I spent a coupon on smoothies today at Jamba Juice. The cashier was very nice. I liked him. He was enthusiastic and very good for business. xD I got my first punch card....If I buy 4 more smoothies, I get a 7th one for free!! (Or so it says...)
That's about the extent of my good day... oh, and I got a table for Mangaka club. But there's a catch, and I have to figure it out (thanks to co-pres's help).
Now, what went wrong? I lost my ID, again. I also have a playing quiz tomorrow in Orchestra, but I didn't bring home my viola to practice (although the orchestra room was open late, AND the piano room; the one day I choose not to bring my viola is the day the school decides to open up some practice areas...Great.)
My ID is my ticket into the building, and my meal ticket (at least, for free food). I have to cough up $5 for a new one, if I don't find it. I think it's somewhere in the theater...Or in the dance studio. Or little theater. We had to talk about cyber-bullying and posting stuff on social networks...I was drawing blades.
Ummm...UGH. I'll just go to sleep; I need it.
I am 1¢ richer today (I was $10 richer, for about 15 minutes; then I found the owner and returned the money--see? There are good people in the world).
I have to stay late for the play...*SOB*

This World of Superficialities
Phony.
That's Holden's favourite word. Oh, and we're reading The Catcher in the Rye in class now, by the way. You know, that book I had to keep out becuz we were SUPPOSED to read it in class, but we decided to read The Crucible and The Road instead and then it was overdue and when I had to return it I knew that as soon as I returned it we'd suddenly decide to read it in class??? Yeah, well, that book.
Holden is the main character, and to him the schools he attended and the people in them are all phony. They aren't real, or at least they aren't what they pretend to be. We talked about how our current ambitions and goals may not be entirely "ours." Like, how many of our dreams and goals are actually made up by us, and how many of them were pushed upon us by others, like our parents or role models.
I was thinking along the ride home when SO said I had better join more clubs than my current ones; and "not fun ones," no. Things where I volunteer and stuff like that. Now, I have no problem volunteering, but I didn't like how SO described other clubs activities I might consider participating in as "not fun.' I told them "There's no reason if it's not fun." Which is true. I have like 7 hours of school, and clubs are my only escape. I would like my relaxation to be FUN.
Then SO went on to say that I should join things (my bro is in the theater/drama production club-thing) that'll "just look good on my [college] résumé." Really? That was when I started thinking thoughts about things being phony. I mean, everything we do is fake, phony. When you look at it, if you don't do things truly for yourself, it's not true or real. Why do we all get educated? Sure, it'll be better for us, or so they say, but that is a goal and expectation set for us by others. That's why there's a law that all adolescents under 17 (and over a certain age) must attend school.
But what if we don't want to? Even if it's a good idea (note, education is teaching us what we assume is true, what we are taught is true), it may not be our idea initially to attend school. And college. EVERYTHING WE DO IS FOR COLLEGE. What if I don't wanna got o college? I mean, really, that's just something my parents want from me, and although I appreciate it, I need to admit that it's not necessarily my dream. I didn't even consider college at all when I thought about my future life back when I was younger. If I did, I wanted to be a chemist, just because my foolish, childhood generalization of a chemist was you poured liquids together (in cool beakers) and made them explode.
We learn things in school so we'll get good grades to get into good colleges, but that's phony then, isn't it? Because we aren't being ourselves or displaying our true intentions. A lot of extracurricular activities are done for the sake of scholarships and dressing up our résumés. I am sick of it, really, but the reality of it is that this is the world we live in. Almost everything we do has an ulterior motive, and because of that almost everything we do is phony.
Maybe...maybe I don't want to go to college. At least not right now.
...
On a completely unrelated note, I found a penny today. It is in my shoelaces. I am 1¢ richer.

First Day of School!! (Not Really)
Yeah, (or, like ol' dude says, "yeh") today was the first day of the first full week of school in a long time. Four-day weekends have pros and cons for me: the time off is great, but I don't do anything really, and as a result I get bored and sluggish.
Thank you, Sam, for trying to teach me things with my viola. I disagree; you play pretty well, especially for someone who played violin first; that must have been confusing since I you have an E string and I don't.
I found 6¢ on the floor after school today; yaaay! (6¢ richer)
[I also saw a QUARTER on the floor upon my entrance into the building, but there were people behind me; I couldn't pick it up. And surely enough it was gone when I looked for it on my way to 3rd period.]
[Edit: I don't know what happened, but apparently I had some miscalculation along the way; I have accumulated more change than I thought; I'll update my change counter]
Nothing much to report; I swear, I'm going to learn and master all these cool and difficult glowstick tricks, and I won't be able to do a decent Halo. *tears*
NO IT IS NOT A SQUIRREL!!!
Does "Fakkal" or "Fackal" or "Fakkhal" or "Fackhal" mean anything??? (Random word-slash-name popped into my head earlier; too lazy and tired to look it up thoroughly.

