Warning: thanks/quick post, dentist, wp, & today/weekend

Thank you all for your wonderful comments. *hugs* I didn't read them yet...for I don't have enough time. :( I really need to make this a quick post...because unlike my other posting days, I don't have a hefty 2 hours today! I have that activity to do...pickleball, and that's in 15 minutes!! O__o Nooo...I'm actually quite nervous about it...I shouldn't be, but I am. So yeah, thanks for the comments, and I'm just going to type as quickly as I can! Yesterday sucked. I will say that. I felt drugged all day (thanks to sleeping pills...but I'm out so now I have to rely on my own sleeping powers. *sigh*), and umm...like I said before, I had a dentist appointment. :( For fillings. NOooo. It was terrible. After school, I had a quick lunch, and then it was off to the dentist...we were right on time, but we had to wait for SO long. And you all know that waiting for a doctor/dentist appointment always makes you more nervous! T__T When it was finally my time...just ugh. *sigh* I won't go into details about the filling procedure, but she had to drill away a lot of my teeth...more than she thought. 3 teeth in the bottom near the front...there was barely any tooth left so it was like she was sculpting new teeth with the filling. ^^; She lied!! Before she said I only had 2 little tiny cavaties...it'd be "quick." Hah. To deflect the pain from the initial numbing shot and the pressure during drilling...I was digging my nails [which are very long] into my hands. ^^;; Last night I could still see the marks I left. It hurt...silly me. Looked like a dog bite mark or something. XD I couldn't sleep well last night because my mouth hurt so much. :( Even now, my mouth is a bit hurty (not a word)...argh, it sucks. Anyhoo, yesterday I made a new wallpaper. It was a request from my sweet and only "real-life" friend on MO, Lindsay (Narret). :3 I hope she likes it...I've been getting great comments on it, which I'm surprised about. Thank you all so much. [and it was accepted on AP, too!!] Please download/comment!! It's of Hakkai from Saiyuki. Hosted By theOtaku.com. Okies...I should wind this down now...I have to go do gym...*sigh* And then I have French, and then wow, it's the weekend. This week went by surprisingly fast! Probably because most of each day I've been in a tired daze. ^^; I don't know if I'll post during the weekend, but we'll see...I know I have lots of homework to do. Boo. Well, thanks for visiting me, sorry for my lack of comments, and have a good day/weekend!

Warning: thanks, morning, yesterday..., fell, wp, & this week

O__o How do I keep getting loads of comments?? Wow. Thank you all sooooo much. *huggles* You know that I love you all tons! Whether you comment on all of my posts, once a week, once a month...it doesn't matter. I appreciate you all. :3 I'm glad you liked my new theme! I'm quite content with it as well. It will probably stay up for a while...yup. Little birdie, amila, Lys, Innocent Heart, capture, and filo...and possibly others, too, thank you for returning. So nice to hear from you all again. :3 Hmm...I noticed that a lot of you don't care much about church, which is totally fine. We barely go either. ^^; Thanks for the encouragement with a lot of things...and just, um, everything! I won't be specific with comment replies today, but you know I appreciate them! Thankies. *yawns* Man...tired...boo. Um, it's another cloudy and rainy day, but guess what? It's frickin' warm!! It's like spring...almost summer. It's about 70F degrees. It's February, for goodness' sake! At this rate, we'll never get any good snow. WTF?? And it's really windy, which you know I can't stand. I'm just glad it isn't freezing wind...it's not so bad when it's warmer, but still. Our shutters [on our house's windows] always bang against the walls...it's so loud and scary!! So it's hard to sleep whenever there's wind. -__-; Um, but at the moment I'm at school, in the library. Sorry, no good-looking guys this time...darn. I did have another L-related dream this morning though! We went to Hot Topic, and there were a lot of Death Note shirts and sweatshirts...especially L ones. XD I wish my dreams were like that more often. Ok, so I just had math class, and it was boring. Duh. After this I have French and English...I guess I did all my homework for them. ^^; I honestly don't remember. My friend Madii usually just goes home after math and skips her next class...but she didn't today. XD That's a first! It's cause she didn't have her car [she was dropped off], so she couldn't just drive home. She was saying how much she hates school...I can tell! After all, she probably only goes to 60% of her classes. Speaking of classes and attendence...I skipped my first class yesterday. I've never done that before. BUT. I have good reason. :( It was the class when I was supposed to do a gym class...pickleball, and I was GOING to go. I was mentally preparing myself the night before. I was actually looking forward to it to be fun...*sigh* But...my insomnia took major hold the night before. :( It was one of those terrible nights where I laid there awake until f-ing 6am. So I couldn't wake up for it...*sigh* I guess I'll just have to take an absence [we're allowed 4 in my health class]. My teacher said I could just go to another activity even though I didn't sign up for it, but I don't have any open times to do so. Yeah...so I didn't do that yesterday, but I still managed to wake up for history...and then I had graphic design. GD is such a long and annoying class. My teacher gives us so much work to do, but the thing is that she barely gives us time in the frickin' 3-hour class to do it. It's all "homework," even though it has to be done on the Macs on Illustrator anyway. Ugh. This guy in my class is always saying how boring it is since he knows how to do it all already [yeah, me TOO], and he likes talking to me. He even smiled at me. O__o Odd. He's not cute, and I don't like him, but I wonder if he likes me?? Hmm...he's not like the creepy stalker guy at least... Oh, I forgot to say that I tripped and fell this morning on my pavement...and I fell to the ground since I had my stupidly heavy backpack on that weighed me down. :( I'll probably have a bruise on my knee...and I'm aching here and there. Ugh. Anyhoo, yesterday, I made a new wallpaper, which is featured now and accepted on AP. ^_^ Yayness. Please look at it if you haven't already. Thanks. Hosted By theOtaku.com. Sorry, this is getting long!!! But you probably won't hear from me in the next couple of days. Tomorrow, I have a dentist's appointment. T__T The one for my filling...stupid dentist. Ugh. I'm not looking forward to that. *sigh* Drills aren't friendly. And then Friday is the other activity day...and I'm doing pickleball in between math and French [like now, when I'd usually post}, so yeah, I won't have time to post. Sorry. And sorry AGAIN for no comments yesterday...I didn't go on MO at all except to submit my wallpaper. Anyhoo, this is getting too long, I imagine! So I'll shut up. I want sleep, and I don't want to feel depressed anymore...howw???/// No amv. Don't feel like looking for one. ^^; Sorry. Look at my previous posts for ones if you want. Well, thank you a ton for putting up with me and my huge posts like usual. *hugs* You're so wonderful!! Have a good few days!

