAHAHA. HAHAHAHAHAHAH.

Another "lesson" + "renting" a car = $150. LOL. And here I was freaking out about textbooks. Heck, I thought my trip to Japan was expensive. LOL. But I feel like crying now, because I think we've spent in excess of $500 on these retarded lessons that have made me feel like some insignificant lab monkey. It would've been more helpful to just drive around in my parents' car every day of the week, instead of just spending two weekend mornings every week panicking and crying and shit.

Heck. I thought so much as... when I picked up the phone, he actually sounded... friendly. What!?

WHAAAT?!

I am an idiotttt. idiot. idiot. idiot.

*distraught maniac*

It's not illegal to wear flip flops while driving, but... jeez. For once, my mom asked if I wanted to drive home from work. Bad idea. For several reasons.

While you're wearing them, it's almost like you ahve to completely relearn how to break/accelerate. :x On one hand, I'm focusing on keeping my shoes from slipping. On the other hand, I'm worrying about breaking. I break too lightly when I'm wearing them. I was turning into our street, and umm... I didn't break enough, so I completely missed the opportunity to turn. Ahaha. Just as a police car was driving past, and the guy gave me a weird look. >_>;

So, I've been panicking all day about this test I know I'm going to fail. Then probably sometime slightly after 3:30, I think I snapped. Now I feel so complacent. It's so awful. D:

Here I am, driving along my street, and someone's backing out of the driveway. Okay, so the person should stop. And I keep proceeding forward. But the person doesn't stop, so, alright, I stop. However, by this time, I'm basically right in front of the person. And the person still doesn't see me. It was like everything was happening in slow motion. My mom ended up using the horn. Thank goodness for that. In that case, whose fault is it? If you stop at the beginning of the scenario, then, well, technically, you're supposed to have the right of way, and maybe other people behind you would honk. Then you realize the person who's backing up didn't see you, so you stop. You're not going to back up yourself. the person keeps on going... Irony is, by the time this all ended, the front of her car was directly facing/parallel to mine. Huh? Wrong side of the road?

So all in all, I'm going to fail. I love failing. Yes indeedy. I blame this partially on the instructor. I mean, I panic easily. I read in the stupid teach-your-child-how-to-drive handbook that parents are supposed to "calmly" instruct their children. WTF.

I'm totally fine when I drive with my dad.

But just thinking about my instructor and anything related to him just makes me feel like I need to jump off of a cliff from the pressure. >_<

He never once said I was prepared for this. At the start of the week, I thought that I was initially just freaking out about classes starting. But now that this stupid test is coming up, I just... ;_; can't take it anymore.

shieet.

In other news, my work is not really wrapping up. There's too much left to do; some to redo. *grumble*

And yes, heck, I'm really worried about classes. I thought I was fortunate enough to be able to buy a book off a friend, but I didn't respond in time, and she got a reply from someone else. >_< I'm such an idiot~ I need to go buy books. Well, for any other class, I'm sure I can buy a used copy... or just borrow one. But there are what? 20 students in any given Japanese class per year... and now, due to freaking budget cuts, our "bookstore" no longer carries textbooks. Ahahahaha. Need to buy from B&N~~

On the bright side, I finally found my alpha gel pencil that has been missing since the start of winter break.

I wonder if the driving instructor will ask that I take more lessons with him after I fail my driving test. This isn't a scheme, right? He never once said I was ready. Eff this. It's not like I practice much outside of practicing with him. And it's not like he calms me down. >_>;

Carried over from last week.

Why am I in such a bad mood? >_>; umm... rhetorical question. don't answer that.

So annoyed. So annoyed.

I love these heated discussions about how to do things that kind of make my blood boil. lol. ahahahah. >_>;

matter-of-fact facebook status message:

The oh so mighty Conformity-sama recommended that I read Skip Beat. Actually, Brian's mentioned it way too many times for me to not read it. >_>; Loser made me start an unfinished series *pout*. It's so hard to wait for new chapters if a series isn't weekly. I finally finished the first 45 chapters. Yeah, I'm a slow reader.

I think the last manga I was really this worked up for was probably Kare Kano. Dude. Why does he read so much shoujo?! Well, I have to say that I also liked Penguin Prince and SA. Manga highlights from the summer? (and the one about the girl who can see the future and the guy who can see that past - can't remember the name...)