I'm So Messed Up
Ok, so I am normally very conflicted on the inside, and I was just about to explode earlier today, and in order to release that energy, I wrote a poem, and then a length of free writing which I thought I'd reformat into a poem, but I'm not so sure. I think I like it as a form of venting; but I think it'll be more versatile and acceptable as a poem, so I don't know...
I started second-guessing my decision to put it out here on the 'net; but at first I really didn't care...what's the damage, anyway?
"What you put on the internet
you can never take back
But I don't care
I'm not talking about killing Presidents
And I really am this angry
Sometimes."
Yeah; but I am not sure how I'd get it on here; I'd put it under "Narratives" or I could just post it. Or link to it. I'll deal with it tomorrow. Here's the first poem:
"Inside of Me" by TrinnBloom ©2011
Inside of me
Sorry if it's hard to read or if you can't read it at all. I liked that font and typed it in a word processor first. Looking back on what I'd written, I realized--or rather, remembered--that this mixed-up-ness and conflict of feelings and pain of being human was part of being human, at least in this world.
I'm just one of 7 billion of us, and we're all the same inside. Which means that everyone is just as messed up as I am. I think that acknowledging the angry, confused, distressed, torn side of me is a step toward knowing that there are others like me, although that is something I forget (I'm sure we all do).
I think understanding yourself brings you closer to understanding all humans.
You know, I am also a spoiled, selfish, ungrateful brat. (Random acknowledgement of faults)

Inside of me
There is a
Monster who
rages
And wants to
play
I want
To release it
Let it
rampage through the world
But the
stupid shackles of society
Stop me
What do I
care
Why must I be
perfect
Act perfect
Behave
perfect
I’m
so angry
So incredibly
pissed off right now
I honestly
don’t
give a crap
About the
world right now
Its
preferences and rules
That state I
cannot
Should not
And will not
Release this
monster

Thanksgiving Part III
The Thanksgiving Feast lasts at least 3 days here...
LEFTOVERS FOR DINNER!!!
I had some really deep or funny thing I said earlier today to write down here, but I forgot...Meh.
Oh! Right! I painted for the first time (in Photoshop) last night/this morning!!! I'll post it on my art blog (finally; first post since...September?)

ThanksGiving Day~!
Ever just stop and realize how wonderful and magical music is? I'm listening to Vitamin String Quartet, uploading music, and trying to figure out how to get music onto this blog. VSQ (which does indeed sound like a narcotic) is awesomme...
"Life in Technicolor" is nice as well...I wanted to write a story about an orchestra...Never got to it; but I never do. xD
...
I actually had another thing to spaz about here, but I forgot--Oh! Another music thing of today: we were watching videos of talented groups in "The Sing-Off"; and one of the guys in one of the groups would be a great model for a character.
[*spazzes; time passes*]
OK. I finished writing those blog posts for English. Now what?...
OH RIGHT. I lost my sports watch somewhere between my 4th and 5th period; how I can't find it I don't know; people are dumb or mean and don't turn in lost items. I did, however, find my brother's scarf.
Random Question: If so many people in the world (or even in America) have such amazing singing abilities, why do we only promote bad ones? I mean, that's an overgeneralization, and I know it. But a lot of the "stars" these days are either quickly losing talent, or they're just pretty faces [aka no talent at all]. I'm trying to figure out if I'm for or against TV making its actors sing...> . > If they can act, let them act. Those who can and want to sing, have them sing. Stop making people sing so much (I'm waiting for Jason Earles's debut to come out; he's the only one left.)
Today is Thankgiving; Turkey Day; Black Friday Eve. Whatever you call it, it's here. I get to eat AGAIN, but let's not forget the cliché but totally traditional and reasonable Giving of Thanks. I mean, when we have a big family feast, I don't really like gathering around and listening to grace, but that's a problem right there. I'm so relatively estranged from my family, due to my quietness, shyness, and weird mindset and humor. I usually sit somewhere quietly and observe...
Whoops. I should really NOT do that. I shouldn't be so soft; I'll get squished. But onto being thankful; I think one reason why not a lot of people actually realize what they should be thankful for and why is because in grade school they kind of drill it into you. "Being thankful" was just something to write poems and essays about. You just thought of your house and your family and your pets and..I don't know, Jewel Osco or something. But that was to fill up paper. Why were you thankful?

[Random] Journal Entry XII
Hmmm...I haven't been on here for a while, but that's probably becuz I haz nothing to talk about. But checking on my blog today, I remembered something that keeps coming to mind.
Basically, I love how most of my pageviews are coming from Russia. Methinks somehow someone linked to my blog from their site, because I cannot see how these sites relate to my blog. WTBH does ".tk" stand for, anyway??? And the sites are still in English...
I know ".us" is for the United States. And ".jp" is for Japan... ".uk" is for the United Kingdom... But I hazn't the slightest idea what tk is for...in RUSSIA.
You know, I have more "Random Journal Entries" than any other kind of post...probably 'cuz I think everything I say is random....I'm aiming for a series!!! ^ω^
....
WOW. SO's Special Characters section is EPIC.
Listening to: "Through the Fire and Flames" by DragonForce (EPICOSITY OF SONG DOEZ NOT COMPUTE!!!!)
---OMFGG THIS GUY'S PLAYING THE SONG ON EXPERT PERFECTLY!!!!! As Midori!!! XDDD
(Link to awesommeness) (For the record, there are several awesomme people out there who have made vids of their epicness; Google them...)
O ∆ O *SCREAMS* OMFGG LEGO GUITAR HERO FTW!!! (Link to awesommeness2)
This is already an AMAZZING song; now we're having a field day of it. ^υ^
PS There's also a video of a 9-year-old playing it. [Link] ¬ _¬ Hmmm...Is he actually playing, or...?
OMFGG again!! MARIO PAINT VER.!!! [MP version]
If you don't know what Mario Paint is, I suggest you A) Google it, B) ask someone who knows it, 3) Get a Super Nintendo console, or D) click the link and under the description it tells you where to download the composer (but if you don't know what it is, you won't know what's going on...)

