Summer break and such as.

LOL TWO MONTHS SINCE THE LAST ENTRY

And...

It's been a month since school has ended and everything has been uneventful so far. I'm still working on losing weight but I'm improving everyday. I finally started playing tennis again too! My coach from high school called and I NEVER turn down tennis, bbz. It's too bad I never played when I was in Reno, though. I swear it's been like a year since I last played and I'm sooooo rusty. My forehand and backhand seem fine but my serving is really bad. I keep hitting everything out. XD

Anyways, I'm still pretty far off from my main goal but it's a continuing process. I'm optimistic. ^^

RANDOM STUFF ~ELECTRIC BOOGALOO~
- So I've been playing Persona 4 a lot lately and I fused that persona that looks like a penis on wheels. I think it's called Mara and it's GROSSSSSSSS. The developers at Atlus are fucked up.
- I'm trying to upload this video and send it as an attachment but it's way too damn big. 4 minutes and 70 MB? GTFO
- Update: Ugh, it timed out. The file is just way too large.
- I love stan wars at ONTD. <3
- Final Fantasy XIV is a fucking MMO. Now I know which bullshit I WON'T be playing. I didn't even touch XI or try to bother with it.

Shock and awe, y'all!

Good morning, bbz!
So I got my grade back on my response essay for Core Humanities class...and I got a 20/20! I am really surprised, actually. My discussion section leader always seemed like a hardass when it came to grading, but he's pretty nice at the same time. Here's his comment:

20/20
The best one I've seen. What didn't you talk more in class?

Good question! XD
The main reason is that ~I'm shy~ and I'm afraid of saying something stupid. lol
I also feel like I never have enough to say when it comes to the topic we're discussing too. In this case, it was Boethius and his book The Consolation of Philosophy.
I've never liked talking in front of other people in a setting like that anyway. There's always the suspicion that someone is going to want to debate with me and I'll just be like "OK YOU WIN LOL".

Random Stuff!
- I've lost some weight! YAYAYAYA~ Let's have a potluck!
- I am totally addicted to Joy by BONNIE PINK. I can't wait for her new album now.
- I finished reading Prey by Michael Crichton. GREAT BOOK, TBH. It's very dramatic and an entertaining read.
- The next book I want to read is Angels & Demons by Dan Brown.
- The new video for BoA's I Did It For Love is hot. <3 the dancing.
- I need to get more sleep. idk why I've been waking up so early lately.
- I'm nervous about what I got on my latest math test. It was the hardest one so far.

BoA

*sigh*

This happened around last week but I didn't feel like talking about it until now. When I called my mom to wish her a happy birthday, she said that one of our dogs passed away: our female bull terrier, Maggie. T_T

My parents put her to sleep about a week after spring ended. She was suffering from kidney disease and I know that was the best thing to do, but I honestly couldn't handle it if I was there. In a way, I was glad that I was in Reno when it happened because it would have broken my heart and the last experience I had was not so good.

