   Winter Wonderland.... or not.
Kibou: It was supposed to snow last night..... about 3 inches. But there’s nothing.
Yami: Strange....
Kibou: Looking at the current weather, the low pressure cells went..... south? O_o Ok, that’s a bit out of the ordinary. But it will hit us... just later on... But enough talk about the weather. ^^; (sorry ‘bout that!) This week had it good points and bad points. And Thursday, my English class went to the library to get new books for out next book report. I got the book I wanted plus the 1st FMA manga. *dances* I’ve read it all the way through already, and I am starting to go through it again. heehee.
Yami: Well you read all the YGO manga over & over again, so this doesn’t surprise me. =P
Kibou: heh. Spanish was probably the bad part, though. My group is still annoying me. and just making me totally stressed. Thank Ra we get our regular teacher back Monday. But I got to say, Yami had a good idea with dealing with the stress. ^^
Yami: Instead of eating a bunch of food at home, we walked to the Little Store and bought some ice cream.
Kibou: I liked that. Yum.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Anika awoke the next morning earlier than usual. A slight headache bothered her, and she figured all she needed was fresh air. As the sun began to show, she made her way out to the courtyard.

Once Atem was awake, the first thing to do was to check on Anika, just to be safe. His feeling of her in trouble hadn’t gone away. He only needed a peak in Anika’s room to see she wasn’t there. She was still in the courtyard, lounging on a bench when Atem found her.
“Morning.” Atem called out, walking outside. Anika looked towards Atem’s voice.
“Morning.” She repeated, standing up.
“How are you feeling today?” Atem asked.
“I’m... fine.” Anika responded, slightly puzzled. “Why do you ask?” Atem waited before answering and shifted his gaze to the ground, then back to Anika.
“Well... I had a dream last night where you were in danger... I just wanted to make sure that everything was ok.” Anika nodded.
“Thanks for the concern. But the only thing that bothered me was a headache earlier this morning. It’s gone now.” There was another pause.
“Found you!” A voice called out. Anika looked behind Atem, and Atem looked over his shoulder to see Khalil running to Anika. He came and hugged her waist.
“Hey you!” Anika smiled, messing Khalil’s hair. He laughed.
“Something strange happened last night.” Khalil stated, suddenly serious. “I woke up in the middle of the night, and I saw someone in the room.”
“Was it me?” Atem asked. Khalil shook his head.
“He had white-ish hair....and when he left, in the dim light I saw a scar on his face...”
“Bakura?!” Atem and Anika said at the same time.
“That’s probably what I sensed last night.” Atem mentioned. “Are you sure you weren’t dreaming?” He asked Khalil, and Khalil nodded.
“If it really is Bakura, and he’s back...” Anika began. Atem let out a breath.
“We won’t let our guard down, and we’ll make a move before he does.” He turned and faced Anika. He saw a flicker of something in her eyes that gave him the feeling he had the night before. “Don’t worry, I’ll think of something.”

The day passed quickly. Darkness had fallen, and everyone was asleep. But in the dead of the night, a shadowy figure walked along the halls of the palace. This time, they went to Atem’s room, not Anika’s. Atem was sound asleep in bed. The darkened figure silently crossed the room, so they were next to the bed. They raised an arm and Atem opened his eyes just in time to see a sharp blade come down towards him. He leapt off the bed and turned to see who it was. He gasped to see who stood across the bed from him.

Sorry for it being so long!

(YLover: Wow. I didn’t expect you to finish the last quote! =P You knew it as well as I did. Heehee. Funny.)

I’m in a quote mood... So now, who said, “Since when do you bow to your rivals?”
Good Luck!