Went to eat sushi with Tim. It was fun. x3

Driving test. Fail. Yay! >_>; Within the first 20 minutes, I made ~9 "mistakes" that my driving instructor pointed out. Within the next 20 minutes, I maybe made ~5? Then here I was, glancing to the back before changing lanes, and as I was doing it, the car that was turning out of a parking lot suddenly turned even though I'm supposed to have right of way. >_>; Damnit. I don't seem to be getting much out of this. ~_~ Yep. Driving tests and umm... slightly off normal circumstances? I wonder how many people fail because of those. Too many things to freak out about = NG.

I'm going to failll. failll. faiiillll~ shit lalala.

Yesterday, I drove to this umm... I don't really know what you call it in Monterey Park. A drive that usually takes ~20 minutes by freeway ended up taking me in excess of an hour. Then I went to Souplantation with Doris and Yuehan and some of the Chinese international prefrosh. Pretty cool stuff x3. Everyone seems to be very friendly~ We went to this welcome party for the prefrosh held by some Chinese association on campus. It was awkward. @_@ It really didn't help that my accent sucks and Doris kept on making fun of me for that. No offense, but that kind of got me mad. It's one of those things that I hate being made fun of.

I don't really like to hang out with people in groups who tend to speak anything but English every waking second. They end up coming off as a bit pompous just because they can do as such. It irks me. It's like they'll look down on you for not being able to speak the language or not being able to speak it fluently.

I'm okay with common exchanges.

But it's like saying that someone who can only hold light conversation is mute.

So yeah.

That aside, we went to Avery, and I got to hang out with some friends I haven't seen since June. They were playing card games in UFB, but after we settled in UGT, a bunch of them came over and conversed with the prefroshies.

I'm going to fail~ la la laaa~

I feel like every minute or so my driving instructors points out that I forgot to look left and right at an intersection or something. I mean, I do look... until I forget to after he bombards me with some other complaints about driving. I think the hardest thing for me right now is to remember to look in all directions when making a right turn. I just have a tendency to blank out and worry only about oncoming traffic.

Oh, and my dad thinks I'm becoming fat. Great.

I think I saw the novel version of it printed in Chinese when I went to China in '05. I find it difficult to read tragedies, but I wonder why I hadn't already read it. My goodness. It was so good. I cried through the latter half. Even if plots driven by diseases and tragic romance are still used too frequently, I'm completely enthralled by them. They're definitely quite a change from the mahou shoujo/romance comedy plots with which I amuse myself on a daily basis. :x I mean, one could argue they're more "real," but then again, are they really? Idealized, short-lived romances?

It seems like it would be impossible to move on, but it's not.

*sigh*

It's a stark contrast from Little Butterfly and other series I've been reading for "eyecandy."

In other news, today wasn't the best. I got to work early for a training session. I misread a problem even though our instructor specifically told us to watch out and read that problem carefully. I feel like a dunce. xD

My mom's friend treated me out to sushi for lunch, and in exchange, umm... yeah, it felt like I was giving a strange college counseling session. XP Applying to college isn't something parents should get all worked up for. Let your kids apply where they want to and don't be helicopter parents!

Then I was... um... well, so the system messed up. I entered the right number. Somehow, I feel like I'm being blamed for something that was out of my control. I went out of my way to find help, but I was given poor advice by a "specialist." -_- I'm not too familiar with the system, but please don't repeat a question while sounding anguished over my stupidity or something. What on earth was the purpose for asking if I was disabled over the telephone? And the lady kept on asking me if I worked from home... Was I that suspicious or something? I'm still new to this! Give me a break! Jeez. Sure, I'm not worth your time.

Then I was supposed to leave with my mom, but I got a call from my supervisor, so I stayed and talked to her. I'm upset. I asked my mom to wait for me, but she wasn't willing to. She had to pick my brother up from his friend's house. Then she went to McDonalds, and she said, rather than waiting for me to make my trek outside (since she couldn't enter the facility what with my brother being in the car), she'd go home and then get me.

Seriously. I hated going to that "thing" called "daycare." I hated it when people stole my money or threw my book in an unused trailer. This happened during "daycare" at a Catholic school. Hahahaha. WTF right?

I had to go because my mom had to work. Even during finals week, when I got off at noon (in high school), my parents were reluctantly picking me up.

But now? My brother gets off from school. He can endure the shitty 45 minute bus ride like me. Instead, my mom picks him up early or he goes to play at a friend's house. That is so unfair.

