Okay, so no one believed me about that 7-period day. I used Braddock as a counter example. I was refuted. Well, let's ask people who actually GO to Braddock, shall we?
SailorC9: Ne, Umi dear
Musicalcleric: em?
SailorC9: do you have days that you have all of your classes?
Musicalcleric: Yes
Or maybe
SailorC9: and you have days at school where you have all your classes right?
FinalAngelRevisi: yes, i have 7 period days....
I think you all lo0se the BIG ONE!!!!! I cannot wait to tell arrogant little sophomore who "went to Braddock". So did I, missy, and *I'm* right!!

Saw Elf with Christine and Andy. Then Mr. Bertoglio drove us to Fudd's and we ate food/died. Yes. Then I wrote thank you cards and cleaned the bathroom and took a shower. Not so yes. Oh, well. All prayers are for a closing, but I don't think it's happeneing, and I do NOT want to go out my door onto that sheet of ice the county likes to call "road."

So, my amazingly amazing internal clock woke me up at 8 exactly this morning (the time I would need to get up for a two hour delay) and I got to hear the good news from my brother that there was no school. Mainly because I'm not sure if I was halucianting hearing my parents talk about it earlier in the morning.
Anyway, played some FFX, which is why I hate Seymore. Why won't he just die!?
Mama has lots of stuff for me to do today, but I don't want to do it. Either way, Harrison is SO helping me clean the bathroom.
Also, I'm not too happy with Dr. Dell. Oh, well. I think I've come to terms with my grade in that class.
I figured out how to convince my parents to let me drive to school next year, and that is by giving my brother a ride to Robbinson, even though Robbinson is in the opposite direction 0.o;;; Oh, well.
We did, in fact, eat sushi last night, and the roads were horrible. So glad I didn't have to be out on them today at 6AM. I just wonder what type of day we'll have tommorrow, because it's some sort of retarded county policy that the first day of the new quarter HAS to be an anchor day. *shrug* But I'm starting Quantum tommorrow!! Yay!
I don't think I have anything else meaningful to say, except that Gundam r0x0rs. Jaa.

Today, my physics book gave me the answer to a burning question: Why oboeists fail at tuning. You ready?
An oboe reed does not, like other reeds, move using simple harmonic motion. Therefore, amplitude counts. i.e., the pitch depends on how hard you blow. "A skilled musician can compensate for such differences."
Wow. That was amazing. I also did some calc and e-mailed Mrs. Suetterlein (finally). I have to write some DOD thingy, which I really don't wanna do, but Mama says I can take my TJ essay and substitute "DOD intership" for "TJHSST". Mama rocks, Unfortunately. we can't figure out which was the final version...
Lisa/Erin are my heroes.
And, I get sushi tonight!! B/c Dad & Bug are going to wrestling, Mama and I are going for sushi!
Now I begin to BS this essay... Jaa.

Had DDR party with otouto and Kaasan. Ate brownies. Played lots of FFX.
Posted. w00t.
Hoe-ed the snow. *That* was fun.
You know who's a idiot? Tidus. Why?
***********Beware, FFX Spoiler**********
Because he didn't know Yuna was gonna bite it. Come ON! *I* knew in the temple at Besaid when they started talking about the statue. I *didn't* know Auron was dead, but that's a another matter. The point is, no one acts like that unless they know their death is coming. STUPID Tidus.
***********End Spoiler************
Yeah, I should have done work today, but I didn't, so I have to do work tommorrow. *sigh*
I also have some character analysis to do soon, but stupid Andy's always away. Grr.
I sleep now. Jaa.

Quizzes stolen form Sherurururururu:
 'Deeply Disturbed' PLEASE VOTE!!!
What Type of Lunatic are You? brought to you by Quizilla
 What Snack Food are You? brought to you by Quizilla
Went to Kiimu's B-day paatii last night. 'Twas fun. And I saw THE most complicated diagram ever. I think I shall make one too. :P
Played Butt mode DDR. Ate pho (insert accents where nescissary). And met Miimu, newest member of the Iimu Chiimu.
Then I came home and watched Star Trek. It only reinforced my opinion the Julian is uber Kawaii. But v. arrogant. Thank goodness that goes away with time. I think somehow we're going to have to go to DS9, and I suspect it will be on the "Why don't we exist?" mission.
Stupid cell phone woke me several times. Attack of sneezes returns (see: District Band Audition, Sat., Jan. 10). Katana has not yet posted and she said she;d do it yesterday. Book overdue. Poo on it. I have to renew the others. Or maybe just return it because it's bad...
Tiimu didn't know who the G-boys were. *sad*
If your name is Andy DeSoto, don't read this:
I think there needs to be a clothing 101 class, because I obviously missed it. You know, picking clothing, matching, putting and taking off clothes, basic care of clothing, etc.
Okay Andy, you can read again.
E-mailed Allie.
um, I think that's it. Sore ja... Sayonara.