The wings of dA (deviantArt) have--OMG WTH IS THAT?!!
Sorry. I squirreled somehow ("somehao"? Hmmm...that works.) by going back to dA or remembering something my bro suggested to me: something about the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. I Googled the term, and after getting the gist of the idea from Wikipedia, looked for more info. That was when I came across this post: link. WATCH IT!!! WATCH THE VIDEO!!!
...or I could put it here. The post has all the info, though. At around 1:20 (some say 1:19) look for a pale greenish horse-and-rider looking figure near the bottom of da vid:
Usually I'm skeptical about this kind of stuff, but first of all: it appears to be a news broadcast. They generally don't photoshop or insert content. Secondly, I went onto YouTube, and I found these videos in succession:
(original, from post) Fourth Horseman (death) Egyptian riots. Full Original Video
New Footage Horseman. Different viewpoint! Extreme close up.
Death and a Dove in Cairo Last Night
.... ¬ . ¬
Significant Other says "HELLO!! FINAL CUT PRO!!"
Gosh, has to ruin all my fun, huh? I still think it's possible that some specter was there that night. I mean, there are other videos of the same thing...why would it be on a televised newscast? Besides, I tend to believe in the supernatural, whether or not it's scary. I mean, some people also don't believe there are other forms of life out there. (There are)
You can decide. And if you have a convincing explanation of what it really is or could be, let me know, for I am amazed and could go either way. Someone said that the figure was a reflection of fire or some crap that only moved because of the camera moving. I'm sorry, but the chance that a reflection would look like a horse and a rider and glow green is unlikely. Here's the video against the Horseman possibility: link.
I mean, with the "Evidence 2" I can kinda see it, in fact, I was straining to, and I wanted to so I could say, "Yeah, it was just _______". But...no, the explanation is kinda sketchy...Just like government explanations of aliens and UFOs. They can't hide the truth of London forever.
Sorry if it's obviously fake and I seem really gullible to you people. I won't lie or deny it: I am on the easily-believing side. I still can't figure out if and how many of my classmate-friends are lying to me. xD
Right, that's enough about harbringers--oops, harbingers (I like "bringers" better) of doom. I started this post about me being inspired by deviantArt. There are so many good artists on there, I kinda wish I had an account there, but I feel like there are also many thieves out there who can and do take others' work, which makes me sad. BUT! dA has so much awesomeness, it makes me strive to become better at what I draw, as well as broaden my horizons as far as my subjects, style and media are concerned. (I only draw people.
And my style has changed over the last year, at that.)
However, as much as dA inspires me, it also depresses me because I often believe I'll never become that great. And I won't, as things are now. If I keep blogging and putting off work and never actually drawing anything.
*Sigh* There's always va-ca.
Oh, yeah, at the beginning of the post, I was gonna say "The wings of dA (deviantArt) have fanned the flames of my artistic inspiration." or something.
OOO! I just got hooked on this project this deviant's working on; their handle is *ceal-sakura-ai and their OC's are part of this thing called CEAL. I love their style!!!~
Oops. Free publicity/advertising. O well. If they have banners, I'll put it with my Parashi. ^ω^
--Natch.
PS I just got hooked on all that occult stuff too, so now I'm watching vids about ghost horses everywhere...Japan looks sketchy, tho.

My Watch is "Losing Time"
OK, so a few days ago I was talking to Significant Other about watches and winding them up back then, and they eventually told me that there's a difference between [good] watches running out of time and stopping and a [bad] watch losing time and slowing down. After the second explanation, I finally got it. xD
Then, ironically, the next day or whatever (I think we talked Sunday, then I had 'scuela Monday) I looked at my watch after I came down from my room at around ten to 7, and my watch read five to 12. '¬ . ¬
Yep, my watch was definitely "losing time". I reset it, but then today it said it was...5:30-ish when it was really around 6:30. Nooooo~! I just got it like, this past summer. It can't stop working now!! It was relatively expensive!
So...um. Today I had an epic fall, and therefore an epic fail. I was going up the stairs at school to get to my locker, and on the second-to-last step, as I raised my foot to climb the final step, I misplaced my foot and tripped. (...not "misplaced" in the lost sense; I put it down wrong) I caught myself, but it wasn't as simple as that, oh no; TrinnBloom does not to simple. As I fell, my light backpack swung up and over my head, slinging my already busted water-holding-coffee-cup up, over, and against the glass window/wall.
EPIC. FAIL.
But I had a good laugh out of it; I was just worried about whether or not my cup busted even further. ^-^
Today I'm 1¢ richer!
Oh, in English, this one guy was making some funny statements. After Mr. M reminded another student that "Everyday is Saturday in the summer," he loudly stated (jokingly, I believz), "Everyday is Sunday if you dedicate yourself to the Path of the Lord!"
LOL. I saw that coming, after he said "Sunday" I knew it was gonna be church-related. Later, after this girl said you can always transfer schools, he said:
"Even Darth Vader transferred at the end."
Hahaha...this guy's brilliant, he really is. I think he's intelligent and funny. His only flaw (I see so far) is his tendency to blurt out something related to minorities...I mean, it comes up a lot in class, but about 80% of what he says contains "minority/ies". ¬ . ¬