Since my mom had decided to take my brother home, and then reluctantly come back (you can tell from her voice), I decided that I'd just blow off steam taking the bus home.

Oh great. That only took an hour and 15 minutes. >_>; It brought back a lot of memories too; I took the same bus I used to take to get home form high school. Bitter memories.

I'm feeling really pissed off. Why is this week going so badly? I know it partially has to do with my attitude towards this week. All this negativity is doing me no good, but there's still something really off.

In conclusion? This week sucks. Yay!

So I know AX preregistration has been open since around the end of July, but now I find out Comic Con 4-day memberships are also available? o_O

They're both out half a year too early...

And here I was thinking I'd go and register just in case I didn't plan to go out of the country.

The first and only time I went to CC, I could still buy a child membership. It's $100 for 4 days now. >_>; It's not like Miyazaki's coming back, and the only anime/manga related company that ever brings any amazing GoH is Viz. Hm... But seriously, unless they decide to bring along Kishimoto, Obata, or maybe Watsuki or Konomi, I don't really care. Tokyopop lost most of its Kodansha acquisitions too... I guess Konomi might go. Watsuki hasn't done anything after Busou Renkin. I have a feeling maybe Kishi will go next year. o_o What with all the Naruto hype and the crazy simulcasts these days, it would make perfect sense.

I had a depressing dream. I don't remember much, but uhh... yeah. >_>;

Today, I managed to get a lot done. *nod*

But I'm still kind of in a bind. >_>;

2PM HWAITING!

Why did Itachi have to die for a loser like Sasuke?

I actually managed to get things sort of working today. Granted, it was supposed to be a very small part that was just being a pain in the ass. >_>;

昨夜は、セブンデイズ を読んだ。すごいBLまんがだ。xD

Why is it that all of the popular manga on MangaFox and BakaUpdates (or whatever it's called) are ecchi? :x Seriously.

And I just realized that I've grown out of using the term bishounen. I wonder if it's due to the times or due to my age... Sure, I still talk about pretty guys a lot. Hmm.

ジャッキー,誕生日おめでとう〜〜〜〜＜３ ILU.

And it kind of feels like Halloween. xP You know, more so than any other "holiday" of the year, Halloween makes me feel nostalgic. The year's almost over, but it seems like, especially now that I'm in college, Halloween is the New Years of the academic calender. A year to me is an academic year. o_o Winter break just happens to be, well, a break from the year; a break from school?

Anyways, I've digressed.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACKIE!

Spoilers:

Loveless - uwaaah~ Kio has a sister :o I wish Kouga Yun-sensei would finish new raburesu chapters sooner~ As much as I liked 00, Loveless just means so much more.
Fullmetal Alchemist - Finally! It's starting :o Everyone who opened the gate has been sucked in somewhere~ No Hoenheim-papa and Father this chapter.
Hana to Akuma - I kind of wonder what the story would have been like if Vivi hadn't saved Hana a few chapters ago. xP Velton discovers he loves Eleanor, and just what is Lucifer-sama planning to do with Hana? :3

This week sucks. Here's to hoping next week's better. I guess it's better to get rid of the surplus really terrible weeks before school starts.

But yeah, staying up until 3:30 trying to get something to work, thinking that it worked, and then realizing it didn't work after all. ;_; And more working... and ughhh~ Those add-ons are such a pain. ;_; What happened to cutting back on them? Show this. Add this. Too much checking, too much lag. T_T And some of these event handlers are so stupid. -_-

I feel like I'm in panic mode.

Add the fact that I was supposed to pick up someone, but the person wasn't there. And someone got mad at me... because, I guess I misheard... even though the other person was informed that I'd be there.... AHHH

Vague is good.

Cramps are the worst. *wince*

(TToTT)

Edit: What?! The Crayon Shin-chan manga-ka is missing?! o_O

Federer lost to Del Potro. o__o And of course, I missed the actual match due to work. ;_; Ah well, congrats to Clijsters too~

These last two weeks of summer are going to be really hectic. x_x I've got way too many thing on my mind. I'm probably going to fail my driving test. Umm... yeah... And I desperately need to finish this program.

http://sports.yahoo.com/ten/news;_ylt=AnIi0cRXdTKvOMjpIh__cZ44v7YF?slug=ap-usopen-federerprofanity&prov=ap&type=lgns

Aha. The world of tennis is quite entertaining. xP

Also, seriously, what on earth is wrong with this world? A Yale grad student is murdered the week of her wedding and stuffed in some wall? That's so sad and disgusting. ;_; Gosh, I wish it had just turned out to be some last minute wedding jitters. I hope her family and fiance are okay.

