Check out my friend, Dave Chow. He's going for a Ph.D in the Neurobiology program (slightly different from us Neuroscience kids ^_~) and he is amazingly musically talented. :3 Listen to his stuff! I'm plugging it cause it's good.
If I ever make a videogame, he is totally writing the music for it. XD
Pictures of the Six Flags adventure with Annie! :3 Also, some camwhoring cause cool stuff came in the mail today. ^_^v
Highlights!
- In line for our first ride, Goliath. And I'm being silly already. X3
- My "this ride is lame" face. :3 Hey, it was build in 1971. Not a very exciting coaster after Goliath and Scream.
- I'm wet already! This one isn't the big one. This one dried up. The big one didn't. =___=
- The big one. I was so shocked at how wet I was. XD Best face evar.
- I am wet. Wet wet wet wet wet. This is me, right after the Roaring Rapids ride, making a beeline for Initial D V.1
- Version One! Observe how I am going down a straightaway and how tilted the steering wheel has to be. Stupid broken machines.
- Version Two! Not as brokeass.
- Afterwards, at the gate. You can still see exactly how soaked I am.
The rest are here
And now...camwhoring. XD
You'll never guess what came in the mail today. I love it so much I'm going to snuggle it and wuggle it in my sleep. XD
The hilarious thing that Annie learned today was that I have a one-track mind when it comes to multi-track drifting. XD
There were about 4-5 arcades at Six Flags. One had Initial D Arcade Stage V.1, and two or three had V.2. :D So of course being the IniD-tard that I am, I had to try them out. :D It was pretty dangerous. *laughs* The V.1 machine I tried out was so bad that the correct axis for the wheel was actually tilted 90 degrees counterclockwise, so I had to hold my wheel off center to drive straight. Needless to say it was horrible when I was trying to turn corners. O_O;;
And then I saw a V.2 machine, but decided that I'd go on the Roaring Rapids ride first. BIG MISTAKE. I came back sopping wet. I was wet enough that about 80% of my body was completely soaked, the rest was mildly damp. XD My entire back, ass, and legs were wet. So I stuck 4 tokens in the V.2 machine anyway, but it ate it and I had to get the manager to come and fix it for me. I think he must've given me about 10 free games in the process or something. O_O;; So I sat around for a very, very long time to play IniD. XD *laughs* I sure got my $1 worth of V.2. And when I finished, I left a wet spot, cause my ass was still soaked through. XD Hahaha, wet spot. Riven will laugh at that reference.
So while we were driving out to dinner today and stopped at a red light, I look across the street to an arcade and I go, "Hey, is that Version 3? XD" And lo and behold, we drove past it and it was Initial D V.3. :3 I have the best IniD-dar EVAR! *laughs* Anyways, enough about IniD, how about some Six Flags?
It was a lot of fun. :D There will be pictures and video forthcoming. I've discovered my favorite rides are the sit-down rides where you ride in a cart. I am not big on the stand-up or dangle rides like Batman and Riddler's Revenge. I have no idea why, but they make me sick. Might have something to do with my head banging about the shoulder rest...I pronounce that the best rollercoasters are Viper and Goliath. Didn't get to try X cause Annie wussed out on me. Guess I have to go again sometime. ^_^ Yay, jet coasters! I feel like a little kid. :D Or like I'm playing a dating sim cause I've just been on a long yuuenchi date. *laffo*
Anyways...not gonna be home until late tomorrow, methinks. I was only planning to stay for one night, but Annie has kidnapped me and convinced me to stay for another night. :3
Going to Six Flags with Annie tomorrow! :D Yays! *excited* I haven't been to an amusement park in years, so this will be fun. :3 I'm looking forward to it.
And while I'm at it...
UCLA, FINAL FOUR!
^_____^ It's so nice to finally have a team to cheer on.
Y'know guys...
I've been thinking.
