Illness~
*Hack* *Cough* *Sputter* So I have no school this week, but does that mean a vacation? Nope! Between the numerous exams I've had this week (4) I've also been virus-ridden since Wednesday of last week. No luck, huh? I started coming down with it on the 20/21st or so, and I was mostly recovered as of Wednesday. However, yesterday afternoon during the Physics provincial I started to get sick, and get sick bad. I thought it was just nerves -I mean, a three hour test can really do that to a person- but no, once I got home I went straight to bed and between fever and nausea, I'm thankful that I didn't have the engery to stay awake any longer. I'm doing better now though, which is good. I think its the whoppin 16 hours of sleep I got last night. Yeah. I mostly slept, which is good, and I slept pretty soundly once mom gave me medication. I've had a shower now and feel much better, though I need to go to school today and get a sheet signed then fax in my TRIUMF application. I can't wait~ I really want to spend my summer vacation working at TRIUMF. I hope I get accepted!

Wow
Last updated 46 weeks ago, maybe I should wait a bit and make it 52...? Nah. Not for me :P My life in short... study study study. Japanese 12 is long over now, but it was perhaps the best course I have ever taken in my life, really! I learned so much, it was incredible. At the end of semester I was able to pick up a Japanese volume of Black Jack and just start reading, no dictionary or anything... it was incredible. Not so much now, I've forgotten a lot, but I still remember most of the speaking and grammar. My vocabulary has just fallen through the floor, should get around to practicing again! Otherwise, Chris and I have broken up. After one year and ten months, it was time to end the relationship. We weren't compatable in a lot of ways, and emotionally, I wasn't there for her a lot of the time. School comes before the people in my life almost constantly, mostly because I've dedicated the past 12 years of my life to school and its almost over, so I might as well finish it to the best of my abilities. The real ending of the relationship was when I discovered that she had been sleeping around with boys. That sorta... yeah. I'm okay, though. C'est la vie, I hope the best for her in everything she does. We all have to find our way somehow, hers is simply different than mine. School-wise, I'm doing much better this semester than I did all of last year. Something to do with only three classes, I think. First period off [yaysleep] and second period is Physics 12. Biology 12 in period 3 and Lunch for period 4. Law in period 5, then clubs or work or gym after school. I love my classes, for the most part. Biology is awesome, Law is great save for my classmates, and Physics is straightforward and understandable. Work is great, too. Work is probably the highlight of my week. I love my job, I never thought an occupation could be this awesome. I engrave things. Glass, metal, and plastic. I can take it and write your name in it. Or sentences, and pictures. Its awesome, lots and lots and lots of fun. I'm good at it, too, for the most part. Working with Giftmas customers... well, it's my first retail giftmas, there've been quite a few growing pains along the way as far as that's considered, but really. For my first job, I'm not flipping burgers, and my manager is awesome. Life is good. Oh, and its snowing! Lots of it! I hope school doesn't get cancelled, I have tests this week like mad. Chances are it won't be, but better safe than sorry. It's worth hoping. We're working on the nervous system in Biology, get to dissect a brain tomorrow in class. Gonna be awesome! So yes, almost a year, and overall, life is good. I hope its the same for every one of you. May your Winter Solstice be bright, your Giftmas plentiful and your New Years be joyous~!