[Random] Journal Entry XI
Today I saw holiday decorations on a house while walking home.
Christmas decorations.
It is November 14th.
I feel like people are rushing things like the holidays. Stores have a somewhat acceptable excuse, having to get out merchandise for the public to purchase and whatnot, but commercializing the holidays so much only makes things worse. We hurry to get our shopping and decorations and planning done, but once we do that, it’s all over. We rush through the preparations so quickly, and when that special occasion gets here, it only lasts a day or so. Why rush?
I’m fine with waiting for Christmas, actually. It can take its time. Each passing of Christmas marks the passing of another year. This’ll be my fifteenth time witnessing the holiday season. Everything I don’t want to passes by so quickly. But things are only fast in memory. When you’re living them it drags by slowly, but when you’re past it and look back, it seems like it lasted only a second. Then you wish that it had lasted longer. This is why we need to cherish things and live in the moment...because it’s over all too soon.

Pacman and "Ascot"
"He was wearing a sombrero. ... JUST a sombrero."
OK, first up, I missed 11:11(:11) by a minute, sadly enough. And I kept waking up randomly that morning too. *tears*
There's always December of next year!!! xD
Aside from that, I went to my cousin's third birthday party yesterday, and it was at Chuck E. Cheese. I went for the pizza. Seriously. I was given a choice on whether or not I wanted to attend. But we also went to see the Pacquiao fight later that night. 
Never. Again. I felt so outta place there...I was surrounded by little people...and being bullied by eight-year-old Cambodian twins... They wanted my tokens...
Afterwards, we killed about 4 hours at my aunt's house then watched Pacman claim another victory. Although it wasn't as extreme as the Shane Mosley fight (when Manny Pacquiao was pushed down, then beat the crap outta Mosley as revenge), but it was good during the...8-12 rounds??? The first part was a lot of fake-outs and misses, so I liked the end better.
LOL. HBO got an interview with Juan Manuel Marquez in the dressing room or something, and to us (the viewers) it looked like Marquez was wearing a sombrero. JUST a sombrero. xD
RANDOM: While watching the Pacquiao-Marquez fight, I started imagining up characters for this one faux-story...and it consisted of a teenage girl boxer.
This morning I was gonna start chara designs for this other faux-story, and I got distracted because I didn't know how to tie this one guy's...thing, and I had no idea what the thing was called. So I went all Google, and got even further distracted. I decided ol' dudE wore an ascot (« link to a commercial site) when he was younger.
I found all sorts of cool pictures, including some aviator goggles. I also came across pictures of the Ascot race somewhere in UK. All I have to say is: don't mess with the ladies and their hats.
MAN. I knew about English women often wearing hats, especially on special occasions, but these were just WOW. So fancy and eye-catching. And their dresses were flamboyant as well. Here are some pics off of Google Images:
 |
| CHEESE!! |
 |
| Fancy hats: now for men!! |
Man, seriously. Why can't we wear such outlandish items here in the US? And in case anyone (anyone who actually reads this post) might take offense at what I say, first of all, too bad, and second, I have no issue with the UK and their fashions. In fact, I kinda want a crazy/eye-catching hat too. Except here I'd be ostracized and thrown into a crazyhouse for that...or just ostracized.
Yep, I was just expressing the normal human reaction given when faced with a new or alien idea or concept. My apologies for being human.
...OH YEAH! I found 17¢ in my aunt's car's trunk, and a quarter on the floor somewhere.
Yesterday I was 42¢ richer.
I feel like I was planning on blogging about something else, but I forget what...
--OMG MUFFINS FOR BREAKFAST!!!

First Snow of the Season--November
OMG It's snowing!!...
Or, it was, anyway. *SOB* So cold, so very, very cold...And wet. See, it's November, so I ain't ready for the snow yet. It's too early for snow, and it was too cold for November, when yesterday it was a high of 50-something and today it's 39º at the warmest. If it's gonna snow AND be cold, it needs to snow here and there earlier and/or gradually get colder to get to such a point. Man, you'd think that given my location I'd be used to it by now...but nope. I was like someone from the west coast who just came to the northern states and witnessed snow for the first time...painfully underdressed. xD
TOMORROW IS A VERY SPECIAL DAY INDEED!! 11/11/11!!! Everyone go do something special for no particular reason, and make a wish or resolution @ 11:11[:11]!!! Imma wake up [relatively] early just for this momentous occasion, and I need to sync my watch to something...my computer has to be right, right?
Library fees are too dang high, darn it. I forgot a book's due date, and it was maybe 5 days after, but I have school and didn't have time, so it was 8 days late today. You know how much I had to pay?
Guess...
Guess...
Are you sure?
OK. I had to pay...
[wait for it...]
$1.60
TT^TT That's not a lot, money-wise, but by LIBRARY standards, that's a ton of cash I paid for a book. They doubled the price per day for a book, so instead of 10¢ I had to pay 20¢.
∞¢£¶™!!!
I want 2-3 things tonight:
- ice cream
- popcorn--
- while watching movie(s)
Makes me wish I had taken out some movies when I was at the library paying $1.60 for a single book.
Ehehehe...
I also have to read a chapter in history and want to read Gakuen Alice.

