Usually I love Houghton and college in general. I tend to find classes okay, some of them even fun, and all of the social activities are awesome.

Then there are times like this.

I stress out about one thing and end up stressing out about everything. Like this week I had an assignment to do over the weekend and then there was a test in a different class today. I knew I had to study for the test over the weekend so I did. But I kept thinking about that assignment and all the other things that will be coming up later on. I eventually stressed myself out so badly that Lauren kept telling me to calm down and take it easy. I called my mom randomly and I told her about everything that was going on and she basically said for me not to worry about it because those things aren’t due yet.

But how can I not worry?

So I got to French class this morning with my assignment in hand. It just so happened that the assigned work for the weekend was far longer and MUCH harder than usual so I wasn’t at all confident in my work. At least today we did a lot of other things instead of just going over the assignment and answering the questions one person at a time.

Then I had my Intro to Christianity test. I don’t think I did too badly but then again, I’ve been wrong before. I’m mostly familiar with his layout and grading style because I had Professor Eckley for Bib Lit. my first semester at Houghton. I don’t know what to think really.

Then I worked on the reading and answering some questions for my English lit class. I got to class at 1 and was handed my test/exam that we just took last week. That was one exam where I felt fairly confident that I did okay and that I would get an okay grade. Not stellar, but okay.

I opened the booklet to find a 77 written on the inside. According to his grading scale, that’s the lowest C+ that there is. He put up a distribution on the board and I realized that I was in the lowest 5 in the class. Maybe even lowest 4.

So needless to say, I’m extremely disappointed in myself and my inability to realize the kinds of things I was supposed to write on the test. I feel like a failure because I was really trying to get an A in that class or at least a high-ish grade because it’s one of the ones that applies to my English major. Now I’m afraid my family will be disappointed with me and that I won’t be able to pull my exam grade back up because the last two exams are harder. Jeremy said don’t panic and that I can do it and he has faith in me. I’m glad.

I just wish I had more faith in myself.

So anyway, this was not what I needed today. I would appreciate it if anybody that reads this just says a quick prayer for me because I could really use it. I’m stressing out way too much and I know it. This morning I almost made myself sick stressing over the Intro to Christianity test.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me.

So I’ve never tried to prank anyone before.

Well, until yesterday.

Lauren and I were out at lunch yesterday and joking around about what it would be like if Caroline had an invisible roommate. This followed a conversation about having invisible friends when we were little and stuff.

Lauren and I talked about what her name would be and what her majors should be. Then somehow along the way home we formulated this plan. We took the sheet that Lauren had gotten about her roommate assignment and used it as a basis for recreating a fake roommate assignment sheet. Here’s what we ended up with.

We each threw in random information (some of our own) and numbers for the address and things. I found a logo online and made the border to go along with it because I thought it made it look more official. We changed Dennis Stack’s middle initial to avoid getting in trouble if this was ever found or something and we didn’t sign it. We also didn’t mail it because we thought that would be going too far and since her reaction was unpredictable we didn’t think it would have been good to have her find it in a place where we couldn’t control it.

And so we opted instead to slip it under her door. We knew it would be a little too suspicious to just slip it under her door so I emailed our RA, Kait Berger. I asked Kait if it would be okay for us to forge a note and sign it with her name saying, “This was given to me to pass on to you”. Then it wouldn’t seem out of place for it to be there. So anyway, we finished the letter and planted it under her door. Erik B. was over and Lauren came into the room right as everything was happening.

We didn’t expect her reaction completely. It had crossed my mind that she would be somewhat upset. She didn’t like, outright bawl or anything but she was ticked and frustrated and disappointed. xD I felt so bad at first. We let it go for a little while though because it’s not a prank if you don’t let it sink in. Originally we were going to staple another sheet of paper to the first one with a sticker of a cow on it but she would have understood that immediately and it wouldn’t have been as effective. Erik convinced me not to do it so we didn’t.

She was disappointed that her roomate was going to be an indoor rec major. She said she hoped she wouldn’t be a jock. xD I knew that was one of her fears about getting a roommate and so I made sure to put that as one of the two majors.

