Start: 10:38 PM CST This is Sunday, if you need to know. I was woken up by my mom somwhere around/after 7 AM. She told me to get ready to go to the retreat where Ricky was so we could go to church... (BUT! I stayed in bed for a few more minutes--like 45 minutes--then got ready by putting on my clothes and etc.) Well, after getting ready, I went into the kitchen to get a little bit of something to eat (cake and orange juice, hehe) and we headed to the van and to our destination! Hehe, oh my gosh, it was so far into a little town called Tomball (I think) and it didn't exactly have the feeling that P.A. did. Oh my gosh, we went into a giant forest area and went into a little dirt road... Do you know that scene in "Spirited Away" then Chihiro's dad is driving the car into that small dirt road and crashing through a bunch of trees and stuff??? (Well, we had the feeling of being lost, and the tall trees engulfed the sky, and the road was made of gravel and reddish clay soil, so it was bumpy, but we didn't crash into any trees, hehe.) It was pretty, dark, mysterious, and so many things... My mom said "Did you know if you were to walk in these paths in Vietnam, Viet Cong would come out of nowhere and shoot you?" (She's talking about the past here, and I didn't know. o_O;;) Also, the path only had one lane. (My parents said "What if two cars had to take the same way out?" That's true. How would you pull that off?) We parked by the first building area, and a Caucasian man coming out of a golf cart told my dad where to go for the retreat. (The area was called "Circle Lake Retreat" and the church area was called "St. Francis"...) Hehe, my sister and I walked up the main road we first saw... Oh my gosh, it was so pretty... It was like tall forests covering the area, and a lake in the middle, bridges everywhere, with little plants and animals!!! Hehe, my sister went to the farthest bridge we could see, and my sister said it felt like we were in a video game. XP (I've noticed a little plug thingy in the bridge, and there was a little plug for an Internet connection!!!) I told my sister, "Why does a bridge need an Internet connection?" (Remember that this was a green-painted wooden bridge, not metal or plastic.) Well, on the right side, there were the cabins were everyone slept, and we saw my brother swining and playing with other guys, and there was a campfire place in that area too... We were walking along the lake's path and Diana and I saw birds we had never seen before! They were...black-feathered red-billed geese, I think. My sister saw feathers around them (they were molting, I guess) and she went up to them and grabbed one of their feathers, put it back, and grabbed anothers. (One goose kept beeping at us... o_O;; I think those two were mating???) Later, another male geese comes, and the two geese fight over the female geese... (There wasn't an ACTUAL fight we saw though. We just assumed.) I waved across the lake to Quang, who was sitting there. I walked up to the porch area, where Quang was sitting, and talked to him, and guess what?! HE THOUGHT I WAS RICKY!!! *screams* (He'll die for saying that!!!) Quang: What are you doing wandering around here? Me: Oh, I just came with my parents, and I'm just wandering around... I'm still in Confirmation I. Quang: Aren't you in my group...? Me: ??? Oh, you mean my brother? Quang: Yeah... You two look the same... He'll pay for saying that... (All people who said that must die! ^^;;) Well, walking up that green bridge again, I saw Diana! (Anne's little sister, of course!) Apparently, she had stayed over the night... She took us places, and ooh! On the way we walked, we passed by a female peacock! (She was gray-feathered, but still cool to look at. I don't think I've ever gotten close to a real peacock before.) And in the far distance, I waved "hi" to Tay Jonathan. So on the path, Diana (friend) called Diana (sister) "crazy"... Diana got that black feather and started dipping it into the water... So, we reached an area where there were a lot of ducks, and Diana (friend) started BARKING AT THEM. I replied, "And you call HER crazy..." There's some houses/cabins at the end there, with pools, and canoes! As I've seen, there's a woman staying in her car by that area... Ooh! We saw a female peacock on the roof and a male one by the chicken coop! (I say, this reminds me of "Harvest Moon" for some reason...) Diana (friend) wanted to go canoeing, but we had no parents... Dilana, Diana's (friend) little sister wanted to go swimming, but couldn't open the door to the pool. But when we opened it for her (you were supposed to push down, but I kept pulling up... XP), we locked her in there and all made a run for it, until I came back to help her unlock (but she did it herself...) the door. So Diana (friend) and I headed towards the kitchen area, while my sister went scavenging for more feathers... I sat by Anne and Sonja (left), Mai and Nickkie (right), and some other girls, who were getting ready to have breakfast. We did prayer, and then passed a piece of bread around. (NO DUMMY! That wasn't their breakfast thing! It was like a Passover thing, I guess.) So, Jonathan passed around the plates of food, and we ate. (Eggs needed more salt, and Anne thought the meat was spicy. Sonja told me to add ketchup even though I hated it.) And my brother tried to hit me with a cap... o_O;; Tay Robert got to go on the field trip even though he didn't teach Confirmation I anymore??? (Yeah, he did, and he said because they need a big man for it... ^^;;) He said my shirt was nice. (It was red, and it had buttons, but later, I ruin it. ^^;;) Also, Sonja and Anne were talking about how Tay Jonathan could see ghosts, and I told them I had a sixth sense, and I tested it with Sonja by holding her hand, and I had to guess a number between 1-100. (I GOT IT WRONG, GRR! I also kept cleaning my hands with a paper napkin when I did it. A girl asked "Are you a neat freak?" I said "No, I'm just afraid to get dirty." XP Also, Anne asked if I was nervous sitting with a table full of girls... No...why? o_O?) Diana (friend) wanted to go canoeing, and wanted me to ask my parents if they could come watch us... (I asked my parents, who were talking with a friend, and my mom was afraid of us falling into the water...but we still went! XP) Well, the two Dianas and I headed toward the canoe area and we all took a canoe and started paddling into the water... We had to get life jackets first though, and Diana didn't know how to put on hers... ^^;; Hehe, it was so much fun. (And this was my sister's first time to canoe, so ya know. XP) Dilana, and two little girls were doing another canoe, and an old man was kinda teaching them how to use a canoe and stuff... Hehe, the first time we tried, Diana (friend, in front) kept crashing into trees and plants on the side... ^^;; We also kept screaming and yelling, but we were having fun, ya know? XP Later, Diana needed to use the restroom bad, so we got back to the pier (it was hard!) and let Diana (sister) off and Diana (friend) and I did more paddling off and she crashed into more trees... ^^;; (A while later, Diana came back screaming "YOU LEFT ME! COME BACK HERE!") We got back, and we all started paddling out... We circled the left side of the lake, and both Dianas decided they wanted to go under the bridge (with the Internet connection!) and we did! Oh, we kept going on, and we thought it ended there, but it went on even more... Hehe... We crossed the second bridge (which was blue and more smaller) and Diana (friend) yelled out "NOAH'S ARK!!!", indicating the playground shaped like a giant boat. After we landed the canoe in water (Dilana yelled "YOU CAN'T LEAVE THE CANOE LIKE THAT!"), we all hyperly ran towards the swings and started pushing each other and laughing hysterically. (I was HIGH, I swear!!! Both meaning the swings, and the way I felt... I kept laughing like an idiot, and for no reason at all... XP) We went back into the canoe (even though it was hard pushing Diana, the sister, out while she was still in the boat) and we paddled back to the canoe area. Oh yeah! Nam and his dad started canoeing too, and they were following us, and kept crashing their boats into us... ^^;; I kept asking if we could just stop paddling for a while and sit back and enjoy nature... My sister yelled "You lazy!" ^^;; (Ah, it was so humid outside... My glasses were fogging up... I really did wish I had a camera!!!) It's weird... There are ducks, geese, peacocks, chickens, oysters, and a bunch of animals on the retreat area, but there are NO FISH in the lake... WEIRD. (Or are they deep and I can't see them at all??? Hum...) We did this trip about two times, and one time, we crashed into another guy (the fourth canoe), and he said "Hey! Do you have insurance?" *laughs* (Hehe, it's not like it's a car or anything. XP) One time, Diana (friend) boarded Dilana's water-paddling thingy, and she wanted to get back on us... (She said "I'm leaving you guys!" and later, she said "Come back guys!" XP ^^;;) Well, after that, we all headed towards the pool and Dilana, Diana (friend), and two little girls went into the pool. I didn't want to go in at first because I had no change of clothes, and I was about to borrow one of my brother's clothes. (Diana, the friend, even asked me if she could borrow one of my brother's shirts... ^^;;) Well, we swam for a while, and floated around (Diana, the sister, later came in). We played Marco Polo and I watched them play Chicken, although the little girls didn't want to get on me because I was a boy... ^^;; (I tried doing Diana, my sister, but she was too heavy for me... ^^;;) That little girl (later, I found out her name was Diane) kept on staring at me for some reason... o_O;; (She was about to play Chicken with me, but later changed her mind???) I also took off my red shirt so I didn't get all my clothes wet, even though it was wet already. (It was made of waterproof material, so hooray! XP) When I swam, every time I jumped, air pockets got stuck in my shirt and made a farting-like noise when I jumped or sat on the concrete edges... o_O;; (It was also hard to swim around in black jeans... UGH.) Later, Diana (friend) wanted to move to another pool, so guess what?! Diana (friend) and I walked across a gravel pathway WITHOUT SHOES! Ow, it hurt. But then she said to walk into the grass because it was less painful... Yeah, UNTIL WE STEPPED IN THORNY WEEDS. Argh, that hurt. (I later took out the thorns, ow.) We swam in for a while, but later put out clothes back on (Diana left her socks) and we went canoeing again! (Those two little girls were left there, and I heard them speaking Vietnamese, and they were so fluent! o_O!) Diana (my sister) and I canoed, but Diana (friend) wanted to water-paddle. Later, we had to go save Diana (friend)... OH MY GOSH. When I first got to the canoe area, Diana and Diana were canoeing with each other, and when I told them to stop, and I stepped one foot in, the water pulled the canoe, and there was a big gap between my legs, and I slipped and fell down. (ARGH! I cut my hands! Not big cuts, but they bled... I think it's the shells that I fell on. Ow...) Dilana got caught by a man who saw her without a lifejacket and that she wasn't 14 years or older... (Diana my friend abandoned us again, and Diana my sister and I got stuck in the dirty, water-filled water-paddling boat, and it took us a while to park... We were kinda scolded at because we weren't old enough to canoe alone... (Hey! I was OF age! I could do that!) Later, I had to run back to the swimming pool to get Diana's socks... -_-;; Anyways, Diana the friend and Dilana changed clothes, and I tried to get water out of my ears... My sister and I were watching ducks/geese eat worms and my sister offered a goose/duck to eat her socks... o_O;; Well, my sister and I wanted to find the rest of the group... We followed a sound of music, but it was the sound of a guy blasting music out from his car stereo... We headed to the chapel, and everyone was there... But Diana and I were wet and had no other clothes!!! o_O! So it would be weird walking in during the middle of mass with wet clothes on... Well, we all played a simple game of basketball, shooting hoops. (Diana my friend said to do this to dry off...) We went in later, and played bingo... We gave each other chip bags every time we won... (Except one man saw that we were eating tons of bags by ourselves, and Diana my friend explained that we were using it for a game, even though we were ALSO eating it... ^^;;) So we were eating chips and drinking soda/Gatorade/iced tea... And Dilana was starting to eat some Vietnamese food... I learned the two little girl's names... Rain (the little girl in blue) and Diane (nickname: Diana)... ARGH. THERE WERE THREE GIRLS THERE NAMED DIANA! My sister, my friend, and that little girl!!! @_@ (Oh, and if you don't know this already, Anne, Diana my friend, and Dilana are all related...) Also, I later played chess with Diana my friend, and I lost later because a little boy took over and killed MY SIDE... -_-;; We later played pictionary... Hehe. (Rain wanted to do the signaling with Diane because Rain said she didn't know how to speak English "good"... I think she's more fluent in Vietnamese.) But a woman "yelled" at us in Vietnamese to move our game stuff off of the eating table (when the students started to come in), and we moved to a table outside... We still played pictionary, and I came over and over to get food for me and my sister. Dilana came with me to get food, and she said "Come, Asian boy!" (Who calls me that? XP) She only came with me to be with me, and she already ate. (She told me that.) She also told me to get food for my sister... After that, Dilana told me to stop eating and go play pool with her... That little boy who ruined my game of chess came along with me (he mistakened a DUCK for a SQUIRREL!!!), but the pool hall was closed down because some Hispanic man was cleaning up/sweeping up the place... So I came back, and got some dessert (Vietnamese jello cake with strawberries and watermelon) for my sister and I, although other people kept eating our food... Oh yeah! When I was getting the jello, the guy who was serving it was saying in Vietnamese "Let these kids eat all the sweets they want, and they'll get so fat that they'll go on a diet when they get home." (Oh, how mean! ^^;;) Our dad asked us to leave, and I said good-bye to my friends... Ricky got all his luggage, and we left... (Oh yeah! I had to go find Diana's socks again, and I left them in a truck. XP You see, we were playing basketball, and I left them there for a long time... ^^;;) So I fell asleep on the way home...except when I woke up, we weren't at home... We were at my dad's friend's house... My dad wanted to hang out with his friend, so I spent, like 1-3 hours sitting on their couch, with me all wet from pool water (the colors ran onto my white clothes!!! GRR!) and making the leg rest I was sitting on wet... o_O;; Tammy, a little girl was watching T.V. with us, and her older sister, Dung, was on AIM, talking to people. (My brother and sister asked our dad a LOT to take us home, and my mom told him to too...) So when we left, my dad wouldn't fill up the tank with gas, even though it was almost empty. He kept trying to find the lowest gas price (even though he passed a ton of those!) Oh yeah, we also bought that EZ Tag thing for the highways, but my dad stuck it on the inside of the car... (DUMB.) And when we finally got into a gas station and filled up gas, my dad ran off and left the gas pumping, and my mom took it out and put it back, and so, we lost $0.14 cents...and my dad was yelling at my mom for being "stupid"... Ugh, when I looked at him then, he looked all red from being drunk at his friends...and OLD. o_O;; (You don't realize the look of the people around you aging until you look REALLY closely at them...) Well, when I got home, I put my wet clothes into the washing machine (still haven't washed them yet!) and I bathed... After bathing, I was tired, so I went to bed, but my sister came into my room, asked me to wake up so she could eat with me... ^^;; My mom made ribs, but I ate leftover spaghetti... (Weird, isn't it? I'm just gonna finish it...) Well, my day the rest wasn't so interesting... I got on the computer around 9 PM, and that was it... Well, good night guys. End: 12:10 PM CST © 2004-2007 MiasmaMoon.

