Ahh, I finally got a tablet
now maybe I can draw better.
And I keep forgetting to update again :’D Sorry about that. Actually, a lot of things have been happening lately.
A week ago, I was in tennis camp. I’m planning on joining the tennis team at school this year, so we spent $300 for 5 days of training. Um, it was pretty expensive, but I learned a lot I think. I can finally play a game at least (and I sometimes win :’D)
However, it was super tiring, and my body hurts every single day. …but over all it was pretty fun lol.
This week, I just rested at home pretty much. My mom had surgery yesterday so I stayed at my friend’s house and played guitar hero all night XD We didn’t sleep until…1 AM
But yeah, woke up with a headache this morning hehehe…
Anyway, back to today, my tablet finally arrived :’) After these 3 years of waiting, I’ve finally got one! It’s a Bamboo fun medium and works so perfectly <3 I'm still not really used to it just yet, so I'll probably be practicing a lot. Maybe I'll finally be a better artist soon.
Well, hopefully I'll remember to update sooner this time. See you until then.
Summer is here! May 22, 2009

Ah, how I waited for this day! The first day of summer is finally here :3
Yesterday was also a half day, and some of my friends came over for a party.
It didn’t end well….but it was still fun overall :’D I’ll miss everyone!
Also, I’m taking a few AP classes next year, so I’ll still have homework…a ton of homework….;w; how cruel…
But besides that, I’M FREE!!!
Totally can’t wait to draw again! My skills are getting kinda rusty now lol >w< It's been forever since I've worked on a personal project srsly D: I'll need to catch up now. Hmm…I think I'll just draw after I finish this update XD
Oh, and I'll also be waiting for my report card….DO NOT WANT!
I thought I did well on my exams, but I'm never sure D: Argh, it makes me worried!
-prays for the best-
…
So then, that's all of my ranting for now XD; See you guys soon I hope!
Violin Recital May 9, 2009

Arrrghh
I am so happy that my violin recital is finally!
-sigh- I’ve been working on a piece for a while now, but I’m always messing up when I get nervous. Well this time, it’s in front of a lot of people…so I got really nervous.
God, I tried to stay calm and focus on my music, but it was like….impossible to do! For some reason, I kept thinking random thoughts while I was playing, like the lunch menu at school or something.
Fortunately, I only made one really small mistake throughout the whole piece. My piece was also pretty fast, so at least I was finished faster. =w=;; Still, I do not want to do that again (but I will have to at next year’s recital TwT).
Well, um about the other pieces from the recital:
The first few were kinda….bad…but it was because little kids and beginners were playing them, so I guess they have an excuse. Though, from the sound of things, I think there were about 3 transitions.
The first part had the beginners, so the music was dry and awkward.
Then the second, was a bit better, though still had mistakes (I was in this one I think)
The person after me was also part of the second group I think, but after him, everyone played really well and had amazing pieces.
I’m kinda ashamed because a few of the kids that played really well were actually younger than me =^=;; I guess they must practice a lot or something.
Um, surely there aren’t too many people that are interested in my music life, so I’ll stop talking about it now XD;
Life’s still been busy over the last couple of weeks, and final exams are starting this week.
The good news is, two more weeks until summer break! I really can’t wait for it. My friend and I are throwing a party on the last day of school too, though we’re not sure who’s actually coming yet.
And the wait is over January 9, 2009

Ok, so I already knew that the grades were coming by the end of the week. When we got off the bus, I made my friend check his mailbox, and sure enough…there it is. Haha, then the rest of us ran home.
But mainly…I finally got my grades…and I have to say, they’re quite surprising. A few I could predict, but some are lol…

Going down the row we have Geography, Health, Latin, English, Algebra, and Biology.
Yes, that’s right people, I passed Latin! Even if it’s not the highest grade possible, I’m still lucky to get a passing grade.
But the other one that was surprising was my math…I mean wtf…I’ve been at the top of the class and all of a sudden this happens? I thought I did well too D’X (could it be because I took the 500 question English exam right before math and was already exhausted?) Damn it, I must be more careful!
Anyway, my quarter GPA is 4.36, Semester is 4.317, and cumulative is 4.16(?)
Not sure where the cumulative one came from. Possibly counting exams as separate final grades like it’s shown on the report card?
Wahh this is getting somewhat tense and depressing, let’s move on. Now that my biggest worry is basically over (still have to show parents), I think I can finally move on…and sleep better at night. Yeah, I’ve had trouble sleeping lately…not to mention a few nightmares per night.
OK WELL…Fruits Basket is back on onemanga.com! I can’t believe it~~ After being suspended for so long, I can finally read it on onemanga!
To tell the truth, I’ve already read the whole manga once already…oh well.
I’ve also watched the new episode of Toradora yesterday. It was very nice. I can’t wait for the new episode next week!
-rubs Taiga-
…And this week’s Kuroshitsuji was a recap…damn it.
So to wrap it up, these few days were either pretty good…or horrible as hell.