In the end, we all gave Caroline hugs and she laugh/cried and said she hated us but that it was the best prank she had ever seen and that it was so believable that she didn’t feel stupid or gullible for believing it. She hung the letter up on the wall and said it was awesome and that we were all smart for thinking up these things. I’m just proud of myself for putting the actual sheet together. =) It does look official, doesn’t it?

So anyway, she doesn’t hate us and all is good. She’s just glad Natalie Pitts won’t be paying her a visit any time soon.

When someone says, “Eh” you either think of them Canadians and their “How you doin’, eh?” or you think of the term that’s usually used in place of saying some unhappy things when someone asks how your day was.

“How was your day?”
“…eh.”

I haven’t had to use that phrase too often since I got back here to Houghton. Most of my days have been fine or even really good. Tiring, yes. But overall pretty great. I love rooming with Lauren and our personalities just compliment each other so well. Our music tastes are so similar it’s scary, we’re both calm and rational thinkers, we have good conversations, she crashes at night (or rather, “Pumpkinizes” as Caroline calls it) so it kind of forces me to be on a bit more of a regular sleep schedule, we’re both English majors and can understand the stresses of each other’s workloads, and we’re both crazy artistic and can appreciate a nicely decorated room. =)

Some of those seem like small things and there are many more things that I didn’t list but in general, I’m really liking how this is working out this year. Caroline is still nearby so it doesn’t feel like we dropped off of each other’s planets. We can have our own space and place to think and go when we need to escape each other and then we can hang out in each other’s rooms and watch anime and movies and listen to music and talk when we want to. I couldn’t think of a setup that could be any better.

I got my first job a couple weeks ago and I’m currently doing maintenance at the library. I clean one of the classrooms (dust/disinfect/vacuum/clean the chalkboard) and I clean the staff lounge and bathroom/kitchen. It’s only about a 1.15 hour long job a day but at least it’s something.

I’m doing 15 credit hours of work which is typical. On mondays, wednesdays, and fridays, my first class is at 9:00 and I have French, Intro to Christianity, and English lit later on.

On Tuesdays and Thursdays my first class isn’t until 1 PM so I get to sleep a little bit more. I call that my adolescent day because the two classes that I have are Adolescent Psych and Adolescent Literature. Hah. So yeah.

Cameron is here at Houghton with me and about the only times I see him are at meals (which I sometimes don’t go to because I like to cook occasionally) and chapel (which I’ve gone to every time so far). We haven’t been able to talk as much as I hoped to but it does make me happy that he’s on campus and hopefully making lots of new friends. Due to something that happened recently in his life (and something I don’t think I need to be blogging about), I think he could really use a confidence booster and some good friends and prayer. I love him so dearly it’s ridiculous.

Anyway, in other news, I’ve finally gotten myself entangled in a huge fricken web of drama. I love my friends dearly, each and every one of them, but I wish sometimes (well, all the time) that people could just sit down and think about things rationally.

When a relationship goes wrong, what’s the smart thing to do? Get back at the person you once cared about so deeply? Do something to hurt their pride? Cause them mental and psychological harm?

Two of my friends have come to the conclusion that that’s the thing you should do. They both had their own completely separate run-ins with guys and both times I’ve seen both sides of the situation (the guys side) and can tell that neither one of the guys deserved any kind of reaction like that.

What do you do in that situation? Do you just sit there while two of your good friends beat up on two guys that don’t deserve to be treated like dirt? Do you say something to your friends even if you know it’ll create a break in the faultline?

Personally I think acting like that is just sickening. Not just immature, but sickening.

Sometimes I want to cry because I want to do something so bad to help my friends (the ones being beaten up on) and there’s nothing I can do. These are the times when I really start to hate the backstabbing personality that girls often have. I know it’s just a way of coping with things but do you really have to cope with a knife your hand?

Think about it.

