I know it's been more than a year since I've updated my journal, so I found that it be fitting if I did around now, when I've gotten my latest artistic fling.

My shoe business isn't even really a business anymore. Lol. Actually, I don't think it ever was, especially since someone else was apparently doing "all of the shoes" and that "you never did shoes". God, I love our seniors of the art class.

Anyways.

This summer has been nothing but a boring one, of course, just sitting here, playing RO, doing shoes, and being bored to death. Go figure.

But, just before band camp's starting, I've gotten a creative wave. It's been a while since I've had one of these, so it feels good.
In truth, I've been kind of bored of art for the last year, and not really feeling like doing anything.
It's refreshing to know that I still enjoy doing art and that it's not so boring.

Anyways, usually around this time in my journal, I would announce yet another kiriban, but you know, I think I've grown out of that.
I think that if anyone wants anything, just let me know. It'll give me something to do.

And without further ado, I think it's time for my dA to be revamped.
So, in the next few days, hopefully I'll get to do that.

Leave me comments, whatever.

I missed dA.

I'M NOT DEAD, KIDDIES!


Well yeah, I know I never get on here that much anymore, but I thought I'd just let you guys know that I actually AM alive, and I check it out everyday.
And despite my laziness this summer, I have actually managed to get back on my art track.. A little.

A few new Deviations..

And something I haven't done in a while....

A NEW KIRIKIRI KIRIBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!

This time, the big one's at 5,555.

I'm sure all of you know the rules, the prizes, and all that jazz, so.. We'll just skip that.

As for my life?
Eh, nothing out of the ordinary.
Just a shitload of drama, and a few things to look forward to here and there.
Oh, and band, of course. Lol.

STARJAM IS ON FRIDAY! - excited. -
Yeah. I'm stoked.

But yeah.
I thought I should probably make a decent NOT SURVEY journal.

So remember, kiddies.

5,555! CATCH IT!™

I'm almost to 5k pageviews, and so I thought it'd be awesome of me to take the time to thank all of you wonderful people who actually give a shit and look at my work.

Haha.

Thanks all for the comments, the favs, the watches, etc. etc.

And as your payment..

I'm doing the kiriban thing again.

Even though I know I don't really have the time to do it outside of school, but I promise, I'll try this time.



KIRIBAN IS AT 5000 PAGEVIEWS!

If you get it, send me a screenshot and tell me via:
MSN: NotMeantToExist@Gmail.com
AIM: Aru Tamashi
or my e-mail: HikariTheShinigami@Gmail.com
Or send me a note on here.

Winner will get a drawing of just about anything they want WITHIN REASON.

XD

Just inquire once you win and I believe you, and we'll go from there.

So..

Like I haven't said in a long time.

Like, today we had to register for next year's classes.

Big whoop, I did this last year.

My lineup:

English III (Honors) [ Yeah, I totally chicken'd out of AP.. Pretty much because of the test and the money.. ]

AP Calculus [ If I pass pre-cal, rofl. ]

US Government (Regular) [ Lol. No honors, and I AM NOT taking AP with MORELAND. AGAIN. You can't make me go through that again. Ever. ]

AP Psycology [ My favorite class, maybe except for band. Adam's taking it.. and like, a million other people I love. It's going to be amazing. 'Nuff said. ]

French I and II [ Because I AM NOT taking Spanish or Latin. Blah. And I know the French teacher is amazing. ]

Marching band [ My new found love. It's the class that keeps me sane in the end. It's a class where I'm surrounded by people I know, friends, and all, where I'm outside, traveling, and getting exorcise in a way I enjoy. It's a must. ]

Anyways, back to the story.

My main thought then, "Wow, they better not fuck up my schedule 5 times again."

And, because I had to go with the flags to the middle school (that sucked, bad), I was in class late.

So I go to the office with Ashley and get all that situated..

Then I go to class.

And Mrs. Stansbitch is up at the overhead, giving the usual lab quiz, since today was lab day.

"Where's your note?"

"The office took it. They said call them if you need info."

"Oh, well, they need you in guidance."

"Can I at least leave my stuff?" (I had EVERYTHING with me, and I was soaked, if you want a visual. I look like a walking zombie with a broken back.)

"No, take it with you. Go!"

.....
Jeez.

So I walk in there, totally feeling like an idiot, and the lady asked if I was me, and I sat down at the table with the rest of the kids with my guidance counselor.

She gets over to me, acting like I have everything done, and was all like, "You ready?"

I was like "Uh, no. I don't know what I'm supposed to be doing.. I just got here."
I could have sworn my eye was twitching, as Tsuki (who was sitting at the other table) was staring at me, kinda giggling to herself.

My counselor handed me these 2 highlighters and told me to highlight stuff..

She highlighted my classes that I was going to take, and left.

So I'm sitting there, looking at this mysterious white paper.
With my fugly school picture at the bottom.

I was so confused. @_@

And I hear RyanStacy, asking people their rank.

Rank?
Wtf?

And of course, he asks me.

And I looked at him, and was all like, "Wtf are you talking about?"

He pointed to this box on our transcript, where it gave our class rank.

35.

I guess that's good, right?

Well, that's what I thought, until I realized that all the people I hang out with have higher ranks than me.

Kinda pissed me off, being the person who likes to be either the same as them, or higher.

So it's been bothering me all day...

One number never bothered me so much, seriously.

Not even that 27 I got on my Pre-Cal test.

35 out of 296.

Wouldn't most people be happy?

I try to look at it and be happy, but it just keeps irking me..

What should I do?!

x.x

I'm not dead!

Can you believe it?

Lots of things have been going on lately, and my life's getting more screwed up by the minute.

Things are constantly fixed and broken again.

Tis life?

But anyways..

Just thought I'd leave a little note on here for anyone who might actually care?

Oh, and sometime this weekend, I plan to upload some of the doodles and stuff I've done over the past month or so in my new sketchbook Neko bought me for my birthday.

And maybe some new stuff, that's completely my own?

How's that sound?

Because right now, I'm in an uber creative mood, and I'm trying my own style for now.

Jennie, I blame you, you azn you! D=

But it's a great feeling, really.

It's been months since I felt like drawing this bad.

I miss it. =/

Besides, I have nothing better to do until Monday. - twitch. -
Especially not that nasty looking Chemistry paper.............

=]

So be on the lookout for some uploads, and maybe an actual blog for once.

Just for the sentimental value of me getting off my ass to type out my feelings again.

^^

Off to Tsuki's I go~!

Sayonara minna!

2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn’t make sense. NO CHEATING!
4. Tag 5 people.
5. Bold the questions and with the answers, give your own comments on how it relates to the questions.

1. How are you feeling today?
"Kataritsugu Koto" - Chitose Hajime.

Sort of, I suppose. When I read the translations to this song, this one part stood out to me:

"Your beautiful smile, it moves my heart
when I’m stuck within a storm
I want to protect you, give your everything
because those thoughts turn into strength for me"

I guess that kinda explains how I feel around now. x.x

2. Will you get far in life?
"Break Me Down" - RED.

By finding the real me deep down inside.

3. How do your friends see you?
"Every Heart" - BOA.

They see me as someone who really wants to find love, and someone that has a lot wrong with her deep inside. I'm very emotional, so that fits pretty well. They know that I'll always be there to laugh or cry with them and that no matter what happens, we'll keep on going.

4. Will you get married?
"Butterfly" - smile.dk

As soon as I find my samurai. ^^

5. What is your best friend's theme song?
"Imperfection" - Skillet.

Wow. This really does explain a LOT.
Tsuki, go look this up, if you're reading it. I think I've just found your song. For sure.
This is really starting to scare me. o_o;

6. What is the story of your life?
"Tearless" - Iceman.

Argh. I can't find translations.
But it's a pretty sad sounding song.. So I guess it would explain my life sometimes?

7. What was high school like?
"Hanazo Mukashi no Kaoru ni Kaoru Ikeru" - Antic Cafe.

Yes. It is filled with squeaky, random, guitar solos. o.o
Lol.

8. How can you get ahead in life?
"R-Evolve" - 30 Seconds To Mars.

By finding what's wrong with me and changing it or start all over.

9. What is the best thing about your friends?
"Lift It" - Thousand Foot Krutch.

They've tought me a lot, and I'll never forget everything I've been through with them. They're amazing.

10. What is in store for this weekend?
"Hoshi" - Tousen Kaname.

Dude. First of all, Tousen's voice makes me wanna barf. Second of all, if he's supposed to be all evil, and has some slow song.. Isn't that just bad for his image..?!
I'm afraid of looking up translations, so I'm just gonna skip this question.

11. To describe your grandparents?
"ma che'rie~" - Gackt.

It's very old sounding, and soothing.. And I like the piano..
- shrug. - I guess..
All my grandparents are in heaven anyways (Or at least, I think they are?) so..

12. How is your life going?
"Eternal Silence" - Phantasmagoria.

Okay. So I'm reading the translations, and I see this:

"To be living…let me hear the pulsing of running blood"

That made me rofl. It goes from all happy sounding, to that. o_o;

Oh. Wow. There's actually a part that sounds like my life right now?

"Passing through my memories, I can see you like on that day we two met by chance"

Yeah. Lately, I've been thinking about that. It's really weird..

"Way too cold and too quiet, there is no chance that the gates of time will open; the same goes for your eyes"

Yes. It's really hard to crack you, you know that? I constantly wonder what you're thinking, but you won't even give me the slightest hint.. It's like a neverending mystery..
And you do have to admit, you are kinda cold and quiet sometimes. ._.

13. What song will they play at your funeral?
"Kounetsu Blood" - Kotani Kinya.

Oh yes. A Gravitation song for the Gravitation fangirl. Wtf?
Too happy for a funeral, in my opinion.

14. How does the world see you?
"Cloud 9" - Maaya Sakamoto.

I guess I kind of just follow in people's footsteps... which is true for the most part.

15. Will you have a happy life?
"Knife Blood Nightmare Master" - Aiden.

Apparently not.

16. What do your friends really think of you?
"The Older I Get" - Skillet.

Apparently, I tend to push my friends away sometimes from my walls and the fights I get into once and a while..

17. Do people secretly lust after you?
"Feel Good Inc." - Gorillaz.

........

18. How can I make mys... ]]> ~AruTamashi http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/15654054/ http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/15654054/ Sat, 24 Nov 2007 18:10:08 PST But still, why does it hurt so badly?

If you haven't guessed, the wonderful 28 hours that I was granted with Saki has now ended..

I never thought it would be this hard..
I feel like I'm loosing her for the first time, again.

Like how I felt when she told me she had decided to leave and live in Ohio.. For good..

I feel like that, knowing it was all going to happen.
It's not like I could've kept her any longer..

So anyways..
ON A LIGHTER NOTE..

A recap of everything that went on (like anyone cares):

At about 3:30 PM yesterday, everyone startesd getting here. First was Emma, then Neko, then Tsuki.
Due to previous complications, Saki was having trouble getting here, since her mom was sleeping around 3.

So we're all basically standing at the door watching AFV when we hear a grumbling noise. Like I figured, it was Saki.

As soon as she opened the door, I tackled her. This was folled by everyone else, as we left the door wide open for the nice, cold air to get in. But who cares.

Everyone put their stuff down and then Saki decided she wanted to go for a walk around the neighborhood.
And everyone knows when you're in our neighborhood, you're bound to see weird stuff, especially when a random group of teenagers are walking in the middle of the road with strange weapons..
[Keyblade, flag, Urahara cane, stuff like that.]

We took a bunch of random pictures, which I'll probably upload on somewhere later..

Then we headed home and played some Guitar Hero, played a little bit of Soul Caliber, and watched some Youtube stuff while we ate some AMAZING Hungry Howies Pizza and Howie Bread. It was amazing.

Then Saki wanted to go outside and look at the moon, so I carted my CDs and CD player outside to dance.

