   PWNAGE!!!
D00d, I just did something that makes me super happy... (dealing with DDR, how obvious.)

I GOT MY FIRST AAA ON STANDARD!!

(For you non DDR-ers, getting a AAA is getting all Perfects. X3 You've mastered the song.) Looklook! ^_^; For all of you thinking "omg I'm horrible and I'll never do that", don't worry, with practice you will! I myself thought an AAA would be impossible to get, but it wasn't. Even TRYING to get it was horrible. I kept messing up one note, had to restart the song. I spent at least an hour today trying to get teh AAA.

And I also AA'd a song I've been trying to get FOREVER. Daikenkai on Standard. :D 'Bout time I did it well. And no pic for you guys, sry. You can kind of see me in the TV's reflection. >.> But you can see the stepchart. Doesn't look hard, but it kinda is.

There was also the last band concert of the year tonight. D: My last middle school one. I was sad. At the end I carried a symbol to the band room. I felt like a samurai, the ones that have those straw hats. Well, in the animated video for Daikenkai in DDR, there's this little samurai dude. I thought up of this poem, and then changed it into a haiku:

I'm that samurai
from Daikenkai, that was owned
by spiffeh ten greats.

(I got 10 greats in the the AA I got on Daikenkai that I mentioned above... :3) Anyway, I'm going to draw myself carrying the symbol and saying that. XD I can't wait to do it.

And did you know that one of the longest words you can type out with only your left hand is stewardess? Try it yourself. X3 (That's a spiffeh random fact from one of my friends.)

Anyway, I think I should go. It's 10:15 p.m. :o Yay, in ~3 weeks I won't have to go to bed early anymore. T.T (Actually, even in summer my parents make me go to bed by 10:30 when I sleep upstairs. D: When I sleep downstairs usually they never come down. -knock on wood-)

I only proofread this a little, so sorry for any typos/confusion. I always manage to type somethin' confusing.

Later's ya'll!

   MEH.
You know what? My DDR mats are really dumb. X_X OIGSUEOIURWOPER8723097489IEFHALJSGHWIUERY!!!!! That's what I have to say about them. T.T The down arrow on my oldest mat has a tendency of not working, and on my newest one (which is only about 3 months old, I think), the up has a REEEALLY bad tendency of either registering too early, late, or not at all. The same goes with the other arrows (only occasionally, though). I was trying to get a good grade on this song called INSERTiON (Look at teh stepchart!!!1one! IT IS FUN!), and my mat kept registering up too early, causing me at least 5-10 Goods/Almosts/whatever in the first FIFTEEN MEASURES. I saw a really nice mat at a video game store I went to on Friday- a METAL one that was SUPER SPIFF3H- but it was $130... I only have $60. And NOTHING in the bank. I figure that if I get some kind of babysitting job in the summer, I might raise enough money- (I only need $70... ^_^) but it might get sold out by then. Oh em gee my plastic mats need to DIEEEEEE!!

Okay, I think I'm done.

The DDR machine is fixed at the arcade I go to!! >3 And I went Friday! I did both of my rounds against this guy who goes to my dads work. Spiffeh. :o

Yeah. I'm going to go vent off some steam at my crappy DDR mats by playing Pokemon Emerald on my GameCube!! (I have a Game Boy player~! Heheheh...)

Rawr. >.>

   Nooooooooooooo...
Crap. X_X The DDR machine at my arcade is "out of order". I went there yesterday, all excited to do it, and it's not on. The screen's black, no lights on, and there's a sheet of white paper that said out of order. It was unplugged, too. I wish one of three things to happen:

1) They get it fixed as soon as they freaking can.

2) They get a SuperNova (since it's coming out on Monday... perfect timing, eh? XDDDD)

3) They repair it SOOON AAAAND get a SuperNova. They'd rake in the money then. xD

I doubt 3 will happen, but I hope 1 or 2 does. If by some extreme (lolz, the machine there is Extreme XD I make great puns!!1!) chance they GET RID OF IT, then I WILL FLIP. Cause the closest one would be 45 mins.-1 hour away. D: GUH.