And this is why, my life has been a little bit “eh” lately. I really need prayer. I know that I get myself so tangled up in these things it’s ridiculous but there’s really nothing I can do about it. I care too much and I hate seeing even just one of my friends suffering. I attempt to be peacemaker even if that means that I end up being the bad person in the end.

Maybe I’m wrong…but I really don’t think I am.

These past few weeks have been pretty hectic.

My cousin Jake got married to my friend Kim (I went to school with her but she’s a couple years older than me) after dating for 7 years. =O (since Kim was in 9th grade) I was part of the wedding in that I sang a verse from “Be Thou My Vision” while they lit the unity candle. I got to go to the rehearsal dinner and everything afterwards since I was there for the rehearsal. ^.^ It was a lovely dinner at the Icehouse on the 4th of July. They got married on the 5th and so we were there for most of the day. Everything went great.

Then this past weekend I went to Houghton for the alumni weekend since my dad was Houghton class of ‘83 and my mom was a super senior so she graduated class of ‘84. I met a lot of my parents’ old classmates and some of their kids and just had a great time over all. We got to stay on the entire top floor of one of the Randall Townhouses which was neat because I had always wanted to go explore one of those. I was actually a little disappointed at the layout of the townhouse in general and the fact that it’s going to be even harder to decorate the room than it is to decorate one of the dorms. I’m considering sticking around a third year in the dorms but we’ll see what happens next year. Maybe some of my friends and I could rent out an apartment or something in town. That would be neat. My parents did it, after all.

So anyway, this past week was Gaiaonline’s unofficial “Spirit Week”. I forgot to participate the first couple days but I participated in the last 4 days of the event. They had fun days though and the people were flipping amazing and so much fun. Everybody was enthusiastic and probably most enthusiastic on “Cosplay Day” of course. People are so creative! The guy that won most spirited for Cosplay day was dressed as Tuxedo Mask from Sailor Moon. His outfit was great but the runners-up couldn’t even compare. My sister said the guy dressed as Edward Scissorhands didn’t even make it to runner-up. And THAT was a freaking awesome cosplay.

Other days of spirit week were, “Nighty Night Gaia Day”, “Rainbow Day”, “Dress Like a Whore Day” (this is the first day I participated in…whee xD It was really awesome though…lol), “Flaunt Your Wealth Day” (I’ve been on Gaia since 2004 so this was pretty fun =P), and “Class Color Day” (in which people dressed in a certain color according to the year they joined Gaia). I was orange so that’s why there’s the little animation at the top, lol. In case anybody was actually wondering. =x

It was pretty amazing. I was reminded why I loved being on Gaia so much. It’s awesome when people don’t sit there and flame you 24/7 like on so many other sites. You get the occasional person who thinks they’re hardcore and flames n00bs just to eat them for breakfast…but you learn to ignore those people. xD

In other news, I’m officially employed part-time for Jeremy’s company. =) I’m something they call a “Data Input Specialist”…which is just a fancy way of saying I type stuff up that the client wants typed up and put it into the computer as chunks so that everybody knows what has been done and what still needs to be done on the project.

Whee. =3

Other random news. My roomate for this semester is officially dating my cousin now. o.O That now makes 2 for 2 with my other friend Andrea (one of my wifeys <3) dating my OTHER cousin. xD Now if they both RANDOMLY happened to get married or something, that would make them both Rudds…which would be even scarier and even more weird. O.O I love it though. My Sunday school teacher made the observation that everyone in class is pairing off. It’s true though…Andrea & Levi and Lauren & Zach paired off so now there are like…2 single people in the class. xD Maybe a little more but it’s still funny. I wonder who’s next. =P

Haha, and Lauren if you ever read this I think it’s awesome that you two are dating. ^_^ I love both of you so squishin’ you two together just makes it easier to love you at the same time! =O Two birds with one stone. Lol. Just kidding. That makes no sense anyway. =P

I think I’ve been a very good girl this time around. I’m very satisfied with my life and how things are going right now. I miss him terribly now that he’s back home in Alabama but I feel like we accomplished a lot in this last vacation. Jeremy got to meet my grandparents and my uncle (on my daddy’s side) and a WHOLE BUNCH of family on my mom’s side, mostly cousins. He helped out with Cam’s graduation party and got to meet my friend Josh and his fiancee Jessica as well as a lot of my other friends and members of the church family that came (and also those at church).