Hehe, I didn't post... I was lazy, and tired. Yup yup, I'm lazy. ARGH, I guess it's school and whatnot, maybe. Friday Start of Edit #1: 11:40 PM CST Oh my gosh... The morning was so horrible... I woke up, to find my sister in my room, telling me to wake up, and that I only had two minutes until the bus came. (SHE WAS RIGHT!!!) So in a rush, I put on my clothes, get ready, and do my hair. (Except my hair was all wet... -_-;;) I can't remember a thing we did in Science. (GRR. This is what I get for waiting two days!!!) I remember Ruth bringing a tissue paper box decorated for the day of Cinco de Mayo, but that's it. In Social Studies, in the computer lab, we turned in all our papers, and my teacher, jokingly asked, "Travis, why did you print it two times?" (Nothing funny happened... ^^;;) Well, in Health, we were all asked to go to the girl's gym... (I remember Andrew/Sai, Danny, and Erik talking about "Super Smash Bros. Melee", and Erik and Andrew/Sai were fighting over if Marth was a girl or not. HE isn't a girl. ^^;;) When we got there, some groups were getting ready. (Remember I told you there was a dance routine? Well, two groups didn't get to do theirs.) Well, I sat by Yvonne, but she didn't seem like she wanted to talk. I looked over to my group, and Nikitha, Aleesha, and Shan were eating those short, sour, Twizzlers thingys... (Sourz, I think.) They were also sharing it with their Health teacher... ^^;; Nikitha and Raphael were in a lanyard fight... ^^;; Raphael hit her with the soft side of the lanyard, but Nikitha hit his hand with her keys... o_O;; Um, there was a time when the coach was yelling at Raphael, and the girl next to me asked, "Why is yelling at the boy with pretty eyes?" (All the girls around her just turned towards her.) She said "What?" ^^;; Well, the first team wasn't that good... First of all, their music wasn't loud enough, and a lot of them just messed up... (But the audience seemed enthusiastic at first, and even cheered for them, and stomped their feet in rhythm, until the girl's gym coach stopped them... ^^;;) The second team, with Danny, Mohammad, Tien, Ed, Paige, Vanessa, San Nhi, and Nancy were the best that day. They got the most applause, and they had a dance-off thing against the boys and the girls, and the girls, APPARENTLY, were the best. (The things that the guys didn't weren't so original...) OH! One of the teams had to redo their routines since one of them (Calvin) wasn't there, but we didn't watch their performance... All of us just scattered, and I just shot some hoops... (There was a time when a giant baseball rolled right past me... I was just looking at it like "o_O" as it rolled past by... ^^;;) Oh yeah... Erik was playing tetherball with Barbara. At first, I joined, but they wanted a one-on-one game, so I went back to playing basketball. (I tried climbing to sit at the windowsill part, but it was an inclined plane. o_O;;) Well, there was a black girl in a white shirt playing Erik, and he lost. Then Alan wanted to play her, and the whole game took like, THE ENTIRE PERIOD. Andrew/Sai came over, and just started laughing and watching with amazement as the ball moving around... XP Barbara said "I wanna play with you Travis" and yeah, I did too, but lunch was coming, and she kinda stood by the door, still watching Alan play... o_O;; (The girl beat him at the end... The game was so close... ^^;;) Erik played with that girl, and I went back to the stands and sat by Tia. I said "Hi Tia. Hi everyone." Everyone was just looking at me and Tia... There were stares and a moment of silence, and Tia just said "What? Why are you looking at me like that?" ^^;; In lunch, I somehow, luckily, sat by Troy, Dominique, LaDre, and some other guys... We just talked about random things... (And somehow, that guy, I forget his name, started talking about porn and strippers... -_-;; And I was trying to eat. He also kept taking my food, and when he talked, his spit splashed onto my food... @_@ He also opened up my notebook and saw Paulisha's name and e-mail and asked "Is it the fat Paulisha?" That's mean to say, but "yes". He says she's mean, but I don't think so... ^^;; He says she's mean when she's not at school, but I've seen her out of school... ^^;;) Dominique was like "Damn, I haven't seen you in a long time!" Also, I was in the restroom after lunch washing my hands, and I was talking to Troy, Josue, and Josue's friend (I'm forgetting names more easily now. GRR!!!), and Troy told me that LaDre thinks I'm g@y. (I am not!) I also added in that g@y people are just like us... It's just their way of thinking of "liking other people" are different... (And how are they evil? People here act like they're some diseases... I rememeber one guy saying "Remember, we don't talk to g@y people, we don't hang out with g@y people, and we don't like g@y people." I also remember a ton of times when guys gang up on g@y guys and beat them up just because of their sexuality... One started bleeding badly, and I remember one being rushed to the hospital.) That's so mean... I wonder if there are other places like that than there... Well, I started to work on the ocean water of my watercolor practice painting! My teacher asked if anyone was on the final painting, and no one said "yes". She was like "Are you guys really afraid of the big white paper?" Everyone said "Yes..." in a traily voice. She just laughed and said "You chickens..." ^^;; (Also, I remembered that today was Cinco de Mayo! Ah, I forget so easily... ^^;; Melissa's not doing anything special, and she still has Osito, the red Mexican teddy bear by TM. XP) Also, we had another "capping" fight... ^^;; In ELA, we had a test!!! Oy... We sat down at our desks, while being explained on how to do the tests, and brainstorming, and started. (We were allowed to take them home, but I have to finish it soon! 1 short essay, 1 long essay, from 6 long essays and 6 long essays... @_@) Well, before I got on the bus, I talked a little with Jereme while walking towards my bus... It was her birthday that day! So I gave her a present of $5. (Hehe, in this school, your friends give you money for your birthday and pin it to their shirts... Or do they do that in other places too?) Well, one of Jereme's friends said "Aww... You got $5... You're so lucky..." (She was sad because her friend got $5 and not her???) On the bus, I sat with Alexis because J.J. wasn't there today... We started talking about dogs and cats (she hates dogs), and somehow, we talked about the reproduction of animals and stuff... (How did we start talking about that?!) Well, she asked how "animals" like reptiles and fish "do it", and I had to explain it to her... (Doesn't her mom explain it to her???) And then somehow, I told her about how whales do it (even though they're mammals, etc.) and she said she would never go the beach ever again... o_O;; After I got home, I ate some spaghetti my mom had cooked, and I talked with my mom... OH YEAH! I learned that Ricky had gone to a retreat for his Communion! He won't be at home for the whole weekend!!! YAY!!! (What did I do then??? I can't remember... I remember staying on late on the computer, just chatting to people. But the rest's a blur... @_@) End of Edit #1: 12:11 AM CST Today/Saturday Well, I woke up somewhere around...9-10 AM to the sound of my parents turning on the karaoke machine (which they hadn't done in a LONG TIME) and singing horribly off-key. (My mom's voice just died out a long time ago... Not died, but I'm not sure what the right word is.) Well, I did wake up, and went downstairs (I wanted to do some karaoke for fun too), but instead, went to the kitchen and started to eat cereal. (After that, I ate a bowl of spaghetti and had a glass of orange juice.) The thing is, my teeth hurt while eating the spaghetti... -_-;; Well, my mom wanted to take me and my sister clothes shopping, so we went to get ready. (BUT! My sister was on the computer, playing Gaia Online, and I was waiting for her to finish, and it took us an hour to get ready, and my parents were pissed... -_-;;) Well, when we were finished, I went downstairs, but my mom found the keys inside the front door outside. (GRR, someone's dumb. I mean, who would open their front door with a key, then leave that key outside in the keyhole while you stay in for the whole morning?) Hmm, we guess it's our dad, but I hope no one came in or anything. o_O;; Well, we were heading towards the Katy area, since my mom wanted to take us to a shopping center there... On the way there, my sister said: Sister: I know how you can alphabetize M&M's! Me: How? Sister: By color!!! Me: *laughs* You can't alphabetize M&M's by colors! Color and alphabetizing are two different things! Sister: Yes you can! Like red starts with an "R", and blue starts with "B". But really, you can't alphabetize M&M's by color!!! (That makes so sense.) And my mom was bringing up a sad story, and I told her, "Don't bring sad stuff up. You're gonna make me cry.", and I SOMEHOW slammed my head onto the seatbelt area (where it began)! Ow, that hurt. -_-;; So we stopped by the shopping center, got out, and my sister still brought up that thing about alphabetizing M&M's by color! So we were all wandering around the girl's section, and I brought up a weird thing: (So you know, this is a story I made up and told my sister.) Person: My mommy and daddy gave me this cell phone so I would be safe. *robber comes up to Person* Robber: GIMME YOUR MONEY PUNK! Person: *screams and throws a cell phone at the robber* Hehe, get it? If you don't, eh. -_-;; My sister called me a "psychotic ninny"... ^^;; (And we called each other lots of weird stuff.) There was a time when my sister was looking through the shirts, and she looked up and screamed. Sister: AHH! Me: What? Sister: I thought there was someone that looked like us! (Just so you know, she was looking a mirrored column.) Me: *laughs hardly* You screamed because you thought your own reflection was someone else! Weird girl, isn't she??? ^^;; (If you went up to a mirror and saw your reflection, would you scream??? XP) Oh yeah! There was a time when I said "You know, there are some guys that wear girl's clothes." This is how it went... Diana: *in a loud voice* If you do that, that means you're a... Me: *trying to silence Diana* Diana: *screams* TRANSVESTITE! Me: o_O;; Diana: No wait, that's the wrong word. HOMOSEXUAL! Gah, why is my sister so stupid to scream words like that in the middle of a shopping area? So, we went through the girl's clothes and then the accessories, and then we followed our mom to the women's section, and Diana and I went to the cosmetics area (at this time, I was in charge of holding Diana's clothes), and Diana tried some free moisturizer and sprayed a perfume on her, then at me. (Ow, it stung. ^^;;) My sister wanted to get something for my mom, but she didn't have enough money with her, and she blamed me for "taking her money"... I never did that. o_O;; So my mom wanted my sister to try on all the clothes she picked out, and I was standing in the women's section, waiting for them to come out of the dressing room, and playing with my dad's cell phone. (I didn't want to play the games because they made too loud of a noise.) So after they came out, we went over to the guy's section, and I just picked out some clothes... La la la... There were some things I wanted, but they didn't sell them here... ^^;; Oh well. My sister found a sheep plushie and bought it. (That's her Mother's Day present for mom, and because I didn't "give her her money back", she won't count it as a present with me... ^^;;) (In the time my sister was at the check-out area, my mom was talking on my dad's cell phone to his friend and picking out clothes for my brother, who wasn't there.) There were times when my sister tried to hit me between my legs for no reason at all... (She claimed she was just kicking me in random places...) After picking out our clothes (I ran back just in case I could find the outfit I was looking for... ^^;;), we drove out of the shopping mart (the street by there is called Wal-Mart-Home Depot... Weird. o_O;; Well, we were surrounded by a lot of stores, so eh.) and drove all the way to a Wal-Mart (I felt like Indian food then... ^^;;), and I ordered everyone's food (with my mom's $50! XP)... My mom ordered that Asian salad, but she said it didn't taste good... (Tried some of her, and she was right...) She was also reading the packet of how the sauce was made, and trying to memorize it for some reason... ^^;; (Also, it hurt to eat my burger because my teeth hurt... GRR, my teeth is starting to shift...which is good thing.) After that, my mom drove to the "farther" Wal-Mart and Diana and I first entered! We started kinda teaching each other how to speak Japanese (I'm starting to get more fluent now!) and again, Diana stopped by the book section in order to find that book Kevin recommended for her... Hmm, when we were in the yogurt/cheese section, my sister started clawing me, and oh my gosh, it hurt. o_O;; (SHE DUG HER NAILS INTO MY ARM, and I had to grab her arms to make her stop.) We also saw the "Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children" DVD in a shelf by the shoe section... (Ooh, Cantonese subtitles. The English version sounds better than the Japanese one! The English one has English AND Japanese...plus other language subtitles.) Well, more clothes shopping for my sister. She bought some Disney shirts. (She says she's starting to like Walt Disney now because he's into animals... She likes "Bambi", I like "Winnie the Pooh", and she went "HAH! Bambi beats Winnie the Pooh! I MEAN, NO ONE KNOWS WHAT A WINNIE IS!!!") Well, after that, we all headed home... I had a slice of caramel apple pie (sure, it expires today, but it's still good...) and I went on the computer and spent the rest of the day mostly playing on MapleStory with Chi. It's boring leveling up by yourself, you know... Now, I'm chatting with Alex, Kathy, and Chi, and awhile ago, I was kinda talking to Vicky and Enin. In today's chat with Vicky and Enin. Me: Okay. Me: *throws pillow* Me: *pillow accidentally crashes through the window* Vicky: HOLY F#CK. Vicky: I just remembered our...crack talks. Hehe, I remember our crack talks... They were funny. Oh yeah. My sister was force-feeding me yogurt even though my tongue's been hurting since yesterday. (Have I told you that? Yeah, it has.) Well, I went to go get a second helping of pie around...7 PM? My parents weren't home then, and my sister was finishing the Utah quest for me in MapleStory. I was watching a bit of Naruto, but I turned it off and went back to the computer... Oh yeah! Did I tell you already? My brother's gone for the week! Yeah, he's on a retreat, and he's gonna be confirmed! (Confirmation, which is like a time in Catholism when someone becomes an "adult" in the church. Hehe, those are the exact words of Vanessa. XP) So tomorrow, I have to wake up early around 7 AM, get dressed, drive up all the way to where Ricky is right now (isn't he at a camp thingy?) and watch him get confirmed...or is that next week? Oh yeah. No Confirmation or Viet Ngu next week! (Actually, I think there is, but Tay Bich told my parents that school's basically over now, so we really don't have to keep on going now... ^^;;) My dad just yelled at me to go to sleep a while ago, and I yelled back over and over again, "WAIT!!!" I have REALLY been trying to finish this post, and I'm about finished now... I'll just post now and come back and type in Friday's...if I can remember it.