Feels like it's going to rain. :o

Tsubasa's ending. Now, just maybe, they might finish up X. >_>;

Eh, did anyone else watch women's semifinals last night? :x

But I seriously need to vent before I explode.

FUCK THIS.

Who knew fucking learning how to drive would be so shitty.

I guess it shouldn't be a big deal. I don't think we, as teacher and student, really click. When I drive around with my dad, I feel fine. I think I can finally drive the effing car without feeling like I'm about to run into something every 5 seconds. HOWEVER, driving with this instructor makes me feel like crap. I get so fucking nervous whenever I'm in his car. I think he's good at reacting to things, when he isn't looking down at some planner or his cell phone (which, I guess, luckily, is most of the time), so I feel safe.

I guess he's also more strict now since I'm supposed to be taking this fucking test soon. But man, I'm so confused. It's almost like he tells me one thing one time and tells me something completely different the other time. Every time, I feel like he just scolds me. Is this really how one should go about making an idiot of a student actually feel comfortable on the road? I don't know. I suck. I'm too effing nervous all the time. So much undue stress!

I don't think he's trying to say different things. He's just... epic fail at describing things. Doesn't help when you're saying slow down but turn the wheel faster... in Chinese. Like the way he says it, it almost feels like he wants me to speed up. Common sense or not; in situations like this, I have a tendency to stick to whatever the guy says. Like a robot. Like that fucking turn he basically made for me the first time I went driving. The guy behind us honked. >_>; Then here I am, about to stop to wait for an effing pedestrian, but shtt, he utters a comment and it sounds like he wants me to keep on moving. >_>; Don't turn too slow. Oh, now you're turning too fast.

I don't know. It's fucking all about judgment call.

Fucking obscure side streets that he says turn into... Seriously, driveways vs those obscure side streets look the same on the road. Granted, I'm not used to driving around there, so it's harder to react. -.- So he gets mad at me for not slowing down, when I had originally no intention of turning because I fucking couldn't even tell that was a side street.

DAMN IT.

My dad says my turns are too sharp, so I guess I overcompensated. Angie -1. Blah blah blah you did it wrong. You FAIL. My dad says I drive too much to the right. I overcompensate again. You FAIL. Shit. I'm an idiot.

I could just feel tears welling up in my eyes as I drove. That's probably a really horrible safety hazard. I dunno. At this point, it's not like he's gotten any meaner. I mean, he waved to me at some point.

I feel like an errand girl though.

My parents are saying maybe I should switch. Well, it was your fucking fault for finding me such a teacher. >_>; And in my indecision, I just can't find the "heart" to allow them to switch. Even if I'm about to die of stress, I fucking have the hardest time getting out of shit I got myself into. It's almost like I'm too fucking prideful or something. Shit.

Or maybe I feel like I'll end up feeling guilty that the person lost a job. >_>; Of course, this is all at my expense.

I just think he should be mindful of the way he points out my fucking mistakes. It almost sounds demeaning.

Oh the irony. He got himself a non-Chinese student. You can tell he's being a lot more courteous to her. Is it just because I seem like a fucking pushover?

Damnit. I can't really do anything, 'cause I fucking don't have the courage to say anything to his face. Stupid pseudo teachers that I have no respect for. ;_;

I'M SO MAD.

The world sucks. People are just... ughhh...


I FAIL I FAIL I FAIL I FAIL I FAIL. WOOOOOOOOOT.

Edit: Maybe I should count the number of explicatives I used. New record? Due to fucking stress and being in a shitty mood.

Edits 2 and 3: I was so nervous my neck now hurts from being so stiff. >_>; And uhh... One of my junior high friends mentioned how his sister didn't curse unless she was angry. I think, up until maybe sophomore/junior year of high school, I never did. Then stress started accumulating exponentially, and you know, saying oh shit or crap or w/e actually really helps you release stress, IMO (get rid of the anger). I feel there's no need to randomly insert explicatives into every sentence (which seems to have become rather commonplace), but meh, it's not like I was ever too sensitive about people using those words. The only time I become overly sensitive about it is when they're directed directly at me.

That girl said fuck you to my face during prefrosh weekend. I cried. So freaking much.

