^-^ I am supposed to not be using the internet! I really do have to go clean the bathroom (ick) and finish Miko's Yukito outfit. Heh.
In other news, new layout coming soon. Maybe tonight, as I do feel like archiving. I'm back to a Kagerou layout, though it's not even the original layout that I made. But it's black and...hot pink... and it's really nice. I miss black and pink layouts since the last one that I made was YEARS ago for that Sailormoon Blackmoon site that I used to run. Pink + black = nice layout!
Gotta dye Ishiko's hair tomorrow. Lucky. I don't get to dye my hair for at least another week. Torture! I've got the dye and everything! Ishiko has to get her hair to a perfect Kamijo blond for the prom though! Speaking of which, I think I annoyed Ishiko a bit last night when I said that if it costs .00/ticket to go to the prom I am not going! I would rather miss out on it and have my friends go without me than pay that much money to go to a Boys and Girls Club and have a crappy prom. True, the dresses were expensive and are gorgeous and I did spend over 60 hours working on them (that 60 was probably miko's alone, ha ha ha), but personally, I would rather not spend to hang out with my classmates at an event that I'm probably not even going to stay the whole time for. .00!!!!! I could buy CDs with that money! I could buy shoes! I could buy (insert all the other things that I spend my money on here)!!!! Or worst of ALL...what if machi releases something SOON!!??!!?? It had best not cost that much, because everyone can be sure that someone is going to feel my wrath as a result! That's over halfway to 0! If we're lucky that will be the couples cost...It's usually just under that anyway and since I'm not a couple I could live with the lessser price. I refuse to pay over . REFUSE. Didn't Amanda's sister tell us that? Is she a reliable source? *phew* None of that was meant to sound angry/yelly if it did. I just felt like ranting because I think it's ludicrous for the prom to cost that much!
Now to some it may sound like going to the prom is my one and only dream and that I aspire to be prom queen or something. Not the case. We (my friends) and I just wanted to wear our Lareine inspired dresses somewhere and prom was the most likely place. People will think we are crazy, but that is half the fun... *sigh*

Well, I have nothing to say today, but here is my evil plan.
Your objective is simple: World Domination
Your motive is a little bit more complex: Evil - It's my nature
Stage One:
To begin your plan, you must first Assassinate a Chosen One. This will cause the world to sit up and take notice, stunned by your arrival. Who is this Demon Straight Out of Hell? Where did they come from? And why do they look so good in Classic Black?
Stage Two:
Next, you will Seize control of the Pacific Ocean. This will cause countless hordes of Corporate Suits to flock to you, begging to do your every bidding. Your name will become synonymous with Blood, as lesser men whisper your name in terror.
Stage Three:
Finally, you will Unleash your Opening of the Seven Seals, bringing about the Return of the Antichrist. This will all be done from a Abandoned Church, an excellent choice if we might say. These three deeds will herald the end, and the citizens of this planet will have no choice but to elect you their new god.
You better believe it. The Antichrist is coming to get youuuuuuu!

It is way too nice outside to have to go to work... It's so sunny and pleasant and Ishiko and Miko are going for ice cream without me. *pout* Stupid work.
I can't wait to change this layout either. I'm thinking it's going to be of someone from Dir en Grey now, or else I'll make ANOTHER Kagerou one since the first one sucks. It's being such a pain in the ass. I need something more springy though. Kozi is great, but this layout makes me think of winter and snow.
I am in a very Kagerou mood today. (or this week rather, as I have mentioned them often...) I REALLY can't wait until I can buy something. *sob* I just like them so much. Well, I CAN wait, but I wish I didn't have to. I am just listening to the only three songs that I downloaded (because it would be bad to get more since I am going to be good and buy things!) and waiting. I get to cosplay Daisuke next week though! Yay! It's the easiest outfit that I could find, since I don't have time to do anything spectacular, but I'm still happy. The last thing I need is another outfit to make! What I do need to do though is scan in Miko's Kagerou flyer *drool*. I think I looked at that I little too much 2nd period today....

