Welcome to my site archives. 10 posts are listed per page.
Yeah, so.. It's finally over. It's really weird, actually. Would you like me to ramble on about what happened at State Science fair?! *excited look* ... Just kidding. You don't actually have to read the stuff below if you don't want to. lol ^^'
~~~~
Ok, so we left THURSDAY afternoon. Wolfblitz and I were the FIRST people to put our stuff on the mini bus. Yet somehow, the guys ended up getting the bus, so Wolfy and I had to yank our backpacks back out of the bus and drag them to the car, which the girls had to squish into. ^^" It wasn't that bad.
We finally got to the hotel and unloaded all of our crap from the back of the car and the rest of our stuff from the bus and lugged it up to the room. But, the guy's room wasn't ready, so they had to invade our room until theirs was ready. Not that this was a huge deal, because we were heading out for dinner anyway.
We went shopping. Wolfy, 'Gilbert Gal' , and I walked around and killed time in the market. I think the only thing we actually bought was ice cream and that awesome Thai fried rice. =d Yum. One box filled the three of us. Three times, too. XD Oh wait, I got a horrible lemonade too. Eh, whatever.
Then we went back to the hotel after shopping and eating fest. And we went swimming. That was somewhat fun.. and Wolfblitz and I hung out by the stairwell for like a half an hour. XD It was pretty fun. ^^
FRIDAY: We had to get up early. Ugh. And it turns out, I don't like hotel beds very much. Wolfy doesn't either, so she slept on the floor. ^^ Anyway, we went down to breakfast and then went to the Science Fair. SIX AND A HALF HOURS OF JUDGING. Oh God. Actually, that wasn't as bad as I would have figured. They told us to stay at our projects even /after/ we were done with our five judges. No one listened to that. XD We were all done after maybe.. four hours instead of six and a half. w00t.
We got free t-shirts too. w00t. lol, sorry. Had to put that in here.
Then, we all headed over to the banquet. That was actually pretty scary. The dancing there was either funny or horribly creepy. o_o ...XD Anyway, we left there and went back to the hotel. My feet were killing me at this point.
I took my shoes off as I was changing into my bathing suit to find... huge blisters on meh feet. T_T They hurt. And they were both open. And BRUISED. What the heck?! Anyway. I went swimming anyway. That was stupid. They burned like CRAZY!!
Wolfy and I went back upstairs and both took our showers and started making our beds (She was staying on the floor, I was putting the very comfortable chairs together to sleep on those. lol) and our roomies came back. ^^ We then got very sugar high (somehow, without sugar.. lol) and went insane. It was awesome...
SATURDAY: We could NOT wake up. XD It was hilarious. When we finally did, we had to run downstairs for breakfast. But luckily we were easily able to get our stupid stuff together so we could check out. We headed to the science museum and hung out there for a little bit. Then we all went to an omni-theater presentation of the Grand Canyon. Wolfy and I got sick because of that. Not Fun. But then we headed back to the Scifair and spent another two or three hours for the public viewing.
Then, we had the awards ceremony. It took TWO HOURS. x_x It felt like forever. Only one person from our school got a prize. XD Second place, and he was going on anyway. lol. Oh well.
So...
YES!!! I'M NOT GOING TO NEW MEXICO FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SCIENCE FAIR!! ^_^
Seriously, if I had, I would have stuck out so badly. XD I mean, Wolfy and I couldn't even understand half of the project names at the state fair. It was hilarious. XD We were reading them like.. "The something and effects of something on something.. The something something and something... what do these even mean?!" XD go us. lol
I dunno. I don't feel so good today.. not sick, really, just.. really drained today. x_x I just wanna take a nap or something. lol. Skip that whole "homework" thing. XD
Yeah, anyway. Not much to say. I didn't do too bad on one of the tests from last week. Yay. ^^ And our English teacher handed out flowers today for May Day. O_o It was weird. ^^"
And I have two major projects to work on right now. One in Geography, that happens to be due Thursday. x_x And the other in French, which is much more fun (even though it's part of our final exam! lol) and we get more time to work on it. It's not due for a looong time. w00t.
And let's see.. oh yeah. State Science Fair is this week.. oh wait, I mentioned that yesterday didn't I? God I'm losing it. x_x Sorry...
Just because it's a cute song.. ^^ (No lyrics today though)
Hey everybody.. sorry I haven't been on lately. ^^"
Honestly, nothing has really happened, which is pretty much the main reason for me not posting. Even after taking a break from posting, I don't know what to write. x_x I feel really bad.
Uh... let's see. So, yeah. Last week we had a bunch of tests. But I think I did okay overall.
This Thursday, after lunch, we're heading down to the capital for the State Science Fair. (It's Friday and Saturday ^^) It's gonna be crazy. And to be perfectly honest, if it weren't for the 6.5 hours of judging on Friday, I think States might actually be fun. XD I picture me and Wolfy getting very sugar high during our stay. XD Oh well. We deserve it. We've been working very hard with our new form of math/science/psychology work. (Don't ask.) Anyway, so yeah. And then we'll be going to an awesome science museum on Saturday uh.. before judging results are announced, I think. ^^" Yeah, so we'll be pretty busy.
