Wow, new post! And one where I'm just a smidge mad!

Okay so I am doing homework today because of conferences. I'm working on Hamlet journal, and I was working on allusions (Ideas is literature kind of passed down like the idea of the Bible in the Lion King. Really, look at it closely.) So a lot of Emilie Autumn song's have references to Hamlet. (To those who haven't read Hamlet: You have not lived and "For shame, for shame")
I had to search up many songs anew because all the ones I listened to privatized all her videos. I listened to the song then wrote what I thought with the similarities. So I was re-searching Opheliac when my sis decides to wake up. She told me that she needed her music to relax before work. I calmly told her I needed to do my homework with my music first. She decided to have a bloody meltdown with whiny voice! She told me I promised and she needed to listen to the songs before the 12 hour shift. I said that this was for homework and I also need to find them. When she told me I could listen to her songs while doing homework, I again, calmly, said that I can't concentrate with other music while trying to write about a specific song when it is a completely different genre.
She decides to sit on the couch and cry. And it didn't even look like she was fake crying or really crying. Let's just say WORST ACTING EVER. So I finally relented because I knew she would keep whining like a freaking toddler until I played her songs. So now I'm here on blogger trying to type while horrible music choices are playing. Only two of the 17 songs so far I listen to.
Now what happened next made her whine again. My mom needed to go online. They had their own battle about the computer and I got kicked off. Now, I'm back on and working on Hamlet again. Except instead of listening to EA I decided to go with Trance- Secret Melody.
That was my day. Wasn't it amazing? Ciao till next time.

I'm tired so no complaining.

I didn't get to film much of the party and there were so many inappropriate jokess I would never have gotten away with it anyway. I have made a new video for school so if you want to check YouTube it's on there. (This was supposed to be published last week so....It's time travelling!)

Just a small Side note

I don't know if this is happening to everybody or just my "Bi-polar, ADHD, Teenager-like Computer", but when I go to the home page, it scrolls down either halfway down the page or all the way to the bottom. Please just bear through this inconvenience. I'm still having issues with the new Blogger interface, it's so evil!

My Camera Is on the Couch, Too lazy to just import a few videos.

says it all. But I have other news! 
Homecoming!!! 
Was yesterday. I didn't tell you guys last time because I still wasn't sure. So yes, I did go and it was quite...Amusing is a good word. From seeing from friends getting dressed up and paying the $8 entrance just to play Magic, to my friends all cheering at random times (My friends need no energy drinks).
Warrior Cat (Back when he was lighter)
Now for some very exciting news! My blogs shall now have mascots! Poetical Kitten and Warrior Cat (Isoya's cat as he was sitting on my lap and my fat cat.)
Poetical Kitten
These two male kittens will appear here and there when advice, sarcasm, or just some fun is needed. Poetical Kitten is more intelligent while Warrior Cat is here for quotes or a fun picture. Which brings us to his first quote: "When hungry, eat. When tired, nap in a sunbeam. When doing to the vet, pee on your owner." I forgot where I heard this quote but this is Warrior Cat to a 'T'. Except he didn't pee. He just ran around the house and clawed me.
Well that's all for now. Warrior Cat is now napping on an extra copy I had of my Psychology test. Poetical Kitten is still at my friend's house probably. So until I actually get up and put my videos from my camera to the computer, you'll still have to wait until you see little tiny me. Ciao till then!

Usagi Hikari will be making her first live appearance!!!

Yes the news is true! I will be making a video TOMORROW! This is in celebration of my friends (Day Before) Halloween Party! I'll be filming the whole shopping, decorating, and the party itself. And that means you will see every moment, every joke and you'll even hear me!
Hope no-one gets disappointed!
On a second note: I have finished a nice photo essay. It will be all about civilization, so keep you eye out for that post!
Ciao for now, I need to keep warm in this house somehow.

Ok, finally a good long post.

Since I have some time, this will be a good updater post.
School is normal and boring so no new posts on that.
Anime Club: We didn't get many new members and Ryoku is finally getting more of the script for the live-action done. We have gotten several ideas for the plot and even our previous President is making cameo appearances!
International Club: I have no clue, I was watching over the Anime Club booth during the club fair. But I hope we have some new Freshies.
Now a new club has made its' appearance!! Self Defense Club! (Those of you who know me: laugh. Those who don't: I'm super weak and probably will die the first day). This was One of my senior friends' idea because of I have no clue what, but she's making me join.
Let's see what else there is.....
I'm freezing! I was probably complaining about how it was really hot, but my right hand is ice cold. I don't know why though.
I really don't know what else there is. Other than writer's block is evil.
I hate this! Sorry to completely change around on everything, but my sis woke up. You have to love family when the first thing they say when they see you is, "Did you finish your homework?" Yes I did, thanks for ruining my whole day, b****. (I told myself I should curse less.) I was having a nice day today, then someone had to wake up. Thanks to the bloody kraken.
Now I'll head back to my eighteen page story. It'll take forever to finish FDTR. Ciao!

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!