Today my car became very empty of gas... wah, I don't wanna spend money on gas! But I had to drive to work, and then when I was on my way home I realized that I hadn't punched out, so back to work again and then to Ishiko's, then to Keene (closest "city") and all around there, then to Miko's, then to Ishiko's again, then home. *phew* Lots of driving. Of course if I want to go to work tomorrow (and get my paycheck, wheeee) I have to get more gas.
Mikoto-chan!!!!!!!! I did not scan in that Kagerou flyer today. *sob* Please let me do it still! Ah, yes, so Miko got a lot of flyers with her PlC Cd and there was a Kagerou one and I said "oh wow" about 6 times and stared at it until anyone realized that I was acting strange. It made me VERY happy for I do so love Kagerou and intend to prove my love (by buying things) when I go to Tokyo. Then I stared at it more...and got a big grin on my face throughout the rest of the day whenever I saw it. It's very nice. I want to scan it so that I can stare at it all the time! Wahahahahahaaaa!
So anyway, we went shopping today. First we went to Jo-ann Fabrics where we were accosted (not really) by one of my teachers and asked about what we were up to. We bought the rest of the stuff for Miko's Yukito outfit (which I don't know when I am going to finish and Miko can't because I want her to work on her prom dress! I guess on Saturday...) and I got the stuffs for the Volt jacket and also some pretty burgundy ribbon (two kinds). We then went shoe shopping (at Payless, cuz we're cheap) and I saw these really nice sandals that I wanted and Miko saw really nice sandals that she wanted and we decided that we have to go buy them next week when we aren't so poor. Ishiko also got her prom shoes. I was worried that she wouldn't because she thought that everything was ugly. I also got pretty fake eyelashes (because mine are short!) and some lovely red hair dye from the beauty supply place, so that I can machi-ize myself for the prom. Thing about the prom is that I wish we didn't have to go. I want to get dressed up and go somewhere and the prom is the only option, but I wish that there was something better. Sadly, there is not. And Miko got these super-cute fake fingernails ('cause she bites hers alot) with this lacy heart decal on them.
On the way home we filmed a little for our nameless documentary. That was...interesting. If anyone can think of a good name, we need one! Suggestions pleaaaaaase!

I am Kozi! Guitarist of Malice Mizer (and so pretty).
Find out which Malice Mizer member you were meant to be here
by miyabi
Yay! Kozi! Just like my layout! Whoo! (despite my love for Mana-sama, Kozi is a close second!)I was worried that I was going to get Gackt and that would have been... ugh. (blah, blah, not that Gackt isn't nice, but he and I have issues with each other. we try to get along, really, but it really upset me when he drove the j-rock police car into my house. didn't we tell him that if he is going to drive with his knee, he could not drive the car?!) {you may have noticed that the previous stuff on Gakuto-kun is quite nonsensical. don't worry. it wasn't meant to make sense to anyone but the chosen few... maybe I will explain it someday...}

Gah, my new layout is not being cooperative! I was really going to put machi on it (for his birthday, next month, 25th, don't forget it!), but Kagerou seems to have clomped in and set up camp. I wasn't going to argue with Daisuke since he had a fish in his mouth... If it doesn't work out though, they're getting the boot and machi is going up! I can't remember how to put a semi-transparent background color in on of these textbox thingys... anyone know the code for that? I lost mine and I can't seem to get it right for the life of me! It is very important to the new layout. Anyone who can give me this info is my friend for life, IM me or e-mail please! (yes, I am too lazy too look it up myself!)
In other news, tomorrow I get to buy my hair dye. Sweet. BUT CRAAAAAAAAAAAP! I have to go to work quickly to finish up my orientation. I am going to bolting from school (I get out at 1:30) so fast and rushing to work so I can get that damned thing over with! I think that I should be back before 3, so the shopping can still go on without any other problems. I have to buy some makeup and some materials for the Volt jacket that I am making (Volt Kruger from "The Bouncer", on commission). Stupid work. I have to remember to call upon my co-workers at Maggie's too, since I am scheduled to work at BOTH of my jobs on Saturday and the times overlap slightly... God damn... grrrr...
Miko-chan, if you read this, DO bring all that stuff that Mo~so sent you with your CD. I want to see it! Remember! I dunno why you didn't bring it today anywayyyyyyyyyyyyy! And there is nothing wrong with you being really excited. Ishiko is mental. I would be excited too! (maybe not THAT excited over PlC, but still) Getting cool stuff is always reason for celebration!