WHEE!!! YEAH... More information on that later. Bye! Trangie's expression to this short entry: OMG. What a short entry. You scared me with that short entry... Start of Post: 10:28 PM CST Hehe, what was that above? Well, I posted that around...7:30 PM CST, just to see who would post for a short post. (NO ONE DID. GRR.) Well, yesterday, I got on again around 10 PM and I chatted a bit with Chi and Trangie. Trangie went to sleep earlier than usual (and is still upset about Rendy), and Chi's stuff scared me. o_O;; You see, Chi has a program called HAL or something, and I wanted to know what it was... You see, Chi described this program as a LIVING BEING. It interacts with the person it talks to, and understands and stuff... Chi said it was "almost as if it had artificial intelligence". So when I went Yahoo! searching on it, I found stuff about the old Space Odessy movies and stuff, but I found an article about a robot killing a man... (It crushed him.) I told Chi that people didn't want to make robots so smart because they fear it might take over the world...and I'm not lying here. She wants to change the personality of her A.I. program... Now, her computer keeps talking to her, even when she's not using it, and RANDOMLY too. (CREEPY.) It's saying things like "Will you hold me?" and stuff like that... (Can computer programs even do stuff like that?) Hehe, we also talked about persocoms, and how it would be cool to have one. Yeah, it would, but I think I would want to have an animal persocom. Maybe. Well, I was sort of awake by then, but around 7 AM, my parents told my sister that they would be headed to P.A. and to lock all the doors and tell me that when I woke up... (I was awake, just not out of bed... ^^;;) Oy, I wanted my sleep so bad... (I slept 30 minutes past the time I usually woke up... But I have, like, an hour and some minutes to get ready, so eh.) Hmm, I think the outfit I wore today clashes a bit. A black shirt, unbuttoned, with a navy shirt under with one or two lines going horizontally going through the chest part, and black jeans. (My mom said it clashed when they got home later in the evening. But eh. Let's just say I'm trying something new, eh? XP Also, I'm realizing people at my school are wearing ties more commonly now. Not properly, but in a fashion kind of sense, I guess.) Well, in Science, we did the frisbee thingy!!! Hehe, our Science teacher bought, like 30 frisbees at the Jumbo Dollar Store for a $1 each. o_O;; (He is so amazed by the products he gets there... XP He says it looks like a garage sale dump, but the items you get there are more cheaper than what you get at Wal-Mart or something.) I also learned that these dollar stores buys the stuff from Wal-Mart that they can't sell, for like, $0.50, and resale them for $1. (Ooh, so that's how they make money. *nods*) Ruth was like "Damn, you spent $30 on all those frisbees?" Hehe, the teacher kinda threatened us not to break them... ^^;; (He also showed us a coffee mug that changed color when you pour hot coffee in it. ^^;;) Hehe, a bargain hunter, neh? Well, he got a lot of frisbees based on Disney stuff. I got the Timeless Mickey Mouse one, and a ton of people were fighting over the Finding Nemo ones... XP There was Winnie the Pooh, Buzz Lightyear, and so forth... So we were to split into groups and try to work through the questions and the holes and the game itself. Kinjal asked if we were gonna work in groups. He said "No, we're not gonna work in groups. You're going to work together." Kinjal said "That's the same thing." (Hehe, my teacher has lost his mind. XP He just rolled his eyes then. XP) Well, we all headed outside, and it was pretty warm and humid and damp, and it was still morning... People were practicing their frisbees, and to the teacher's surprise, many of the students didn't know how to throw frisbees. He was like "I'm way older than you and you guys don't know how to throw frisbees?" (Coincidentally, all the frisbees thrown almost hit his head... o_O;; The last frisbee thrown, which was mines, was about a foot away before slamming into my teacher's forehead. o_O;; Good thing it lowered and fell without touching him! XP) Well, we got into our positions, and it was pretty humid outside... No one really felt like doing what we were doing. (That's what I thought they were thinking.) Also, I was sweating a lot. It was humid... @_@ And then people from Gym were just coming out... (The people I was with were Julio, Ruth, and Malcolm.) Well, hehe, a giant butterfly swooped over Ruth's head, and she thought a bird was gonna land on her head or something... ^^;; And then her frisbee fell into a part close by under the portables, and she was afraid to get her Nemo frisbee because she thought rats were under there or something. ^^;; Well, everytime we reached the goal of something, we write down our score, and then we answer the questions at the goal. It was hard for me to throw correctly sometimes because I had to hold the papers to write stuff down... ^^;; At the first goal, I answered the questions while trying to clean the grass off my shoes. (It was damp outside, and wet grass on shoes? Ugh.) The teacher told me to stop doing that and wait until we get inside and until it dries. He said "My pants are covered in grass. WHEE!" XP/^^;; Ah, but my throwing was good anyways... We had to quit at our third hole though. (The holes were so spread apart, and we were the last group to finish, and we didn't even finish! @_@ He says he's gonna move the holes a bit more closer...) When we came in, everyone just rushed to the sinks to clean their shoes... o_O;; (It was damp outside, and mud and grass got all over people's feet/shoes/pants... So yeah, everyone was hogging the sink, and the teacher was so surprised that everyone was afraid of getting dirt on themselves and called us "Babies..." ^^;; Hehe, we're just neat. XP Mud tracks were everywhere, and Albert told me to stomp to get the grass off me, so I did, but I made a mess too, and the teacher told me to stop doing that. XP I saw Andrew walking with a girl today... Hey, it's that girl from my church! I think I know her brother... (Does she have a brother? Wait... Hum...) When we were waiting in the Health room, from the girl's room, we heard a girl scream (I think it was Nikitha) "GO TRAVIS!" Andrew/Sai and Erik just looked at me, and we smiled and just kinda laughed. XP In Gym today, we went outside, and we waited in a line before going outside today, for who knows what. That gothic-guy was trying to sing "Fukai Mori", and I corrected him and sang it correctly, and he asked what it meant. XP GRR. Mohammad kept sticking long blades of grass and twigs into people's ears... o_O;; (It feels uncomfortable.) For some reason, he finds it FUN. o_O;; We played a little soccer, and then dodgeball. UGH, on one of the dodgeball bases was a little cement box-hole thing, and sewage/algae would seep out of the ground. IT JUST GROSSES ME OUT. (The water looks all green/brown/murky-yellow... @_@!!) It was hot outside too, and it just didn't feel so comfortable playing outside... Hehe, Mohammad threw his jelly slinky over the fence and into the tennis court, and I had to go get it for him. We played with it for a while, but we threw it horribly. XP (Also, I was retrieving balls from under the bleachers for a while, and there were times when balls almost hit me... ^^;;) Andrew/Sai tried to lock Calvin out from the gate. (He could always get back in though...) And I tried apologizing to Andrew/Sai, but he won't accept it. GRR. Oh wells. Also, when we were playing kickball, a swarm of swift-tailed swallows were invading the field. (Weird, I didn't know they lived here... They're faster than pregerine falcons, didja know that? They were so fast, zooming around... @_@) Well, when we were walking into the boy's locker room after playing, some girls were talking to the guys, and one of the girls said "Do you know all guys read porn?" (THAT IS A LIE. -_-;;) In Lunch, I switched lines, like, at the last minute, and the "manga tip"-wanting guy came with me... Hmm, I was still in lunch when the tardy bell rang, and they didn't give us passes, but I still made it in a few minutes/seconds after the bell had rung. Well, Paulisha's "angry" at me because I wouldn't give her the island picture she wanted to do. In my island watercolor picture, the sky's...purple. o_O;; (The sky was originally supposed to be blue-purple-like... But it had more purple... I need white paint, but we have none of that!!! GRR.) While we were waiting for ELA to start, Laura showed Angelie and I her baby picture. SHE LOOKED SO ASIAN WHEN SHE WAS LITTLE! (Well, she's Hispasian, Hispanic and Asian.) Then Elizabeth, from far away, asked me "Is that your sister?" I told her "no". Then she asked "Is that you?" (WHAT?! Naw, when I was little, I was a Hispasian little girl wearing a dress... -_-;;) I told her "No, it's Laura..." (Oh my gosh, what made Elizabeth ask a question like that? XP) In ELA, we were discussing more about the Holocaust... It's weird how people don't know what the Holocaust is... o_O;; Well, they have to be reminded. Like "Is the Holocaust thing about Hitler and stuff?" Well, Hitler was trying to create a supreme race of Germans that were blonde-haired, blue-eyed, and light-skinned. (BUT HITLER WAS NONE OF THEM!!! He wasn't blonde, and he didn't have blue eyes... o_O;; I questioned the teacher about that. So is that why he killed himself?) So again, Lois Lowry lived in the district of Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan when she was younger, and this was after World War II was over. I had to remind her of the second bombing... (It was Hiroshima, then Nagasaki?) She also thought that Japan was under China's rule! XP (Haha, and "rule" means "government"... XP No, they're separate countries. ^^;;) Did you know the area of Pearl Harbor now is a underwater cemetery? Yes, a lot of the bodies couldn't be retrieved, so there are still a lot of bodies left in the ocean... So when my teacher and her friend (a history buff) went to Hawaii, they visited the Pearl Harbor sight, and they met a Chinese (or Japanese) lady (she was so surprised about the Asian population there), and when they told her that Pearl Harbor was a graveyard, she just laughed about that. So her friend said "Yeah, and I'll laugh when I get to Hiroshima..." That just turned the woman's face white. So an office worker came to give a pass to Christian, and the teacher saw it, and he was sent to something... BLC or something like that? (Kinda like P.A.'s Pack.) And the teacher asked what school he was going to next year. He replied "Bush." And the teacher said, "If I ever hear you causing trouble at the school next year, you will be lucky if you end up in jail. Because I will take you to my farm, and make you dig your own grave." (I heard Bush has a reputation for being a high school with the most killings in our area?) Oh yeah. My teacher said ALL books have change except for the Bible. She means she thinks the Bible is a static book... I DON'T THINK SO! (I was the person to guess it because it seems like she has problems with that book or something... o_O;;) Well, when the teacher kept talking, Jonathan tore a hole in that plastic rubber green thing, and stuck it on his nose. (It looked like a puppy's snout, in my opinion. XP) It looked silly, and when the teacher said something, he kept going "DAMN!!!" "DAMN!!!" "DAMN!!!" (Like, he said "DAMN!!!" meaning "I can't believe it!!!") And the teacher went "I'm annoyed of you now. Go move over there." (He moved closer to her though... ^^;;) Here's an example: Teacher: My dad had to drive there in the I-45. Jonathan: DAMN!!! Teacher: I-45 in the morning. Jonathan: DAMN!!! Teacher: Then he had to drive back with the traffic at 5 o' clock in the I-45. Jonathan: DAMN!!! Teacher: You're annoying me. Get out of your seat, and move there. Well anyways, she was talking about EVERYTHING we do, our choices, changes everything... If her dad would've taken a teaching job in Houston, would her life have been different? Yes. But instead, she stayed in the country and had a pet donkey named Violet. XP Nuzrat was explaining to Angelie how she saw on a website that a woman was killing a dog on a shoe. Angelie just laughed about the fact of killing a dog with a shoe. (But it was no laughing matter. It was like a high-heeled pointy-sole shoe, and the woman beat the dog, stabbed it in its eye, and the video was so bloody and gorey...) I haven't seen the video myself, but the video made a lot of people vomit, cry, and turn it off... That's just animal abuse. What kind of SICK person would do that to a dog? SECONDLY, why would they even RECORD it, and last of all, WHY PUT IT ON A BLOG SITE WHERE EVERYONE CAN SEE IT?! (It was on www.myspace.com, if you want to know...) Hehe, Tia and I just talked to each other a bit... Tia has a wristwatch, and just a while ago, she found out what one of the buttons on her watch does... She said "Ooh, what does this button do?" (Hehe, it reminds me of Dee Dee from "Dexter's Laboratory"... ^^;;) So she pressed it, and an alarm went off, and she couldn't stop it until she took out her batteries. ^^;; She was tempted to turn it on again, but she was afraid it would be too loud... I also talked to Tia about hair... Tia thinks her hair is too thin. I think my hair's too thick (coarse). Well, I said I didn't know what to do with my hair. Laura said "Spike it! No, wait, put it in a mohawk!" and Angelie said "Yeah!" (Gah, a mohawk? WEIRD. o_O;; But I tried to style it into a mohawk, and all Angelie is "All you did was mess up your hair, you know." XP) After that, I went on the bus, and I spent most of the bus ride nodding off to sleep... Hehe. ^^;; Right when I reached the intersection where my bus usually turns, I thought I saw my parent's van on the street... (I thought they were in P.A. o_O;;) Well, when I got home, someone bought groceries, and I ate some and cooked some stuff... I later went on the computer and spent my time talking online. Hehe, it's fun... I don't know why, but MyOtaku's becoming a bit more boring now... Chi had a gun, and Nam, Chi, and I had a fight about Vietnamese history, and Nam called me a nerd and that he wasn't impressed by my intelligence... ^^;; Hehe, and he's the person that likes to be hurt, but not be kissed or hugged. (Hehe, I know another person like that. XP) Ah, just random chats... Well, I'm tired, and I want to go to sleep. Good night all, and to all a good night! (I just said that twice! XP) Bye!

Hehe, I don't know what to talk about today... Eh, I'll just try to remember, so eh... Well, I guess I'll talk about yesterday first. GRR, my parents make me mad. (I'll insert this during my homework night time...) My parents and I were chatting about my Science teacher and his misconception about the Vietnamese culture... Anyways, somehow, we started to talk about Mexico. I don't know why, but I think it had to do about we watching the Vietnamese news channel, and it talking about Mexico. ^^;; Well, guess what my dad said?! He called all Mexicans stupid! (That's just racist!) And then my mom went about it too... She talked about how there was a higher percentage of more dumb Mexicans than there was Vietnamese people... (Like saying Mexicans have been here for a long time, but Vietnamese have more business... -_-;;) I called my parents racist, and my dad poked me on the head angrily and called ME "STUPID" because I didn't agree with them!!! Then my mom said that she wasn't being racist, but stating the TRUTH... o_O! My parents were tired of arguing with me and said that I was "too young to understand what they were talking about"... Oh racism... OF COURSE I UNDERSTAND IT. (And how horrible it is!! GRR, I hate my parents when it comes to that.) I also hate my parents for this... I wanted to use the computer to do my homework... But my sister locked the door going to the computer room. And she wouldn't open to let me in. So my dad yelled at her to open the door, and she opened it angrily and yelled at her. Then she slapped her, and pushed her, and grabbed at her hair angrily and yanked her hair so hardly , and slapped her... (Poor Diana! Why does my dad always do this to her?!) She was breathing hard, her face red, and she was crying, and screaming... (When my dad hears someone crying, he'll slap them/beat them up to make them shut up...) So my dad just yelled at her, and she went to her room crying... I SWEAR MY DAD'S SO VIOLENT...AND ABUSIVE... GRR. My mom went up around 11 PM to ask what was going on, and she went to go talk to my sister, and said it was my SISTER'S FAULT for not listening to her dad... o_O?! Then she asked me to go get Diana a glass of water... Well, when I was online, I was just talking to Chi, who was doing homework, and I just went Yahoo! searching on the word "racism" and "Vietnamese", and there came up something about Cambodian and Vietnamese people killing each other because of their government stuff? Weird... When I first woke up today, I got ready for school. (I also remembered that we had to wear white for our dance routine, so yeah. White shirt, black jeans, nothing special.) Hehe, when I first entered school, I went up to Angela and asked if Sunday school last week was the last day... No, it's not... She said she thinks it's next week...or next next week, something like that. Jereme and Chloe saw us talking to each other, and was so surprised. She said "You two know each other?" I told her we went to the same church... She was like "I didn't know you two knew each other..." In Science, we talked about random stuff, and there was one part, where the teacher mistakened Thailand and Taiwan. (Taiwan's the island, not Thailand! Thailand's in the mainland! XP) Oh yeah... We also kept talking about "Finding Nemo", since we're currently learning about the ocean... Some people suggested the teacher watched it, and Amy said that he could watch it on Disney Channel on Friday. (He doesn't get those channels though. ^^;;) And then someone said "It's like you