   I dudits!!

Time of Post: 10:40 PM(MT) Woo!! I finally beat Sephiroth on Kingdom Hearts!! *does the happy dance* Man, that took forever!! It took me literally like 15 tries to beat that mofo! It was kinda funny actually, my dad was sitting on the couch reading his book, and every so often there would come an odd noise and he would look over at me and find me squirming around and making weird noises. The first time he stared for a second then went, "Are you ok?" I explained what happened by going "I lost AGAIN!! ARRRGH!!" >_< Heheh, he got a kick out of that. So yeah, after that, I guess he started paying attention or something, because after like the fifth time I lost he started offering tips. You know you're having issues with a game when your parent starts giving you advice. . . still, I'm sooo happy! Now, literally all that's left is to beat the final boss. I'm not kidding, I have all of the trinities, I have all of the dalmations, I have all of the keyblades--including the Ultima Keyblade--and my Sora is at level 100. Hokay, now that that's out of my system, on to why I didn't post yesterday. I'll start from the beginning because my reason doesn't make much sense otherwise. So, I woke up to chaos in my house--meaning that my cousin's kids were up and being noisy, and everyone should have been ready 15 minutes ago, and we were so going to be late! Late to my own Grandpa's funeral. We ended up not being late, so its ok. The funeral was. . . hard. Very beautiful, but hard. I hate crying in public. I know I wasn't the only one, but still, I don't like it when people see me cry. I had the hardest time facing Grandma. She just seemed like she was about to break, yet she still managed a brave smile and a thank you to everyone who came. So yeah, that was hard, but amazingly, I feel much better now. You know, that's the first funeral I've ever been to--well, that I can remember anyway, my mom says that I went to some when I was little, but I don't recall. Well, after the funeral was a luncheon for the family, which was a LOT of people. I have a huge family. While there, I had a fun time deciding if I wanted to chance getting sick by eating. I did eat, and shockingly I was alright. After that, I found out that my cousin's baby, Olivia, loves me. She just stayed all content when I held her, or my mom, but when anyone else besides her mom tried she would get fussy. It was odd, and all of my relatives that saw me holding her had the exact same reaction. Here it is: "Gasp! Erin? You're holding a baby?! There's hope afterall!!" I think my relatives are convinced that I hate children or something. Sure they're not my favorite, but Olivia was just so darn cute I couldn't help but want to hold her! Gregory was also very cute. My cousin has extremely cute kids! Oh, the ages are: Olivia--7 months, Gregory--2 1/2 years. Just one word for them. Kawaii!! Hmm, well after that, my cousin and Aunt left, and we decided to go out to cheer up a bit. We went and saw Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. I was a bit disappointed with the first part, because it seemed very rushed and choppy, but after they got to the challenges of the TriWizard Tournament, it got much better, and the end was absolutely amazing. After that we stopped at Borders and I picked up Eerie Queerie vol 2. And that leads us to my reason for not posting last night! Since I spent the whole day out and about, I sorta had a bit of a relapse on my illness. By the time we got home, I was queasy and had a horrible headache and all I wanted was to go to bed. So I did! I apologize, but I think I was justified. I'm fine today though. I think I just needed the sleep. Wow, long post, sorry about that, but I do have one more thing to add. I have two new fanart today!! ^_^ Yep, I did a couple more pictures of the red neko guy. I really like the design, so I'm thinking of keeping him. Name suggestions would be more than welcome, as well,as always, as votes and comments! Oyasumi!

   Just popping in!

Time of Post: 10:28 PM(MT) Hey, just staying long enough to say that I have another new fanart. A red neko guy this time. I had a lot of fun drawing this one! ^_^ Ai-ya! I gotta go, my Aunt and my cousin are here from Washington for the funeral. My cousing brought her two kids, and they are ADORABLE!! So yeah, I'd love it if you'd please take a peek at the fanart, and I promise I visit people tomorrow! Oyasumi!

