Life...

Okay, well today I'm gonna blog about life, 'cause I haven't done that in a while and if I don't do that, I'll be missing the whole point of blogging!  Sooooo......  I added a widget to my blog!  It's a shelfari widget.  Shelfari is a website for nerds.  JK, it's an awesome website.  And then...  I went on a trip to lake Milacs in northern Minnesota.  It was fun.  The car ride was about two and a half hours long.  It was at a cabin, but there were 6 families there not including the owner.  We arrived at around 10:30 after leaving around 8.  The cabin was tiny, so most of the people were sleeping in tents pitched around the front of the cabin.  It looked pretty hilarious.  Oh, and I'm getting a computer soon!  It's a Mac, a desktop Mac.  Ureshii ne!  Anyway, life.  The cabin.  No getting to anime and manga in this post, Olivia!  We went tubing on Saturday and it was pretty epic.  It was really fun.  But they didn't go fast enough.  But I don't think going that fast is necessarily a good thing.  Then we went back and played in the water.  For a while.  Lake Milacs is supposed to be famous for its walleye, but it was so warm!  Then we went in and watched a movie.  It was Spirited Away by Miyazaki.  It was good.  Then we played cards.  We played Dai Hin Min, or Rich Man Poor Man, or bomb, or the Chinese name.  Then we played Egyptian Rattrap.  That was really fun.  THEN, we went to the Lake Milacs casino for dinner.  We ate at the buffet.  There was this little 6 year-old girl named Skylar Wang, she ate a LOT.  She's only six!  Whatever.  After dinner, we walked back outside and I noticed this sign that said, "Grand Asian Concert" with a bunch of Asians on it.  I was like, way to be racist, guys.  So there was the story of all the people looking at us in the casino.  But maybe it was just because we were a big group of Asians, more than half of them under 18.  Then we waited outside for a bit, and Jessica, my friend and friend for years decided to play Truth or Dare.  She was dared right away to do 20 push-ups.  Like that was hard.  Then I had a truth.  It was the color of my underwear.  Black.  Weird question.  Even more weird when the person who asked it was a boy.  Then Jessica, my evil friend, dared this guy to hug me and I flat out refused. Therefore, I did not get hugged.  I felt really sorry for myself just then.  Then we played more cards.  Then we  went to our tents to go to sleep.  In the morning, my dad got up early to go fishing.  I knew that, 'cause I was vaguely awake.  About 15 minutes later, I got up to find him. at 6:15.  He was nowhere to be seen.  I was bored.  I went into the cabin to go to the bathroom and found out there were people sleeping on the floor.  Oh, shi- I mean shiz!  None of them woke up anyway.  So I grabbed a muffin 'cause I was hungry and ate about...  half of it.  Then, I planned to read my book.  Oops, it was in the car.  And guess what?  The car was locked, obviously, and my dad had the stupid keys!  So I had NOTHING to do, and I had to be quiet.  So I waited around 20 minutes and Allen woke up and tramped around.  Allen was the guy who Jessica dared.  I felt really sorry for him too.  Yeah, so I was poking holes in my muffin and making muffin art, and he woke up.  He went into the cabin and woke up the guys sleeping inside.  So then I went inside.  Jack (Jessica's little brother) had a really squeaky voice and it was weird.  Random...  So then, we were chatting and stuff, and then Jessica and Amy woke up.  Amy is a girl.  End of explanation.  We played cards, and were eventually kicked out of the cabin 'cause we were too loud.  So we moved to my tent.  Then, we went swimming in the lake, where we found disgusting jello-y eggs that were most likely mosquito eggs.  And I cut my foot, and it was probably infected.  So I went back and changed, and just ate something until they came back.  Then we played....  you probably guessed it by now, CARDS!  We played BS.  If you don't know what it stands for, then you don't need to know.  It was fun.  Then we went swimming again.  I had forgotten about my cut, it hurt like hell when I went in, so I came back out and  read for a bit.  Then we ate lunch.  Then we packed up and left and when we got home, I put some medicine on my cut and took a shower, sporting around 8 (ONLY 8?!) HUGE mosquito bites.  Hey, it's the land of 10,000 lakes, what do you expect?

