. . . . . . . . .

Uh, hi! ^_^;; Heh, I guess it's pretty weird to see me around here. I thought I'd drop by before heading to bed, I couldn't stand not coming here for so long. I miss you all so much. But it's my own fault for not being here anyway... so... yeah. -_-;;

*sigh* I'm trying not to apologize so much, since I'm obviously getting back into that habit again, but I really am sorry for disappearing last week. I'm definitely feeling better now but I still feel horrible for not coming by. I know some people will say it's okay or that it's no big deal, but it means a lot to me that I am around. I've been away from myO for most of this year, even half of last year, and, well, I'm tired of that. I want to know how you guys are doing too. I joined theOtaku expecting nothing and I wound up with so many wonderful friends. That alone means greatly to me, yet here I am, not even bothering to say a simple "Hello" or a "Thank You". Everyone here is nothing short of incredible. You guys have just been so... awesome!

I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm sorry and thank you... for everything.

Gah! >_< I don't want to sound so depressed! I'm not, really! I just... want you guys to know how much you all mean to me. That's all.


Um, my head's all clear now, so I should be back soon. ^_^;; I don't want to mention any specific dates since I know I'll jinx myself, but mostly because I don't want to make empty promises. I'm hoping to be back very, very soon.

Hm... on a lighter note, though, I finally started running yesterday. It was quite refreshing, but I picked a bad hour to run. Apparently, 9 am on a summer day in Cali means it's 80 degrees outside already. ~_~ But it was still good. I also started doing my AP Biology work, and it wasn't as horrible as I thought. ^_^ I'm so thankful that my Science class went over the basics before the school year ended, otherwise I would've had no clue with what I was reading. Hehe. The icky part about... er... yesterday was that I had a slight headache because of the heat and I think working on my Biology packet made it worse. *lol* I couldn't resist an hour-long nap after that. ^_^;; The rest of the day went by okay. Nothing special happened.

I'm probably boring you guys to death here! Hehe. I babbled on for a while there. Anyway, I'm done. I always seem to cut my posts in the middle or something. ^_^;; But there's nothing more to say, except take care and have a fantastic day! Thanks again!

[random thought bubbles:] (You can skip this if you want. I'm just thinking... ^_^) I'm running out of anime to watch! O_o I thought it wouldn't be possible. *lol* ^^;; Hm, I guess I've seen most of the good shows already. I can't find anything else on Animesuki, except for Yakitate!! Japan, which SG recommended. I still haven't started that. >_> As for licensed ones, I'm not even sure I know any good ones out. Still debating with myself on Kyou Kara Mao, though. ^_^ I read some reviews on it and it's getting me interested, but I'm not quite sure yet. I've had my eye on the Chrno Crusade DVDs for a while, so I'm thinking of getting that too. Other than that, I have nothing. = >__< =

Ahh, the randomness.

Thanks for reading! Ja ne!

Hi guys. How are all of you doing? Hopefully everyone's okay. I apologize for not being around for more than a week now. I tried to come last weekend but I forgot my family and I had to go to San Diego. We left on Saturday and came back late the day after. Then I forgot that it was the 4th on Monday and my Mom wanted to go to the beach to watch some fireworks display. We had around 5 hours to spare before the show, I think, so my Mom decided to get my sister's birthday present before we left.

We drove two hours to get to the beach and arrived there late for the show. Since it was only for 20 minutes, we had to rush to a place where we could see the fireworks clearly. Unfortunately for us it was a cloudy night, and from where we were standing, the clouds covered up most of the fireworks. *sigh* It was such a frustrating evening. Had to let it out. My Mom getting irritated because everything didn't work out the way she hoped it would just added to the frustration.

I guess that set off my entire week. I just felt so tired and stressed. I wanted to start my training too, but my mind was so preoccupied with different things, I didn't know what to do next. I couldn't get out of bed even though I was awake, I was annoyed every morning, I couldn't even use the computer for ten minutes without getting worked up about how slow everything was. *deep sigh*

I'm truly sorry. I wanted to clear my head first before coming back. I said I didn't need a break anymore, but it seems I actually do. I'm feeling much better now, though I'm not so sure it'll last much longer. Aside from all this emotional pain, if you can call it that, I've been feeling horrible lately. My body's just not doing well.