08:51 p.m.---Sunday, April 14, 2002
La la la...Today was nice. I got up and lounged around and read... then I showered...read more...laundry... homework...reading. Ishiko and Miko came over and we talked about this j-rock documentary that we are filming. That's right, a j-rock documentary. The point of it is that we are three fanatic gals in NH and that we like j-rock. That's it. Yes, there will be cosplay. Yes, there will be insane bouts of fangirl-ism (will try to keep that LOW). We still need a title though... Anyone have an suggestions? It needs to be really cool, preferable j-rock related.
I bought myself a few little presents today. I'm so happy. I haven't been able to do that in a while. Small things that please... Two pairs of fishnet tights (red and white), which despairingly are likely to be huge and I'm also a little peeved that now that I'm getting them it's getting to warm to layer my tights. Damn. I've been DYING to wear any color fishnets over my black tights... I also splurged and ordered a black lace parasol, which I suspect will be of low quality and not surpass the greatness of my pink one, but that's what I get for .00. I'm happy about the parasol though because it will be nice for a GothLoli accessory. Along with that are the marabou feather fans that we (my friends and I) need for the prom. It is essential to our dresses that we have them. I was glad that I had a choice to get a burgundy one, because the red (though machi-licious) would not have matched my dress so well as it did his. I am worried that Miko's is going to be...very pink. Like HOT pink. **; Yeeesh. That stupid prom is almost upon us and I've got that lovely Volt jacket to make too! (197 spikes on the thing. it's going to be very pointy and time consuming!)

I spent ALL day cleaning my room... literally. I worked in there from 12:30 to 9pm. @_@ I am exhausted! I didn't think it was that messy. Stupid remodeling making my room all messy... but at least now I have a closet of my own! I can see my carpet again though and I color coded all of my material. Needless to say I did not work on prom dresses OR scholarships...
I was hanging pictures on my wall today. There is this section of my wall that is the complete archive of almost every picture of a j-rocker (and a little anime stuff) that I've printed out over the years. After a while things really do accumulate and that's when I know it's time to repaper my wall. When I first started this is was pics from National Geographic. My wall was a zoo. Then it faded to anime... and then it got a little j-rocky...and now it's primarily j-rock. To get to my point though, I was hanging a picture up and it was next to a picture of Raphael from Angel Sanctuary... and I thought "wow, i miss AS". And I do! I haven't even given it a thought in so long and I still have ALOT of it to buy! There were actually quite a few AS pics on the wall, so I thought about this alot. Sure, I have about 0 worth of Angel Sanctuary merchandise in my room, but I that does not excuse the fact that I have huge holes in my manga collection! In conclusion: j-rock is important, but Angel Sanctuary has precedence (except for in the case of machi, for he precedes all things as far as my spending is concerned.).