Something I realized today--
I know several curses in Japanese. Like, five or six. It surprises me.
Second, I don't think I've ever heard a G-boy swear, except Duo. Figures the American would be the potty mouth.
Also, Erin has a LJ now (LJ Friends page) and my brother wants a Good Charlotte CD for his b-day.

So, giving Nick a leson today, and he was not doing to well with the concept of rests. Well, I told him he should count, but he wouldn't. Then I told him, if he counted every note right I'd give him a cookie. Not only did he count, but he played the song perfectly. I think maybe I should get some more cookies.
Going to Kiimu's tommorrow. I think she'll get a visit from the 5-minute card fairy. In English, of course.
Writing a post. A long post. WITHOUT my creative support.
Four day weekend.

 You are Loss. You know the true meaning of what it is to lose someone or something very sacred to you.
What song from Blast! are you? brought to you by Quizilla
But where is the PIT!? Stupid bald trumpet man...
*coughs* Anyway... Grab a sandwich for this one people. Because I am talking about GUNDAM!!!!11 Again.
So, I've come to the conclusion that GundamW is the best story I've ever heard and it's v. well done, especially for a mid-90's TV Asahi (or whatever) work. It is no surprise to me that Gundam is so popular, especially if the rest of it is as good. Which only make me want to see it ALL. NOW. Mou, I need to find a Gundam owning buddy. Or get a job. Or both. Actually, I was thinking about actually buying a copy of GWing for myself. But only if Katana and I don't end up going to college together :P The music is wonderful, although they use the word "just" a lot, and it requires only a limited Japanese vocabulary to understand everythign but the important stuff. The voice actors are the awesomest thing ever, especially Duo's. I'm really spoiled, actually. I watched a scene in English just 'cause, and it was SO BAD because Duo's voice actor just doesn't compare to somethingsomethingsomething Seki. Yes, that IS his name. No, not really. And it was one of those scenes where Duo is talking about how crazy Heero is. Not like THOSE are hard to find... Anyway, the philosophy raises a lot of questions, and it is something you have to put thought into. The chief difference between it and some other things *cough*Eva*cough*: It makes SENSE in the end. Yessir, I love Gundam. I think I'll just eat rice and watch Gundam for the rest of my life... *sigh*
One other thing, I want to just say to those of you who do not approve on my stance on the end of Harry Potter that I only advocate death of the main character when it's appropriate, and Gundam is the perfect example. If Heero had died, the story would have been all wrong. Because the entire point of the Gundams is that they fight the losing battles, and they miraculously win. That's the romance of the Gundams, and why I think it is the best story I've ever heard told. The death of Heero would have been pointless, and would not have allowed for the one thing this series pushes for most: Hope. I was telling Stephen at the Citrus Sale, if you can figure out what a person values, you know how they work and what they think. Hope is the MOST important thing to keep with you always, and that's why the Gundams inspire people. Now I'm done sparkling over Gundam.
P.S. They credit the opening song as "Just Communication" until the very end. Whoops...
Er-- I support Cheryl and her LJ post. You can read it if you're motivated enough to click on my sidebar/friends page.
Yeah, I'm sure I have more to say, but I can't remember it. Oh well. Jaa na.