   Ash Wednesday
Kibou: Today, in my religion, it’s Ash Wednesday! People go to church and we get ashes on our forehead. (I’m not really sure why... I haven’t gone to church in a while. T_T *sobs*)
Yami: But it marks the first day of Lent, 40 days before Easter.
Kibou: Does anyone here celebrate Lent? One thing I like, is giving up something for the 40 days. I gave up gum and pickles. (Pickles are one of my favorite foods, and I’m having a gum phase I want to break... heehee) anyway, this week has been alright. At some points it could have been better.
Yami: “some points” You mean Sunday and Today?
Kibou: *nod nod* Sunday I went shopping with my grandma and my aunt. Shopping was nice, but my grandma and aunt were saying I was too thin, and I wasn’t eating enough. >< I eat a lot, I just burn it off fast! They made me feel bad, mainly because EVERYONE is thinking I’m going anorexic! Never.
Yami: How many soon-to-be world-famous chefs are there in the world?
Kibou: Exactly! ....hey... wait..... what do you mean “world famous”?
Yami: ^_~
Kibou: Yea-- we--- Ugh. Whatever. =P Today was a bit stressful, but only at the end of school. We had a sub in Spanish, and everyone was obnoxious when we were playing a game. In brief: Everyone gets cards with Spanish words on them. The teacher would say a sentence in English, and teams would have to put the sentence in Spanish with the cards. Everyone was talking, and his guy comes up to me and says, “B*tch, look at your cards.” I just glared at him. And he steps off a bit and says, “Uh... I mean ‘friend’.... check your cards.” I just continue to glare at him.
Yami: What a jerk. ><
Kibou: Yeah. But he’s just a punk, and not worth my time.
Yami: It’s a three day week, with one day down. It’ll be alright.
Kibou: Yeah. Let’s hope so.

Anime Night, Something Strange, and Hopefully Shopping.
Yami: Another Saturday is over, with the Anime Night with it.
Kibou: Yu-Gi-Oh, Naruto, and Prince of Tennis. *sigh* still love the old episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh. We’re getting to my favorite part of the season: The finals! (whoo!)
Yami: Speaking of finals, do you think the finals are over in Naruto?
Kibou: I dunno.... but it right now, it has me on the edge of my seat!
Yami: Or under the covers. ^_~
Kibou: So..... Gaara scares me. That means it’s good. I don’t do that with Prince of Tennis. Heehee. I am still amazed that Ryome won! Yes! The way that it was set up, it could have been anybody’s game.
Yami: *nod nod* Yeah. I liked that.
Kibou: Here’s the scary thing that happened last night. I was getting ready for bed, and I wanted my water bottle, but forgot to take it out of the freezer. So I had to thaw it under hot water. Bingo, Shelly’s dog, was over, and for all the time that I was at the sink, he kept staring at me! Not moving, just staring. It went on for like, 10 minutes! It... was.... creepy. Finally he moved. *sigh* It gave me the chills looked around, and went downstairs, and just went under the covers. Safe, down stairs, with Yami to protect me from.... well, I dunno.
Yami: Anything bad? And starting dogs?
Kibou: Let’s go with that.

Quote of the Week: Reputation is what other people know about you. Honor is what you know about yourself.

   Another Busy Week?!
Kibou: It’s the weekend! Finally!
Yami: And not a moment too soon! Since it’s a 4-day weekend, I’m sure you’re really glad about that.
Kibou: YES! I had to study for 2 tests in Spanish, a test in Geometry, and finish a book report.
Yami: And make cookies for Valentine’s Day. ^_^
Kibou: Yeah.... that too. Speaking of V-day, I hope everyone had a good time Wednesday. I did. I gave out cookies and Valentines to all my friends. I didn’t get anything in return, but like I was expecting anything, so it was all good.
Yami: But what about-
Kibou: Y-....Yeah..... that’s something different. ^_~ Anyway, in other news, this weekend is a 4-day weekend for me. There’s President’s Say Monday, and a school board meeting on Tuesday. I think I might actually be bored since I have no homework! O_o
Yami: You can try out some of recipes in your cookbooks.....
Kibou: Now there’s an idea!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
A few days passed, and Atem was back in his right place in the throne room. Anika had asked him to stay in bed, so he would not raise any suspicion as how he healed so quickly. Atem understood and did as Anika asked. Within the past days room was made for Khalil. Anika introduced him to everyone she knew at the palace.
“Aren’t you cute!” Mana laughed. Khalil blushed and put on a wide grin. Mahad also laughed at Mana’s response, and stated,
“Well, as cute as Mana thinks you are, I should thank you for helping out when Prince Atem was hurt.” Khalil remembered what happened that day, and nodded.

As soon as he was back on the throne, Atem ordered a search for Khalidah all over Egypt. He did not know if she was dead or alive, he wasn’t taking the chance. Atem felt that she would return, sooner or later.
“Are you ok?” Anika asked Atem, who was pacing the floor.
“Fine,” came Atem’s immediate response. Anika looked at him in disbelief. Atem saw the look, stopped his pacing, and sighed, “You’ve been in a lot of danger. I want to stop anything that could hurt you...” he trailed off. Anika shook her head.
“Believe me, Atem” she assured him. “If there was any danger coming, I would sense it.”