I really ought to move all my fanfiction, rose.is.rain, off my MIT account. Some of my non-fandom MIT friends have found it before, and I'm not sure it's actually cool with MIT's fair use policy to have pr0n up there. o_o;; Even if it's textual pr0n. While academics like Professor Henry Jenkins might well be intrigued, I guess it's not very kosher. MIT doesn't care right now, but one day they might be. And hell, what if one of my professors is poking about Google for information and happens to find all my fanfiction? Sure, it has no bearing on whether or not I'm a good scientist but sometimes stuff like that is just too much information. XD
In light of that, I ask y'all out there. :3 Any of you guys with fun domain names willing to host my modest fanfiction archive? :D
:D Sakuragi this awesome TV show stream running in his apartment 24/7. XD They have all sorts of awesome shows up there, including geeky things like Star Trek and Red Dwarf. ^_^ So of course, since series 4 was playing, I hopped over to catch my two favorite Series 4 episodes, White Hole and Dimension Jump. It is good having a nerd who lives next door to me. :3 *high fives*
and since I'm still gushing about how awesome Samurai Champloo was (I can't believe it took me this long to finish it, it's up there on my list of favorite anime along with Trigun and Cowboy Bebop), I think I want to cosplay Jin. :3 My hair'll be just about the right length by the time I go to cons, and I can keep my glasses on. Though I suppose to be complete correct I'd need to wear my old glasses (they're more Jin's shape), and wear my contacts. ^_~
I'd be the cutest, smallest, grinniest Jin evarrrrrrrr.
Somebody be my Mugen. :D
...
I failed Neuroanatomy. I got a C+, but anything below a B- is failing in graduate school.
I'm going to have to take it again next year.
... ;____________;
I'm too tired and burnt out to even cry.
I just slept for 12 hours straight.
Didn't get drunk tonight, actually. XD After I got back from karaoke and food with Annie, I finished watching SamChamp and then went a-searching for Mugen/Jin fanfiction.
I crashed at about midnight cause I was so dead. XD It's been a long time since I've crashed that early.
Anyways, I think I may break out the Umeshuu later tonight.
I think I did all right on the test. Not sure if I passed. =_=;; I think I did. I did much better on that test than I did the others. There were a couple places where I had to guess, but I guessed correctly on most of them. *crosses fingers* I really don't want to take this class again.
EDIT: Met a new kid at the arcade yesterday, playing Initial D. :3 Found out this morning that he lives in my apartment complex, on my floor, RIGHT NEXT DOOR. *laff* What the chances of another Initial D-tard living next door and us having never ran into each other before? But wow...awesomeness. XD
Shit dude...I didn't sleep well at all last night (just six hours, cause I'm so nervous the for the test which is in...an hour and a half. O_O), but I had just had one of the coolest dreams ever. I woke up at 3am from this dream, and I had to repeat it over and over in my head so I wouldn't forget, cause I didn't want to get up and blog it right then.
I was in the middle of a Jin/Mugen sandwich last night. HAWT. *drools all over self* I haven't dreamt anything interesting lately, so I'm glad my pre-neuroanatomy-test dreams were Samurai Champloo. XD
Anyhoos, so I'm traveling around Japan alone and I stop at this ryokan (Japanese-style inn) for the night. The bathroom to this place totally creeped me out (no idea why), so I just didn't feel secure sleeping alone in the dark. Next to my room are Jin and Mugen. They're about to go to sleep, so I poke my head in the doorway and ask if I can sleep in their room tonight. They don't particularly care, so they just say, "sure."
I'm about to lie down on the futon when Jin and Mugen climb into the other futon together and cuddle. It's the cutest thing I've ever seen, so instead of saying anything or laying in my futon, I go and cuddle with them. XD Mugen rolls me over so I'm between him and Jin. I have a leg wrapped around Jin's waist, Mugen's got a leg wrapped around mine, and we sleep like that all night. At some point in time, Mugen was also reaching around me to grope Jin.
We wake up in the morning and eat breakfast. Jin is sipping tea, Mugen's just lounging.