Warning: thanks, new theme, morning/weekend, church, yesterday, busy, & amv

Thank you guys!! Arigatou for the comments. I keep getting a lot lately, but I'm sure that streak will stop soon. ^^; But I'm very grateful to have such wonderful friends. :3 Thankies. As usual, I shall welcome back my friends that have been missing lately! Midnightqueen, anime snow girl, MDA, Alex, Ordinary Girl, and Driffter. Thanks for commenting again; it's been a while, and I'm happy to hear from you guys again! I also got a lot of really long comments...very helpful ones. ^_^ I appreciate it. I'm glad you liked my wallpaper. And about my sleep, Aya, you always have the most, um, doctor-like suggestions...I'd rather not go to a psychologist, but you never know. *hugs* Thankies. I love you guys! Well, first off, I think it's obvious that I have a new theme. XD Gi-chan, thanks for already noticing and commenting on it! Oli-chan, too. I changed it on Saturday, so if you commented before Saturday night, then you probably didn't see it. It's very white, don't you agree??? I've never had such a white/bright theme before. It's almost snowy...pure, as Gi-chan said. I found the wallpaper on AP, and I knew I wanted it as my new bg! So yeah, I also figured it was about time I changed my theme...since it's been a couple months. I hope you like it! Anyhoo, I'm in the library right now, after my math class. I'm currently sitting next to a pretty good-looking guy. Teehee. But I only got one look at him...so maybe he isn't that good-looking?? I'd feel odd if I just turned around and started staring at him while he's working. XD ANYHOO again, math class was ok...just boring, of course. I didn't want to wake up this morning...it's cloudy and somewhat rainy again. It's days like these that make me want to have a 3-day weekend. -__- Speaking of weekends, I didn't post all weekend again! Sorry!! It's unheard of for me...but here I did it 2 weeks in a row. Maybe it's a new trend...I'm just too busy with homework on sundays (also possible church), and I sleep too late on saturdays, thus missing my "posting time." ^^; But yeah...hmm...I'm tired...[when aren't I?] Let's see, I guess I'll attempt to talk about the weekend now...nothing exciting. Saturday was a nothing day. And yesterday we went to church in the morning *waves goodbye to sleeping late*. The pastor really made us stay for a long time...it was like we had two sermons. Apparently something bad happened at the last congregational meeting, and there was arguing about things going on in our church. See, our pastor is somewhat new, and not everyone likes him...or what he wants to change. ^^; So it was like he was lecturing us before we could take communion. It was odd since my family hasn't gone in a while, and we had no clue what was going on. XD Btw, I'm presbyterian, not Catholic or anything. But anyhoo, after church we got lunch and went home! The rest of the day was like any other, except I didn't get any FUN computer time...just homework. *sigh* I had this stupid English essay to do (a summary and response to an article), and it took forever!! I couldn't wait to get it done and just take a shower. Oh yeah...yesterday was the Super Bowl. XD I'm not a football fan so I didn't really care. It was just amazing that the Giants won...someone finally beat those darn Patriots [sorry if you like them! I don't really care either way]. Hmm...I didn't make a new wallpaper, sorry. Saturday I wasted a lot of time trying to find a good image for me to attempt to vector. ^^; Gi-chan, don't ask me for help. I've never vectored anything before!! I want to vector Nami from One Piece, so if any of you have a good site with screenshots from there, do tell! In other news, we've been watching One Piece and Lovely Complex. LoveCom is pretty good. I find it funny that I'm watching two shows where the main girl is voiced by Akemi Okamura (nami & Risa). XD Alrighty, I suppose I should start ending this post soon, huh? I have French and English later, and then tomorrow...is one of those activity days. *sigh* So that means the gym I signed up for (pickleball)...then I have history and graphic design. This week will probably be really busy and stressful for me, and I won't be able to post much. I'm posting today (duh) and Wednesday, but I'm not sure about any other days. Ok, anyhoo, I'll go find an amv now! Here's a Nodame one that combines the anime and live action version. Enjoy! Well, thank you all very much for putting up with me. :3 *hugs* I'm sorry for not commenting as much lately...but the stress!! ^^; Not to mention, I've been really feeling depressed lately. Bah. But um...yes, have a good couple of days!

