                <description><![CDATA[ I feel lost.<br />
<br />
Like something took a vital part of me away and isn't willing to return it, no matter how much I'm willing to pay.  And the something-thief ran away and drowned itself.<br />
<br />
I'd say it's loneliness, but I'm not, and now I'm going to have to claim that my ability to rationalize is the thing that's lost.<br />
<br />
I have no clue.<br />
I honestly have no idea.<br />
<br />
Today?<br />
<br />
I'm just less than satisfied.<br />

New chapter of <u>Memories for Sale</u> up.  It basically centers on Tsubasa, but you can (sort of?) tell that the first couple of lines is taken directly from what I experienced earlier today.  :/<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Ughhh~.<br />
Yeah, so my brother's having his birthday party today -- twenty-three days after his actual birthday, mind you.  This entire system pushes my own party back about a month.  D:  So yeah, kids-who-know-me-close-IRL, expect an invitation set for around May 19th-ish.  ;D (Ehehe, Diana, I keep forgetting to punch Seth.  -_-x)<br />
<br />
My brother caught this bug in the ventilation system earlier this morning, when he was dusting.  And so he stuck it in this little Ziploc bag .. and as I was reading Gregory Maguire's <u>Lost</u>, I was also watching the bug take its hind leg and scratch itself like a little dog.  XDDDDD;  Hilarious.<br />
<br />
We're picking Diana up in the afternoon, yay!  Yeah, so I should start getting dressed.  o_o;  Still in pajamas.  But then again, what weekend exists that I'm not in my pajamas all day?  D:<br />
<br />
Winter drumline championships next week.  And then my birthday on the 30th.  Heavens, I'm feeling old~.  And pretty odd this week.  I've been completing my math lessons a day before we actually start them in class.  So I get the homework done before my teacher assigns it to me.  (Amusing and stupid, I know.  Overachiever.  But still.  It helps me.  XD)<br />
<br />
On Monday, my English Honors teacher told us that we had to bring an Outside Reading Book (ANY book this time that's fit for adults, at least 400 pages long, and fiction, as long as it's okay with our parents -- NOT a classic!  YESSS~) on Friday and that we were to finish reading the book by late May.  On Monday, and Tuesday, I couldn't go to the library.  On Wednesday, I started to worry that I wouldn't be able to get my book on time.  Thursday at lunch, I headed over to the school library and checked out <u>Vanishing Acts</u> by Jodi Picoult.  I read on-and-off from 5 p.m. to 2 in the morning.  We were supposed to <i>start</i> the assignment at third period on Friday.  On Friday, after school, I finished my book.  YAY FOR ME~ I now have another favorite author.  XDDDD;<br />
<br />
I'll pull out some awesome quotes from the book sometime.  You guys should all read it.  <333333  It was just great.  Probably the best fiction book like that I've read in a while.  ;o<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ But how I wish it were.<br />
D:<br />
<br />
Yeah, so basically I'm sitting in our hotel room at the Las Vegas Monte Carlo doing nothing at all.  We've been in LV since Sunday, and I confess -- I want <b>out</b>.  Shopping, GameWorks (and, with it, air hockey and DDR SuperNova~), more shopping, more shopping.<br />
<br />
<b>My parents took me to Las Vegas and all I got was the memories that came with it all</b>, a long-sleeved polka-dotted gorgeous polo shirt that pretty much pwns all of Rae's striped ones, three pairs of shoes, jeans, a pack of hair accessories, an all-day pass to GameWorks, a stomachache, a downward spiral into deeper obsessions, and the deep desire to go home.<br />
<br />
How're you guys; how's your spring break going?<br />
<br />
The Mood reminds me of .. well, I (Riffie) would be the one in pink going around all crazy-like and such; Mima'd be the one in blue just sweatdropping at the idiocy of it all.  XDDDD;  I miss that girl.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Rae, if you're reading this, I guess y`just missed me.  XD  You gotta get better at this timing thing.  (Of course, there <i>was</i> the small, teeny-tiny limiting factor that I'm only allowed on the computer for fifteen minutes today due to losing my aforementioned phone for what seems to be the millionth time this year.  I'm serious here.  I lost it several times during band camp, I lost it in the stands at marching comps and football games on numerous occasions, I think I even accidentally left it in my plastic-bag-for-uniforms once.)  [edit@10:18 - Nvm, <i>now</i> you missed meh.]<br />