   Thanks

Time of Post: 10:05 PM(MT) Thanks so much for the support you guys, I'm feeling much better today now that I'm over the initial shock of it. The last milestone to pass will be the funeral on Saturday. *passes out cookies* Thanks again. Hm, well I have a new fanart today. It's of Sakura from Naruto. Once again I've done it in my style of art. Votes and comments would be much appriciated. As far as my health goes, I haven't improved much. I ended up staying home from school. I might stay home tomorrow as well, depending on how I feel. I really hate being sick. I still haven't beaten Kingdom Hearts. I know for sure that I'm on the last world this time though. I mean, it is called "End of the World". But I need to go back and beat the Platnum Match--in other words fight Sephiroth--and I need to find a few more items so I can make the Ultima Keyblade. Well, at least the endless wandering looking for rare items has given me lots of extra training. Guess what level I'm at. Eighty-nine! Yes, that's right, eighty-nine!! At least the final battle should be fairly easy, neh? Oyasumi.

   Gomen

Time of Post: 10:21 PM(MT) I'm sorry I haven't been here for a few days, but I have a good excuse. You see, my family had something of an emergency. My Grandpa had an aneurism (sp?). He's been in the hospital for the last couple of days, in a coma of sorts. We just got a call about an hour ago that he passed away. I feel really horrible. I didn't even get a chance to go see him before he went. I'm so worried about my Grandma, she's really sensitive. I know a couple of my aunts are staying with her tonight, but still, I hope she'll be alright. I'm also a little worried about my mom. She's not the type to show her emotions very much, and she actually seemed more worried about my brother and I than sad, but I know her, and I can tell she's really upset. At least she was able to call her sister and talk for a while. Heh, and on top of all that, I'm sick again. I have a nasty stomach flu. I'm dizzy and nauseous most of the time, and when I tried to take a hot shower earlier, I nearly fainted, then puked my guts out. Suffice to say this hasn't been a very good week. Nyan, well, that's where I've been. Please excuse me if I don't do much visiting tonight, I'm not doing too well. I think I might just go to bed. Oyasuminasai.

Laaaazy Saturday!

Time of Post: 10:27 PM(MT) Well, since my dad was sick today, and my mom was exhausted from work, they sent my brother and I out to rent movies. We got The Amityville Horror, Batman Begins, and The Longest Yard, all of which are movies that I missed seeing in the theatre. We took my brother's car to get them, and it's a stick shift, so he had to drive. I got a very strong reminder why I hate riding with my brother. His driving scares me!! Half the time he goes way too slow, and the other half he drives like a maniac. I feared for my life! So yeah, next time we go to get movies, we're taking my car, and I'M driving!! O_o Other than that, I spent most of my day playing Kingdom Hearts. Yes, I STILL haven't beat it. -_-" I'm very close, though. I'm at Hollow Bastion, and I have all of the emblems to open the door, so there's not a whole lot left to do. I could be wrong, but if I am, don't spoil it for me! I wanna find out the end on my own. ^_^ Oh! The other important event of the day is that I orded Descendants of Darkness on Amazon! Woo, I can't wait to see that series!! *squirms* I still can't believe I found the whole thing for $20! Yatta! Oyasumi!

   Wow

Time of Post: 11:16 PM(MT) Guess what I just got back from doing! I just got back from rescuing my brother from his locked car. Yes, he locked his keys in his car. Not only that he locked them in the car while the car was running. He was in a hurry at the ATM, and he just kinda locked em right in there! Now, normally, it would be a simple matter of grabbing the spare key and delivering it, right? My first issue was how I was gonna get there. I would have taken my car, but I'm nearly out of gas, and I have no money to get more. Sooo, smart old me, I kidnapped my dad's car. He didn't mind--just told him when I got home--but I was warned to please ask next time. So anyway, I grab all of the keys from the key pegs, and take off to find my brother. I get there, and he starts going through the keys one by one, trying them. Guess what, none of them work!! Turns out that the spare key is on my dad's key ring, which is in his pants, at home. I ended up calling home and having my mom bring the spare key--she got home while I was gone. Then, after some squabbling about who was driving what and who was leading, ect. we came home. So yeah, that's how I spent my evening. Fun, neh? Well, here's a picture of a cute cat boy that should take my mind off the evening's events! Me~ow!! Question of the day: Ever been locked out of your car? Not personally, but I've had to help people out of that situation. . .*counts* four times now. Oyasumi!

