Haha, well I've been meaning to make a post for awhile but I get so distracted when I go on-line. XD And I usually end up forgetting what I want to write.
First things first, last Wed, after the last day of cram/SAT school, my sister
demiofpolerex desperately wanted to go to Kinos...so what do you know, we went! And we dragged along our friend too (who almost couldn't come XD). I'm glad I took my bookbag instead of my messenger bag so I could stuff my purchases into my bookbag (my shoulders still ended up hurting though @___@)
I think, first we went to Barnes and Nobles (the one near Rockefeller Center...ish?XD). I wanted to get some manga, but the one we went to, their selection wasn't that great =/ My friend ended up getting the new Artemis Fowl book LOL (I DIDN'T KNOW THERE WAS A NEW BOOK) and me and
demiofpolerex ended up getting SAT books. LOL haha our friend kept complaining about what dorks we were and how laaaaaame we were. XDDD
Our next stop was Book Offs. Well, it took us a really long time to find it @___@ I think its because I had the wrong address and we were searching 49th st for forever LOL when it was on like 45th street (I had to call the store ORL) XD We have such a bad sense of direction...especially in Manhattan because we don't know which side of the streets go to (for ex, which side of the street is 6th/5th ave) and we end up walking back and forth a lot ^^;;;;
So we FINALLY FOUND IT and were looking around. Oddly enough I couldn't find any Arashi CDs @____@ I was looking in the JPOP section (I saw AKB48, GReeeeN, KAT-TUN, Angela Aki, etc) but no Arashi. I finally saw a little stub with ARASHI written on it, but there were no Arashi CDs @__@ In the end, I didn't buy anything. Our friend bought a copy of an Anne Rice book and that wasit. XDDD But I did see a Reborn DS came *w* only...it was in Japanese, haha.
I think our next stop was Best Buy! Since I wanted to buy a mic XD Luckily, Best Buy was much easier to find, since we just walked down the street and it was there in plain site XDDD Coincidentially, Staples was right next to it, so we decided to check it out. They didn't have any mics though. So we tried Best Buy, and they had the one I wanted! (the Logitech one) but SO EXPENSIVE -cry- well, at least to me. After minutes of contemplating and annoyed sighs from my sister and friend, I caved and bought it. XDDD
Then FINALLY we were off to Kinokuniya XDD We couldn't find a subway and decided to just walk the three streets/blocks down to it LOL my feet hurt so badly, carrying so many things (COUGH, HEAVY SAT BOOK, COUGH XD) I dunno why I brought shrimp crackers with me, we never ate it (and it just took up space in my bag xD). By then it was like maybe 1pm (we caught the 8:10 am bus in the morning and got the 10 am something subway to Manhattan XD) Anyway, WE WERE STARVING. RAWR. XDD so we checked out Cafe Zaiya AND UTTERLY SHOCKED AND DISMAYED. THERE WERE NO MORE ONIGRI -CRRRRYYYYYY- T____T so we just grabbed some boxed lunch and ordered. We sat down and ate and my friend kept calling me creepy for eyeing all the cute kids roaming around -PEDOTUNE- XDD jk XDD they were so squishy and screaming over Ponyo dolls. LOL My friend and I were very forlorn over the APH plushies (THE JAPAN ONE WAS SO CUTE XD) but they were so expensive (supposedly, my friend said it was $50? what the! o.o)
So after we finished up eating, we decided to browse long enough in hopes of them restocking onigiri. I really wanted to drink miso too...but I was too full orz. So I saw the Kimi ni Todoke fanbook and was happily flipping through it. SawakoXKazehaya too cute. I want the whole manga set *w* -wants money- LOL XDD
Then I wandered into the album section and grinned under new releases, there were a bunch of Arashi things. XDD Also I found the Saigo no Yakusoku DVD with the naked torsos LOL and showed my friend and she was like O.O -disturbed look- and I laughed and put it away. On one of the TV screens, there was a Hatsune Miku video too! (my sister pointed it out) but there was no sound >.> there were Miku/Vocaloid CDs/DVDs too! ^^ OHHH. there was a Hetalia DVD that came with these REALLLLLLY CUTE stickers and my friend and I were like oooooh -WANT- and this other girl came over and was like "is that the DVD?" or something like that and we were like IT HAS STICKERS and she was like *w* hahahaha. So my friend wanted the Hetalia fanbook (I TOTALLY MADE HER A FAN XD) but she "owed her sister something" so she ended up only buying a rillakkuma (however you spell that ^^;;) bento for her sister (even though her sister wanted a fork and knife set or something o.o). So I was looking at the manga and looking for Reborn WHEN I SAW REBORN COLORE.
