1033 Hallo minna-san!
2006-06-05 17:13:40
Yes indeed, I take forever. But SOLs are done, as is the SAT (which I had to take fcuking OUT OF STATE because I am a SLACKER and didn't register until the LAST DAY!! Sigh.). Only things left are the finals. This includes projects and papers. None of these is specifically mind-bogglingly horrible, it's just a lot of work to finish by Friday. That's also the night we have our choral concert. ^^;;;
As you can probably guess, I'm procrastinating right now. I have French, math, a physics quiz to study for, writing to edit, an english paper to start, not to mention a short write up on the songs I'm using for the history project (American History through Music. Such fun!!!!). That's all what I should do TODAY. Sigh. Anyone else tired of my bitching?
Yesterday, I went white water rafting with a bunch of friends in PA. It was great; I love rafting! We've gone every summer to the same river for the past five years and each time it's different. For example, yesterday was cold and rainy and we had to wear wetsuits. Another time, the river was really low because it was so dry. Makes it interesting. Yesterday we got pinned between a couple rocks. Our guide fought for a long time trying to get us free, and we just sat there thinking "What do we DO??" Later, Caty started to push me and we ended up both going into the river. T'was fun!
BTW, I saw Chr(o)no Crusade a few weeks ago. Very cool, then the ending went all to hell. SPOILER: The bad guy WON!!! They killed Satella! Joshua forgot everything! Reminton suffered! Aion lived! Why the hell did that cruel bastard live?? I mean, I really did like the show, even the strange climax plot and the sweetly tragic end for Chrono and Rosette, but if they had just ended the series at ep 18, after that sweet heart-to-heart, I would have been happy. On another note, did Chrono have amnesia or something? He originally brought Mary to Aion to complete his evil plan. He didn't REMEMBER that Aion needed the Mary Madgalene for his evil plan?! I think I would have been interrogating Chrono black-and-blue trying to figure out what was going on! Ok, not black-and-blue. Chrono's a sweetie.
Little things like that bothered me, but it was a cool story (looking forward to the manga!!). I think my fave characters were Chrono and Azmaria. She was so sweet, and really grew through the story. Yohkata.
BTW, saw Memoirs of a Geisha, too. My first impressiong hearing about it was "Can Hollywood really not tell Asians apart?" I still don't know, but I liked the movie. It was quite a story, and knowing the cultural details gave me a sense of power >:)
Thus ends my entry today. Mataa ne, minna-san! I won't bother promising that I'll write soon, because I probably won't. *shrug* I'll write when I write when I write. :P

1015 Raining Again
2006-05-18 15:21:24
It's been a while. Again. Just thought I should say something here before the next slew of standardized tests start next week.
Done with APs; I'm not confident about either. English, sigh. I wrote a lot for my history essays, but that means nothing as far as the grade goes. Next are SOLs in History, Algebra II and English. As well as oral PALs in French. I cannot stand French anymore. The language I love, the teacher I hate. And now I guess I should be worried, because I'm not a favorite in the class anymore, and it may affect my grade. C'est la vie.
I've been working a lot on my drawings lately, finishing at least one sketch of 10 of my characters. Maybe I'll have a few on dA by this weekend. I'll also put down a few opinions here, too. I have so many due. TToTT In the meantime I'm submitting my anthology work for CW - shall be fun.
I don't know what else to write here, really. I'll KIT. Ja ne!

But I found this on my friend's journal and thought I'd complete it (the first question was intriguing). So here goes, and thanks to redwalgrl.
1. What color are your kitchen plates?
Well, some are corelle (unbreakable until you drop them onto a concrete patio from the back deck 20 feet above. My mom let us try this!!) and some are ceramic with a blue-plant motif around the edges. I don't remember the details.
2. What book are you reading now?
The Great Gatsby in English (on hold until after AP exams), Marley and Me with my parents (car reads) and Unfinished Nation (my history textbook, all of which I need to know and love by APs).

Stable: A blue stamp that says A-4 Tech, two wheels (one of which doesn't work), 4 buttons.
Laptop: black color, 2 silver buttons. One wheel.
Both: my sweat. :P
4. Favorite board game?
Does sudoku count? No. ...Yatzee drives me crazy... Candyland... Movie Madness!!
5. Least favorite smells?
Skunk is up there (chemicalish)... Bradford Pear... those pens that make my head hurt... vomit + excrement... there is one overwhelming thing, but I can't remember what it is!

Something along the lines of "Oh, I'm conscious again."
7. Favorite color:
Reddish purple. Followed by bright bluish green.
8. Least favorite color:
Muddy orange. Vomit-green. If you see these shades, you know what I mean.
9. How many rings until you answer the phone?
I don't count, I run or rummage to answer the damn phone!
10. FUTURE CHILD'S NAME:
Maybe something where the nickname is Kai. I haven't given this much thought.
11. Chocolate or Vanilla?
If it's soft-serve, the twist w/ both. More often, I like vanilla.
12. Do you like to drive fast?
Off-hand, no. And my car isn't very powerful, anyway.
13. Do you sleep with a stuffed animal?
Kinda, they're on my bed. A black cat named Boo-Boo (got him at a garage sale as a kid. He had a hole) and a cute little stuffed dog I call Morrie.
14. Do you like thunderstorms?
Very cool. Especially lightning in the clouds.
15. What was your first car?
My prius. My cute little prius. Which isn't very powerful, but it saves fuel. Hope for hybrids!
16. What is your sign?