Anyway...

Well, yesterday there was a science test, and I bombed it. X_X (I got a 66(.6)%!! AAAAH!! The sign of the devil!) If my parents knew, then I would probably say goodbye to all electronics for the rest of the summer. Which would probably cause me to go into hysteria or some random diesease where I go crazy from lack of my passions. Or, if my mom just sees that I got 24/36, she'd go "WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED GRAH Ublah balbhbluwero!!! X_X" Then again, if I can manage to buy a synthesizer and am allowed to go on the computer but not the internet (WHICH WOULD BE DUMB), I could write music. YAY! But, I doubt she'd ground me. XD Just get mad (LIKE SHE SO INFAMOUSLY DOES).

CHANGING THE SUBJECT, have I told you guys that I really want a synthesizer? Hopefully you all know what that is. XD Heh, I used to think NAOKI just... did his songs like all bands. With a bass, a drum set, vocalists. He acutally does (almost) all of his songs on a synth. ACTUALLY, I used to think NAOKI was a band. XD Really. I was so naive back then.

Umm. I think I'm gonna go now, work on a doodle I'm doing. :) Heh.

I have the urge to say a random quote of d00m from a topic on the forums on DDRFreak.com.

"I'll bet he stole that watch too. Freaking speed mod users."

(If you wanna read the topic from which that stems, go here . Be warned, though... on one/two of the pages (6 is one) there's a little bit of profainty. x_o It's pretty funny overall. ;D

I gots to go now.

Later's ya'll!

   Urrrgh...
I'm still a little busy with school and track and stuff, but I think I'll be done [with track] by Wednesday. I'll be on a lot more, then. ^.^ It makes me HAPPY.

Other than that... not much else has happened. It's been the usual biz with DDR, some new accomplishments. This Saturday I went to the arcade (to do none other than DDR XD) And I sightread a song called ORION.78 (AMEuro-Mix) on Heavy. It's a 9-footer (or a 9/10 on a difficulty scale, 10 being the hardest) and I cleared it with a B!! ::faints:: I'm so doing it again next time I go. >3 Heheheh.

I'm also drawing another picture of Maeda-san on teh computer. I don't honsetly think there's anyone anywhere who's as obsessed with him as I am. (Okay, maybe there are and I just don't know it... :o )

And also, there's this really cool game that was just released Stateside called 'beatmania'. (If you wanna see how it works, look here.) I am SOOOOOOOOOO going to get that game, but it's $60. I have enough money, but I really want a synthesizer, since I'm wanting to start writing music. Guess it's 'cause of DDR! Don't you all think so? ^^

I have to go now. RIGHT now. I'll hopefully be on again soon!

Later's y'all!

   Need I explain myself?
Didn't think so...

Just dropping by. I realized I haven't posted for... erm... !!! NINE DAYS! And it's almost MAY. X_X I'm scared.

Well, I'm supposed to be doing homework right now, so this won't be the longest post. Hahahah. Oh, but I wouldn't be here if not for some reason... let's see... well, band students were supposed to go to this theme park for a contest. So, the busses are halfway there (we'd traveled about 1 1/2 hours) when it turns out that THE PARK WAS CLOSED. We were supposed to perform at about 1:30... the band teacher didn't want us to sit around for four hours with nothing to do (it was about 9 at the time), so we turned around and went home. T.T So I've gotten Saturday free to do some work on my two projects due next week and my science homework. LAWLZ. I have too much stuff to do.

Oh, and my DDR 5th mix soundtrack came in Tuesday! w00t! The day it came I loaded some songs onto my mp3 . Today was actually the first time I listened to the CD itself. Heeheee...

Oh yeah. Track meet on Monday. It's the only home one... I was put in shuttle hurdle, 200 meter hurdles, and a 4 x 200. I don't mind the 4x200... but see, when I was running through the hurdles, I COMPLETELY tripped. My hands and right elbow were scraped. Mind you, I hardly ever do hurdles. So the meet will stink on Monday. I can walk over the last hurdle if I don't have energy left (which I'll have to do).