<br />
BUT I'M BACK.<br />
COMEBACK.<br />
MWAHAHA.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ (This is from the 19th of this month.  Therefore, this Monday.)<br />
<br />
Okay, so my mom supposedly unplugged the entire internet connection.  I guess she thinks she's supercool now.  >_>  (Hate to burst her bubble, but ...)  Ah~.  It really is almost ten.  I thought she was exaggerating again; she tends to claim it's ten when it's really only nine-thirty or something like that.  Ah well.  That's pretty okay.<br />
<br />
Earlier today, I went to the library and checked out eight books: Ultra Maniac #1 and #2, <u>The Boyfriend List</u>, another of E. Lockheart's books, a book on drawing manga (I really only picked it out to learn how to CG properly; haven't quite looked into that yet), <u>The Perks of Being a Wallflower</u>, <u>TTFN</u>, and <u>TTYL</u>.  Those last two had better be good books, or .. I swear.  -_-;<br />
<br />
Oh~ Vivian.  Instead of doing next lesson's Bio outline, you know what you can do?  Make a China outline.  Or help me on all of my mini-essays.  <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />  And Rae, I'll just trade outlines w/ you.  XD  If you have a China outline as well, let me know.  @bothofyou - BUT THEY HAVE TO BE TYPED.  NO EXCEPTIONS.<br />
<br />
I've finished 13 books of my 50-book-challenge list.  o_o;  That's not very good, honestly.  I want to be done with a lot more than I have right now.  I was expecting around 20 finished by now, to tell you the truth.  (I <i>will</i>  beat Vivian, I swear, I will.)  Oh, and for any people that would like to join us on this superb task: let me know.  Let's keep tabs on what books we read, when we read them, etc., yes?<br />
<br />
I really want to buy the following books: <u>New Moon</u> (Stephanie Meyer), <u>Lost</u> (Gregory Maguire), and <u>Lolita</u> (Vladimir Nabokov) [Yes, I do know that my mom has banned me from this book.  Yes, I still want to read it.  Yes, it's mainly <i>because</i> she has banned me from it that I want to read it someday].<br />
<br />
Anyone have any good book recommendations?  I know I must have asked this already, but still.  I honestly want to know.  I'm pretty sure Viv recommended <u>Maximum Ride</u> by someone or other to me.  But do the rest of you have any others?  (Jenn, I already added your <u>Notebook</u> and <u>Guardian</u>.)  Diana, for instance?  You have pretty good taste, dearie.<br />
<br />
Blah.  I wanna go online.  It seems as if I've typed up rather a lot regarding books.  XD  Ooh, since my birthday's coming up (next month's close, sure), I'm going to include my wishlist in descending order of priority: new iPod (30, 60, or 80gb, Video only), Howl's Moving Castle DVD, Spirited Away DVD, Final Fantasy III for DS, <u>Twilight</u> (Stephanie Meyer novel), <u>Katharine McPhee</u>, <u>True Reflections</u> (Steven Cravis CD), Wicked: Piano/Vocal Arrangement, any Steven Cravis piano music sheets<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ahaha, Vivian, I understand why you like that <u>Fly on the Wall</u> book right now.  Currently one-fourth done with E. Lockheart (same author)'s <u>The Boyfriend List</u>.  I'll pull out some quotes.<br />
<br />
--<br />
<br />
"Anyway, the sudden glut of actual boyfriends led to many new and fascinating additions to <i>The Boy Book</i>, the most important of which was a list of Rules for Dating in a Small School.  Here they are:<br />
1.  Don't kiss in the refrectory or any other small, enclosed space.  It annoys everyone" (38).<br />
<br />
Does that remind you of PDA in the band hall~?  XDD<br />
<br />
--<br />
<br />
"I felt weird, because we hadn't spoken to each other very much, but I spilled some bears into my pocket and ate them very slowly over the course of the day, thinking to myself, Hutch likes me, I got a present from a boy, Hutch likes me, he gave me candy" (46).<br />
<br />
I especially love those last four words.  The first time I read them, I imagined them superduper~! emphasized.  Like, <i>HEGAVEMECANDYYYY</i>.  o_ox<br />
<br />
--<br />
<br />
Okay, back to studying for China.<br />
RAE, DEARRRR~.  Give me that superstudyguide.  LYK. NOW.  <3~<br />
VIVIAN.  SEND ME THAT WORD LIST.  -throws sandwich-  Thanks, darlingggg.<br />
<br />
Working on my own China outline.  It's basically a type-up and reorganization of all of our notes, so not that useful.  But at least typing it up is making me actually remember some of the crap we're learning.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