I dunno what else to say.. I'm gonna post a song (in FRENCH!!) that I've been absolutely ADDICTED to. For no reason too.. XD
Valse de la Lune
by Ilaria Graziano/Yoko Kanno
Blanc ou noir comme toi je parts au loin
Avec l'espoir de changer le destin.
Bien que dans le corps l'âme embrase,
Dans l'obscurité la distance devient infinie.
Avec des jeunes vêtus en peau de bête,
On danse ensemble au milieu des tempêtes.
Un autre horizon se dissout
Dans la lumière des yeux qui veulent se reveiller.
Et, j'attend là,
Où rien bouge maintenant.
Même si je ne te vois pas
Je peux retrouver ce que l'on cherche dans la nuit,
Même si c'est très difficile
Je danserai mon chemin avec les loups.
Je sentirai la lumière sur ma peau,
Sin avoir peur de tes mauvaises côtès.
C'est la lune qui conduit la danse
Quand le soliel sera couché dans ton âme froide.
Je t'attend là,
Où rien bouge maintenant.
Où l'ombre dèploit tous ses voiles
Je peux retrouver ce que l'on cherche dans la nuit.
Même si c'est très difficile
Je danserai mon chemin avec les loups.
Même si je ne te vois pas
Je peux retrouver ce que l'on cherche dans la nuit,
Même si c'est très difficile
Je danserai mon chemin avec les loups.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In English!! ^^ -Translation from AnimeLyrics.Com-
White or black as I depart beyond you,
With the hope to change destiny.
Although in the body, the soul blazes,
In the darkness the distance becomes infinite.
With the youths dressed in the skin of beasts,
We dance together in the middle of tempests.
Another horizon dissolves
In the light of eyes that want to awaken.
And, I wait here,
Where nothing moves right now.
Even if I don't see you
I can regain what we seek in the night.
Even if it's really difficult,
I'll dance my path with the wolves.
I will feel the light on my skin,
If I'm not afraid of your bad side.
It's the moon that leads the dance
When the sun will set in your cold soul.
I wait for you here,
Where nothing moves right now.
Where the shade laments all its veils
I can regain what we seek in the night.
Even if it's very difficult
I'll dance my path with the wolves
Even if I don't see you
I can regain what we seek in the night.
Even if it's really difficult,
I'll dance my path with the wolves.
So, we had our test on To Kill A Mockingbird today. I really hope I did okay. x_x Tomorrow, we still have the test on the play on Helen Keller and we also now have a Chem Quiz! Nyar.. so much stuff!!
On the plus side, my friends and I have been circulating more manga (we tend to do that) so I have four manga in my possession that I have to finish reading, and when I'm done with that, I have another two coming to me! ^_^ w00t. So much manga!!
Oh, and yesterday, we had another Pocky Ramen Fest at school. Wolfy and Xuai brought in two packets of ramen each and Emiko and I brought in like.. 5 boxes of pocky. =d Yum! Pocky Ramen Fest is the greatest. We even went so insane as to come up with a Pocky Ramen Fest Day song, to the tune of the Badger Badger Badger Mushroom song. (Do you guys know what song I'm talking about? ^^") *shakes head laughing* Anyway yeah. That was the big thing yesterday.
Oh! Did anyone else see/hear about the planet outside of our solar system that scientists believe might be habitable? Pretty cool huh? Well, except for the fact that it's "relatively close" at like.. what was it.. 120 trillion miles away? XD I told that to my dad and he's like.. Yeah.. that's only about 1000 times farther than the sun. XD Niiice. Anyway, it's still wicked cool to think that it might be habitable. ^^
Today was really warm! It got up to 90, I think.. kinda unusual. Especially since it's supposed to drop back to 60 tomorrow. lol
And a few roads by our school were closed down this afternoon, because there was a brush fire. The buses all had to take different routes. Luckily, it didn't take too much longer.
We have so much stuff going on this week. A test tomorrow on vocabulary (which I don't have to take! hah!), a test Wednesday on To Kill A Mockingbird, a test Thursday on the play Miracle Worker, a somewhat large on-going project in Geography, finishing up a story in French, and finally, working on a small research thing in Chemistry. x_x God.. I'm SO glad I don't have to take the vocab test tomorrow. That makes things slightly easier. I can work on studying and other stuff while people are taking their tests. Yay!
