   [LIFE // 1st signs of spring?!]

whoa~ i haven't updated in a while, how's everyone doing? ^^ btw, thanks for your PM, Sita!! i'm very sorry i wasn't able to be on MyO a lot last week, since my brothers were home for spring break and they hogged the internet for themselves all the time. =_=; speaking of which, i hope you all had (are having?) a great spring holiday! ^0^ mine was OK. my brothers owned the internet for chatting & games while my dad owned the satellite for watching the 2006 World Cup qualifier games. as a result, i ended up watching a lot of videos & DVDs (both movies & TV-drama's) with my mom, including a subbed Japanese TV-drama my friend lent me several months ago. (i know i hate it when i lend people stuff and they seem to forget about returning it, so i'll return the discs asap, hon!! ^_^) other than that tho, what else happened? let's see... manga-wise, the scan was becoming so blurry & the translation so incomprehensible that i had to take a break from reading Angel Sanctuary. ^_^; in its place, i read YGO! Duelist vol.2. it was really touching how, tho comatose, Seto's will exists in his (now stolen) cards and how one of his BEWDs stopped on its own in the midst of attacking Yugi. ^^ oh and Seto finally regains consciousness! (YAY beware Seto's back!! ^0^) beside YGO, i also read vol.1 of The Prince of Tennis. this 1st volume consists mainly of 2 matches to showcase the main chara's talent. although it's exciting to read, what i find lacking is more depth about the plot & the charas themselves. hopefully, it will get better in subsequent volumes! :) oh i planned to talk about the 1st signs of spring, didn't i? ok. well, i'm not talking about the warm weather, the spring showers, the grass, the birds, or the budding crocus flowers here, i'm talking about bugs. BUGS! for instance, spiders are making a return appearance in my house after staying dormant all winter long; and a bug flew kamikaze-style into my face as i stepped out to get the mail yesterday morning. =_=; yep, to be sure, spring is indeed here. NOOOOO~~ ^0^ and HAPPY APRIL'S FOOL DAY!! XD lol, it kinda sucks that it has to fall on a weekday, so be careful, everyone!! btw, do you have an especially unforgettable april's fool day experience? ^0^ so far, i'm safe this year, but last year's was quite memorable. ^_^; it happened when i had just gotten out of bed and my good friend suddenly showed up knocking on my door, looking very nervous & exhausted. i asked her "what's up?" and out sprang the bomb: she suspected that she was pregnant!! 0_o;; naturally, i was shocked and panicked. at once, i was trying to remain calm, yell at her, and think of any comforting words or advices to say. just when i couldn't handle the shock anymore, my friend shouted "april's fool!" and laughed at how worried i was. she definitely deserved that (friendly?) slap to the head, lol. XI she was good tho, i'd give her that -- springing at me when i was unsuspecting & my defenses were low. anyways, who'd joke about a serious matter like that?? >_<; even now, this imaginary child of hers remains a long-standing joke between us. ^_^;; this is becoming a long post so i'll end here. ^^ i'm still trying to finish some wp's & the new theme for april, so i'll let the Sai bg stay up for a couple more days. expect a new theme some time next week! *excited* till then, have a good weekend and watch out for the cold bug! :D