So yeah.  I went on MapleStory today (am currently on, actually), thanks to Diana, and I've just realized that yes, I do have a Scania account, yes, my main account is on Windia, and yes, I started playing MapleStory in sixth grade.<br />
<br />
AND NOW I AM PLAYING IT.<br />
And Diana took me to Sleepywood.<br />
At level thirteen.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm really sleepy.  We got home from my cousins' house around 11 p.m. last night, and I slept at twelve after writing in Vivvles' journal-thing.  And then I woke up around 5 a.m. today because I thought there was school, and I woke up at 6 a.m. because my Troy alarm went off, and then I woke up around 7 a.m. because there was another alarm (drat those alarms).  Of course my mom then decided to wake me up about thirty minutes ago.  -_-x  So much for sleep, eh?<br />
<br />
So it's 8:27 a.m., and my mommy and I are making nets.  XD<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Basically, the title speaks for itself.  Today was a bit of an inverse day for me at school.  The classes I normally like, I didn't pay attention in; the classes that I usually struggle in were a breeze for me.  (For example, usually I'm falling asleep in zero period Algebra II Honors; today, I finished reading the lesson and completing the homework before my teacher had even completed his lecture.)<br />
<br />
And then, oddly, after school time wasn't very much fun.  I mean, hanging out in the band hall was interesting, sure, but I felt like total crap.  XD  And then pit practice wasn't that lovely, either ..<br />
<br />
Wow, it's a pretty short journal this time.  >_>  I'll try to get on a little bit later (maybe eight or something) and post something else when I can; for now, I want to take a nap (but I can't) and finish my homework (which I really really really really really need to do).<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Here are several journals I've kept on Notepad for a while.  I write journals to post up here whenever my parents unplug the computer connection, so .. yeah.<br />
<br />
(Rae: Here was what I was going to say the other day but couldn't phrase.)<br />
<br />
[o3.o9.o7]<br />
Have you ever had that feeling like you're not really being paid attention to?  Like you're totally being ignored, although you're talking super loudly and you really want to know what's going on?  Have you ever had that awful pit in your stomach when you know that they're not really caring about what they say, they don't want you there?  When you know that you're the third wheel in the relationship?<br />
<br />
If you haven't, I'm not going to sit right here and tell you about it.  Because it's the most awful feeling in the world, and I have no reason to let you go through life without actually experiencing it firsthand.<br />
<br />
[o3.1o.o7]<br />
Ahahaha.  My mother just unplugged the system.  I wonder if she realizes that her daughter is a beautiful, brilliant genius who knows her way around a network router like no one's business.<br />
<br />
Okay, so I did it.  I plugged it back in using different cables and whatnot.  And so she unplugged it again.  Oh well.  Right now, I'm typing this on NotePad.  (From now on, actually, all of my journals will be typed up on Notepad and posted to DA when I feel like it.)<br />
<br />
It's actually quite amusing.<br />
<br />
---<br />
<br />
And then now for the actual today-entry.  XDDD<br />
<br />
<br />
They did it again.  -_-x  I swear, they're conspiring against me.  (Well, they're parents; what else can they do?  But it peeves me.)  My daddy unplugged the internet connection, so I'm back to Notepad for my dA-journaling needs.  DDDD:  So uncool.<br />
<br />
I did a file-dump yesterday.  I'm trying to add on more, but I'm not sure exactly how that's going to work out.  Hrm.  You guys, if you have any normal pictures (unpreviously edited = normal in this case), send them to me.  I don't care what they're of.  D:  I just wanna see what I can do with them.<br />
<br />
-despair- !<br />
Currently working on Algebra II Honors homework.  -_-x  Superduperly unfun.  I'm trying to fit more than eight problems on one page in order to be more efficient and save space (and thus save paper; thus saving trees; thus saving our environment; thus saving us, which includes me).  However, this isn't really working for me.  DD;<br />
<br />
Ahaha.  I have four more problems to do.  (I should have done this at school after practice, before my daddy picked me up.  Instead, I messed with lockers.  Shows how screwed my priorities are, eh?)<br />
<br />
