...can't think of anything...

9:38PM I'm a bit better now. Spent a pretty good day today. Not much, but it was my first day off in a while. I went to Barnes & Noble today. Bought The Vampire Lestat (now I can finish reading it), some Japanese books, and a manga. The manga is the 2nd volume to Chronicles of the Cursed Sword. It's a really good Korean manga. The story line is good, mostly becuase I like demons and it's filled with them. Also the characters really change drastically. Not just in how they are but also they're physical appearance. I once took a peek in a future volume and I couldn't even recognize the main char. Even though it's the 2nd volume the main char still has tattered clothes (usually chars magically get a nondamaged replacement outfit) also the main char already experienced a change. I think he may be part demon, but I'm not sure. I found out that the bookstore now sells J-Pop and J-Rock, but when I saw a glance of it all I saw was DBZ soundtracks and stuff. Kind of a dissapointment. I should slap them and tell them to carry Gackt, Dir en Grey, GLAY, globe, X Japan, etc. My step-father and I then went to CD Exchange to check out what they had. I checked out their anime, they really didn't have anything good. I was going to buy a Rurouni Kenshin DVD until I saw something amazing: A SECTION ON JAP CDS! They were mostly soundtracks, but I was shocked. They also had a few Do As Infinity CDs. But later I found the jackpot: A DIR EN GREY CD! I immediatly put away the Kenshin DVD and decided that this did it. It was only a single CD to Filth, but it was Dir en Grey dammit. So I bought that and a Gundam Wing soundtrack. As I was listening to my new Dir en Grey my mother walked in my room to grab hangers from my closet. She used to kinda freak out when I started listening to J-Rock but now she's used to it. I remember when I started and she yelled, "What's wrong with American music! You're not Japanese, so why do you listen to Japanese music!" I didn't say anything but I just thought "Well, you're Hispanic. I don't see you listening to Tejano or any other Hispanic music 24/7." As she heard the Dir en Grey she just said, "Satan's music, eh?" Of course she was just joking, but I told her, "Well, you know, the Japanese don't really believe in Christianity. So they don't beleive in Satan." I know that some do, but it's not a dominant religion. She just said, "And that's why they're going to hell!" Of course she was joking again, but it annoys me when she always does that. She'll say that about gays/bi's, "heathens", even myself at times. It annoys the hell out of me. First reason: I have friends that are gay/bi and I hate it when people talk about my friends in that way whether they're joking or not. Second: You could say that I'm a "heathen". I have no religion. I almost became an atheist once, but I'd rather read the Bible first before I declare myself one. I'd rather be an atheist with a defined reason like my uncle other than one with no reason like my friends. My mother annoys me a lot. I can't wait to get out of this damn apartment. Well, whatever. Sayoonara. Ja mata ne.