We had a mini rave in my driveway.
You know that's amazing. =]

Then, Emma and Saki get a stupid idea to climb to the top of the hill behind my house (there's a factory warehouse up there, and so we do it all the time) and roll down it in the dark.
Preeeeeeeeetty stupid idea, but they went through with it anyways..
Emma rolled down, lost her cell phone, and stopped in a giant pile of random weeds and misc brush. It was funny.
Then Saki rolled down, lost her ring, and fell into a thorn bush.
It was pretty funny.
Emma rolled down again so Saki could see, and almost fell into the same thorn bush.

It was pretty amazing.

And then we randomly roleplayed Loveless outside in the driveway.
We turned on Barbie Girl and Soubi strutted his stuff, lawl.
And whipped Ritsuka with his pink, fluffy scarf. =]

Then we went back inside since it was so cold and played some more Guitar Hero and watched random stuff.

And after that, we played spin the bottle truth or dare.
I dared Neko to stick sour skittles in her nose.. Her reaction was amazing.
Then we dared Emma to drink a bunch of random stuff mixed together and she threw up.
XD
YEAAAAAAAAAH.

Then we played Hide and Seek.. in the dark.
Which was.. well.. interesting. XD

Then we watched some TV and stuff while laying down on the floor..
Neko kept falling asleep.. and we kept waking her up.
Which made her pissed, but we didn't care.

Then I had Tai call me, and we talked for a little bit while everyone fought over the computer and watched TV.

Then Neko was still sleeping, so we all threw random shit around the room on top of her..
And she continued to sleep..

Then when I was randomly flipping through the channels at like, 2AM, we found this movie where Barbies were having sex on Comedy Central.
..Disturbing, yet HILARIOUS.

Finally, Neko woke up, and so we all hung out and watched some TV for a little bit.

Around 3:00ish, Neko and Emma decided that they were tired of trying to lay on the floor and went up to my room to sleep.
I gave them extra pillows and blankets, put some Gackt on, and tucked them in. =]

Around 3:30ish, Tsuki, Saki, and I finally called it a night.

Then, at 9, Tsuki's mom called, telling her to wake up and take a shower so she could go shopping with her Grandma Sue.
So we all woke up.
Funny thing was, Neko and Emma were still sleeping.
So then we decided to go up there at like, 9:30 and jump on the bed, turn the lights on, open the curtains, and wake them up.
XDDDD

So then we all basically came downstairs and watched some TV, played some DDR, watched random internet videos, farted around on the internet.. and all that wonderful stuff.

Tsuki had to leave around.. 11ish, I believe... ]]> ~AruTamashi http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/15160389/ http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/15160389/ Sun, 21 Oct 2007 15:11:01 PDT

]]> ~AruTamashi http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/15059728/ http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/15059728/ Sun, 14 Oct 2007 14:02:34 PDT Everytime I get on here my number keeps going up, and amazingly I don't want it to because..
I REALLY don't have enough time for another kiriban.

But ya know, I'm going to do one anyways!
But there'll probably be a few different changes, since most of the people who get my kiribans are my closer friends (but that doesn't mean anyone else can't get them).

Here's the thing:

I'll still take requests, but there's more to worry about now! (Yay?)

I'll draw, write (even though I suck ass at it), or maybe even make something for you (but that requires approvement, I doubt you'll get me to do anything too extensive).

But the thing to worry about now is..

If you ask me to draw, you can:
♥ Have me draw you a regular piece of copy paper (like usual), which I'll scan and upload on here...
♥ Draw a special ATC (Artist Trading Card ; see my Deidara ATC for an example, it's really small and is roughly the size of a Pokemon/Baseball/YGO card) that I'll MAIL to you, maybe even with a letter..
♥ Or draw both, and either have me send your full sized drawing to you, or the ATC.

If that makes any sense.. Eheh.
Ask me about it if you have any questions.

So YEAH.
That's the kiriban deal.
New number is 4000.
So..

CATCH IT!™
You filthy sons of bitches. (ROFL. It's from a book, and I found it funny...)

In other news..

School's been a bit hectic these last few weeks...
Last week was midterm week, as well as homecoming week.
So every day we had some theme thing to dress up as..
Monday - Twin Day : I didn't do this. Rofl.
Tuesday - Class Color Day : Sophmores had to wear blue, rofl.
Wednesday - Character Day : I cosplayed as Urahara to school. Kick ass, I know. >D
Thursday - Tacky Day : We were all mismatched and funny looking at the tailgate party. Omg. That was great.
Friday - Trojan Spirit Day : Kinda did this.. I wore my Back In Black band shirt. Rofl.

Yeah so we had midterms all week, and I think I did pretty good, except for my government midterm, but that's another story.
Haha.

And my body hurts all over from how much band stuff we've had to do this week alone.

The usual practice on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday.. but then instead of just a football game on Friday, we had to march like 2 miles (which isn't bad, but it is when your shoe keeps falling off when you're marching) in a parade, at attention with our flags (which made my arms feel like they were going to fall off after about 20 minutes) and do the Fight song routine and cadance the whole way to the stadium..
And then when we got to the stadium, we had to hurry and get our purses and stuff, put them in the stands (while avoiding the crowd of a bunch of 8th graders, it was 8th grade night, rofl) and get back on the field for pregame and do all that.
But then us flags got to rest until halftime, when we had to do the homecoming formation for the homecoming court, where we had to do this curtsey bow thingie whenever someone passed us to show respect.. It was fun, but my legs started to get kinda numb (it was like, 20 minutes long, standing in the same spot at attention, rofl). And then we got 3rd quarter off while all the band kids had to play (since they got halftime off) and I ate some nachos while feeding some to Tsuki and Adam's little sister.
Then after the game, we had to perform our halftime, which went better than the East/West game, cuz our 4th song actually looked pretty good, except for the last bit.

But yeah. It was fun.. But I really hurt after the end of the night.

Then yesterday I had to get up early and get my ass over to the school to get ready for the competition over at Tusculum college in Greeneville.. Which I think went pretty well. I think it was my best performance yet.

And I got to meet Adam's girlfriend, Paige. She's pretty nice. I approve. - nodnod. - But I do have to say, sometimes I think she's got him a bit whipped. x.x;;;

And this week, I've also got to drive a lot more.
I got to drive for 45 minutes on Thursday. It was supercool.
I think I'm gonna get to drive later today, too.

But yeah.
This week's been pretty hectic.

As of last night (or really, this morning)..
Me and Travis's relationship is KAPUT.

Yes, he broke up with me, after almost 4 months.
Wow, I didn't think it'd last this long..
Or really.. I didn't think it'd be this short..

I don't even know anymore..

I just feel like I need to write this journal to calm down about it and stuff...

Ugh..

But yeah..

We went to the Cherokee game, and it was cool and all..
And so on the bus back and stuff me and Travis were doing what we usually do (cuddle, you dumbutts), and so everything seemed fine..

But when I called him later after my shower, he told me that he had "things" on his mind..
And I asked him what they were..
And he told me that "you probably wouldn't want to know"
And so I was like "let me guess.. you wanna break up with me..?"
And he's like "..I told you you didn't want to know.."

His reason: "I'm just not interested in you anymore.."

Interested?!
So dating means that you're "interested"?!
What the fuck?
I mean, really.

Ugh.
I guess I shouldn't say anything, because I really don't know what dating means anyways..

So yeah..
After I hung up, I called Adam (right before he was going to bed) and I just.. broke down..

BAD.

Like seriously.
You have no idea.

So for about an hour he tried to reassure me and cheer me up.. while I cried.

And so I let him go so he could go to bed...
And I turned up Flyleaf and just layed there crying..
For another half an hour, I think..

And eventually, I just passed out..

Ugh.
It seriously sucks..

Like I told Adam..
I feel like I don't have anyone to go to anymore.
That I'm all alone.
That I'm rejected.
No one wants me.
No one ever really wanted me..

It just really sucks.

I feel empty for some reason..

I'm not sure if this is technically "heartbreak"..
Or if I was really in "love".

Hell.
I don't know what either of those terms mean..

Nor do I think I ever will..

Gyahhh.
I feel so emo and ugh.
Like I just want to rip someone apart..
Or like I'm being ripped apart or something like that..

And now I just wanna cry again.
But I can't..
Because my parents'll see me..
And then I'll get bitched at for crying..

Ugh.
Major suckage.

I don't know what to do anymore..

-----------------------------------------------

1. I'm an A T T E N T I O N W H O R E if you didn't know.. Most of the things I do, I do because I want attention. >>;

2. I bite my fingernails.. A LOT. I do it when I'm nervous and stuff... It's a really bad habit too.. x.x

3. I secretly think that I'm bipolar, even though people tell me I'm not. I get depressed easily, go to happy, go to emo.. It just always seems like my emotions are spinning and constantly changing.

4. I think that one of my biggest fears is now insects, due to what happened on the first day of marching band at school.. (Ask me the story, if you want to know about it.. XD; )

5. When I'm with my boyfriend, I can't stand just standing there. I want his arms around me, or him holding my hand or something.. I don't know why.. It kinda makes me more relaxed and stuff. o.o

6. I love driving. It's my new found obsession. - nodnod. -

7. I hate silence, it freaks me out. I have to be hearing something, or talking, or listening to music. I think silence is really awkward, even if it isn't an awkward silence.. It's annoying. ><;

8. I lovelovelove to talk on the phone before bed. I like getting in bed and getting comfortable and listening to someone talk (I don't even care if they're rambling).. It makes me sleepy and helps me fall asleep faster. o.o

I tag...

1) I bite my nails when I'm nervous. Like, really bad. I've been known to tear the skin off my fingers too...

2) I secretly wanted to be a model for a few years.. No joke.

3) After the first day of school, during band, I believe my biggest fear is now INSECTS. If you need the story, just ask me and I'll be glad to tell you.

4) I now have an obsession with driving. I find it fun and exciting.. Even if it IS going around my subdivision at 20 miles an hour...

5) I have a tendency to break down because of the smallest things. This is due to the huge amount of shit I bottle in, and I usually end up exploding the most during band. ..Just.. Don't ask why. ><

6) I'm an A T T E N T I O N W H O R E ! Just so you know.

7) I'm a huge perfectionist. If something isn't perfect, I'll be more than willing to spend FOREVER trying to fix it. And if I have problems fixing things (for example: color guard) I freak out and start crying and throwing things, and yelling at people... x.x

8) I hate having my picture taken with other people's cameras, but if you take a picture from mine, I'll be more than happy too. All in all, I have hardly no self esteem and if I don't have a delete button for the picture, I freak out. XD;


I officially tag ANYONE who reads this.
That means you, you, and yes you.

That's bad, isn't it?

So uhm, new kiriban at 3666!

So..

CATCH IT!(insert trademark here)

Rofl.. I'm too lazy..

But yeah.

Been kinda busy, and have been wanting to draw..

Anyone have any ideas they feel like dropping.

It'd help much..

Lately, I'll only draw for other people..
Not my own enjoyment..
I don't know why.........

- sigh. - But if someone wants something, it gives me a reason for draw.

And I really wanna draw.

So drop me some ideas, and I might decide to draw some.

Please...? x.o

4) Having an emotional breakdown for no reason

It like, sucked, but I got over it.

Neko and I counted everything up and found out that we march usually 11 hours a day and get 6 hours of sleep.

And if you didn't know, I was up there for a whole week.

So, I'm gonna start my mass upload of new shit.

=]

Look forward to quite a few carnival pictures, lake pictures, lighthouses, water stuff, and more drawings!

And maybe even a blog to recap everything once I get to writing that out.

So yeah.

I didn't die, I just went on a long vacation.

Oh, and if you didn't know about this either..

I'll be on less (I think) for the next two weeks.
I have Freshman week this upcoming week and Full Band Week the week following. So I definately won't be online from like, 8:30 AM to about 12:30 PM.

The week after that though, I won't be on all week, I'll be over at ETSU for another funfilled week of overnight band camp.

Yay?

So yeah.

Look for some new stuff! <3

1. Flag practice.

It's been going well, I think I've gotten worse since tryouts though. Uhm..
I learned that I could kill myself doing a helicopter toss the right way.. (I think I need to invest in a helmet..)
And I can't do toasters for my life..
But they're so fun and addicting. o_o;
But uh.. yeah.