"How long have you guys been together?" I ask.
Mugen shrugs and says, "Meh, I don't know."
Jin says, "Two years."
I ask, "So you guys just met and hooked up? And you've been together ever since?"
Jin says, "pretty much."
I ask them if they've been to Minoo yet, this nice suburb outside of Osaka. My favorite ryokan is there. There's mountains and a famous waterfall. Jin just smiles and Mugen grins and nods, in that yup-we've-been-there-and-had-wild-sex sort of way. I see that Mugen is fiddling around with his mp3 player, which is the size of a small bucket. I ask him how he managed to get an mp3 player like that.
Mugen said, "Oh. I just strapped on this 100 gig hard drive. You wanna borrow it?"
I think I declined because the thing was too heavy. XD
...and that's all I remember. Good thing I still remembered the good parts. X3 Jin/Mugen sandwich. BEST DREAM EVER. (Except for the one where I thought I was Sol Badguy and therefore didn't have class. That was pretty good too.)
*thumbs up* I hope I rock this test.
Then I'm going to go back to sleep...and try to claim my awesome Jin/Mugen dream back. Cept this time, instead of being in the middle, I just want to watch. ^_^v
That's an A- in Japanese. X3 W00T.
It was not nearly has hard and time consuming as Japanese last term. XD Mostly for the lack of a paper I write. Presentations are infinitely easier. :3
Now I just have to pass Neuroanatomy tomorrow. *crosses fingers*
I have never studied four and a half days for ONE test. Ugggh...I'm going insane. And it's not just the DDR music I have in the background.
When I finish my exam on Friday I am going to:
1) Run to the arcade and play Initial D for two straight hours (or until somebody kicks me off the machine for hogging it)
2) go karaoke with Annie
3) get drunk. Really, really, really drunk.
I got called into the department head's office today. :/ He wanted to talk about my grades. ¬_¬ I haven't been doing so hot in neuroanatomy. It's a combination of me not knowing everything I need to know, 9am testing, and the quarter system which is killing me. If it weren't for Initial D, you guys would probably be visiting me at the funny farm and buying me padded wallpaper for my birthday.
Anyways, I'm currently hanging on the edge of a B-/C+ and anything below a B- is considered a fail. I think I'm at a high C+ right now. Which is obnoxious, because I feel I know way more than C+ worthy material, I just don't happen to know the right stuff sometimes. That is incredibly frustrating.
Anyways, in light of Dr. Levine giving me a boot to the ass (you should've seen me when he contacted me today. I was panicking.), I am going to disappear for a while. Don't expect to see me online or to answer my IMs. I'm trying to pass a class. This is the first time in my life I've been vaguely close to failing. OUCH.
Dr. Levine offered me to the option to drop the class, but I refused. I'm not the kind to just kind of roll over and drop a class. I was only going to audit Japanese, but I stuck through it and now I have an A there. I'm not going to quit neuroanatomy just cause I'm afraid of taking it and failing. Or because I'm going to shy away from all the work I have to do. My roommate's already dropped it because he needs a 90 on the test to even get the grades he needs. I think I need something around 85. I can do it if I just buckle down and study. The good thing about me is that I work very well and effectively under pressure.
See you guys all after my final on Wednesday. :3 And wish me luck!
So I'm sitting at the arcade playing Initial D...time attacking Tsuchisaka with my FD...and this guy wants to race me. He's got an RX-8, and I start talking to him. He says to me, "I've got that car." And I'm like, "What? An FD?" And he says, "Yeah, it's parked over by the lot on Veteran."
OH MY GOD.
I have never seen an FD in my life, and he has this beautiful yellow FD. I think I almost came when I saw it. I CAME, I'm telling you.
We talked, and I asked him to give me a ride. :3 He did. When he hammered that thing on the streets...I could feel the twin turbos kicking in.
OH MY GOD.
I might've orgasmed, it was so wonderful.