I'm Free and Need Sleep. ^^
Yosh!! I'm done with school for da week, I'm running on one hour of sleep, and I'm still in a fantasmic mood!!
--That reminds me, I made up a word from different words...what was it? "Spectacular"+"Spontaneous"+"Fantastic"+ "Fantasmic"...? "Spontasmic"? Maybe...meh.
*WTF WHY IS EPSON SCAN ACTING SO RETARDED?!!?!* LOAD, D@Mµ YOU.
*Ahem* While we're waiting for that impossible program to start up, allow me to talk about my day...Mainly, all was normal, except I had this huge project due today, and I had the whole quarter to do it and I started yesterday. I was up in bed til 4 am trying to finish the thing. I was using good paper too. And I still didn't finish in time, so I said "what the heck" and went to sleep. I worked on it in the car on the way to school, and in division, because we had long division today, and I was lucky. I finished there and turned it in to Mr. M, who said "cool" when he saw it...(Little does he know I just did it in under 24 hours...In my opinion, I should be given a little leeway since I did such a large-scale project in a day.)
Not all that was bad; I got to draw a lot of things in a hurry, which from my point of view is very similar to what mangaka have to do. Also, I'm proud of the horse I drew, as well as the warship, the main character's lover, and the main character as a sailor. I think that by speed-drawing I bettered my artistic skills a little.
[BTW: the project was for lit.; "Curse of the Blue Tattoo."]

*Blog First, Title Later*
Woo-hoo!! My English blog hit 100 pageviews today!! Yaaay~!
Sorry. I'm in a bit of a...umm...jumble? Tizzy? Whatever. I'm excited for no reason and scared for a good reason, a reason that also applies to why I should NOT be blogging right now...
But I wanted to say some stuff, altho at the moment it all escapes me...
Right; one thing is: I conveniently found a dime today after school. Yay, I'm 10¢ richer!!
O, yeah. In chem, Mr. B said something really funny: "'Different flavor'? There's only one flavor, and it's Sugary Goodness[!]". xD He's so weird...
And also in science, this guy told all these lame jokes, and the only one that was funny was the last one. I'll share it here to have a digital copy, but I'm debating if I want to put the swear/curse/cusswords in it...I guess I might; just because I'm quoting someone.
Here's how it went:
I don't have much else to report, except that I practiced tinikling today...OH! And I had more Filipino goodness, this time in the form of Mamon, or Chiffon Cake. Sooo goooooood~ I had some issues to bring up with the packaging it came in, for sport, you know, but I have things to do (like that lit project due this Wednesday--EEEEP!!), so I'll just make a note of it here and get back to you...um, probably Wednesday, b/c Imma be busy from now til then.

"What starts with 'p' and ends with 'o-r-n'? [...] POPCORN!! What are you thinking, you sick b******s?!"LOL. We all laughed so hard...All of us who heard, anyway.

Miscellaneous Thoughts in My Head
Hallo. It's rather chilly right now, but I shan't complain. I have too much going on in my head. First of all-
D@mµ. I should really, REALLY clean my glasses...Meh. Clean enough. Why the heck do eyelashes have oil? It screws up my lenses, man.
Anyway, I need to type up this paper for Spanish...just watch, Sr. Student-Teacher-Who-Has-An-Issue is gonna somehow make me read my paper, and Imma hate it. Luckily, student teachers only [typically] observe/teach for a semester...I think. I hope. I won't be able to hold on with ol' dude teaching...I greatly dislike him, and there's no cure.
*Goes to type paper; start: 5:40, end: 6:09)
Heh; what better way to get in the mood for typing Spanish papers than listening to Japanese music?! Hooray for iTunes Radio!!
Meh. I did OK. I mean, I needed GoogleTranslate and some other translator(s) to get some words, and it's slightly under half a page, but WTBH. I bet that if my friend read it, she'd burst out laughing...in that "oh-my-gosh-you're-so-pitiful" way that native speakers do. Imma just print it and be on my way....
¬ _ ¬ ; I think I belittle my mom too much...in front of my father, anyway. I feel bad. But it was weird...nvm. There was this incident a few minutes ago concerning what was for dinner since she's out and she didn't tell us what's to eat. Just...a Post-It note above the oven...with extremely vague directions. In the end, we used my dad's deductive reasoning skills to decipher the note and decide that the strange cheese/spinach lasagna was for dinner. So, it's baking right now, "until top browns ≈ 25min." See, it's a good thing we're so smark.
Today's Sunday, and that means that a new episode of "ONCE Upon a Time" is to be shown.
I can't wait!! And I'll eat it with the mysterious lasagna. I can't believe Dad didn't trust me with the food. I mean, I had to remind him that he trusted me with his fish when it was toasting or something. So, he left the task up to me. ^^
I was up till 2-something in the morning reading Gakuen Alice, and I'm hooked. I just love Mikkan and Hotaru and Natsu and Luca-pyon!!! Naru-sensei is pretty cool too. I think the most major thing that I read yesterday is that Natsu really cares about his classmates and those close to him. I read about his backstory and saw his thoughts and how he just wants to protect everything, instead of destroying it. So cute...And apparently Mikkan counts as one of his friends, and...maybe more??? He exploded in fury when the bad guys slammed Mikan against the wall and hurt her. He was all like:
Man, he was so cute...I love the kinds of characters who are typically cool and calm and reserved then they get super-pissed whenever their friends are hurt or in danger... And he's only 10. ^w^