Later the night, a dark figure hid among the shadows along the back side of the palace wall. It snuck in by a hole in the most unguarded area.
“Too easy...” the figure chuckled quietly. They snuck inside the palace, where the halls were dimly lit by burning torches. A few guards were walking around, but not enough to stop this intruder. Stalking in the halls, the mysterious figure kept within the shadows as they neared Atem’s room. However, they stopped short at Anika’s doorway and looked in. “Much too easy.” The figure spoke again, walking in. Anika lay motionless on her bed. The figure now stood above her, and was searching for something within a pocket. They found what they were looking for, a small jar. The jar contained some sort of energy, a power. The figure removed the lid as the energy flowed out of the jar and around Anika, finally settling within her. Anika tossed and turned a little and let out a light moan. She then was quiet and motionless again. The dark figure disappeared into the night as fast as it had arrived.

Atem awoke with a gasp as he jolted from his bed. He felt that Anika was in danger. He quickly walked over to Anika’s room, down the hall. When he approached the door he whispered,
“Anika?” He didn’t wait for a reply as he entered Anika’s room. Atem peered in the darkness and saw Anika fast asleep under the covers. Atem let out a small sigh of relief. His nightmare of Anika being kidnapped was making him a bit paranoid. He looked over at Khalil, in his own little bed besides Anika’s. He looked down at Anika and stroked her cheek once, and turned to leave the room. Still he could not shake the feeling that something was wrong.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
And I actually know where this is going! (for once!)

   Eventful Saturday!
Kibou: Yesterday was busy! I woke up, and watched Yu-Gi-Oh. (The 1 ½ hours of it totally rocked!!!!!) But after that, I don’t know where the time went.
Yami: Out the window, apparently.
Kibou: My dad brought over Shelly’s dog, (So I had to deal with him for a bit.) and not soon after that Lisa called meto see if I wanted to go to the mall. I did have to exchange one of my YGO manga, so I went along with her. I exchanged my manga, went to Hot Topic and got some earrings. Anyway, I got to sites, then I went to watch Anime Night! ^^ Only Naruto and Prince of Tennis. Naruto was leaving me hanging! I’m looking forward to next week’s epi. Along with Prince of Tennis. Ryoma is kind of like me.
Yami: Oh yeah. Completely stubborn, especially if you’re hurt! You don’t ever take a break, do you?
Kibou: *shrugs* ^_^ I suppose not... Yesterday was the last day of my 30-day diet plan. (YES!) I finished by exercising like mad. XD! Later, I went back on-line and checked me e-mail. (Fanny I always know when to check it. O_o) There was an e-mail from Lisa. I got real excited, because Lisa and James (the guy she really likes) are now GOING OUT! ^^ I thought it was uber sweet. James is a really nice guy.

Quote of the Week:Life is like a bar of chocolate. Without bitterness, sweetness doesn’t mean a thing.

Video of the Week: Just about the randomest thing you will EVER see.


Yami: I think that’s the end of this post... what’s next?
Kibou: .... *smiles*... Tacos. ...
Yami: How about breakfast first?

   A Busy, but Fun Week
Kibou: Hey..... its the weekend.....cool.
Yami: Please tell you didn’t just figure that out.
Kibou: No.... I just forgot for a bit. I thought this week wasn’t going to end! Even though we had “Spirit Days” at school, it didn’t make it any shorter. (Spirit Week is a week where there’s a “dress code” that you can follow, for those who were wondering) This week, Monday was PJ day, Tuesday was Hawaiian, Wednesday was Wacky, Thursday was Stoplight day,(wear red if taken, yellow if you’re not sure, green if single) and Friday was “Cardinal Pride
Yami: Wait... what did you wear for Stoplight Day?
Kibou: Green. Just to see what would happen. And just as I suspected, nothing happened! (Yay singleness!)
Yami: Until Friday.
Kibou: Yeah well....... THAT DOESN’T COUNT! (a guy asked me out yesterday, it’s posted... ) ANYWAY! Away from all that, I know I’m going to be real busy this weekend, I have 2 papers in English to write, and 2 tests in Spanish as well. Oh well. It’s school, what do ya expect?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The next day in Egypt was illuminated by the hot sun. Keon walked and stumbled back into the village after two days in the desert. His fist clutching the reigns of an unsupplied camel. He was greeted by two other men, who looked at him with worry. “You have to get in the shade.” One immediately said. Keon nodded and was taken into his home, where in seconds, passed out. He was carried to his bed.
“Keon....?” Keon heard a voice calling his name. “Keon, please wake up...” Keon opened his eyes to see his true love looking at him with great worry. She smiled weakly to see Keon, after many hours, finally awake. Keon also saw his brother walking around.
“Glad you’re awake!” His brother spoke after giving him some food and water. “Where’s Khalil?” He asked. Keon closed his eyes again.
“I do not know.” He stated between bites. “We were both sucked under the desert sand, into an evil woman’s dwelling. I believe she took Khalil, but took him to the palace for some reason, I just hope he’s safe...”

