school's been keeping me busy for the most part. the crappy thing about school starting is that i never have enough time to keep up with LJ. i finally caught a minor break since it's almost thanksgiving break, but i still have a quiz to study for later.

anyway my mom made a western styled dinner one day. haha, i don't know what the occasion was, she probably just wanted to test out a new recipe she found, but it was quite delicious!

( random dinner )

i'm having waaayyy too much fun making up drawings for "Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter". although i never played the first one, i was inspired by my sister's luffy character that i made zoro my hero in this game.

( i wasted so much time! )

i'll try to catch up soooon!

ps. jin, why do you look so girly with your bandage hair?! i don't hate it, but i think it would be better without the poof in the back.

you & jin SOLO CONCERT?!? f;alksdjf;ajdsfj ♥!



goes back into study hole

it was my dad's birthday on tuesday! and just in time to celebrate with him cause he's currently in taiwan right now for family reasons. :D

( it's an 85 cake! )

to say: prease to cut your hair!

ps. did jin get skinnier?

i pre-ordered Bandage today. muahha! i'm SO excited for it. the LE comes with a making of AND pv. this is freaking awesome.

long story short, my car battery died today while i was still at school and after 3 different people attempted to jumpstart my car (random stranger i asked, random stranger girl with a jumpbox and mechanic dad, and university parking staff) only my dad got it to work.

the key: the other car has to push on the gas or else it's not enough power to start it. although i'll give it to the three people who tried to help me the benefit of the doubt because i think under normal conditions, the battery is supposed to start up without having to do that. but i think mine was EXCEPTIONALLY dead that it needed more strength.

i don't think i've ever talked to so many strangers in my life!

i am so tired right now. i've been awake since 7am to make it to 9am class and then i had to drive back for 5pm class. i got stuck there until 7:00pm and finally got home. i was going to do homework, but now i just want to rest.

the good thing is, i learned the tricks of the trade for jump starting a car. now i will never be confused again.

sooo long story short, i didn't find parking AGAIN today. i guess 9:30 is not early enough to find parking so i'll just leave the house earlier. i really want to complain to parking though cause it's pretty freaking ridiculous that up until LAST YEAR there was still upperclassmen privileges where you could park in any structure. i mean, with impacted schools why would you take that away? it doesn't make much sense to me, but whatever. i'll just have to get up earlier and beat students to the punch.

on a happier note: one of my books came in! :D yay! now i'm waiting for my stats book and i'm gooood.

even though axel x roxas friendship can never be greater than riku x sora (come on! he cried), they still make me happy to see them so close! especially since you feel kind of bad for roxas (and axel) with the whole nobody/no heart thing. :D and seriously, no game should ever need a girl as a third wheel. EVER.

and i must really suck cause i can never get through games without using a walkthrough. T____T i like being complete but sometimes frustration gets the better of me and i'd rather just look up where certain things are than run around for hours trying to find it. but i will resist for this one... or try to.

with that being said, i have thirty minutes or so left of gameplay before i need to turn in for the day. school just kills.

annnd i need to catch up. i saw the new 14sec oxy commercial though!

mid-autumn festival is coming near so me and my mom have been baking various traditional cakes to celebrate! :D we baked mung bean cake and red bean with egg yolk cake. it sounds kind of disgusting in english (i don't know the correct translations) but i promise it's delicious! and we also added in curry pastry since we already turned on the oven. :D this is the first time i've ever made the dough for the mung bean and red bean with egg yolk cake. normally i just weigh out ingredients for my mom when it comes to these sweets cause it requires higher skill, but this time she let me do the work also. :) adding on to my baking repertoire.

( i always look forward to mid autumn festival )

bah! i don't want to go to school tomorrow. but anyway, i was really frustrated this afternoon cause i couldn't get my kingdom hearts to work but i finally figured it out and now i'm playing it. so far, so good. it makes me want to play kingdom hearts 1&2 over to refresh my memory with the story. ahhh this is bad! anywayyy, time to play some more before showering and sleeping. gotta beat those jerkfaces tomorrow at parking!

school starts this thursday and i'm completely NOT feeling it. T_____T sometimes i wish i could just be a bum for the rest of my life, but i know that will get me nowhere. school is just so draining sometimes. i think just part of me doesn't want school to start because i'm reminded of all the things i need to complete. i should just really take things in one at a time instead of worrying about the whole thing and focus my attention on the work in front of me.

on another note, my mom and i made bread again this weekend. LOL! this time it was basil bread with turkey and cheese.