2. Naruto Movie

Well, I couldn't go to that with Saki, we found out the night before it was sold out..
So I like, ended up spending the night at Neko's dad's house, since we had a COY meeting the next day..
We went out downtown and went to this really nice resturant called "Cafe Mozart". It sold German food.. so I just ordered bratworst cuz I actually knew what it was.. and OMG IT WAS SO GOOD. ..And so was the desert.. It had strawberries, ice cream, and rasberry sauce over it all, warmed up and omg.. it was to die for. It was really pretty looking too.
Uhm.. so yeah..
And then at the COY meeting, I got elected as Assistant Secretary, so I'm an official member and I'm Neko's helper.. Woohoo?
I guess it'll look good on my resume.. or my application for college, if I go. ._.


In other completely worthless news that's happened in the last week....

3. Anime

I've completed a few different animes in the last few weeks. I finished Ouran High School Host Club.. Boy was that a good anime. o.o I really liked it. And I finished the Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi, that was good too. I finished Loveless before school ended, so yeah.. Right now I plan on finishing the first season of Higurashi no naku koro ni.. Since Kazu's kinda making me. XD


4. Malleh Date.. again.

Travis and I went to the mall on a date again. XD We went to go see the movie "Surf's Up". It was really funny.. especially since I mean.. they WERE surfing penguins..
And I got to play DDR afterwards, but it was kinda weird, cuz our "emo" group wasn't there. I'm used to it being so packed no one can get inside or that you have to wait at least an hour for a game, but no.. It was mostly empty for the most part, and the DDR machine hardly being used..
I got to see Saki too, and how she dyed her hair black. She could totally pull off an Orochimaru cosplay, if she could get one. XD


5. Amanda's 18th B-Day Partah

I went to my friend's birthday party last night, omg it was so funny. XD We played DDR, listened to music, watched stupid videos on the internet, ate a shitload of food, played games.. and ran around with balloons and glowsticks. XD It was awesome!
And it was really funny cuz at the end we were all like "OMG EVERYONE GET TOGETHER, IT'S MYSPACE WHORE TIME!" XD Omg.. It was great. Especially since I got to see a lot of my friends that graduated this year. - dies. - So I won't get to see them that much anymore.. - whine. -
But yeah, I had a good time. ^^


6. Drawing

Last night I was drawing that Orochimaru and Kimimaro picture for Saki catching my kiriban, and like.. when I was looking through my colored pencil box, I found one of those bugs with the pinchers on their head crawling around.
OMG I FREAKED OUT OMG
I dropped everything on the floor, my webcam fell to the ground (it was on my lap, so that Saki could watch me draw cuz we were bored), and like, I started beating it with a shoe.
Now, if you didn't know I DO NOT LIKE BUGS OMG THEY SCARE THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF ME OMG. So yeah.
And like, it kept crawling under the pencils and wouldn't die, so I just closed my box, latched it, and shook it around.
I killed it.. XD
Man, am I creative or what? XDDDD


SO yeah.. I probably forgot other stuff that's happened, but that's okay cuz I think I've wrote plenty.

I plan on doing another kiriban soon, since I've got so much free time.

Oh, and by the way, I'm leaving for Michigan in 2 weeks with Tsuki, so that's bound to be fun.
I'll need stuff to do, since my lazy ass is going to be stuck at a campground for the most part. XD
So yeaaaaaaaaaah.

I'll talk to j00 guys latar~
Look for upcoming notices on kiriban numbers and shit.
(Oh, and Kazu, I'm still trying to get motivated to finish your CG. It's sitting in my documents. XD)

Ja ne~
[x] Aru [x] (Stole the precious thing. ~AruTamashi http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/13207261/ http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/13207261/ Sun, 03 Jun 2007 20:11:18 PDT That, and I need to find something that doensn't deal with too much internet surfing.. as I'm downloading a pretty new anime with lots of yaoi in it. ^____^


Well, first offs, I've finally decided that I'ma do another kiriban, and the number this time'll be 3333. Cuz I love doing things with like.. all the same number. I know, I'm weird.
Usual stuff applies, as always.
Whoever gets it, gets what they want, as long as I agree to it. XD
Hopefully this time SOMEONE will get it.. AND TELL ME.
Unlike the last like, 2.

So yeah,
3333! Catch it! Or else I'll kick your fuckin' ass.
=]

Uhm.... In other news..

I got my first kiss on Tuesday..
I went to my boyfriend's house for dinner.
He fixed Mahi Mahi (it means dolphin in Hawaii, but it's not dolphin meat, it's from the dolphin FISH, which I had NO CLUE even existed.. but it was good.. and I'm not even a fish eater.) with macadamia nuts and bread crumbs on top.. white rice, and salad.. and made koolaid. We were supposed to have virgin strawberry daquiries... but he didn't have the stuff to make 'em.
Uh.. We talked a lot during dinner, and sat on the pretty balcony of his house, overlooking a pool and some woods. And afterwards, we went to the little park in his subdivision. It's a really cute park.. It's got a pool (with a stereo system, I might add), a beach volleyball part, a tennis court with basketball hoops, and then a small man-made lake.. (I'd consider it a pond) with a track around it. We walked, hand and hand along the track (which is actually a 1/3 of a mile long, so that's how big the lake is, if you were wondering). We saw some ducks and their little ducklings.. and I got a picture of it.. (which I also put on here.. so you can go look at it.)
After we got done walking, we went back to his house, where he made me some strawberry shortcake for dessert. <3
We sat downstairs in his theatre (quite litterally.. reclining leather seats, with a projection screen TV) and watched Family guy while we ate it.
He pecked me the first time on the forehead.. which I thought was really cute..
Then when his dad went to take me home, we got in the car and I kissed him on the cheek.
When I got home, Travis hugged me and we exchanged our goodbyes, and I got a kiss on the cheek.
Hehe. I feel so spoiled. o.o;

Uh.. Yeah.
Sorry for all the mooshy spill. XD;
- cleans up the leftovers. -
Uhhh...

My parents and I went to Gatlinburg and stuff yesterday...
We went to Cades Cove (the wilderness part of the Smokey Mountains) and drove around the loop so I could take some pictures of the old rustic cabins and stuff for this photo contest I wanna enter.
It was nice just to hear the birds and stuff in the background, and to see all the deer..
And we found a bear too, and it was so funny cuz everyone stopped their cars (it's a one laned road that you can only go 20 mph on, so it's really slow), and got out with their binoculars and cameras.. Omg. It was hilarious.
But it kinda all started sucking when it started to rain.
It started pouring, but I kept the van door open still, to take pictures, and we found some deer REALLY close to the road.. I got some pictures of 'em. They're really pretty...
And after it all, we went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse in Sevierville.. mmm.. I love me some chicken fingers.
I ate so much I woke up in the night last night sick, just so you know. XD

Uhm.. other than that...

I start flag court practice on Wednesday, yay..
And I might go see the Naruto movie with Saki that night.
Or with Travis, if his parents agree to take us, rofl.
On Thursday, I have to go to a meeting with Neko for the committee thing.. Grr. The things I do to support my friends and end up getting sucked into everything that they do. XD;

And Tsuki's finally gonna come back the 26th, so I'm really happy about that.
Even though it's like, 4 days before we leave for MI. XD
But she's coming with us, so I get to be close to her for a whoooooole week. ^___^ <3

Uh.. Yeah.
I think I've come up with enough..

Remember my new kiriban:

3333! Catch it!™

I'm on this food diet thing.. that my dad tried back a few years ago, combined with my own little "DDR Diet".

I've been playing DDR on Heavy/Standard 2 times a week, for about 30 minutes.

SO yeah.

I've already lost 5 pounds in about 2 weeks.
Just thought I'd let you guys know..
Not that you care. XD

I'm just supper happy.
AND MY METAL DDR PAD WORKS AGAIN! DD
Uh, yeah.

I'm gonna start playing it for an hour and see what it does.

Catcha later.

Because Neko's mom fcking rocks and knows I'm bored as fuck.



I went to the Cherokee Dam with Neko on Thursday, so yeah.. I uploaded a bunch of pictures from it.
I also went over to her house for a while, I'm really wanting to like, take a picture of her old antique piano next time I come.
OH, and I went to a "OMG LET'S TELL PEOPLE SHIT ABOUT TEEN PREGNANCY" project thing.
I swear to fucking god that the Hamblen County Health Department is like, using everyone to do that.

I'm amazed how many pageviews I'm getting now-a-days.. o-o

You know what that means..

Kiriban time!
But not just any kiriban..

(I changed the name from candy. Now it's An Cafe'age.)

And just for any of you that forgot what the difference is between a regular kiriban and special ones.. Here ya go:

1. The usual: any kind of drawing of your choice (as long as I can most likely draw it during school and not get in serious trouble content-wise)
2. Write a fanfic of maybe like.. 3 chapters? (I suck at writing though XD)
3. Tell me to CG something. This can include your own drawings, my old drawings, or anything you can find.. even a manga picture!
4. A CG! Yes, not just a CG, but the drawing and CG, made completely for your enjoyment! (Only those on friendslist/friends can get one. )

So yeah..

Have pitty on me... I've got some plans coming up.

1. MTAC
2. Cosplay
3. Work on my keyblade
4. Haircuts/dying

Why can't my parents just go to bed so I can do what the fuck I want to down here?
Not in the best of moods, if you can't tell.

I wanna slam my head into a wall until it bleeds.
Bleeds, and just seeps down my cheek.
Just so I can watch it.
And laugh at how much of a faliure I am.
The failiure I always will be.

What the hell is up with me getting all happy, and then ending up finding something that ruins my mood, be it words, people, etc.?
I mean, it's annoying as hell.
And I don't get "happy" that often.
Not like anyone reads these, anyways.
No one would know what I'm talking about anyways, seeing as maybe 3 people that I know in a whole know maybe a fraction of the "real" me.
I'm not that easy to get through.

God damnit.
I just feel like I'm rotting to death.

Thank God my parents don't read my blogs or anything.. They would never suspect such a thing out of me. Out of an almost straight A student.
Haha. You're so fucking wrong you don't even know it.

Hell, I doubt that even THEY know the real me.
If they ever did.
They say they know what I'm going through, but my mom has no fucking idea. My dad might have a bit of it, but I'm pretty sure it's not near the same thing that I go through.

Meh. Not like they'd care to ask me about my life anyways.
We just stay in our own little niches in the house.
I stay downstairs or in my room, they stay in their room or in the living room.
Don't mingle, don't talk, don't really do anything.

Oh goodie. Mom's finally going to bed, even though she has to work tomorrow morning at 6 AM.
Thank God she's gone.
And my dad will just stay in his garage all day.
Until Tsuki comes over.
And then maybe I'll go run around the neighborhood.

Ugh. I just really feel like taking a walk outside and going off to cry.
I just wanna scream and hurt something so badly.
Like, almost like a beast inside, that won't hurt anything.
And I just can't get that feeling to go away.

Shows you how much of a typical "emo kid" I am, huh?
Get the fuck over it.

..
I guess I should be telling myself that, ne?

[x] Pictures from Tsuki's house
[x] 2700 kiriban picture.

So yeah.

We started reading "To Kill a Mockingbird" in English. -nodnod.- It's actually not that bad of a book, actually. Even though I'm only on Chapter 3.. But still.
We have a project we're going to be working on while we read the book; a mini "life lessons" book. I've gotta go to Wal Mart to get the fabric and paint and stuff tomorrow for it. Yay?

Tomorrow's gonna be funfun.

Agenda:
[x] Eyedoctors appointment. (Oh god no. ><
[x] Mall with friends?
[x] DDR?
[x] Seeing Saki?
[x] Spending the night at Tsuki's?
[x] Chruch on Sunday (I think..)

So yeaaaaaaaaaaaah. I need to figure out what I'm wearing to play DDR in. Yes, I'm that obsessed. xD

Our Algebra II midterm was today. It was cake. Goooood cake. =3
It had like, 3 questions on there that were
"ORDER THESE NUMBERS FROM LEAST TO GREATEST"
And ya know what the funny part is?
1. We're in Algebra II.
2. We're ADVANCED. (It's supposed to be a college level course.)
3. It was multiple choice.