Year of the Dragon (eccentric, powerful. In the right situation?) (Hatori!!)
17. Do you eat the stems of broccoli?

O god, I'm faced with this question all the time. STOP ASKING ME, I DON'T KNOW!!!!

22. Do you type with your fingers on the right keys?
I think so.

A drawer. Feathers. Sometimes my eyeshades.
24. What is your favorite number?
2, or 4
25. Favorite sports to watch?
I don't have TV, and I wouldn't watch sports anyway. It's more fun watching my friends fool around.

Off the top of my head, when I had really intense stomach pain + period cramps!
27. Person most likely to respond?
To what?
28. Person you sent this to who is least likely to respond?
What? I'm not sending, I'm posting. I hate chain mails.

Ketchup, a little mustard.

Spring, probably. Not insanely hot, but not too cold anymore.
33. The best place you have ever been?
Brown University. I miss being there.

big dogs. Huskies, Chow mixes, the like. Big mixed-breed mutts!
37. Your nicknames?
Lee-kun (like Syaoran, come to think of it). Changed it to Lee-san.
What I go by in life, my friend started calling me in first grade. It just stuck. Call me any other derivative of my name, and I go crazy.
38. Have you ever been kissed by the opposite gender?
First grade, lips, under desks. That was the last one. Sigh.
39. What annoys you the most?
A lot of things, but the most would be stupidity. Others' stupidity, and my own.
40. What's your crushes' name?
Perry. There are a few others, local, to a lesser extent.
41. What's your best friend's name?
Cris I've known forever, others we have a lot in common...
42. Which celebrity annoys you the most?
Will Farrell!!!! DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!
43. What type of music do you dislike the most?
Rap and country. Very few exceptions in either.
45. What is currently on your wrist?
A weird little spot that itched like hell a few days ago.
46. Okay, If you and one other person could be alone on the entire planet, who would you choose?
There are a good number...
47. Are you a righty or a lefty?
Right-hand. Lefty liberal, and DAMN THE PERSON WHO MADE THAT A DIRTY WORD.
48. What's your favorite tv show?
American: Firefly. Hands down. Anime: FullMetal Alchemist all the way!
49. If you could make-out with any cartoon character, who would it be?
cartoon=animated? My immediate thought is Edward Elric, though I dunno. I've never made out, and I really wouldn't wanna be bad at it with him. Now I'm wondering how skilled he'd be. *ponders, grins*
50. If you could say or do anything to Johnny Depp, what would you do?
I dunno. Ask his autograph, have a conversation with him. I'd like to know of his thought process. Which movies did he like doing better?
51. Do you use any movie/tv show quotes in everyday life?
Sometimes, yeah. Coming up with quotes is my favorite game, though very few people are willing to play it.
52. If you could have any super power, what would it be?
I often think about X-ray vision, that lets you find anything. Everything goes black except for the thing you're looking for, which glows. It shows the direction it's in and the distance from me - you see your glasses downstairs on top of where the table would be if you were looking for that.
53. What is your favorite band?
Nightwish!! Incredible!
54. Do you hate anyone?
Well, Will Farrell as mentioned before. Many of the kids in my school. The leaders of our country. People who are not just stupid, but obnoxious about it. Bullies. Etc.
55. What's on your desktop?
A pic of the Elric boys with their mum. I think a fan designed the background.
56. Do you have any pets?
Two dogs. A border collie mix named Dusty, and a large "handsome tri-color beagle" named Snap (coupled with Crackle and Pop).
57. Do you have a fursona, if so, what is it, and what's it's name?
A what??
58. What are your hobbies?
Writing, bumming around fan sites, drawing, etc.
59. Pepsi or Coke?
Pepsi more so, but I'm for Canada Dry.
60. Do you like bondage pants?
I'd look stupid. Sohma Kyo looks great in 'em, though. They're cool.
61. Are you going to spell check this?
I don't think I need to.
62. Do you want my body?
... who are you? Are you offering it to rent?
63. What would you do for a klondike bar?
Something easy. They don't seem worth much effort to me.
64. If you were a three-headed monkey demon, what would you eat for lunch?
Anything. Demons don't get ill!
65. What would you do if you were trapped inside a Cadbury Egg?
Cry and choke on the malt dust. Or try to break out.
66. You have an hour to live, and millions of dollars at your fingertips....How did this happen ?
Deal with the devil. Not likely at all.
67. What do you think you would do if you were told you had to leave everything you knew and loved and had to fight in a war?
Freak, fight it. In the end, survive. If it were noble, I'd give it my all.
68. Whose brain would you warp first if you could?
I don't think I get power trips like that. But it'd be cool to have my classmates as my puppets.
What I conclude: I really overthink things!!
Anyway, thought I'd post that before going to bed. These next two weeks are gonna be hell, what with the APs. Wish me luck, minna-san!

961 Home
2006-04-15 14:32:43
Home from Williamsburg and scrambling to catch up with all my work due Monday. I'm also suffering from motivation-based pseudo writer's-block. I want to work on my story, but I can't... form the words, probably because my invisible mallet of a conscience is screaming "Homework!" I don't wanna....
Well, Happy Easter everybody.
I don't remember whether I have a voice lesson tomorrow. That'd be fun. But my work...
C'est la vie. C'est la vie. Que sera, sera.
I guess I'll work on my Great Gatsby assignment. Very interesting story, though none of the characters are really likeable. The word "vapid" comes to mind. But it's kinda funny watching them. And sad, since I can see a lot of those attitudes reflected today in my generation.
I wish I could just do something and be incredible.
