Looking Manly Today?
So, long time no see. Well, plenty has been happening, oy. Sometimes I wish I were bored.

I took the SAT yesterday. It was, well, boringly easy. I swear the PSAT was harder. I don't feel too confident about my essay, but I think everything else was a cinch. I hope it wasn't an illusion and in reality I missed every single question. That would suck.

I went to Borders today to pick up a copy of 1984 for Brit. lit. and strayed into the manga section...and came out with an armful of stuff. ^_^U There was the usual latest Hana Kimi, and some more things by Fumi Yoshinaga, who has become my new hero. I also picked up the first volume of Emma out of curiosity and love of Victorian England, and I read it and found it quite good. I also made a very happy find... Juuni Kokki, the novel! Translated by Tokyopop (thank you, Tokyopop!!). My mom footed the bill for it so she gets to read it first but I know I'll love it. I'm just so excited that the first book is finally out. I want to follow the series and find out what happens beyond what was covered in the anime.

I've also decided that I'm going to shoot for a second costume for Otakon. I wanna be Tabby from .hack//Roots (Pi is too revealing and too physics-defying, I decided, because of her insane hair). After some research I've come to the conclusion that this costume will hinge upon whether or not I can use spirit gum, which is like glue for attaching stuff to skin. I'll have to find it, along with spirit gum remover, test it, and find out if it will work for joints and won't pinch my skin since I'll be attaching a piece of fabric to my neck, basically. It will also be handy for keeping up thigh-high stockings and for attaching that belly button gem thinger (I don't think even a piercing would achieve the same look). And I'll needto get/make some clip-on neko ears, too, since I think a band would be too conspicuous. *deep breath*

Finally, the personal issue that has just arisen... I'm getting pretty sure that this guy I hang out with likes me (he asked about the status of "the love life" the other day and he seems to make excuses to touch me, urrmmm). Thing is, of course, that I'm not gonna say yes if he asks me out, and I'm worried that it will mess up our friendship, which in and of itself is not so bad, because he's kinda creepy, but he's friends with another guy who is just a riot to hang out with ad it would make gatherings awkward. And now, I've found out that he came onto one of my other friends a little while ago and, well, since the identities aren't given I think I can say it, he sent her nude pictures and requested the same from her. So yeah, my entire view of him has changed since I learned that, and I have no idea what to do. I'd like to ditch him as a buddy, but that's difficult on its own and is further complicated by the cool dude's presence. I kind of hate people now. They're so damn complicated. ARGH. I swear, everything would be easier if I lived near Exo. Then people would know right away that I'm taken and really don't want any of this crazy nonsense!
Never before have I been so thankful I don't have a camera phone though.
