Welcome to my world! Please buckle up and keep your hands and feet inside the vehicle at all times. Don't worry about emergency exits; there are none. If you wish to exit before the ride is over, you do so at your own risk. If you sustain any form of brain damage, IQ reduction, and/or psychological disorder from any of these rides, I will not be held liable. Have a nice day and enjoy your trip!

Heaven

I just spent the last 141 minutes of my life in heaven. Exactly where was this heaven, you ask? Comfortably nestled within the pixelated images of Cloud Strife, Tifa Lockheart, Kadaj, Yazoo, Lox, Sephiroth, Vincent Valentine, and the rest of the Final Fantasy VII crew, that's where! I FINALLY got around to watching the Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children DVD my sister got me for Christmas. I am so happy right now, I almost may watch it again. But I won't, because I'm going to play Ninja Gaiden II.

On another note, my mother has banned me from buying books. For how long, I don't know. But I think she's mad because I spent half of the money she gave me for D.C. on books. Manga, to be precise, which she thinks is "utter nonsense." :P

So, I'm gonna go back to my game now. I'll check in later.

Sayo,
Kimi

Inauguration

The inauguration was...cold. Extremely cold. And crowded. But worth the experience. I cried. It was moving. Our country has come so far.

But the conference? I would not experience that again if you paid me one million dollars. My body still hurts.

Day One: Buses were late to take us to U. of Maryland; False fire alarm; Didn't leave U. of Maryland until around 12 (two hours behind schedule), got to hotel at one, security check not done until 2, got to sleep around 3.

Day Two: Rise and shine at 6, jump in shower at 6:15, jump out of shower at 6:30...and cue fire alarm; Entire hotel evacuated again, to find out...false alarm, again, everybody suitably annoyed; Got my period; Went to the concert at the Lincoln Memorial, left an hour behind schedule because of the purplers; Dinner was so overcrowded, ate dinner on floor with friend.

Day Three: Bus was an hour late picking us up from the hotel; Waited another hour for someone who was still sleeping; Al Gore bored the living daylights out of us all; Went to the awesome-est mall I've ever seen; Ate real food for dinner (Chinese).

Day Four: Woke up at five; Got to the National Mall sometime between seven and eight; Spent an hour walking around trying to find a street that wasn't blocked so we could get to the National History Museum; Ventured out onto the Mall; Watched inauguration on Jumbotron; Spent a solid two hours walking to Nationals Ballpark, about an hour of which was spent standing in the mob at the corner of D and 7th streets; Got to Ballpark, only to find out they didn't have enough food for all of us; Waited an hour and a half until bus boarding; Went back to hotel to get ready for the "ball", which consisted of throwing all 15,000+ scholars in the National Air and Space Museum, giving us food and Chris Daughtry, and calling it a night; Spent another hour or so standing in mob waiting to leave the place; Almost gave up trying to find the bus; Got back to hotel feeling like the walking dead.

On the plus side, I made a new friend (Mika from Shanghai, she's half-American, half-Japanese, 100% cool), and I bought a couple Black Cat manga. And I wrote quite a few short stories while I was there, which I'll probably post in Quiet Desperations, the world I made for my writing. I have a lot of updating to do, and exams to study for as well, so until next time.

Sayo!

Synopsis: Snow, Shower, and Sickness

Three things, really quick:

1. This morning, I received and electric shock from my shower. Apparently, shuffling your feet along the carpet for five minutes, and then touching the water to test the heat isn't a good idea. That's what I get for getting up late and groggy.

2. It snowed, and now we have a delayed opening tomorrow. For the quarter inch of snow that remains on the ground. Yeah. Pointless, and completely ruins my day.

3. I've gotten sick. In the span of one night, I've gotten a sore throat, runny nose, nasal congestion, and tiredness. I'm mad. Especially since I have my exam essays tomorrow.

4. I know I said three, but there's one more. I had a history test today. I seriously hope I didn't fail. Nobody had any clue what was going on for that test.

5. And...I lied. One more. Inauguration in a few days! I really, really hope I get better before then. Because that would suck.

Okay. The End.

FF VII and Current Events

I'm in my school's library, and there are poster projects from I don't know what classes up on top of the shelves, and there's one in the corner that's a picture of Squall and Rinoa. And know that girl I talked about previously has just come to our table. I kinda don't want to see her right now, but whatever. Back to the story. I first noticed it yesterday, in my usual observation. I recognized it immediately, and barely refrained from squeeing. It's the two of them against an orange-y background, and she's kinda leaning on his shoulder. He's got that stoic look on his face, as usual. It's pretty awesome. It'd be even awesome-er if I knew who did it. But I don't. And I'm not sure how to go about finding out. I don't want to seem like the creeper and ask. But I really want to know...

The Scheherazade Project had to be severely wounded in order to finish it in time to hand it in. I'm really upset. I still haven't finished it yet, but the way it is now, I'll be able to. But I won't have time to write the entire middle part, and that sucks. I'll write the middle part, but it won't be in the handed in version. I'll post it up here, though. Maybe I'll start a new world for all of my long term stories. If I finish them. The Scheherazade Project would be the first, and then I have a couple others that are over ten pages but aren't finished yet that maybe I'll finish in order to post.

I don't think that last sentence even made sense.
Mata aimasho,
Kimi-chan

...I underlined a lot of things there. And I was completely honest, too. But...uh...I really do love watermelon. And I am kind of anti-social. And I may or may not be crazy. I'm leaning towards may. Actually, I think everyone's crazy. But to different degrees of expression. All the rest are pretty much sarcastic stereotypes. If I ever thought homosexuals should go to hell, I think I would do the world a favor and shoot myself. And if I ever won the loud-mouthed award, I think my best friend would shoot herself. She currently holds that award. At any rate, this was fun. I didn't have a good day. I felt like killing someone. My friend got mad at me for not talking to her. I bitched back. I was avoiding her for her own good. If I talked to her, I probably would have been so incredibly mean to her. Something about her, when I'm mad, inspires me to want to break her. Like, physically and literally. Like, punch her as hard as I can in her face, watch her writhe in agony for a few minutes, and then snap her arm in half. That's probably not healthy. But her overwhelming girliness makes my bad moods even worse. She doesn't understand how to read me when I'm in a bad mood, and how to act around me in such situations, and how I happen to not like extreme girliness. I used to have a crush on her, last year. But now, it's more like friendship again. I can see where we'd run into problems if we ever had a relationship (Not that it was going to happen. She claims to be straight. I personally think otherwise.). And now I'm dwelling. I hate dwelling. I'm off to finish the Scheherazade Project. That's what I'm calling it from now on. This is no longer a story. It has progressed far in to the land of full-blown project-hood. Please note, the Scheherazade Project is due tomorrow. I am barely halfway finished. And I haven't even started editing. Dear God.

Sayonara!