Woah. It's a long time since I've blogged. And by long time, I mean a few days. Well, I shall try to remember all the stuff that happened.
Citrus "chillout" - Line of the day: "Before you ask, no, I will not run him over." "Oh, c'mon. Ten points."
It was actually pretty slow today. I dropped the last box though because my left hand couldn't get a grip on it. Stupid box.
Winter "chillout" - Kim lost the DDR tournament. For shame. Christine and I rummaged about and duped a freshman into giving up whipped cream on two (disgraceful) hot chocolates. And that is the end to the MB money.
Sketchbook - I HATE HUM!
It wouldn't even be so bad if I hadn't been so rudely awakened this morning. Of course, my rude awakening turned into a character idea. But I can still complain.
FDTF - According to my sources, the FDTF will be closing forever on the 20th of January, which is in three days. I had some good times with that dog...
No snow day was STOOPID!
The Ulrey had no voice yesterday.
I am in Optics and Modern Physics Lab. And the peasants rejoiced. Speaking of getting things, omedetou to Katana.
Even though the lyrics to "White Flag" have been on Vigilance for a while, I caught something new today. Yeah.
Watched GundamW for about three hours this morning. DDRed, Gundamed, Star Trekked last night. Which brings me to:
The Coolest Character on DS9!
OMG, I've always thought Bashir was awesome, but I am now doubly confirmed in thinking this. I does sort of bother me he's a doctor, but I'm going to look past it due to his utter coolness. For example: Everyone is working when Bashir comes into Ops. (Dialouge summarized)
Bashir: OMG, you will NEVER guess who just talked to me! *no answer* Garak! The spy!
Sisko: We don't KNOW he's a spy...
Bashir: But he is! You should have heard him!
Dax: What do think he wants with you, Julian?
Bashir: Federation medical secrets? Rest assured Commander, they're safe with me. Oo! Maybe you should put a monitoring device on me!
O'Brien: *look of skepticism and annoyance*
He's SO cute! As Katana would say, he's the kind of guy you "just want to take home and feed cookies." Or somethign like that. Yeah, I'm done.
Steamed Anza!!!!11
Er... I'm babysitting later today. I don't think anything else interesting happened, so it's time to watch some more GUNDAM!!!

EVERYONE should look at Amanda's LJ (see friends page) for Sunday, Jan 11. I am NOT kidding. Seriously. Do it. Now.
CALCULUS DEATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*coughs*
I just explained some Japanese on the Animelyrics list.
I didn't even know this custom still existed:
(At CLC) "So, you go to Jefferson? Or is that your boyfriend's?"
No, really, this is mine. Even when I didn't have a letter jacket and I did have a boyfriend I was not the wearer if his jacket. Or course, this was mostly likely because I had another jacket AND that I don't believe in jackets. But even if I didn't have a jacket and I did want one, one would assume HE would need his jacket. And if he's responsible enought to bring his, then you shouldn't take it. Moral of this story is... There is not moral.
Katana really needs to call me. And she needs to tell me about Braddock's physics teachers.
I have SOOO much work to do this week. I NEED it to snow tommorrow. Or Thursday. Or both. Preferably tommorrow. Well, preferably both, but...
I need to study. And to eat beacause I am HUNGRY. *mini-celebration* Okay. Yoshi. Wish me not-death.

Wow. I can play 2/3 of the mallet piece, the first third and the last third, about 20 beats under the correct tempo. Whoa. Of course, there is no way I will be able to ever play the snare piece. And the timpani bit isn't looking good for the home team...
I hate Domeneech. So much so that I will spell his name wrong. When class started there were about six people in the room including sensei. I am impressed by the stupidity of our school system.
Kim had a cool purple hammer.
And I shall not go into the general badness of today.

I am SO cold!!!
Now that I've got that off my chest...
Just finished watching the quintessential Dr. McCoy episode, "For the World is Hollow and I have Touched the Sky". d00d, every other word is capatalized... It was pretty good, but also kinda gross. I mean, McCoy's OLD.
Excited for the first run of my new TI-89 in action!! Calc homework...
Had Band Camp flashbacks to day at break. "AH!!! HORSEFLY!!" You know the drill.
Class was pretty... class-ish. I think we should move the Moon into that thing we were talking about in Astronomy so it exploses and Earth gets a ring.
GS tonight. Need cookie sheet...
Quite the few people were dead today, including, but not limited to, Amanda, Andy, Erin, and, apparently, my dear Keeikins. Who has Chicken Pox. *shrugs* I suppose it fits her childish nature to be treated to a childhood disease. Of course, one wonders how she got it since I would conjecture most of the people in high school have already had it.
Er- Been remarkably chipper today. Especially to DJ. Stephen Hilber thought I was going to strangle him because I was being so pleasant. I think it's the same thing as Duty said when he was like, "What do you want? You want something." And I actually didn't. Well, other than to say, "Hello, Duty," and get a response...
Lastly, most recently I have been treated to a most hope-inducing bit of insight. Oh, and a cry of shame beacuse I do not know the Japanese word for "frown." Of course, I suppose it speaks of good things that I've never had to use it...
So. Calc. Yes.