新しい会長はメイド様は、かわいい〜〜！

今日は,９月１１日だ。だからタッキー&翼の7周年おめでとう！

I think I started dedicating entries to Takki and Tsubasa's anniversarys since their 4th one? Congrats on getting so far! I hope they gain more popularity in the future and perform together more often. It's been so long since I first got into TxT fandom (and subsequently J/Kpop). They debuted a year after the Sept. 11 attacks, and dedicated a song to that occasion. Rather than looking back at a sorrowful past, I hope to look forward to a brighter future. n_n



ごめんなさい〜〜（＞o＜）昨晩は、ポストを書かなかった。

I wanted to post this entry yesterday night (when it was actually the 11th in Japan), but I fell asleep by my laptop. I hope it'll do, even though it's "a day late."

今日の朝は、うんてんした。好きじゃない。先生はつれない。ストレスをかんじている,そしてよくなく。

I'm kind of effing pissed off at how things are going. I'm already nervous as it is. Sometimes, his statement are confusing and seemingly contradictory. I hate the tone that my driving instructor uses sometimes. I can just feel my blood boiling. >_>; I feel less inclined to want to practice driving and more insecure. Gosh damnit.

朝は、ほんとうによくない。友と、私のこうこうへ行った。ひるに行った。だから時間があらない、でも先生たちに話した。ながい時がすぎた。だから、こうこうのセクレタリーは、私たちにどなった。

We were technically only allowed to stay during the 30 minute lunch period (I "drove" to school after lessons). Unfortunately, there were just way too many teachers I wanted to see. One wasn't in. I hope none of the science teachers waited for us. Some people kept us longer than I would have liked (there was no way we could get through my list of teachers in 30 minutes if we spent 5 minutes talking to each). I ended up going to the science teachers after class had started. They kept us for a bit. lol. My AP US teacher now has his own stand-up poster courtesy of publications. On one side of the room is his standing figure. On the other is... Obama. He's a Republican BTW. We had some interesting conversations. xP (ehh... about me bombing my physics final and the whatnot)... Anywho, since we stayed late, the secretary got mad at us again. So I guess I wouldn't call that "yelling." She just told us off in an intimidating tone.

I kind of felt sick afterwards. Seriously. I had two rather unpleasant encounters today. First that crappy driving lesson... then... ;_; Is it really necessary to get mad at someone who came to visit you?

あとで、友だちとボーリングした。とても楽しかった。

I went bowling with some high school friends. I actually hit a few strikes. xP I still suck~ Denvin was amazing. o__o

BJ‘sにパスタをたべた。

Then I had BJs. Fetticini alfredo? (sp?). I spent too much money on food. ;_; I had Mexican food for lunch.

Maybe it's genetic. My mom really sucks at driving too. She also has no sense of direction; it's almost incredible how she can get totally lost from making a single turn. x_x

みんな、元気？

There were a lot of things I had no idea how to write in Japanese, so I went back and added English text. lol...

今日は,９月１１日だ。だからタッキー&翼の7周年おめでとう！

Today was "virtually" a bad day. No, nothing happened. Sort of. I woke up from this really scary dream where I ended up crying because my supervisor got mad at me. D: I can't stand disappointing people. >_>; Seriously, the only 2 reasons for visiting my high school are 1) my robotics advisor made a comment last time I visited, saying he thought I'd never come back (since I go to school so close by, but I hadn't gone to see my high school teachers for more than 2/3 of a year) - ehh now I feel obligated to visit ... and 2) I told my Spanish teacher I'd visit before school started. BUT, school started last week (for them), and I get this Friday and the Friday before school starts off work. I called to see if I could visit (I really don't think any of the teachers would ever mind), but I got a curt "NO" from the school secretary. ;_; No explanation; just no. Wait a few seconds and then she tells me to e-mail the vice principal, since they're busy with some pancake breakfast. Ughh... Dude, talking to the secretary always scares me to no end. >50% of the time, I end up crying. I hate putting up with that. ;_; AHHH.

*sigh* And once I do get my driver's license, is there really no way to change the photo on it? x_x I was half dead when they took that permit photo. Not cool.

日本語を話すことはむずかしいです。でも今月は、毎日日本語のブログポストを書きます。

昨晩は、ジャッキーと話しました。ジャッキーのたんじょうびは、らいしゅうですね？ ラーブー＜３

今年のふゆは,日本にいきたいですが、やすみは、ほんとうにいそがしいです。東方神起を見ますかな〜

('scuse the fact that I can't remember how to make anything casual :x corrections would be nice )

Apple press conference was expectedly underwhelming? lol... So much for a special 999. >_> Not much else going on.