10:46 p.m.---Friday, April 12, 2002
Yay. Yesterday Pitas did not seem to be working. I was sad. I wanted to blog!
Anyway, today has been very good. School was good, except for this rediculous talent show at the end of the day. That was pretty bad. We also got report cards today, which was really really good. I did well, so as always my mom bought me some nice gifts. We decided that the best place to go (we wouldn't normally be so fast, but we were both with no other plans for tonight) would be Joann Fabrics, since I LOVE it there. (yes, i am a big huge fabric store loving dork) There was a massive sale going on AND we had coupons, so I got a ton of stuff at a good price and all for . Here's what I bought, not that anyone is interested, but this is my blog...
Pretty burgundy material, plain, cotton-y looking with a little shine, little bit stretchy. 4 yards for .00, part of which must soon be used for a corset thing I wanted to make.
Metal eyelet/grommet presser, extra eyelets. Now I can poke holes in things! Yay! I really wanted this so that I can make things that lace up. ^_^ So excited. Got it for half off!
Black 7-9 inch invisible zipper. I didn't need this, but I wanted one...
Cool metal heart shaped clasp. Also bought because I thought it looked nice.
Sewing machine needles for leather/vinyl. No more breaking needles!
Thread organizer. This is silly, but I really needed it. I've been keeping my thread in a cookie tin and it really is a pain in the ass.
2 yards of black satin. I can never have enough of this.
Wasn't that exciting?! Right now I am downloading a PV. AGAIN! I lost a whole bunch of my files (maybe 7 or 8) and as I have not yet been able to back up my PV downloads on a CD (the burner is dead)...Grrrr... I lost the Shazna PV that I wanted to keep, but ones that I didn't like stuck around. Hell. I'm in the middle of this bizarre Shazna phase (not really my kind of band) and I would rather watch Izam hop around like a little fairy that some stupid huge black guy bend stuff. Grrrr. LUCKILY, my rice things were backed up on my dad's computer, so I didn't lose those! And my Dir en Grey stuff survived. Bleh. I am such a junkie. Someday I will buy the videos of all these PVs. It's just a matter of finances...
On another note, I've been reading Kushiel's Dart like there's no tomorrow. I am determined to finish it! I will! Must...read...sequel...and with another coming out after that, I must keep up! I really like it alot. It's so well-written and the *gasp* sex scenes aren't horrible (for some authors it is just pointless to even try and be decent, because it is hard to make something like that work well). I swallowed about a quarter of the book just today, screaming rot, hell and damnation as all my favorite characters were knocked off in one fell swoop. BUT isn't that always the case? If someone is going to die in a story it is always and forever the person that I am most partial too. I think that has not happened a total of...once. Well, I'm sure that I'll take a shine to another few characters, any of which are sure to be knocked off in the near future!
I have more search engine queries for this week. So far, nothing TOO radical. Just alot of Gothic Lolita. 18% of the people who come here from a search engine have the word "lolita" in their search...
DEG Toshiya gallery
LOTR Quiz
Gothic Lolita
petticoat crossdressing
what does lolita BBS mean
gothic lolita bible
Japanese gothic lolita clothes
yu ki oh pictures
Lucifer angel sanctuary image gallery (the other day i was talking about raphael. raphael was cute, but lucifer, wah, he was really nice looking...)

Well, I went to work today, but I didn't have to stay til 8. Yay! I got to watch a cool (ha ha) video on how to get old people out of a nursing home if there is a fire. Then I got to leave. I'm a little pissed though because my boss has me scheduled to work April 20 and I SPECIFICALLY requested that day off because I have to work at my other job that day. Since I only work at Maggie's two days a month, I really can't afford to miss one of them. But I have to work tomorrow, so I can tell him that I absolutely will not be in that day.
Lots of people got here through a search engine these last two days... Let's see what they were looking for...
lolita mayu (hmm...from Google Japan)
lolita ill
lolita bbs (three times!)
Angel Sanctuary Raphael pictures (I remember Raphael. He was such a man-whore, but he was also very good-looking! Blah. I miss AS.)
crossdressing prom dresses (there's a boy out there somewhere looking for a prom dress...!)
toshiya cosplay pic
gackts family (gackt?! family?!)
Tiffany prom dresses
So that's that. I like seeing what crazy people type into things to get to my blog. These ones are all pretty normal though. I was suprised that so many had the word "lolita" in them. It also looks like people on the MLs that I'm on actually DO come here through my signature. Good. Then I haven't been typing it for nothing! People from many different countries have stopped by too (top five: US, Japan, Singapore, Canada, France). What would I do without this tracking thing? How else would I waste the space of a whole entry with meaningless drivel? (beside the usual stuff, of course!)

I wrote something here earlier today, didn't I? Oh well.
Today my mom got our plane tickets sorta reserved to go to Japan. Yay. The travel agent said that she's going to book them, but also see if there is a better deal coming. I'm getting sssssoooooo anxious. All this waiting is going to be the death of me. Last week I was convinced that all I need is a time machine! This week I'm being a little more realistic... Just going to have to wait it out, ne. In the mean time...my mum just called the apartment place. We are still getting an apartment, but the details are really up in the air as to WHERE in Tokyo it is going to be. The apato people said to call back two weeks before we leave for Japan and to reserve it then, because the contract has to be signed within two weeks of reserving. Okayyy. Don't get stressed Ishiko-chan, we are still getting an apato, it just might not be the exact one that we hoped for. It will still be little and box-like, but not in the same place and hopefully not all the way across Tokyo from it. (the goal was to be as close to Shinjuku OR Shibuya as possible.) Now I have to wait for that too... So in the words of Grouchy Smurf (or Ishiko): "I hate waiting!"