MY LIFE LOVES ME. ^_^ I got a ride in an FD today. Just proves that guys with hot cars get the hot chicks. :3
One of these days, I'm going to own a squee-ful car too. ^_^ *melts with joy*
Last day in lab...and I'm too lazy to do anything. XD I guess I could go and take a look at my sections in the microscope again, but I think somebody's already using it. Oh well.
I'll just sit here and pretend to be productive by having a paper in front of me. And I am also amused that Omi has been steering clear of my blog of late because of me talking about KH2. :3 We had an interesting discussion this morning about "V for Vendetta." I really reallly like the character of V. He's very interesting, and I think he's the most compelling person in the entire movie. I might be convinced to go see the movie again if my roomies want to go. I mean, it was a way more enjoyable ride that Kingdom of Heaven was, and I went to go see that three or four times. XD Knife fights huzzah?
Japanese finals are over! OVAR! I kicked that test's ass, despite having not brought my electronic dictionary to class today (oops), and having to borrow an eraser from a classmate, Mike. I expected the reading to be hard, but it totally wasn't. :/ It was already something we'd read in class, and I didn't even have to go over the thing to know the answers to the questions. I think the sensei realized that last term's tests were too hard, so this term they're overcompensating and making them too easy. Oh well, I can't complain. I hope I get that A- I've been wanting. :3
Next term...we're watching Densha Otoko! XD Yaaaay! A story about a 2ch nerd who manages to get the girl. :3 Hopefully we'll be seeing the movie...and not the drama... ¬_¬ I do so hate J-Dramas. They are so full of cheese.
I think there's a drinking party at my house tonight. o__O Durrrrhhh...I haven't been drunk in a long, long time. X3 So yay.
I forgot to turn boost off and lost to a guy in the Bunta mobile on Tsuchizaka outbound. :/ After he fished me on Akina Snow in my FD. I made him pay for the next round, but still.
The losing because I forgot to press the brake for boost off really burns.
*annoyed*
I think I was asleep for about over half of class today. Ugh, that's cause I went to bed at 3am, studying for the Japanese final today. :/ Part two of Japanese final is tomorrow...and unfortunately that's the hard part. *dies* I had the most wonderful dream in the world too. ;___; I dreamt that the USPS finally found my box of Comiket doujinshi and artbooks that got lost in the mail a year ago and I finally got it returned to me. You have no idea how overjoyed I was to see my Guilty Gear artbook and all my Comiket swag again. ...and then my alarm clock woke me up, and all I wanted to do was go back into my fantasy where I had all my doujin again.
I like my fantasies. Pr0n happens in them. :3
I was so tired after class that I couldn't keep my eyes open when walking to the student center, and I had an even harder time playing Initial D with my eyes practically closed. Note to self: unlike Bunta, Skuld cannot see through her eyelids. :/ I must work on the eyelid no jutsu.
No hachi-roku on the way to class today. ;___; Now I'm sad. I was so looking forward to seeing it too. *snifflies* To make up for the sadness, I may just sit around today and play some KH2. I think I need to build myself up a little bit. Find stuff to mix my ultimate weapon with. Can I run around the rest of the world with a hottie in my party? Crap, I don't remember.
Grrrhhh...need more KH2. (If only I could have KH2 and Initial D at the same time... :D) RIKU~ `<3 ^______^
So...
I just got back from a sneak preview of "V for Vendetta" show on the UCLA campus. I've haven't read the graphic novel (have I ever been into non-Japanese comics? XD) So there are no spoilers. Feel free to read.
First, V for Vendetta has been selling itself as an action movie. It is NOT an action movie. If you're looking for Matrix-style cool knife fights, you're in for disappointment. What it is, is another trite take on rebellion against an Orwellian-style totalitarian government. It has heavy overtones (so heavy they're like a nailbat to the head) of today's society and has cheesy lines and a kitschy ending that only the Wachowski brothers could have written.
