JOURNAL: Tsuyoki (Caasi Drury)

  • **expressionless, dumbfounded face** 2003-08-08 01:20:10 I do not belive it. I read dredd's entire journal. (goes to show you just how messed-up I can be ;) It is now 11:13 p.m.

    The insomnia has definitly returned.

    You know what's really bad? My family is STILL UP watching and old movie my dad rented. Ugh.

    I'd better get offline STAT. Since I'm not paying for it, NetZero only gives me 10 hours of online service a month, and then, bam, it's gone. Man, that sucks.

    If I could only pry my fingers off the keyboard and mouse...

    By the way, Jacob, (or anyone else who's interested) if you haven't read the new profile I posted...well, you should. It's probably the best prose poetry I've written in a long time. 
  • my birthday, oil paintings, and shooting stars 2003-08-08 00:08:31 My birthday was pretty good; Jacob gave me some oil paints, four pieces of canvas paper, and a cd. My dad got me a monitor and mouse for my computer, and just a couple days ago, he hooked my computer up so I can go online and check my mail and stuff. Finally; I can write in here without anyone looking over my shoulder!

    I started an ocean/sunset painting on Monday, and today I started a landscape painting. I'll probably end up putting a castle or something in the background to finish it. ;)

    I really, really want to spend the night at Jacob's next Tuesday so I can watch the Persied meteor shower. I was going to ask my parents about it, but my dad cut my plans short, because he rented The Dark Crystal, which I haven't seen in awhile, so I'll have to wait untill tomorrow to talk to him about it. Sigh.

    It's almost 10:00, but I'm not really that tired. Maybe I'm getting insomnia again. Jacob told me that when he was still living in Sunnyvale and going to college there, he had insomnia quite a bit. He'd go for five or ten mile walks in the middle of the night! (Yikes!) I wonder if he ever got scared out there alone? I'd probably be scared half out of my wits, even though I took a self-defense class. For some reason, I don't think I'd be scared if I was walking alone at night in Japan. I still want to go there for at least a month, like as an exchange college student studying anime or something.  
  • T minus 3 days and counting... 2003-07-30 18:04:17 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

    MY BIRTHDAY IS IN THREE DAYS! I AM GOING CRAZY!

    Just kidding about the going crazy part, although I am quite bored. So, yesterday, I started designing a dress to make and wear to the Renaisance Faire next year in Corona.

    It has a white V-neck collar that ends just before the clevage line starts, a blue short-sleeved lace-up corset with darts, and the sleeves and skirt are going to be light blue. It's going to be mostly cotton, except for the corset. I'm not sure what kind of materiel to use for that.

    I already made a macreme belt out of white crochet thread, and a change purse out of blue felt with a drawstring closure. I already have the shoes.

    I think I'll probably just get a hippie skirt and dye it, and the sleeves are easy. The only problem is going to be that corset.
     
  • "I count the hours, you count the days, together we count the minutes in this passion play..." 2003-07-26 23:06:23 Ack! My 19th birthday is in a week! I baked and frosted my cake today, then put it in the freezer 'cause the icing was melting. Too much humididty, I guess. It's my favorite color: pink! I put marichino cherry juice in the frosting, and the cake itself tastes like cotton candy. Yummy!

    I got a phone call from Jacob today. I haven't seen him in a week, so I was really happy to talk to him. He told me that they had an encore presentation of "Forever Plaid" at a country club, and all the performers got paid $25 each, him included.

    Then he asked me what I wanted for my birthday, so I told him that I had been wanting to do an oil panting for a long time. He asked if I wanted anything else, so I said that I really missed him and wanted to see him on my birthday. From the way he was talking I think he wanted me to ask for something else. (like the something I mentioned in my last entry, but I was way too embarrised to ask for THAT.) It's not that I don't want it, but it would be nice if Jacob got a job first! 
  • "...confusion, transfusion, I'm never, never, never gonna speed again..." 2003-07-04 20:08:09 Happy Fireworks Day!
    hehehe.

    I wanted to go to the barbeque at Jacob's church, but he hasn't called or anything. I'm trying to convince my parents to go there later to watch the fireworks show at Serrano High School, but I need to find out from Jacob what time they start. I'm thinking about calling him after I get offline.

    Jacob got a HAIRCUT yesterday! He even shaved off his sideburns, mousetache, and beard! He looks like my uncle Mike now; I felt kinda
    weird kissing him. He looks a lot older without facial hair; at least 21. It's going to take me awhile to get used to it.

    He keeps asking me what I want for my birthday, (August 2) but I'm not quite sure what to tell him. I mentioned a cd repair kit, so I could fix all (9!) of those cds he gave me, but he said those don't work very well. He's already lent me all his books and cds on learning Japanese.

    He kinda joked about buying me some new clothes; he thinks the ones I own aren't close-fitting enough. (it's true; I've lost 15 lbs since January)

    But what I really want is (don't tell!) an engagment ring. I know he wants to get a job first, and he's told me that he want to marry me. It's kinda scary to think about sometimes...but not that scary.