We got to spend lots of wholesome time together. We went to the Carousel mall with Lauren and had a great day just eating, shopping, and looking around in jewelry stores (=P). We watched “Hitch” in my room in my bed with my little sister and laughed so hard. Jeremy got to go to a mini-recital where I played my ocarina and my sister played flute. We went with my family to go see WALL-E in theaters (which was awesome). We went to Denny’s afterwards and took funny pictures of my sister. We watched Full Metal Panic: Fumoffu with my sisters. =3 We played “Apples to Apples” with my grandma and uncle and my family and PIT as well. Jeremy even drove my grandma’s car when we had to go with my mom to drop the van off to be worked on at the shop so we got to feel what it would really be like to just drive in a car together.

I cried a little bit this time before he left (before we drove to the airport even) and I had an even tinier breakdown yesterday. I think my issue is that this vacation has been the best vacation with Jeremy yet. Everything has been so upbeat. My family has been getting along really well with him and he with them. Everybody loves him and there’s a lot of acceptance on all sides. I don’t know, I just thoroughly enjoyed myself.

We were driving in the car on the way home after dropping Jeremy off at the airport and just the thought of him not being there in my house made me sad. I got so used to it over these past 10 days that it felt wrong for it to not be the same.

Sorry if this a little bit choppy and some sentences seem non-sequitor. xD I’ve been talking to my brother this entire time so I’ve had a hard time concentrating fully on this but I wanted to post it. =3 Yay.

Oh, random piece of information. I’m working on becoming more flexible. =) I want to bend more like a rhythmic gymnast…which won’t happen so I’ll work on just being able to do a split properly. ^__^ So yay.

First of all, I just remembered that I never posted to alert anyone of my new music page up on myspace.com. =) I’ve only got one cover up so far but if you care to listen, check out at myspace.com/ruzenathibaultmusic. Excuse my microphone too. I’m stuck with that one until Jeremy gets his buhonkus over here to help me pick out a new one. =P

In other news, I’ve recently started watching the anime Bleach. I know what you’re probably thinking. xD It’s 200+ episode long, you freak! Why would you do that!?!? But after seeing the limited release in theaters and also, finding out that it was the great Johnny Yong Bosch (voice of Kiba in Wolf’s Rain among other things) that does Ichigo’s voice I decided I must begin the long journey, that is, finishing Bleach. xD

I’m a whole 10 episodes into it so be proud of me. =3 I’m loving it so far though. I really appreciate that they can have a fair amount of blood and action and stuff and still fit in the emotional stuff and the crying and whatnot. I just like it. It makes you feel closer to the characters and I have great hopes for this show. I do, however, think they should end it though. xP We don’t need another DBZ repeat. I sat through EVERY episode of that show and loved it (especially SS Gohan during the Cell Saga…)

…but I don’t know. I think enough is enough sometimes. We don’t want this to end like Inuyasha either. xD

Anyway, we only have approximately 11 days until Jeremy comes to visit me!!! =D How flipping amazing is that!?! =) We’re headed on the 5th visit. I’m so happy.

“I could never imagine a world with you!” is only one of the many great (and sometimes cliche…case and point) lines in Shonen Jump’s “Bleach: Memories of Nobody” movie.

My mother and my sisters and I went to go see it today. I was kind of scared cause, even though I have only watched like…7 episodes of the show, I know enough about it to know that there’s plenty enough profanity in the movie and that kinda thing. My sister (who has seen a whole 22 episodes of it xD) said she hoped my mom wouldn’t freak out on us and so I started to worry. Bleach didn’t seem (at first) to be something my mom would like.