I'll miss her very much but I can take solace in that we still have 2 healthy dogs left: the other bull terrier named Buddha and our newest, a old English bulldog named Patches. <3

~~~

Well, everything else has been good. I've been dieting this past week and I already feel my appetite waning (that's a good thing, right?). I've been trying to exercise in my room as well...since I don't have a gym membership. lol My options are kind of limited but since the weather has been getting better, it's good to run outside. It snowed last night though.

I got a B on my last planetary astronomy test too! I failed the last one. D<

~*~SMOLDERING TOPAZ~*~ + OTHER DEVELOPMENTS

Spring break has been over for about a week and it feels good to be back at the university! I also did some cleaning in my dorm too. My roommate's side is still messy as hell though.

Before I went back, I watched Twilight (or Twatlight / Twilulz, etc). DON'T JUDGE ME, JERKS. D<
Hmm...yes, the movie was LULZ, but it wasn't as terrible as I thought it would be. I tried to have an open mind while watching it and I thought the movie wasn't that bad.

Things That Me Laugh
- My mom rented it thinking it was a horror movie.
- Kristen Stewart's "acting" / mumbling / stuttering / fidgeting / etc.
- AWKWARD STARING 24/7
- "You better hold on tight spider monkey!"
- The baseball scene = WHAT.
- THE SPARKLING SCENE. NO NO NO ♪ *sings Ayu's Sparkle* THIS IS THE SKIN OF A KILLAH.

Reedeming Factors
- Robert Pattinson is hot. He kind of saved the movie for me. YOU BETTER WATCH OUT K-SAN.
- That's it.
- .GIFS PLZ

I guess you can say that I am ~dazzled~ and such as, but yeah, don't wanna be a part of the fandom. lol
I'm reading the book online too. You think I'm gonna actually buy it? <3

In other news.
OMG WTF MELODY. AND MIYAVI GOT MARRIED AND NOW SHE'S PREGNANT. GET OUT RIGHT NOW. Yeah, I'm really surprised but I wish them the best of luck. Most. Mismatched. Couple. Ever.

BLING BLING BLING

BABY ALL I WANT IS THAT BLING BLING BLING
AND YOUR CAR CAR CAR
MOTTO BLING BLING BLING

^ Koda Kumi is a gold digger! ;D

President's Day weekend is over and it is good to be back at the dorms! I can only tolerate so much from my parents at the moment. lol

Plus, I had to file for my taxes and that took forever. What a hassle.

The Main Reason For This Journey Entry Of Course!
- The 1 year anniversary since my blog's "relaunch" is coming soon! PAH-TAY.
- I love BoA, but the cover for the American release of her English album kind of fail. At least it'll be better than anything Utada craps out.
- I have rekindled my long lost love for wyolica! It's mainly because I thought they broke up and stuff, but their new mini-album Balcony is really good so I'm happy that they're back.
- I regret spending 16 bucks on a copy of Bushido Blade. That game is so fucking boring.
- Shiina (G)Ringo still sucks!
- Team Rihanna.
- I have a math test tomorrow. Nooooooooooo.

IT'S BACK?!?

Heyyyy.

Um, well, it's like, you see....I've been totally neglecting my LJ these past few months. Ugh, I don't want to talk about what happened last semester though. It was pretty bad. haha

Anyway, spring semester is here again and I'm starting fresh...EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT I AM SICK...AGAIN. DDD<
And NO, I don't have SARS or Bird Flu. lmao
Whatever it is, it seems to be spreading.

Anyway, I just wanted to say that I'll be posting more often!

RANDOM THOUGHTS: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO
- For the first time in like ~ever~, I am not excited for something Utada related. Ugh, everything about her new English album turns me off. Come Back To Me SUCKS and I expect more generic shit thanks the producers she's working with.
- However.......TEAM BoA TEAM BoA TEAM BoA TEAM BoA TEAM BoA.
- Koda Kumi's latest album TRICK is fucking amazing. If you didn't like it, I suggest you leave. <3
- Persona 4 is awesome! PLAY IT NOW OR GET THROWN INTO A TV.
- last.fm is still full of crazy people and the craziness seems to have elevated thanks to their "totally awesome and helpful" auto-correct and spelling function. What a bunch of bullshit. lol

ARGH! It's fall semester already.

9 weeks later...

Hey, I'm a sophomore at UNR now! I'm now staying at the much nicer Nye Hall and my roommate is actually a pretty nice guy. Thank goodness for that. This semester will be an even bigger challenge than before. Besides dealing with 17 credits, I really need to find a job on campus or somewhere in downtown Reno. It's actually harder than I thought to get one but I'll keep on sending in those applications. My dad told me that he wouldn't send over a TV (for the video games of course!) until I got a job...but I was like "fuck that" and bought my own TV for 50 bucks at a local pawn shop.

My classes are a little more difficult too...but I only worry about Core Humanities 202 and Math 128 at the moment. As most of my friends and family know, math is by far my worst subject. Even though I passed Math 126 with a B+ in the spring, it was a total fluke. I wasn't expecting to do so well. XD

Well...I think I'll be updating this blog more often. haha

Random stuff!
- I STILL DON'T HAVE A DIGITAL CAMERA. D<
- Yay, Do As Infinity is reuniting! They shouldn't have "disbanded" in the first place. I was getting so tired of Tomiko "Soccer Mom" Van's boring cover songs.
- I bought Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Sage a week ago and I really like it so far. What a mindfuck of a game. XD But I'm stuck on a boss right now. argh
- Tomb Raider: Underworld is coming out in November! ME WANT NOW.
- WHY SO FIERCE, AMI SUZUKI?!?!?!!?
- Last but not least...melody. isn't going to host J-MELO anymore! Instead you get some cholas named May J. and Shanti taking her place. Laaaaaaaaaaame.

One of my mom's rich-ass friends is going to throw a party for her son at the freaking MANDALAY BAY casino. My parents and I will be staying at the hotel there for 2 days and then after we're going down to Arizona for the Grand Canyon. I've never been there before so I'm looking forward to it.