I have so much homework!(which I AM doing right now, despite the fact that I'm blogging. I am multitask.)
Some news...1. I can not get fired from the nursing home simply for dying my hair. Damnation. But for some reason right this second, I really feel like going to work. Strange since this morning I was ready to quit! 2. Amanda is trying on the final for her prom dress today. *crosses fingers* I hope so much that it fits okay, because my head might explode if I have to fix it too much!
Okay, well I thought that I should address this, since Miko probably let the thought cross her mind and I would be surprised if it didn't... NO I am NOT wishing that I could go to work so that I can see my "boyfriend". There is this cute (like puppy cute) old man that I always see at work and last Friday he said "gee, I see you alot. maybe I should ask you out on a date." @@; Riiiiiiiight. So now he's my "boyfriend". Miko seems to think that this is very funny. I think that he's nice. She's just afraid of old people. And I may as well mention this too: do stop mentioning him, bakabaka or (as they say at school) "you will face the consequences". But seriously, I am getting a little pissed...
Yuki
---------------------------------------
-----------------------
09:41 p.m.---Monday, April 8, 2002
Wah, Ishiko is right. Miko did not even mention poor Emiru's birthday. She said that she didn't have time to blog yesterday though. As for me, I wrote a little Kazuki thing on my rice webpage when I updated it. Can't let myself get too emotional, ne.
Anyway, I'm going to whine about stuff now (if you want to skip the whining, there's some j-rock babbling beneath it)... I really am not doing well today. By 6th period I was completely out of my mind and on the verge of crying. I was being sorta dizty too. All this (and more, which I will get to later) from thinking too much about all the stuff that I have to do! I've been struggling like MAD not to let it all get to me for the past few weeks, but today was... bad. So since I've been having these stress problems, I've been feeling nauseous in the morning again. Ick. That was worse today, along with a headache. I fell down when I got home and again (luckily into a chair) when Ishiko and Miko were here. I don't know what causes me to fall down like that, but it's like suddenly I'm just not standing anymore! Then (and this never happened before) my throat sorta started closing up on me when I was driving to work. That was sorta weird. I'm concerned about stress, because it causes me to lose weight and I'm already grossly thin. NO ONE should want to be this thin. It's icky. So I feel like I'm dying and la di daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
Oh right, why I didn't go to work today. Well, I got there feeling rather corpse-like and I was supposed to talk to my boss. But he had just left. So I thought "well, he didn't tell me to work tonight and I don't want to" so I left too. End of story. I came home and did my homework and then I worked on scholarships and then I worked on prom dresses. Overall, this did not make me feel better, but worse. I think that I am just a nut. Having a crisis of some sort. Luckily it isn't bad enough that I am having panic attacks. Now THAT is bad. So that's the whiny-whining for tonight!
WAAAAAAAAAAAAI! Ishiko and I are going to see New Sodmy on July 20 and 21! YAYYYYYYYY! I was so excited this morning when Ishiko told me that the tickets are all settled that I almost cried and I had this big stupid grin on my face. I am a little sad that Mayu-kun won't be there though. But I *suppose* that I could just look at Kamijo instead. It will be so wonderful since we never got to see LAREINE...(not that NS is like LAREINE, but Kamijo is there, ne) So now all I have to do is hope that the Dir tickets come through and I am going to see Aioria if it kills me! My mom thinks that I am going to spend all my money going to lives, but if I can see these three bands, I will be all right. The only thing that would be cooler would be if machi suddenly decided to do something... Probably not, but it's a nice thought, ne?
Oh one more thing. My stupid English teacher resigned last week. The new one actually gives us assignments. Wah. I like her all right, but this whole idea of doing real work is going to be tough after three quarters of napping...

08:46 p.m.---Sunday, April 7, 2002
Finally! This weekend is almost over! I've just been doing so much stuff, that I think I almost might be able to relax! Yay! I forgot about changing the clocks in my bedroom (I've got three on my desk) so I slept until noon! I guess it a good thing that I did my history homework last night!
Did you know that I don't swing/move my arms when I walk? Hardly ever, very little if at all. I was at work yesterday and as always my mind was wandering and I took this fact into account. **;
Well, for anyone that cares, I've updated Sobetsukai, my rice webpage. New happy image gallery with new happy pics. Some of them are really cute! I really do need to keep up with that site more. People actually go to it!
I guess that's it. Sorry I haven't really been writing anything interesting lately!