Yeaaaaah. Only one question I didn't get because I just so forgot how to do Cramer's Rule and randomly guessed. ;;

Had a Geography OPEN NOTE test over Europe. It was cake too. <3

I didn't do so hot on our Romeo and Juliet final in English though.. I missed 27 out of 100. Which in my opinion, is pretty darn good for someone who was confused and didn't study.
But we got to revise some of it for more points (aka: the quotes section, which is what I bombed for the most part, I missed 9.) So yeah. <3

Oh! And my painting for that art show didn't make it to the competition. ^________^ It makes me so happy!
Isn't that weird?
I just wish Mrs. Cruetzinger would take it out of the library, so I could go burn it. <3
Hehehe..?

I'm downloading RO right now, and it's at 95%.
Watch my life get fucked up like everyone elses has?
I'ma play with Strawberry. Kenji joined the server too.
Hehe?
I still need to make my character and stuff too.
It's almost finished so yeah.

Before I go....

New Kiribanrly?

This time let's make it 2828. Just cuz I like double numbers.
Since I kinda decided to make one too late for a 1800 kiriban.
Hehe. You know what you get when you win, so I ain't gonna explain that.

So, gonna go. <3

Sayonara minna!

KENJI WAS HERE!!!

I'm probably gonna download RO this weekend so I can go and play it with Adam. - shrug. -
He's not so happy about that, because he's all joking with me that I suck and I'll never be able to understand it.
Which, I don't wanna admit, but I am pretty stupid at MMORPG things.. Like Runescape. Don't wanna go through that again.
Uh, but yeah.

----

Kazu won my 2700 kiriban, so I need to draw his thingie.
I'm workin on it.. Kindanotrlydon'thavetimeatthemoment.
x.x

----

Mah art show project looks like a complete and utter piece of shit which should NOT be entered in a high school level competition. When I get it back, I'm going to burn it and do a ritual..
I hate it so much it made me wanna stop drawing for a while.
Seriously. o_o;

----

Algebra II's getting a bit easier, and I'm actually understanding it. That, and I've kinda been helping the kids who are in Geometry now, so.. I guess that's a good thing?
My graphing calcie helps me a lot. It's my best friend. <3
It helps Aru check problems and get them right, even though her work's wrong and get partial credit. Hehe?

----

An Cafe obsesson rly.
It's getting sad.
Just thought I'd let you know?

----

MTAC plans ain't going so well.. Parents and I got into a fight about cosplay, and right now, I think I'm "grounded" from it, due to the fact that my mother thinks I FORCE her to do it.
Lol no.
I'm sorry, I asked your opinion and you said you would help us.
And then you go and fucking moan to your husband about how your daughter won't help you?
Well, I'm sorry that I don't know fucking everything there is to sewing, I can't read a fucking pattern, and I don't sew for 12 hours a day in a fucking factory.
If you want help, just fucking ask. I'll be there when you need me.
I always was.
But instead, you just go and moan to him, moan to him about how your daughter's putting too much stress on you and not helping you do a fucking thing because you don't ask her.
And then he yells for an hour about how everything's going to change and about how you've put your mom in so much pain and stress.
And how you think of no one other than yourself.
I'M SORRY. I DON'T THINK I UNDERSTOOD YOU.
I thought about it as much as I could. I thought of EVERYONE, except the dog. I'm sorry for forgetting the DOG, and not telling you about it?
And about how you say that I never ask, I plan and expect it to be done.
I'M SORRY.
I ask, you never reply. What am I supposed to do? Wait for eternity for the fucking answer?
I DON'T FUCKING THINK SO.
We have 45 days people.
45 days until I was going to be happy again.
HAPPY.
Something no one ever usually sees.
All the happiness is a mask.. A mask that's never seen though.
The mask that hides everyone from the real me.
The real me that's never been met.
Ever since I moved.
Ever since my life has ran to hell.
And no, it HASN'T come back.
And it probably never will.

----

And in other completely worthless shit..

I've got a lot of shit on my mind lately, but I can't tell what. Stuff like people I used to know randomly showing up and remember me, and for some reason, I don't remember them. Or I start hearing voices.. Or I get these really weird dreams..
Don't even get me started. >>;
It's really creeping me out.. and I was never good with dealing with it. I mean.. Even though some people don't believe in ghosts and spirits in shit, I do, cuz I see 'em, and they get on my nerves quite a bit. Like now. Especially when I'm in bed.
Yeah, I know I sound like I'm mental, but to my luck, I probably am and should go see a shrink about it.
But ya know what?
My parents don't care, they never will care, unless I'm on my death bed. Isn't it great?

Anger's been a huge issue too. As much as my internet friends don't know it, I've been super emotional these past few weeks.
One minute I'm acting like I'm on a sugarhigh, the next I'm depressed and I almost jump out the window at school.
It's a wonderful feeling, really.
It just gets annoying after a few weeks. x.x
And, as much as Adam will never know, I don't ease up to people so easily.
And no, I don't sit with you on the bus everyday to make you like me more.
And you'll just.. never know.
Even if I were to say it to your face..
You wouldn't get it.
Just like everyone else.
It just fucking pisses me off, sorry... ]]> ~AruTamashi http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/11854363/ http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/11854363/ Sat, 17 Feb 2007 11:49:48 PST GUESS WHAT BITCHES.

--------

// 1. School. //

I've been bombarded with tons of homework now-a-days. Man, they weren't kidding when they said they would get harder after we came back from Christmas break, were they? x.X

Since I've been moved to ADVANCED Algebra II, life uberly sucks homwork wise. We have usually about 30 or so problems (on a good day), but some of them take FOREVER because we have to do, in my opinion, gay, stupid stuff we don't need when we already know the
answer. Especially like graphing.
But Algebra II seems a hell of a lot like Algebra I, only with a few twists. It's kinda hard for us to get used to the twists, because we weren't introduced to them in 8th grade when we took Algebra, unlike the other kids who have taken it this year. Think of it as a disadvantage. A biiiiig disadvantage.
Oh well, I'll just have to get used to it, ne?

I've also got a lot more serious with my art in art class, due to having more freedom than most everyone in my class.
Ya know why? Because I act mature in that class.
If you don't already know, our art teacher, Mrs. Crutizinger (her name's hard to spell, and I probably misspelled it), or Mrs. Cruetz for short. She's been getting way freaked out about how our class acts. They have no discipline. There's only about 10 people who are
in my class that actually are in art for a REASON. Sad, ne?
Tsuki and I have begun to think that anyone who couldn't figure out what elective they're going to take this year, automatically got placed in art, in our class. It really puts a damper on the few of us that do what we're supposed to in there. So much, that Mrs. Cruetz got to the point she almost cried during class, even though she
had told them to shut up or she would give them detentions.
But they won't listen. They really don't care, to tell the truth.
So, for our latest assignment we were assigned a random piece of art to do, that we had no choice in. That is, everyone except Tsuki, Marissa, Ryan, a few other people, and me -- we got to pick our own. ^^
Because it couldn't be contemporary art (stuff that's been created in this period of time), I couldn't draw anime. That wasn't so bad.
What I ended up choosing was a really neat piece of old, traditional, Japanese wood painting of waves in front of Mt. Fuji.
Even though everyone thought I was stupid for deciding to do it at home (which was a smart thing, because most of us who were serious about it did it at home because we can't work in there), I painted it on wood, at home. It turned out really nice. I'll have to take a picture and put it on DA sometime.

Back on track.. Uhm..
All my other classes are going well, and I'm staying the same as last time. I just need to buckle down a bit more in Biology. Hehe.

Oh, and we got grade cards a couple of weeks ago, and guess what.
I GOT A 91 IN GEOMETRY~~ - sings. -
So yeah, I was waaaaaaaay happy.

-------

// 2. Friends. //

I've been going out more with friends lately too, which is why when I'm usually on the internet, I'm not.
I got to Tsuki's every weekend just about, and we hang out. I think we're getting close enough to be considered "best-friends", since we hang out and share so much with each other now. It's really nice.
Tsuki and I also go to the mall every other week, to play DDR with our "emo group". We all have a really great time, and are getting better, especially Tsuki.

Congrats to her for playing Daikenkai on Standard and almost not failing. <3 ^^~
I'm proud.

I've been playing more and more heavy, and trying to learn new songs on challenge. I really need to get more active, because I can tell I haven't been in a while -- it's getting a bit harder to keep playing heavy/challenge for more than 3 rounds in a row.
And I found a new song that I really love, thanks to Cheza and Usagi.
It's called Abyss, and it pwns your ass.

-------

// 3. Relationships? //

Adam and I seem to be getting closer to each other. Closer than before.
We go places more often, like the mall and to the skating rink, and we hang out a lot more now.
It kinda seems like since after that mall incident (see the journal from earlier that I posted called "Strawberry on Saturday =3" for info about that) that he's been getting softer. He rarely yells at me anymore, whi... ]]> ~AruTamashi http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/11615281/ http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/11615281/ Mon, 29 Jan 2007 18:14:50 PST

Lots. of. homework. 'Nuff said.
My ass has permanantly been stuffed with so much fucking homework.. It's not even funny.

Not to mention, I'm starting to kinda get serious with school. Sorta.

I've also been hanging with friends more often..

I go to Tsuki's almost every weekend now, and run off to the mall with Adam and stuff.
Hehe.

Not to mention see Saki every month or two. <3

I've also been tutoring Tsuki (sortakindanotrly) and helping her with homework, as well as being her mini-psychatrist. lol.

-------

Other news:

Kenji won my 5k kiri. I'm currently working on her piccie. (I forgot what it was, but I AM working on it.)

I'll hopefully get on soon and upload a picture I drew for Adam from .hack//ROOTS. ._.;

Uhm, I'll take requests, but I ain't promising everything.
All art I get done is usually completed in Hoppy's class or art when I have free time (that is, when I'm not helping people with math and working on my constant homework load).

So yeah.
Sorry for neglecting you all. ;-;
Forgive me..
Please?

Wewt for first REAL journal of 2007!
Random, I know.

New Years was the same as always. Talked on the phone with Kenjeh and Strawberry and watched Panic and AFI's performances on TV.. Then got on the internet and talked to both of them on MSN. - shrug. -
When the ball dropped, I screamed "I LOVE YOU GUYS" on the phone.. and Kenjeh returned it. A minute or so later (I guess whenever Strawberry remember what we had just said XD) he said "I love you in the least way possible"... I wished I had recorded that.
I could have given him living hell for that. I'm so mean. o_0;

Uhm.. School started back on Wednesday, and I got moved from advanced geometry to advanced Algebra II. Funfun. I think I like it better already, cuz it seems easier. We're currently doing things like solving equations, which is a nice break from having to think during math. Now we don't.
Since the freshmen have been acting like a bunch of dumbasses, our lunches got changed back to the old way that West had been doing it before FX started -- going one part of the school at a time. Luckily, we got 1st lunch, so we get all the fresh food. I think we're pretty much the only freshmen class at that lunch.. It's kinda awkward. I can't each lunch with Tsukkeh, Neko, or Strawberry anymore. - sigh. - But now, I sit with Ashley, Usagi and Cheza. It's awesome. <3+

Yesterday was formal. And guess what.
I didn't go.
Instead, I hung out at the mall.
And guess who came, thinking I would be there.
Strawberry! ^____^

He ran towards the arcade with his headphones in his ears while listening to his music on his cell phone when he saw me and screamed "ARUUUUUU". It was really funny. I swear, if we would have been any happier, we would have hugged.
He stayed with me and watched my friends and I play DDR. I played with this new girl (I never found out her name, but she liked InuYasha and Naruto.. Damn myself for wearing my InuYasha shirt to the arcade..) and for some reason, the DDR machine was being really retarded. Why?
It wouldn't play Versus!
We couldn't figure out why, and found that there were some extra credits in there for some reason.. So, we just played singles until it finally gave us the chance to play versus. Seeing as we got a free game and I wanted to see Strawberry play DDR, the other girl and I played the first and third rounds, and Strawberry and I got the 2nd.
It was hilarious when Strawberry got up to play with me. He picked for us to do Love ♥ Shine, and he played on light, I played on Standard and x1.5. (Next time I play that damn song, I'm definately trying Heavy x1.5. >_>; ) It was funny, cuz as much as he told me at school how he could play songs on light mode and pass with good grades, he ended up failing at the arcade. Tsuki said that he kept putting his feet in the middle, which is probably why he seemed to have a problem keeping up.