Warning: thanks, rainy day, yesterday classes, wp, earring consultant, & sorry

I love j00 guys!! L33t? WTF? I don't even know any of it. XD *laugh* But I just wanted to say that. *hugs* You guys are amazing. How'd I get so many comments?? That's what I'd like to know...I totally thought I'd barely get any...thank you, and sorry AGAIN for MY lack of commenting. Those of you that apologized for not being here in a while, don't worry about it. Seriously, if I were mad at you, then I'd be a hypocrite. Anyhoo, EP, anit4e, Paintwriter, Yug, Gi-chan, and everyone else that has sorta been MIA lately, thank you for returning. I've missed you guys indeed!! I appreciate everything that was said...though I haven't really read the comments yet. ^^;; I don't have the time at the moment [I don't even think I read monday's yet! *is lazy*]. But yeah, thankies a billion. Today is the perfect day...well, it WOULD be if it were the weekend. Perfect "sleeping weather" I'd call it...if I could sleep. *sigh* It's cold and raining, a lot. I love the rain!!! But I really wish it were snow at this time of the year. :( We haven't really gotten any snow yet...which sucks. At least we're getting rain, but still. I'd like it better if I were at home and in my bed, not here at school having to walk around campus in it. ^^; I love walking in the rain, but not when it's this cold! Anyhoo, I had math this morning, which was boring (duh), and then after that I went to the Mac (computer) lab to work on my graphic design project for tuesday. This time we had to *drumroll* vector *another drumroll* a...flag. -__- Some country's flag; I chose S. Korea because it isn't that complicated nor too boring. Yeah, simple, but we're just the "intro" class! So I have that finished, but there's still a lot of other homework she assigned us, non-computer. Let's see...I talked about this morning...I guess I'll just move onto yesterday because I don't remember wednesday at all. So yesterday I had health class first and then history. It's my only "short" day. We just took notes in health, and basically the same thing in history class, except it was somewhat amusing. For once, my teacher was asking us questions (really simple ones, too) about what we were supposed to read for homework. XD We couldn't really answer him correctly. Apparently, no one reads what we're supposed to [I just skim...reading history books is too hard!], but my teacher doesn't really care. *laugh* He has such a lax attitude! He'd make fun of our answers and say, "Well, I can see that you all READ what you were supposed to! Good job!" XD Very sarcastic. He's so much different from my other teachers that would get mad and yell, "You guys obviously didn't do your homework. This is college! Do your work!" Sooooo yeah. And after class I was talking to my teacher a bit because he asked me if I took French. We were learning about the French Revolution, and I was blurting out translations of some of the words he was using, and that's why he asked. We talked about that, and then I mentioned how I know more Japanese than French. He was interested in that! And then I brought up the words he mispronounced during our little Japanese history lecture. XD He said he'd remember the correct pronunciations, but I doubt it. Umm, so after classes, I went home! Corey (older brother) had his acupuncture appointment so that meant time to myself. :3 I didn't do much, mainly just worked on my new wallpaper. I submitted it here and animepaper, and it was accepted there, so yay. ^_^ I'm getting some constructive comments on it this time, which is good. I totally agree with them, too; I'll lessen the texture on his face when I get the chance. So here is it submitted on theO...barely any downloads, but oh well. What I don't get here, I make up for on AP. Btw, this wallpaper looks much better at the highest resolution (1600x1200), which can be found here [though you need an account to download...]. Err, so yeah, please download/comment if you want. Thanks! Hosted By theOtaku.com. Ah yes, last night...I forgot. XD After I made my wallpaper, I did some homework, and after dinner, my friend Karen called me. She's one of the few people I do things with. Last time, we went shopping at the mall [remember?], and she got her ears pierced. Yesterday was her b-day, which I totally didn't know/remember...and the reason she called me? Because she wanted advice on how to take out her earrings. O__o Oh YES. Me. The great piercing expert! *is sarcastic* I don't even have pierced ears!! These were the first earrings that were initially pierced into her ear, and they're different from everyday earrings...uhh...I just kept saying, "Don't you just pull off the backing? Screw it off??" ^^; That didn't work, and I had no clue what it looked like. I just told her to call the freakin' place she got her ears pierced at [genius, much?]. That was quite possibly the most pointless and annoying phone call ever. How was I supposed to know? Apparently I'm a piercing consultant now. Go figure. This post is getting long, ne? Sorry about that. *hugs* And sorry again for my lack of visiting...I'll try to do better today. As for this weekend, I have no clue...I don't know if I'll post tomorrow or not, but I probably won't post sunday since I have lots of homework...so be prepared! *hugs* Okies then. Thanks for visiting and have a good weekend! [edit: Saturday. I changed my theme. About time, don't you think?? I like it...it's just really white! XD A first for me!]

Warning: thanks, morning, AP rant, yesterday/head hurts, thursday appointments, & sorry

