   Ah, good times...
Do you recall my post about the GC concert? If you don't or weren't there, we got some good inside jokes from that experience. Our favorite one still is, "Hi, Billy, I'm Billy, and I look like Billy." Well, I drew a picture inspired by their first "emo" of the concert, when Billy was sitting on a stool and his head was down while he was playing the guitar, so his hair all fell in front of his face very dramatically. I showed it to Greg, and the first thing he said was, "That looks like Lisa." That was so funny...
Greg and Will are fun to talk to. I remember talking to Will once about the Japanese YGO clip I found that I've been crooning over for a while. I was like, "Yeah, Seto's voice in the Japanese is SO SEXY!" and Wil just stared at me for a minute. Then, "I'm just going to pretend I didn't hear that." Poor Will, so naive... He's definitely the least perverted in my class, which I guess isn't saying much. Andrew isn't perverted, so to speak, but he is fairly gutterminded and takes just about everything the wrong way. I really don't know about Greg. Then there's Tim, a puzzle wrapped in an enigma coated in mystery. Especially when he flirts with me. All so strange.
And, just so all you girls out there know (if you don't already), it sucks to develop early. You get "hit on" all the time, it's a nightmare... You get a real taste of how perverted some guys can be. I'm getting so off-topic here it's scary, so, umm, I'll just stop now...

Hey! Just wanted to ask you people if you've played the GBA game Lunar Legend before... It's my favorite GBA game and it's really really cool! If you have played it, I drew a picture of Ghaleon (without the stupid hat!) playing his lil' harpsichord thingy. I'm not sending it in as I don't think it's very good, but I made up this poem about when Luna first sees him. I don't know if it's any good or not, and it was very spur-of-the-moment and free verse, but here goes...

She stepped out,
Onto cool stone,
Struck by the music.
Flowing chords,
His fingers danced like water
Over the strings.
Eerie tunes,
Lukewarm but deep,
Like the sunned fountain,
In which birds sang.

Smooth,
His hair and features,
Like the tiles
Beneath her feet,
But still stones,
Despite their beauty.

I think that really captures Ghaleon when you first meet him, even if it isn't a very good piece of poetry... I think I'm much better at good prose. Oh well. *shrug*

Nope, no Dreamwizards. Conner has to leave fairly soon, so yeah... I don't see why we can't go, he has a whole hour before he has to be on the Metro! Oh well, parents will be parents.
Janime's still down. I think I'll play my Yugioh game... I feel very discouraged now. Bleh. And no one seems to be online on Sundays. I'd call Lisa but I don't know if she's home or not and phones are not really my friends. Hmph. I think I need more sleep. *already had 11 hours of sleep last night*
Demon Diary 4 was really good. -Hints- of shounen-ai... *sigh* I saw it coming since the very first volume. ^_~

Socks=Funny...somehow.
Conner's still over and is currently cleaning out the gutters for $40. I just put away my mom's laundry and found an interesting dilemma. She has mostly black socks, all the same style, but there were a few socks that were a different style. There was a grey one, a dark grey one, and a dark blue one, all in the same style but different colors. 3 mismatched socks... I found that fairly amusing.
Hopefully we can go to Dreamwizards later because I'm eager to get some more Yugioh cards. I haven't gotten any new ones since Greg gave me the Legendary Fisherman, and I don't even know how long it's been since I bought some. Maybe I'll find a good soundtrack there, too... Dreamwizards has cool stuff. Gaming and anime and some manga, too, but I think it's pretty much shounen (except for Ranma 1/2 which is both shounen and shoujo--how cool!) and some of the REALLY popular shoujo.
I'm still amazed that no one outside of me and my family and friends (since I was the one who got it) has heard of Trouble Chocolate. It's so FUNNY! It's in pretty much every anime store or anime section, and still no one seems to watch it. Next time you go to a store, get a DVD or 2 of it, and watch the dub 'cuz it's so much funnier. Trust me, you'll love it, unless you like a "serious" anime or something... TC is everything but serious, and there's comic relief even in the middle of a scene where someone's dying ("I'm being chased by a tree!"). So yeah. *advertise advertise*

TC rules all!!
Well. Lisa came over after we went to the mall (got some Naruto manga ad some Demon Diary, plus strawberry mousse Pocky since Suncoast is closing--NOOO!), and I think her being there really loosened up the atmosphere. I always feel awkward when I have to do one-on-one hosting. I ate like Almond today, honestly. First I had tuna on crackers, then a soda, then Dippin' Dots, then another soda, then string cheese, then an apple, then ramen, then ANOTHER soda, then fries and a double cheeseburger, all between 11:45 AM and 9:30 PM.
I don't care what my parents say, I like the Mr. Pencil episode. It's really touching to me. See, the kid Almond is kinda destructive and always hungry, so nobody really gets along with him well and is always scolding him. Then the mis-card Mr. Pencil appears, and this little talking pencil with arms and legs becomes Almond's friend. Whatever Mr. Pencil draws will come to life (sort of, it comes off the page 3D and all), so Almond starts using him to make mischief with the people who were mean to him, even though he's not a very good artist. Then Mint and Crunchybug (the comic relief villains, like Team Rocket) kidnap Mr. Pencil to work up some scheme with him. Almond spends all night looking for him and is starving, so Mint makes Crunchybug taunt him with food to get Mr. Pencil to draw for her. Crunchybug, being a softy, ends up letting Almond eat and Mr. Pencil is rescued by Cacao and co. At the end, Almond is on the roof of the school drawing with Mr. Pencil while Cacao and co. watch, and then Mr. Pencil tells Almond he wants him to draw a gigantic bird. Almond had tried to draw a bird earlier but failed miserably, but the tries anyway, with Mr. Pencil's help. He ends up with this magnificent bird, huge and beautiful, and it comes to life and flies away. Mr. Pencil then says he's out of lead (mechanical pencil) and has to go, and he disappears back into the mis-card, but Almond is really responsible afterwards. It makes me think it could be a odel of something to creator of TC went through. I just love the scene with the bird, it makes me cry every time.
Yeah. Conner's asleep now, and off I go to be so as well. I think Conner and Lisa are gonna be real good friends. ^_^