After that, I pretty much ditched Tsuki and Jennifer (which was the reason why I went to the mall in the first place) and had some good, happy, quality time with Strawberry. First thing we did was go to EB, where he found the Eureka 7 game he was gonna buy, when I found the .hack//REBIRTH game. I guess he never noticed it was there, because whenever I showed it to him, he grabbed it from me and squealed like a fanboi. It was HILARIOUS.
He bought it and it only costed him like $20, cuz he had an EB card with money on it and a discount. That just set off the mood for the rest of the day.

We went into Bookland after that and looked at manga, when his parents called him. They were coming to pick him up, but he said he wanted to stay because "the person who I thought would be here is". Makes me kinda feel a bit special. Dunno why. So, his parents came in to check on him before they left, and we had a little meet and greet kinda. His parents seemed nice.

After that, we pretty much just hung out and played DDR and ran around the mall doing whatever we felt like. Around 5:00, we went outside after I played a game of DDR so that I could cool down. We sat down on the little bumper thingies in the entrance and looked across the parking lot at the giant McDonald's sign. Strawberry was like "I'm hungry, let's go to McDonald's." I was up for it, but I decided to call my parents and tell them before I left, since if they would have come to pick me up, th... ]]> ~AruTamashi http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/11250824/ http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/11250824/ Sat, 30 Dec 2006 21:47:48 PST

A quick apology -- haven't been drawing much. Had plans with friends and my brother, his girlfriend, and my nephew are coming down tomorrow, so... yeah. I hope to draw more when school starts up, but with being moved to Algebra II, I dunno how that's going to go, exactly. xD

And I also need help thinking of another kiriban number. Leave comments for suggestions. =]

Kay. Now for the real stuffz.

Hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas.
I guess I did.. Since it was my last one. o-o;

List of stuff I got:
Blood red Digital Camera, with a blue case.
Screen printing kit (to make more anime hoodies/shirts/etc.)
mp3 player, with speakers, and an FM transmitter for the car.
Newer Tracfone for emergencies
DDR Extreme2. <3333
Quincy Star Necklace
8 anime art markers D!
$10 gift card to Hobby Lobby
2 items of clothing

I think that's it. Not a bad haul for someone with a poor ass family. And one that's going to throw a party in 2 weeks. And HOPEFULLY take me and 2 friends to MTAC.
Man, I ask for a lot. ;

Uhm.. What else..

Speaking of MTAC, me and Tsuki are finally getting our costumes started. We're going as characters from Trinity Blood. (Dunno who yet.) We're cosplaying something a bit easy, so they can learn to make their own costumes for themselves. Instead of my mom/me making them. =/
We bought these really neat coats from Wal Mart for $15. They're trenchcoat length, perfect for the Trinity Blood uniforms. We'll just have to alter some stuff, make some pockets, make some badges and such and attach them to our coats, and we'll have ourselves a cosplay.
Then all we have to do is buy black dress pants, black boots, white dress shirt, and black ties. Then we'll be good.
And, Sally's Beauty Shop = LOVE.
It has all your cosplaying dying needs. Makeup.. hair dye.. (in more colors than I thought there WERE hair color..).. and anything else ya need. <3

Another MTAC thing...
Been looking at hotel costs to spend Saturday night so we can stay more than like, 3 hours at the con. Rofl. I don't want a rerun of MTAC 05. 4 hours in a car, 3 hours at a con standing in line to meet Edward Elric's VA, 4 hours back.. Boooooring. I didn't get to see half the con because my parents forced me to leave. =/
We're hoping to stay in either Franklin or Cookeville. Within about 45 minutes of the con in Franklin.
So that way we don't have to leave so early and the drive isn't too bad.
And hopefully we can stay in Franklin really close to the con so Mom can just stay and watch TV all day. Which she volunteered to do. XD
Seeing as there's gonna be 5 of us, it's gonna be reeeeeeal fun.
Tsuki, if yer reading this, be prepared to help buy a hotel room. =]
(Don't worry, I found some for around $65.. Split it 5 ways, and that's not THAT much.. That is.. unless we stay at the con for $125. @_@; )

Can't wait till tomorrow..
I get to see Robert (my nephew), and let him open all the Christmas presents and stuff that I forced my parents to buy for him from me.
I'm that one aunt who spends too much on their nephew, even if it is her HALF nephew. =/

Best thing about tomorrow:
I get to see Saki! I'm so fucking happy you guys don't know it.
I'm gonna glomp her as soon as she steps inside the house. I hope I don't break her. x.x
I haven't seen her since September, at my Bleach party.. Which is forever to me...
Since we used to be REALLY close, until she moved across the mountain. x.o;
Saki and me are going over to Tsuki's tomorrow to hang out. Neko couldn't come because she's getting back from Nashville late tomorrow, so =/
But yeah. We kinda can't help that.

And 2 weeks from now~
Is my awesome b-day! o-o Well, less than 2 weeks now.
Since it falls on a Monday this year, my b-day'll be the Saturday before..
Which is also the date of our formal.. But..
Most of us anime freaks ain't goin to that cuz we think it's gay.
Next year I think I'm going and wearing gothic lolita if my parents'll let me. http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/11200955/ Tue, 26 Dec 2006 13:20:40 PST '06

It's 23 days till my birthday..
It's on a Monday this year.. So I'll be at school..
And I AM having a party! Papa and I are starting to plan it. It'll probably be the Saturday before..
And you know what the weird thing is?
That's also the day of the Freshman winter formal.
But, none of us are going. So it really doesn't matter. My party'll be way better and won't be prep infested. =/
It's gonna be another DDR/anime party, only this time I'm inviting more.. closer friends than last year; even though it was a blast with the ones I celebrated it with.

Another thing about the winter formal..
As most of you guys know, my family doesn't exactly have the money to go out and buy me a dress to look decent for it.
And..
There's this one guy. His name's Stefan. He's not accepted by anyone, and everyone makes fun of him. I'm starting to regret being one of the only people who actually treat him like a person.
You know why?
Because, he asked me to formal..
And I REALLY don't like turning people down..
But I just never felt that way about him, and never will.
I keep saying no, but he keeps asking me.
And then all his friends start making fun of me for it and ask me if I'm gonna say yes to him that day..
And the other day, they made fun of me and Strawberry.
They told us that Stefan said "Stay away from my woman.", but it was only his friends.
It pissed Strawberry off, and made me cry. I mean, seriously.
And then when I got all depressed about it, Strawberry I THINK was worried.
I'ono.

Uhm...
Midterms were this week, and they'll be finished up Monday.
I passed my vocabulary midterm in English with an 86, so I'm happy about that. Especially for not studying a lick.
Geography midterm was easy and open note, so I had to do good on that.
Didn't have a keyboarding midterm..
Biology midterm was a practice gateway that was easy as shit. I probably missed maybe what, 2? It's sad what we spend all year preparing for. I bet 3rd graders could do it.
Art midterm's Monday.

Worst part:
My Advanced Geometry Final is Monday.
Not gonna do so hot. I've even started studying for it.
I get most of it, it's just the little snippits of what I don't remember that get me.
That and slope. Slope Well, the worse part of it is probably the fact that I have a tendancy to rush, and that I do stupid little mistakes in my Algebra..
And the 90 minute time-limit for 70 questions doesn't help either.
Especially when it takes me that long to finish a 25 question test. >>;
So yeah.

Christmas is getting nearer, everyone knows that, and that Christmas spirit's getting to me again..
Am I the only one who hates the fact that everyone either gets obsessed with presents or goes all religious on you? ><;;
It's even worse cuz in Tennessee you have a church on every corner.
So that's like 100000000000 churches in one town.
And the other day, the Jahova witnesses called our house.
It was on Tuesday, and they left a message on our answering machine.
"Hi, I'm [insertlady'snamehere] and I was calling you to share the Bible with you.. [skip] And we would like to invite you to our church of Jahova Witnesses.."
I almost choked on my spit I was laughing so hard.

That was the day I retook my one test in Math.. And cuz I didn't tell my parents I was gonna stay after school, I used Travis's cell phone to call my house. I love my message. =]
"Yo. It's me. I'm stayin at school right now so (Keith in background:I'M BRINGING SEXY BACK! YUP!) WOO GO KEITH! - laughs. - That's gonna make a great message to listen to when I get home.. Anyways.. I'm staying at school to take that one test.. Shannon's mom's gonna bring me home. So, if you get home and I'm not home, don't worry, I'm safe, it's not like I'm gonna go kill myself. Kidding! Bye!"

http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/10999629/ Fri, 08 Dec 2006 20:34:53 PST 2 1/2 months.

Okay. Another one of those journals that I use to explain to myself and talk about what's going on right now. If ya don't like rants or don't give a shit, exit out of this journal entry now. Kthx.

-------------------------

1. MySpace Hacks.

I'm positive I'm not the only one, but apparently there's a bunch of people going around and hacking everyone's MySpaces. I mean, I don't freak out about this or anything, but I really don't like it. I don't like seeing a bunch of bulletins that I haven't sent be sent. It's worse than chain letters, in my opinion.

Worst thing is, they use things like u and ur, or they don't even capitalize the start of their sentences! It's rediculous. I mean, seriously. If you're going to pass off as me and get other people to subscribe to your shit, at least can't you TRY to pass along as me? Everyone else knows it's a scam. =/

I'm thinking about changing my password to my Gaia one. No one knows that except the people I know that have it. It's a good feeling. =]

I also tried to download that QuickTime patch thing.. But it wouldn't download. - shrug. - No problem -- I deleted the motherfcker from my computer. That should help. ._.


2. Bus problems.

My bus, 37, as most of you probably know, is way too overcrowded. We're so overcrowded that we have usually about 4 people to a seat now-a-days. Well, since we ride the high school bus to the middle school to get on our bus, we're the last ones on the bus.

I guess it's just me, but I'm pretty sure everyone hates me. Except about 7 people.

They were throwing shit at me, the usual, and I suspected nothing. Other than that, something actually stuck to me this time. Didn't notice it till I got up this morning, and when I was combing my hair before school, guess what I noticed.

A big wad of gum stuck in my hair.

Yeah. I ended up having to cut my hair out because it was so stuck in there. I didn't even know it was in my hair when I was sleeping.

Thing is, I know it's not my gum, because it was peppermint and white, and I only chew spearment, which is like a yellowish green. ._.;;


3. Finals/Midterms

My geometry final is next week.
I'm not doing so hot.
Test scores so far this semester: 44, 64, 74. (Aka: 2/3 failing.)
Problem is, if I don't pass, I still go on to Algebra II. Which sucks. =/
And midterms are next week too, for all mah other classes.
Only one I'm worried about it English, since it's all over vocabulary.
So yeah..
Worried. @_@;;


4. Emo problems.

Strawberry's been way too emo lately. I keep wondering what's up.
I really wanna make his life better, but everytime I try to, it gets even worse. ><
I don't like being pushed away from people when I try to help. It's like, one of the worst things I don't like.
That and, I've been more depressed lately too.
Dunno why. x.x


5. It's that time of the year again.

Christmas. The time where my life gets frantic with the constant nagging about how I need to buy presents for everyone. Since my family's not exactly the one that has a bunch of money to go blow on a bunch of gifts, I use what I've got. Usually, that means some drawings for everyone..

But with high school kicking me in the ass and all the shit going on lately, it's really hard to do..

I've done one so far... I'm working on another one, and then I have probably like.. 5 more left.

Ugh. This makes me remember why this holiday is always the one that brings me the most stress. x.x;;;


6. Birthday Party

33 days until I turn 15. January 8th. I wanted to have another birthday party, but the way money's holding right now.. I'm worried that won't happen. My parents are giving me the excuse this year about how we don't have money for them to buy me Christmas presents like they are right now and have a birthday party.

