I have a short-term goal for next year: lose twenty pounds and make a perfect replica of Aqua's outfit and keyblade from Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep for Anime Expo. So far the weight loss isn't moving at all but I plan to exercise every day! To this I swear!

I'm gonna go snowboarding next week! Yay! I'll be up in Utah going to Sundance and Brighton, my two favorite places! I can't wait to have some of their hamburgers! I need do really give my board a good waxing, and adjust the bindings so that both of my toes are pointing away from each other, that puts less stress on my knees. I bought these awesome Spyder snow pants for half-off a few weeks ago and they feel AWESOME! Can't wait to break them in!

Rambling, rambling. . .I want sushi. . .

On the 13th during the saddle Bronc riding, all was going along swimingly until one particular ride where the bronc came down a bit hard on its forelegs and the right leg LITERALLY snapped in two!!!!! The bronc and the rider came down hard but the horse picked himself back up and its hoof was DANGLING!!!!!!! A thunderous gasp echoed though the crowd and the stadium was stunned, three riders rushed to the bronc's side and led it to the gate, limping all the way. . . I almot cried, a woman in front of me was sobbing quietly. The audience was silent for quite a while. I don't know what happened to the bronc, but more than likely it has been put down. . .

To my surprise my friends are giving me strength, and my family is giving me hope...
I also feel that I have been rather selfish to them as well, I cannot find a way to ever repay them...

And the blu-ray disks it plays don't scratch very easily...
OK so the first thing I played was ORANGE BOX. IT ROCKS.
Oh, and I got FFXI FINALLY!!!

....cake is a lie.....
....cake is a lie.....
....cake is a lie.....

mwahhahaha....

Anyways, if anyone wants to play, my tag is Hueco_Cielo.

-_-;

Anyways...

I'm having quite a "Major" crisis; I'm just a few credits shy of obtaining my Associates degree- in general science. I kinda have my heart set on a profession that helps out people in a major way because I find great pleasure in helping peple out.

But the thing is that I love music and art as well. When I daydream about having a profession in music, my heart dances so much that it tickles me. But the thing is, the persuit of music and art is rather a lonley and individual road, can't really help people out much there...

So, yeah, there are other professions that I'd like to persue as well, It's just these two are the ones that have the most contrast.

So...yeah...

L8r.

If only they included gratuity with the bill... Burn'd, indeed.

Since the advent of Final Mix there has been many voices raised in awe of the new enigmatic scenes and epic battles, likewise a great demand for the release of it stateside has been breaking many an eardrum.
AM I RIGHT!!!???
*groans* I work at a certain video game store and a great host of people come up to the counter and say, "Do y'all have Kingdom Hearts III? (A fair few say III being their version of saying Final Mix+ 'cause they didn't know of the title of Final Mix), or they would say, "Can I reserve Final Mix," or "When is it coming!?"

So, with my manager's permission I started up a humble petition show our appreciation and enthusiasm to Square Enix about Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+. So far, we had a grand helping of signatures, but alas it's only a meager pebble of a grand lakebed.

We are going to need everyone's support and enthusiasm to help bring this game stateside. If y'all are going to any game/anime conventions or any event that you know will have any potential signers of a Final Mix petetion, please do not hesitate to start up one! Especially at conventions! Then when you feel like you have a sufficiet amount of signatures, attach a grammatically correct letter of the purpose of the petition to Square Enix, Inc. (Square Enix's American branch) Please make it sound somewhat professional!

Here's their address:

SQUARE ENIX, Inc.
999 N. Sepulveda Blvd.,
3rd Floor
El Segundo, CA 90245

It's time to show Square Enix some real lovin' for their fabulous games, huh?
Thanks and GOOD LUCK!!!

The first day was beautiful, though. At the rodeo there are all these awesome rides and food and food and concerts and livestock and pigs and CHICKENS!!! I went by the chicken display area today just to romp around, and there was this one rooster crowing and strutting around and chasing the females. He was cute.
There were these hot chicks as well.

...

...

They went "Peep Peep!" XP

Hey! Did you know there's an actual place called "Roxas"? It's true!!! Check it out: [link]
Cool, ne?

I love y'all!

It....
Was....
AWESOME!!!!
Their music was so energetic, I just wanted to get up and dance! But most of the people there were gussied-up in formal attire. FORMAL ATTIRE at a rock concert! So that ment in order to prevent wrinkles in the Armani outfits, there was no dancing for us.
The lighting for the show was spectacular!!! The lights were in-sync with the beat and the melody, and there were awesome pyrotechnics as well!!!
You know, they sound very similar to the Black Mages...THEY SHOULD DO A COLLAB!!!
GWAH!!! IT ROCKED!!!! There were even some people yelling out "Freebird"!! YAYYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA YAY!!!

