Huh, I haven't blogged in a while...Well, I guess I haven't had much to say really. Just more video games and stuff...Oh, and spring break~ Spent almost the entire week with my best friends and playing soooo much Minecraft. Which also meant that I didn't work on my cosplay at all and theres maybe two or three weeks left until the con. I am so screwed. (>.<)
Aside from that I guess...Minecraft is ridiculously addicting. I don't even know why but I can't stop playing it for some reason. Rawr. Ah well, at least I'm getting my money's worth.
Oh, so I'm blogging from Chicago right now because we're here to pick up my cousin who's visiting from Taiwan. With my Grandma here, that makes two people from there...Maybe we'll get the entire family here eventually, haha.
Also went to Mitsuwa, this Japanese supermarket/bookstore/food court/everything else and got a copy of LaLa DX from January because it features Kaichou wa Maid-sama! but I realized after that it wasn't serialized in DX but the main LaLa...Oh well. And also got the 12th volume of KWMS. Its in Japanese, but I figure when I finish learning the language, I'll be able to read most of it and I'll be able to buy the Japanese manga instead of the overpriced US ones...No wonder we care so much about our manga here...like not leaving fingerprints...We're paying twice as much...Not to say they don't care for their books in Japan of course.
Speaking of Japan, I hope they pull through the earthquake from about two weeks ago. Donate if you can, or even keeping them in your thoughts is good.
On the topic of music: As of yesterday, I've been addicted to BoA's "Energetic". Its from 2009 so I guess it can be considered "old" but its good and I really want to learn the dance...

Action City
So before all the awesomeness, we sat around for an hour and a half waiting for Nick's friend to reply to see if he wanted to go, but he was sick so that didn't happen, then we got lost getting there but...
It was fun~We played Laser Tag and the guns looked like the scanners for price checking in supermarkets, but that's okay, even though there was this boy who just camped in a corner the entire time. Campers are annoying games, I didn't think they'd be so annoying in real life too. There was also bumper cars, though they were more like royal thrones on hovercraft tube things...Its weird to explain. (^3^)
Oh, and I finally drove go-karts for the first time! Since we were all tall enough, we got to go at top speed and it almost gave me more respect for those NASCAR racers because even though they just drive in circles, trying to pass another vehicle is freakin' hard!
Hmm...Oh, and lots of shooting games and DDR; finally, I get to play it on the machine instead of the mats.
After that, we had to drive about twenty minutes away from school to drop off Nick's sister and the Japanese exchange student they're hosting so his mom could take them home, but before that we got lost trying to get on the right highway and I'm pretty sure we transferred between four different freeways. (laugh)
And I got treated to Arby's, which was really nice. (^^) I think the lady on the other end of the order box got really annoyed because we couldn't decide what we wanted and sat there staring at the menu for a good five to ten minutes, but it ended up with him just picking for me. I don't eat at Arby's...ever.
We listened to really loud, pretty good Metallica on the way back and then had to walk a mile from the parking lot that the University use to the dorms and it ended up to be just a really good day. Now I'm just sore because turning on Go-karts made me strain...

Long time no see...
Hmm...it has been a while since I've blogged. I think I've mentioned this before but I keep thinking I posted a few days ago then when I actually look, its been weeks...(=.=)
Well, what's happened? Not much, really. We've been having a study group thing on Friday's for Japanese even though every time, we play games or watch stupid videos, like the bad dubbing of Ghost Stories or DBZ Abridged...Well, its all Nick's fault anyway. (^o^)
Along with study groups we've been going to Japanese Coffee Hour afterward where we just talk in Japanese with students and teachers and stuff. Last Friday they had this Japanese Cultural Society party thing and I went with friends but after eating a takoyaki (which was very good, by the way), I ended up leaving before they started the movie because I didn't know anyone but two people and just sitting there was kind of...awkward. I guess I'm not made for big parties like that.
Um...what else...We finally finished Cowboy Bebop. My goodness it was weird. I think if you're watching it for plot, just watch the first episode and last two. If you care about the side characters, watch the last five. (><)b
Oh, I got invited to go this Action City place or wherever by Nick to go kart and play laser tag and stuff, so hopefully I can go...
And...Well, I'm thinking about a theater major now for the technical stuff, which would be fun, but I guess I'll think about it for a little more...I also have to pay to go watch the opera our stagecraft class was building the set for just so I can write a paper for class...Why do we have to pay? Oh well...(sigh)
I hope its not annoying to text someone for no reason...I wouldn't want to get annoying...
Oh, I re-read "Kyou, Koi wo Hajimemasu" which is so cute...hopefully they upload more chapters soon...And I'm waiting patiently for the new chapter of "Kaichou wa Maid-sama", thanks for the hard work, translators. (^^)