Siiigh, what's up, people? :D I am proud to announce that I survived this semester! Whoohoo! My grades dropped by quite a bit, but I'm not dead yet, which is good :) My sanity leaves much to be questioned, though. I am quite sure of myself when I say that I'm as nutty as trail mix. Ah well, keeps me going, eh~? This next semester looks like more fun. I have English and Socials in the morning (a far cry from Physics and Chem) with Liz and a school-provided laptop, followed by Japanese 12 (going to finish it off this year) and then lunch. In the last block I'm doing an independent study of Drafting 12, because there were no free blocks and I needed to get it in this year or else I wont graduate on time (Need a fine art/applied skill). All of this, plus I'm re-taking Math 12. I passed, a C+ 69% (I can see my girlfriend snickering at this percentage) but I need 90%+ to get into McGill. It's an online course, so I sit in on a lesson, do the work, write the exam, and I should be okay. I understand am am capable of everything, I just had too much on my plate this semester. Ah well, there's no shame in re-taking a course :3 Also, I've become addicted to Role-Playing. AGAIN. No kidding. I spend all my online time with a window open to some of My Gaia Guilds. At first my writing was improving, but recently it's taken a turn for the worst. It's -really- bad now, since I tried to cut down on how much I write. Quality over quantity, right? That was the idea. It failed, and I lost both :( Ah well. My character is a serial-killer in Los Angeles. Vampire. I should post some of her murders, I love writing them. They're very therapeutic :) As well, there's snow -everywhere-. It's actually really pretty though, I've missed the white powder. I didn't miss having to walk though it, but I can live with that. After the Provincial, if I don't decide to head home and RP some more/go out with people, I might pull out the sled and visit the Church parking lot. We have some pretty wicked hills there, and there was a snow day today so the kids have made them perfect for sledding. I can't think of much more right now. I have a provincial exam tomorrow, Math 12. Wish me luck! Current Mood: giddyCurrent Music: Not Gonna get us - Tatu | | Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007 | | 4:27 pm |
Back!
Well, long time no post! Again! Gaah... Anyhow, Happy Wednesday. My summer was awesome, I spent time in Alberta driving Quads and Dirtbikes through the woods and unexplored areas, I went to Qualicum with Aika and went to Whistler for the first time with her as well, generally had an awesome time. Anime Evolution was awesome, bought lots of stuff, and now I am thus broke. Generally had a good time, for my second to last summer! Good Gawd, I graduate in two years. The truth is crashing down on me. The world I've known for my entire memorable life is almost at an end, I'm slightly freaking out about it too. This Friday is my birthday! 16, at last. I was... 12 when I started this journal? And I updated regularly for two years or so, but then sorta... stopped xD It's also my 9 month anniversary with Chris~ First base still. Gawd, I want in her pants. Writer's Society today was interesting, we played the 'Dialog Game'. It 3-4 people taking on characters and somebody being a narrator. The narrator tells a story and gives them actions, the people make their own dialog fitting the scene the narrator has given. Hilarity Ensues. First round I was the narrator telling the story of a Baseball champ, his girlfriend, his coach, and his stalker. Second round I was a crazy Foreigner, trying to stop an Emo kid from cutting :O This Friday is also the second official meeting of Manga Club! I'm the co-leader this year, and it's sure to be awesome >D Current Mood: PeachyCurrent Music: The Constant IM's from conversations... | | Wednesday, May 9th, 2007 | | 5:38 pm |
Today is a very special day....
I'd like to take a moment and thank a very special person. She's been with me for four wonderful years now, and I feel that she doesn't get near as much recognition as she deserves. She is my character, Rhia. I get the feeling she would get more recognition if I were to actually get on with her story, but that's another day. Right now I want to thank her for being her. Any writer who's written original fiction will know what I mean when I say I want to thank her for her time with me, and her patience. She has the patience of a deity. Also when I say that I love her very much and am endlessly happy that she is here with me, even after 4 years of half-started ideas. It means a lot to me that she's stuck by my side so long, after everything I've done to her in the name of 'plot'. I drew some art for her that I'll scan and post later tonight! So here's to Four years of love, laughter, family, growth, and life. And here's to at least another fourty, if she's willing to wait! Happy Birthday, Rhia!

First Gay-bashing!
I have defeated my first Gay-Bashing! It came from one of my classmates via MSN. She's in my Planning and PE classes. She's a bit influential, so my life is going to become more difficult than normal, but that's okay. I PWND THIS GIRL. I defeated her claims that: -Gay people cannot have sex -Gay people do nothing for society -All gay people have AIDS -Gay people should be made fun of -Christianity is Anti-Gay and they hate gay people. -If you're Christian and believe that being Gay is fine, you're not Christian. Heheh. I feel powerful. I defeated all the arguments brought to me, and possibly killed her self-esteem! Whoot!

Bad day?
I really want to say thank you to Blurymind and Telemaniaka on Garbagewars. I did an the oekaki yesterday. They complimented it and said it was cute, and that I'm good at working with color. This really means a lot to me. Today has been the bad day to end all bad days (No, really. You think you've ever had a bad day? My worst fear is going to school tomorrow and having to face my classmates, or worse, someone bringing today up) and what the two of them said on the the page made me feel better, if only a little. Reading the rest of their comments on the page serve to lighten my heart a little more, too. They're really great people, very kind and very funny. I doubt they read this, but thanks guys. It really, really means a lot to me.