Oh, and during the trip to the stadium in my mom's monster of an Explorer, we were parked in traffic and then...

WHAM!!!

A piercing scream...

I'm thinking,
“Airbags?
Didn’t go off…
Dad’s gonna go check the guys behind us..”
I turn around ad I see a white SUV whose front was totally smashed and smoking and I saw a man and a woman come out of the SUV…
“They’re all right..
Oh, Kathy!!!” (My sis)
I swivel around to look at Kathy who had a very shocked look on her face,
“Kathy! Kathy, look at me! It’s alright, it’s alright…” She starts to cry while I’m stroking her cheeks, “Kathy, are you OK? Are you hurt?” My voice was quavering, “Kathy, look at me. Take a deep breath, now another one. It’s alright…” I’m still stroking her cheeks while she’s crying, silently.
She calms down after a minute or two, “Kathy, move your neck all around. Does it hurt?”
“No.”
“You sure?”
She turns her head all around and says, “Yeah.”
“That’s good. We’re lucky then.”
Then my dad pops back into the car and tells us that the guy behind us didn’t have insurance, but the damage done to our car was incredibly minimal: the bumper was just about the only victim and a few dents on the car itself was about it.
Then, we were off to the concert!

It was a good day, all in all.
XD
THE CONCERT ROCKED!!!!
XD

The first thing I'll do when I get one is to download a bunch of Retro games like "Ecco the Dolphin" "Duck Hunt", "LOZ Majora's mask" and "The lost Vikings" and and and...!!!

THEN I'll play LOZ Twilight Princess.
FYI - There will be Collectors Editions Strategy Guides for Twilight Princess and they're gonna release a limited amount so go reserve one at EB Games/GameStop RIGHT NOW!!!!
Believe me, they do go fast.

OK, for those of you who are otherwise...

KEEP YOUR GAMECUBE CONTROLLERS!!!!!!! You can use them on the Wii for gamecube games and some Wii games like "Super Smash Bros. Brawl"
And keep your DS's, Nintendo said they'll be used for future Wii games.

And for those of you going for the PS3...
GOOD LUCK.

I'M A FRIGGIN' MERCHANDISING LEECH!!!!
Hehehehehehehehee...

There's really nothing more to add on from Oni-con, it was just shopping, glomping, and photo shoots really. It could have been better if I was more organized and if I had better knowlege of the events beforehand.
It's hard to write in these web journals because I like to use a certain level of anonimity, I can't really put too much effort into these without sounding like a fool.

Erosion...that describes best what I'm feeling right now.
Like a part of me is fading...

Tch! Screw that! I'm just gonna DDR my worries away! It's not that I have any control over the problems causing them, might as well spend my precious energy into dancing, ne?

]]> ~cielduargent http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/10519279/ http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/10519279/ Thu, 26 Oct 2006 16:44:58 PDT The previous night I did an all-nighter trying to finish my costume (as well as my sisters') with my mom (much kudos to her) and I actually finished them! Then I went to school from 8 to 10 and was all fidgity and I couldn't focus.
Then right after that, I changed into my Dancer Nobody costume and was off to Oni-Con!!!
Once I was there, I picked up my badge from 's mom (much kudos to her as well 'cause she had to wait in line for a LONG time) and then it took me forever to find , then once I had stalked her down we just chilled in her room.
Then about 45 minutes later we hit the dealer's room. So much treasure there.....
We moseyed about then around 5 my sisters and arrived and then we were like ants trying to find the sweetest cosplay and stuff.
We saw and I introduced to and we just went around doing stuff until the 12012 concert. They were really good but I feel asleep during the last part.
Ok there's more but I'll try and fill it in later and giver y'all some pics of people's cosplay as well as mine.

Later....

But I don't blame the Music Nazi, really. Life's been pretty hard to that one.
Good thing this one here doesn't like confrontations or else it would've been ugly 18 years ago.

Oh! And right now I'm learning how to play the ending theme for the Japanese Naruto 1st season called "Wind" by Akeboshi, it's cool!

