   [LIFE // obsessed: more on bugs 0.o]

konnichiwa~ how was everyone's weekend & week going so far? :D i'm so sorry i'm such a moron!! i said i was going to update last week, but i ended up being blown off course by my hectic schedule, unable to either update or finish the wp's i had been working on until today. sorry!! *bows* overall tho, things were pretty boring during the week & the weekend, i was preoccupied with nothing more than a whole lot of busywork. and since i don't remember much of what happened anymore, i'll just share with you whatever comes to mind. ^^ ok. first of all, pest infestation. so, several of you know what i was talking about in my last post, right? ^^ i'm usually not the type who'd scream at the top of my lungs every time a tiny little bug crosses my path, i just esp. hate spiders...esp. when they appear indoors!! >_< after a week of careful observation, i discovered there're 2 kinds of spiders in my house: one with small yellowish-brown bodies & thin legs, the other with big black bodies & thick black legs. the latter kind, which displays amazing speeds as they scurry across a room, is by far more fearsome. ((damn they're hard to squash!!)) good things are they don't seem to make webs or hang from ceilings and, so far, are confined to the vicinity of the basement. all in all, there were approx. 10 spiders sightings last week. i'm so freaked out that as an extra precaution, i now turn on the lights, look around, and wait 10 sec before entering rooms. =_= seriously, if i ever find out the whereabouts of their hideout -- which, based on noted traffic patterns, is most likely located behind the TV -- they're SO dead. *furious chi burning behind me* well, enough about bugs. ^_^; ((inner voice: what's your fixation on spiders about anyway? me: nooo~ you just don't understand the horrors!!)) my brother and i were assigned to weed the lawn and trim bushes at home over the weekend. usually i'd moan & groan about doing yard work, but the weather was so nice (sunny & breezy & a tad cold, in the upper 50s°F i think) that i really enjoyed it. at any rate, it was a nice break from being always cooped up in a room, working in front of my compy. :) in other news, my brother, who attends high school, has just changed to a mohawk (!!)hairstyle for indeterminate reasons. as you can imagine, my parents are really shocked & angry about this (at first); and as the elder sister, i was delegated with the responsibility of persuading him to buzz it all off. -_-; out of the 3 siblings in the household, my youngest brother's definitely the "eccentric" one, hahaha...oh boy. last week, i received a bunch of photos from some people i know of the cherry blossoms in Washington D.C. & in Tokyo this year. you know, the beauty of the sakura is simply breathtaking! ^0^ *hearts* i wish i could visit those places & see the cherry blossoms first-hand. wouldn't it be nice if we can all gather under the blooming cherry trees, enjoy the fragant spring breeze, sip sake & have our own O-hanami party together? KAMPAI!! ^0^ well, that's it for this "LIFE" post. i'll move on to talking about the new theme & wallpapers & stuff (btw, i finally updated my wp's after a month of 0% production!) in the post below, please continue reading if you want! other than that, have a nice week, everyone! :)