If you're looking for a next "The Matrix" this is not your movie. This movie will not start any sort of revelation or revolution, but it will kinda make you ambivalent about the last two hours you just spent watching the film. It's an interesting film, told in an interesting way. It is paced poorly--slow most of the time and at other times too fast--and whatever plot twists its has are quickly washed away by time progression (not plot progression, sadly) and forgotten.
Natalie Portman's British accent is a little bit off. Really. If they wanted somebody Natalie Portman-like who had a real British accent they could've asked for Keira Knightley. She's still pretty hot with her head shaven though. Hugo Weaving is amazing, but unfortunately I was praying and praying throughout the film that I'd magically wake up in the Matrix, cause that would have been a relief.
The film tries to be powerful and meaningful, but all it can manage is to half-ass both, and you're left wondering how something with such a cool concept---oh wait, nevermind.
That said, the pros of the movie are:
1) What knife fights it does have are kinda awesome
2) Natalie Portman
3) Lesbians kissing
4) Hugo Weaving in a mask kickin' ass
5) The 1812 Overture and Beethoven's Vth Symphony (harhar)
6) Dominos. I really hope they did that scene on the computer, cause it would have TOTALLY SUCKED to set that up and screw up in the middle.
One would think that #3 makes up for everything...but no. It doesn't.
I saw that Trueno again today. Parked in the exact same spot when I was walking to school this morning. So far, I have resisted the urge to molest touch it. I thought about writing a note, but I was kind of in a hurry to campus, so I didn't. I think I'll just admire this 86 from afar. Or at least bring a camera so I can take a picture of it. God I wish I had a camera phone. XD
Annie got me tickets to a sneak preview of "V for Vendetta" on campus today. :3 I'm very excited, the movie looks totally awesome. I've been hearing about it for almost a year now! :D Natalie Portman is t3h hot, even with a shaved head.
I'd hit it. XD
I'll give y'all a review of it when I get back home today...if I'm not too busy studying for part one of my Japanese final tomorrow! *choke*
Somtimes the morning makes me hyper. This is probably because I had coffee this morning and I'm running off of about 5 hours of sleep. O.o The my GI tract hates the coffee, but I do like being awake for class. Anyways...
I'm blogging from the neuroanatomy lab because...
I SAW AN 86! :3 A real AE86 hatchback Trueno. All black (not a panda, unfortunately), from USC (booo) with a sticker from Takumi Project.
INITIAL D-TARDS GO!
I was RPing with Riven, and my fingers were just flying across the keyboard, and I just couldn't stop writing. My post ended, and my fingers were so far ahead of me that I had to start a fic to catch up with them.
Thankfully, they took me far enough to manage to finish it. :3 And I was just so excited that writing inspiration came right before final exams, that I had to plug it. XD And ZOMG! It's not Initial D related for a change. :3
This Simple Light, a fluffy, KH2 ending spoilery, sort of Sora/Riku. :3 Their love is so eternal and true. ^___^ *squee*
Just poked around for the Kingdom Hearts 2 secret ending.
The only thing I have to say is, "WTF."
WTF did they do to Kingdom Hearts? WHAT THE FUCK.
;_________; I just beat Kingdom Hearts 2.
That game is so beautiful. The fight cut scenes in the middle of the battles are the best things I have ever seen in my entire life. Thank you Squaresoft, for making my life more complete. Being able to fight alongside Riku is the best thing in the entire world.
This game has totally convinced me that Riku and Sora are totally in love with each other. There was not one moment when they were together when I was convinced otherwise. KYAAAAAAAAAAA!!
Now I need to go and find myself lots and lots and lots of Riku/Sora yaoi. Anybody got recs? Maybe I'll go write some... >_____>
I think I may be nearing the end of Kingdom Hearts 2. :3 I'm guessing about 3-4 more hours, and I'll be done.
At this point, I have two things to say:
1) Roxas/Axel OTP!
2)RIKUUUUUUU! Your love for Sora will never die! ~<3
KYAAAAA! Now it's 4am, and I go to bed.