!!!  DDDD: OH NO, OH NO.  My dad totally took out the internet connection cord.  -shudders-  That's perfectly awful!  Especially since I'd be able to reconnect the thing otherwise.  o_ox<br />
<br />
Oh.  Random passing thought.  Rae.  You have that notebook-journally thing, right?  The seashell one?  (To all South Pointers that were close to me last year: yes, that's the one in which I obsess over that silly kid way too much.)  And the plain notebook?  (In which you're supposed to write in and totally complete, every page written on or drawn on, by band camp?)  Mmhmm?  (And did you see my last journal, about the subscriptions?)<br />
<br />
Phew.  Done with homework and everything~.  Such an accomplishment!  <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />DD  And I'm back online.  Mwahahar.<br />
<br />
By the way.  Vivian or Rae.  (Well, actually, this message should be geared more towards Vivvles, but wtvs.)  Why didn't you tell me I looked super-duper pretty today?  <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/e/eek.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":o" title=":o (Eek)" />  I just saw myself in the bathroom mirror and nearly left the sink on for more than twenty seconds.  -_-;;  It was awesome.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

After perusing more than thirty pages of Love Hina deviations,<br />
I've decided to work up the courage to ask you something really important.<br />
<br />
Would you please do me a favor<br />
and sketch out a deviation of Naru in the snow?<br />
<br />
I'll let you borrow the manga;<br />
I want to test out my newfound CGing skills (or lack thereof).<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Good morning to all of you.<br />
<br />
ãã¯ãããto those of you that think you're a whole lot cooler than the ones who can't read that.  (Or not.)<br />
<br />
So my weekend was pretty dang effreaking awesome.<br />
<br />
Friday - Finished English homework at school.  Got picked up by my dad around 4.  Finished Math homework at home; popped in the Kodocha flash drive thing and read until ten-ish.  My cousins came over; two-year-old cousin got freaked out of his wits by this one Yoda toy of my brother's.  (I don't blame the kid; the Yoda's mouth moves as it talks.  Realistically.)<br />
<br />
Saturday - I got up at seven in the morning to read more Kodocha.  And then we had our winterdrumline competition.  Mm, kettle corn.  Around six, my dad picked me up to go have pizza with my mom and brother.  We ate on that one cooliosos pizza place on Melvern (Fullerton, I think).  Then my dad took my brother and me to my aunt's house at seven-thirtyish.  My mom said for us not to stay too long, but we ended up finally leaving at ten.  XDDDD  My little cousins are pure cute.  And then my brother and I sat in my room and cleaned my flute.  Whoo~!<br />
<br />
Sunday - It's morning.  And I got up at seven to read more Kodocha, but I fell back asleep.  thanks to everyone that made it what it was (although it's highly doubtful that they'll get to read this).<br />
<br />
<br />
+ thanks to Loserface no. 4 for lending me the Kodocha flash drive<br />
(Like, dude, seriously.  Remind you to thank you a bajillion more times on Monday.)<br />
+ thanks to Vivster for connecting me TO the flash drive<br />
(But you were cool in the first place.)<br />
+ thanks to all bandos for leaving campus somewhat early so I could park myself in front of my locker and read the thirty pages I needed to of <u>The Old Man and the Sea</u><br />
+ thanks to my cousins for being the superbly cool kiddies they are<br />
+ thanks to Maria, Steph, Yogin, Steve, Joey, Caitlin (do I need to go on?) for making competition day superfun<br />
+ thanks to my mummy for giving me the five dollars I needed for a waterbottle and kettle corn<br />
+ thanks to Mum and Dad for the wonderful pizza<br />
+ thanks to DC for sitting in my room last night and cleaning my flute with me<br />
(To any people that hang out in the band room in the mornings that care, I'll elaborate on how I spat out names to my brother and he'd tell me what instrument he thought they'd play.  Chief Loserface's is hilarious.)<br />
+ thanks to Mommy again for not ratting me out (I'm not supposed to be online) this morning<br />
<br />
<br />
So yes indeed, this weekend was super-cool.<br />
I'm hoping the next one's this awesome.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ooh, yes, I've decided to go back here.  XD  After work on GAIA, Cerian Heights, and a whole lot of PSP7 tutorials, I guess it won't hurt to try drawing again.  :/  My dad might get me a tablet, so that'll be cool. ]]></description>