However, I didn’t know how wrong I would be. Okay, so the movie starts with this big creepy monster thing as usual. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the music wasn’t your typical ‘battle music’ and the style and scenery was just the kind of thing to make you go, “wow, that’s beautiful” in the middle of a fight. xD I was happy because the type of music and the scenery surrounding an anime is something that is really important to not only me but also to my mom. We’re both people that are very into the aesthetics of things.

I was a little disappointed by the lack of fan-unity at this limited release. Death note was far more active and had a lot more crazy people that made you feel like you weren’t the only one gushing about the series. I even missed the yaoi fangirl squad; at least they made things lively. =/

At the end though, there were some people that got a little bit more crazy and during the movie, a turning point (ie. a point that woke people up and made them feel a little more fangirl/boy-ish was when this one dude with a little girl on his shoulder appeared in the fight. I don’t know his name or anything about him (I’ll watch some of the anime later, I swear xD) but everyone was freaking out and laughing and being rowdy when he appeared. All four of us were confused as to why, although the little girl WAS rather cute and out of place. I’m guessing she’s not just any little girl.

At the end of the movie, my mom actually gushed about it a little. She rather enjoyed it and she told my sisters and I that she didn’t even mind the swearing but that it was a bit unnecessary. I think after I explained that they really were keeping to the script and just kept what was originally in there in place, she felt a little more at ease about it (just knowing that it wasn’t put there to please American fans). Even still, she didn’t care much in the first place so I was happy. Maybe that means if they put a second one out then she’ll be willing to take us to that. I heard her talking to my dad earlier about it and, maybe I’m wrong, but he made it sound like he had wanted to go too or something. o.O I don’t really know. I could be hearing wrong.

Either way, today was a great day. We stopped by McDonalds on the way home just so my mom could buy us all a big thing of sweet tea. =) We’re southern at heart, here at home. Sweet tea is a must-have on occasion at our house and not many places up north carry it. I just thought it was funny she drove us through the drive-thru just to get it. The guy was probably confused. xD

Hah, random story. Last time when Lauren, my sisters, and I went to the Death Note movie (at the same mall, Carousel Center) we went to Hot Topic. My sister bought this little keyholder thingy and the guy at the counter (your typical dread-locked, majorly pierced dude with an awesome and sweet personality) asked her if she wanted to donate a dollar to some children’s charity. She kindly said no and he started messing with her and trying (jokingly) to convince her to donate a dollar. It was funny, we went in there today and the same guy was there. We were so excited. My sister walked into the store with the FULL intention of buying something just so when the guys asks, “Would you like to donate a dollar to such-and-such charity?” she could say, “Did youuu ever donate a dollar?”. xD Knowing her, she would TOTALLY do it. I fricken love my sister. Hah.

Oh, the .gif at the top of this page is of Byakuya Kuchiki. It didn’t say much about him in the movie but my sister was pretty sure he was the brother of one of the main characters, Rukia. I could see it, being as how he does some saving of her in the movie. =P Anyway, I did some research and found out he is indeed her brother but adoptive brother. He was originally the husband of her older sister. Watch the show to find out what happened.

He’s there though because my mommy and I both like him. xD I love that my mom and I have similar tastes in fictional characters. My mom’s words were, ” I liked him. He was sexy.”

So today I was talking with my friend Aaron. We decided that in order for me to officially get engaged, I have to walk around the Houghton quad at least 3 times with Jeremy at some point. I told him we totally will. Then he suggested that we have to kiss in the bell tower. This was how the rest of the conversation went.

wabibleclub (1:44:47 AM): after you walk around the quad
SaintSakuraSama (1:44:49 AM): =O I hope all my friends don’t decide to get married at hte same time though
SaintSakuraSama (1:44:54 AM): haha, we totally will whenever he comes
wabibleclub (1:44:57 AM): and kiss in the bell tower
SaintSakuraSama (1:45:04 AM): o.O I would be afraid to do that
wabibleclub (1:45:10 AM): I wouldnt
SaintSakuraSama (1:45:12 AM): lol
SaintSakuraSama (1:45:18 AM): what if the bells went off =O
SaintSakuraSama (1:45:31 AM): we would be near-deaf for the rest of our lives
wabibleclub (1:45:33 AM): I would do it late at night
wabibleclub (1:45:41 AM): and the bells are speakers
wabibleclub (1:45:44 AM): so its all good
wabibleclub (1:45:51 AM): lol
wabibleclub (1:46:04 AM): you woudlnt be deaf just not be able to hear
SaintSakuraSama (1:46:22 AM): and forever our conversations would be,

