Was watching a recording of Matsui's injury from last May, which was incredibly stupid of me because you can see the hand just flop from the wrist down and it's disturbing and I had to close the window before I started crying.

So, classes have started. I have not managed to get much done from my list over vacation, probably because I was working on ( Read more... )

So I hope everyone had (or is having) a happy Chrismakwanzakah. I had a relatively normal one. Christmas party with family, Cranium with cousins, and multi-player video games. We did add a new thing: the Christmas prank call. Imagine, getting a call Christmas night saying, "Hello, this is Mary from Trojan. We're currently having a special Christmas ( Read more... )

Well, the semester ended for me officially at 6:10PM Thursday night when I turned in my final final exam. It was my easy one, and I hope to get 100% on it. I might've made some stupid mistake or other that would cost me that, but I'll be happy with my grade in that class as I'm basically guaranteed an A. My other grades are not as fortunate, and I ( Read more... )

Sitting at home right now and I'm bored out of my mind. These days, when i'm not doing schoolwork, it seems like I can't find anything interesting to do. I don't want to look for fanfiction (though if some good stuff was handed to me, I'd read it...maybe). I don't have any new books to read. I have no movies I want to watch that I can watch at home ( Read more... )

Dude! Bridge to Terabithia is becoming a movie!!! And there's a new East of Eden movie coming out!!! Don't you just love it when your favorite childhood novels become movies??? ::is excited::

Bwahahahaha. By tomorrow at this time, three of four projects will be completely done. ::is even more excited:: And classes will be over. I rule you, school.

Random Fact #27: I don't get what the big deal was with Brokeback Mountain.

It was a nice enough movie, but I thought it was pretty ordinary. I did like the end with the shirts. That part makes my eyes water (and, surprisingly, more than once. I watched it on HBO last night, and my eyes watered like they did the first time. Wasn't really expecting ( Read more... )

Random Fact #26: I had one lined up, but I forgot it. ::thinks back to the bookstore when I thought it up:: Oh, right. If I had to choose a non-residential place to live, it would be a bookstore.

Seriously. I could spend forever in a bookstore. So much to do. It'd be fantastic. The manga. The novels. And now, even the music and movies (though I ( Read more... )

Random Fact #7: My pants size fluctuates between 1 and 5.

It depends a lot on where the pants are from. Like I have size 2 jeans from Old Navy and Express that are too big on me, but I have size 5 Mudd jeans that I need to squeeze into.

And sometimes the same pair of pants will not fit the same every time. I guess that depends on whether I've been ( Read more... )

Bwahahahahaha. You thought you had me, hotmail. But I've managed to conquer you. YOU CAN'T SCARE ME ANYMORE.

(Translation: I finally sorted, read, or deleted my 1300 unread messages. It's down to 400.)

Lady Luck is a cruel cruel taskmaster.

So, today was a bad day. I failed my last final (though I'd always known I'd fail this one), the Yankees lost to Boston, of all teams, my Hideki-san got injured and needs surgery and will not be playing for at least a month and has his consecutive games streak ended, and to top it all off, Yakitate!! Japan got ( Read more... )