They had REBORN COLORE!!!
I didn't want to leave without getting anything, so after internal debating, I got the Reborn Colore! I'm so happy I did. IT'S SO EFFIN PRETTTTTTTTTTY. -drools- XD -rubs cheeks against the cover, which is D2718 LOL XDD- AND YAY! when we checked again, they restocked the onigiri *w* LOL I ended up getting 2 tuna and a salmon for me, and a salmon for my brother. My sister ended up getting 3 magazines too (all with Arashi magazines, so she can replace that Yamapi poster on her door LOL XDD). So then with weary feet and sad wallets in our pockets we managed to catch the express train back to the town where'd we catch the bus.
LOL my sister really wanted Starbucks (because in Barnes and Nobles earlier, our friend had gotten one and we hadn't XD) so we managed to stop by the public library to use the bathroom, dash across the street to Starbucks to grab mocha fraps and run down the street to catch the 4:30 bus XDD. All in a good day's work. XDDDD we were so exhausted, but it was fun!
So...pictures of my purchases. LOL XDD Tadan~~~
And because COLORE is so pretty *w* LOL yes COLORE is on top of my AP US textbook, haha XDD
So in the spring, I entered that Creative Communications thing and they accepted my poem for publication. yay! So I ordered a copy of the book in the spring because it's my first published work! (fine, maybe not so big, but big to me XD) and then it FINALLY came like Sat XDD
YAY! So if you ever get it, my poem is on page 42! (which I doubt you'll get, but ah well XD)
I don't think I ever made a post about it, but maybe a month or two ago, I made a Skype! Er...probably most of you people reading this already have me, but if you don't, my skype ID is seraphictune ^^ Which reminds me, if any of you are a ROM/lurker, feel free to comment! LOL (but I highly doubt that). Just decided to throw that out, since some people have been friending me, but not commenting =/ So...yeah. XDD I don't bite! ^_____^
-thinks- was there anything else? I know I wanted to do some other flail. But this is long enough for now. And I really don't remember what it was I was going to say.
But last time, I didn't mention ShounenT and Dasoku's cats...so I guess I'll put a screencap? (er...if it's not so ok with their cats, I might lock the post/delete the pictures XD)
This is Dasoku's beloved cat, Moka. SO CUUUUUUTE. AND FLUFFFFFY. SO CUUUUUTE. XD Yeah, Dasoku seriously loves Moka...he even has pictures of her on his wall,hahahahaha XDD
And here's T-kun's cat, I think her name is...Miao? XDD -not sure -
Both very cute kitties, but I think Moka is cuter (sorry Miao!) since she is fluffffffy *w*
That's it for now~ =)
EDIT: Hm...in relation to the recent NicoRaji...I managed to successfully timeshift once. But I could only watch some of it and had to do my hw. So I checked to watch the rest of it yesterday, and my timeshift expired T__-T I was only up to about 40 min =/ out of an hour 35 min...ah well. I was just up to Miichan and Kettaro-tachi...but I guess I''m not TOO bothered, since I got to see Clear/Dasoku/Pokota/Saiya -biased- XDDD I have to admit, Clear isn't an ikemen, but he's so shyly sweet seeming ^^ And I still adore his voice. =) I'm just worried that there might be hateful people commenting on Clear now that he has revealed his face =/ But it's all good Clear, you're still adorable XDD
So I'm sad I didn't get to see the end or hear Kettaro/Rapbeat/Miichan/Golden Bomber. but ...ah well =/ XDD
