Well, well, well!

I just wanted to use that title. I've been using some retro-speak lately and I love it all. I'm going to try and use 'well, well, well' next! Anyways, news of the late. Things are weird but comfortable - mostly! I didn't bend and go to the beach, but neither did the group because the plan was killed. But we did eat Korean at SG, and I loved it. It was a delicious meal and an over all fun day. And the evening with Nanu, and mom and grandma to a lesser extent were pleasant as well.

After that, it's mainly been catching ST online, waiting for Monday to try and catch TTGL at least once, and bringing myself to where I want to be. Mostly again. I've been looking over my older stuff and looking over new stuff on gaia, and I've decided to start writing more sample posts, profiles (even if I don't even apply for the rp) and trying my hand at more fanfiction. Probably NMH to a little, mostly original and rebooting my MM-TP fic. I'm also making my game list and checking it twice, as well as heavily reviewing my finances in head. And going over my schedule a bit. I'm proud for how I'm trying to organize myself and hope I can keep it up. And I really need to clean my room (and closet) before Summer is over, and finish at leats 90% of my games. Hope I get to it all. I also want to experiment with cooking starting late July or early/mid-August.

And while I'm dissatisfied that my nightly prayers are cut short or inexistent, I haven't given up trying. And while nothing can really make up for that, a part of me feels comforted and overjoyed by Blue Moon3's ST stories. I am really going to have to review on them and show my love soon (and catch up on dA).

Well, I'm going to catch some Uhura TOS scenes and maybe read more, and head to bed. Night and a wonderful week to all.

Mwoooh

I really wanna make a website. Mainly to help sort my ideas, and it would be nice to have my graphics up there. Unfortunately, I'm so lazy when it comes to my art that I got nothing to post there. But hopefully I can change that soon. Browsing through people's pages though and being awed, was inspiring and made me drop my head. I wish I weren't so darn lazy. Maybe if I pretend it's a school assignment or something, I'll actually get somewhere.

And I feel so ... torn. I love my break, but a part of me misses school. And if it ain't fall (or spring), I has no money. Curse financial aid. But I did just finish trying to plan my financial aid, so hopefully I'll be able to stick with, or even save myself some money. I feel like I'll need it all when I transfer (but lets hope it'll be better than I think). I'll probably need to keep track of my spending too. ...I had better.

As anxious as I am for school, I'm going to try and milk my break. And pray that my last (hopefully three) semesters at community are wonderful (financially, productively and academically).

Cooking Show Fun Time

Well I was going to post about going to Costco on Friday and how interesting and semi-miserable it was, considering my uncle's pompous and Christian/religious attitude. Trying to twist words and not letting his own be twisted, and his horrible math that probably was perfect in his head (just buy your own pizza!). But it's not as fresh in my mind now, haha.



But I must admit, I've been watching a lot of Heroes lately. And it's just what I thought. A pretty good show. I still don't care for it much. There's no real minority on the show, everything is all over the place and to me, most of all them feel like bad guys, and it seems like Sylar is the only bad guy that is being punished. But I am in love with Gabriel Grey. Maybe just a little bit more than I am with Sylar. Quinto, you're amazing. That's all there is to it.



I haven't been gaming much, but I intend to soon. I passed by the time with a little ToT, but I really want AP. And all those lovely Nintendo games awaiting us this and early next year. And E3! So we will actually know something about Zelda. And I still want Termina damnit. Maybe if I actually bring myself to draw something cool and proper, I can get a Termina based fanart and send it to Nintendo. I don't think they know how many fans Termina has. And while my sketch has gone wonderful, I've forgotten all about inking and coloring, so I hope to get some signifcant and successful practice in on those. And I also want to start my drivers ed (permit session) on Monday. Here's to hoping I can take the test on Wedn or Thurs and actually pass. It's been on my mind a lot, and I even partially dreamed about it last night (yikes). As long as all this doesn't end badly.

Ah, and now for the meat of the post. Cooking! Get it, meat? Yeah. ... So while watching Food Network last night, I almost cried because of the good food and urge to cook. Like, seriously. And now I also feel myself wanting to go vegan-veg. Or mostly anyway. I don't think I can do it entirely. And I love how people make it seem like meat is healthy for you and your diet, but it's so bloody unhealthy. I won't even get into it. But yeah, FN and going on Gaia's Food/Drink subforum made me kind of want to go to culinary school. I thought of having a cafe and all before, but then I thought why not a vegan restaurant? There are so few as it is, and so many vegans and vegatarians. It probably wouldn't be too successful, but still. Maybe. Just maybe. But I just hope I find my place. And soon. And that I get to talk to a counselor about my schedule soon too ^u^'.



Anywho, I can think of nothing more to say now. Except for how much I love Yo-Yo Ma and miss my 5050. I'll be listening to the latter soon ♥. A nice weekend to all and a great day!

Retro Good

Schway, cool beans, bomb diggity, chillax. How old am I? For serious, what got me into these old words? Lawlz. Well, there's something new at least. I can't say that I am actually indies or retro (though I'd like to pretend), but I do love the retro style, and am all for the indies. And actually, I only brought up indies because I saw it in the urban dictionary with retro. That dictionary is my second best friend.

And while using my best friend, I had the smarts enough to use it to help me with my 'IDENTITY CRISIS!'. Meaning, I looked up the definition of nerd and geek. I still don't know which I am, but I'll just take whichever label people want to give me, kehe. Anywho, hopefully I can bring myself to go do something (mildly) productive now. And I'll probably post again later after we've gotten our hair done. I miss Vincent so much! Hopefully we'll have lots of fun. Ta ta for now! (Chip chip, cheerio~?)