*yawns* Yes, I really just yawned before starting to type...anyhoo, thanks for the comments everyone. I love you guys. :3 Even if you didn't get to read/comment on all of my post, that's fine. I'm just happy to hear from you...though one-liners really get on my nerves. I understand being busy or sick though! So yeah, people that have been MIA for a while!! coolcatkyo, Jason, thoa-kun, xanth (girl, this theme has been up for a couple months, that's how long you've been gone!), Krusty, too. Sooo nice seeing you guys again. ^_^ *hugs* And a new friend, itsumademo. Welcome!! It's great to have another new friend, especially one that is a fellow long-poster! Actually, it seems like most of you that commented haven't been here often...XD Which is fine. Thanks for the encouragement with my health, school, brother, and just everything! You're awesome! I'll try my best to make this post shorter...since I realize that my past couple have been huge. My last one was because I didn't post for several days....anyhoo, I am here in the library (of course), and well, I feel pretty sucky [ooh, high vocabulary]. My head and neck really hurt, and my sinuses are still running amuck [??]. It's extremely windy outside, and I HATE the wind. I mentioned that before...I dislike the wind very much, especially when it's cold. -__- Ummm, so I just had math class, and after that I had to go to the gym to sign up for those blasted activity days for next week. Yeah, those "mandatory" [unless you take a sick day] gym days we have to do for health class. *sigh* I despise playing team sports and lifting weights, so I went with something called "pickleball." I've never heard of it before so I looked it up...seems interesting and not too strenuous, yay. Maybe that way I won't collapse and have a deathly low blood pressure. Hmm...let's see...now I'm going to have one of my mini daily AnimePaper-rants. Hah, why am I there if I always find so many negatives about it??? Anyhoo, I just wanted to talk about my last wallpaper. Remember it? Arislan? Light green? So yeah, I was excited that they accepted it, but it's like "why?" I know that they're stricter there and hold higher expectations...but some people are jerks. They leave comments about it not being that great or "the colors clash" or "you ruined the scan"...they say things that are bad about my wallpaper but don't give suggestions. I don't call that constructive criticism; that's just criticism...so yeah, I'm just a bit disappointed in that respect. I take to heart what people say and think that "yes, ok, it doesn't look that great..." but they could give suggestions on how to make it better. And what makes me mad is that these know-it-alls don't even have any wallpapers submitted. How do they know what's good or not? -__-; Ok, sorry! I'm done my rant now...I need a break from wallpapers...maybe... Argh, my head is killing me!!!! It's one of those sinus headaches!! >< And yesterday I had a major one...it felt like a migraine. So yeah, I could barely visit anyone...at all. Very hard to read. And also I had lots of homework to do last night!! Stupid, stupid. Hey, I didn't talk about yesterday yet!!! Well, I had health [boring], history [somewhat boring], and graphic design [horribly long; elementary compared to what I already know; my teacher can be a biatch despite her "let's start out each class with a moment of silence/prayer"...she was really bawling out this one guy out for something that wasn't even his fault]. That was condense, wasn't it?? I could've talked about each class in detail, but I won't bother. I'd make this post too long again, and my head hurts. Today I have French and English after this break. Tomorrow is the first thursday in a while that I won't/don't have a doctor's appointment of some kind...next thursday I will though. -__- I need that tooth filled at the dentist. Last week was the allergist, before that was the dentist, before that was my other doctor...next week, dentist again, and then the week after that is my allergist once more. And all of those were/are on thursdays...my only short day of classes. Bleeeeehhhhh. *slumps* Ok, I guess I've tortured you guys enough for the day. I have no art to show you, and since this computer hates youtube, no video for you either. Sorry. I'll do my best to visit you guys today...I'll try. Thanks for visiting me, sorry for anything, and have a good couple of days! Here's a parting pic for once though. XD Bask in the adorableness of a neko-L!

Warning: thanks, morning, weekend/wp, b-day, busy, & amv

Hello, hello! No, I'm not dead despite popular belief! And despite how my last post sounded. ^^;; I'm a bit better, thanks, and here I am posting. Thank you for the comments, my wonderful friends. You had 3 days+ to comment on it. XD I never leave for that long, but I did warn that I might not post all weekend! Anyhoo, thank you all very much for your sweet words concerning my health and all. *hugs* I haven't actually read all of the comments yet, but I wanted to get this post out of the way first...since it's been a while, and yeah. Thanks to those that visited and haven't been here in a while; it's quite alright. ^_^ I haven't been any better with commenting either. Thanks again! Crazy, right? Not posting for a whole weekend! It's normal for most of you though. XD But now it is monday...and I am here in the library. I'm starting this post later because before this I had to to go the "Mac lab" and work on some graphic design assignment, which is due tomorrow. I don't have Illustrator at home so I couldn't do it at home...obviously. And those computers are retarded; the internet doesn't work well on them--"Safari" doesn't like MO or animepaper so it closes them. *rolls eyes* So I finished that and came here. Before this, I had math class, and I was struggling to breathe because, again, that girl sat next to me with her horrible smoke-stench... My sinuses are still pretty bad, but they're actually a TAD bit better...still, we're afraid that I might have a sinus infection now (not just bad allergies) so my mom's going to call the doctor to get me some antibiotics. [that was a long sentence!] This weekend was torture for me and my nose. I was constantly stuffed up and blowing my nose. T__T Ugh. I hate it! But yeah, other than that...I shall talk about my weekend. Saturday was totally a nothing day. I don't remember it at all, so I'm pretty sure nothing happened. I started on a wallpaper, which I promptly finished yesterday (haha, not really "promptly") and submitted here and AP. I was psyched to see that they accepted it, too! I'm on a roll! I was sooo afraid that they wouldn't accept it since they're so darn strict. And, well, here it is on MO. ALMOST featured...which I'd love to happen. It's of Arslan from "Heroic Legend of Arslan", which is an older series [I acutally think it's only 3 very long episodes]. So please download/comment!! *hugs* Hosted By theOtaku.com. Ok, so aside from a wallpaper [I should take a break from making them, shouldn't I? ^^;], yesterday was my brother Corey's birthday. Yes, the brother that I oftentimes complain about that still doesn't have a job...and is now a whopping 27 years old. -__-; *sigh* Um, I actually forgot about it before so that's why I didn't mention it on friday. XD For the celebration, we went and saw the new Rambo movie. Yup, old Sylvester Stallone...back in action. It was actually good! We were afraid it was going to suck because of the reviews we read beforehand. ^^;;; And they all said it was terrible, and they were making fun of Sly, said he looked like a hot dog or something...weird. *laugh* But yeah, good movie, short, but really good...lots of violence and killings!! Some of which was actually too much for me...simply because it was so realistic and sad. Genocides are happening in this world today, and it's just so scary and sad. Um, so after the movie, we went to Target to waste some time and then went out to eat. The dinner was ok...but eh, I never care for restaurant food. Can't beat mommy's cooking! XD After that, we went home and Corey opened his gifts. Nothing particularly special there, and my oldest brother Derek was a disappointment...he put no thought into his gift at all, and he was forced to say "happy birthday." *sigh* I hate how my brothers don't get along. :( It's really sad. Anyhoo, one gift that my brother will be getting is...a PSP. It hasn't arrived yet, but yeah. >> Lucky him. And, argh, I could complain more about him and his attitude, but I won't. I suppose this post is getting long enough, eh? Probably. I won't post tomorrow, and I have a hearty amount of homework to do tonight...but hopefully I can fit in some visiting for you guys. *hugs* I'm so sorry again that I haven't made it to many of your sites very often. :( I've just been so busy and ill-feeling. I have French next, which I need to study for (we have a test), and then English...tomorrow I have health (oh joy), history, and graphic design...err, yeah. Here's an Arislan amv; it's totally a mystery to me because my school hates youtube. ^^;; I just searched for one, and this came up, but I can't seem to load it...so good luck. I wonder if it's any good?? Thanks a bajilliion for visiting me. *hugs* I love you guys so much...and I'm sorry for my lack of commenting on just being here in general. I hope you don't hate me! T__T I do my best, which isn't very good these days. Thanks again, and have a good couple of days!