]]> ~cielduargent http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/10180666/ http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/10180666/ Mon, 25 Sep 2006 09:09:43 PDT Ah, I miss the snow...
Now for a rant (like candy they are...)
Pft! As if I had the money to go anyways, all that's going to oni-con and life!
Nowadays: oh, how my life is dangerously apathetic! There is a music Nazi storming around my house and if I so much as even touch a note or even squeak a note from my voice, my head gets bitten off, and I wouldn't dare to reply in kind. Never.
I'll just let that mull around for awhile, or it's better if it didn't so the thought won't fester in my mind.
Other than that, life's alright; I passed my psycology quiz and I had a kolache this morning so it's a good day. I'm looking forward to working on my sisters' and mine costumes with my mom because we hardly spend anytime together, it's good to do that once in a while, good for the heart.

Thanks for lis'ning to this emo's rant, please look forward for more in the future, ne? Heheheh...

Call me a nerd but I love school. That and I've seen first-hand what happends when someone doesn't finish it. Baka....sheesh....
I'm taking Psycology, History, DIGITAL GRAPHICS!!!!! and some study skills class. And I have three jobs...
Oh! And I'm learning how to play "Tifa's Theme" on the piano along with Suteki da ne, One-winged Angel, Battle theme for FF VII (PAIN!!!*_*') Victory Fanfare FFX version, aaaannndddd Friends in My Heart KHII version. I heart piano... I heart it sooo much!
.....
I'D LIKE TO THANK MY PARENTS FOR FORCING ME TO GO TO PIANO LESSONS AND GROUNDING ME IF I DID BAD!!!! Well, maybe not the latter. ]]> ~cielduargent http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/9373740/ http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/9373740/ Fri, 14 Jul 2006 09:32:11 PDT VGL is gonna have games to play before the concert and they are gonna have a demo of Guitar Hero 2 as well!!! Yay!

On another note: Kingdom Hearts 2 is on the ballot for BEST GAME of 2006 for this year's Teen Choice Awards.
So, GO VOTE!!!!!!

Summer session is pretty cramped up because of the time allowance, but I'm enjoying it nonetheless. I really like my government class 'cause my prof. is very animated about the subject.
But guess what? Class was canceled today due to severe weather and I'd never thought that I would see people dissapointed about that. It's true! My classmates and I were all ready and pumped up for English (because we're doing a very important project) and the prof. comes in with a forlorn look about him and tells us that class has been canceled.
We told him we would rather have class but he grinned and said that "they" wouldn't allow it. It is so wonderful to know that there are still people who actually care about getting an education, it's just so cool, ya know? ]]> ~cielduargent http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/7800338/ http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/7800338/ Sat, 04 Feb 2006 14:16:02 PST Oh, and the KH2 release date got pushed back another thirty days!!!! *ROAR!!!!* ]]> ~cielduargent http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/5942333/ http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/5942333/ Fri, 15 Jul 2005 12:36:08 PDT TT_TT
Even if you stay a week off of the internet, the whole world has changed its language in a matter of days. I feel stupid now.

HPHBP comes out tomorrow!!!!! ]]> ~cielduargent http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/5554463/ http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/5554463/ Sat, 04 Jun 2005 19:25:07 PDT The campsite was actually a newly-built boy scout camp that had an awesome pool with slides, a lake filled with canoes, an archery range (LOVE IT!), big mess hall with AC, and other cool stuff.
My sister tipped over one of the canoes, and she was congradulated for it by our friends. Oh, there were A LOT of cardinals there, which I adore, and I loved to listen to their songs all day long. ]]> ~cielduargent http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/5433534/ http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/5433534/ Sun, 22 May 2005 21:17:17 PDT
Gah... Tomorrow is my last day of school all because my 4th period teacher won't overlook my absence like the other teachers are doing. Oh, well... I have nothing else to do anyways, might as make my day somewhat profitable. And I gotta finish my "Trinity: Sky's the Limit" deal. Hmmmm...

Friday is the Senior graduation ceremony and I am not attending it. Why? All because of: money, crowds (I don't like 'em), I'm only gonna be on stage for like a second, I don't get my deploma handed to me there (I'm supposed to go and get it at from the school the next day), and my school is being strict on, let's say, EVERYTHING!!! There are so many rules and regulations and yada, yada, yada. No, I'd prefer to go out for a nice sushi dinner with my mom, a small celebration. That is worth more than all that extravigant pomp, I'd say. ]]> ~cielduargent http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/5386126/ http://cielduargent.deviantart.com/journal/5386126/ Tue, 17 May 2005 19:11:13 PDT I have finished the final practice sketch of "Sora ridin' the skies" and now I've got plenty of time to finish it now.
I'm gonna name the final piece "Trinity, Sky's the Limit"

Oh, have you heard that Jack Sparrow will be in Kingdom Hearts II?
Just passing the word...^_^v
