Meh!!

This shall be very quick as I have a new story idea.
I will be posting less often until I get on top of school or until something actually happens. Since I'm not in any Shakespeare class, most likely it will be about the party plans my friends have and clubs I'm in. It's mostly International Club (formally German Club) and Anime club.
On classes this year, I'm in German 1....I can already speak German just fine so Frau is letting me read most of the time. I have some friends in that class with me, so I'm  happy!
Ciao for now!

I can't sleep

Before I say anything else, I have not forgotten you. I was just reading and writing and school started.
Now I did forget my Les Miserables posts because I couldn't get into the book. So I read Jane Eyre. And I made all my notes on the iPod books. Now I am tired to I'll post more soon. Maybe the highlight pictures of summer.

Not on Les Miserables, but on my first Onigiri!

This is quite a milestone for me, so no way I'm not going to blog. Today, me and my sister (I don't talk about her much but her insight on Japanese culture is useful) were making dinner and had forgotten about the rice in the rice cooker she got for her birthday. We both ran down but it looked fine. We started on our first hand-made Onigiri!
For those who don't know, Onigiri is a Japanese rice ball.
Anyway, right off we had a problem. I had washed my hands just before so not much of a problem for me, but my sis had. The rice kept sticking to our hands. I figured since I washed my hands, it didn't stick as much, so we tried my theory. It worked! (For me) So we made about seven. My last one was the best!! I'll take a picture and put it up when I get the chance.
Normally Onigiri has a bit of seaweed on them, but I had a bad experience with my first seaweed, so there was none in the house.
So to my first Onigiri and a good day in my Renaissance tunic (It was too hot so I wore my tunic and my hair up in a leather barrette I got) and listening to my favourite music! *Kampai!*
Ciao!

Not on Les Miserables, but on reading none the less.

*sigh* what a night of reading...
Many times I have been killed by the effects of the AP Euro curse. For those who don't know,  the curse is basically: Anything you learn is AP Euro, you will find in everyday life, such as books and manga/anime. Now, I have read several books so far with references such as Corn Laws and French Revolution (Lord kill me now). Now, while reading at one in the morning, I found another one.
The Shakespeare Curse. As many of you have read, I was in As You Like It. And if you're in a play, you basically remember it for the rest of you freaking life!
Example 1:
In The Fire Rose, a book by Mercedes Lackey, it references so much bloody European history, I was about to hang myself. Just when I was calming down, they talk about names. The main heroine's name is Rosalind Hawkins. Let us just pause for a moment, shall we?   (For those who don't know Shakespeare off the top of their head, take this pause to go on Wikipedia.) Ya feel my pain now. They even go so far as to mention Shakespeare. Though that is as far as they go.
*Another sigh* Why must school curse me so? It's still August. Even though it has gone by so fast again.
This will be posted in the morning since I can't get any wifi. Notes are quite useful.

On Les Miserables-

I have realized the chapters are just like in Hard Time (Charles Dickens) (Never read it!). Very short, only about a few normal pages long. Because of that, I would be here forever trying to make a post for each one. So only every few would I post something. Since I do get distracted by other books quick easily, I haven't gotten very far. All that has happened so far was Hugo was describing this bishop or priest character. Now I'm all for character development, but get on with it! Get to the interesting part, come on hurry up!
I'll be making a more detailed summery later, it's just now, I'm hungry.

Introduction

I accidentally deleted my perfect first copy of this introduction, so I'll see if I can reproduce it.
At one in the morning, I started reading a book I didn't think was going to be interesting. After the few pages, I knew this was going to be my book.
I had originally found this book in the form of an anime(Japanese Animation), but I could never find the next episode. I later learned from a friend in Spanish that it was also great Broadway musical. From book turned musical and later turned  into anime, I have a lot I could compare it to. The book I chose to read is Les Miserables by Victor Hugo (Pronounce Le Mis. I had the same problem when watching the anime).
I will be posting my AP summer homework of reading the book, chapter by chapter, on my blog. I would probably be writing them at around midnight, then posting them first thing in the morning.

Aloha!

So, I've been meaning to do one part of my AP Literature summer homework. So until I finish Les Miserables, all post from here one will be for my teacher, if she needs to read it. So, if you want to know what Les Miserables is about or if you just want to see my ideas and thoughts about it, keep checking in everyday. The chapters are really short and I'm reading it on my iPod.
Ciao till I'm done!