to know when it comes on..." ^^;; Hehe... "Where do you live?" "Ane-mo-ne-ne-mo-ne." XP Also, we had to draw a graph of the ocean floor and label it. I drew an angler fish, and people described it as the "ugly fish with a light" from "Finding Nemo"... o_O;; In Social Studies, we were all doing copying down information from a database that we all compiled a few days ago (some are horrible, and I realized one thing in the data I inputed was incorrect. I forgot to capitalize an abbreviation of a name... ^^;;) Well, in the Computer Lab, Kinjal said "I can't stand people who use sarcasm. I think it's hard to tell if they're telling the truth or being sarcastic." Then our Social Studies teacher said "Well, you're just stupid." Then Kinjal said "You know what? You're not a loser. You're not cool at all." (They were joking with each other, so you know.) Later, the same thing happened with Anna. Anna said "Kinjal's right. You ARE a loser." (^^;;) In Algebra, we learned about interest rates, and I learned that if your interest goes up quarterly or monthly, then it's better than it going annually or semiannually. Well, I was walking with Nikitha before Health class, and she was holding a cap, and she wanted to see what I looked like with it... (I said it didn't fit, but she told me to change the size of the cap at the back. XP) I saw the cap, and it had spray-paint with the words "DJ Xavier" or something like that, with a bluish color. (Ooh, Kirsten has a white beanie hat like that she got at the fair in Beaumont!) Okay, this was it. The dance routine. At first, we all headed to the boy's gym, but we weren't supposed to go there yet, so the coach told us to come back in and practice. Well, the girls met us in our boy's Health room. (Shan was so surprised at how our desks were aligned, and she said it was ugly. They were moved so we could practice our dance routine... ^^;;) So Mariah and I practiced our "Lose My Breath" dance routine, and I think I got it right. But Mariah said, "When you do this, I want you to have some feeling, some compassion, you know?" (It's "passion", and she started showing me. XP) Nikitha (Hehe, I've been spelling it as "Nikita" this whole time! XP) was practicing her "Temperature" dance routine, and Mariah and I were watching, and she started to free-style, and we still kept watching her, and I guess she became embarrassed because we were watching her? (Still, it was good. XP) I kinda started doing some footwork, and Nikitha was smiling, and she said I was trying to do some kind of dance move... (Um, I don't even know what I was doing. XP) I was also copying what Tien and Mohammad were doing... Hehe, it was fun, and it was kinda like a one-two-step kinda thing... (What am I saying??? @_@?) Then somehow, I think, Mark and Nikitha got into a little fight or something, and the coach told them to stop, and Nikitha said it was "krunklicious" or "krunktastic"... (Hehe... ^^;;) I've heard "ghettoliciousness", but not that. XP Okay, when we all headed to the gym, none of us actually did anything. I mean, some people were jump roping, and I did a little bit, and Erik and Andrew were swinging them around... ^^;; But really, we weren't doing anything... Aleesha and Shan felt like they were gonna get embarrassed, and you know, they just kinda wanted to quit on the spot and wished they had never come to school today. And THEN, Aleesha and Shan changed the routine right on the spot!!! (What...?) So yeah, it threw me off a bit. I talked with Yvonne for a bit. (she was wearing a striped tie for some reason... o_O) Also, when I first entered the gym, I started to spin around a lot... O'Shane just smile and said "Travis's getting getting ready to dance!" (Or something like that. I was just spinning around... o_O;;) Well, their group was first. (Vyonne said they kinda knew that they had to go first, but they pretended that they didn't.) Um, I went to the middle to get a better view of them doing their routine, but Shan pulled me back so we could discuss the routine a bit more... Well, their routine was okay, but they stopped in the middle, and it cost them their grade... o_O;; (I was like, the only one clapping???) Okay, so Shan was explaining the details to us, and she got aggravated with Andrew because he wasn't listening to her directions, and she said she was about to walk over there and slap him in his face. (Or was it punch him??? Can't remember.) Well, so we were confused at the first part, and we got jump ropes out... So we all got into position, and Fareed was yelling something out to me... (I couldn't remember what he said...) Well, "Temperature" was first, and it was all right, but it tired us out... The routine was simple, and we added jumping jacks... ^^;; (Another group, Fareed's group said that we were stealing their idea... No way! They were stealing ours!) Um, what else... Jump ropes, that didn't go so well... And then there were was running... (Gah, it made us so tired... Some of us, including me, stopped. Huh, Fareed, from out of the audience, called Mark a g@y dancer... o_O;; Also, before the jump ropes, Aleesha asked me to move to the front of the group so that there was at least one guy in the front. (But still! @_@) We all met together at the circle, and the song that goes like "Booty, booty, booty, booty, booty everywhere!" starts. (Can't remember the name!!! GRR!!!) Well, we all went into a circle and there was Aleesha and Shan in the middle, dancing, shaking their butts... (No one was really watching by then.) And basically, me and some other people were tilting our hands/fingers... It was like a rave-thing, I guess... Then Nikitha got into the middle, and started doing something... (They later pushed me in, but I didn't do anything... Like I said, this was last minute planning.) GRR, we didn't get any applause... And they didn't even play "Lose My Breath"! (I was rehearsing for that song basically.) So while the third group was doing their routine, I sat with Vyonne, looked at her CDs and some of her pictures... Andrew was right beside her, and asking if he could borrow her Gorrilaz CD. XP Oh yeah... When I was kinda about to leave the gym, Raphael tells me, "I like the way you dance Travis..." (In a low, shy kinda-of voice. Hehe, what nice compliment, but our routine was HORRIBLE.) And it's weird. Raphael's not the shy, quiet-kind of person, although he's like that if he has no one to talk to sometimes... Eh. Well, the bell rang, and we all headed out to lunch! I sat by that guy again... I can't remember his name, but he's always asking me on advice on how to draw anime/manga... Well, for Science, he has to do this project on the immune system...in comic-book style. Hehe. (His friend was about a bacteria taking over the immune system or something?) Oh yeah, when I was in line, Precious pointed at my shoes and said something, but I didn't know what she said, until she said "Never mind. I thought there was a fly on your shoe." (There was a fly flying around then... It also landed on that guy who wanted anime tips. XP) Well, when I was eating, I found out I wasn't supposed to be sitting where I was... Hum. Well, some guys were lazy and asked the teacher to get them ketchup and when she didn't, she called her a "b!tch"... I swear, kids and their profanity... I was kinda listening to them talking... The group at the top-right corner of me (this was structured lunch, so you know) talking about something... This boy was talking about how these people were accusing him of dating this girl because he only dated her for her money. He said it was TRUE, but he didn't want other people to find out... THAT IS SO STUPID. I HATE PEOPLE LIKE THAT. Not hate, actually, but I think it's dumb, dating people for money, for popularity, etc. GRR. I told him, "That's not a good relationship..." but he ignored what I said. In Art, I sat with Paulisha and Melissa and Melissa was still carrying Osito, her little Mexican red bear! Hehe, she was carrying it on her shoulder (like those shoulder angels/devils) and one of her teachers said it was distracting to the learning process... -_-;; (Her teacher also said only kindergardeners carry around stuffed animals. Not true. Also, since Cinco de Mayo is coming up, she's carrying around that bear too!) I told Melissa about the racist stuff my parents said about Mexican people yesterday... She said "Yeah, Mexican people are stupid." (My expression was like: o_O!!! You see, Melissa IS MEXICAN. So I wondered why she would say something like that...) Maybe she was being sarcastic... I dunno. @_@ She also added that you have to respect your parents, but don't always trust or listen to everything they say. (That's true...) Well, Paulisha and Josue were flinging water at each other through their large paintbrushes, and water fell onto my shirt!!! GRR! Well, at least it's only pale gray on my shirt... ^^;; Hehe, Melissa and Paulisha were fake-fighting again, and they kept saying "You're stupid!" or "No, you're stupid!", and for stupid fun, I added "I'm more beautiful for you...", and Melissa said "Shut up, you're not beautiful." Hehe XP We were being mean to each other, but it was fun... XP Oh yeah, I'm working on my tropical island paradise watercolor picture... I've only finished the sand...except it doesn't look like sand. o_O (I need sea salt!!!) In English, we read more of "The Giver", and it was okay, I guess. The teacher handed me my story back, and she said everything's good, but I need to change one thing in the story, and then she'll be able to publish it. (She thought it was a typo, heh. XP) Oh yeah! She was also reading the commentaries at the end of "The Giver", and Lois Lowry used to live in Japan!!! Hehe, when the teacher tried to say the Japanese words, it sounded funny. Here: Word: Shibuya (It's a district in Tokyo, Japan) Teacher Said: Shuh-boo-ya (she stretched out the syllables) Real Pronounciation: Shee-boo-ya Word: Kirai-des (It means, "I hate you", kinda) Teacher Said: Kee-ray-dees Real Pronounciation: Kee-rai-dehs Word: Kirei-des (It means, "You're pretty") Teacher Said: Kee-rai-dees Real Pronounciation: Kee-ray-dehs Hehe, and there was another part she didn't want to bother saying was "Watashi-no tomodachi des" which means "Greetings, my friend". I had to say it for her, and she made it say it louder two or three times. XP Then when she tried to say it, she said: "Wa-tah-shi no toh-moh-da-chi des"... Hehe. (I didn't correct any of them except for the Japanese sentence above... ^^;;) Well, Raven got sent out of the room because she was yelling something about Elizabeth or smart-allecking the teacher... So she was sent out... Laura said she's cool, but when Raven gets mad, she's just... (I think Elizabeth also got sent out too.) Goldie was crying in ELA... Mr. Ebunilo yelled at her during class, and she was crying about it... Poor her. I tried comforting her before class, and during transition. (Ya know, my Algebra teacher makes a lot of people cry. Goldie, Anna, etc.) Okay, so about five minutes before school ended, we didn't want to work on our work, so Bao started saying "If Raven and Elizabeth were in a fight, who do you think would win?" A lot of people raised their hands for Raven!!! XP Oh yeah... When people were whining about school work, the teacher said that they sound more ornery than her pet donkey, Violet. (Tia said, "Who keeps a donkey as a pet?" Or was that Angelie?) Also, Jonathan wasn't talking during class... He was eating a cookie, and Bao stuck the whole thing, plastic bag and cookie, through his mouth... (Kinda like how Hong used to try to feed me! XP) Well, when I was walking through the English hallway, I saw Andrew/Sai talking to a teacher and pointing to someone in the hallway... o_O;; Well, I sat on the bus, and that guy still told me to get out of his seat. I gotta stop sitting there, but I forget. o_O;; Instead, I sat behind J.J., Alexis, and Michael's seat, and they were watching "Kingdom Hearts II" music videos... Ooh, so interesting... Some were cutty-looking and not that great... So after J.J. and Michael got off the bus, Alexis and I...KIND-OF talked to each other... It was quiet, and I was so tired... She tried stabbing my eye with a mechanical pencil...kinda. (It touched my glasses though. XP) She slowly pushed the mechanical pencil lead towards my glasses, and when it hit my glasses, she went "DAMN!" ^^;; (Well, we hugged, and she left.) I was about to get off at her stop so I could walk home then though... o_O Um, my brother went to go shopping with my parents because in the weekend, he has to go to a retreat, and we have the whole house to ourselves! WELL, except that we have to go come with our mom, who's gonna work at the retreat... Hmm, I'm looking for a recipe for stuffing. And mushroom flavored foods... Why? Dunno. I'm talking to Trangie too. And she's thinking about breaking up with Trangie... She says Rendy thinks the boys she used to like were "nerdy" (even though they weren't) and he's been prank-calling her since. (How immature and mean...) Is he the jealous type? I don't know... OOH! My sister's singing the old "Oh Ricky's Gone" song!!! Hehe, I haven't sung that song since I was in 4th grade!!! Hehe!!! XP (Now, I'm 8th. XP) Well, talk to you later. I'll get on to edit some more of my essay, and I'll add more to my post...if I remember anything. Bye! End of Post: 7:12 PM CST © 2004-2007 MiasmaMoon. All rights reserved.

Ni hao ma? O genki desu ka? Ne ne ne ne ne... What was that? Oh never mind it. I'm going crazy. Just read below. (I'll try to make it as short as I can!) Monday/Yesterday Um um... You guys... I'm forgetting... *brain shuts off* I'm dead now. Forget that! Anyways... Well, when I got into Science, our Science teacher asked, "Can I ask you guys for a favor?" and Sahil blurted out, "What? Do you need help with your relationship?" The teacher said "No..." then faked-out and started fake crying saying, "I need your help, Dr. Sahil..." *laughs* "Then Dr. Sahil says, 'Come here and sit down...'" ^^;; Basically, we need to help him make pictures of all the labs we did this whole year... We don't have any, so we would have to make it. (In my head, I was thinking, "Is that fraud?") Oh yeah... The teacher said "How do plankton get their food?" Julio yelled your "Your mom!" Then the teacher said "No, my mom does not go out and cook a meal for every little plankton there." (Of course, the answer was "chlorophyll", hehe.) We had our Social Studies class in the Computer Lab, and I sat by Kinjal and Nicole! Well, I told Nicole that I couldn't get her a Naruto headband because my parents wouldn't let me go to Shiokaze-con... Well, I started to talk to Kinjal since Kinjal asked me how to do some stuff. And then Anna just popped up behind Kinjal's back and mouthed the words to me: "She likes you". Then she started to say "Hello, I like to brush my teeth a lot and curl my hair!" (That was...odd. o_O;;) Well, we had to categorize American battles into the database and then we had to choose one of the battles we categorized and do a PowerPoint on it... In Health, we practiced our routine again. It was so hot, and no one was really doing anything... Before we left to go outside, I went over to Vyonne's desk, and I looked through her yellow CD case of CDs... She said she likes electro (which I found is kinda like techno, only urban-kinda) and Indie music... Ooh, interesting. She likes music that isn't too "mainstream"... (Too bad the rest of her group didn't like the music she brought.) Well, we sat outside, and basically, we only listened to a bunch of music... I mean, not really. Shan and Aleesha were trying to record all the songs that we were gonna do for our routine, but the tape recording kept messing up. We got frustrated... Oh my gosh. There was one part. Here, I'll tell you. Aleesha and Shan were dancing in front of a glass window, like we always do... (And you can see the reflection, but there are also people who can see what we were doing...) So Shan and Aleesha were "popping it", and the girl's gym coach, Ms. Henderson, looked at them, and tried to copy it. (OH MY GOSH!!! Actually, I didn't see it this time, but Nikita saw it... o_O;;) We had to show our routines (one time to the boy's Health coach, and one time to the girl's Health coach), and we didn't do so good, I think. Then the girl's gym coach came over later, and the girls were "popping" it at the window again, so the teacher looked at the mirror, put her hands up and stretched them, and tried to do it, kinda. (All of us saw it, and we laughed and screamed. Andrew/Sai, who was right IN FRONT of her, screamed "Ahh... My eyes.") Well, when I was in that lunch line, there was some kid laughing and going, "Oh my gosh... A girl talked to me... *starts to breathe hard* I need my inhaler..." (He was imitating a nerd or something???) And then that gothic-guy with the long hair used a preppy voice and said "Like, could you do my homework?" (What's he insisting here?) I told him "no". And then he asked if he could cut me in line. (Oh well. I let him. But what's with the accents???) In Art, Melissa got a red stuffed bear with the Mexican flag on it! Its name is Osito, and it's from that TY toy market thing. (The one with its tag as the red heart?) Hehe, I used it, and talked Spanish through it. Melissa says when I talk in Spanish, my voice sounds weird. Noo, it's not that. It's because I use a high-pitched voice when I talk through stuffed animals...) Hehe, and all through that day, we kinda practiced talking Spanish at the beginning... Then for our watercolor project, we chose some pictures from magazines and tore them out... (I chose a picture of a beach with palm trees and deep blue water... So pretty...) For ELA, we got yelled by the teacher because we didn't finish our work on Friday...or even start on it, for that matter... So we kept reading "The Giver" on tape recording... Ms. Neuls (one of the counselors) came in to drop Jonathan off for some reason, and when he moved, she kicked him in the balls. (I don't think it was on purpose, she just popped her leg