Tenku Is A Beast!! Oh, A Crush?
Okay so, that post I made about... two months ago?
Yeah, render that fucking moot. I'm almost to the point where I've progressed so much that I have about 5/6 9footers left and the boss songs.
You see, after the tournament, maybe about two weeks after, I decided, you know what? I am gonna start doing 9s. At that point, I could do it, but it was more of a stamina issue (more on that). And, I wrote down all of the songs that were a 9 and 10 on Heavy/Challenge. And then I went through the task of trying to remember how many I've actually passed and calculated the percentage. It was pretty depressing at first.
The next day, I showed it to everybody and the immediate reaction was 'wow, you're crazy' but that subsided after I told of my mission: cover close or all of my bases before the next tournament. Okami was the one that was helping me check off the songs. I was actually more comfortable playing with him since he wasn't like as... scrutinizing about it. There were some rough spots, and how I passed certain songs that were harder than the others, which struck some people backwards. I know some songs did. Like Dead End. I almost full combo'd the bitch when I attempted it. Almost a AA even. And yet, at the time, I couldn't pass... what was it?
So, anyway, I'm down to about 5 or 6... 9's and the next 10, Sakura.
Rhythm and Police (Almost flipped a table over this)
Sakura (ditto but, I had a incident with this today)
So Deep (stamina iss.)
Paranoia Survivor (even though this is a 10, it... it's in the list to pass. It is a gateway 10)
Across the Nightmare Oni (ugh)

I believe that's it unless I'm totally missing something. That's in 2 months time. That's a bit beastly, if I say so myself. Now, I'm often paying with Okami on 9runs as I call it. Sure, I might fail, depending on what he picks, but thats okay. Now, for some reason, I'm starting not to breathe. This is an issue, and I would just stop cold to catch my breath.
Well, I'm getting constantly yelled at Okami and Trent, moreso Trent. He made the suggesting while we were... sitting around doing nothing, if someone touches the bar or something it should either kill you or shock you. And then he looks dead at me, and says, "And if you stop, I'm gonna kick you in the ass!"
And he did too. At first I thought he was kidding, but uh... nope. I made sure that I didn't when I played HVAM... oh lord, that song. Let's say this, I had a breathing problem. I would be fine in the first 30/40 seconds of it. And, if you heard the song, it's where the EKG gets a little crazy and then flatlines. That's where I died all the time, until Okami told me to breathe at the jumps. That actually worked. And then I fucked out at the very end, with about 3 steps left. I'm not even joking. This happened with R&P but I always fucked up on that song due to crossover gallops.
I hate crossover gallops. Gallops in general but when you put those two together... flip a horse. And the thing was, I did all of that and failed at the ending as well. I'm gonna beat it out of spite, if I can. If not, training at Trent's.
Speaking of HVAM and him, we... sorta had a mishap yesterday. He gave blood and he was trying to get the sticker off of his shirt, but was being retarded about it... and then he came over to me. I suddenly got retarded too, because of where it was placed -- over his heart. Outside I'm like 'o_o;" and on the inside I'm like 'eeeeee!' I showed a combination of both, because I was just tempted... anyway, I finally got it off and we just laughed at our retardation.
Let me put it this way: the way we act towards each other sometimes, it's like we are going out with each other, I guess. Like Okami asked me one day, out of the blue, did I prefer black or white dudes. I answered it doesn't even matter to me, and he said that he never would've guessed that -- either I wasn't interested or I already had a boyfriend. I pointed out that if I did, they'd probably not have seen me as much as they do. Anyway, I asked Trent one night about something... I don't know how it came out to be, but I asked him, what he thought about me.
I was a little taken aback that he said he was interested me, but I had two things: my aggression (the bluffing variety, I think) and my insecurity. 8th grade has ruined me, let's just put it like that. But then again, if he hadn't taken interest, then I would've never gotten that impromptu foot rub (and me suddenly yelling commands a minute later, IT WAS THAT GOOD). Or the constant teases and hugs. It's perfect for me because I'm 5'2 and he's 6ft. We have similiar personalities, and I had to defend him on that when he caused a little drama. I like how no one said much after that.
When I thought I invited everyone else to the campus band concert (oh lord), but I apparently just invited him. He couldn't go due to chemistry study... and I neglected to say that the concert wasn't gonna be that long... but he was willing to escort me up there when I'm all gussied up (my sundress with some jewelry and some great lotion -- I think either the coconut or jasmine vanilla.). He could've been a jerk and not tell me about him not being able to go at all, but the fact that he was willing to do that is a bit of a bonus in my book.
So, as you probably can tell, I have a bit of a crush on him. He knows it; when I told him how much my dream had bothered me (legit too)... that was the beginning right there. Or, confirmed my own... or something. I really didn't consider it the beginning of the semester. Maybe it was that he gave me orange juice? Or that he smells really good when he sweats? (That...was a bit awkward, but that IS true. I think it's pheromones at work but still~)
...but I digress.
But, anyway, I've improved! ...but my stamina still fucking sucks. I wonder what next week will hold. I have about 4 left off the top of my head. Well, 4 9s and the boss songs. Okami suggested that I do 9s that I know I can at least AA or pass, and then do Paranoia Survivor for the last stage to build up my stamina rapidly. I'm still using the bar but... mainly for crossovers I'm totally not familiar with. Or on fast songs.