Sweet Reminiscence

I am so glad I didn't go back to Puchinri on gaia and that I 'deleted' it. Since I just started using it again (and somehwat minimally), I've been hanging back and eying things. And just earlier tonight I decided to go through the my old posts, mostly to see what others would come across. But I was so surprised and happy! Not only did I roleplay with so many 'friends' so far back, but it was such a fun and vivid time. Everything wasn't uber, advanced lit, but I liked it more. And not only did I just have more fun, but I think I was more creative. My characters certainly were. I miss that time. It also made me realize more the things I grew up and enjoyed, and still do.

Sonic, Legend of Zelda and even Sailor Moon. I even grew up with Kirby a little bit. How could I even start to let these things go? Well, I didn't necessarily, but now I'm seeing again how much I enjoyed them. I want to embrace them even more again. And I'm always happy to open myself to new things and enjoy more new series (like Dragon Quest and all), but now I'm seeing the things I loved again and regaining a stronger passion for them. I suppose it helps that doodling earlier, I was proud of myself. It wasn't great, but I realized I was catching flow and movement, a hint of life, and there was a little bit of a personal style in it. It may be all post-menstraul or something, but I hope I can keep this night and everything that came with it.

For a while now, I'd been worrying about updating and feeling like I had nothing, but now it all feels very worth it. Very much so. And I'm fairly sure there was another game title I thought of alongside Sonic and Zelda, but I don't remember it now. But that's okay too. Wow, now that I think about it... I even played Harvest Moon all those years ago. This Summer, I have to make it about me. Remembering me, finding me and improving me. Enjoying me. I want to finish my old games, start new ones (and finish them), draw more than I ever have at any given time and simply explore. I hope I'm successful. Actually, any attempt is a success. This is a journal I need to look back on often as well.

That's that. Revisit my creativity. Gaming, writing, drawing. And cooking too even! And hunting down new songs to listen to of course. I think I'll have a nice night tonight. And I hope I can actually finish my prayers for once! It feels like an eternity since I said them, properly no less.
EDIT:: Ah, the other was Pokemon! That should have been a no brainer, haha!

Dig it in there...!

Dang, man. Just dang! Shore Leave started out hilarious. I just adore Star Trek, and don't care how old it is. Maybe it is worth it to buy the DVDs. But aside frm Star Trek, I will admit to finding amusement in my own antics. I guess I deserved it. And I'm terribly glad that mom and D-Wayne didn't see it. I don't know where my hissing sound effects come from though, and I feel bad for Taylor that she had to witness that. But seriously. Hair in the eye? In the mouth, sure, I can't take that. Nasty, but I can take that. In the eye, downright ridiculous and painful.

These past few days have been nice and relatively productive idea-wise, and only slightly so otherwise, but I hope for the best! And why do they not seel frozen yogurt in stores!? Like, for serious? Do they just not want me to make my own smoothies? That badly. I'll find a way though. Anyway, I don't know what else to say so I guess I'll go read some SpoHura and sleep! Night all, and take care!

E3 was so hot, I orgasmed when I napped. But seriously, Nintendo just pwned the effing year. I seriously hope a demo for at least one of those (wii!) games is at E for All. Especially the SMG2 demo. I don't even mind that there was no Zelda (as far as I know), simply because that means they must be putting more into it and we already have all these wonders. And forrealies, I need to play Metroid Prime 2 and get 3. Ubisoft did not disappoint either with NMH trailer. And Monado looked interesting too. And when you add in all the other games we already know we're getting, it's just a beautiful fiscal year. Or just, summer, the holidays and then '10. Cuz this year was awesome, in many ways, but '10 is looking fabulous.

And I've been having fun putting myself to graphics and doodling when the moment pops up. And after grandma's birthday, I'm going to jump to try and get on schedule. I'm ecstatic for Summer. I just want to rest. But I'm also eager for the semester. I seriously hope I can quell any lazy urges, especially the threatening ones. I really want to start on my games later this week too. Especially with what I've seen and things like The Conduit coming out (this month!).

Well, I'll leave it there. I wanna try fanart for all these new games. And what I've heard about Zelda. Thank you Miyamoto-sensei! I just wish he said more about Pikmin ;u;.

Shway Way

Missing the old days, but looking forward to what the future holds. It was going to be the catchphrase of an rp of mine, but I think it just summarizes me. I'll have to do an art with it to represent those series I hold close.

These past few days have been so fun and amazing. Climbing in and out of my mom's Mustang's window, hanging with friends, watching Star Trek for the third time, actually accomplishing things and just feeling in a pleasant mood. It feels wonderful, and I hope I can have many days like this even when the semester starts. I also hope to start my driving stuff soon. I really do want my permit at least. It would be so convenient.

Also I need to start looking at my secret recipe site so that I can prepare myself for when the semester begins. I'll probably start cooking those types of dishes three or so weeks before fall begins. I also need to put myself to my art and writing. And if I'm lucky, I'll be able to find a handful of valuable rp partners. NSA are necessary.

I'm also looking forward to the games and trying to finish my own. As well as where the shows are heading. So exciting. I feel like 09 has been a nice year so far, and I hope it continues this way. I have been extremely blessed, and I pray they will continue through.

Well, I guess I better start rounding things up. Or so I say. I hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the week. ♥