Warning: thanks, morning/allergies, fitness flop, allergist visit...wp, & sorry

Thank you, thank you! Thanks for all the comments. *hugs* I'm still in shock that I've been getting so many. O__o I'm sure that streak will be stopped soon enough! My lack of commenting on your sites will probably catch up with me! I'm so sorry!! Anyhoo, thanks for the comments on how I've been feeling. Actually, I'm NOT SICK, it's just my allergies...which make me feel like I'm sick...I think. Shizuka, Alex, Lindsay dear!!, auroraborealis, asialonewolfe & others I'm sure, thank you for visiting again. ^_^ It's been a long time! I'm always happy to see familiar faces. Ha-harumi, too...and lazyliz...and well, a lot of people. ^^;; Thanks for the wallpaper comments and all, too!! WELL...I still feel miserable; how about that? I'm still blowing my nose non-stop. I'm pretty sure it's just my wretched allergies since I haven't been able to take my meds for a week...if I were SICK, then my throat would be hurting, too, which is luckily isn't. But I hate blowing my nose!! T__T I totally disrupt my classes with it...like math, which I just had. I could barely focus on the lecture. *rolls eyes* Oh well. Madii sits behind me, and she never pays attention. XD She's always drawing! But she had to take notes today since she never learned this stuff. logs. You know? Logarithms? Anyhoo, umm, I'm tired...and sore...and I'll now talk about yesterday! Yesterday was a horribly miserable day! I hated it! Ok, from the beginning! I had health class, and if you remembered what I said, we had to do fitness tests: sit and reach, sit ups, push ups, and the dreaded MILE-RUN (though on a treadmill). *sigh* So everything was going alright...until it was my turn to get on the treadmill. You see, we only have 4, so everyone had to wait their turns! I was worried about that because there was only 10 minutes left in class...and I can't run a 10-minute mile. So anyhoo, first we had to put this heart rate counter thing around our chest (very uncomfortable), and then we get could on...so things were going okay for a while...but then I got to over half a mile (like .7) and 12 minutes already passed...now then, here's the crappy part, I almost collapsed! T__T I felt so sick--I was dizzy and nauseous and had this weird fuzzy feeling all over...so my teacher came over and helped me to the bathroom. I luckily didn't have to finish the mile, but I felt terrible. It was probably because of my allergies. I couldn't breathe well through my nose so not enough oxygen was getting to my brain! -__-; Umm, so after a while, I left...and struggled to the cafe to eat my snack. It was SOOOo cold outside, and I felt like collapsing out there, too. So after that, I had history class...I had to suffer through my teacher's poor Chinese and Japanese pronunciations [he did better than I thought though...]. I wish that teachers (history mainly) would bother to look up pronuciations of the cultures that they're talking about. *sigh* It makes them sound stupid when they're saying names ALL wrong!!! And since no one else knows better, they don't care. Argh, so then after classes...it was time for my allergist appointment, which I'll say right off was USELESS. It was filled with suffering for nothing. The first thing that was shocking was when the nurse took my blood pressure! It was abnormally low. Like LOW...like "you shouldn't be conscious right now" low. ^^;; That was worrisome, but for some reason they didn't care too much about it. I explained that it was probably from my anemic attack this morning during health...but yeah, I thought they'd think more about that. I hope I'm ok now! O__o Um, and then came the kicker...the "scratch tests." No way. They aren't SCRATCHES. They're like 30+ little SHOTS!! And me + shots = panic. I was hyperventilating, feeling dizzy, sick to my stomach...etc...it was horrible...we had to take breaks in between each row (5 or 6 rows of 6 shots on each arm)...it hurt a lot. I'm very sensitive and paranoid about needles... Sorry, this is taking a while, but um...so after the waiting time for the results, there was nothing. Only a couple of the test points showed up...so that means that my allergies aren't distinguishable. They aren't "oh, you're allergic to dogs/cats; here, we'll give you a seasonal shot for the pollen allergies..." NO. The doctor just suggested the same crap I've BEEN DOING. *sigh* No help. All that pain for nothing...and I'm still blowing my nose like crazy and feeling miserable. Oh, he did suggest, "Maybe it's milk? Maybe you should go a week without milk products?" Ahaha...yeah right. That wont' happen...milk etc. makes up the majority of my diet... Blah, blah, blah, I got home...Corey came home from another trip of video game shopping. -__- He "got me" the 3rd Phoenix Wright game. "Ooh, a gift??" NO...I had to pay him the $20 because he said he's poor since he doesn't have a job. Yeah, well, get a job! Instead, he extorts from his sister! Ugh. Anyhoo, I made a new wallpaper and submitted it to animepaper.net, too. It was accepted [soo happy about that; didn't think they would!]!! ^__^ Just a bit ago so I don't have a rating or many downloads yet. But I do have several downloads here! I'm surprised! It could almost be featured, and Utena wallpapers are never featured. ^^;; So it probably won't happen...but I'd love for you guys to comment/download on it if you want. I know lots of you are offended by shoujo-ai/yuri so that's fine if you don't. Hosted By theOtaku.com. I'm sorry this is taking so long!!! I just had a lot of things to talk about. I'm sorry about not commenting AT ALL yesterday...yeah, no one. Today I'll do my best to get to you guys. I might not post this weekend! Probably not tomorrow, and maybe not even sunday...I'll just see. Sorry. *hugs hugs hugs* I'll end this post now...no amv!! I know, lots of reading and no reward. ^^; Well, thanks for visiting me, and have a good weekend! P.S. My arms still hurt.