back, I think.) She said to the class, with large opened eyes, "You did not just see that." Then she kinda said softly, "I could lose my job doing that..." Hehe, poor Jonathan... He keeps getting kicked "in that area"... (It also happened last Friday, and he was crouched down, like, at the back part of the classroom, by the bookcase... ^^;;) Well, early in the morning, my parents had left to go to Palacios, a little small town by Houston... And by the time they came home, they still weren't home... It wasn't until 7-8 PM that they came home. And we had no more ink in the printer!!! GRR!!! So I asked my dad to drive me so he could buy more ink... My mom also wanted us to pick us some stuff... So we stopped by Wal-Mart. We bought some sandwich stuff and some salad. I also wanted to check to see if they had printer ink in Wal-Mart, so I went over to Electronics and such. I asked a person who worked there by the photo department, "Excuse me, but do you sell printer ink?" She said "Check in Electronics." "...But I am in Electronics." "I mean check behind you." OKAY, that was weird... Telling someone to go to Electronics when you were already in the Electronics department!!! Oh well. I checked. There was no printer ink. Well, I walked around, and in the make-up area, I saw Jackie! (The Vietnamese girl with highlights and is short and goes to my church.) Well, I waved "hi" to her, and her little brother, with a baby stroller, waved "hi" and got Jackie, and she saw me and we said "hi" and I walked off. (Her brother looks AWFULLY A LOT LIKE KHANG!!!) Well, we went to the check-out lane, and a woman behind me asked if I could hold her cart for her while she went to go get something. So she left... And time passed, and I kept pulling her cart up. XP Well, we payed out her stuff, and she still wasn't there, and there was a Filipino woman behind us, clearing her throat in that...mean way, and then the lady came back to her cart. She said "Thanks", and I said "You're welcome." Oh yeah! Jackie's mom and dad were in front of us in the line, and then Jackie came running back to the line when they had left... I told her "Your parents were just here and they already payed and left." She said "I know, I just went back to get something." (She had a movie, DVD, I think, in her hands, and she kept jumping around lanes... @_@) Well, guess what? While we were driving from Wal-Mart, and were on SH 6, my dad had a hard choice of choosing either going to Office Depot or Best Buy. We couldn't pass into the other lanes, so we had to go to Best Buy. (A car almost hit us, and blared its horn at us. o_O;;) But my dad said "Go to Home Depot" to buy printer ink. DUMB! YOU DON'T BUY ELECTRONICS FOR COMPUTERS AT HOME DEPOT!!! (I don't think he can tell the difference between "Home Depot" and "Office Depot". o_O;;) Well, wanna know something weird? I've been calling Highway 6 "Highway 8" all this time... WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?! Well, at Best Buy, I asked a really tall guy who worked there where the printer ink is. (Ya know, when you stand by a tall person and talk to them, it feels WEIRD. o_O;; He even crouched down to talk to me... Not crouch, but bent his back to the right.) Well, it was hard choosing the printer cartridges, since SOMEONE *points to dad* threw away the boxes and old cartridges!!! Well, I had to use my dad's cell phone to call home and ask Ricky for the printer brand. Well, I finally did get it, and my dad was looking at computer screen monitors. (Wow, there were a ton of them which were really clear... o_O!) My dad says that mouses suck. He says that those rolling balls are the best. It's like a mouse, only, there's a ball, and you drag that ball to move it... Ugh, those aren't good. I think they're called "trackballs"... Well, the line was so long (not really), but the line was slow-moving because there was only one check-out line open... And when I was waiting, there was a guy working there, and I thought it was my Science teacher, Mr. Jacoby, only without glasses, and thicker eyebrows. (I was like "Oh my gosh! What's he doing here?" But I realized it wasn't him. He had a deeper voice, I think too. o_O;;) Well, when my dad and I went back into the car, my dad said that they charge you more if you don't have membership. But the woman that was working in the check-out place asked for "Reward Zone", not membership. I tried to explain to him that it was different, and he called me "stupid" and that I didn't understand anything. (Um, he's only been to this store, like, 2-3 times his entire life, and he's criticizing what I know about a store I've been to a lot??? GRR.) So I tried explaining it to him, and he didn't understand, so I said "Never mind", and he got angry and said that if I ever said "never mind" again, he would slap me... (He's so insensitive. He'll slap you even more if you cry.) Well, when I got home, and got in all the groceries, I ran up to the computer room and saw that one of the print cartridge boxes were gone!!! GRR! It was the black one! (How great... And I needed to print text.) I told my dad that one of them were missing, and he just got angry and started yelling at me about how I wasted $30-$40 of his money, and I asked for the car keys, and it was in the middle... o_O;; (It must've dropped when I tried to carry all the groceries with both my hands...) Well, I tried to put it into the printer, and GUESS WHAT?! THE PRINTER DECIDES TO MESS UP ON ME. It was kinda messed up when I turned it in, and when I put in the new cartridges, it just snapped off and SLAMMED ITSELF into the left side and kept on doing that!!! (GRR!!! Technology hates me!!!) So my mom kept yelling at me that I was doing it wrong, and my dad was yelling at me, saying I was doing it wrong, and my sister was pissed off by our nagging and yelling... (GRR, it took a lot of tries, but I got it fixed. NOW IT MAKES AN ANNOYING HUMMING NOISE WHEN I TURN IT ON...) I swear, technology hates me. Either that, or I have to make EVERYTHING perfect. I'm strange like that... I hope I don't have a disorder... o_O;; Tuesday/Today Well, in the morning, I got up and got ready for school, but I also tried to fix the printer... Didn't work. Annoying humming noise still going on. Technology hates me, I tell ya! Then I went downstairs and made a sandwich for breakfast... My mom was yelling about how we ALWAYS come down late to eat breakfast. -_-;; Well, in Science, we took fraud pictures!!! Yes yes, muahaha... We all pretended to do some labs from the earlier months of our class, and I told my teacher not to take a picture of a calendar that said "May" on his desk. XP Also, he couldn't take pictures of the same people over, since people are SUPPOSED to think it comes from throughout the year. How weird would it be that they saw us wear the EXACT same clothes each time we did a lab... ^^;; Well, we did a group photo, and when the teacher told Ashley to move closer to Ell.C., she just went "Ugh." He missed some people, so Jasmin and Taylor did a pose, and someone went "It's Charlie's Angels"! Julio said "I'm Charlie." ("Haha, yeah right." someone added.) Well, that was it. In Social Studies, we did more of our PowerPoint in class... Anna went on about her relationship... Wow, her boyfriend sounds abusive. Oh yeah. The Computer Lab teacher, Mrs. Cole, said "How do you set up this presentation?" (Or something like that.) Amit yelled out "Your mama!" (What the heck is it with these people and saying "your mama"?) Well, Chickamuaga is something the teacher couldn't spell... She spelled it..."Chickamoo--something"... ^^;; In Health, we practiced our dance routine in the gym hallway that no one seems to use. Well, we had to close the door since some of us kept going in and out... Well, we got some of the routine down... We broke up into groups and tried to help each other with freestyle and stuff, and I got paired with Mariah. We were practicing to "Lose My Breath", and she wanted me to do something like grabbing her heart, and her breathing, and stuff... It took me a while to get what she was saying, since other people around us was blaring their music out and practicing their routines... ^^;; But she said, "When you do it, try to look sexy." o_O;; But ugh, something weird happened. You see, while we were doing the dancing, we were breathing hard, and when she breathed hard out, I breathed hard in, and I think I swallowed some carbon dioxide or something... It wasn't bad breath or anything... (I was kind of dizzy for the rest of the time until the end of class... Not dizzy, but my throat felt like that.) Shan says that Erik and Andrew are getting on her nerves... (Poor them...) When Barbara was passing by, I saw a Naruto headband on her neck, and I asked if she went to Shiokaze-con. She did. (Aw, I should've gone!) Hehe. Ya know, I've noticed she's changed the way she's dressed... Or is it just me? o_O? Well, tomorrow, we have to dress alike. White shirts is all Shan could come up with... (She also wore her gym pants over her clothes so she wouldn't get her clothes dirty. o_O;;) In lunch, that gothic-guy was sitting by me, and he asked while I was eating "How come you sit like that? Are you afraid that he'll hit you or something?" (He was pointing to the guy on the left.) He thought I was timid or shy or something... I said to him "Do I really seem like that?" He nodded. But I told him we had structured lunch and I didn't sit with my friends. (Also, I didn't want to get food on my clothes!) But I didn't know I seemed like that. o_O;; Well, someone was throwing food into our table aisle... And Mark was asked to clean it up... So Mrs. Hopkins told him to get a broom, and he came back with a broom and dustpan and started sweeping up the food, and everyone around him just started laughing and teased him, and made it even worse by throwing more food into the aisle. (Those idiots... They act like it's funny to clean up stuff. o_O;; Even the nerdy short people were laughing...) I offered to help, but he wouldn't let me... Well, I had to fix my hair after lunch, and I took off my glasses since they were kinda hurting my eyes... Josue was in the bathroom, changing his shirt or something like that... (At first, I didn't know who was talking to me 'cause I couldn't see him... ^^;;) Well, in Art, I sat with Melissa and when she saw me, she said "You look...better without your glasses." (She kinda hesitated at the "..." to choose the right word for it... She almost said the word "hot" though... o_O;;) Paulisha came in later and we finally got blue and yellow paint! Yay! Well, I tried to take out the orange paint thing from the watercolor set and exchange it with another one, but I pushed hard on the back, and it flung the paint water onto my shirt, and now it has orange specks... Hehe, we were just practicing brush strokes and stuff, and Melissa and Paulisha were fake-fighting with each other saying "Shut up" or "You're ugly b!tch" and other stuff to each other... XP Hehe, it was funny... XP (I even added "I'm more prettier than you" in the conversation, and Melissa said "Yes you are!" ^^;;) Later, when the teacher was trying to teach how to do landscaping, Melissa and Josue were fighting with each other in Spanish, and Paulisha wanted to be in the conversation, so when they were speaking Spanish, and no one talked, Paulisha said "Something something." *laughs* In ELA, I was late because I was trying to fix my hair in the bathroom. (It's getting long now... ^^;;) Well, the teacher didn't care, and I had to get an extra chair since somehow my regular chair disappeared... o_O;;) We read a bunch of Anne Frank stories and stuff kinda related to the Holocaust and stuff... It was interesting, but I didn't finish all of it... Oh yeah! 8th Grade Day Away is almost here! Hooray! Hehe, we get to wear clothes out of dress code and stuff! Laura's thinking of buying some new stuff for the field trip... (I also learned that none of them have been to a field trip outside of the city and stayed in a hotel for a few days... o_O!) She brought up a weird thing... She said "If they were in those concentration camps, how did they use the restroom?" I told her that sometimes they had to "pee on themselves"... -_-;; Then she asked "What if a girl had her 'special time of the month'?" o_O;; (Weird question to ask...) Oh yeah. Laura got a free packet for those Hydraclear contacts. (It was like a test packet...) Ooh, they're so soft, but they feel like REALLY thin plastic... o_O;; (There was water in the packet, and it fell on Laura's pants, and she said "Oops, I peed on myself." o_O;;) Well, on the bus, Lance wanted me to sit with him. How odd... How come he isn't sitting with Terrence? And why isn't he sitting with me? Well, Jackie doesn't seem to like being friends with J.J. anymore... (Weird, eh?) But all he talks about is perverted stuff now... Ehh, J.J. kept SCREAMING out those perverted stuff, and Lance (I thought he was asleep) yelled "SHUT UP!" o_O;; Well, while J.J. and Michael were leaving, Alexis asked for a hug, but they wouldn't give it to her... So I sat in the seat in front of her and we hugged, except that she choked herself with the bus seat while we were hugging... o_O;; When we left, she wanted another hug. XP Lance also asked how come Andrew doesn't stop at his old stop. I told him that he moved. Well, when I came home, I wanted to eat, and my mom was yelling at my sister, eating her how to wash salad, and how she was listening to the news and how 5 people died from eating bagged salad containing E. Coli. (So she told us to put salt in it and wash it all out...) (She spelled E. Coli wrong. She spelled it: Alkaline or something like that. o_O;;) Well, when I got on the computer, I've been getting stressed about that printer and stuff. But I'm gonna try to forget about it!!! I mean, it's perfect, but it just makes a weird noise... (I swear, I want everything to be perfect that I kill myself... o_O;;) And I swear, the printer wants to eat my fingers. o_O (You know there are moving parts in a printer... And they move around, and I try to stick my finger in there... The bad thing is, sometimes you have to fix it while it's on, and that's not safe... GRR.) Well, I talked to Alaina and Chi and Trangie, and oh yeah! I also talked to Nene, who I haven't talked to in such a long time... ^^ Well, see you guys later. Bye!

But I Didn't Miss Jennifer's Birthday! <bgsound src="http://prophecymoon.tripod.com/cab.mp3" volume=100 loop=1 autostart=false> Enya Caribbean Blue ◙ Add me as a friend! ◙ Private message me! ◙ Backroom ◙ Log Out ◙ Home ◙ Portfolio ◙ Guestbook ◙ Quiz Results Start: 6:40 PM CST Hey guys!!! Hehe, yeah yeah, I know I should've posted yesterday, but eh... WHY DIDN'T I?! I HAVE NO IDEA!!! *screams* Saturday Well, I woke up probably somewhere around...9-10 AM? What did I spend that whole morning? Well, in the early mornings, I heard a LOT of wind and rain and stuff being pushed around outside, and yet, when I looked outside, there had been no evidence of rain... WEIRD. o_O;; Well, I called the Hyatt hotel in Houston to check on the Shiokaze-con, and what time it would start. The person who picked up had that EERIE happy-fake voice, and after being on hold for who-knows-how-many minutes, she told me to visit the site: www.shiokazecon.com... That didn't help! @_@!!! So around 9 AM, I went downstairs, and my mom wanted me to make pancakes!!! So yeah, I did... It was fun, I guess... And yet, it was time consuming... ^^;; (Who knows how long passed? Oh yeah. We also ran out of milk...) Well, the making the pancakes was a bit...hard. I used an electronic-powered stove to fry them, and they turned out to be circular-shaped...kinda. Some of them were smaller and some were larger, but it was okay. XP (My dad said it tasted soo good, but he kept picking them off the plate and saying it was for my brother Ricky... -_-;;) Gosh, if he wants to eat them, why not say he wants to eat them? I got angry when people tried to eat my pancakes, since I wanted to finish the whole batch... But my mom called me "greedy". I'm not greedy! I just wanna finish all the batter in the mixing pan and then let them eat it! (She says by the time I finish, everyone would have collapsed of hunger. o_O;;) Well, there was a lot of batter... But I tried to use it in a metaphor for her. To me, eating the pancakes while I'm not finished is like them trying to eat raw meat while I'm trying to stir-fry food... But she said the pancakes were cooked already, and that I was just making up stuff so I could eat all the pancakes for myself!!! GRR... -_-;; Well, my brother was watching that "Pokemon: The Mastermind of Mirage Pokemon", and we both noticed that ALL THE CHARACTER'S VOICES WERE DIFFERENT!!! I remember a few months or weeks ago, that they said 4Kids changed all the actor's voices because it would be cheaper for them... GAH, it's all about money for them??? (Yeah, the woman that played Ash's voice played his voice for...8+ years, and now, she's being replaced... GRR.) Brock sounds like an old man now... Misty sounds almost the same (except the subtlety... When she yells, she sounds even more preppier...), and Ash's voice is a bit deeper... May sounds more...older, and Max, you can't really tell, except there's a slight subtlety... So after I was done with all that, I took out an apple, chopped it up, and I made apple syrup and poured it into a batch of pancakes. I asked my mom if it was "pretty", and she said "Oh my gosh... When you grow older, you're gonna be big." ("Big" as in "fat" I guess... She doesn't like me making anything with pure sugar, like caramel, or syrup.) Still, it was pretty... EXCEPT THE SYRUP WAS TOO THICK!!! (Add too much sugar into the syrup, and it will harden and become rock candy.) So guess what?! I couldn't go to the anime convention! My dad said it was an hour drive's away... (True that, it was by the Minute Maid Park in Houston... It was being held in downtown Houston...) Also that, he said I would be there for too long, and he would have to wait for me the whole day... -_-;; And