.............*Hides behind tree*.......I forgot about this blog.....

Yes, I did forgot to update this blog and to even check it for a while. I blame myself always being bored. Anyway, time to tell ya about my very cool weekend!
So, I had called up a few friends, from Samie's party a while back. We all wanted to head down to the Ren Faire that was happening. (For those of you who don't know, Ren Faire is short for Renaissance Faire.) I had also convinced everybody to some and dress up. I had saved up all my money so I could buy a tunic I saw on one of the merchants website. (My chair rocks back and forth....Now it's a few inches shorter. I feel so tiny!) Anyway, Everyone came and we had fun listening to a few of my songs I had put on a Ren Faire playlist on YouTube, which I am listening to now. Mostly Heather Dale and a few instrumentals.
  I wanted us to head down to the faire at around 10, but since Samie had more trouble making up than I normally do. (I am not a morning person at all! It normally takes a crowbar or my alarm clock falling to the ground to get me out of bed. That day, I had woken up at six.)
We headed down to the faire and made it around eleven- forty. The first thing we did was try and find the booth for my tunic so I wouldn't be left out. I found it and put it on right after I found it. After, we quickly hurried to find a spot during the jousting match that they had at noon. Even though it was still about 5 minutes till the match started, we had trouble finding a spot where I could easily film (Ishymaru couldn't make it, so I tried getting pictures.). It was really cool seeing the knights fight each other, especially the little retorts they threw at each other.
Afterwards, we all watched a bit of the Bawdy Juggler (Those easily offended, don't watch!) Before heading to the food area to get some ice cream. (Yes, I know ice cream is not Renaissance, deal with it. It was a very hot day!) We walked around more when Isoya and myself wanted to watch the Bawdy Juggler again, cause I knew my other friends would get a kick out of it when they watched the video. I filmed almost the whole thing and tried hard not to laugh.
We left soon after that. It was really hot and I got another small sunburn on my shoulders. Again.
So that was my fun weekend. Now, the next fun stuff I have planned is the Old Fashioned Festival this weekend and the Anime meeting tomorrow.
Oh, Update on Anime Club! The president, Akira has now resigned from her post because her schedule is too full to be in charge of Anime club. She said, she'll still come to some meetings and be in our Live-Action as a minor reoccurring character, but no longer as a president. So myself and Ryoku (Her anime name is a guys name), have been promoted. She is now the President and I'm the Vice President. We still need to see who is going to be the Secretary. Then we can start filming! I'm so excited for filming!
So that's it for now. Wow this was a long post and I got it done in one day! I'm so proud of myself! Ciao!

Aloha! I'm Back! (It's been a long time)

(I forgot to finish this post...Pretend it's Tuesday.)
Yes, I am still alive! I have not vanished of the face of the Earth! (Though it is too bloody hot in the little office space! I want A/C!!) Since I have been away from WiFi for about a week, I have a lot to type about.
We finally had some summer weather! It was cold for all of Spring, and just this week, we finally got above 80 degree temperature. Now it's just too hot!
So, I finally looked at the pictures and videos that my dad took from the As You Like It production from April. I was so embarrassed that, I'm sorry, but no pictures or videos will be posted.
Now on to the trip I took with my dad and step-mom to Sisters. Sisters is named for the three mountains really close. Taking the back roads was a lot more fun than the highway, since the long, winding roads at around 80mph is so much fun!!
There wasn't much to do in a town of about 2,000 people other than a seventeen booth fair, walking around, and finding a street musician you could talk to for hours. We talked for only about an hour since I did have to leave.
I'm going to go back to my ninja mode. I have no patience to type in ninja mode. Ciao everybody! I think I'll say Ciao for a while.......Bye!

Don't worry, this is a good post

My last post was written in a fit so now I can actually report some stuff finally.

SurvivorGrrrl finally added more posts on her blog as well that I need to start reading before I go to my dad's this weekend. I'll be leaving at eleven in the morning on Thursday and I won't post again until Tuesday or Wednesday. We are heading over to Central so my dad and step-mom said I can just see what I want to do over there for fun! Freedom!! I'm thinking more going to the downtown and the fair that was going on.