Warning: thanks, allergies, classes, yesterday, wp, tomorrow, & amv

*sneezes* ARGH!!!! T___T I am...well, crap. I'll talk about that later! First, the thanks! *hugs* Though I don't think anyone would want to hug me at the moment. XD For fear of germs! Thanks so much for the comments. I got soo many!! O__o That's the most I've gotten in a while; I'm so surprised since I haven't been visiting as much...yet somehow people still love me. *hugs* Thank you so much. And it's because so many visited that haven't in a while, like Koten, filo, Joselyn, DD, Grif, Nana...and others, too. So many. *huggles* No need to apologize; I'm just happy to hear from you all again! Thanks for the kind words on everything. And Shishou and Driffter, I thought it was funny that both of you mentioned the band Farenheit, thinking I was talking about it. XD Never even heard of them! Anyhoo, thanks my sweeties. ^_^ Ahem! So as I was starting out...I've been sneezing and blowing my nose like crazy! I'm so incredibly allergically miserable right now. To the MAX. T__T Ugh. I need more Kleenex (aka tissues)...I've already used so many, and I've only just had math class! *rolls eyes and slumps* I never thought my allergy medicines worked at all until now [since I haven't been able to take them for a week because of my allergist appointment tomorrow]...yes, now that they're gone, I truly appreciate them. ^^; The past few days I've just been horrible! Not just blowing and sneezing, but my God, the itching! Itchy eyes, nose, and even head. Bleh. And all of this certainly doesn't help with my sleeping predicament...when will I be able to fall asleep naturally again??? Bleh, anyhoo...so I just had math class...you know, even though I type about it almost every post, I don't feel like I even have that class. XD Since it's my first class I'm really tired, and since it's math...I just don't pay much attention. ^^; I totally feel like I'm not even taking math! Probably not a good thing! And because of the days I post, you guys don't get to hear about my French and English classes much, do you? So I'll quickly mention those! French has been easy and fun like last semester, same class/teacher so that's probably my favorite class again. English is going ok, but it's a pain yet again because: 1.my teacher loves (same teacher as before) giving a lot of writing assigments every class 2.that annoying guy from before is still in it 3.this semester is a research based course...aka a research paper is in store. *sigh* and 4.Um...yeah. There's one good thing! I've made a new friend. :3 Her name is Meg, and she's really nice and cool. I was afraid I wouldn't have any friends in it... Let's see, now that I've talked about those monday/wednesday classes...I shall talk about yesterday. Health is a major pain. I can't stand that class, and it's going to be even more annoying! Tomorrow we have to meet in the fitness room [dressed for gym and all] to do "fitness exams." You know/remember those? Yeah, like the "sit and reach", pull ups, etc. *sigh* Not good...I so don't want to dress differently for the day just because of a stupid health class!! And this isn't even one of the "activity days". >> I swear, it's just like 13th grade! What college forces gym-like exams on students?? So that class was just boring and annoying...then I had lunch and then history. History was just the same, lecture and note-taking...then I had my 3-hour long graphic design class. It wasn't as bad this time because we actually got to be on the computer doing stuff. We were experimenting with Adobe Illustrator and did our first project...it's all quite simple and a review for me now, but I'm hoping to learn more things. At least it didn't feel like torture yesterday...also because I had a granola bar to eat during our 5 minute break. XD Soo...then I could go home. I had time to myself because Corey had his acupuncture appointment, yayness. I made/finished a wallpaper [that L one I mentioned before...] and then did homework. I had an English essay, and guess what I wrote on? The effects of not sleeping!! I know that topic very well now...unfortunately. :( I liked writing it though...and I loved my theme/title. "A through Y." You know why? Because insomniacs can't "catch any Z's." Hahah. I thought I was pretty creative there...so anyhoo, here's the wallpaper, so kindly featured. Thanks. :3 Please download/comment if you want! Hosted By theOtaku.com. Oww, my wrist is hurting...this desk I'm at in the library is digging into me. ^^; Anyhoo, oh, tomorrow is going to suck...because of that health class and because I have that allergist appointment! I hope that he'll help me. PLEASE. T__T These allergies are too much!! And maybe he'll do something about my sleep as well. So yeah, no post tomorrow...and I'll do my best to visit today [many sorries again if I can't do much]. So here's an amv...yeah, it's that Utena one I really like. ^^; I watched it again, and it gave me some inspiration for a next wallpaper! I'm hoping to make an Utena wallpaper with the title being a section of the lyrics from the song "Dare." Anyhoo... Ok, I think this post is long enough, no? ^^;; Sorry if it's too long! And sorry for my lack of commenting. *hugs* Thank you all so much for visiting me when you do though. You're the best. Have a good couple of days!