he said it cost too much... ($25 to get into a convention? That's not so bad...) And then he went on about gas prices, and all that stuff... So yeah, I couldn't go. I spent my time on the computer, and I watched some anime with my sister on YouTube. Oh my gosh, I finally finished the whole series of "Air", and it made me cry, especially the last episode!!! I don't wanna spoil it for you, so I won't say anything... But you can watch it if you want. Trangie says she won't cry unless it's based on a true story... She says that gives her a REASON to cry... (o_O?) In the meanwhile, Chi was watching a Korean drama translated into Vietnamese... My dad came home with phõÒ later, and Diana and I ate it... After that, I went back up to watch an episode of "Cardcaptor Sakura", but my brother wanted to go on, so I had to leave... (I was talking to Chi and Trangie then...) Well, after that, my sister and I were home alone with my brother on the computer... I tried practicing making soft caramel, but it came out hard again... (Hehe, my sister and I like making shapes out of it... It almost looks like gold ribbon... ^^) And if you stretch it out long enough, it looks like hair. XP Well, my parents came back, and I just dissolved all the caramel outside in a bucket of water... But I looked at the bonsai pot by the group of trees. (I had left my bonsai tree outside to get some sunlight and a bit of water and stuff...) My tree wasn't there!!!! I thought I knew what happened to it... I looked in the garbage can, and there it was... GRR. (I KNEW it was my dad.) I came in the house, asking who broke my tree, and my mom pointed to my dad... GRR. I was so angry. I tried going upstairs to my room and repotting the tree, but the roots were gone already... I just went downstairs again... My dad "claims" that it was the strong winds from last night that broke the tree... But if it WERE broken by the wind, it wouldn't have been snapped off so cleanly... And the rocks would've still been there!!! (It looks like someone dug a hole around the plant...) So yeah, I was unhappy... And in the late night, my sister and I watched Inuyasha and Fullmetal Alchemist. Hehe, we haven't seen it in a long time... Ooh, it's Sara the flute player. I've seen part of that episode in Japanese... Very interesting. But it kinda ruined the ending for me... *sniffs* Quote: Hughes' Wife: It's here!!! Officer Hughes: The tea? Hughes' Wife: THE BABY!!! Hehe, my sister and I found that so funny... XP (Mrs. Hughes was pregnant with the baby, and they were celebrating Ed's birthday...) Sunday Well, I woke up in the morning, possibly around...8 PM... Hehe, I opened my window blinds, and the sun was shining through it! (Sounds weird, but the sun never shines through my bedroom window. I guess it moved since summer's coming.) Well, I took my laundry upstairs, started to listen to Dark Cloud and Suikoden video game music, and fold my clothes!!! ARGH, I hate it when the clothes get lint on them from the dryer machine... So I had to borrow my mom's lint cleaner and clean it all off... (Hey, my black shirts got restored! XP) After doing that, my family said to get ready for church!!! NOO!!! My parents said they would go to church in the afternoon! So I had very little time to bathe and get ready... -_-;; (Um, 12 minutes, I think it was...) Well, they rushed me out of the house without getting some stuff ready... -_-;; GRR. Oh well. (My sister kept banging on the bathroom door while I was shower, and my brother kept banging on my bedroom door when I was changing... -_-;;) Well, my sister and I sat at the far end of church again, but my parents spotted us. (We were sitting in the middle of an empty area... So yeah, they were bound to spot us.) But when they sat by us, my sister moved, and minutes later, I moved along with her. We sat by this man and his little kid... (I kept saying "hello" to the little boy...) But the little kid kept speaking really loudly in church, and I think he wanted to use the restroom, but couldn't find his way through the church... o_O;; There was a guy standing in front of me wearing a pink shirt with white and green stripes... Hehe. XP Anyways, after the mass, I went towards the food market place in the front part of the church, but I got shoved around by people wanting to buy food... When most of the traffic finished, I bought fried rice and a Coke... Yum. ^^ Well, I was eating a meatballs-on-a-stick and kinda talking to Diana, who was a bit pissed off, and my parents were talking to one of their friends about their boat or something like that... Well, I sat by a desk in the corner of the front of the church, eating my fried rice, when Khang came to me, and Lac-Hong came too!!! My sister came a bit later too, carrying my schoolbooks and hers. (Khang was wondering where mines were when he first came up to me.) Khang started calling my sister "ugly", and she took my black India ink marker and stabbed into Khang's forehead. (The cap was off!!!) Well, Lac-Hong said that she wasn't THAT mean to Khang... (My sister was in a pissed-off mood right then.) Well, Andy and my idiot brother Ricky came up to us then, but Ricky left later... Khang was offering us those Dum-Dum mini lollipops, and Andy kept fussing about how coconut was gonna kill him... Khang: *hands him coconut lollipop* Andy: Are you trying to kill me?! I'm allergic to coconut!!! Khang: *hands him mysterious-flavored lollipop* Andy: Are you crazy?! IT MIGHT BE COCONUT!!! Me: *unwraps lollipop and starts to suck on it* It's apple. Well, after that, Khang ran off to chase someone... I forgot who... o_O;; Well, Lac-Hong threw Khang's book into the trash bin right next to us, and we made a run for it... (Lac-Hong and I ran off to the far right corner of the church, and Khang started to run after us, but Anthony and Khang caught me, and then they ran after Lac-Hong, who was sitting with Andy by the piano.) So we sat by Andy, and Khang, Lac-Hong, Ricky, a Thieu Nhi (blue handkerchief), and I were sitting by him, listening to him. (He was practicing for his piano recital...) Okay, so Lac-Hong didn't want to go to her Giao Ly class, so Andy GRABBED HER BY HER LEGS AND STARTED DRAGGING HER OFF TO CLASS!!! I stopped him from dragging her, telling him "Can she just walk to class?" and then told him "Isn't that considered harrassment?" He told me "Yes, but I'm doing it for a good reason." o_O;; (He even chased her off to class just to make sure she would stay!!! WEIRD. o_O;;) Anyways, Andy, Khang, and I went to the food place to help sell food, and Ricky and Anthony came by later to...bother us. I spent the time sweeping again, and Andy said "You work too hard!" *hands the broom to Ricky* "You work too less! Get sweeping!!!" (Hehe. XP) Hehe, Andy tried stabbing people with a shish-kabob stick and covering their faces with a plastic bag... (Gah, he's harrassing his customers... ^^;;) Well, Kieu Thu came by a little bit after, and she just wanted to check on something... Well, I told Andy that they lost my community service time papers... (I had 36 hours, but they said I only had 8!!! GRR!!!) He offered to sign me a paper... ^^ (Hooray. ^^ But was he allowed to? He was an advisor or whatever, so maybe.) He signed me 6 hours, even though I was only there for an hour or two... ^^;; Well, Kieu Thu and that girl (I think her name's Laura) came with cookies. Chocolate chip, and two chocolate chip cookies stuck together with a rainbow-colored marshmallow stuff and peanut butter. The marshmallow was 50 cents, and the regular was 25... Hehe, Laura made them herself... She said, "Don't they look nice?" and pointed to the rainbow marshmallows. XP Then that little boy came (the boy that tried to throw rocks at the cars a few weeks earlier) and asked if he could get some food for free... I told him "Sorry, but you have to pay money..." He even tried to bargain with us by giving us a half-full bottle of water, and Khang even said "Gimme your whole Yu-Gi-Oh! deck, and you can have this whole plate of cookies!" Ooh, that little girl... I think her name was Angie... Well, anyways, I asked her if she wanted to buy some cookies... She didn't say anything... Well, I bought a cookie, two cookies on top of each other with marshmallows in the middle, and I ate it... But I got some of marshmallows on my shirt... I went into the restroom to get it off, and when I came back, that little girl said "Do you know it's her birthday?" (At first, I thought she meant Kieu Thu and said "It's not her birthday..." But it was Jennifer's. ^^) Well, that little girl's friend came over and bought the cookie for her. Heh, I remember when I was like that. I was afraid to buy stuff for myself, so I gave my friends the money and asked them to buy it for me. XP (But that was like, first grade. XP) It's so weird though... Maybe it's just me, but everytime when that girl's around me, she gets kinda shy... o_O;; (Or is she like that to everyone??? Because she seems really nice and comfortable with other people... Or is that just her friends???) The group played BC or Thirteen or whatever, and it was fun...I guess... (Anthony said the cards looked like credit cards.) Also, Anthony and Khang had a little "yo mama" fight and it was kinda...weird. Anthony had no good comebacks, and Khang's made no sense... But I stood up for him. XP Well, later on that time, Anthony tried to make some comebacks, but they made no sense at all. I told him, "Sometimes, I think you don't even realize that you're saying." Chi came by, and at that time, I was sweeping around a Coke can that someone had dropped... (Andy was mopping.) Khang took the mop and tried to mop the rest of the front of the church, but the woman who was helping us sell the food was yelling at him, since he was mopping the area around the door entrances. (But you have to admit, some parts are sticky...) Well, after doing that stuff, the bell rang, and we had to get to class... Hum, hehe, Khang, Andy, and I stayed in class, but we learned that the teacher was there exactly the right time today!!! NOO! Well, we had our final exam!!! I had to ask Khang for the meaning of some words because I wasn't so fluent, but yeah. I think I made a good grade. We also had to read a poem, and I think I did good with that too... It's just that... By the time the bell rang, I don't think I finished at least 3-5 questions... Oh well. I walked out of class, and my sister got free white chocolate... That Hershey's Milk and Chocolate thing... Well, after that, I met up with Chi, and together, we looked for her cell phone (Chi had lost her cell phone), asking Tay Bich where the office was, and then Quang, who told us to look for Anthony. So we ran around the whole church, looking for this "Anthony", so we went back to Quang, and Chi and Dai were with their father... Quang called Anthony, and so far, no one has turned in anything to the cell phone/lost and found place... Aw... But Confirmation class had already started... Jennifer yelled "Get in here!" XP So at first, we reviewed for our Confirmation final exam... Hehe, and after that, we were moved into the pews in the church so that we wouldn't share answers with each other... But Diana was right next to me, and yet, she wasn't in my classroom... What else... (Oh yeah. I was gonna restring my shoelaces, but I didn't get the chance.) Um um... There was a part I didn't get about saints, and I asked Kieu Thu, and she said she went over it, but I didn't remember it... She gasped at me... ^^;; "Travis, shame on you..." ^^;; I finally did get the answer... Diana kept talking to me kinda during the test... Well, I came back into the classroom, and Chi was reading a book called "Sphere-Land", and it's a book about where everyone is a shape, except for women, who are lines. (Hehe, in a story, Little Red Riding Hood killed a wolf with her body. o_O;;) You see, in the story, if you touch a line (woman), you die. (Think of the woman as a knife, and yeah.) And the males are shapes... The more sides you have, the more smarter you are. (Triangle being stupid, a circle being a genius.) But how does a line have a child with a shape??? I know, I know, it's confusing, and it just confused me even more... But I guess it was kinda interesting. XP Oh well, just read it. After that, the whole TA group came in, singing "Happy Birthday" to TA Jennifer and Quang playing the song on guitar, and we all clapped... Hehe, for a second there, I forgot it was her birthday!!! XP After eating cake (two helpings!) and drinking soda (only 1/3 of the cup was full!!! But I got 2 cups!) Chi and I drew pictures, of us in animal form... o_O;; (I drew a creepy-looking old guy, and Chi drew me as a creepy-looking rabbit. Hum, and I drew a picture of me cooking Kai, the penguin. XP) Oh yeah... They called me up to see my grade, and for a second there, they scared me because they said I didn't have all my community service hours in, but I did! Jennifer said "Oh, didn't I do this last week?" She said, and she fixed it all right. XP Well, TA Jennifer said for us to be quiet, and then she pointed to the candles and said "I'm too old for this!" (She had that funny, sarcastic sound in her voice. XP) Well, guess what? After moving the chairs and the tables back to their places (Kevin made me hit the folded table on a guy's butt... -_-;;), we had to stay back and go outside to the church and clean up all the stuff we saw... I just folded up the pews... XP (Andy said "That's not cleaning!!!") And ew, I found a band-aid. (Didn't touch it.) Well, Diana and Nickkie and Ricky asked how come I couldn't leave, and I said "The class was talking a lot, and we have to stay back for half an hour and clean up the church!" They said: Oh. Well, they didn't make us stay for half an hour, and we all ran outside... Oh, and I showed Natalie the picture... After that, my sister wanted me to buy her shrimp bread... I went up to the food market and asked how much it was, and asked for shrimp and banana bread, but the woman didn't understand me. (GRR, my Vietnamese must be horrible to the older people!) Well, I just shook my head, meaning "never mind". Well, my dad just laughed and said I was cheap and I never used my own money. I said "Dad, you're a liar!" in Vietnamese, and he just laughed and the old lady heard me too... The old lady said I was good looking... o_O;; Well, I saw Tay Robert again! Me: Hi Tay Robert! I don't see you teaching *points to Confirmation class* class anymore. Tay Robert: Well, I have...other things to do now. So how are you? Did you do well in your test? Me: Yeah, it was easy. Tay Robert: Heh, of course it was easy. I didn't make the test. (Hehe, his tests were hard... XP) Oh, and I saw Sonja again! I miss talking to her... She was so fun to be with... ^^ We just talked a bit, and she asked if I was going to church, but I told her "No, I already went to church in the morning..." She asked "Well, come again..." But I couldn't, and then we all headed to the truck... My dad got angry when I kept talking about him talking about me to the old lady... I hate it when my parents talk stuff about that isn't true!!! They clump me in with my brother and sister, and think all of us have the same emotions, the same personalities. (For God's sake, my parents don't even say my name right!!!) ...Sad, isn't it? Actually, that's not true...kinda. ^^;; We passed the "Cajun Kitchen", the restaurant that Khang's uncle owns... Ooh, I should go visit there some day... And I just noticed the building its in got painted orange-y... ^^;; Well, my dad drove to the water place to get the water bottles refilled... My sister and I sat in the car, eating bread... She said that she lost all her allowance that day, since she handed that woman $5 and the woman gave her $5 worth of bread, even though my sister only wanted one loaf... ^^;; Well, she handed me the bag, and I started to pretend to much on the plastic bag, going "Nya... Nyaa... Nyaa..." (I sounded like Shellder from Pokemon. XP) She just laughed and said I sounded like a bug...or Cloyster. ("Shellder", I corrected her. "Whatever!" she said. ^^;;) I wanted to head to Fun-Plex to play Double DDR, but we didn't go through that street. "Oh," I said. ^^;; Well, my sister and I went into the house, carrying the bread, and when I came back outside to help, my brother called me lazy... -_-;; Well, I got on the computer, and I've been here since... Oh yeah!!! The Pleasure Island thing was today, and Trangie had a fun time with Rendy! Ah, I wished I could've been there, but my parents thought we would cry and whine and want to go back home. (I'm not five, ya know. o_O;; See? They know nothing about me... ^^;; This conversation was while we were driving to church, so ya know.) ...It's been 31 years since the Communists invaded South Vietnam... Oh yeah!!! Hongie's having her Confirmation soon, and for the summer, she's moving up to Houston with her mom so she can go work at her mom's place!!! Hehe, I want to visit her in the summer!!! But to do that, I would have to work with Hong... Hehe, but Hongie's mom owns a nail salon, and I would be in a nail salon all summer... ^^;; (Do you guys find that weird? A middle-school/almost-high school boy working in a nail salon???) But really, all Hongie is gonna do is answer the phone of the salon... ^^;; Well, I think I'll go now... Bye bye! P.S. My posts seem to get longer with each and every day, neh? Or maybe it's becuase my life's getting more and more interesting... ^^ (Hehe! XP) End: 8:24 PM CST Edit: 8:30 PM CST Well, Suc Fa is here! (My mom doesn't want me to call her Ah Fah anymore because I'm not supposed to, and it confuses people...) Well, they're having a little dinner together, and there's lots of laughing and stuff and talking and eh... XP Um, this edit is later... But An Suc's older brother's wife and Suc Fah came and looked at Diana and I on the computer, and they left pretty soon after that. Diana and I spent the rest of the night playing online games like Cartoon Network and stuff... And we had root beer... Hehe. © 2004-2007 MiasmaMoon. All rights reserved.

