Warning: Thanks, mini Japanese lesson,more laudry, death of a croc hunter,& school tomorrow *sob*
*hugs all y'all* ("y'all"?? Why?? *laugh*) Thankies for the comments!! I especially would like to thank the people that commented even a day or 2 after I posted. ^^ Cause, obviously, MO wasn't working...like 2 days ago, starting late-ish afternoon I couldn't get on! And same with most of yesterday until evening! ^^; That was sooo weird...I wonder what happened? Well, it's good that it's back though! Even though...actually...I would've liked it to not come back until like tomorrow or something. ^^; Because yesterday, I had hardly any computer time, and today is the same. So I wouldn't have had to feel bad about not visiting!! *sob* Anyhoo, Yug...you might've had the longest comment yesterday! Again! But Rachel (mewmewlover55) came in a close second! ^^ Angel Asuka, to explain your query on "sumimasen" (and yes, I've seen Furuba! ^^) and "gomen"...I shall write about it in the next paragraph!

Angel Zakuro's mini Japanese lesson! Part 1: the differences between "sumimasen", "gomen", and "gomennasai"! ^^ Teehee...well, sorta like a lesson. If you already know, feel free to skip this paragraph! Ok, "sumimasen" is one of the most versatile words in Japanese! It can mean "excuse me", "thanks", and "sorry". Say you're walking down the street in Japan, and you're lost! You want to get someone's attention...so try saying "sumimasen"! Or say you've just bumped into someone by accident, "sumimasen" works! Or say someone just did a favor for you...and you sorta feel bad about it, but you still want to say thank you...say "sumimasen". ^^ Oh the wonderfulness of "sumimasen"! Next is "gomen" and "gomennasai". Both mean "sorry/I'm sorry". It's just that "gommenasai" is a more formal way of saying it. Don't use "gomen" if you're talking to someone of higher authority than you, or someone you don't really know, ok? *laugh* Well, I hope I explained that fairly well! This ends Angel Zakuro's mini Japanese lesson Pt.1! ^^

Well...now that that's out of the way...back to my life! *sigh* My...life...ugh...well, the past few days, that you haven't heard about, weren't that special. I cooked more, cleaned more, and did more laundry...even though we were in a panic the other day cause our laundry machine wouldn't work! Luckily, though, yesterday it started working again! Yay! So I got to do 2 more loads of laundry! Including my brothers' disgustingly stinky clothes! ^^; I don't mind laundry too much...but it's still stupid that what my dad said (everyone would do their own laundry) sure didn't come true. *sigh* Other than that, nothing exciting in my life. In other news, world-famous "Crocodile Hunter", Steve Irwin, died. It's very sad!! I'd watch his nature shows!! Him and his "Crikey!"...his Australian accent and amusing antics out in the wild with dangerous animals! Click on the link up there to read about his death. It was all cause of a stupid poisonous stingray...stabbing him in the heart. *sigh* It's so stupid when people die young...he was only 44 or something...and he had a kid and wife and everything!

Alrighty, now back to my life again! Tomorrow is the unfortunate day of my return back to school. *sob* NOOOOOO!!!! I'm really not looking forward to it...I'm scared and worried...and I'm really worried about my mom. Like I said in my last post, she gets depressed during these seasons, so she'll be even more lonely when I'm at school! I mean, come on! She'll be stuck in her room the whole time! She'll just have to go out and shop often or something...but really...who'll bring her stuff? Who'll be her pal?? *sob* I dont' want to go to school!! I didn't even get my stuff read yet (backpack and whatnot). Oh, and my mom's b-day is wednesday. I got her a gift already, and I was thinking of writing a poem for her as well. I was coming up with some last night...while trying to sleep like usual. I didn't write it down though. *sigh* I hope I can remember it long enough to write it down in a card or whatever!

Ok...I'll end this now...I fear that I might've made this post waaaaaay too long. Sorry!!! >< Really, I'm sorry! If I didn't do that Japanese lesson, it wouldn't have been so long! But it was interesting, right? ^^; *sigh* Well, I hope you all have a great day!! I'm sorry I can't visit anyone's sites!! I'll have to savor my last day of summer...though I'm sure I'll be worrying and drowning in my anxiety all day instead.