Another cute thing was when Tsubasa, Mikkan's senpai in her Alice-type class, figured out that Luca and Natsu are kinda getting attached to Mikkan. And Natsu was all like, "Stop being so touchy-feely" whenever Tsubasa hugged Mikkan, or rather, vice versa. x3
Here're are some pages:

xD LOL. "Now I'm getting it." You see how when Tsubasa squeezes Mikkan tighter, BOTH Luca-Pyon and Natsu turn? 
Let me think...I believe he is Tsubasa Andou [Andou Tsubasa], and he's 14. I think I'll call him...either by his name, Tsubasa, or some petname or other like "Tsuba-kun"/"Tsuba-chan" or "Tsuba-nii." x3
I ♡ GAKUEN ALICE!!!!
I just took out the lasagna; and it still has to cool. > . > I don't know if I'll make it in time for ONCE Upon a Time... 
Meh. This is the only good thing about commercial breaks.
Cheer for me! Even if you don't, I will!!!

[Random-@$$ post]
OK. I'm like, über-excited because I just got to put a banner from a site/project I'm a fan of onto my blog, and I couldn't figure out how the heck to do it. But I used Blogger help, and this one user told another how to do it, and now I gotz it!!! Yay! Check out Parashi, guys!!!!
Note: I'll prob put more Parashi banners on...just because I couldn't truly choose one; they're all so nice!!!
And thank you, MasDoyok!!!
Oh, for future reference, here is how you insert a banner into your blog page:
Note: I'll prob put more Parashi banners on...just because I couldn't truly choose one; they're all so nice!!!
And thank you, MasDoyok!!!
Oh, for future reference, here is how you insert a banner into your blog page:
- In Layout, add the "HTML/JavaScript" gadget
- under content, insert <a href="siteurl"><img src="bannerurl"></a>
- siteurl=the address of site your banner links to
- bannerurl=the address of the banner/pic you want to be shown
Yay! Remember for future reference!! (Oop; repetition!!)
Awesome Pie and Words of Wisdom-ish
Most of my day today was spent on a research blog post for my American Lit class (ok, warranted; technically most of my day was spent watching tv...I think. BUT! I got up at 11, and I did my homework [reading] prior to watching, and afterward I solved a difficult math problem, so there.) That's right. A RESEARCH. BLOG [POST]. Ewww~. I didn't like it very much, but the journey, now that was something special.
AND WTH IS THIS MUSIC?!! IT SOUNDS LIKE A JAPANESE MUSICAL OR A JAPANESE VERSION OF "BEAUTY AND THE BEAST"!!!
I kinda like it. For those of you who might have the slightest idea what it is: iTunes says it's--OMG It's from "Sakura Taisen"?!!?! Awesome. I wanna watch it now...(I've read the manga...a few books).
...You know what? I feel like watching "School Rumble" now. Hehehehe....
Altho, right now I should really be practicing my viola or working on that picture for lit...but you know I'm not gonna do it until tomorrow. I should also google how to do this one math problem...
[11:30-Random Edit: OMG It's Angela!!! ~❤ "Ashita e no Brilliant Road". I luv AtsuKatsu!! (jejeje...my petname for the main band members)]
Listening to: "Invisible Tomorrow" by Puffy AmiYumi (Puffy) [IDK...iTunes Radio says it]
Currenty plotting: nothing; I'll sweat it mañana.
---LOL the current music (last song ended) fitted a scene in my head when I inserted the smiley perfectly)
Trying to finish: CotBT, I'll have a better chance of a drawing of quality if I finish the bloody book.
I want pie.
*Gets pie*
Legit. I literally have pie in front of me. Right this second. Okay, okay. It's really 3 feet to my left.
*Fetches pie.*
It's French Apple Pie or something, and it's delish. Yumyumyumyumyumyumyumyumyum!!! (In the words of Dora the Explorer's backpack) I was gonna link to the post my mum would have made for the pie, but since it is nonexistent, I'll just link to where she got the recipe: apple-licious pie of French descent.
Anyway, back to talking about my Lit post. I was really getting into it when I was doing the research--that is, looking up stuff. I mean, there were a LOT of coincidences and similar thoughts. Here's a post spazzing on about it: ummm...LINK!!
I was also feeling real profound and deep and stuff; as I blogged I wrote some deep stuff, in my opinion. I liked my statements so much, I put it on my email sig; and Imma put it here as well:
"Gods are a belief of man; if there are no men alive to believe, there are no gods to believe in."and
"If there's love, there's a will; if there's a will, there's a way."and finally
"Love is more than a feeling, it is a living thing as well as a force, and with it anything can be overcome."So yeah, I typed that into my blog post, and it was cool.