ANYWAY.

I should go now. I'm going to the arcade later to do some DDR. ^.^ So I'm going to to science homework!

(And to think the only reason I came downstairs was to get my mp3... I ended up using the computer... ^_^;)

Later's ya'll!

   I HAVE BEEN EATEN
...by school. X_X

Yesterday was possibly the worst day of my life. I only got six hours of sleep the night before (because there was a REALLY late track meet, I didn't get home until 10, and didn't get to bet until 11 and THEN I had to get up early). I've been really stressed with bunches of school work and stuff, and there's a test for science on Monday. On Wednesday the stress was just so bottled up that after science, I started crying. I told myself to go to the school councelor. It was perfect timing, too- at lunch. (I'm not being sarcastic, by the way. I'd rather miss being in the lunchroom than missing class XD) So I ate lunch up in the councelor's office. Apparently she gets a lot of people at this time of year, crying and stressed about all the projects and stuff....

PLUS I have track. That adds to the stress.

But everything's better now, especially after a good night sleep. I have almost no homework tonight, and tomorrow there's a track meet, so I won't have to worry about much after school. I'm running in a 4 x 200 relay! Yippee! T_T I ABSOLUTELY HATE running in a 4 x 200. It's awful. For me, at least.

OH, and I ordered another DDR soundtrack. ^_^; 5th mix. I ordered the last one in stock, too! (I got it through Amazon.com...) It should be here by Friday/Monday. ::dances::

I think I gots to go now, so I'll be seeing you all! =D

And any new ideas for a layout?

GRAAAAH
My life has been so majorly busy. In fact, right now is pretty much the first time this week I've had time for computer o_o; I'm not avoiding anyone. It's just... x_X All this dumb homework in school, plus projects and track. NOT FUN.

Once the end of May rolls around, everything will be fine. <3

Other than that crap, nothing much has happened except for both of my DDR mats being dumb. On my old one, the down arrow has an evil tendency to give me a 'Boo' or 'Almost' or whatever (when I'm using that arrow), at least once a song, but not always. And then on my new one, my UP arrow is the evil one. Not the down. (Okey, so it's not always up...)

I think I may go on iTunes(.com? XD) to search for some DDR music to buy/download/whatever. If I can find any, then I will be happy! There're some songs from 3 different soundtracks I would like to listen to, but I'm not waisting $60 bucks on them. The soundtracks. O.O Yeah. Soooo...

I think I shall go now. I have some research to do for this project. >.> Dumbness.

And speaking of projects, I got my grade for the language project I had did recently. Out of about 100 of the students in all of my teacher's 3 language classes combined, two people got 100%. And guess what? I was one of 'em. :D I thought I would get points off for something, BUT I DIDN'T! Happy dance!

'Kay, I'm gone now. :3

   I'm so lazy!
No, actually, I'm just busy. o.o

VERRRRRY busy.

I have two projects- one's due Monday. It's a language arts project; we had to read these memoirs and we have to have a display board with... stuff on it. Stuff we did in class... yada yada. And we have to make a speech. x.X Argh.

The other isn't due for a while, though 24 days isn't too far off... D: ZOMG I'VE HARDLY REASEARCHED ANYTHING!! I have to get working. SOON.

And track is also causing me to be busy 'til 5, and when I'm done with supper I usually do homework, and it all gets done by like... 7/8 pm, and I'm not anywhere near a computer at that time, soooo...

I haven't drawn in a while... sort of. xD Ah well.

Ohhhh, my friend's having a birthday party tonight! We're going to see the movie 'She's the Man' and then do some DDR afterwards. :D Fuuuuuun. And then we'll go eat pizza. YUM!