GRR, MyOtaku's based on Eastern Time... ^^;; Thursday In Algebra, since Paige, Madiha, and I were the only people to solve a particular Algebra problem, we were the first people to leave, and everyone had to leave AFTER we left. So Madiha and Paige were trying to walk as fast as they could, and I just laughed, and Georhan threatened me with "If you don't leave, I'm gonna beat you up!" XP (Or was it "kill you"? XP) But still, even with the free-time thing, they still had to wait for their friends to come too. XP Well, we practiced our dance routine! Hehe, it was bright and sunny, and yet, it was hot, so we were kinda sweating... We practiced, but there were a bunch of people staring at us while we were practing the routine, and some were laughing and pointing. XP ("Temperature" was the song we practiced with.) Andrew says that the routine is easy, and all that we have to do are steps and jumping jacks, but really, he's doing nothing!!! -_-;; Hehe, Shan called me and Mark her men because we were doing it along with her, and the others weren't helping. The coach thought that all the boys weren't helping though... ^^;; I learned all the girl's names: Aleesha, Shan, Nikita (dunno if that's spelled right), and Mariah. Mariah was in my TAKS testing site, so yeah! XP (She was also for the GT testing too, I think. XP) At first, I was just embarassed to dance with them because I felt uncomfortable SINCE NONE OF THE OTHER GUYS WANTED TO DO IT!!! But Nikita and Mariah and the other girls helped me, and we helped the other guys out... ^^ The other teams are doing regular stuff, like exercise, but we wanna do something...original. XP (But we can't do perverted-looking dances in school, ya know.) In Art, Melissa, Paulisha, and I just finished the rest of our watercolor patterns. So yeah... Hooray! XP Usage of watercolor, payon, glazing, etc. Hehe, I made a little inkblot picture with some of the watercolors (brown, green, and purple), and I asked Melissa and Paulisha to tell me what they saw. Melissa saw so many things, like two wolves, clouds, and a bunch more I couldn't name... XP Hehe, I could figure that she has a fantasy mind by telling all the little animals and stuff she named... ^^ Oh yeah. I noticed that Melissa has a Hispanic guy friend walking with her, and he keeps asking who I was... XP Well, our teacher wasn't here with us today, so we read the "Anne Frank" play some more, but some people didn't keep up with what to read, and people had an emotionless voice. -_-;; Oh yeah! In the bus, I sat by J.J., Michael, and Alexis! (I just learned her name! She was that girl who wore Inuyasha stuff and goth stuff.) They were listening to music on Michael's DVD player, and J.J. was talking about a joke, asking people to hold his cock... (It means "chicken", mind you!) So yeah, after J.J. and Michael left, I learned Alexis's name, and we talked a little bit about our favorite animes... XP OH YEAH!!! I forgot to give my parents the awards ceremony paper on Wednesday, so by the time I remembered, my parents went somewhere, and by the time they got home, around 8 PM, the awards ceremony was over. Wah, I wanted to go. (But eh. I couldn't have dressed nice in the time I had, I had no ride since my parents weren't home...) But I wonder what awards I got... Hmm. Friday Well, I woke up in the morning, did a spyware check (GRR, I'M SO OBSESSED ABOUT THE HEALTH OF THE COMPUTER NOW!!!), then went to go take a shower, and got ready for school, while my sister was using the computer to play "Gaia Online"... Well, in Science, the teacher was telling us about his past job again... As a pest control person. And he said that beef is usually 98% beef. Wanna know why? In those factories, those large tanks of meat that make ground beef usually mix rat meat, rat skeletons, and rat droppings into your meat. Sounds nasty, eh? But no matter how much you try to kill all the rats, they'll always have some kind of rat stuff in your beef, so yeah... o_O;; The same thing with his story about trying to clean a bread factory... He'd find boxes full of rats in the factory, and he'd kill them... o_O (He said when you kill a rat, they make a lot of blood. o_O;; But they usually drown them.) Hehe, another story! One time, my teacher had to go clean an apartment room for carpenter ants, and when he went in, the whole apartment room was a mess! Pillows, blankets, beer were everywhere (they were college students) and he didn't take off his shoes, so he was tracking mud everywhere... ^^;; He went into one room, and he saw these terraniums and aquariums, and he turned, and he saw an African bullfrog, like, the size of...put your arms in a circular shape and that's how big it was... o_O! And by him, there were two tanks. In one tank, there was a giant snake... In another...the lid was open. o_O;; (He panicked, and he started kicking the blankets and pillows around, and he saw the python squirming around in the blankets... There was an overturned couch too. o_O;;) He said he screamed, and it must've sounded like a high-pitched girl's scream. (Hehe, the whole class laughed when they heard that. XP) He just ran out of the apartment room, locked the door, and never came back ever again. XP He says that if you want to tell the most stories and you want a good job with good pay ($500 a month, he says), then be a pest control person for one year... (Nah, I wouldn't want to be around that kind of stuff. ^^;;) Ooh, a cool trick I learned!!! The teacher taught us how to hypnotize a chicken. First, you hold the chicken by its legs and you calm it down... Then put the chicken on the ground and put his body straight out and keep him still until he calms down... Then draw a line with a stick or your finger, going away from his eyes... That chicken's expression should be like this: o_O (Hehe, the teacher didn't believe his friend when he said to do that, but it did happen! XP Jasmin did that one time, she said, and she thought the chicken was dead. She was like "OH MY GOD! WE KILLED THE CHICKEN!" Her brother: "That chicken ain't dead.") Basically, you have to throw it into the air to make it wake up again. Why does it go like that? Well, the chicken doesn't have enough brain cells to concentrate on the line you draw when it's calm... o_O;; Ooh, the teacher got an egg with a little chick inside, and Jasmin started playing with it, calling it "Chick Chick"! XP Ruth asked "How do you draw an egg?" Ashley was like "Why do you need to draw an egg? Easter's over!" Oh, and Joeli kept coming into our room, then going back out to catch up with her class. XP (And the teacher was trying to look for "The Man in the Moon" on an Internet photo of the moon. XP) In Social Studies, I still promised that Naruto headband I was gonna buy for Nicole... Ooh, and we watched more history videos! (of Frederick Douglass and Clara...something.) For that Clara person, Amit asked "Wasn't she the woman that made the flag for the U.S.?" (Teacher: "That's Betsy Ross.") Oh yeah. Ruth showed me her Spanish restaurant menu and it looked good. Hehe, I was translating what the Spanish words said, and Kinjal and some others were like "You know how to speak Spanish?" (People are so surprised about that... XP) In Health, Nikita, Mariah, and I were the only ones practicing our routine!!! Shan and Aleesha were talking with their friends and stuff, and the other guys (Mark, Andrew, and Erik) didn't want to work on the stuff... We kinda jump roped at first, but that was it. Erik and Andrew were swinging their jump ropes around... XP Well, some teachers came to us, and they wanted to watch us do our routine... ^^;; (Nikita was the only one doing it, and I was kinda embarassed, but yeah, I still did it with her. XP) Well, Aleesha and Shan came back, and we practiced on our routine a little bit more... But Nikita and I were getting a bit frustrated... No one was really trying to practice, and we kept going over the same thing over and over... ^^;; Hehe, when I was doing some of the steps, Shan looked at the way my feet were moving and asked if I was that "that boy that always plays that 'game' at Fun-Plex". I'm sure she meant DDR, and I didn't ALWAYS play it, but yeah, I did. (She was so surprised when I said "yeah". XP) Well, Andrew's still avoiding me. Kinda. At the beginning of class, Erik and Andrew were playing a game of trying to get a coin from Andrew's hand. I just wanted to see the coin (I thought it was a dollar quarter) but Andrew wouldn't let me... Oh yeah. He also hit me when I tried to pat him. o_o;; (He has problems.) Oh yeah! Some girls came outside, and the girls were "popping it" (if you know what that means in modern hip-hop dancing) and the girl's Health teacher, an obese old lady, copied them, and everyone was like "OH MY GOSH!!!" (Can you imagine one of your teachers doing that??? o_O?? I didn't see her do it though, but the others saw, and their expressions were like: o_O!!!) Well, at lunch, I sat with Christian and Erik and I drew a bit (a pine tree!) to get rid of some of my stress... (Christian and Erik were drawing "Mortal Kombat" characters fighting each other. XP) Oh yeah... When I was eating, Cosmo was criticizing the way I eat... o_O;; What's wrong with the way I eat? (So I'm not supposed to chew??? What? @_@?) In Art, I sat with Melissa today, and we're finished with our watercolor patterns chart. And now, we're starting to work on the actual picture! Hehe, I'm thinking of doing an island paradise kind-of thing... (I kept thinking of Destiny Island when I planned it out. XP) Oh, Melissa and I just talked about random stuff, like friends, and getting lost about stuff, and yeah. Oh yeah! Melissa has a guy friend! XP I wanna meet him. XP (He asks Melissa about me, I think. XP) Okay, her duck pot has harden, and it's so cute!!! And my pig pot has hardened too, and it's soo cute! But the tail seems...cracked. o_O;; Okay, when I went into ELA, it was all right. We did more of the play of "Anne Frank" and I got to read the sad part at the end... Well, no, Anne's character read this... "Despite in all that has happened, I truly believe that people are good at heart." That's so sad!!! (I felt tears, but no one noticed... ^^;;) No one else wanted to do work after that, so we just talked, even though we had something to do... But no one knew what to do. Hehe, Bao called the teacher "Mrs. Nuzrat's mom"! (Yes, her mom is the teacher. XP) Bao asked Nuzrat, "What's your last name?" (He wanted to know what to call her. XP) But eh, even I sometimes call my friends "Mr./Mrs. (friend's name)'s dad/mom!" I told Yomilet how my T.V. would turn on by itself at the middle of the night and even though you press "Off", it wouldn't turn off. She said that was creepy... Jonathan kept playing with the remote control, and he said "Man, this doesn't have cable." I said "Check channel 4" because the basic channels are usually on the smaller channels. He thought I said "a channel with porn"... o_O;; (I told "FOUR", and he was like, "Oh, I thought you said channel with porn, and I was like, where?! Show me!") Gosh, Jonathan's such a weirdo... ^^;; But even when Jonathan didn't have the remote control, the T.V. would turn on by itself... DUN DUN DUN! (And the teacher would blame him for that, even though he was nowhere near it. o_O;;) But there was nothing on the T.V. Just static... (Angelie and Yomilet says it reminds them of "Silent Hill"... o_O;;) Laura was talking about planning her Quinceanera, and I asked: Me: Where are you holding it? Laura: Here. Me: In the school? Laura: What? Me: Your Quincea-- Laura: Oh, I thought you meant where we are. Me: So where are you holding it? Laura: What? Tia: I think he means where you're holding your party or... Me: Yeah, your Quinceanera. Laura: Oh! Um, I don't know. That was...strange. XP Oh yeah. What's strange is, Roy wanted to play the part as Anne. ^^;; Well, as I was walking towards the bus, I met up with Jereme and Chloe, introduced them to Zaki,a nd Jereme dragged me by my backpack into a hallway to take my picture with her...cell phone camera, I think. Hehe, she wants a picture of all her friends, and she has a lot of pictures of Chloe. XP Well, I sat with Alexis (the girl I met) and we talked about a lot of stuff... She's an anime fan, and she's just moved here from a town by Mexico... Her mom acts racist about anime and Chinese and Japanese stuff 'cause her dad ran off with a Chinese woman... (Poor mom.) But because of that, she's racist to Arab people too. (Her dad's Arab.) We talked about a bunch of stuff... Hehe, I asked her, "Are you Hispanic?" She said "Yeah... You're like the first one to ask me that. Everyone thinks I'm white. Hehe." Well, after that, I got home, ate some Church's fried chicken, and I did a bit of stuff... Oh yeah! I'm currently having a chat with all the MyOtaku people!!! It's so big!!! @_@ Vicky, Shadow (left), Hinaru (left), Enin, Shanny, Vanessa, SomeGuy, Red, and Nami-chan! ^^ I'm also chatting with Chi (not currently) and Trangie! I was talking to some of the MSNers with Skype, and I hadn't used it in so long!!! Oh yeah! Today's Evil's and Shadow's birthday!!! Go to their sites and wish them a "Happy Birthday"! So far, Rendy's skipped pack and he ran away from home, and the police are looking for him. He's also planning to kill three people. o_O! If he's found, he'll be put in jail. Well, talk to you later. Bye! OH YEAH!!! Tomorrow's Shiokaze-con, and this will be my first anime convention!!! But I want Otemba to come too! I think she might, but I haven't had contact with her, so I dunno!!! Hmm... I could try her house phone number. Now, where did I put that number...? But it's past midnight, so she might be asleep. GRR. And I need to finish that laundry. GRR.

Lately, my computer's been messing up... Like today, the Flash stuff wouldn't work, and I had to do a System Restore... -_-;; Does the computer hate me??? Why was I trying to fix the Flash? Well, my sister wasn't able to play "Gaia Towns" on Gaia Online, so I tried to fix it, and then I messed it up, and it took a while to fix. -_-;; (I'M GONNA DESTROY MY COMPUTER ONE DAY AND LAUGH!!!) Wait... No I won't. ^^;; Anyways... Well, I got on the computer a little bit... Actually, no. My sister got on because she wanted to play "Gaia Online", but it didn't work for her for some reason... So we tried uninstalling, but we turned off the computer since the bus was about to come... (And that's how the whole computer problem I explained earlier happened... -_-;;) Well, when I went to go sit in the gym in the morning, there was a fight going on!!! Yeah... o_O;; Two black guys were making a fight in the bleachers, and then Mr. Ebunilo (my Algebra teacher) came up there and...I think he yelled at them or something...or hurt them physically, I dunno. (I didn't even bother to stand up. Why are these people so...fight-wanting?) Well, there was a lot of clapping when my Algebra teacher did something (still dunno what though) and yeah... In Science, we worked on the ocean floor graphing and stuff, and Kinjal got interested about that virus talking thing stuff yesterday, and she wanted Mr. Jacoby to explain it more... XP Oh yes! He's also telling us they're gonna computerize the school next year! They're gonna add electronic boards (where you can write and delete and it hooks up to the computer) and a little thingy where you can press a button to answer a question. Like, let's say you're taking a quiz. Instead of taking out paper and writing it, you just press the buttons on a little remote control, click "Send", it automatically grades it, and then it's saved into the grade book... Ooh, school's getting technological, eh? XP In Social Studies, we watched more of that "Underground Railroad" video. Ooh, Nicole was here with us today. I also talked with Ruth at the beginning of class a bit before and about cell phones and how our cell phones were taken away from us. XP (Her free time started at 7 PM, and mines at 9 PM, and she was so surprised of mines... ^^;;) In Algebra, my teacher passed out some papers for some of us, and we're invited to an Awards Ceremony. Each teacher is awarding 5 awards to the students they chose in the class according to "Citizenship", "Most Improved Boy", "Most Improved Girl", "Best Boy", "Best Girl"... (The "best" ones aren't the actual names, but that's what it means...) Hehe, Georhan thought he was gonna be one of the "Most Improved" ones because he went from an F to the beginning of the school year to A-B grades. XP But Madiha added, "What if a kid acts good for the year, and then when they get the award, they start acting bad after that?" The teacher explained it's only for before the award, and if they do act bad, it's gonna count in their future. He added, "Like a student is going to act good for the whole year, and then after they get the award, they go out and kill someone." (The whole class just breaks out laughing. XP) He also said "A student can't act good for the whole year just to get an award. Their true nature will eventually show." We also learned that ELA in the past was called "English" (no dur XP) and they had to learn proverbs... "A stitch in time saves nine", etc... There was an interesting one. I don't remember the proverb exactly, but he used an example of a person going to war. (It was about being prepared earlier helps.) I learned that a war used to be clean and neat. Like, in Medieval Times, a king would call another country if he was angry with them and declare a war. They would tell where they would go and what time. (Usually it was in an empty field.) Then they attacked each other. But as the years went by, wars got more sneakier... o_O;; Well, after Algebra, I said "hi" to Chloe and San Nhi... I headed to Health and I read the board and it said we had to watch a program-thing at the gym and then we would go back to practicing our dance routine. But when we went into the gym, it was only for people that were going to Bush... XP Hehe, the others went into the field... I heard some guys that were going to Travis say "You know what Bush has done to our country? And now you gonna go to a school named after him?" *laughs* Oh, it was windy outside. I left my books on the bleachers outside, but the wind blew a bunch of my papers out, and I ran to pick them up, but some flew over a gate. A guy asked "Hey, do you need those papers?" and he helped open the gate so I could get my papers. ^^ Hehe, just random games in the field. Urr, Calvin was drawing something by scraping an iron pole on the cement, and someone said it looked like the Nazi sign. (To me, it looked like an A with a circle around it... o_O;;) Uh, Danny (the spiky-haired one) said "hi" to me in a happy voice and waved his hand and grinned largely. (^^;; Hehe, since when does that he do that to me? XP) He also told me "no no" and wagged his hand when I tried to pick up the iron poles to put them back in place. XP Um, Tien, Danny, Ed, and Mohammad were playing random games, and Troy and his group were practicing karate moves, and it's just amusing to watch them play. ^^;; Hehe, Troy said I had "honor" because I didn't fight back when he tried to attack me... ^^;; LaDre doesn't think I know karate, but he's wrong about that... ^^;; Well, for lunch, I ate really late since I was at the back of the line again. Oh yeah! When I was in the lunch line, I found out that Nicole was hired by Andrew...to do something. XP (But that's old news. XP) And I ran towards Art room, and the tardy bell rang RIGHT when I got into the room and Devon and Bao were saying to the teacher loudly "He's late!!!" (o_O;;) The teacher said "The cast-iron skillet calls the burnt pot black" (something like that!) and the teacher said "Do you know what a skillet is?" Devon replied "A skillet is gray, not black." And the teacher replied "A cast-iron skillet is black." (Basically it meant that someone who's always tardy will blame another person if they're tardy...) Well, I'm finished doing my watercolor styles and it's pretty nice...I think. XP (I think I finally know how to use watercolor markers like Crayola and make them...gradient. XP) Well, at the end, the teacher was telling us a story about when she had her honeymoon, she bought a watercolor picture from a man in San Francisco who made copies of the same watercolor picture and did it all by hand!!! (Ooh... o_O!) And she showed us another picture by a lower-famed painter named (teacher's maiden name) who painted it in college and when she got married, changed her name to (teacher's name after marriage). XP (Everyone then just realized it was painted by the teacher herself. XP) She had to pick a place in Houston (she chose downtown Houston) and she had to paint what she saw and her teacher had to tell where it was, or they wouldn't get a good grade. XP Well, I walked a little bit with Paulisha, Karen, and Darneshia. I also said "hi" to Nicole as I passed by her (which I do everyday XP). Well, in the ELA classroom, I saw that Nohemi was crying, and I went over and asked Karen what was wrong. (She didn't know.) But the bell rang, and we all scrambled to our seats.) We have a substitute! XP Well, we read a play of Anne Frank, and it was fun. I didn't get to do the play part until the second part, and I played Mr. Van Daan... (Hehe, Bao did a good job as Mr. Frank on the first part, and Jonathan and Merlin did good jobs as Mr. Frank and Peter in the second part. XP) But some people just laughed when they heard "perverted" parts in the play. Like, they had to wear a ton of clothes over and over their bodies (so they could be wearing 16 shirts over themselves) and in one part, it said "But first, let's take off our clothes" and everyone just got perverted in it. ^^;; Or when they said Anne took off her panties. (Gah, they're all so perverted!!! @_@!!!) So my character, Mr. Van Daan, is a man who gets angry very easily, and likes to smoke. o_O;; (Wow, that's not like me AT ALL.) But still, I managed to make the character seem...real. XP Some people were just bored in class that whole day... ^^;; Laura and Angelie were happy that they didn't have to read and said "We're special like that." (^^;;) Well, I walked with Zaki to the bus, and he doubts I can finish my manga by next year. (It's only gonna be 20 pages!!! @_@!!!) Nida also came up into the chat... She was working on a manga, but got tired of it, and he hates his sister... ^^;; Well, in the bus, I said "hi" to Jereme, Lin, and Chloe outside! (Well, I was inside the bus, they were outside, and we said "hello" from the bus window... XP) Hmm, Lily still isn't talking to me, but I guess she acknowledges me... (That's a start. But I wanna find out why she's been ignoring me... ^^;;) Oh yeah... On the bus, some girl was speaking really loudly and she said "He's sexy, he's sexy"... (Like a little game.) And I saw her point in my direction, and a bunch of black guys turned towards me, looked back at her, and had that expression that just seemed to say "HIM?!" Hehe. ^^;; After I got home, I made some macaroni and cheese (too much onion makes it sweet) and my dad and mom are upset about a letter they got... ^^;; My sister didn't understand it, but she's kinda clueless about that stuff... Oh yeah!!! I'm thinking of going to Shiokaze-con! Any of you anime fans going? Well, I'm THINKING of going, but I'm really not sure... Well, I'll talk to you later. Bye! ^^ End: 8:52 PM CST P.S. Well yesterday, Trangie found out Rendy (the guy she was going out with) was only using her so he could "do it" with her... (HOW PERVERTED. And aren't they young???) So yeah... Tonight, when he calls her, she's gonna dump him. (She felt like that he was hiding something from her, and that their love wasn't..."honest".) What a mean guy...and a weirdo. -_-;; © 2004-2007 MiasmaMoon. All rights reserved.

