I have a secret...
I'm a very emotional person, did you all know that? I really just realized it. Here is a list of things that make me cry every time:
1) the Sanpo music box track at the end of the Tonari No Totoro album
2) the book "King of Shadows"
3) the episode of Furuba when Aya tells Hatori that Kana got married
4) missing a new episode of any anime I really love (all right, I guess that could be counted as 'overdramatic', not 'emotional')
5) the part of HP: The Order of the Phoenix where ______ dies
6) for about a month I cried whenever I thought about a certain guy leaving my school forever
7) getting reprimanded for anything, anything at all
8) having to do improv... *shudder* There are bad, bad memories attached to improv for me.
Yes, I was bored and did another one of these posts again. I'm just like that.

   .......yawn?
Whoohoo! My site is dying! I got about two visitors in the last three days! Hey, at least I haven't gotten any homework yet.
Yeah, my day was very boring. 'Literary Day', meaning we get into groups and dicuss our summer reading assignments. Fun? Not really, no. Then we had church, and then... I came home.
And now I have to do dishes, but I'm going to be lazy and procrastinate. I hate dishes. They mock me with their uncleanable dirtiness, saying, "Ha! You'll never get this sticky rice residue off of me!" or, "Soy sauce stains coming out of plates? Are you crazy?" And sometimes they hide, too. They stay out in the dining room or end up behind kitchen appliances. Yes, those hell-born beasts despise me, as I despise them.

   OK...
I just got up about an hour ago (late-riser-- I watched IY last night and then stayed up writing), and realized the power had been out while I was asleep. The clock was flashing, my music was off, but it didn't look stormy outside or anything. My friend told me it rained, but that was it. How weird.
Well, back to school again tomorrow, the two-day break is almost over. I finally got all my school supplies and had fun decorating my binders with pics from all around the web. I'm only missing one thing off the list. A stretched canvas. This doesn't seem too odd, right? We have an art class, we do projects like this in it. Well, this is about the most elaborate thing we've ever done. We've also made baskets and done crappy pastel drawings, and we have that mural at the beginning of every year. This time I'm gonna paint a Clydesdale! Anyway, in case you haven't gotten the idea... our school sucks.
I leave you to mull that over. Jaa.

   Well, well, well...
First day of school. Wow.
This is going to be an interesting year.
We have my least favorite teacher for lit., but it doesn't look like she'll be nearly as bad as last year. We have science with the same teacher as last year, and I still hate her. Computers will be absolute torture, as they have some program up to keep us on specified sites. Math will be easy, but boring (geometry), but sort of interesting as we have completely different textbooks from last time and... no teacher. English? Spanish? Music? Art? I realy don't know about them. Social studies is going to rock. We have my fave teacher, plus it's an all-girl group. P.E. will be hell as always.
Plus we have to apply for high schools this year, and get Confirmed (it's a big religious thing, in case you didn't know). Oh boy, what fun! <--(dripping with sarcasm) T_T I don't want to die...

   I so kick butt!
Well, I wish I did. But I'm doing really well on my Yugioh GBA game. And it's called Stairway to the Destined Duel Worldwide Edition, or something like that. For interest's sake. I just got through with Target Week, that was fun. Except the first time I started it I had Joey as one of my targets (was I ecstatic or what?), but I had to restart and I got Rex and Bakura the next time... I'm not happy about that.
It makes me remember acting camp, where I met a couple of guys who played YGO. There was one guy who traded me a sucky card for a really good one, and that was cool, cuz I got the good one. Another one annihalated me in two duels. And the last one I dueled and beat three times in a row. Funny thing is, the guy I beat beat the guy who beat me. My brain hurts.

Shiroi's Yugioh CCG Info:
Deck (my favored one) type- beatdown, but with a fair arsenal of magic and traps
# of cards in deck- um, 67, I think... I'm really not sure
# of cards total- ? (Can anyone ever tell?)
Fusion deck?- Yes, 2 fusion monsters
Fave monsters to own (whether I do or not)- Magician of Black Chaos, Harpie's Brother, Flame Swordsman, Wingweaver and Cosmo Queen, as many Red Eyes as possible, and it's various forms
Fave cards to play- Muka Muka, Summoned Skull, Monster Reborn or Change of Heart combos, Cyber Jar, monsters with 2000 DEF points, facedown of course

And now you know all you need to know to beat the crap out of me! ^_^ Enjoy!