Back at the palace, Atem was lying in his room on his bed, wound wrapped up. He had asked to see Anika and Khalil. Now, Anika stood on the wall farthest from the foot of the bed, looking away to the floor on her right. Atem was sitting up, leaning against a number pillows.
“H-how are you doing?” Anika asked, breaking the silence.
“Fine.” Came Atem’s answer. “It wasn’t too bad. The wound, that is.” Truth was, it was better then he thought, but still fairly bad. He didn’t want Anika to worry. There was another long silence.
“I’m sorry....” Anika mumbled. “This is my fault.” Atem shook his head and motioned her to come closer.
“No,” Atem began. “No it’s not. It was my plan of action yesterday, not yours.” There was another small silence, then Anika spoke,
“There... might be something I can do to help, with your wound.” Khalil looked up from the floor.
“Really? What may that be?” Atem asked, interested since he saw Khalil’s face light up.
“I may be able to help heal the wound.” She said. “As destructive as my power may be, it can also help. The first time I realized this is after Khalil scraped his knee once. I placed my hand on his knee, and it healed.” Anika looked down at Atem. Atem nodded.
“Alright, you can give it a try.” Anika was a bit nervous, she didn’t know if it would work. Still, she told Atem to lie down and uncover the injury. Then, Anika closed her eyes and put her right hand on Atem’s chest over the wound. She breathed in, and slowly let it out. A red glow appeared around Anika’s hand, and seemed to be flowing into Atem’s cut. Atem let out a small groan of pain as Anika took her hand off. All that was left was a scar. “I’m sorry.” She said. Atem laughed a little.
“It’s alright. It hurt, but it was to make it better. I thank you for that.” He looked down at the scar. He then stood and looked at Anika. “You never stop to amaze me, Anika.” he said.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

So now Anika has a new power. ^^ I was wondering if I should have that happen or not. What do you guys think?
Last week’s trivia: How many times does Shadi appear in the series?
Counting EVERY Yu-Gi-Oh series, 4. Yeah. Seems low. Shadi appeared once in “Season 0”, once in Pegasus’ castle, once in the Battle City finals, he was one of the main characters in the Memory World, and he appeared in Capsule Monsters.
Congrats to:

Ree-Ree
Follower of Atem

This week is a quote challenge! Who said:
“Why...are we...carrying this guy...that we don't even like...all over civilization?”
For an extra challenge, who is the person talking about?
Good Luck!

Kibou: I’m getting hungry.....
Yami: Yeah, me too.
Kibou: I say, we break in THE NEW TOASTER!!!!!!!!!
Yami: Uh... sure... we could do that. ^^;

*~Kibou and Yami~*

EDIT: I got a new wallpaper up. ^^ If you have time, could you check it out and tell me what you think? =D