..... Ach, listen to me, babbling on like this. Gomen. I guess I really needed to get all of this off my chest. I shall take my leave now. I hope to be back soon and out of this... slump. If I missed any birthdays while I was away, I'm sorry. I'll try to make it up as soon as possible.

Again, I trust everyone is doing a lot better. *hugs really tightly* I miss you all very much. Take care and have a wonderful weekend ahead.

Thanks for reading. Ja ne. (I'm sorry.)

*hugs everyone really, really tightly* ^___^ Thank you so much! I'm feeling a lot better now. Yesterday is done, I don't have to worry about that anymore. There's going to be more beautiful days in exchange for that. *hugs tightly again* Thank you. You guys are the best! ^.^

*takes deep breath* Yup, I'm definitely feeling much better. It was great to just be able to sleep on the whole thing. ^_^ However that's enough of a break for me. I like having time for myself, but I've been away from myOtaku for so long, I think I've had enough break time to last me a while. ^_^ Hehe. Expect me around as much as possible.

I apologize for not coming earlier today, though. My parents' friends' kids came over and they kind of took over the computer. ^_^;; I would have used the other one we have here, but my cousin was selfishly on it for most of the day. (She just left a few minutes ago.) Whenever a computer would be free, my sister was there to use it. She just got out of school yesterday, so I have extra competition for the computers in this house. ^_^;; The two laptops that are available would be a choice, except there's no internet connection for both of them. *sigh* Such is my luck today, I'm afraid.

Ah, hehe. That was quite long. ^_^ Gomen. So yeah, that's how things are today. That's why I wasn't here and why I won't be able to comment now. T_T The youngest of the kids is waiting for me to finish so he can play. I don't want to upset him. It's for my own good too. Sorry. ^_^;;

Anyway, I guess I'll be going. Thanks again, you guys! *hugs* Take care! ^.^ Have a wonderful day! Happy Birthday to my fellow July celebrants!!! ^__^ Let us all have fantastic birthdays!

[random thought bubbles:] I've seen 13 episodes of Full Moon wo Sagashite so far and it's certainly an entertaining watch. ^_^ Somewhat childish, but still quite humorous. I especially like how they mixed in Shinigamis (Death gods) to Mitsuki's, the main character's, struggles to be known as a singer. Good fun. I'm looking forward to more. ^^

Thanks for reading! Ja ne!

Good morning, everyone. I hope you are all off to a great start. I stopped by because I wanted to say that I won't be coming around today. There were just too many things going on this morning. I don't really want to talk about it. Let's just leave it at that.

I'm terribly sorry that I'm choosing to do this, after being gone so long, but I don't want to ruin anyone else's day with how I'm feeling. This has nothing to do with yesterday, although I very much appreciate what everyone said. Thank you for being such wonderful friends. *hugs really tightly* You guys are the best.

I need that rest today more than ever, I suppose. I woke up to a horrible morning. I even thought I wouldn't be able to come here because my internet's acting all crazy.

Anyway, I'll get going now. *hugs again* Thank you for everything. I'm sure I'll be back to my old self by tomorrow. I'd miss you guys too much if I'm not back after a while again. Heh.

Sorry this turned out to be long. I wasn't planning to. Well, take care, you guys. Have a beautiful day. I'll be back to commenting tomorrow. (Oh, on that note, I apologize if I did not get to your site yesterday. I'll make it up tomorrow.)

[EDIT:] I forgot to mention that I'm going to postpone the new layout until next Monday. I had to do some last minute changes.

Thanks for reading. Ja ne.

*deep sigh* I think I'm stressed. I'm not sure if I really am, but yeah... ~_~ I don't even know why. It may have something to do with some posts I read, but I'm pretty sure it's more than that.

I hate this...

Surprise, surprise. I skipped my morning run again. I just wasn't feeling too well. And I woke up late too. I guess I knew I wouldn't be able to get up early, so last night I decided to just take a break this entire week, and then I'll start my training next week. That should suffice for my lack of enthusiasm. Although I was really hoping to start as soon as possible. Oh well...

>__< I'm so sorry you guys. I shouldn't be feeling this way. I'm just getting more and more annoyed with the way I'm acting. *sigh*

This is going to be short. I'm not up for much anymore. I did get to sites though, so at least I'm done with that. I think I'll just rest for a while or maybe sleep this whole thing off.

*hugs everyone tightly* Gomen. I'm sure it'll go away by tonight. I just need some rest. Take care, you guys. Have a wonderful day, okay?