Warning: thanks, today, animepaper, yesterday, & sorry

*hugs hugs* Thanks so much for the comments everyone! Yes, I'm posting two days in a row. XD That seems to be a rarity these days, though it didn't used to be! Anyhoo, I love you guys and your comments...I could NEVER leave here!! *hugs* NEVER. You're all too sweet. :3 Thanks for the encouragement and sweet words in general about everything. Stixx, I think your comment got cut off...after the >< face. ^^; Um, Little Birdie, it's been forever! I wish you wouldn't disappear so much. RMC, sorry for worrying you, too! A lot of you feel the same way about animepaper, and some of you differ...but yeah, it is a really strict place there. Anyhoo, thank you for everything. Yes, it's Monday, Martin Luther King Jr. day here in the US...and I HAVE school. -__- Totally lame. Like every other school has off! Oh well...it doesn't matter...though I sure would've liked to sleep longer and stay in my warm bed! It's the coldest day of the year so far today, and it's terrible. Sure, it may be bright and sunny out, but it's freezing!! The high is only supposed to be 20 degrees (Farenheight, which is probably spelled wrong). Brrrrr. So yeah, um, I'm tired, but that isn't anything new. I just had math class, and I was dying. >< I really can't stand how SO many people smoke. *sigh* It's disgusting, and it really aggravates my allergies...this girl just smoked before coming to class, and she sat next to me...I was holding in sneezes, and I was blowing my nose a lot. The stench was like smoke and FISH together. Ugh!!! Horrid! I couldn't wait to get out of that room...and into the...cold? Yeah. T__T Ok, so, I'm going to talk a bit about Animepaper now. My wallpaper was accepted!! Isn't that exciting? I totally didn't think they would...but you see, they have this really strict way of "rating" wallpapers, which is just grading them. I don't know how they're graded, but MAN. When I first checked out my wallpaper there, to see that it was accepted, I saw that I had a D+ on it. XD Hahaha. I actually thought that was funny. Now I have a C rating though...so I'm happy about that. I never thought I'd be happy about such a grade. But yeah, I don't think I'll submit much more there. I love yous guys too much...though I gotta say, more people download things there than here! I already have double the amount on my Ritsuka wallie there. But eh, it doesn't matter. If you have an account there, visit me. Oh, and one more thing about it--they really like wallpapers with a bajillion resolutions. That's a problem for me because I only make the minimum...^^;; Hmm...so I guess I'll talk about yesterday...first off, I'm sorry for, AGAIN, barely any commenting. I seriously haven't had enough time lately. :( And I feel bad for posting (like today) when I probably won't have enough time to visit back. *sigh* Sorry. Anyhoo, well, it wasn't such a BAD day...except that is sorta was. Make sense? No? Doesn't to me either. Well, I haven't been chipper lately at all, and let's just say my brother always makes things worse. And it's always over the littlest things...he acts like a spoiled brat of an 8 year old instead of the [almost] 27 year old that he is. -__-; So anyhoo, he got mad at me for this remark I made to him about him smelling. I didn't say it in a mean way; I just told him that because it was the truth! Put deodorant on or something!! I said that the night before, and it was ok, but I told my mom about it, too...so she said something...so then Corey was like, "What? So now you tattle to mom about how I smell??" Blah, blah, blah...he said more mean things to me and crap...and I wanted to cry. I ended up shouting some self-depricating words ["I hate myself" "I suck"] and went off to make lunch... I wanted to cry, but then again, I want to cry a lot these days. XD Umm, there was that akward silence between my brother and me for a portion of the day, but then we were back to normal...but I still hate how he treats me. *sigh* Anyhoo, sorry! I know, that isn't a big deal, but whatever...so the rest of the day was just usual...I had a lot of homework to do though, and that's why I barely commented, and I didn't make a new wallpaper or anything. And tonight I'll have a lot of homework as well...*sigh* This week is going to suck, but next week will probably suck more. This thursday I have my allergist appointment, and next thursday, I have to get those cavities filled... Well, I guess I don't have anything else to talk about. This isn't a very interesting post! Bah! Oh well. Sorry, but no amv today. I don't feel like looking for one...if you're so terrible bored, then feel free to look through my older posts! ^_^ *hugs* I need to go eat now...then I have French class and then English. Bleh. So yeah, have a great couple of days! Thanks so much for visiting me. [was this post shorter? I sure think so...sorry if you like my longer posts!]