   Well That’s Something That Doesn’t Happen Everyday...
Today was...weird. It all happened at school. This guy named Ryan was telling this girl that he was dumped by his ex-girlfriend, and that she called all the girls that hang out with him whores. He told me, so I was called a whore by this girl I never met. Which is the reason why I didn’t care. But I laughed and said, “How can I be a whore if I’ve never dated anyone?” Ryan asked why I hadn’t dated anyone, and I told him it was because I was done with love, being heart-broken 7 times. He told me that I shouldn’t let that get me down. I wasn’t, really. Also he said some other good stuff, and he said I was a nice girl. (^^ *feels special*) So anyway, school was going to start in about 10 minutes. Lisa, James, Stefi, Jared, Ryan and I were all standing in a circle, talking about weird stuff. The 5-minute warning bell rang, and Jared and Stefi left. Ryan asked where my 1st hour was, I said it was right down the hall. He said, “Well, then you don’t have to leave just yet.” I guess I didn’t, no one else was leaving. A few minutes later, he motions me to follow him away from everyone. (Uh... kay.) So this is what he says, “I’ve know you since last term in Meteorology class.” I nodded and he continued, “And, I do like you. I know I shouldn’t ask this right after a relationship, it’ll look bad, and I know what you’ve been through, but... would you go out with me?” I stood there, in complete shock, then I started laughing, He asked if I was surprised. That was an understatement! So he asked for an answer, and I asked if I could think it over. He understood, and I went to class. I felt really weird. I was really putting thought into this. At the pep fest later today, Lisa said I was kind of scaring her because I was completely pale and talked really quietly. Thoughts and questions were going through my mind. One kind of stuck out: “What is he’s lying?” I was really confused, but soon sorted it out. I would tell Ryan my answer at lunch.
So lunch came around, and I told Ryan my answer: I wasn’t ready, maybe later. The only true part was the “I’m not ready.” I did tell him he was a really nice and sweet guy, which is also true. But why I turned the offer down are of my own reasons. Because, mainly, I don’t know how to love. I don’t even know what love is anymore.
I feel a bit bad, because I know he was probably looking for a yes, and I know that this probably will never happen again. I do feel that I did the right thing. But I guess I should put this behind me. What’s done is done.

Sorry for that long rambling, this is just so weird... A guy finally faced me and asked me out and he probably actually meant it.... honesty isn’t easy to find. This is something that doesn’t happen everyday, ya know?

   FREEZING COLD!
Kibou: So here we are once again.
Yami: Posting a blog for our friends.
Kibou: Anime Night was non-existant!
Yami: However that... means... I can’t... think of anything that rhymes with that!.
Kibou: Well, then that must be nature’s way of saying “Stop the rhyming already!” Still, .... that rhyming is a pain.
Yami: Oh yeah. But yes, we did miss anime night, except for Yu-Gi-Oh, if that wasn’t obvious enough. =P
Kibou: I was..... preoccupied.

Quote of the Week: I wouldn’t do something if I didn’t know what I was doing, of course that never stopped me before.
-Kibou-

Video of the Week: this is what I was preoccupied with. This is a video I made for YamiLover’s b-day yesterday! ^^




Yay!About mid-week last week, my wallpapers got 10,000 downloads! *dances* Thanks to all of you who downloaded! ^_^
New submissions: Well, there’s an Ino e-card up, and there’s this REALLY, REALLY bad Valentine’s Day wallpaper. ^^; I did it so very long ago.....
Yami: It’s not bad, that’s impossible.
Kibou: Why is that?
Yami: It has me on it. ^_~
Kibou: If you say so Yami, if you say so. Heh... this week I will continue to hibernate in my house. Highs for the day are about -10, and the wind chills here are reaching -35! I’m not going ANYWHERE except for school. I’m also happy about this week because this is the last week for my little “30-day diet meal plan” thing I set up for myself. Life isn’t fun when you cut out chocolate from your diet!
Yami: Just one more week.
Kibou: that’s it, I’ve wasted enough of your time. =P

Kibou: A-ha! It’s the weekend! (I know, “Thanks for stating the obvious”) Before I forget, I have to ay: “TA-DA!” *spins around* New theme! It’s February, so Valentine’s Day is just 2 weeks away.
Yami: *mumbles* plenty of time to think of wha to get...
Kibou: What did you say?
Yami: ....nothing....
Kibou: anyway...This week was alright. Not too much happened. My cousin’s party was ok, even there not too much happened. =P Tuesday I took a test in Spanish, and I got a B. ^^ Wednesday we got our report cards. I was relived I didn’t fail anything.
Yami: You worked hard the last part of the term. So of course you didn’t fail anything.
Kibou: I know, but I was worried. I was failing I think everything at one point. With that whole 10th anniversary of Mom’s death, then dad yelling at me, it was tough! But anyway, Thursday was the one day I didn’t have homework. (Yay!) Friday I had 2 tests. Math and Spanish. I’m good in both subjects, but the Spanish one was oral... I hated that. We had to say the alphabet, count from 0-10, say “My name is...” “I am from....” and “My telephone number is....” I knew it, but my nervousness got in the way. (ack!) I hope that doesn’t happen again.
Yami: Practice makes perfect.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Everything was quiet. Atem held onto Anika still, Khalil quivering and clutching onto both of them. Atem put some space between him and Anika, and looked to see if she was still breathing. She was breathing, but very lightly. He went down on one knee and laid her down for a bit. Suddenly Atem but then he let out a groan as he fell to both knees, gripping his chest where the wound was.
“Prince!” Khalil exclaimed, running to the other side of Anika.
“Don’t worry, Khalil.” Atem told him. “I’ll be fine. It’s your sister is what I’m worried about.” Just as he finished speaking, Anika moaned and her eyes opened slightly.
“Sister...” Khalil said as he put his arms around Anika’s neck.
“You had me worried Anika.” Atem let out a small laugh. Anika propped herself a bit on her shoulders, attempting to get up. She looked down at her clothes and noticed a blood stain on it.
“What on.... How....” she began. She looked at Atem seeing the cut in his chest, suddenly remembering what had happed. She gasped, “Atem!” She knelt beside him. “Let me see your wound.” Anika instructed Atem. Atem winced a little.
“I’m all right.” He said, “No worries.” Still, he was in great pain. Anika turned to her brother.
“Khalil, listen to me. Run into the palace. Get anyone’s attention and bring them out here. Go, now!” Khalil nodded and ran inside. Anika turned her attention back to Atem.
“You don’t have to do this, you know.” Atem told her, his voice getting softer.
“Trust me,” Anika began. “This is nothing compared to what you have done for me....”