   Parades are not the best places to meet people
Labor Day parade today, whoo! It's not so much the parade we went for... it's the guys. There was this group of hot Spanish-looking dudes doing some kind of dance (like every other person in the parade who wasn't driving a truck, riding a horse, or making their own music).
Other than that, the venture wasn't much of a success. I walked to my friend's house for the first time, and I got lost once, but not very lost. But my feet got tired and my friend had already left for the parade without me. So I went to my other friend's house-- she happens to live just down the street from 1st Friend-- and they had already gone from there, too. So I walked down the street and through numerous parade people preparing and crowds gathering, until I finally spotted them. Except that they were standing across the street, didn't notice me, and the parade had already started, so I was stranded.
I eventually made it to them and we looked around after the parade for some guy they knew from the pool. We didn't find him, or anyone else we knew lived in the area, so we eventually went home because 2nd Friend needed to go out with her parents at a particular time. So 1st Friend came over to my house-- via walking-- and we hung out, and she just left. My feet hurt like you wouldn't believe.
Ouch.
...
Ouch.
...
I hate blisters. And fish roe, but mostly blisters.

   Why are married men still hot?
Well, the G&S singout was a big success. I did H.M.S. Pinafore in the morning, Mikado in the afternoon, and Pirates of Penzance at about nine at night. A day of singing G&S operas, soprano, with little sleep from the night before... Blah!
Bill, the cute guy, wasn't there at all. My friend Chasandra signed up but went to the Renaissance Festival with her friends instead. But Phil was there! And he did the tenor part of Frederick in Pirates that he did in the performance before, and he was wonderful as always. But though he is hot... he is married. Life is so cruel sometimes. But that's just the way it is. Grr.
Another question for you: Why are gay guys often hot as well? And funny too, funnier than most straight guys. Why does nature torture us like this?!
If you happen to be a male reading this... I wish you hadn't. Oh well.

   Break a leg, me
OK! The G&S singout has officially started. I just wasn't in anything tonight. Tomorrow I'll be doing the big three, Pirates of Penzance, The Mikado (what a weird opera...), and H.M.S. Pinafore. Whoopee! I'm getting addicted to that song "Miya-sama" (that's my interpretation of the title, it makes sense that there was some person named Miya with high authority whom the song was written about), as it's the only thing in the opera that's actual Japanese. I mean, what kind of Japanese name is Yum-Yum? Actually, what kind of a name is it in general? Oh well, that's how it's written... *grumble, grumble*
I'm sure none of you have the slightest idea what I'm talking about. G&S doesn't seem too popular, especially with otaku like us. Meh, it's all my dad's fault for getting me into it.
Oh yeah, got a new YGO GBA game. I haven't had a chance to play it though, what with the start of the singout and sleep. So... Oyasumin, I'm actually going to bed at a decent hour tonight.

   Whee?
I have no idea why I'm posting. I just need to type to keep my fingers warm. Warmth... Ah... Don't you feel good that by being here to read this post you are keeping my fingers from getting frostbite and having to be sawed off? Well, not techincally sawed... It sure sounds more dramatic that way though. "How bad is it, Doc?" "Well, I think we're going to have to saw those fingers off." Without painkillers... Mwahahahaha!!! OK, I do a sucky evil laugh. It's true. I'm just not evil like that. I am, however, evil in that I post pointless posts and force you to read them if you want to know what happened at 1:30 last night in my house. Which is... ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!! Except that my fingers were cold so I typed to warm them up. Fascinating. But repetitive.
Bleh. My fingers are very warm now. I will leave you in peace. Bleh again. *yawns*

   Whew!
Well. That was certainly an interesting three days. Full of nasty, strange thunderstorms and power-outages galore. On Tuesday there was a hurricane-like storm that forced me into the basement while I was home alone, with the power out. The power eventually came back on, but then yesterday there was another spectacular storm.
We were at a sushi restaurant waiting for our takeout when we noticed the thunderstorm coming in; we had been expecting it but hoped we would be home by the time it really got started. We sat by the window and watched the huge streaks of lightning. When we finally got our food and went out to the car, the storm was coming in hard. The wind was pretty bad to be standing outside in, so we ran for the car and took off for home, but got stuck in a parking lot just as the full fury of the oncoming storm front hit us. The wind was crazy. It was coming from a side of the parking lot devoid of trees, and it was blowing shopping carts across the lot. They seemed to be rolling along at breakneck speed on their own, since you couldn't see the wind. We made it around to the side of a building for shelter and only got hit by one cart which miraculously did no damage. We stayed by the building in the car for a while, and then the hail hit. It wasn't very big, but the wind was nasty, so we grabbed jackets and shielded our faces in case the windows broke. Eventually the wind died down and we made it home all right, but the power was out and it stayed that way until about an hour ago. ;;^_^ The dogs were scared to death, but once the storm was gone Czar calmed down. Chaucer never calms down, she's an Aussie.
Oh, and the sushi was delicious. The moral of this story is (ahem): "If you don't like tough food, octopus is not for you."
Jaa for now.