Thursday's slowness
Everyone has been telling me to start to listen to Blue October. They're pretty good, and I recognize one of their songs from either a fan video or the radio. I get the feeling it was on one of the Kingdom hearts videos... Also, I've had so many complaints over the week, and just today in fact. Now I'm sitting here, listening to music, and I wonder how I could have ever been unhappy. Perhaps it's the song -Fast Car by Tracy Chapman would do that to anyone. I feel so... light, open, relaxed, and overall pleasant. It's good to be alive ^-^ TaTaForNow~ Current Mood: optimisticCurrent Music: Tracy Chapman - Fast Car | | Friday, April 6th, 2007 | | 8:16 pm |
Happy Good Friday
Happy Good Friday, people. I've been a bit upset over the week, but things are better now. It's warm out -warmer than is has been all year. It feels like a lazy summer's evening when there's nothing to do but sit with friends and family, watching time flow by over comfortable conversation. I love moments like these. After posting this, I'm going to go sit on the balcony and chat with my father and his girlfriend while sipping wine, watch the city horizon twinkle with lights under a dark hazy city sky. Life is good. Happy Easter :) May your Turkey be Delicious! Current Mood: satisfiedCurrent Music: Norah Jones - Be Here to Love me | | Monday, April 2nd, 2007 | | 8:03 pm |
Oiy...
I'm all anxious right now, and somewhat upset... the weekend was okay, definatley work-full. That's all I've been doing recently, this week is going to be so stressful... I want to participate in the Dragon Boat Club, but I dont think I can. No time, no time. Short week today, Happy Early Easter! ( Why can't I keep things? )I'm crying here. Why am I not allowed to have anything nice? Does everything have to dissapear? This has gone beyond regular scatterbrainedness. Even when I'm at my most watchful, things dissapear. Nobody says anything. It's just... not fair. Really. It's not fair. Current Mood: WHY?Current Music: Weapon of Choice - FatboySlim | | Tuesday, March 27th, 2007 | | 7:00 am |
Whoot~
I have a date with Chris today! We're gonna go see a movie this afternoon ^^ We'll be seeing "Ghost Rider", 'cause I wanna see it and she just saw it with her brother and we can sit there and not see it together. Wait, did that come out right? I think it did Current Mood: cheerfulCurrent Music: Silence | | Saturday, March 24th, 2007 | | 11:59 pm |
Almost over...
Spring break ends as of tomorrow Evening. Why!? I feel as if I need a vacation from my vacation. At this point, almost everything has been crossed off of my calendar (As seen a few posts back) and I can tell you, I am exhausted. I am spending all of tomorrow sleeping. I'm sorry Liz, but it's rained for 24 days straight now, I think it will be raining tomorrow =P ( The week in Review )x3 Yeah. I guess the week wasn't as bad as I thought it was, it was more or less fun/interesting. I just need some 'me-time' now ^-^ Oh, and Mike is on the attack for taking over Manga Club Next year. Me and Him are the two most likely candidates, and I will be taking over Writer's Society next year anyhow. Most people would rather me than him, but we'll see how it plays out in the future. Ah well, it's 12:40am right now. Goodnight! Current Mood: happyCurrent Music: Right here, Right now -- Fatboy Slim | | Wednesday, March 21st, 2007 | | 11:47 pm |
Hellsing update!
3 Minutes to midnight, just finished what's left of Hellsing on Aut-Boti. I have this to say: Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. I finally caught up. I was at the middle of volume 8 for the longest time, simply because AUT-BOTI was updating weirdly, and I didn't want to read out of order. I sorta forgot about it for a while... and I just finished reading to the end of volume 9 now... WOW. I have shivers '___' WOW. *Continues to wander aimlessly and mumble about how amazing it was* Current Mood: Wow.Current Music: Vampires will never Hurt you - My Chemical Romance | | Saturday, March 17th, 2007 | | 2:43 pm |
Calendar for the week:
Spring Break Plans! This is just going to be a reference for me and the other people, pay no actual mind to it. All booked up for the rest of the week! Current Mood: chipperCurrent Music: Cant fight the Moonlight - Leanne Rhymes | | Friday, March 16th, 2007 | | 9:22 pm |
Spring Break's a start'n! FREEDOM! VIVE LE RESISTANCE!! I'M FREE!!!Where has the time gone? Lots to post about, such as me just registering myself for the Euclid(sp?) but first I need to post something else: I have no doubt Suzu want so make plans, as will several other people. At least one day this week will be reserved to take Liz Bike Riding (She needs to learn, so I'm'a teach'n) Other than that, Oiy! I've been limited to one hour every day on the computer by my mother, so that is enough time to... check my email and catchup on my webcomics and various forums. Ah, well. I had a whole bunch to post about, I dont remember most of it now. That's the way it tends to go, eh? Here's a few things on my mind: So yes, there's much more, but I dont want to post something too long, since this is... getting there. Ah well. *Dance* Awesome song: DJ Teisto's "As the Rush Comes", also called 'Motorcycle'. It's good. Current Mood: hyperCurrent Music: As the Rush Comes - DJ Teisto | | 9:22 pm |