Thanks for reading. Ja ne.

*feels triumphant* Yay! I finally finished my first round! ^.^ I've commented on the sites of the early birds of myO. Hehe. I'm so happy! I'm really glad to be back. I just missed you all so much. *hugs everyone tightly*

There's not much to say really. I still think it's too early for me to be online. ^_^;; But I can't beat getting done this early either. It's fun to comment in the morning because I'm not pressured to make it before 9 pm. *different time zone*

Anyway, the only thing that's making this day horrible is the fact that I skipped my morning run. It's part of my volleyball training, which I should've started today, but I was too lazy to get out of bed at 7 am and start running on the sidewalk. >_< *sigh* (That's why I mentioned wishing me luck. ^_^;;) Hopefully I can get my lazy self out of bed early tomorrow so I can run. *crosses fingers*

Next on my to-do list today is that AP Bio packet. But guess what? I'm too lazy to start that as well. >__< *mumbles* Maybe it's because I'm hungry. *haven't eaten breakfast yet* ^_^;; That or it's because of my teeth. They've been hurting like crazy all night. T__T

Ah, gomen, gomen. ^_^ I guess there was more to talk about than I thought. Hehe. That's about it, though. Take care, you guys! Have a wonderful day! Keep enjoying your summer vacation! ^.^

[random thought bubbles:] I'm hating the purple-ness of my site. ~_~ Only 2/3 more days until the layout change. ^_^

Konnichiwa! ^_^ Guess who's back? Hehe. Yep, I'm officially on summer break and enjoying every bit of it!

Okay, first of all, I'm so glad to be back! ^.^ I missed you guys so much! *hugs everyone really tightly* I hope you're all having a blast and that everyone's doing well! *more hugs*

I just got back from the dentist. That alone should be horror enough, ne? *laughs* Anyway, I'm getting a tooth pulled out soon, so I'm kind of dreading it. And the dentist put little rubber bands on eight of my teeth, so my mouth feels very uncomfortable right now. >_> That's the not-so-good part of the first day of my summer vacation. ^_^;; Aside from that though, everything's awesome!

Now another pointless, but I feel like I have to mention, statement is that I'm training for the volleyball team this summer. I've made it through 3 cuts (so many girls tried out so they had to make cuts), and the final screening is on the week before school starts (September 6th!!! T_T). Basically, it means I have to get in shape for the final screening or else I blow up my chance of getting into the team. ^_^ *sarcastic* No pressure at all. And another thing, I'm also hoping to get into AP Biology next school year, so I'm working on a huge packet for that this summer too. ^_^;;

I think I'm making all this sound too hard, but I'm pretty sure it won't be. I just have to keep myself from procrastinating on the packet and being lazy with my training. ^^ Wish me luck! *laughs*

The reason I had to say all this is because I might not be able to be around at certain days. Believe me, after not being here for almost an entire year (something like that), this is bugging me badly, but I know it'll happen, so I hope you guys won't be mad. ^_^;;

I start my training tomorrow morning. I'll rest a little after that, because I'm sure it'll be a shock to my system once I get going with this, and then I'll come here. ^_^ Maybe I can squeeze in my AP Bio stuff at night. Leaving some time in the afternoon for me to catch up on my anime and whatnot. ^^ Sounds about right... right?

Goodness, I'm probably boring you guys to death here. Gomen! I'm done anyway. ^_^ Oh, and I hope no one minds if I skip the commenting today. My teeth are hurting right now and it has taken the joy out of this day. I'm really sorry. I'll start tomorrow! I promise! ^.^ *hugs everyone again* Take care, you guys! Have a wonderful week ahead! ^______^

[random thought bubbles:] Look out for a layout change in July! ^.^ Hee hee.

Konnichiwa, minna-san!! ^__^ *runs up and hugs everyone tightly* Aw! I missed you guys so much! Only three more days until I get back to being a regular here. ^_^;; *deep sigh* Hehe. Technically, school ends on the 27th, but today's my last day because, one, there's no point in going to school when there's hardly any people, and two, I have a dentist appointment that day. ^_^ Coincidence, no? *laughs*

Ahem, anyway, it's really nice to be back. I've been away far too long. I can't wait to go to everyone's sites soon. ^^ I hope you guys have been doing well. I trust that all your summer breaks are off to a fantastic start too. Oh, and to the graduates, CONGRATULATIONS! ^_^

Let's see, what else have I been up to? I've been keeping up with my anime and manga stuff, but I'm going to watch/read them once summer officially starts for me. ^_^ (I'm guessing it's on Tuesday. *lol*) So yeah. Other than that, not much has been happening on my side of the world. ^^

Hm... I really can't think of anything else to say. I'm just hoping to get back here as soon as possible. ^_^ Can't wait to see you all again! *hugs tightly* Take care, you guys! Have a fantastic weekend!