Yeah, I got nothing else interesting to say, so.. I'm just gonna post the song that's been stuck in my head.. ^_^
*cough* Sorry. ^^"
So, yeah. Emiko, Wolfy, Xuai, and I all went to the Anime Con yesterday. We got up at like 6:00 (Well.. I woke up at 5:00 ^^" Not on purpose though!!) and we headed down to the station, to catch a subway. Then, we went to the convention center. And.. stood in the registration line for maybe.. 2 to 2 and a half hours. ^^" There were so many cool cosplay costumes there! I got a picture of a group of people dressed as the Host Club. ^^ Anyway, the dealer's room was amazing. (I was the last one to crack down and buy something.. but I think I bought the most. ^^" No, no, wait... Xuai and I bought the same amount of things, I think. Whatever. lol) And the Artist's Alley was Overwhelming. So.. much.. talent!! ^^ We didn't get any autographs though.. Greg Ayres wasn't there yesterday!! T_T *le sigh*
...We're already planning to go again next year. XD
Anyway, that's pretty much it. Hope everyone has a good weekend. ^^
No lyrics today, sorry... Melissa by Prono Graffiti. (One of the openings to FullMetal Alchemist, I do believe. ^^)
I had planned to finish sewing my costume today (Don't worry, I still will finish it tonight. ^^) BUT. I got a phone call this morning. It was Emiko. And we ended up skipping off to an Asian food store place, a Chinese buffet and Barnes and Noble. ^^ It was so much fun. We both ended up buying the 16th Fruits Basket. It was awesome. I also ended up getting the One X CD by Three Days Grace. ^^
HOMG.
I finished my costume. Finally. Personally, I don't think it's all that great.. *le sigh* I mean.. I only have the main robe.. no underrobe.. and it's way too big. And.. the obi is way too thin. But it'll do. ^^" And I'm rather happy, because I did it on my own. Sure, I had to improvise and I kinda screwed it up, but it'll work. 'Sides, Wolfy, Emiko, and Xuai can all help me arrange it so it looks good, right? ^^
~No song or questions today. It's to late to think of any. ^^" sorry..~
Alright, so I started sewing my kimono on my own. I feel really proud right now. I actually remember some of this stuff, and I haven't had lessons since last year! *dances happily* And luckily, my sewing teacher said that I could call if I had any problems/questions. ^_^
*cough* Anyway. Yeah, so, I decided it couldn't be that hard and figured I might as well give it a shot. And after working most of yesterday, all I have left to do is hem the bottom, add the trim, and make the obi (Thanks Tohmalover14! I should have known that.. lol ^^") Which is exciting. Well, after that, I still need to hem the sleeves some more too, because I'm practically swimming in it as of right now. lol.
That's.. pretty much it. Not much else to say. ^^ Hope you're having a good day. ^^
Wanderlust
By Nightwish
I want to see
Where the sirens sing
Hear how the wolves howl
Sail the dead calm waters of the Pacific
Dance in the fields of coral
Be blinded by the white
Discover the deepest jungle
I want to find The Secret Path
A bird delivered into my heart, so
It's not the end
Not the kingdom come
It is the journey that matters,
The distant wanderer
Call of the wild
In me forever and ever and ever forever
Wanderlust
I want to love by the Blue Lagoon
Kiss under the waning moon
Straying, claiming my place in this mortal coil
Riding the dolphins
Asking the mountains
Dreaming Alaska
The Earth can have but Earth
I want to find The Secret Path
A bird delivered into my heart, so
It's not the end
Not the kingdom come
It is the journey that matters,
The distant wanderer
Call of the wild
In me forever and ever and ever forever
Wanderlust
Look into my eyes and see
The wanderer
See the mirrors of a wolf behold
The pathfinder
Look into my eyes and see
The wanderer
See the mirrors of a wolf behold
The pathfinder
So, today's been.. interesting, to say the least. XD
First off, I called my sewing teacher to find out about when she could do private lessons. Again. But.. she couldn't help me today. I'm supposed to call her tonight to see what the rest of the week looks like..
Then, I tried to layout the second part of my pattern, because it hadn't made sense to me in the beginning, but it suddenly did.
This is when the break down happened. ^^"
I literally broke down and started crying. My options were either to go and spend a whole lot more money on more material or not cosplay at all.
BUT!! I came up with a solution. I remembered that I had bought a crapload of white material. So! I decided to make a white kimono with purple trim. (Yeah, I know Akito doesn't do white with purple trim, but it's better than plain white AND I had already cut out the purple. And I love the purple material.) Now, the only thing I need to decide is if I wanna do the tie/sash thing magenta or black... hm..
I'm wicked nervous because the con is THIS FRIDAY. I really hope I can get this done in time.. *glances around nervously*
Sorry for the rant. ^^" Just.. needed to get that off meh chest. ^^"
Questions:
1) Do you think my improvised outfit will work? ^^"
2) Magenta or Black (for the tie/sash/belt thing)?
3) Have you ever watched The Demented Cartoon Movie or The 5th Avocado? (They're both on Albino Blacksheep)
So, my mum woke me up today and was running around the house excitedly/happily saying something about wild turkeys. I swear, my family must attract large birds or something because there were /at least/ 6 wild turkeys in our backyard. (My parents saw more than I did, because my mum had sorta scared them right before she woke me up. And then, when I crawled back in bed, they were talking about seeing them in the field behind the clump of trees in our backyard.) So yah. It was pretty interesting. ^^
Anyway, that's pretty much it. ^^" Uh.. I dunno what else to say. Except.. I feel kinda sick today. Oh well. Well, I guess that's pretty much it.