“Jeremy? Honey? Could you please make dinner?”
*old person Jeremy* “WHHHHATTTT?”
“I said…could you puhleeeeze make dinner!!!!”
“…I…what????”

wabibleclub (1:46:33 AM): ha ha
SaintSakuraSama (1:46:48 AM): “I’m playin’ final fantasy, woman! Make your own dinner!”
SaintSakuraSama (1:46:49 AM): xD
wabibleclub (1:47:08 AM): yup
wabibleclub (1:47:20 AM): fina fantasy 1,000,000
SaintSakuraSama (1:47:22 AM): And then I’d be like, “Well fine. I’m gonna go play Mario Kart Wii and order a pizza only big enough for myself.”
SaintSakuraSama (1:47:26 AM): Lol, totally.
wabibleclub (1:47:27 AM): since they dont stop making them
wabibleclub (1:47:40 AM): dont forget the onion rings
SaintSakuraSama (1:47:49 AM): And it’ll be like, “SUPER DEDUPER ULTRA MEGA SPACE MARIO KART 590358″
SaintSakuraSama (1:47:51 AM): xD

At this point, I then talked to Jeremy about it.

SaintSakuraSama (1:53:19 AM): I totally wanna buy a copy of super duper ultra mega space mario kart 590358 whenever it comes out.
SaintSakuraSama (1:53:25 AM): can we?
CompletelyJeremy (1:53:42 AM): Yes, we can.
CompletelyJeremy (1:56:27 AM): As long as you don’t mind me getting Final Fantasy MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM (etc. for space purposes).
CompletelyJeremy (1:56:42 AM): (1000000)
SaintSakuraSama (1:57:24 AM): *Laughs*

I can’t wait to see what the future holds.

Oh, in other news. I’ve recently started reading/watching something called La Corda D’Oro which, if I’m not mistaken, began as a manga (that I think was created to have a game based off of it or the other way around?) and then was eventually turned into an anime. I love this show so much and anyone who’s into music (namely classical) and/or classic instruments like the violin, piano, cello, clarinet, flute, or trumpet, then I totally suggest you watch this show. It’s so beautifully drawn and everything is so well executed. Not only do the actual people that performed the pieces in the show play well, but the characters themselves actually move like they should to play each song.

For example, when someone is playing on their violin, the parts that would require vibrato show the character ACTUALLY moving their hand as they would if they were doing it for real. Same with the piano, the character’s body moves with the music and if they’re playing up high then the hands are up high or whatever. It’s just fantastic. You really get a feel for the music when you watch it.

I wanted to share a small clip of it with you. This is a scene where the main character (Kahoko) and one of the rudest and most stand-offish guys ever are playing this beautiful rendition of Ave Maria. It’s honestly breathtaking.

(First of all, this is a LOOOONG entry.)

Last night my sisters and my future roomie (Lauren) and I drove out to Syracuse to the Carousel Mall and saw the Death Note limited release in theaters. It was great.

One of the funnest things to do was look around the mall and see if we could spot any cosplayers. I actually saw a few and then we ran into some in Hot Topic. The exchange was priceless. There were three girls all going together, one dressed as Misa, one as L, and one as Light. I knew they were yaoi fangirls because the girl dressed as Light had L on a chain. xD It was kinda creepy.

So anyway, the girl dressed as Misa walked into the store and saw Eloise (my sister) and her Pokemon shirt that she happened to be wearing and just yelled out, “Oh my gosh! I have that shirt! Pokemon is awesome!” and she started talking to us. She said she was going to the Death Note showing and when we told her we were going too she was all squeally and hugged my sisters and I. Lol, it was funny.