( ja-pan #2 )

i have an itching to replay final fantasy vii for the nth time.

i went to the weezer/blink 182 concert last night and it was really fun! although the drive there was quite long i had fun with my friends. :D i stood SO far away but i could see the jumbotron so that was okay, aside from drunk people moshing around it was really fun. :D

( first american concert, i know! )

the way my mom says it, it sounds like "eat bread" in taiwanese. ;) i introduced yakitate!!japan to her cause she likes baking and i thought she might enjoy it annnnnnd she LOVES it. she even told me it beats Lovely Complex which proves that she's more boyish as she always picks shounen over shoujo. LOL.

anyway, i made my first bread today!
( maybe one day i'll whip out this bread to beat world class bakers... )

that is all.

about jin and beni? seriously...? who cares!

let's all go back to BANDAGE goodness man! i wasn't psyched about it before but now i'm pretty excited. it's all thanks to LANDS debut! i don't find anything bad about his solo project at all. take it as his solo from cartoon KAT-TUN II you cause my calculations show that he's missing a song. ;P it's to make up for leaving for america! yessssssssss it's only fair. it's about freaking time he did something! i don't worry about KAT-TUN not having group time either cause most if not all the members have juggled solo projects along with group responsibilities so don't even sweat it. ;)

plus, didn't he say that KAT-TUN members were work partners that could be trusted? :D i can't wait.

there's going to be a pirates of the caribbean 4: the fountain of youth coming out in 2011! ahhh i'm quite excited. johnny depp as a pirate is FREAKING AWESOME. my friend told me he was at the convention center here to promote it. ughhh whyy didn't i know earlier?!

luffy and zoro are the closest things to a pirate i have.

possible jin cartoon KAT-TUN two parter?! haha i won't get my hopes up though. i might have read that wrong.

siiigh putting dishes and utensils back at 9:00am and taking out the trash while opening and closing doors loudly should be FORBIDDEN. just cause my mom already woke up does not mean i did. i should just get used to it. he's driving me crazy.

don't get me wrong, i love my mom, but sometimes when she's home (weekends or holidays) and i'm trying to use the computer to get things done it's really annoying. normally i get until 4pm to use the computer however i want (mind you that this is MY computer... lol) but she's home for labor day weekend and she keeps nagging me about how scanning is a waste of time and how if my sister wants the scans she should just wait until she comes home and do it herself. there's no point in scans when you already have the actual book. when the computer dies all the data is gone anyway. ughhhh, there's no winning against her. i just want to use the computer in peace and do my daily routines and occasional scan routines without hearing someone else in the room complain. the REAL reason she's like this is because she wants me to BURN FOR HER! lolol. ahhh, i better hurry and get this done or else she's not gonna last much longer without touching this computer. lol, she's so weird i swear.

on a slightly happier note, AKANISHI JIN IS FREAKING AWESOME. lol, i read some question translations and i'm convinced that we're one and the same (as creepy as that sounds... i'm not trying to mean it in a we'redestinedforlife kind of way LOL). :D ♥

i've been scanning since 10am this morning and i'm still not done as i type this. i'm using this downtime to write an entry. lol! way to be productive. ;P it's been a long time since i've scanned anything but it feels really good. :D i still have to fix up the scans and my mom already came home. that means i'm even MORE rushed and pressured to get this thing done cause she wants to use the computer. T______T

i haven't even watched the newest cartoon KAT-TUN yet! i think i might have to watch that after i finish scanning this monster. siiiighhhh i might as well wait for next week's ckt to come out so i can watch it at the same time.

why are you doing this to me MEDIAFIRE?! failing on me twice?! argggg, whyyyy?
NEVERMIND. MEDIAFIRE IS JUST LAME AND WON'T UPLOAD MORE THAN 100MB TO NON PREMIUM MEMBERS AND I JUST REMEMBERED NOW. faiiiillllll.

and the waiting ensues. i just want hot people in my hands right now!

did the KAT-TUN btr photobook come out? i need to know so i can pick up the copy! haha, my informant is not available right now.

ihearyourtears if you read this 3 hours earlier than when i wake up tomorrow, please let me know if it's here. i have some scanning to do.

EDIT: nevermind, i called them today and they told me it hasn't come in. what is the release date for this?! and why do people have it already?

darn you kame, koki, and ueda and your two parters! i insist that jin, maru, and junno get one too next next week! being kid-loving gangsters just does not cut it!