Had to get up at 6am on Thursday to make it to a conference at UC Irvine. XD I somehow managed to oversleep, and made it to campus within half an hour. That's gotta be a record. O___O Thanks for assistance from the campus shuttles around here. :3
The Spinal Cord Conference was interesting, but I was so sleep deprived I couldn't stay awake through half the talks (the speakers sucked and they were boring anyway). XD I'm going to be the worst scientist ever. *laughs*
And oh yeah. :3 Hour and a half season finale to Battlestar Galactica tonight. FUCKWIN!!!
(I've also noticed that I need to stop RPing when I'm playing Kingdom Hearts. I just can't get into the RPing mood if I'm running around as Sora thwacking things. It's just hard to write something sexy and Initial D when all I have is keyblades on my mind and Donald Duck talking to me in Japanese. XD Apologies to Riven for the past week of not being able to concentrate very well. XD I'll try to cut down on the simultaneous video game/RP thing. XD *laff* Tonight was especially bad because I was KH2-ing and taking a break for The Daily Show, while my roommates and a guest was around. o_o
Oh my social life, cutting into my internet life. What shall I do?)
EDIT: So guys...you know that truck drift video I tried to post about in this entry?. I finally found it. You can download it here
That Neuroanatomy test killed me dead. :/ I'm trying real hard and I'm still only on the edge of a B-. It's quite obnoxious. =___= I think the saving grace will be my final exam in two weeks. It'll fucking have to be, cause I AM NOT RETAKING this fucking class. *bangs head against wall*
So took the test, sat around in lab section, went to Japanese, and then went to lab and didn't get out until 6:30pm. o_O 9am to 6:30pm. *dies* Ugh, what a day. I played Initial D for about an hour (played around with my R32 and then with my shiny new RX-8 which I named BUTSX for all y'all out there), went back home, cooked for myself, met up with Annie for a Japanese assignment, and the next thing I know it's 11pm and I am dying of exhaustion.
Somehow, I manage to stay up to 3am anyway, RPing and talking on the phone with Riven who is intelligent and fun to talk to. ^_^
I think I'm going to slack off for the rest of this week...and then work my ass off next week. =___= Grrghblargle.
The irony kind of slaps me in the face once again. I've been holding off getting my card for my FD renewed, because I was afraid the machine on campus didn't have any ink. So I was saving my card renewal for the machines at the Westwood Arcade, which I know they upkeep regularly.
Well...guess what. I got my card renewed, and not only did I get a picture I already have, the machine was out of ink. So except for my 10 stars, the rest of it is actually blank.
I got a irony two-by-four to the head. Thanks, life. =____= I'm laughing inside. I really am.
Somewhere.
I even tried to write BUTSX on it with a Sharpie, but since it is made of shiny plastic, it doesn't hold ink. At least not the Sharpie kind. :/ I am all kinds of unhappy. I would put a sticker on it that says BUTSX, but I'm deathly afraid the extra layer of sticker will cause my card to jam. And there would go two and a half months of hard work.
...I think I'm gonna wait a bit until I get my RX-8. So I can be sure I get some machine WITH INK.
Wow, Atlantica is the lamest world EVER. It's so disappointing, cause the rest of the gameplay in Kingdom Hearts II is so much win. :/ I mean, if you're going to do something rhythm related, at least make it fun and cool like Guitaroo Man. Oh well, it was easy as hell so I'm not going to complain too much.
I need to stop playing KHII, I have a huge test on Monday and I've studied a bit but not even close to enough. O_O *hurk* Must not fail this one, I think I'm barely scraping by as it is. I need to fucking ace this test and the final. ;_____;
And oh yeah. :D :D :D :D
First part of the Battlestar Galactica season two finale tonight! :D w00t! ~<3
If I get a new card in Initial D, what should my name be?