I understand and all.. But it's the one time I can be the center of attention and get presents.. or money to spend on things like drawing stuff.
I don't have a job, nor an allowance. It's hard to get money to do things I like.
And splurge a little when I wanna play that one extra game of DDR at the mall.

I mean, it's one of the only times in the year I actually feel free.

- sigh. - Guess I'll just deal with being alone again.. Just like it used to be.


7. Cosplay issues.

Cosplay. MTAC. Two words that meet whenever I think of anime now. I've got 4 months to get 4 people on track to make some kick-ass costume... ]]> ~AruTamashi http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/10949306/ http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/10949306/ Mon, 04 Dec 2006 14:19:53 PST 1.

[x] Aru [x]

------------------------

1. What is more difficult for you, looking into someone's eyes when you are telling them how you feel or looking into someone's eyes as they tell you how they feel?
- Looking into someone's eyes when you're telling them how you feel.

2. Think of the last time you were REALLY angry. WHY were you angry?
- Probably a little while ago. I wanted to go to the mall. That's not all though.. I've had "boy problems" kindasorta.

3. You are on a flight from Honolulu to Chicago non-stop. There is a fire in the back of the plane. You have enough time to make ONE PHONE CALL. Who do you call?
- Either my parents to tell them I'm gonna literally be burned to a crisp, or help. Whichever numbers I dial first.

4. You are at the doctor's office and she has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live. (1) Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die? (2) What do you do with your remaining days? (3) Would you be afraid?
1) I'd tell the people I felt closest too (the ones that care)
2) I'd do everything I've ever wanted to do and hang with everyone I've been close to.
3) Yeah. I'd be afraid. Who knows. I might even suicide the day before I was going to die because I was so afraid.

5. You can have one of the following two things: trust/love. Which do you choose? Why?
- I'd pick trust, because if you have trust, you'll have true love, and in my opinion, true love is more important. If you have it, then you'll have love, trust, and complete happiness. (Or so we hope.)

6. You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late even once more, you are fired. Do you save the dog?
- As mean as it would be to leave the dog, I would. I've got to work to support myself, if not my family. I might call for a friend to help it though.

7. You are unfaithful to your spouse/significant other. Do you tell him/her? Why or Why not?
- I would tell them, no matter how much it hurt. They have a right to know; if they were in the situation you would want them to tell you, wouldn't you?

8. Your best friend confesses that he/she has feelings for you more then just friendship. He/she is falling in love with you. What do you do/say?
Ha. This recently happened to me. I would probably look down and depending on the person, tell them weither or not I return their feelings. If I did, I would date them. If not, well, I'd help them through it. I wouldn't try to be too blunt about it, but not light enough to seem like I'm afraid of hurting them. I'd tell them that it wasn't a reason because of them, but of me. Probably a reason that I'm not ready for a relationship at the moment.

9. Think of the last person who you know that died. You have the chance to give them 1 hour of life back, but you have to give one year of your life. do you do it?
- That's really hard. Seeing that my Grammy was the last to go to her grave, I'm leaning towards no. She was living off of machines, and I really don't feel like the last hour of your life should be lived like that. To me, it's almost like artificial life. Although, I do sometimes wish I would have seen her closer to the time she died; not a year before.

10. Are you the kind of friend that you would want to have as a friend?
- At times.

11. Does love = sex?
- No. Love means more than that. Love is the feeling you have when you know you and another person are connected, not physically, but emotionally, as well. Once married, it's okay to have sex, though.

12. Your boss tells your co-worker that they have to let them go because of work shortage, and they are the newest employee. You have been there much longer. Your co-worker has a family to support and no other means of income. Do you go to your boss and offer to leave the company?
- No. They'd probably be better going somewhere else for work. I've got myself/family to support as well.

13. When was the last time you told someone HONESTLY how you felt regardless of how difficult it was for you to say? What did you have to tell the person? Was it difficult?
- About 2 weeks ago. I told the person about how I had more feelings than just frienship. I also asked them to go out with me. It was difficult to think about at first, but I saw the time as an opprutunity. Once I started typing, my fingers just relayed the feelings that I felt inside to the message. (If that's possible.)

14. What would b... ]]> ~AruTamashi http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/10880392/ http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/10880392/ Tue, 28 Nov 2006 15:03:00 PST CANDY KIRIBAN is almost here!

Just to remind you guys what's at stake here's the prize:

1. The usual: any kind of drawing of your choice (as long as I can most likely draw it during school and not get in serious trouble content-wise)
2. Write a fanfic of maybe like.. 3 chapters? (I suck at writing though XD)
3. Tell me to CG something. This can include your own drawings, my old drawings, or anything you can find.. even a manga picture!
4. A CG! Yes, not just a CG, but the drawing and CG, made completely for your enjoyment! (Only those on friendslist/friends can get one. )

So yeah!

8 more!

2000. CATCH MY CANDY KIRIBAN NOW!!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!

Hope yours wasn't as shitteh as mine was this year.

----

Here's the story:

As you guys know, today's Thanksgiving, and it's the one day where you spend alllll day fixing food for you and your families to enjoy, right? Well, it wasn't for me really. xD

I was woken up by Mom screaming "THE PARADE'S ON THE PARADE'S ON OMGOMGOMG" everything was fine. Then Kenji called me at about 10:30, so we stayed on the phone while watching the parade.
By about 11:15, I had fallen asleep on the phone and ended up waking after an hour and a half of silence, still on the phone with Kenj. XD She had been reading fanfics the whole time.
Then I went downstairs to get on the computer, but Papa was copying CDs to it so that he could mess with my Mom's new MP3 player (Yeah, my mom got an MP3 before I did, funny, ne?), so I played DDR with Kenj.

Static. The electric had went off.

Everything in the house was without electricity. Just when Mom was starting to make our Thanksgiving dinner.

So, I decided to work on my Sirpinsky's Triangle Geometry project.. I got a lot done at least.. With the broad daylight to see. x.x

Then, my Aunt Carol showed up, and we were still without electricity.

We were getting pretty hungry around 5, so Mom started calling around to see how much buffet dinners costed, and found out that most were at least $12 a person. So, we had to wing it.
Papa went into the garage and got the propane stove and Mom cooked our Thanksgiving by lantern light.
We all ate our Thanksgiving dinner by candlelight tonight.

After this, I really realized that we take WAY too many things for granted, especially electricity.

So yeah, that's my little story for today.

Before I go, everyone go take my wonderful, awesome quiz about me: [link]

Remember kiddies, CANDY KIRIBAN is at 2000!

CATCH IT! (inserttrademarkhere)

Yes, I said Kiribans.

I didn't tell you guys this yet, but it was a tie!
Both of my friends Kenji and Makii got the 1777th pageview.
Go visit them!


Funny thing was, I told them to screenshot it, and they looked exactly the same! Weird, ne?
I thought it was pretty cool that I could have a kiriban tie, so I let both of them pick something for me to draw for them of their choice.

Kenji - Kyo Sohma from Fruits Basket
Makii - Chibi Envy

I decided not to upload these to DA, because they're not too good.. I might decide to put them in my scraps, because I really didn't have the time and patience to draw nice pictures for them. They're both still happy though, so
If you wanna see them, and they're not in my scraps, just ask me!

Anyways...
New kiriban time!

If you guys haven't noticed, I'm almost to my 2000th pageview! So, for the wonderful thanks of 2000 pageviews, we're going to have a kiriban!
Not just a usual kiriban....

It'll be a Candy Kiriban!

So, since this is the first time I'ma do this, it's a trial-and-error thing.. Here's what'cha can get:

1. The usual: any kind of drawing of your choice (as long as I can most likely draw it during school and not get in serious trouble content-wise)
2. Write a fanfic of maybe like.. 3 chapters? (I suck at writing though XD)
3. Tell me to CG something. This can include your own drawings, my old drawings, or anything you can find.. even a manga picture!
4. A CG! Yes, not just a CG, but the drawing and CG, made completely for your enjoyment! (Only those on friendslist can get one. )

So yeah. This is most likely going to be kinda a rant.. x.x;;
Bear with me people.
If you don't like rants, exit this journal now.

[/start rant]

My life is like a swirling pool of emotions right now. It's like they're spinning out of control. It's getting annoying.. Ever had that feeling? I bet'cha you have.. But probably not as bad as I have it now.
I'm just like.. so confused...
I keep asking myself things like "What's wrong with me?" "Why am I so caring towards everyone?" "Why do I CARE?" (and yes, I emphasize care, because everyone is always like "WHY DO YOU CARE ABOUT ME OMG" and they don't like it. But I can't stop it.. It's like.. a
habit. It REALLY sucks. Seriously.)
Here's a recap about what's happened lately:

[x] Tai Getting Grounded [x]
I'm used to this by now, it's like.. the fact of life. If Tai's in high school, then he'll get grounded. - shrug. - I dunno weither or not to call him.. My parents are starting to scream at me about the feking phone bill. "OMGYOUCALLTOOMANYPEOPLELONGDISTANCE". It's fair; especially when mom always calls her friends up in MI and calls them for like 45 minutes while I call someone for 1 to tell them to call me. I'm getting sick of it. -_-;


[x] Kazu's birthday [x]
It was a good day, I made him happy by giving him his Christmas pressie (the Hotaru picture I uploaded on DA). Even though Kenji went to the Panic! at the Disco concert in D.C. that night, we still tried to have a good birthday for him. x.x;; Somehow, I can tell we really wished other people were home, since it was really only me and Kazu.. With a hint of Mizu here and there. - shrug. - I can't help that Kenji went to the Panic! concert, I know, but still...
(It kinda makes me agrivated when I think about it.. but that's just my selfish part of me talking there. >>; )


[x] Strawberry [x]
I'm gonna laugh when he's reading this, but I dun care..
Anyways, here's the story:
At the end of last year, this kid named Adam (nobody really knew his last name) moved to our school. He had orangish red hair, freckles, and he was TALL. Like.. way taller than me.. (WHO ARE YOU CALLIN SHORT?!) And like.. I secretly had a crush on him.. I'ono. Probably just the usual "Oh.. I think I like him" thing you go through when you're in middle school. Ya know? But anyways, I kinda stalked him around during gym, trying to get to know him better. Come summer, when Neko and Tsuki were over at my house, I started noticing like I wanted to see him.
It's a really ferked up feeling, ne?
I hardly knew this kid, but I wanted to see him? - shakes head. - I know it doesn't make sense, but this is just an example of some of the things I wonder from time to time.
So.. When school started this year, I started getting somewhat closer to him. I allowed him to borrow things like my anime CDs, manga, etc. Then he started going out with this girl named Autumn. She's nice, but sometimes.. I'ono. I get this weird aura about her.
Sorry, I know I'm messed up in the head.
But anyways.. Since they both ride the bus I ride to get to the high school, I saw them sitting together..
And you know what I saw?

They were cuddling. And laying heads on each other.

If you didn't know, this is one of the things that I REALLY want right now. - sigh. -
I knew I couldn't make them stop from going out, because it looked like they were both really happy.. But I had that gut feeling.. That something was going wrong.
Turns out, it did. Like. 6 times.
They broke up, went out, and repeated this process over and over about 6 times to date.
So I started getting closer to him. I drew him things, started listening to the kind of anime music he likes, and even starting Eureka 7. (Which, was NOT on my to do list.)
Turns out, after a few PMs on Gaia, I found out that they weren't going out.
And that he had left a not-so-pleasant comment on my profile.

He wanted to kill himself.

By now, this is like a run of the mill thing, talking to Kenji and Kazu and Tsuki everyday. So why should I worry? - shrug. - I just have the bad feeling about it, that's all. So,
we continued to PM each other.. and then I found the perfect opprutunity to do what my gut had been telling me all this time -- asking him out.

I did, and got rejected.
Go fcking figure.
Happens everytime. - shrug. -

But yeah. Since then, I get all kinds of weird, rushing feelings, it's like.. messed up.
One minute, I feel like I wanna be hugged, next I wanna stab someone in the heart until I watch them die a dark, painful death, to kicking someone in the nuts, to randomly wanting ice cr... ]]> ~AruTamashi http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/10692919/ http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/10692919/ Sat, 11 Nov 2006 18:04:19 PST GO SAY HI NOW.