OMGZ BBZ I'M SO EXCITED

I am totes bringing my laptop and new digital camera for the trip. I plan on turning this LJ into a photoblog too! =O

Roommates suck.

I don't normally complain about things, but my roomate has been a complete asshole lately. There are several things about him that I really dislike including:
* Arguing with his stupid girlfriend in the middle of the night and I've been losing sleep because of it. His girlfriend seems like a total bitch anyway just listening to his conversations, but he's no different either.
* His excessive snoring. SUFFOCATE PLZ
* He blares his rap music. That shit = noise You don't see me blaring teh J-pop because that's just plain annoying.
* He has the nerve to get mad at ME for closing the door in the middle of the night after he opens it. Seriously, who the fuck leaves the door open at a DORM in the MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT? Especially with all the bad shit happening around UNR recently, I'm a teensy bit paranoid.
* He drinks.

I can't wait for this semester to be over so I never have to see him again. I don't know, just seeing his face annoys me now.

Some positive stuff:
- Yay, I got a C on my last math test! Hey, I thought I was gonna fail it honestly. XD
- omgz Perfume's new album is SEX. GAME = brb got some business to do
- Dragon Quest VIII is a tough game. I'm about to enter the final dungeon and is level 39 acceptable? =x
- I really like Leona Lewis's "Bleeding Love"...haters to the left.

It's THe WeekenD *doot doot doot*

I feel procrastination kicking in...and I have a lot of stuff to do this weekend. The final draft of that TTLY AZN SIAMESE CAT essay is due on Tuesday, I have a sociology midterm to study for, and there's some nerdy reading assignment for computer science. Sorry bbz, that was a little mean (idk being pessimistic is never good).

It seems like everyone has been getting sick lately, including my parents. SERVEZ Y'ALLZ RITE CUZ I GOTZ SICKU ON MAI WINTER BREAK D< j/k j/k lulz
I called my mom today, she said that she's doing better. :3

Super Happy Random All Your Bases Are Belong To Us TAIMU:
- Leah Dizon's new promo pics are haaaaawt. Can't wait for Love Paradox.
- Calm down, Utada Hikaru fans. The new single is selling bad for a reason (the album's out in a month). <3
- HOLLYWOOD IS MAKING AN AKIRA LIVE ACTION MOVIE?!?!??! FAIL x
- I like 90s music. *shot*
- I started a new file of Dark Cloud 2 like a week ago. It's such a great game, but I can't get over how redundant the dialogue is. Replaying this time is definitely the biggest reason why I'm putting "certain things" off. DUN TELL PARENTZ PLZ

Spring semester! >:O

Today was officially my first day of spring semester here at UNR. I feel like I'm going to have a much more difficult time, academic-wise. English 102 looks like it's going to kick my ass and that's the class I'm most worried about. I'm still optimistic though. :) I have to do good, not just for my mom and dad's sake, but for my future as well. That sounded cheesy, but it's true. XD No more slacking off like I did in the fall!

Random stuff for today:
- WTFFFFFF!?!?! Heath Leadger is dead...R.I.P. ;_; I wasn't a big fan, but he was a good actor.
- I'm addicted to Koda Kumi's latest single "anytime". It's so sweet. <3
- I WANT FFXIII NAO!! Those new magazine scans are freaking awesome.
- My 2 gig iPod is almost full. MOAR GIGZ PLZ LOLOL
- People on last.fm are CRAZY.

Grades... *cough*

Um, well...I got Bs for my anthropology, geography, and music appreciation classes, but for math...X_X

D-

LMAO!

I really do hate math, but it seems that I'm going into the normal calculus in the spring. It hasn't been taken off my spring course schedule. I wonder why since you need a C- to advance into the next higher up class...

Other stuff:
- I've been back home for a week and I got SICK! My horrible sore throat is gone, but now I've developed a bad cough. Bring on the drugs! XD
- I'm replaying Final Fantasy X-2 and loooooooooving it. I still enjoy the game to this day.
- A late Merry Christmas to everyone! Blah blah blah I didn't get a digital camera.
- I didn't know that Maki Goto was vogueing in the SOME BOYS! TOUCH PV. Way to go, Madonna. LOL
- OMG!!! My J-pop review blog just reached A MILLION hits! AHHHHH!!
- My favorite channel on TV is officially VH1. I love their retrospective I Love the 70s/80s/90s shows...and the trashy reality shows.
- The covers of Ami Suzuki's new album DOLCE are hot hot hot! Here's the CD-only cover which is my favorite:

Phew!

So I talked with my advisor today and changed my major from computer science to undecided. My new schedule for the spring semester worked out really good! Even though I didn't get some of the classes I really wanted, I'm still very glad at how everything turned out. I feel very relieved. Here are the 5 classes I will be talking next semester:

* Composition II
* Pre-calculus II
* Stellar Astronomy
* Intro to Computing
* Intro to Sociology

What I really wanted was First Year Japanese I and Physical Anthropology, but there's always next fall.

Random stuff:
- It's finals week! AHHHHHHHHH!
- Tomorrow's my birthday! I turn 19.
- Listening to ZARD's new single makes me feel sad.
- So many J-pop artists are releasing new material in February! Koda Kumi, BoA, Hitomi Shimatani, and Ami Suzuki to name a few...

BONNIE PINK

I can't help but fall again and again...

Hey everyone! I haven't posted any song lyrics in a while so I decided to do it. This song is called Again and Again and it's performed by one of my favorite up-and-coming singers, Leah Dizon. This song is mostly in English with a little Japanese in the chorus (I'll put that in italics). I really like this song because it shows feelings of helplessness and unrequited love. You can find it as the final track on her debut album Destiny Line.