Time sure flies. I kind of miss spending 17 hours every summer day working on random layouts and this's and that's. Sure, I "dabbled" in PHP, but... gosh, aside from barely comprehending random tutorials on the web, I never got too far. I think it'd be different if I started now. *sigh*

I feel like revamping White-Reflections.Com. :x I've neglected it ever since @#$%)(RegisterFly ate my Shiroi-Kaisou domain name. D: Arghh! And I still have that Winter 2007 sign set as the index page. Ahahaha. Oh dear. :x

People more or less stopped joining my Ayumu x Eyes FL, and what with my busy schedule, it was removed from the TAFL network (along with my Mana FL, but... that fanlisting had what? 6 members? x_x). At least people occasionally join the Spiral FL. Ever since Toma starred in Hana-Kimi, his FL's been getting a lot of new members. <3 Same goes for the occasional Jaejoong fan... and Ya-Ya-yah fan too... (but now that they're disbanded...).

I'm hosting some random domains right now. I also think it's convenient to use the server space to store random school files, but otherwise, I'm spending $8/month for something I hardly use. It just seems like such a pity.

So, surprisingly, my friends made quite a few FB status messages about Jaebum. :o I had no idea how popular they were getting. Watching clips from the airport is making me depressed. I've never taken part in any fan projects. I feel like I should start doing that sometime. I mean, as I've said countless times... I would be nowhere without fandom. >.<

I hope he's okay. I hope he'll be able to rebuild his career, somehow. All the best, yo!

----

So my timecard from last week was messed up. Ugh. System issues? So my supervisor filled in a paper one for me, but umm... only accounted for 24/32 hours. No biggie. I mean, that system issue tormented me for half of last Friday. I tried getting in contact with everyone, and when I finally got a response from the help desk, they said they'd take care of it, but they didn't. >_>; *shrug*

----

Apple conference tomorrow!

----

I've got way too many things to do~ so why can't I get started on any of them?

Edit: whoas to LJ formatting. o_O

Korean idol industry and crazy antis are just downright rotten. D: What on earth?! And I thought Johnny was bad. o__o. I wonder if this is where someone should interject "shit happens". After reading heartenseoul's LJ post, I stared at the 2PM Soompi thread. D: My gosh. I mean, first, you have somewhat overzealous stalker fangirls. I guess those are... okay. Then you have idol companies who work these people so much and for so little pay until they're hospitalized (though, I don't think these people understand what they're really getting themselves into when they first join; it's different when a group you think is about to debut ends up being disbanded). Then you have the antis who threaten people and send drinks containing super glue. wtf. Seriously man.

So the guy said a few harsh words about Korea while he was a trainee, and now that someone discovers his MySpace entry from 4 years ago (scary how social networks work...; meh, he's at fault for posting something like that, even though everyone should be entitled to his/her opinion ehh...), he's being threatened to no ends. D: Leave the group. Kill himself?! WHAT? O_O ...

And 2PM was just really getting started, no? Although I don't listen to them... but still!

That said, I also just finished reading Marmalade Boy. It was pretty good, but I hated that brother/sister forbidden love arc. Get over it, and stop lying to yourself. I don't know. Marriage laws are really sad, IMO. That arc dragged on forever. -_-

Yep, now to actually get some work done.

Hwaiting! I still love all my favorite idols. It's just that there's something really wrong with the way a lot of people think.

Has anyone read Marmalade Boy? It's so old~~ but after reading Spicy Pink, I feel like I should read that. :o

Went driving with my dad this morning. I took the surface streets to school, and then drove back. Round trip time: 1 hr. x_x

I have not been following JE fandom since I went to the JE shop in Harajuku last summer. :x Maybe I lost interest because Yax3 disbanded. I liked the early '00s JE style better. What happened to all of my pretty bishounen? They're too muscular! I mean, look at '05 ish Pi and then look at him after Kurosagi! Tsu-chan also changed his hairstyle for the worst, and it hasn't gotten much better since then. Doesn't help that JE guys can't really sing (even if I felt bad that Pi had that horribly embarrasing lip synching mishap when he was singing Daite Senorita).