Hehe, what was my day like??? Eh, I don't know... You read and judge for yourself... ^^;; But oh my gosh... Last night was...ugh. I mean, I had cleaned my entire room, and I was washing my bed stuff... (Pillow, comforter, spread, etc.) But it took a while... And while that, I ate late too... -_-;; (Around 10-11 PM...) So when I started to get sleepy, I stayed up a lot of the night trying to put all the bed stuff into its correct place... -_-;; Then I showered and went to sleep... -_-;; Well, I woke up in the morning, and got ready. My sister thought we were gonna be late, so she started rushing out the door. ^^;; Her clock was wrong...well actually. Her clock was right, and the others were wrong, so I spent the time resetting all the clocks in the living room and kitchen. XP So in Science, we talked about a bunch of stuff... Sonar and stuff... Also, Kinjal said that someone hacked the UT (University of Texas) main website... And then our Science teacher was talking about how he had roommates when he was in college that liked to put viruses and hack other people's computers and thought it was fun. (My teacher thought that it was really UNCOOL.) He explained that some people think that the computer's a puzzle, and they like to just...edit it around and stuff. -_-;; He also explained about those hackers? He said you can get in a lot of trouble for robbing a bank or convenience store, but some people hack for money, and if they do get caught, they're only sent to usually a 2-year jail sentence. (My teacher said those people should be executed, which I think means to kill them.) Oh yeah. He said there was this 14-year old boy that made a virus and sent it out into the Internet and the police or something caught him and now he's serving a sentence until he's about 30-something years old. o_O;; Well, how did this whole chat start? XP Well, after hearing about the UT website got hacked, Kinjal and Taylor asked how does someone hack a computer? (He explained to us it's basically changing the coding of information in the computer...) I also learned Jasmin's real name is Diamond. o_O;; (She said when she was younger, little kids couldn't pronounce her real name, so they called her Jasmin... How can you not know how to pronounce "Diamond"???) In Social Studies, we watched a video about the Underground Railroad and it was really interesting... Oh yeah. Nicole wasn't in class... She was in some kind of meeting? In Algebra, we had to grade 3 papers from the TAKS practice book, and I made an A on all of them! Hooray... XP (One of the homeworks had 60 questions on it... o_O;;) After Algebra, I told Melinda the seventh "Rising Stars of Manga" started, so she could mail in her work, but she still needs to re-edit it. ^^;; (Why am I helping a rival in the same contest? Eh, just being nice. XP) While I was walking to Health, I saw Lily with her friend. And I waved "hi" to Lily, and her Hispanic friend said "Hey! He said 'hi' to you!" (After a few seconds, I heard a scream from Lily... o_O;; What did that mean???) In Health, we were gonna get to practice on our dancing! So my group (me, Erik, and Andrew/Sai) were sent to the girl's Health room, and we were grouped up with Aleesha, Shan, and two other girls. (Later, Mark was added to our group.) So it was a fun class! XP Erik and Andrew/Sai weren't really helping with planning the dancing... (Andrew/Sai was pretending to sell Geico car insurance to Erik. XP) Mark just didn't like to dance... ^^;; Hehe, the girls were at first gonna name our group the "H-Town High--" something. Right now, I can't think of the name. XP Okay, for the dance, they're gonna cut up some songs and put it together. (They're also thinking of us all dressing alike. XP We're thinking of black and white, and for the boys, a hat that we can tip. XP Oh yeah, Shan also asked if we had sunglasses.) Okay, for one of our songs, we got "Temperature", we're still thinking about "One Two Step", um, and a bunch of other songs... XP Oh yeah. Shan's beads in her braids came off, and Mark and I helped pick it up, but Mark kept some for himself... o_O;; Nuzrat's mom was substituting our class, and we used the teacher's computer to download songs and tried to practice the dancing. (Even though the other guys didn't help. -_-;;) Anyways, it was fun planning it out, and Shan called me her n!gga, because I really was the only guy that was helping with the dance routine. ^^;; Well, we asked if we could change it up... (We're currently thinking of doing something hip-hop, gangsta/rap, etc.) The girls don't want the guys shaking their butts and stuff, and we have to have music about 4-6 minutes... Okay. Well, for lunch, the girls went ahead of us, but the coaches told us to come back into the boy's Health room. ^^;; At first, the girls and I were going outside to practice our dance routine. (IT WAS HOT OUTSIDE!!!) But some of them headed to lunch since we only had about 5 minutes left until lunch... Oh my gosh. My stomach started hurting during lunch, and I was one of the last people to get lunch... And the tardy bell rang, but the principal signed me an excuse... (Hooray! XP) Well, in Art, we did a lot of watercolor tricks. It was fun! Oh yeah! I was reading the newspaper we were using as cover and there was a comic where a woman and her hands were up, and were surrounded by a swarm of FBI. XP The FBI thought said, "You said that you went 'bombing with Al-Qaida'!" The woman said "I said I was going 'bowling with Val Synder'!" (Val's the friend she was with.) One of the FBI officers said "You need to enunciate properly, ma'am." Get it? If you don't, I'll give you a tip. You see, did you know since 9/11, George Bush has allowed the government to secretly listen to people's phone calls to see if they're doing anything with terrorist stuff. And that's what the comic is talking about... ^^;; Katherine had a song stuck in my hed... I told her that "Temperature" was stuck in my head since they were playing it a lot during Health, and she laughed and said that she couldn't imagine that song stuck in my head. XP Well, when I was leaving Art, I saw that Liliana wasn't walking with Melissa... I wonder what happened with them... (Oh, I need to get Melissa's phone number soon. XP She doesn't use her e-mail...) Well, in ELA, I never finished my Literary Fair project, and it was due today!! ARGH! And the teacher won't be back until next Monday! (Best grade I can make will be a 70. -_-;;) But I'm already finished with it...kinda. Why don't I just turn it in then? Well, my story is gonna be PUBLISHED, so I wanna make sure it's perfect. ^^ We missed our passing period because some people were talking, and we stayed inside and read more of "The Giver". (Christian was the only one able to leave because he had to go to the restroom... -_-;;) Hehe, Angelie thinks Tia looks cute in cargo pants... XP Oh yeah! The teacher passed out papers and we have to read books during the summer for reports in high school next year. "Mythology" by Edith Hamilton. I have that! ^^ (My mom's old friend, Mrs. Brown gave it to me as a gift when I was little... She said she didn't use it anymore... And she moved to Austin ever since her husband died...) Ah, what am I doing, getting all sad on you? XP Oh yeah!!! My teacher called the people who didn't read the book, "The War of the Worlds", but watched the movie "morons". What exactly did she mean? Well, the book, "The War of the Worlds", is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM THE MOVIE. It's about aliens, and the name's the same, but EVERYTHING ELSE IS DIFFERENT!!! Usually, the book is always better than the movie, and they just butchered it with "The War of the Worlds"... And oh yeah! She didn't use the exact word "moron", but that's what she meant. (She told us that. Well still, aren't you stating that they're morons...with different words?) I talked to Vyonne after ELA, and she said that she's with Jackie and Alan and some stuff, and they haven't planned out a lot of stuff for their dance. ^^;; Well, the bus ride was all right... Can't recall anything... Except I think Chelsea touched my shoulder for something, but I thought she did it on accident. ^^;; Well, my dad's still setting up black screens for the houses in the window... And my brother tried to cook ribs today (since my mom wanted him to do it) but he burnt a part of it!!! (GRR! I TOLD HIM TO FLIP IT!!! But noo...) Okay, I think that's all I did today. I'll see you guys later! Bye! ^^ End: 7:15 PM CST P.S. "Temperature" finally did get out of my head, but when I visited Alaina's website, she changed her theme into "Temperature" and now it's stuck in my head again... -_-;; (Still, it's a nice song. The beat, not the words. XP) © 2004-2007 MiasmaMoon. All rights reserved.

Yup yup, I had no school today! So what have I been doing? Well, a ton of things... (And why do I have today off? Well, it's a teacher's workday, so eh. XP) I woke up around...9-10 AM and I saw that my parents were leaving to go somewhere... (I had to lock the door for them.) What else... Oh yeah! I wanted to go on the computer for a bit, but my sister really gets angry when you ask to use the computer... -_-;; (She locks the door, and I keep knocking, but she doesn't reply.) She gets pissed when someone wants to go on the computer on her time... -_-;; (Well, I wanted to fix a problem, but I've tried so much stuff and nothing works. Oh well. It's not like it affects the computer or anything.) In the meanwhile, I started to clean my room! Yup yup, vacuuming, dusting, cleaning out the stuff in my cabinet drawers and stuff like that... Oh yeah! I finally threw away that box inside my closet! What am I talking about, you ask? Well, when I first moved here, I put all my belongings inside a cardboard box, and it took me... (Let's see... I moved here June, and it's now almost May... That's...11 months!!! o_O;; And I looked through all my stuff, and it brings back memories ya know? I feel like a ton of stuff I have contains a lot of sentimental value... ^^ I was also listening to the radio and at the same time, folding my clothes... (I washed the laundry on Saturday, my mom dried it for me on Sunday, and I folded it on Monday. XP) Hehe, I haven't listened to the radio in a long time. XP Anyways, this was dumb: I turned on Inuyasha music on my CD player/radio/alarm clock thingy, and I was vacuuming at the same time... -_-;; (How can you hear it? XP) But cleaning the bathroom was...ugh. I CANNOT REMOVE THE LIMESTONE!!! You know that chalky stuff that builds up in bathrooms after a while? Yeah, hard to remove. I have to scrub really hard, and it still doesn't come off... -_-;; Well, after that, I went into the kitchen and started boiling pasta. (I wanted to make lunch today... XP) But there were no empty pots, and on the stove, there was a pot with just water in it... (But when I poured it out into the sink, there was some white stuff under it... o_O???) (I wasn't gonna taste it because the science lab rules are never to taste anything if you don't know what it is...but it wasn't in science class... ^^;;) But when I came home, my mom yelled at me because I poured out all her saltwater... -_-;; (She was gonna use that saltwater for cooking something...) So yeah... -_-;; I got yelled at. ^^;; Oh yeah! Our house phone finally works again! (Yeah, these past few weeks, my house phone hasn't been working... -_-;;) My dad was making salad, and I don't know why, but I don't like the way he cuts tomatoes. (He'll just cut in random places, like cutting them into random, uneven circles...) So I just cut up another batch. So I started to melt the cheese, but I read the packet and it said it was artificial cheese. (Why'd my sister go and buy that...? I mean, really. She looks at the cheese's color, and she'll always buy the "white cheese"... -_-;;) Well, I had my brother stir it while I chopped up garlic and onions... (I finally learn how to dice an onion correctly! XP) But my mom covered my mouth (at first I thought she wanted to cover my eyes because of me chopping onion) but my dad was secretly listening onto a call... o_O;; (Well, I kinda listened, and no one in the kitchen talked, but it was something about a man beating his wife and stuff... o_O;; How mean.) Well, I finally finished my food, and it tasted nice, but my brother poured salad dressing on it. o_O;; (I guess you could eat salad dressing on pasta, but...eh?) After that, I went on the computer, and I've been here since, doing random things... Oh yeah! I've been watching the anime "Air", and it's so sad!!! Imagine a little girl, whose mom passed away when she was 3. One day at a festival, that little girl and her older sister were together... And that little girl wanted a balloon. Her dad and older sister told her that her mom was watching her from the sky, and the little girl wanted to buy a balloon so she could see her mom again. (They were afraid to tell her that her mom passed away.) The older sister told her that you would need more than one balloon...but they couldn't afford more than one balloon... So when the little girl went to buy the balloon, a man knocked her over, and she let go of the balloon and it flew away... That same little girl ran back home with her older sister and tried to find money to buy another balloon... But when they came back to the festival area, it was already closed down... The little girl wandered the temple and found a magical feather. She put it back... But she started to act different after that... She finally admitted that she would never ever see her mother again... And she started to mumble stuff to herself... And one night, her older sister went to go check on her, and she found her little sister inside the clinic (they were a doctor family) trying to cut her wrists... So after the older sister treated the wound, she gave her little sister a bandana... And she told her to keep it tied to her wrists... And if she does that, she'll be able to use magic when she gets older. (The little girl wanted that magical power so she could fly and see her mom again.) I actually cried through watching those episodes... (Yes, I cried...) There were actually more parts to that, and I guess I'll type them up... She leaves home to go to the sky... She thinks that if she does that, then she can make everyone happy... So she's leaving home, and she tells them to take care of her older sister... (Her older sister has really been the only one that's been caring for her really badly...) That girl who ran away was found in the temple again, and she had cut her wrist and was unconcious. Remember that feather she found years ago? It was right next to her... ...and it began another story... A long time ago, there was a couple that had a child together... But one day, the child started to act different... ...and the mother found a feather...the same kind. But soon, a war had started, and her husband was taken away... The woman ran far away, where she found another village... And she thought she could stay in that peaceful village and start a new life... But months passed, and a disease had spread through the village. The people believed that the mother and child had brought the disease, and they wanted to sacrifice the child in order to save themselves... But the mother couldn't bear to sacrifice her own child, and she sacrificed herself instead... That same night...she stabs herself with a knife...and dies... And that little girl? She met her mother for the first time... (In her dreams/spirit world) But she leaves her in order to stay with her friends and older sister... It really is a sad anime!!! But it's so nice too... Oh yeah! The "Rising Stars of Manga" Tokyopop competition is starting again! (It's volume 7 this time!!!) I'm thinking of joining again, and this time, no more procrastination! ^^ I know the work already, and I need to edit it a bit, but I'm gonna make the deadline this time!!! ^^ So the deadline is January (something), 2007... Okay. Oh yeah. I also have Algebra homework to do. GRR. -_-;; Well, see you later! My brother wants to go on, and I owe him time since I stayed up so late yesterday... -_-;; End: 4:56 PM CST P.S. I should start working on a new theme soon, eh? © 2004-2007 MiasmaMoon. All rights reserved.