08:29 p.m.---Saturday, April 6, 2002
Nnnnnnnnchaaaaa...(don't know what that is supposed to be)
I'm supposed to be writing history crap, but I've been checking my e-mail for the last hour and a half. Between the Lolita ml, my sudden decision to post alot on the Aioria ml and Coin-in-Grey, I'm drowned. Plus I had to e-mail Mikoto about a kazillion pics of Dir en Grey. Needless to say, all this typing is exhausting my fingers (ha ha).
On a super note, there is quite unexpectedly a small army in Japan trying to get Ishiko and I Dir en Grey tickets. I was so happy that my mom's friend (who I am going to write a thank you e-mail to in a moment!) was even going to try to get tickets, but now since she did not get them when they went on sale and they sold out she has gone above and beyond! Really! First she asked a client of her's who has some connection with NHK to try to find something, so he and his crew are looking. Then I think there is also someone else who has other connections. ^^; I am going to be indebted to these people even if they don't get the tickets, because they don't even know me and are trying to hard! *sniffle* They are so nice! If all else fails (we wanted to go to the June 19 or 20 lives) she is going to try for the July 1st one. SO SO SO NICEEEEEEEE! I am still in awe of how nice people are!
Oh and on another good note, I finished Miko's prom dress. Now all I have to do is hand it off to her so she can find time to sew the lace on! She's going to get mad though because I'm going to be a real dictator about how she does it. I don't care about how she sews it on the skirt (as long as it's even!), but she HAS to hand sew it on the top. We CAN'T have stiching showing through on the lining! (really, we can't) Now all I have to do is wait for Amanda's sleeve material to get bought and I'm free! Free to work on my commission and make my own beautiful Gothic Lolita clothing for myself! Wahahahaha! Oh and I have to make my prom dress more "machi". It's not even red. It's black since I didn't have the time to make the burgundy part. So I'm thinking I need a hat, then when the red make-up and fan and hair, I will be machi enough. The hat has to be black though and nice, then I will put roses on it or something. Yes, that's it...roses...
Blah, I have to go work on history before I fall asleep. I have to work tomorrow at 4pm, so I want to sleep REALLY late. History is due Monday. Must get done!!!
Yuki

12:37 p.m.---Thursday, April 4, 2002
Okay, well, I'm home today, as you may have noticed from the time. I'll explain the reason (which will be a relief to those who have been worrying about my health) later in this entry. I don't like to post that really personal stuff at the top, in case anyone doesn't want to read it (such as the rant from last month of my shrinking chest).
I'm feeling really inspired to sew today! Good thing, ne. We can thank the GL mailing list that I joined. I don't know if I have to go to work later, since I haven't gotten the call that I'm expecting from my boss, so I'm going to change out of my pajamas and get to work. First I'm going to tackle Miko's prom dress. Ai. It's SO CLOSE to being done! And she'll be so happy that I will stop complaining about it. I must admit that I am VERY VERY (repeat that word a few more times) BITTER about that dress. It's been so much more trouble that it should have been and I feel like I've put more work into it than I wanted to (for and a bottle of water). Not that I want Miko to pay me, but free labor should NOT be such a pain in the ass! Anyway, I decided to stick with the black dress for mine and leave the burgundy top layer out of it, because I don't have the time. I also underestimated the amount of material needed for Amanda's dress, so it currently only has one sleeve. Wah. Anyway, I'm back on my Gothic Lolita kick, even though I've turned out as more of a Gothic Lolita Kyo (dir en grey) than anything else. I suppose that it's very hard to imagine that, ne. But it can happen. I've still got alot of big plans for clothes though, which will really help me out when I finally get my clothing webpage up (sister to my cosplay webpage). All the plans that I blabbed about last month are still good to go, if only I had the time. So I'm going to power work today! I do have a commission coming in sometime too...
Okay, personal goo. Well, it FINALLY came! 15 damn days late, but it's here. (and I assume that you know what I'm talking about) This is my dad's theory. A friend of my mom's got pregnant and suddenly my mom's menopause kicked up a notch and she's off schedule too. She starts her period a few days ago and here is mine. Weird female togetherness thing? So that's that. I'm alive and well.