Also, I'm going to be away from my sister during her birthday, so I decided to make her a scavenger hunt for her to get her present. I'll make the first one easy then the other's really hard. It'll be fun for her.

Not much else going on since it's summer. I shall now go! And hunt for some type of food. I lost two chocolate bars and I really want them. Ja Matta!

STOP FUCKING SCREAMING!!!!!!

Every time I'm at home, my sister makes a huge bloody deal out of everything and she has to scream and yell about it. Why can't she just calmly talk about it? It even stresses me out so much that I need to scream just so she can get the bloody point!! The only time she was nice to me was when I had my three day migraine and even then it was just more rules that she makes up! She always screams when something is misplaced and then it just.....even now everyone bloody pressures me so much.
I wish I could just leave this place forever and never come back!! It's a prison of hell that makes me just want to scream until I die! Why couldn't I have been born in a normal environment? I could easily run to any city at a moments notice if I really needed to. I wonder why I don't.

I got an iPod screen protector!!

Everything looks so weird on my screen now. I mean there's no glare or mirroring. But instead it feels weird to type and stuff, and it's got that little weird texture kind of thing. I guess I'll need to deal with it now.
Small post for today, Ja Matta!

I'm really easily Bribed

My fellow blogger and good friend have made a second blog. This time, it's on fashion. If you know me, and as I am going to explain, I'm NOT fashionable. Last time I did go shopping, was a new store here where I live and I had to take SurvivalGrrrl17 with me for help.
So, since I'm getting invited to her Chocolate Party, and she asked nicely, here is her brand new blog: (let's hope I don't have to be her mannequin.) http://fashionstrudel.blogspot.com/
Now on to something else!
School is finally out and I only failed one class! It was stupid Lifetime Activities, our PE class. Don't judge, they made the two papers we did worth more than the final and all other days combined. Of course, I didn't turn in the papers. But now, I am free and I can do whatever I want!.....In the confines of stuff like "laws". Well, now I have money, so I can get a few things here and there....Like a haircut. My hair is getting to the point of too long again!
That's about all for now, so I'll see you in about 4 days!Don't forget to check SurvivalGrrrl's blogs and
 Ja Matta!!

Back Again...

So I'm right now next to my fellow blogger, SurvivorGrrrl7, as she is working on her newest blog post for Horror Movie Survival 101. The link to her blog was on my last post. Anyway, she is having some trouble finding the right horror movie. I am just fine not watching most of these...Ya I am a chicken but at least if I hide I might survive.
Nothing else to report, so Usagi shall go back to trying to help. Ja matta!

Finals Week.......*Starts getting the stress ball out*

Aloha!
Because it is finals week, I wanted to be happy and not be in any way too stressed this week!......Ha! AS IF! I'm failing AP Euro and a few other classes. It's so bloody annoying (I've started saying bloody so I wouldn't curse all the time).
Anyway, let's see if I can find something interesting in my life...
I have a friend of mine who also has a blog and I'm mentioned as a research assistant once. I think I mentioned the day my friend dragged me out to go see The Room-mate. She doesn't have a lot of posts but I owe her one for helping me out a few times. http://survivinghorror101.blogspot.com/ She loves Horror stuff and dragged me along once. Next time, I'm wearing a hoodie.
Let's see what else........Not much I can think of now. My life has been pretty normal and "blah" since the play ended and nothing else is ha-Wait!
I remembered it! One day during Health with all the Freshies, our conversation turned to the Paranormal. Normally, I hate Paranormal stuff. It scares the s*** out of me when I watch TV at two o'clock in the morning. Anyway we just kept talking and somehow we formed the Paranormal Hunters Association of our town, called P.H.A.N. for short. Don't you dare diss it, I made it up. Since I'm the oldest and...*cough cough* most mature and responsible of the group, I'm the researcher and the leader. All the best for us, a new book is coming out all about the haunted places in our town! I'll be making a FB page so I can help organize our "field trips". If anyone has any old equipment like infra-red camera, heat cameras, or voice recorder, please send me an email! We are thinking of making a YouTube series out of it. We don't have a lot to work with though. As I'm the oldest, even I don't have a driver's license, much less a car. And it's finals week so we can only start during summer, which is when we start filming for Anime Club series, Blood Jewl (It's spelt that way).
So that's what I have for now! Check out my friend's blog please! Ja Matta!