1. Put your music player on shuffle.
2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn't make sense. NO CHEATING!
4. Bold the questions and with the answers, give your own comments on how it relates to the questions.

..:: THE RESULTS ::..

1. How are you feeling today? Ali Project ;; Atashi Ga Alice Datta Koro

Dunno what the song's talking about, since it's in Japanese. It's pretty, and kinda depressing in a way.. Sorta like how I usually feel -- depressed but happy at the same time. It's just one of those weird, Arumix feelings. o-o;

2. Will you get far in life? Yasuaki Ide ;; Reckless Fire

Wtf? o.0;; Well.. From what the lyrics seem to be saying, I'll get pretty far. Because aparently, I'll perservere on even if something bad happens. o-o Makes sense. - nodnod. -

3. How do your friends see you? Two-Mix ;; Just Communication

Wow. Everytime I hear this song I think of ONE person. x.o; The lyrics talk about someone being there for another.. And I like to cuddle with others. o-o So I guess that means that my friends see me as someone that they can come and talk to. o-o;; Which is true. Cuz I'm always listening. ^^ And yet again.. I like to cuddle. xDD

4. Will you get married? Panic! at the Disco ;; The Only Difference Between Martydom and Suicide is Press Coverage

Uhm.. It doesn't make sense. o-o Maybe?

5. What is your best friend's theme song? T.M. Revolution ;; White Darkness

Don't know what this one means either. But the tone of the music is happy and content.. Kinda like how my relationships with most of my friends are. We have our happy moments that we share, and the sad ones as well. The song can be taken in different ways. - shrug. -

6. What is the story of your life? The Academy Is..., Gym Class Heroes, The Sound, and Cobra Starship ;; Snakes on a Plane (Part 1)

ROFL. GO FIGURE. Kinda makes sense. I mean.. "OH. I'M READY FOR IT. COME ON BRING IT!" Pretty much says that's I'm ready for anything that's to come.

7. What was high school like? Gackt ;; N.P.s.N.G.s.

The song has no words. Just like high school. But it is weird.. And sounds like midgets.. But I haven't found any midgets in school..... Yet......... o_o AHHH THEY'RE COMING FOR ME!!!!! xD

8. How can you get ahead in life? The Newborn ;; Stray Dog

Uhm.. I can get ahead by watching Bleach? xDDD

9. What is the best thing about your friends? Changin' My Life ;; Eternal Snow

The lyrics say things like "Hold me tight" and "I love you", and it's a love song.. So I guess it just means that we stick together through everything. ^^ Which we do. ._.;

10. What is in store for this weekend? Papa Roach ;; Scars

That's not good. I'm guessing something bad's gonna happen or I'm gonna get a flashback or somethin.. But I already know what's gonna happen this weekend. I'm goin to the mall to play DDR and go on a haunted hayride with Neko, Tsukkeh, and Kookie. ^-^

11. What song describes you? Fall Out Boy ;; A Little Less Than Sixteen Candles (A Little More "Touch Me")

Rofl. xD "I don't blame you, for being you.." Which I do. o-o "But you can't blame me for hating it." Which also happens, cuz people hate how I'm always so happy and hyper and stuff. I like attention. ^-^; "What you waiting for, kiss her, kiss her.." Is exactly what my friends have been telling me about going out with someone.

12. To describe your grandparents? Ritsuko Okazaki ;; Chiisana Inori

What grandparents? They're all dead now... But it does remind me about my Grammy from what the lyrics say. Things like "To the day that was given our best, Along with a 'goodbye' and 'thank you', Let's end it smiling.." Pretty much explains how my Grammy was always nice and happy.. Her house was so calm.. Hard to think it's a totally different place now with my brother, his girlfriend, and their baby living there.. - sigh. -

13. How is your life going? Panic! at the Disco ;; But It's Better If You Do

Mhmm. This explains my life in those "illegal strip clubs". Notrly. But I do like daquires.. Oh! Here we go! "I wouldn't be caught dead, dead, dead, dead, in this place" refers to my usual life. http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/10493882/ Tue, 24 Oct 2006 04:59:34 PDT
This ish Aru comin to you at 8 AM in Mr. Rudd's keyboarding class..

Here to tell you about mah new kiriban before the bell rings and I get in trouble for being on the internet.

So..

The magic number this time is~~~

1777!

Those who win my kiriban will get a drawing or anything they want of their choice!

If you need any explination of what a kiriban is, refer to a different kiriban journal, it'll be on there.
I don't have time to copy and paste it. @_@

So yeah.

Remember kiddies..

1777! Catch it! ™

But that means it's time for a DA journal update!
Yesterday was Kajonk-a-Con if ya didn't know. Which you should. Because I've been counting it down forever now.
So many wonderful things happened.
I'll use pictures to help tell the story. ^^

Okay. First impression:
1. Small and empty
2. Hardly anyone there
3. OMG GACKT CDS
4. OMG BLEACH MERCHANDISE
5. OMG CAN I BUY THE WHOLE DEALERSROOM?!

Yeah. xD Wasn't what we all thought it was cracked out to be, (but that's cuz we all overexagerate) but we still had fun. It was something to do.. Something to look forward to, you know.. Something to have fun doing. It was a growing experience for Tsukkeh, Neko, Emma, and Alphonse.. Better taking them to a small con like this so they don't freak out so much at MTAC.. Hopefully. xD;

When first walking in, you saw emptyness. YES. EMPTYNESS! That's something I NEVER saw at MTAC. xDD But yet again, MTAC Go! was overcrowded. o-o You saw 2 tvs.. One hooked up to some plastic DDR pads, the other with Super Smash Melee on. They ended up not playing DDR anymore, and just playing Guitar Hero and Super Smash.. and then booting up Naruto.
But that was perfectly fine with Alphonse, he was in his happy place.
So we just left him alone.

We proceeded to our left, to the dealers room. More like dealers space, but that was okay. We were all @_@ at everything. Of course, we only had a certain amount of money that we could spend.. So we couldn't technically buy everything we wanted.
I ended up getting a bell necklace with lace for $6, a pin that says "Yaoi & Bisho - Name of the Beautiful Manga Boys" for $2, a Byakuya plushie (which I might add is KAWAII) for $15, and a Kajonk-a-con t-shirt for $15. Not much of a haul, but I'll deal. x.x
I couldn't believe that they were charging $15 for the Ishida quincy cross necklace, made me uber pissed.. And that they had the FMA pocket watches.. and a Gackt poster.. And Gackt CDs.. and Gravitation soundtracks.. and Deathnote stuff.. and KH stuff.. and and..

THEY HAD A REAL, METAL, PAINTED, KEYBLADE. It was UBER pretty. $79. Yeah. x.o!

And while we were looking in the dealers room, something caught my eye.. A fully dressed, Star Wars Storm Trooper. [link]

This signaled the OMGSTARWARS fanboi in my father.
Who took pictures.
And made us stand with him.
And take more pictures. [link]

So yeah. We were really the only cosplayers there at the time.. Until a girl, who we met, named Nako, came. She dressed up as Cagali from Gundam SEED. [link]
We hung out with her for the rest of the day. ^^

Then we found a Youko Kurama cosplayer. [link]
I REALLY wanted to glomp her, but I compelled myself. Turns out in the end, I got to hug her anyways. ^-^ We followed her to a wig panel, and learned some stuff too. But not alot, seeing as Emma kept glomping me like some insane fangirl. x.o!

Let's see.. Then we found this really neat place, where there were foutains and stuff.. (Which looked really pretty) and took pictures. Random, group pictures.
[link]
[link]

From left to right:
Alphonse
Aru (me)
Emma [link]
Tsuki [link]
Neko
Nako

Yeah. We're awesome, deal. x]
And then while we were running through the fountains and playing in the water, we saw large swords in the far off distance..
For it was..
FINAL FANTASY ADVENT CHILDREN COSPLAYERS!
So we all lined up outside the doors of the convention taking pictures. >D
http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/10376761/ Fri, 13 Oct 2006 06:02:11 PDT Guess what!
I'm at school right now.
And like.. I'm in keyboarding and I finally figured out how to get past the school's firewall thingie that doesn't allow you on DA.
Awesome, ne?

o-o
We're doing this project right now..
Uhm... It's like a scenario team working thingie majiger, and I'm an "observer". It's basically where I just watch people and write down how they act.

But right now all they're doing is playing games on the computer.
I <3 my group.
The reason I picked my group was because like.. I know everyone in it. o-o So.. I guess I understand them better?

I'ono.

Like.. everyone's watching me right now. It's creepy. o-o

Now they're talking about setting the ocean on fire by putting the oil in it and.. setting it on fire.
Is that even possible?! o-0; I didn't think so in my book.. *shrug*
And if they do this, they're gonna set Rachael (who they're booting out of the boat) on fire. xDDD

My group is like.. @_@;

Okay. Gotta go. Presenting in a second. Need to get my stuff together. xD;;

you all.

SAVE ME FROM TEH ALMIGTEH HIGH SCHOOL!!!! x______o

We finally got a 5th person, and now even a 6th!

Here's the line up:

Aru's Car
1. Aru (back left window seat)
2. Neko (back middle)
3. Tsuki (back right window seat)
4. Alphonse (front passenger side)

Emma's Car
1. Emma
2. Emily

Isn't it great?! XD It's gonna be 3 freshmen, 2 8th graders, and a 6th grader. We're gonna KILL Alphonse.. I can already tell this. >D
And if he runs off to do things that we don't (like the Magic tournament.. >> ) Then I think we might have a teeensy problem.

Can't wait to see Alphonse, Emma, Emily, and Marco's reactions to our costumes..
I think mine's the best.. but I'ono. I worked on mine the longest too. xD; I kinda had experience also.. x.x
BUT I AM SO FCKIN PROUD OF IT CUZ I SEWED IT ALMOST ALLLLLL BY MYSELF. It sure felt like myself cuz mom was on some GOOOD drugs at the time.

I'll post pictures when I get back.. Somehow. >D

So, since we have 6 people, we're gettin in for $17 instead of $25.. Awesome, ne?
GAWD, we're cheapskates. >/

But dats how we rollllll. YEA BOIIIIIIIIIeeee. o-0

Saturday was a blast. Tsukkeh and I went to the mall to play DDR so I could practice for the tournament at Kajonk (If Papa'll stay long enough for me to be in it x.o; )
We met these kinda gothic lookin people. Alvin (I think that's his name..), Shawn, and Gingerbreadmanbitch. Don't ask.
We played DDR and hung out. It ruled. <3
And I got my "hobo gloves"! They're black and white striped. o-o I'm addicted to wearing them.

Sunday rocked too! We had a last practice for our skit we were planning to do at Kajonk.. Neko and Tsukkeh practiced their sword fight, and Neko kept killing us! She kept slamming our fingers with the broom! xD
Tsuki's middle finger got hurt, so she goes around everywhere flipping people off saying "IT'S SWOLLEN!" It's REALLY funny. xD

And like.. when we kept trying to practice our lines, we kept getting distracted. And we ran around with my boombox up all the way outside listening to Panic and like.. headbanged. It made the neighbors laugh. I <3 being the center of attention for some reason. o-o

But at lunch, we decided that we're not gonna do the skit.. I think. We might just like.. pose. And if Neko and Tsuki don't wanna, I'll do a single skit thing..
I wanna sing "There's a Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey, You Just Haven't Thought of It Yet." By Panic! at the Disco. I've rewritten the words to fit Urahara, it's kinda funny. xD

I'll jot them down here:

Please, leave all overcoats, canes and top hats with the doorman.
From that moment you'll be out of place and underdressed.
I'm wrecking this evening already and loving every minute of it.
Ruining this banquet for the only Gotei 13...
Please, leave all overcoats, canes and top hats with the doorman.
From that moment you'll be out of place and underdressed.
I'm wrecking this evening already and loving every minute of it.
Ruining this banquet for the only Gotei 13...
When you're in green slacks with accentuating, green, pinstripes
Whoa, everything goes according to plan.

