Is it possible to pull a muscle in your foot? Answer: Yes. *points to herself* It happened a few days ago when I wore a pair of very funky platform sandals. By the end of that day, I noticed that the left side of the bottom of my left foot, hurt. ^^;; I was hoping that the pain would be gone by today, but I was wrong. I played a mean game of tennis with some of my classmates and noticed that my foot still hurt afterwards. Lovely. And I was planning on going for a jog later, too. Ah well! Next time *^_^* But yes, today was another beautiful day. I love the sun and I love the warmth *^_^* It makes me feel fuzzy wuzzy inside *^_^* Okies. I gotta get home and shower and then study. TTYL. *^_^* EDIT: I am a bit frustrated. I really want to go to AnimeExpo 2006 this summer. I want to see and meet CLAMP, the mangaka of Her Magesty's Dog [a manga I am reading], and the voices actors of Fruits Basket and Full Metal Alchemist. Argh! Not fair! Okay. End of whining ^^;;

Hello peeps! Thanks to those of you who commented on my last post. I hope that you enjoyed those trailers. Yes. As you can probably tell, I am totally in the Death Note mood. *^_^* I also found out today that there WILL BE [at least, I think...] a Death Note anime coming soon. Please, oh please be true! I can honestly say that Death Note is perhaps THE most brilliant manga series I have ever read. I HIGHLY recommend anyone to read -- well, maybe not for the young kiddies. ^^;; But yes, good stuff. Oyasumi!

Damn you, tempting dumplings!!! I am supposedly on a "healthy eating" diet...well that was until my colleagues tempted me with tasty vegetarian fried potstickers. I ate like...7 of them in one sitting ^^;; Yes. Is there even still hope for me? *sighs* *groans* And after not EVEN a year of working at the wonderful hospital were I've worked since this past summer, I was given the news by my manager guy that the pharmacy department will be laying off ALL pharmacy interns. (>_<) NOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I really REALLY like my job! I only work part time; I get wonderful pharmacy experience; I get full medical/dental/optical benifits; I get 401K; I get PTO hours; I get paid $29 bucks/hour. *silence* NOOOOOOOO!!!! *regains composure* Life is definitely unpredicatble, wouldn't you think?

I had initally updated my post a few days ago, but I gave up because the server was acting funny and would NOT update for me. *_* Eh! * * * * * Yes. Today is indeed a beautiful day, well...so says the weather dude. It was SO wet and dreary yesterday that I was seriously feeling a bit down ^^;; PLUS, I had a REALLY BAD "Case of the Mondays" yesterday, too! Bah! Tuesday is looking good so far *^_^* It's still the morning, so I can't really say that for sure, you know? But...it's just a feeling. Hey, your day IS what YOU make of it, right? I don't know if I inform you all yet, but I moved into a new apartment this past Friday. It's a 2 bedroom, and it's pretty nice. Sadly, my roomate [who is the one that's supplying the furniture] has not moved in yet. Thus, the entire place is still barren ^^;; My room, on the other hand, is pretty cute. Unfortunately I don't have a bed. For the time being, I am sleeping on air matress. ^^;; Ah yes. My ballroom dancing and tennis classes are awesome. Seriously, Tuesday and Thrusday are my favorite days now because it's when I have those classes. *^_^* Tee hee! I'm currently learning the Waltz, and it's fun! I still have...like "two left feet" but who cares! Anime wise, I did quite a bit of catching up on the weekends. I watched Bleach, Naruto, Kaikan Phrase, Yakitate Japan!, Black Cat, and Hikaru no Go. I was also to locate the BitTorrents for Peach Girl, Groove Adventure Rave, and Aishiteruze Baby - nice! And most importantly, an online friend told me of a way to solve my One Piece .mp4 problem. Yosh! I am quite happy! Manga wise, I have thus far finished reading Cafe Kichijouji 2 and Antique Bakery 3. The latter manga is getting really good. I hope that more volumes will be released soon *^_^* And yep, Samurai Deeper Kyo was awesome too! Okies, it's time to get back to school. Later all! *hugs*