“Can someone help me? Anyone!” Khalil called out through out the palace. His cry for help got Mana’s attention. “Miss, please help! The Prince is hurt, my sister Anika is out with him.” Seto came up behind Mana as Khalil spoke, and he lead them both out to the courtyard.
“Prince Atem!” Seto yelled. Mahad came out to see what all the commotion was about. He ran over to help Seto lift Atem to his feet. Without a word, they helped him back inside. Mana stayed behind. Anika sadly watched as Atem disappeared within the palace. Khalil went over to Anika tugged on her sleeve.
“What’s going to happen to the Prince?” he asked. “I don’t know, Khalil.” Anika answered with tears in her eyes. “I don’t know....”

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Wow, that was one of my shortest chapters! Heehee.
Last week’s trivia: What is Seto’s step-father’s name? Answer:
Congrats to:

Dunpeil Dueliest // YamiLover03

This week’s trivia: How many times does Shadi appear in the series? (all episodes count, yes incuding season 5, duh! heehee)
Yami: Is this a trick question?
Kibou: *sly look* Well... maybe....

Yami: I believe that's it. And just in Time, Yu-Gi-Oh is almost on.
Kibou: *gasp* Yay! *grabs Yami and runs down stairs*
Yami: Not again!

   And Another Week Begins...
Kibou: Saturday was good. I got to watch Yu-Gi-Oh, Watch anime night, and I went shopping! ^^ I’ve been begging my dad to get me a pair of pants. All of mine are too big. (Yes, TOO BIG) But I got three pairs! Whoo! *dances around the room* Plus a Naruto T-shirt. I was really grateful.
Yami: Now you have more laundry to do, but you won’t have to do it so often.
Kibou: Yay for that. Um... Oh Anime Night. Well, as usual, I got too hyper. (It’s not my fault.) Yu-Gi-Oh in the morning to really wake me up, then there was the Naruto Marathon!
Yami: All that action-packed anime into 3 hours. It was very awesome.
Kibou: I loved the whole Hokage fight! It was intense! So many new jutsus... and of course, Orochimaru continues to scare me. Not only that, it confused me! Stop pulling off all the masks! Geez. That and, tuning into a woman. ((HELLO!)) O_o Prince of Tennis was good. Ryoma (sp?) is really starting to open up. Hmm...

Quote of the Week: It’s not a question of what you’re going to do, it’s how you plan to do it.

Video of the Week this had to be on of the coolest YGO AMVs out there!


Thanks: A quick thanks to those who liked my story yesterday. I was kind of worried it wouldn’t be written so well. I’m glad you enjoyed it! ^^
New Submissions: I submitted 2 e-cards in the past week, 1 Yu-Gi-Oh and one Inuyasha. Check them out if you like! =D

Kibou: Today, I’m going to my cousin Jonny’s birthday party. ^^ So cute, he’s turning 4 in a couple of days. Lisa’s coming along too. She wants to see him. That will only take 3 hours, but I still have homework. (Arg) I’ll get around to sites whenever I can.
Yami: Now, you have to go make more yummy hash browns for breakfast...... ^^ Please?
Kibou: Uhh... sure! =P