Fruits Basket

I finished the series.  It was beautiful.  It ranks just as high as Ouran, except for the fact that Ouran's not completed.  I figured out that Takaya uses a 0.3 mm mechanical pencil.  Jeez, that's tiny.  I use 0.5.  0.5's also a lot easier to find and buy, so I never run out.  And it doesn't break that easily.  Anyway, I think I'll read Beauty Pop next.

A New Goal in Life

I think I have to try to draw in pen and markers more.  I mean, I only do that in class when I doodle...  Err...  Yeah....  I think I should, yeah!  But I like pencil better...  Because I can bring those places!  But I should buy a nicer pen....  The ones I have right now are disappointing...  I like color pencil too!  But those kind of pictures take a long time.  And I like cool patterns too!  But I don't draw those very much either because those take a while and I get bored and don't finish them...  Usually.  Yeah.  Y'know.

Kanon 2006

Okie dokie now I'm watching Kanon 2006.  It's like the original Kanon story-wise, but the art's way better.  It's by Key, and it's a lot like Clannad and is really beautiful.  I think that it's really good, but kind of sappy...  It's hilarious but super sad.  Makoto died!  She was a fox.  I wonder how they came up with that plot, it's so complicated and it all fits together and you actually understand it, cough cough, Haruhi Suzumiya.  But I think that anime was supposed to be confusing.  Oh well.  Kanon's awesome, and there's so much sadness!  It's another one of those animes where the main guy character is new and gets involved with a bunch of girls who are mysterious or had a tragic childhood but is always smiling.  Something like that.  It depends though.  I've seen some pretty crappy ones with really bad plots.  Actually, only a few episodes of one.  It was painfully confusing and didn't make sense and it was a long time ago so I don't really remember the name.  I'm not gonna ever watch stuff like that again.

Rin and Len, YOU KNOW WHO THEY ARE!

=( Rant about stuff, part 2

I hate it when my mom snaps.  Part of that reason is that she always takes it out on me.  She insisted that because I didn't hang up the freshly washed clothes that she washed for me, she would take them away and not give them back.  When I asked her what I would wear if she took them all away, she said it wasn't her problem! On the day after my frickin' birthday.  Way to ruin it, mom.  You really excelled at the "take care of your daughter" course.  Jeez.  That's why I hate it whenever anyone gets mad.  If I'm involved.  I hate getting blamed for no reason whatsoever and no proof that I actually had a part in it.  It's not MY fault that I like to play pranks on people and tease people.  It really isn't.  It's a hobby.  I also don't like it when people like teachers are hypocrites.  It's like, "we appreciate fairness in this classroom" the first day of school, and then the next week, she's like, "Olivia, you can't take stuff away from others".  Did I even take it away?  Maybe, but she had no proof.  It's not my fault that I rebelled.  It's not fair.  Maybe if she said, "we don't care about fairness in this classroom" I wouldn't consider it hypocrisy.  But then everyone would hate her.  Luckily, only 2 teachers in my life have ever hated me that much.  But I was annoying and I always finished first, and got the best score in my class without studying.  How do I do that?  Because the stuff you nimrods teach is really simple and has been already learned by Olivia!  Jeez, jeez, jeez....  JEEZ!

Yay!!!! It's my birthday!!!

It's my birthday, and I finished OURAN!!!!!!  Or  the last volume of it, anyway.  Volume 16.  I'm so proud of myself!

I'M ALMOST DONE WITH OURAN.

Holy crap, I'm almost done with Ouran HSHC.  That's good and bad at the same time.  But actually, I'm almost at the current chapter.  It's not actually done yet.  There's 80 chapters, and I'm on 73.

NEW OBSESSION!!!!

I GOT A NEW OBSESSION!!!!!!  Is that a good thing or a bad thing?  I love VOCALOID.  It's SO COOL. I'm going to download all of the songs once I get a laptop for Christmas.  Right now, I'm working on saving the links so downloading will be easy.  I can't wait!