Twice in one day...again...
Well, I am hoping that Ishiko will be online tonight, because I have some important news about *cough* certain Japan things *cough*. I can only give her another half hour of waiting though, because I'm exhausted and I want to read before I go to bed. La di da...
Did you know that there are alot of anime fans on Pitas? I have realized this simply by going through a bunch, so that I can see what is going on for layouts. I am always interested in what other people are doing. This paragraph is stupid, but too bad!
Miko said that she is not going to school tomorrow. Wahh. That's not good at all. But I guess it's okay. This morning I was really mad at her for NO REASON, luckily that only lasted for first period. I think my mind is frying from certain things that should be happening not happening and my body getting very confused! At least we know that it is not because I am pregnant like some people are....
I'm sorry if this is pointless/senseless! I am quite tired! Thank you to all the crazies that read this goo regularly and to those who just came today by accident! Off to bed, off to bed...

My guidance counselor is really going to raise an eyebrow at this... Well, Hofstra University (somewhere on Long Island, i think) has been e-mailing me for a while and waving the fact that they've waived my application fee around. AND that they extended my deadline to April 12, even though the offer was over on March 29th... SO, I finally broke down and I am applying. I can do it online and then just have my counselor send my transcript. Two weeks from that I will know what I'm doing. I decided to go with an "undeclared" art type major, since I have NO intention of staying there if I get in. Proud of me?
Damn. I'm supposed to be taking a nap right now. I'm SO SO tired and I still have to go to work, but I wanted to fill out this application instead. **; Sleeeeeeeeeeepy.
I think I'm going to put the Smurfs on my next layout. I've been toying with the idea for a few days, but I did want to put Machi on... I don't think there is a safe combination...Oh well. One or the other...

Wah. So sleepy. I was just doing my history homework a moment ago and I almost fell asleep! So five of those people at the bottom do not get described! Better to be here and blog quickly before sleeping!
I learned today that Mayu left New Sodmy! This news makes me very sad, because Mayu-kun was my favorite and I was so happy that he was back after he was missing. He was a very good guitarist, so I hope that someday he continues to work. I have a feeling that he will not, but I can still hope!
I had a dream with Machi (please don't tell me that you read this blog and don't know who that is yet!) in it last night. It wasn't very good. I've never had a dream with Machi present before, so I was a little disappointed that it wasn't good. I remember that I was watching something (TV or maybe it was something I downloaded) and Machi was on it. He was wearing his "Billet" outfit from Lareine (coincidentally my least favorite of his styles) and "singing". Though he had a very good voice, he was not really singing because his mouth was not moving at the right time and he was dancing very badly. The dream lasted FOREVER. When I woke up I was so glad that it was over! Speaking of Machi though, he might be releasing something this spring, which will make me very happy and likely very poor! *cough*heshouldhaveaeventorliveorsomething*cough*

New layout. So soon! I didn't think that I'd have time! Then again, I did slap it together in about 10 minutes... But I bet Kozi never had a little Izam in his tummy before! (scroll down on my profile. Izam is in there!)

Well, it's been decided. This layout is going away soon. It's not that I don't love Kajurin, but I HATE this layout! If I'm lucky I'll be able to get another Kazuki one going, if not...I don't know who!
Also, my "real job" began today. Joy. It wasn't too bad, just alot of filling trays and then washing after the old folks are done. The people I worked with today didn't suck either. They were actually really nice, which is ALWAYS a relief, because I hate working near people I don't like. I don't know how I'm getting paid since I don't have a time card yet and I didn't think of that until now. Shit. Will have to ask Jack... SO that was that. No heavy lifting required or anything. They even let me listen to j-rock! ^_^ I'm not sure that they enjoyed it (it was a Dir en Grey, Lucifer Luscious Violenoue, Lareine, Malice Mizer mix CD), but they let me listen to it!
Must...get..new..layout...