Warning: thanks, sleep, animepaper, bleh, movie, e-card, visiting/sorry, & amv

Thanks for all of the comments, dearies. *hugs* You're so sweet. ^^ I didn't get to read them all though...since I've been sort of wasting my time doing other things! Other things that I shall explain later. Anyhoo, welcome to my new friend tenshihoshino! So nice to meet you! Thanks for commenting!! ^_^ And welcome back to anyone that hasn't visited in a while [sorry I'm not being specific]. Lys, I appreciated you coming back and posting a longer comment. It sucks that both of us are in the same boat with not having monday off! Argh. Anyhoo, thanks for the comments on my wallpaper and all of the other sweet things said. You're such great friends. Oh, and also, Perios, I'll miss you. :( My friend Perios has decided to leave theO. So sad. :( Thanks again. Well, hello there. I actually wasn't going to post today, but I decided to do so anyway because, well, I didn't warn you ahead of time! I didn't post yesterday, but I didn't want to freak anyone [if there'd be anyone] out by not posting today either. Anyhoo, so I'm still sleeping via sleeping pills. I think too much about how I'm going to sleep or if I'm asleep yet that I can't sleep. I just want to shut my brain off at night. -__- Um, I had lots of weird and pretty bad dreams. In one of them, I was crying a lot...I've been having really scary and tear-inducing dreams a lot lately. But this one was because there were bees/hornets in the house! As you may know, I'm scared to death of bees/hornets/wasps/etc. ^^;; So yeah. I also had dreams of things trying to shoot me, and one where I was watching Winnie the Pooh, but it was quite different...I've never heard Pooh say the "S" word before. ^^; Ok, so...what was I wasting my time with before? Well, Animepaper.net, of course. *rolls eyes* I stupidly decided to get an account there a couple nights ago to try and submit my wallpapers. If you didn't know already, that place is for ultra super amazing wallers and also filled with equally stuck-up and strict mods. Hence me NOT wanting to get an account there before...so I finally thought I was good enough and got one though. >> I'm regretting that. I still haven't heard back about my wallpaper [I submitted the newest one, that Loveless one] yet...no critiques or comments in the Session Zero (a place to go first before submitting) so I just decided to submit anyway. If they reject it, fine; I'm never going back there again!! If they accept it, fine; I'll then have one wallpaper in my gallery, but I'm not going back. I like it here on MO...it's filled with much nicer people [thanks Olivia for warning me against that place anyway!], and it's ok to submit things here if you're an amateur! That place just seems to up-tight and intimidating with its grading system and all. Because of that site, silly me, I was getting all depressed yesterday. I was thinking about how I suck at making wallpapers and how I shouldn't have bothered, etc. I think those doubts have left me now...I'm just like "whatever" about it. I haven't even gotten a rejection yet so I don't know if it's that bad or not. XD But anyhoo, I was just really depressed yesterday! Depressed about everything it seemed. I wanted to cry each time I talked, but of course I didn't. I actually ended up telling my mom last night that I haven't been happy lately...but my reasoning was because of my lack of sleep. I didn't tell her everything...but that's more than I usually do. Yesterday we went to the movie theater and saw "No Country for Old Men." I think that's what it's called anyway. ^^;; I never heard of it before, but my mom said it was supposed to be good. Action, violence, suspense...so ok, we went. I must say that it was really GOOD!! EXCEPT for the ending. There was pretty much a total lack of ending. I didn't see one and no one else did either! It just ended as if you stopped mid-sentence. No conclusion, no sense of closure. It just...ended. Everyone in the theater was dead silent, in awe. We were all probably thinking the same thing: WTF. Dead silence as the credits began to roll and then the grumblings and groans of "what the heck was that?" ensued. XD So yeah. It was based on a novel...but did the novel end that way, too?? Jeez! It had such great action and suspense all throughout the movie, and then they go and ruin it with the "ending." ^^; After the movie, we got food and went home! Two days ago, I made an e-card. I haven't made a new wallpaper yet because I'm sort of recovering in the sense that...um, my self-esteem is recovering! ^^; I was working on an L wallpaper last night but quit because it wasn't turning out well. But yeah, here's the e-card. It was featured, and some of you have already commented on it. :3 Thanks! Hosted By theOtaku.com. Ok...sooo...I shouldn't have posted today!! I have a good amount of homework that I need to do today, and that means I probably won't get to visit many of you. :( Yesterday I think I only got to one or 2 people. ^^; I'm so sorry. I hope you guys forgive me. :( I've been really terrible lately. I haven't spent as much time on MO that I used to [about a year ago]. I think my being depressed has a lot to do with it as well. I just feel like not doing anything, and that includes commenting. I'm really sorry. I'll try to get to some today...and I AM posting tomorrow, but I still have school. Yeah. It's absolutely retarded that I don't have MLK day off...even though every other school in the US does! And my brother D has off work, too! Ugh. *rolls eyes* I'm not looking forward to school this semester at all... Sorry, I've been ranting a lot, haven't I? Well, I just need to get it out of me. Sweetdevil has been subjected to even more ranting that deals with AP and wallpapers in general so I'm sorry to her! *hugs her* Anyhoo, I shall bring this to a close. I suppose I'll go find an amv. Here's that awesome Death Note amv entitled "Seigi" (Justice), which I believe was featured in theO's news a few months ago. It's really good, but it contains spoilers to the max so just a warning! Enjoy! Thanks for visiting me! *hugs* I so don't deserve it. ^^; I'm really sorry. Thanks again...sorry if I don't comment much today (stupid homework), and I hope you all enjoy your long weekend if you have one!