I mean, at least you had Shokura and Yax3 before. Variety shows were probably the highlight of JE fandom for me. Then Yax3 left. Actually, I liked it back in the days of Jimmy Mackey.

*sigh*

Korean fandom is just peachy. Yesung's a pretty good singer. I don't think SuJu is nearly as strong as TVXQ in terms of ability to actually sing well. They're more suited for variety shows, and they're great at them. xP But... aside from Doushite, I still don't really like many of TVXQ's Japanese releases. @_@

Actually, my initial reason for posting was to complain about my small hands. I haven't touched a piano in a few months, and oh my goodness, I was straining to reach octaves. D: Noooo! T_T

I am addicted to SuJu guest appearances right now.

I've been meaning to find a copy of the Show Me Your Love poster for a long time now. If only it could still be in print. x_x

I had this really awesome dream with Super Junior and uhh... Evan! (except, for some reason, Evan went to my junior high instead of my high school, and she was wearing a very un-Evan-like frilly outfit xD). I think I mostly just noticed Heechul. Maybe Eeteuk. Hmm... x_x Actually, I might've noticed Kangin, buut... uhh... it was kind of like I was on a variety show, except it wasn't one.

Hmm... I wonder how often these people goof off. xD So cute!

Then my dad woke me up at 7. T_T;; Bye-bye beautiful dream. ;_;

And I spent a little more than 2 hours driving + refueling the car. x_x

I haven't had a dream like that in a looong time. Gone are the days of dreaming about Takki x Tsubasa rabu. LOL.

Oh fandom, where would I be without you? <3

Edit: I want to get my ears pierced. >.< My aunt gave me this nice set of earrings a few years ago, but I couldn't wear them. Lately, I've been staring at DBSK/SuJu piercings~ and oh gosh, if only I could get over the pain T_T;;;

So pretty *o*

I feel hungry. *stomach grumble*

It's 3 AM. I don't think I'll be falling asleep any time soon. D:

I tried finishing up Why Why Love, but I just can't get through the last 2 episodes. I finally managed to finish episode 13. I think it would've been better to end there. >_>;

If some disease is not the main focus of the series, it shouldn't randomly be injected into it, especially at the conclusion. >.< It's almost frustrating~ Poor Huo Yan's kaa-san died. Now Huo Da's freaking out about dying. >_>; Then nii-sama comes to the rescue and offers to donate his whatever it was, despite having a weak heart. LOL. We're led to think it ended badly, but...

It also doesn't help that I read the spoilers.

Last Christmas was kind of like that, except the latter half of the plot was devoted to disease-stricken Yuki. That was good. Yada Akiko and Yuji Oda were great on screen~

I just like to know what I'm getting myself into before I start a series. Obviously, 1 Litre of Tears was going to be heart-wrenchingly sad. Taiyou no Uta... if only she didn't die. D: Oh gosh~ Who was the actress? :o

Now I'm watching more random episode of EHB. Ahh~~ Siwon does look so much like a horse. I'm not sure why I like Leeteuk. I loved how he was able to change his hair style to represent err... pop icon hairstyles of the '80's and '90's. So true! xD Heechul hardly participates. >_>;

Tonight was the first time I've had a late night phone conversation since the end of high school. :o Fun stuff. xP

Ohhh, and while Leeteuk was spinning around, they played the Sailor Moon theme! (I wonder what it sounds like in Korean). I'm still kind of in awe at the fact that most SuJu members are older than TVXQ members. Seems like TVXQ has the more mature image. :o Anywho, older guys are pretty fun to hang out with. Oppa~~ I'm glad they're okay after that accident 2 years ago, even if I wasn't able to see them at HB.

Hwaiting!



(eh, I can still smell the smoke)

Oudin's amazing. :o

Why are there THSK purikuras?! D:

I've been awake for <5 hours today. Woke up at 10 for driving lessons. Went to sleep at 2 'cause I was just really really bored. -.- Woke up at around 8. My goodness.

Weekends are just a little upsetting.

Noda LA is going to be huge! And the first one's opening in December~~ A day before Shoon's birthday? Maybe I really will go. I think that I'll be reading the entire series once it ends. I never did read the first 70 or so chapters (the LA should've followed them pretty closely though).

I read Amai Kamiato~ this manga-ka's good!

The ending was a bit too open-ended, but I really enjoyed it!

There are a lot of consistently great shoujo manga-ka out there. Wonder why they're not as well known as... CLAMP, etc.