~~~

Someday we'll run away, so far away, love
Until this weight just dissipates, you said
But the pain grows deeper and the distance wider
It's getting harder but my love grows stronger

Do I really know? kimi no koto Darling?
matteru no matteru no Calling
Do I really know? kimi no koto Darling?
matteru no matteru no Calling

I can't help but fall again and again

When all I have is a tired smile to give
Should I set you free or remain a burden?
The loneliness, my love I cannot protect
nee How much longer can I pretend I'm stronger?

Have you ever known? kodoku na no Darling?
wakatteru no wakatteru no Longing
Have you ever known? kodoku na no Darling?
wakatteru no wakatteru no Longing

But despite it all, I fall and I fall
But despite it all, I fall and I fall

Do I really know? kimi no koto Darling?
matteru no matteru no Calling
Do I really know? kimi no koto Darling?
matteru no matteru no Calling

I can't help but fall again and again
But I can't help but fall again and again

~~~

Some random things:
- A certain admin at a certain Utada Hikaru forum I mod at wants me to permanently leave because he apparently can't stand me. omgz drama bbz
- My blog just passed 900,000 hits! It's getting closer to the big million. :OO
- Final exams are coming soon...
- I'm going to watch an opera tomorrow for music appreciation class.
- Mai Kuraki is awesome!!
- I'm kind of looking forward to seeing Ami Suzuki and Aly & AJ sing Potential Breakup Song together at MusicJapan next week.

Ai no Uta?!

I officially have 5 songs called Ai no Uta on my comp. XD

One from Hitomi Shimatani, Koda Kumi, Do As Infinity, Every Little Thing, and Angela Aki. I listened to each song in a row and last.fm scrobbled it (I hate how they screwed up the titles on some of them because I'm correct title whore ;DD). Here's a screencap...



I couldn't tell you which one is my favorite because they're all really good.

On a random note: I also have 4 songs called Kiseki (from Angela Aki, BoA, Koda Kumi, and Suga Shikao).

Thanksgiving break starts on Thursday and I'll be leaving for home tomorrow night. I seriously can't wait because I need a break from college and finals are coming soon. =x

Going back home...

I'll be going back home to Fallon, which is like an hour and a half drive from Reno, for the weekend. I need a break from the crummy dorm that I live in right now. Plus, midterms are next week. D:

Anywhoo, there was a graphics competition at the Utada Hikaru forum that I go to and...I actually tried to participate. *gasp*
Here's the sig I made (it didn't win though XD):

The pictures that we had to use we're of Leah Dizon, who I absolutely love. Destiny Line rocks! <3
I sent her a message at her official website, but nothing happened. I said I was from Nevada just like her so I thought it would get her attention if she ever were to read it. Guess not. ;_;

And finally...Happy Nevada Day (to those who live in Nevada of course). ^^

Oh LAWD

Um, I pretty much bombed that math test. I got an F. D:

Anyway, I was chatting with a good friend on MSN, and we started discussing Angela Aki's nose again...

We're both huge fans of Angela Aki, but we like to make fun of her too, especially that giant nose of hers. It's just so cute that I wanna punch it! <3

But right after that, we got into a SERIOUS ARGUMENT...using the draw tool. ;DD

It really made my day after bombing that test. See you guys later!

I think I did really bad on my first math exam. My mind just blanked and I couldn't figure out about 1/4 of the problems. I guess I should pay more attention in class and study, huh? ;DD

I'm shooting for a D+ to a C on this test... *sucks at math*

This lone castle

Everybody has feelings of frustration and sometimes the desire to be noticed by others. BONNIE PINK, one of my favorite singers of all time, has beautifully expressed these feelings in her English song Building A Castle. For those who are interested, the song is track 3 on her fifth studio album Just a Girl.

~~~

No matter how much I cry, it won't stop
No matter how hard I grind my teeth in my frustration
No matter how loud I scream, it won't be heard
It just blows out silently

What do I get from building a castle?
What do I get from building a castle?
...This lone castle

I take a bath to ease my tensity in the end
I make a cup of jasmine tea by myself to calm me down
I wonder if money can me to sleep better one day
After the prize, fame, and all that jazz

What do I get from building a castle?
What do I get from building a castle?
...This lone castle

They tell me to hurt myself deeper and deeper
They don't know what it's like to stay away from insanity
They tell me, they tell me to go as far as I can
So I sing to be understood 'til they listen to me
So I sing to be understood 'til they listen to me
So I sing to be understood 'til they listen to me
So I sing to be understood 'til they listen to me