Fat Jokes=Fail
Grah. I have something to rant about right now. The main idea? Someone who has been bothering me for a long time decided to be more... upfront about it. Fat Jokes. ( I swear I'm gonna... )And you guys -know- that I would not resort to violence unless it was serious. Really, really serious. I'm not violent in my actions. (Thoughts, yes. But hey, I'm a Hellsing fanatic) At this point, I don't care if I get suspended or in trouble or anything like that. It doesn't matter anymore. This has to stop and it's not getting anywhere the way it's going now, and I'm *desperate*. Yeah. Nobody bullies me. Nobody.

Oiy!
Where has the week gone? The week and a half? Time flys by so quickly, and I had nothing interesting to post about... oiy... Aaaanyhow. I went to Chris's house on Monday. Did I mention that? House was a messy, but it was cool :) Chris is coming over tomorrow! Yay! ( School Stuff )I currently have 92.3% in Math! Yaaaay~ On the weekend I taught Liz how to ride a bike (Well, we got started, she needs some work but she's capable) and I bought Imogen Heap's CD! I'm so happy ;o; I've been searching for her stuff... forever. She got nominated for a Grammy this year (Best New Artist I believe?) and all of a sudden everyone's like 'Ah! I listen to her!' ;o; It's so awesome. I feel proud to support my artists! Even better now since she had to take out a morgage on her house in order to pay for the recording/producing of the CD. x3 Other than that, it's been a slow coupl'a weeks. I got out early today, that's about the most interesting thing to happen so far... x3 Current Mood: ExhaustedCurrent Music: 30 Minutes - t.A.T.u | | Saturday, February 10th, 2007 | | 11:06 am |
x3 Good Morning~
I'll be going out to Suzu's house today. She's having 'The Turkey Dinner that is not Christmas' Tonight, 'cause she was away on vacation for such a festivity, and it's a tradition in her family to do something like that. Anywho, I got invited 'cause they consider me family. That's really nice of them ^__^ Fuu, people are coming over today to check out the house. Our Quadplex (Note: Illegal in BC) is up for sale, and there's this huge hilarious story about the guy who owns it (We just rent out the top Right corner) And... Ah! The peoples are here. Dad's having fun telling them all the horrible things about this place (And there are a lot -an accumulation of little things that get on your nerves). It's funny, 'cause the guy who actually owns the place is trying to sell off all of his properties 'cause he hasnt been declaring all of his income. He *cant* declare all of his income, 'cause he would get arrested for having Quadplex's. He's getting arrested for not declaring all of his income now, and they're investigating his accounts... hilarious.
That's about all for now, I hope that if I update at least once a week (Perferrably many times a week) I'll get back into LJ. 'cause I really like it here x3 Current Mood: cheerfulCurrent Music: Angry Angel - Imogen Heap | | Monday, February 5th, 2007 | | 2:58 pm |
Incredible Joy!
So, mom's stroke was okay. It was only a minor stroke with no permanent damage and since she's a nurse she was able to pull some strings so everything is... okay now. She's getting hypnosis Therapy to quit smoking, and the entire house is now on this anti-sugar diet. I'm gonna eat healthy no matter where I am... eheh. She's okay though, and that's what's imortant. New semester started today! My classes, though work-intensive, are pretty good. And I have even better news... ME AND CHRIS ARE GOING OUT!I'm so happy! Like, amazingly happy! *o* I'm exploding in little bubbles of joy! New Semester too! Baisic Breakdown: Start: 8AM Block A - Science 10 (1 Inch thick Textbook, Possibly a 2nd one) Block B - Socials 10 (1 Inch thick Textbook) Block C - PE Girls/Planning (PE has a 1 Inch thick Textbook for First Aid) Block D - Lunch Block E - Math 11 (2 Inch thick Textbook) End: 2:45 M/W/F 2:15 T/TH So yeah. This semester, although really hard in the work area, is going to be good in the learning and knowledge area. 'Cept Science. Cause... yeah. I wont be able to pay attention.