Hello beautiful people! Since it's been a while since my last update, I'd thought that I'd swing by and let y'all know what's been happening with me *^_^* ::Spring Break Recap:: Yes, it was like...three weeks ago but it's never too late for a recap, right? Anywho, for those of you who did not remember, the first part of my Spring Break trip was spent in Seattle, WA at the Sakura-Con anime convention! The convention was lots of fun! My sister and I did some lite cos-play as L from Death Note, and Pucca. I also got to meet up with TheMouse and Panda and her hubby, John -- all are wonderful people *^_^* TheMouse accompanied my sister and I back to Oregon, and together the three of us vegetated and went to the Oregon Coast -- the weather was great! Finally, my last part of my break was spent working at the hospital to make some extra moolah! All in all, I LOVED my Spring Break. Fun times, indeed! I shall try to post up pictures one of these days ^^;; And trust me, the pictures are entertaining to look at *^_^* ::the New Spring Quarter at School:: So far, it ain't that bad. This is actually the beginning of my second week of the new quarter. My classes include: Medicinal Chemistry & Pharmacology, Pharmacy Practice VI, Pharmacy Management, Clinical Applications, Ballroom Dancing I, and Tennis I. I have enjoyed ALL of my classes. Umm...yeah, I have my first MedChem module of the quarter this Thursday - lovely. The topics covered are anti-Diabetic drugs and Endocrine pharmacology. *_* ::Manga:: It continues to grow very insanely. I counted a total of...238...no...plus 5 more that I acquired last night, which adds up to be...243 volumes of manga. *sighs* *smiles* *loves* ::Anime:: I've managed to catch up with Naruto. I watched some of the new Spring 2006 new series releases which include Ouran High School Host Club and Nana. And lastly...my One Piece withdrawal is becoming UNbearable *_* Why, oh why, did Kaizuko-Fansubs switch from .avi to .mp4?!? I have having tremendous difficults is plaing the files EVEN with the suggested codecs. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!! *ahem* Yes. So I am now JUST over 20 episodes behind of the release! *curses* ::Live Action adapted Manga/Anime Movies:: Dude, I have SO gotta post up this pictures! I AM SO gonna watch these movies once they are available. Well, I don't exactly know how to do so, BUT I've just got access to one movie so I have FAITH that somehow, someday, I will get my hands on the rest! Mwuahahahahahahahahahaha!!! Live Action Movies of: Death Note Prince of Tennis Honey & Clover Your & My Secret Nana *smiles VERY evily* ::And in the End: I shall return again. Don't forget me. I love you...all of you. *dances off and away like a crazy lunatic* m(^_^)m

::The Spring:: Ah, I love the Spring! *^_^* ::Monkey Orange Returns from APhA-ASP I just got back from my American Pharmacy Association & Academy of Student Pharmacist annual conference in San Franscico, CA. It was wonderful. Here's what happened: ~I met lots of other student pharmacists from across the country and chatted with other pharmacists ~I acquired lots of free goodies from the drug representatives during the exposition. Pens, post-its, drug samples, stuffed enema, and more! ~I also attended very informative lectures. ~I reunited with a very good friend from college and ALSO research buddy from several years ago. ~And of course I also spent quite a bit of time wandering around the ever-so-cool downtown San Franscico area. It was niice *^_^* ::Manga Growth:: I discovered TWO new series I'd like to add to my ever-expanding manga library. I should stop. It's getting quite large. *silence* ... I shall purchase them today. ::Monkey Orange vs. MedChem Module 3:: I have a date. I have a match. A duel to the death -- with my retake. Wednesday March 22, 2006 at 2:00pm. THAT will be the moment of judgement. Lastly, thank the Lord I passed Module 5 -- otherwise Hell would freeze over. Mwuahahahaha! ::Sakura-Con:: Yes, and a few days later my sister and I will be heading up to Seattle, WA to attend Sakura-Con for the very first time. We are both very excited!!! Yes, yes. ::All-in-All:: It's been like one month since my last entry. Even though it doesn't seem that long ago, quite a bit has happened. I shall finish the rest of my update later. So until then, have a wonderful day *^_^* *many hugs*

::Failure:: I thought that I would be able to get with passing ALL of my Medicinal Chemistry & Pharmacology modules for my second year, but I was wrong. I have officially failed this past Thursday's module 3. *silence* Though it sucks & is a bit depressing, there are still the retakes in a few weeks. As long as I can pass them...and my remaining two module, then I'll be free!!! Argh...stupid Med Chem!! *shakes her fist angrily into the air*

::Quikies:: Valentine's Day was quite nice. It snowed for about an hour -- it was very pretty *^_^* Afterwards, my classmate and I got dressed up pretty and went to dinner at a nice Italian resturant. We ordered an appetizer, entres, and dessert, and wine. Yum. The Apothecary Ball from last weekend was fabulous. I wore my pretty pink dress, had my nails done, and a nice looking hair-do. That evening I danced latin and swing. I also won a red betta fish, which I named Chainsaw. Yay. I got my hair cut. Well, sort-of. I'm trying to grow out my hair so I had the hairdresser give me a slight trim, upper mass reduction, and layer renewel *^_^* It's looks quite nice, especially when it's straightened. Ah yes, my manga collection continues to grow larger with each passing weekend. I...I can't stop myself. Now, if only I can find time to sit down and enjoy them ^^;; This Saturday I will be going up to a wonderful mall in Portland to do some girly shopping with my friend. I am expecting to acquiring some goodies. AND on Sunday I will be intensively shadowing the ICU pharmacist at the hospital where I work. Yes, I am quite excited to see what I'll learb from that brilliant man *^_^* OKAY, folks. I gotta Medicinal Chemistry Module 3 scheduled for tomorrow. Such ickiness. I shall try my best and study hard! *^_^* Thank you very much for stopping by!

::Monkey Orange vs. Technology:: In the end, I won *^_^* So, what happened? About a week ago my primary email account with Yahoo! just died for no apparent reason. I spent the next several days communicating with Customer Care to get it fix. By the time the situation was resolved – on Friday – I had accumulated 74 new messages in my inbox ^^;; Yes. This entire situation was incredibly frustrating. Additionally, my VoiceMail on my cell phone also went psycho. The service was inactivated for no apparent reason, and when I tried to access it, the message said that my account was invalid. Sounds familiar? (>_<) Ack! I ended up calling Customer Service and had the problem fixed. Yes, technology is not as reliable as we all think. Be paranoid, be very paranoid! Mwuahahahaha!