[Random] Journal Entry X
[EDIT: I accidentally forgot to post this last night; proof of my sleepiness. The actual date of this post is Friday, November 4, 2011.]
...Why is it that on regular school nights I can't ever seem to go to bed on time, and on weekends I black out at 10pm? *Sigh*...The only reason why I'm here now is because I have things I wanna say, about my day, I can'y wait 'till tomorrow.
Which reminds me...
Quote of the day: "Tomorrow is today" and "Tomorrow has finally come."
Yeah, me and my locker partner [she-who-must-not-be-named] have had this issue with our locker and its tidiness for a while now. Its organization was good, for about the first two months of school. Then all Hell broke loose and it was a mess. This entire week we've been saying "We should really clean this out" and "We should REALLY, REALLY clean out our locker," and replying in the same busy/lazy way: "Meh. We'll do it tomorrow." One of my main reasons for putting it off so long is because I have/had dance tryouts this entire week. But today I wasn't gonna try out for anything; I just attended a little lesson in dance from my friend. So, I toldIsely yesterday that we were gonna finally do it tomorroa (today, Friday). And today, whenever we met by our locker, we'd say something like "Today's the day" or "Tomorrow's finally come" or "Today is tomorrow", etc. And we did it...kinda. She wanted to ride the train with this other girl, so I told her I'd clean out the locker; and now it looks a lot better. Little does she know that I actually just placed everything back in there, just in order; I only threw out...one paper? Everything else is sitting there, waiting for her...Mwahahahaha...
Oh, I found a penny in some class, and I found a dime buried in the corner of our locker as I cleaned it up.
Yay! Today I'm 11¢ richer (and 45¢ poorer, but never mind that).
Learning the dances was fun...And Irene was a very good teacher. Thanks Irene!! ~❤
I think I got most of what she was trying to teach up...I just need practice. She said I was doing pretty well, so I'm feeling confident. ^^
One more thing, something I was pondering on for a while after school was out:
Pondrance: Why do some people try to stay angry and hold grudges? You know, it takes a lot more energy to remain angry and moody than to be happy and cheerful. Also, this lunch-lady-serving-lady told me a while back that if you have a good/positive attitude in life, everything will work out just fine.
Which reminds me of how I was behaving all civil and cordial and stuff when the conductor came up to our second level on the train and he let us see the inside of the "Engineer[ing/'s] cabin...It was cool; a lot like a cockpit, like he said.
I think that's all; my eyes are SOOOOOOO tired now...I gotta go. Remember guys: POSITIVE ATTITUDE!!!
Best of life~❦
...Why is it that on regular school nights I can't ever seem to go to bed on time, and on weekends I black out at 10pm? *Sigh*...The only reason why I'm here now is because I have things I wanna say, about my day, I can'y wait 'till tomorrow.
Which reminds me...
Quote of the day: "Tomorrow is today" and "Tomorrow has finally come."
Yeah, me and my locker partner [she-who-must-not-be-named] have had this issue with our locker and its tidiness for a while now. Its organization was good, for about the first two months of school. Then all Hell broke loose and it was a mess. This entire week we've been saying "We should really clean this out" and "We should REALLY, REALLY clean out our locker," and replying in the same busy/lazy way: "Meh. We'll do it tomorrow." One of my main reasons for putting it off so long is because I have/had dance tryouts this entire week. But today I wasn't gonna try out for anything; I just attended a little lesson in dance from my friend. So, I told
Oh, I found a penny in some class, and I found a dime buried in the corner of our locker as I cleaned it up.
Yay! Today I'm 11¢ richer (and 45¢ poorer, but never mind that).
Learning the dances was fun...And Irene was a very good teacher. Thanks Irene!! ~❤

When It All Comes Down to It: I'm an Idiot!! ^ u ^
Hallo. Yes, it is true. I am an android. A gay android. XD No, not really. But I am a bit of an idiot--today, at least (to those of you who would disagree, shut up and let your mind go blank). Mainly because I did not keep track of my surroundings. And my judgement sucks. I almost got hit by a bus today. I mean, the orange hand was flashing, which I always take as a chance to cross the street. I saw a bus coming, but I saw it slow down, so I started to cross...
*BEEEEP!!!BEEPBEEEEEP!!!*
Yeeeeah. Looking back (shortly after giving the bus the Evil Eye and witnessing a quick heart hyperactivity-moment-slash-brief-life-before-my-eyes-incident), I guess[ed] that the bus had to slow down, you know, to make the turn...
The driver yelled out the window--whether or not she opened it before or after the incident I do not know-- something about "DON'T YOU WALK OFF THE CURB--[wahwahwahwahblahblah]--(something) LIGHT!!!!"
I didn't listen really well; after all, all they shout at you is how much of an idiot you are, how you wanted to get hit/killed, and a few choice words. I know it all, even though this is the first time I did something that bad.
That lady was pissed. Sorry. Honest, I didn't mean to potentially cause an accident. But seriously, I'm sane and usually logical. Yelling at me about how stupid I am doesn't help the past, now does it, Lady? I know how much of an idiot I was, so I'll let it slip away from me now.
Normally I'd tell mis padres about this, like, to their faces, but I know exactly what'll go down: I'll get the eye roll, followed by the "What the frick were you thinking?" stare of angry disbelief, and then The Sigh, and then the lecture of what was already going through my head...why'd you do that? why weren't you paying attention to your surroundings? that was STUPID [of you]. COME ON, [my name] USE YOUR HEAD!!! Etc. That's about the gist of it. I already know how badly I messed up, and I know what they'd say to me once I told them, and I already scolded myself right after the event, so why bother telling them just to have them give me the exact same speech I figured they'd give and the same speech I gave myself in my head???
Meh. That was my idiocy act.
What else is in store:
Glowsticks tryouts-§§§
Obese America-∞∞∞
Misc.-∆∆∆