Speaking of my friend, the same one that's having a party tonight, she, myself, and another friend who's coming to the party (sorry if that's confusing >_^ I think it is...) are forming a DDR team~! And we're going to have T-Shirts! I have the design and stuff, now we just have to get some special ironing paper, 3 T-shirts and iron the pictures on. Woooooo!! ^^

Anyway... I think I need to go work on my board. And get ready for the birthday. :D So...

   WELL, hello...
I won an art contest recently. :3 And got $500 cash.














AHAHAH, April Fool's!

That was a lame joke, eh? Ah well. It's alomst 10:30, so I'm not very witty. >_^

Ooooh, but guess what? I went to the arcade just a while ago (for DDR purposes, obviously)... well, I tried doing the song RHYTHM AND POLICE that I memorized on Light, did it backwards without looking at the screen at all. Aaaand I did it~! Yesterday, I forgot the very end and got a C. Buuuut this time I only had 8 Greats- SOOOO close to a AAA. I was soooo happy. XD All the people that were watching me... my dad said their jaws were dropping. (Well, alomst all of them, I think.) There were some older girls watching, and he said one of them said "She must do it a lot!" Nooooo. No way I do it a lot! XD Sorry, had to be sarcastic.

Dude, I love my MP3 player~ I recorded about 20 tracks (with the built-in microphone) and have already burnt up 3 batteries. GO ME. 8D ::dork::

Well, I should go. My dad might come downstairs soon. O.o

Track didn't eat me up. Yar. Actually, Friday was nice, except we jogged outside for about 2 miles. It was cold and had just rained... but...

Oh, and I rented Tales of Legendia a while back! It's so cool, but it won't replace ToS. EVER. Although, I have to admit, the main character Senel is uber cool, this knight named Chloe reminds me of Sheena (dunno why, she just does XD) and one of the characters, Will, has a voice that sounds a LOT like Kratos. It's an interesting game, but it's due back tomorrow. D:

Yeah, well, I'll get headed now. :3

Later's ya'll!

EDIT:

Oh my goodness. I looked up information on www.imdb.com for Tales of Legendia, and Will's voice actor IS the guy who did Kratos in ToS! Cam Clarke! Dude, I've got good ears. :3 Yay~ -huggles Kratos plushie- And this one silly character, Moses, was done by Shiloh Strong- Zelos' voice actor. XDDDD He did a good job on his voice.

OKAAAY I am done rambling. :o

   Oh my goddes Martel.
I AM SO SORRY. ;o;

I haven't even visited in, what, a week? It's cause of DUMB SCHOOL. I have track now 'til halfway? though May or so, so I have less free-time. I get home around 5, have homework and stuff, so LESS COMPUTER TIME OH NOES D:

But...

I got an MP3 player for moi birthday! I ish now FOURTEEN! <3 I have around 85 songs from DDR alone. O.O Scary. Speaking of DDR, it was on Good Morning America today. It was kind of short... it was on 'cause Madonna had it in a music video. XD It was interesting. In West Virginia, they have DDR as part of their P.E. stuff. MY GOODNESS, if we had that at my school, that would make me actually WANT to come. :o But, there were two people that demonstrated it. They did BREAK DOWN! on Beginner. I almost fainted 'cause I love that song, and NAOKI wrote it. XD I'd be like, 'STANDARD!! I SCREW UP ON THIS HEAVY D: And I luff this song~' and 'I need to be quiet now.' Really, I do.

Ah, but I took the last two days to memorize the whole steps to the song 'Rhythm and Police' on Light. I can do the whole song BACKWARDS! So, when I go to the arcade on Saturday, I can kind of show off and do it backwards.

And the only reason I was able to do that is: I bought a new DDR version. MAX. ^^ Heehee... I could ramble, but I'll just say that the instruction booklet had INTERVIEWS. ::gasps:: One of which was with NAOKI. It even had a piccy of him~ with his awesome auburn hair... kind of messy. But I like his hair like that. <3

I think I must go now. I've rambled. XD -starts listening to MP3-

Later's ya'll!

(Ignore any typos... xD)