New month + boredom = slew of stupid quizzes! You must have know that by the fact that Kazuki's face has likely been covered by a result! I found that the best way to find these horrid time-wasters is to skim over other people's blogs and stop on all big colorful graphics... Yes, it's that time again. Time to analyze oneself based on the wisdom of the web...(okay, only 2)
You are Duo
Maxwell. You strive on kicking serious ass, anytime, anywhere. However, you
aren't always out to kill, even though you consider yourself "God of Death
(Shinigami)". You have a kind, warm heart and an open personality, you are
always willing to lend a hand to a friend in need and try something new.
No surprise on either count. I've never seen either of these shows...hm. I'm thinking of changing the layout as soon as I can. Gah. Bad Yuki. I had a really hard time making a Kazuki one (i have a hard time forcing layouts upon myself), so I'm not too happy with this. On an unrelated note, Miko's prom dress is the pink incarnation of hatred and death. I HATE it. HATE. I fixed the "broken" pleats, which we tore out trying to get her into it and I also got the zipper mostly fixed. All the seams are getting a little ragged though, so prom should HURRY and get over with. That dress is NOT meant to be tugged at like we had to to get her into it...

New month starting tomorrow, new layout... I was a little miffed at first that I have to write over Kajurin's face, but I suppose it's okay. I'm not sure how happy I am with this layout overall... I think I'm also going to check in on my tracking device. Most of the search engine queries this month aren't too weird:
gothich lolita clothing
Kagrra gallery
cosplay lolita
marshmellow peeps (i wish that I had some of those right now...)
shinkansen
All rather typical, except for the "shinkansen" because I'm pretty sure I've never used that word here before. Next time I'm talking about trains I will be sure to mention the shinkansen though. I think it's funny that I can always tell which person who visited is Mikoto simply by the fact that she has a Mac...(just like I'm the only one who ever has Windows 95)
This weekend was good. Along with getting a job at long last, Ishiko, Miko and I also got Amanda and Melissa's birthday shopping done. Yay. We (Miko, Ishiko, Amanda, me) slept at Ishiko's on Friday night. I'd rented movies, so pretty much all we did was watch those. I'd wanted to get "Dracula", but it was gone. So I wanted to get "Frankenstein", but it was also gone. "Sid and Nancy"? ALSO GONE. It was like someone knew that I was coming and rented everything that I wanted. So I wandered around for a few minutes wondering what I was going to do and then settled on "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?", "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" and "Ghostworld". I would have been happier with "Baby Jane" (which we must remember came out in the 40s or something) if Jane got to be really mean and crazy more. I was just being sadistic and wanted to see Jane really go off on Blanche, but she only really did that once. "Hedwig" was a movie that I wish I had not watched with Amanda. She was okay with it, but I still get uncomfortable watching things like that with her simply because she doesn't see stuff like it at home. I actually liked it best of all the movies decidedly (by miko, amanda and I) because of the singing in the oven, the "goomy" bears and the sing-a-long part. I really chose it beause I thought that the box was nice looking...Poor Miko had the song about the "botched sex-change" stuck in her head for a while. "Ghostworld" seemed like it was going to be good in the beginning but then I realized that the plot was going nowhere slowly. *snore* Boooooring. And I don't like that weasly looking guy who was in "Fargo". So that was Friday night.
Saturday was shopping and Miko and I had alot of fun. (I think Ishiko MIGHT have had a little fun, but she HATES shopping with a passion!) We went to our favorite plaza (which houses a supermarket, Marshall's, Jo-ann Fabrics, party supply store, Home Goods, Big Lots, toy store and some other things). We didn't know what "Big Lots" was so we went in. It was alot of discount items, sort of like a classy dollar store (obviously more expensive). Miko and I found this cool lingerie that we wanted (to wear on regular occasions, like school, with things worn under, we are not sexual perverts together or seperately!) and then we wandered around and somehow ended up "attacking" each other with giant pillows shaped like fish. ^-^ It was really fun! Then we went to alot of other places and antique stores and Miko bought a purse (antique) and at Marshall's I bought a shirt. No one ever thinks that I shop at places like that, but really Marshall's and TJ Maxx and HORRIBLE stores like that are the place to get good deals and since no body likes to shop at them, no one ever has the same clothes that I do. People always assume that I shop at Hot Topic or something, but I haven't bought anything beside shoes there in years! I am on a budget after all...
Crap. I'm supposed to be doing history homework...