Daily Dose of Stress
Alright, so I can't remember a lot of the stuff I wanted to talk about yesterday, so yea, not gonna talk about it.
Today...was OK. I got a compliment on a composition I wrote a couple of weeks ago for orchestra from my teacher, Mr. M. It made me happy. He said it was very well written...the only thing I did wrong was something he didn't tell us not to do; something about "frustrating the lead[ing] tone" or something (sorry, I can't recall). I felt special, but I probably ruined it in that way of mine when I get flustered and change topics. XD
*Runs through day in mind*
Lit: I might just stop the whole manga idea and draw a single awesome picture and write an explanation of how the pic relates....I mean, the thing's due next Wednesday. I don't think I'll make it. I MIGHT have been able to do it...if I started when I should have. So, yeah.
Chem: I felt smart. I understood moles and conversions. That's all I have to say.
Spanish: I did well on those language lab assignments...but I apparently got a C on my second test. I DON'T DO THAT. It's a step up from the D on my first test, but I hate it anyway. And that DUDE (student teach). You know what he did today? He came over to answer the girls around me's questions, and when he was walking behind me, I--against my better judgement, because I foresaw what happened next--submitted an assignment and got my grade returned to me. He stopped and said, "What'd you get?" WHY DO YOU CARE? I didn't see or hear him ask anyone else what they got on the f***in' assignment. Why did he single me out??? I just don't like him. I'm sorry, but I will not get close to a teacher/sub/student teacher who tries to be cool or wants the kids to like them or win students' favors...I just don't. Like how I hate fakes/people who try to be cool ( I don't try; I either have it or I don't). Not ever gonna like him; I'm subconsciously building a barrier between the two of us. Hehehehe...
WS: Meh. Mr. T's back, but it was average...he let us out early though.
I had modern dance tryouts for this dance show I wanna be in...IDK how I did. My timing leaves something to be desired. Oh, and my body rolls (EPIC FAIL). At the same time I was attending glowsticks tryouts, and I'm happy to say that one of the heads was nice enough to teach me the routine, geared just for my...erm, special (*cough cough, slow, cough*) needs. I learned transitions thanks to him. THANKS, CHARLES!!!
I told Adam that I need to work on my timing (this was before the modern tryouts), and he asked how I could be able to try out for tinikling--Filipino dance with bamboo poles--if I couldn't get the timing for modern. A valid question; tinikling is all about coordinating the dancers' movements with the beat and rhythm of the poles. It was then that I realized---
I am easily bored and thusly distracted. I've always known this for a while. I notice that I can fail at something, practice it, get better at it, maybe excel at it, and after a while, mess it up completely again. This is what I figure: once I get the hang of something or used to something, I get bored. By becoming bored, I start getting lazy and stop caring about whatever it is I'm doing. I need constant change; something to mix it up a little. Like glowsticks. I can do the move called "the buzzsaw", but after a while I start messing up again (granted, it is also...my timing XD). I know that boredom comes from a lack of stimulation to your brain, so...yeah. I figured that into my deduction and reasonings...
I found a nickel prior to getting off the train going home.
I'm 5¢ richer today!!

"Your daily dose of stress."
From this radio show I was listening to...apparently, a certain amount of stress is good for you...keeps you on your toes or something...I don't know. But I have a LOT of it, and that CAN'T be good.

Quick and Hurried; [Random] Journal Entry IX
Umm, yeah. I wanna sleep, so I won't stay up late(r) like last night; I'll try to remember stuff from today, tomorrow. But real quick:
I actually danced for the first time since....um, 3rd grade, maybe?
I found a penny yesterday and kept it in my shoe; it was awkward walking around with that in there...¬_¬
So, I was 1¢ richer yesterday, and today I found a nickel...somewhere, and I found a whole quarter in the grass outside of school while going home. That's 30¢!! ^_^
So, I am 30¢ richer today (31¢ total, today and yesterday). Check out my change counter page for the total so far. (Mind you, this is my second year of school; so last year does not count...man, would I have a lot by now. >=D)
That will be all...I wanted to talk about the cool costumes I saw yesterday, but I guess not...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOMMY~!!!
PS: I finally got crackin' on that comic!! I'm on page 7 in thumbnail form...wish me luck!!! And vote on my random polls, plz!!