Guess what I should be doing? Practicing for all district band!!
Er, actually I have a few things to blab about.
First - When you are sick you have plenty of time to blog/check the boards and post something interesting *cough*Helm officer*cough*.
Second - *stuff comes before this but it is not funny*
Me: Why did you give a *one year old* rice?
Mom: Because you liked it.
See? See? We're childhood sweethearts destined to be together! *sigh* It's so romantic...
Third - Wondering if I should go to Atlanta to play a stupid part I don't want to play in a band I don't want to be in just for the sake of spending four days with my friends but also with people who drive me NUTS and I will probably end up killing.... Hmmm...
Fourth - Who knows where I can find a learning styles test?
Fifth - Kim couldn't remember her list, so...
Trickster's Choice by Tamora Pierce does NOT include an aprentice. It kind of includes an animal companion.... Well, you'll see. I recommend this book, however, because... Remember how Neal was so awesome and you kind of wished PotS was about him instead of Kel? Well, Nawat's like that. Except that Aly is totally awesome too. And witty. And Nawat is so cute!! You just want to take him how and cuddle him and feed him cookies and warm milk (Note to self: stop picking up expressions from Katana). Anyway, read it. A return to the downright coolness of Alanna without the bad writing. Or Alanna's whinyness in the beginning. And it has these awesome quotes:
"Youth and skill!" "Age and Treatchery!" "Go, don't let that old lady cut you!" "Who's side are you ON?" etc. (I don't want to spoil it)
"[Bow d00d] is a nice man. He says I am only young once. He also says that when I am ready to marry, he will help me with the bride price. Do you have a bride price? What is a bride price?"
Sixth - Quote desu:
So, it's the new year. Where do I begin from here? Where do I go?
For starters I'm definitely leaving a certain someone alone. probably avoiding them. I bet I was just annoying anyway.
I should be trying to stop doing a couple certain things. But I like them in a very twisted way.
I want to lose a bit of weight to get back down to where I was at the beginning of the year, or close to it.
I want to continue to get good grades
I want to spend time with friends. More time.
I want to abuse the luxury that sarah O lives within a short walking distance of me.
I want to smile when I get up and be happy i'm going to school.
I want to realize it's okay to have a crush on someone
I want to not be afraid of a relationship or getting close
I want to tell me friends how awesome they've been through all the hard times when I'm been down
I want to bake.
I want to have time to draw.
I want to be able to eat bagels.
I want to get first at district band and All-state.
I want to prove to Mr Holder that I'm good.
I want to be able to show people my pain
I want to be able to be in control
I want memories of junior year that aren't of caffiene, late nights, stress, crying, pain, and studying.
But moreover, I just want to curl up in a ball and rest.
So now I'm going to copy Cheryl in true me fashion and modify them ALL so they fit. Cheryl, I'm sorry. Changes in bold.
For starters I'm definitely stopping leaving a certain someone alone. Just because we have unusual circumstances doesn't mean we can NEVER talk again. I have to start heling myself, and this is a good chance to get it back to the way it was.
I want to lose a bit of weight to make myself look sleeker, NOT because I'm anorexic :P.
I want to continue to get good grades, and bring up the ones that need some fixing.
I want to spend time with old friends. You know, like Cheryl?
I want to smile when I get up and be happy I'm going to school.
I want to realize it's okay to have feelings.
I want to not be afraid of a relationship or getting close.
I want to tell my friend how awesome she's been through all the hard times when I'm been down. Oh, and having to deal with me in general.
I want to have time to make music.
I want to be able to show people my pain.
I want to be able to smile again.
I want to stop eating so much just to cover my depressing feelings.
I want to stop living in the past and pay attention to the present.
I want to have courage. True courage.
I want to actually acomplish things.
I want to prove to my mother that I'm not a lo0ser who can't handle her course load. I'm only half a lo0ser...
I want to remember only good times.
I want to say all the things I've been holding back.
I want to be able to trust him again.
I want memories of junior year that aren't stress, crying, pain, and studying.
But moreover, I just want to curl up in a ball and rest.
Seventh - Duck-san came today!! Poor Duck-san...
Eighth - I know we'll be prepared for fire because of the FOUR TIMES the fire alarm went off today...
Now I'm gonna play X. Wheee!!

NEWS!!
My brother an his little friends are DDRing and failing miserably. It is (almost) not even funny.
posted by Cap'n Cosmo at 4:14 PM
So the buzz on everyone's blog is Vicky's party. I find it necissary to comment myself. Val was there?? *cries* Stupid parents. We were home in time. I, instead, DDRed the night away after watching the second half of Gone with the Wind. *weighs things carefully* DDR, Val, DDR, Val, DDR and Sleep!, nonono... Val... (Kim gets it.)
I am thouroughly unsurprised that Dr. Dell does not have the problem set up.
Parents are going to the movies.
And now I have to do stuff. Jaa na.