SKULD
1HDLT
BTARD
4CHAN
CYLON
SNAFU
FUBAR
URMOM
SLASH
YAOI
LAFFO
GHEI
TURKS
HARBL
TKFAG
BRDGT
PO-JU
MOOT
FISH
MORDR
ATRAP
ATARP
BUTSX
WHUT
or whatever else you might think appropriate.
I rarely get menstrual cramps. Maybe about once a year it's really bad, most other times I have no other indication that it's going to be that time of the month. Maybe I told my friends one too many times "I don't get cramps" or Jennella passed her cramps-of-doom onto me...but OW.
Not as FUCK OW as some people I know, but for somebody who normally feels nothing...OW. :/
This just happens to coincide with the day the Initial D machines are down in the school arcade. =___= And I was looking forward to screaming all the way down Akina too. Oh well. Gonna have to wait for the real arcade tonight, maybe. Since I've finished LotS once with my R32...I think I'm going to be a sellout now and try out an RX-8.
OOPS. BIG FUCKING OOPS.
So I did the whole fighting shit-tons of Heartless in Hollow Bastion thing (GAWD THAT SCENE IS SO COOL) before ever finishing up/going to Pride Land, Atlantica, or Halloween Town. Now those areas are blocked off. FUCK.
Am I screwed? =___= Can I go back and do them later? FUCK. AUGH.
Phiiiiii ;_______; *wibble face* やちまったよ。どうする？;____;
EDIT: Okay, I should read my LJ feed before panicking. :D Thanks, Phi and StarCreator, I feel much better now. ~<3 *luff*
I finally got some therapy this morning. :3 They've temporarily moved the arcade machines in the lounge by the sushi/udon place, which is probably even worse for my wallet because I go to the sushi/udon place regularly. XD Now all I have to do is play Initial D, go get sushi, and then play more Initial D.
I have one more play on my FD before I have to switch cards again. I was afraid the school machine didn't have cards or ink, so I just dicked around Tsuchisaka with my R32. Beat some old times, but meh. Then I remember that I haven't time attacked in a long time in my R32, so beating my old records by 5 seconds isn't all that special.
Probably gonna hit up the Westwood arcade tonight so I can kick Takumi's ass, lose horribly to Bunta (the only place the R32 doesn't turn like love is on Akina =___= There it just turns like crying.), and pick up a new card. Maybe a new tune for my FD too? I wonder if I can get Keisuke's post, "Waaahhh! I slipped in the oil and crashed!" tune. ¬_¬ I don't think I can... ._. *weep*
I spent a lot of money that could've gone toward Initial D copying a 30-page article at the library today. :3 It's an article about the gender-bending in the shoujo genre of manga/anime/shousetsu. Sometimes I really I was a sociology graduate student...but then I remember that neuroscience pays me, and that my results from my experiments so far are REALLY FUCKING AWESOME. ^_^v I know what my real calling is. :3
And oh yeah...that bigoted fundamentalist showed back up on campus today. *sighs* People like him piss the hell out of me. PISS THE FUCKING HELL outta me. :/ I just want to punch him, but I think that's what he wants. He wants people to get pissed off at him so he can feel justified in his retarded beliefs. *rolls eyes* He's always got a crowd around him arguing with him. People like that just won't listen to reason.
I need to get one of them Reason things. A la Snowcrash.
Oh, and Kingdom Hearts II is fuck cool, cause I'm at the Hollow Bastion Fight 1000 Heartless part. Weird though, I haven't even gone through my first passes of Atlantica, The Lion King, or Halloween Town yet. O_o Which is probably why this is going to be ridiculously hard for me. Oh well. :3 I'll make sure I get everything right on my second go through in English. RAH RAH RAH ~<3
EDIT: It's almost 4pm, and I feel like going to sleep for the next of 24 hours. =_____= Must...play Initial D before I...pass out from exhaustion. I got 4 and a half hours of sleep again last night. Wow grad school, and I thought that weaning myself to 6 hours was bad, grad school is teaching me to live with less than five. I never thought I'd be more stressed out than I was at MIT, but life has one upped me again.