[random thought bubbles:] I'm thinking of watching Full Moon wo Sagashite. Should be something. Hehe. ^_^ I love the art, its gorgeous, judgement's waiting on the story line. (I know its not worth talking about, just wanted to fill this space. ^^;;)

*sneaks in* Hello!! ^__^ Hee hee. How are you guys? I hope everyone's doing okay these last few weeks of June. Just a little more until summer vacation! ^.^ w00t! I only have finals week to go then I'm done! My, my, how time flies by. ^^ I can't wait until its all over. I miss you all so, so much! *runs up and hugs everyone really, really tightly*

And just in case you're wondering why I'm here, well, I just felt like it. ^_^;; Hehe. I have a bit of free time today since we got out of school early. I'm still pressed for time, though. There's just a lot of things going on tomorrow. >_> *sigh* But anyway, it was very nice to get a chance to stop by. ^_^

Oh yeah! Thank you so much for all the wonderful comments. *hugs everyone again* I love you guys! =^___^= I'm greatly looking forward to seeing all of you this summer! (Not literally, but yeah. ^_^;; Hehe.)

Okie, um, I think that's about everything today. School was okay, nothing much happened. ^_^ Ah, before I forget, and I know I'm pretty late with this, Happy Birthday to all June celebrants! ^.^ I hope those who have celebrated their birthdays had a fantastic time! Those who are about to celebrate it or are celebrating it today, have tons of fun! ^___^



Rawr! I really need to get going. T_T See you all very soon! *one more big hug* ^^ I miss you guys! Have an awesome last week/s of school! Take care!

[random thought bubbles:] I have to be honest, I haven't seen Ghost in the Shell until recently. Not the reruns, but the episodes leading up to the ending. I recorded from the "Re-View" episode, I believe, all the way until the end. I must say, GitS ranks, for me, as the most intellectual anime by far. It's just amazing. The art is superb, storyline is clearly magnificent, what more can I say? ^_^ Yep.

Hi, guys! ^_^ *runs up and hugs everyone really tightly* I miss you all so much! I haven't been here in 2 weeks and I haven't visited anyone's sites in... forever!!! T_T I'm so sorry about that.

Anyway, I just wanted to say that I won't be around for some time. 5-6 weeks tops. Just in time for summer vacation. ^_^ Basically, I'll be back when school ends. Not that it changes anything, really. I mean, I'm not around most, if not all, of the time. (Gomen.)

So yeah, I'm posting a hiatus again. I'll miss all of you so much! I'll drop by for PM's and check up on theO for updates when time allows. ^_^ Other than that though, I can't say I'll be able to do anything else until June 27th. Again, I'm terribly sorry that I haven't commented on sites or even replied to guestbook entries (for the past 6 months now, I think). I promise to get to that as soon as possible.

[rant] This week is going to be a very hectic one. Another novel packet for my English class and I haven't done one bit of notes. Considering the book I read was 370+ pages long, I don't know how I'll be able to finish with the notes, and the rest, (study questions, worksheets, vocabulary, AND a final essay) by Friday. >_< Darn the procrastination! *deep sigh* [/rant]

Hee hee, sorry about that. ^_^;; Well, I better get going. I need to wake up early so I can start on that project. *sigh* Take care, you guys! Have a wonderful day / week / month / rest of the school year! ^.^ I love you all! Thank you very much for the continued support and for being such awesome friends. *hugs super tightly* I'll see you all again at the end of the school year! *more hugs*

[random thought bubble:] Samurai Champloo is brilliant!! ^__^ Been recording the episodes. I've seen the first one, and I must say, bravo to its creator! That ending was great and hilarious! (Couldn't help but laugh. ^_^) It's probably the best samurai anime in quite a while. Rurouni Kenshin was a classic, amazing, but this takes the cake for being totally creative and kick-ass. ^_^ Hehe.

Thanks for reading! Ja ne!