   Wahoo! I is proud of myself!!

Time of Post: 10:06 PM(MT) Wow, yay for bad grammar. Anyway, I'm proud because I have a new fanart! This time it's a picture of Naruto, and its in my style of art. Now, you may be thinking "you do that all the time, what's so special?" I'll tell ya what's special! This thing took me two and a half hours!! >_O Yeah its extremely rare for me to take more than an hour on a drawing, so over two is like, I don't even know. So yeah, two cookies and two hugs to whoever goes and comments and votes on this one! Ah, something interesting happened to me today. I give Robert a ride home from school every other day, right? Well, today, he told me I needed to stay for a bit and talk to his sister because, apparently, she can't pronounce names worth crap. She's reading Fruits Basket right now, and he said that she was butchering the names. So I stayed and it turns out that she really was mispronouncing things. She pronounced Tohru (Tor-oo) as Too-roo. Things like that, but I think the worst one was Kyo. It is pronounced 'Kee-oh', right? Well she called him 'Kay-oh'. Bah! So yeah, I told her the right way, and now I think she hates me. She was glaring at me the whole time after that clear until I left. Feh. So, yeah, that brings me to the question of the day! Do you know anyone who can't pronounce things to save their life? Well, duh, I just talked about that, but also my brother has a very slight problem with that, but nothing like that other girl. Oyasumi!

   My Computer

Time of Post: 10:12 PM(MT) Heheh, well, today I'll be taking a leaf out of Logan-kun's book and showing you guys the inner workings of my computer. This is my desktop. Not a whole lot going on here, but I like my background. Oh, and I was talking to my friend David when I made some of these, so that's why his name is at the bottom of the screen. ^_^" Next we have my My Pictures folder. I organize the hell out of my pictures, simply because if I leave them all jumbled together, I can't find anything. See? I even organize my art by series. Now, my music on the other hand. . . I tend to just leave my music in one big play list. It makes for an interesting mix when I put it on shuffle. I have everything from heavy metal to bouncy J-pop. So yeah, that's a little sneak peak into my comp. On to my day. As far as health goes, I'm feeling much better. It was a stomach thing yesterday, and I think it may have been caused by something I ate, because I feel fine today. Though since I was being a slug yesterday, I forgot to take my shower and had to get up reaaaaaally early to take one today. How early? Can you say 5:30 AM? Yep, if I don't do it that early, I don't do it, because any later, and my parents take over the bathroom that has the shower in it (we have two, but only one has a shower.) So yeah, I've been up since 5:30 and I am extremely tired. I'm shaking I'm so tired. That ever happen to any of you? Meh, well I think this post is long enough. Oyasumi!

   Ack

Time of Post: 10:07 PM(MT) Stayed home from school today. Man I hate being sick! I ended up sleeping most of the day, but woke up when my mom started watching Evita. It's an odd experience to wake up to someone singing "Don't cry for me Argentina!" So yeah, I didn't do much today. Though I do, once again, have a new fanart. Can you say 'Chibi Yuki'? Yeah, I hope I get a reaction from the fangirls on this one. ^_^ Votes and comments are rewarded with a hug and a cookie! Oyasumi!

O_o

Time of Post: 1:14 AM(MT) Wow, late post. I wasn't going to post tonight--because my dad took over the comp earlier--but I can't sleep right now, and I have nothing better to do. Well, this is the first time I've had trouble sleeping since the beginning of the school year. Maybe its the pepsi I just drank? No, I couldn't sleep before that. Feh. Nyan, well, no manga this week. Why? Because I'm saving up to buy Yami No Matsuei. I found the whole series for $21!! So yeah, I'm collecting my pennies to get it. Oh yeah! I have another new fanart! This one is just a random drawing. And the guy has blue skin. My brother said he reminded him of that one guy from X-Men who can go through walls and stuff. What was his name? I think it was Night Crawler or something. Not really sure. . . but I promise that's not what I was thinking of when I drew it. I just drew an elfy looking guy, then went "Hey, I bet he would look cool with blue skin." Did I mention that I'm very tired right now? Well, as always, votes and comments are much appriciated. Oyasumi!