I'ma Geta Boushi, never looked better, you can't stand it.
Because you say so under your breath.
You're reading lips "When did he get that face shaved?"
Haven't you heard that I'ma Geta Boushi?
Never looked better, and you can't stand it.

Next is a trip to my, underground training ground, and
I bet you just can't keep up (keep up) with my training regiment, and
Tonight, tonight you are, you are a whispering hollow.
I bet to them your name is "Ichigo", I bet to them you look like a strawberry...

Talk to the mirror, oh, choke back tears.
I'll keep telling myself that, "I'm a Captain!"
Oh and the smokes in that cigarette box on the table,
they just so happen to be laced with Hanatarou's Soul Candy.

I'ma Geta Boushi, never looked better, you can't stand it.

Haven't you heard that I'ma Geta Boushi?
I've never looked better, and you can't stand it...
Haven't you heard that I'ma Geta Boushi?
I've never looked better, and you can't stand it!

And I know, and I know, it just doesn't feel like a night out with no one sizing you up.
I've never been so surreptitious, so of course you'll be distracted when I spike the punch.

...Uh. Yeah. I think you get it. xD

Uhm.. Anything else.. OH! I'm currently having trouble trying to find a 4th person to take to the convention with us.. Straberry decided not to go.. and Ryan doesn't really wanna go.. And Michael's kinda boring.. But.. There's people on my bus that wanna go and.. @_@ I just dunno.

On Friday, I really wanna go to the West vs Greeneville game.. But I probably won't be able to since "it's becoming a habit" according to my parents. They want me to get involved with the school and when I try to they don't allow it. Gay, ne? xD
Oh well.. If I can't go, me and Tsukkeh get to hang out and do whatever the fck we wanna at my house.. Since she's spending the night all weekend! <3
My new sister. I swear. My parents say... ]]> ~AruTamashi http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/10240090/ http://AruTamashi.deviantart.com/journal/10240090/ Sat, 30 Sep 2006 18:43:17 PDT High school is such a drag...
Seriously.

I just recently had to finish my English projects.. I have a new science project that's due Wednesday that I haven't even started on.. etc.
So yeah. x.o;
Uploads are on the way!
And a special surprise~
A new type of deviation~!


Anyways~

Tsukkeh spent the night last night. We went to the East VS West game together yesterday..

Recap:
1. Getting felt up by random upperclassmen >>;
2. Getting poked by a fake axe
3. Never sitting down for the 5 hours we were there
4. Seeing Kendall
5. Seeing band friends
6. Seeing random people in Greek costumes..
7. Seeing someone dressed as Darth Vader that was about 5 people away from me that included red (almost crimson, our school color) lightsaber. [He was really cool. Whenever the band played "Imperial March" from Star Wars on every 3rd down, he whirled it around.. ]
8. Seeing this one dude in a grim reaper outfit with a gravestone that said "R.I.P. East"
9. Yelling "EAST SUCKS" almost all game. xD
10. Watching their gay bird (even though their team is the "East Hurricanes") run around on the back of a golf cart at the start of the game.

Sounds like fun, ne?

Today me, mom, and Tsukkeh went to a thrift shop to look to go thrifting! <3 You can so get easy stuff at thrift stores to alter for costumes.. It's easy and cheaper than WalMart!
And we went to Wal Mart to buy Tsukkeh's wig (which we still need to style). It was $7. xD
And we found these hats that reminded us of Panic! at the Disco... We put them on and ran around the Holloween section singing Panic! songs.
It was great.

So we worked on Tsukkeh's Yoruichi costume today..
And we're done for the most part!

Recap:
1. Finished pants
2. Found stuff to make shin guards
3. Found Wig
4. Almost finished top

Yay~! ..Now for Neko to find her costume.. And for Straberry to give me some money to hurry and make his shirt.. x.o;

Speaking of Tsukkeh, Neko, and Straberry.. we need to get together sometime this weekend to practice our Bleach skit..
OH SHIZ.
I need to make a remix of Lu:na for our skit too.. So that we can like.. Start it and it'll play when we need it. ;-;
And Straberry should come too so he can practice his "run-through". xD

"COME BACK HERE WITH MY SHOE, KID"

This is gonna be great. <3

Kajonk-a-con's in 2 weeks! ..Well.. YEAH! 2 weeks today! o.o;;;

Gosh it's taken forever.

Neko, Tsuki, and I are also planning on maybe having a partah before Holloween and dress up as vampires..
I'ono..
But I'm going trick-or-treating!
I DON'T CARE IF I'M 14, I WANT MY FREE CANDY. ;-;
I'm cosplaying for trick-or-treat.
Hopefully, we'll bring a group. <333

So.. Hmm..
What else to say..

OH!

My 1500 pageview Kiriban was won by none other than my wonderful friend, Kenjeh!

Visit her now!

For her prize, I will be drawing either Genis from Tales of Symphonia or HitsugayaxHinamori.. Whatever I feel like at the time I have time to draw it.
If you know what I mean. x.o;

Uhm..
What else..
I rented Hellsing..
Found a buncha funny quotes..
Other than that.. Nothing really..
'Cept I should practice some more DDR before the 14th. @_@;

Okay. I think I wrote enough!
I'll be updating in the next few minutes, if DA'll let me!

Ohohoho!

Listening to: Web of Night (English) - TM Revolution

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

I shoulda wrote this on Sunday, but I've been kinda swamped with homework and shit. xD; So now I have even more to tell everyone! ^-^

Okay so.

Saturday was the night of the wonderful Bleach Dub premiering here in America. Rofl. At 12:30AM after Trinity Blood. The cool thing about this was that I actually had a sleepover party to celebrate it. My friends Tsuki and Saki were the only ones that could come, though. ;-;

Anyway! It was okay, even though I read interviews that said that the voice actors went through pronounciation from the Japanese.. But I could have sworn they pronounced "Kuchiki" and "zanpokutou" differently. >>;

And especially Ichigo. I mean, it's not THAT hard to get... Right?
But it's really fucking annoying. E-CHI-GOO. >>;;

But yea. o.o I just so have to get used to hearing "soul reaper" instead of shinigami or death god.. Which is super, uber annoying. x.o;;;

But yeah. They didn't screw it up that bad. Props to them. It was above what I thought it'd be when I saw the commercial.

And Trinity Blood is a new love for me. Omg. Father Abel is so cute and adorable and he makes me just want to squeeze him till his cute little face pops off. ;-;~

And it's got vampires. <3 The three of us were in the fetal position, shaking when we watched it we were so happy. o.0

And like, earlier that night, we wore random clothes (and I wore my Urahara costume ) and walked around the neighborhood. Rofl. We ran into a bunch of cars, in which we ran in front of and screamed random shit at. It was fun. xD

And we watched Naruto cuz Saki wanted to see Orochimaru... And I came up with this funny idea to turn the TV off when he wasn't on the screen to see her reaction.. So I did.
And she screams.
And we call her a Narutard.
And she denies it.
Repeat this process 10 times.

So yeah. Bleach Premiere Party was a success. ^_~

Other news...

We had a pep rally for Homecoming today. We have another one on Friday I think.. o.o

It was funny, cuz we had a bunch of "class chalenges" where we played games to get points.
Seniors won, of course.
But we won the Sumo Wrestling contest. <3 (GO CHET XD)
And I had to participate in the hoola hoop thing. Omg. I was the only one who knew what we were doing, cuz the rest were preps. xD

But overall, it was funny.

And there was this other game, the human wheelbarrow race, where there were 2 people tied together (like a 3 legged race) and someone else flat, walking on their hands while the other 2 held their feet.......... and OMG. The guys fell on each other. And it looked like they were doing wrong things. Omg. It was funny and awesome at the same time. o.0;

And then there was this thing where we had to pass a Lifesaver candy through the line using little coffee straws.

OMG. From a far away distance, it looks like people are making out. Which I was at a far away distance, so yeah. Yaoi.

And the best part was at the end, cuz the guys that escorted the homecoming queen nominees got to dress as girls.

And Kendal, the gay drum major, dressed up as like.. a stripper or something.

OMG. So many thoughts were running around in my head at that point. Especially Yaoi. And Gravi.

He looked like he BELONGED in Bad Luck. <3

So yeah. Awesome part of the day. <3

So~ High school sucks, projects are overwhelming, homeworks' a bitch, and life just is the way it always is.. sucking. xD;

So that's all the news for now in the life of Aru. Catch ya'll later.

And remember:

1500! CATCH IT!™

Okie! If you guys haven't noticed, NEW KIRIBAN HAS BEEN MADE! This time it's for my 1500th pageview! Just for a recap, here's what a kirban is:

*music plays in background*

Now, if you're new to my DA account, here's my definition:

Kiriban (n.) 1. A time in which Aru decides to come up with a random number and mark that pageview as a kiriban. The person who sees this number and tells Aru that they did (and must show proof) will get a drawing of their choice. Shounen-Ai yaoi's alright, but anything that a 14 year old could get in trouble for drawing is not allowed. 2. A thing that Aru does that annoys the crap out of her, but makes her happy at the same time. 3. Torture time.

*cough* Yeah, I'm lazy so I just copied and pasted it from one of my previous journals. So yeah..

The magic number is~

1500! CATCH IT!

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

Okay. Now for the MySpace part.

I was bored today and I decided to revamp and change some of the old stuff on mah MySpace page.. It's not much better, but at least it's not so.. default. x.o;

OH! And I went around searching for random Bleach characters on MySpace and I found like.. 3 Yachiru's.. 6 Hitsu's.. some Renji.. Some Rukia.. Some Orihime.. etc. etc. I went through their profiles and randomly added them. xD

And I added Panic! at the Disco and UVERworld to mah friends list!

It was a random day on Myspace.

So yea.

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

High school's been a drag.

Went to the football game on Friday with Tsukkeh. We hung out with the band. Cuz must of my friends are in band, and we went to support them (we hate football x.x), we hung out with them.

AND ANDREW STOLE MY URAHARA HAT! ;-;~

But he looked like Urahara in it! ..If we cut his hair shorter.. He'd be exactly like him! It was cool..

And we hung out with Strawberry and Neko and other upperclassmen and did the Brass Monkey! Omg. It was so fun!

Except when I saw Strawberry's parents taking pictures of him and Autumn together.. >____> For all you that don't know what's wrong with this, here's a hint: (I like him. >_> So yea. I got all pissed and stuff when I saw.. But he came up to me like nothing even happened with a smile on his face. WHAT THE?!

I mean.. Hasn't he figured out FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS I HAVE LIKED HIM!!?!!! ...Maybe I won't ask him out at the convention.. To my luck, he'll be taken. *sigh*

Ugh. And I've had homework stuffed up my nose for the past week. @_@ I'm like "GFLKJGFASDFASDGKLJADG STOP IT PLZ" ...But does it? No. xD;

But I finished most of it.. so.. I'll just do the rest in keyboading in the morning. Doing English during keyboarding rocks when you type 126 wpm. >_>;

Okay! So..

If you guys haven't figured out by now, (since most of you are my friends on MSN and stuff... xD) my computer has been fixed! ^^ And.. The only bad thing is.. I lost all mah stuff that used to be on it.. ;-;~

But! I am on my way to getting stuff back! My Bleach pictures are already growing.

So yeah.

And HIGH SCHOOL.

Kekeke.

Like.. I've gotten used to it. Gotten used to everything. o-o;

Like.. Running 1/2 mile in gym every day.. Having homework almost every day... Yeah.

And my art teacher's status is getting somewhat better.. Cuz we get to listen to CD players when we do our art. ^^

Hehehe. And what do me and Tsuki do?

Switch CD players every 30 or so minutes. xD

It's like.. sincronized listening or something. o.0;;;

OMG THIS SONG MAKES ME FEEL ALL WARM AND FUZZY INSIDE!

(We -- 11th Division)

Yeah. Makes me wanna sway back and forth and like.. wave a lighter in the air. xDDD;;

It's that cute. And peaceful. ^^

But yeah.

Sorry to say this guys, but I won't be on here as much as I was in the summer and don't expect as many deviation uploads and stuff.. High school's pretty demanding. x.o;