So then she introduced us to her friends and we left to go to the theater and get our seats. I expected the theater to be a little more full than it was but I was glad it wasn’t jam-packed cause we got good seats and everything. The girls from Hot Topic sat behind us. I did Clarice’s hair (my other sister) so that she could look like Misa too and the girl from HT was all like, “You have my hair!”. Clarice looked super cute that way. I think I’ll do her hair like that more often, lol.

So anyway, before the movie even started people were freaking out and being normal fan-people. They were all talking about Death Note and L and how much they hate Light, yadda yadda yadda. One girl in the front stood up and turned around, asking everyone whose side they were on and most people (if not everyone) said L. No surprise there, Light’s a freak. (and L’s voice is sexier…but yeah)

Speaking of voices (and no, I’m not hearing them). I went to the movie fully convinced that it would be subtitled and we were all prepared for it (Lauren and my sisters and I). The movie came on and someone talked and once we realized it was dubbed we all just kind of looked at each other. I could FEEL the disappointment in the room because I know a lot of other people thought it would be subbed as well. In the feature film behind-the-scenes thing at the end they had subs for a lot of it and I could hear people talking about how the movie should have been like that. I agree. I’ve seen it with subs and it just looks so much better when the characters mouths move correctly.

HOWEVER, they did use the same voices as the English Dub, which was amazing and great of them to do. It made me feel better because then at least the voices were familiar and consistent and not some random person trying to sound sexy like Alessandro Juliani (L). It made me feel like they at least put some time and thought into it.

So yeah, the dub was great. It’s only the fact that the mouths don’t match the words that bugged me. Ah well, it was still great though.

My sisters loved it too. I was so happy because I was afraid it wouldn’t be their thing but they seemed to really enjoy it. I can’t wait to see if they put the second movie in theaters as well. If they do, I’m totally there. Lauren said she would be too.

So anyway, we got slightly lost on the way home. That was fun. Stupid I81 that we couldn’t find. I realized that I am a failure at life while helping someone drive and find signs, especially if I don’t have my glasses. x_x

I played spades with Jeremy until wayyy too late at night (early in the morning). It was bad. xD But yet…so fun at the same time.

——–

Today I wasn’t planning to do much but then around 2:00 Lauren called and said she was about to go to Watertown and on the road. She said she then remembered that I would probably be home and bored too and wanted to know if I would go with her and I was like, “YES” so we went. Hah.

You people have NO idea how much of a life I DON’T have…seriously.

Anyway, so we went to Watertown with no goal and just to randomly hang out so we went to the mall and wandered around and stopped by some places including FYE where I bought a bottle of Ramune and some Japanese gum. It was kinda funny cause it was actually labeled ‘anime candy’ as if only anime fans buy/eat it. xD We stopped by the 99 cent store too and Lauren and I bought some oriental parasols for 2.99 each and we’re going to hand ours above each of our beds in the dorm. It’s going to be great. Lauren plans to do some paintings possibly that are asian-inspired for our room. It should be great, I can’t wait to see what we come up with.

I also plan to make a bunch of paper cranes over break to hang up scattered across the ceiling. It’s gonna look really awesome, especially if Lauren manages to get an asian-inspired bedset too. =) We need some anime posters/wallscrolls to top it off. (besides my fairy posters and my Sesshomaru wallscroll). Hopefully we can secure some FMA wallscrolls or something. It would be great. =)

So anyway, after we did the mall we went to Target and I got a bunch of awesome stuff from the $1 section. I LOVE their $1 section…seriously.

After that, Lauren got a call and found out she wouldn’t have to go to the stable so we went to McDonalds instead and ended up talking about random religious things, life issues, the world, creation, politics…and pretty much everything you can touch on in about an hour, lol.

It was awesome. I had a great day, or rather, a great two days. I love my life.

Hi, Jeremy here. Apparently, the base software package that I used to build the Shroomy site had lovely security vulnerabilities that allowed a bunch of losers to hack the site. It’ll be down for a while, while I put together something else to let Ruzena do her comic publishing.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