Well as it turned out, today was actually the first day of the new school semester. (About Monday, I was too busy playing Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts lol)
So um, today wasn’t all that bad. I found out my scores for Geography and I’m..pretty content…kinda-ish. We still haven’t gotten the total scores for all the other classes though. I’m just glad I didn’t get kicked out of Latin 2 honors yet lol. Speaking of Latin, um we actually got back half of our exam which was the written part. Oh my god…
Now I kinda want to get kicked out so that I won’t have to suffer for the rest of the year.
Honestly, it was that bad. I also know that I did even worse on the multiple choice section…
Um yeah, there is a curve, but I doubt it’ll help me that much.
Hopefully my final average won’t be…too bad…just an acceptable score that colleges might pardon while looking through my records….*gulp*
Um, I got the highest grade in math again (tied with someone else), but that doesn’t include our exam score actually. That’s what I’m worried about the most. I think I did pretty well on that since I knew what I was doing. However, because it’s me, I know I must have made a few careless mistakes along the way.
I think Health (incredibly easy) and Biology might be good too. Our teachers said that the report cards will arrive later this week. So let’s see, I must start thinking of some excuse for that Latin grade…and perhaps a few more if I’m just really clumsy with exams.
Please wish me luck guys lol
And have a great new whateverisnewtoyouthing…
And don’t drink and drive!
Good bye Winter Break January 2, 2009

Hey guys!
Updating a little bit earlier tonight just in case I run out of time later 8D
So yup, my winter break is pretty much over. Tomorrow and Sunday I’m not sure about just yet. We might go somewhere (but I doubt it lol).
Anyway, I kinda spent the last two or three days of my break playing Final Fantasy 1 |D;;; But at least I almost have it beat. Just one more boss to go! I also have Final Fantasy 2 after that, though I’m sure I won’t have time to finish it. School’s starting on Monday. (*cry* *cry* *sob* *sob*)
Yesterday was primarily shopping. We woke up pretty late, so the buffet that we went to was actually our brunch XD Afterward, we went shoe shopping. I’m not a big fan of shopping actually, so I was bored to death.
Other than that, I don’t think much happened yesterday :/
Also, a few days ago I completed
Re EL: Never looking back by ~starlacyi on deviantART
to compare against
Elfen Lied: Never looking back by ~starlacyi on deviantART
which is the picture that I drew one year before. I guess I kinda improved some over the past year right? It’s far from perfection, but I’ll keep working!
My base picture is still in progress |D;; I have it drawn, but it’s a watercolor. Still trying to paint it I’m afraid lol :’D
Anyway, hope you guys had a wonderful break (or not). Also hoping your 2009 is going well so far. Mine’s been kinda meh…since nothing happened after all. You guys must have more excitement in your lives right? D:
P.S. the pictures are fanarts of Elfen Lied. I recommend it to the more mature viewers since this show contains gorn. (you can figure out what that means)

Seems like I haven’t updated in a day or two. Sorry about that lol. I guess you could say that I’ve been busy (even though I spend most of my day surfing the internet)…Well I’ve been really distracted ok? XD
But still, there hasn’t been anything too interesting to talk about that happened in the past few days anyway.
However, Today is the last day of the year
It’ll only be 5 minutes until the new years here actually.
I know that the majority of you have already had your year reset right? XD
Well, HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE!
Who knows what 2009 is going to have for us.
Hopefully it’ll be a great year! (because I know I’ll probably need it since my report card might not have good results to show D’:…)
Ok, 2 minutes until midnight as of now. See you all in 2009!
Kusu-filled day December 28, 2008

Last night’s party was awesome. There was a ton of a great food (but the main course was so spicy, I couldn’t eat it XD). Someone also brought there dog, and it was really cute. I think the other kid (about the age of 5) got scared when it ran after her and her stuffed toy…
Anyway, I got bored when everyone started singing karaoke (I can’t sing lol), so I sneaked online for a while. I started talking to my friend and it eventually led to a discussion about Kusuriuri w< Waa I’m gonna start drawing him a ton now *A*

I know it’s a bit late, but whatever
*A* He’s just so awesome~
So back on track, if any of you who happened to come across this blog are into anime, especially those who love mysteries/supernatural/or already pulled in by Kusu -with a touch of horror to the side-, I say go check Mononoke out today! (and go rewatch it if you’ve already seen it lololol -shot-)
Gonna be busy today December 27, 2008

Lol had to go all of a sudden (internet breakage) so I couldn’t update yesterday night.
Nothing really happened yesterday anyway. However, I must say that that was the worst lunch I’ve ever had.
The best thing that happened yesterday was the arrival of Kuroshitsuji ep 9/10 subs
But moving onto today’s stuff…
We’re having a party later on this evening, so we spent the first half of the day cleaning the house. I discovered that I have a very bad habit of sleeping lol. All my bedsheets are like…off of the bed and stuff.
It’s about an hour after we finished cleaning now. Not sure if I have anything else to say at the moment XD Hopefully, I’ll have something worth updating after the party!
Love this video so much <3

Hope everyone had a wonderful christmas or whatever they celebrate XD
I really don’t celebrate anything on this day, but it was still an awesome day. X3 One of the best Christmas’s ever I think.
I forgot when, but one of the first wonderful things that happened today was the completion of one of the big projects I was working on.

It could still use some work, and it can definitely get a better background, but what can I say, I’m not that good yet. X<
Then, I found out that the new episode of Kuroshitsuji is finally out. Why is this so awesome? Because after all these weeks of filler (even though some of the filler wasn’t so bad), it’s finally back to canon!

Actually, Soma and Agni aren’t my personal favorites, but I do love that arc a lot. It also means that we’re getting a little bit closer to the circus arc <3
Also, Toradora was subbed X3 This episode is so epic. I feel like the anime is getting better and better with every episode! Taiga looked very pretty in that angel dress thing lol. I just loved how Ryuuji and Minorin got back together. The clapping scene was so cute too :’D

-cough-Taiga’s dad is such an asshole-cough-
Also did I mention that a new Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged is out?
It’s quite hilarious (as expected) XD
Last…but certainly not least….
Oh god, this is too hilarious! (The Gurren Lagann club has a translation for this somewhere in the comments!)
Anyway, I’m going to work with my parents tomorrow so we can go somewhere to eat for lunch. That’s why I’m updating so early, because I need to get to bed earlier XD Well then, good night/morning/etc everyone!
