Surviving Bombs and Anniversaries  
Up until last Friday I've been busy. It was fun, in a way, I've had worse homework to focus on, those I don't know shit what to do a day before the delivering date, this time it wasn't the case. Still, I almost didn't live to tell the tale. Hell, I even had a bomb threat by the end of the week!

Yes, I'm doing a very bad joke about something that happens seriously in other countries, but really, I can't help it! When I called my mom to tell her, because, shit, we had a freaking bomb threat in my school and the TV got to us before the bomb squad! The first thing she said to me was "who had a test coming?". NOBODY took it seriously, not even the cops. I kinda wish it had happen on monday because I had a test, not that I didn't want to do the test (I did fine, btw), but it woulda been kinda cool to have cops showing up in the middle of it telling us to please get out and have my teacher complain that until the people taking care of finding the bomb were there, better to keep doing the test, and throw the cops out. Seriously, with that teacher, that's what would have happened!

But it was Thursday and classes started late and we saw the cops coming in. We had presentations to do so we ignored them and went to class, but those who didn't do the presentation stayed out and came only after they found out the true: There was a call with a bomb threat. My reaction: Eyes rolling. We started asking those who didn't do the presentation who had called, because if that wasn't the reason, someone in Design had a project to deliver or maybe one of the Architecture students had an exam coming up. More than that, it just isn't possible, not even being cunning enough to have a building to themselves and take upcoming tests or a monitor from the computer room or take money from somewhere... and no, a real bomb wasn't really in any form a possibility.

It's kinda nice to find out your country, or city, or simply your school, in this case, is safe enough to not take a bomb threat not even remotely seriously. I kept thinking, twenty years ago it wasn't as safe, not at all, but now it is. And now I think there's a facebook group called "I survive the school's bomb". And every now and then, that event is gonna be used as a celebratory excuse to drink (a lot!).

After that, things calmed down. I had a birthday party on Saturday, that lasted all the way through Sunday and I didn't went to sleep until seven in the morning (and I only did for two hours before going home), and it wasn't until that time I came to realize it was the anniversary of Claudia's death. A grim thought, maybe, but I mostly forget the date until it is most of the time, is not like her birthday when I think about the years she doesn't have, I just block this date away. I remembered because my friend, the birthday girl, was a little too drunk and talking to me about her dad, that's been dead for two years now, and she still has issues with him after he's gone because she just put too much pressure on herself.

I seem to be very good at listening, as a friend. We talked until the sun was out again, and I talked with her boyfriend, also my friend, about some of *his* issues, and because I didn't sleep properly that night, it wasn't until Monday morning I got my hangover, gah. Pretty fitting, all in all, with both my friend's endless party and Claudia's anniversary, cus if I did know something about her was that she was of the philosophy of getting wasted to solve everything.

In cheerier subjects, I got a package today! Took a picture of the content and all (with my cell, that's why is not that good!).



Lupe, I love you!! Thank you for this, is lovely! I have it now on my dest next to the pc. It will keep me company!

Fic: Tokyo Tower  
Title: Tokyo Tower
Fandom: JE, NEWS
Characters: Ryo, Massu (the rest of NEWS shows up)
Summary: Ryo wonders about people. Lately, he's been wondering about Massu, and that bugs him to no end.
Notes: So sometimes I just think too much. I love both Massu and Ryo, but I think they are the two that less interact with each other in NEWS, probably because they don't have enough common ground? Anyway, I read in Koyama's nikki once that Massu didn't know the name of Tokyo Tower and had never been there. I don't know If that has changed since, but I decided to use it here ^^


I don't get you )

Lately...  
OK, so I've not write regularly here for a while. I could say I've been busy, and it would be true, but I've also made time to watch a bunch of stuff, so the truth is I've only been antisocial.

The bigger part of last week I acted like a good student and did all my homework during the week vacation that never felt like one, and I was a dutiful family member taking care of things while my parents were away looking at flowers in the desert. I was grumpy as hell. I think I snapped at my grandma everyday at least once, and my brothers too, even though no one took notice of my mood. That should tell you how we usually get along!

I did leave the house for other reason beside grocery shopping, and that was to get together with Berni and Cesar and do some window shopping downtown. Fun, really, really fun.

I also ended up watching the finale of ReGenesis, that I didn't know it was the finale until I watched it, cus, really, you don't get more final than that (except for that time when everything went BOOM). It was... interesting. There's a lot of reasons why I loved this show, starting for the fact it was Canadian-based and had a multi-racial cast. But mostly, because it was about science like science should be, exciting and twisted and opening new doors to understand the world better. I was never good at science in school, I still suck at it, but I find it fascinating. I'm pretty sure this show went very much to the science fiction side of things, but it used all those myths and desires the scientific community would love to prove real and possible. It helped a lot that the characters were interesting and so incredible human even though they were super smart and you didn't know what were they talking about half the time. True, it was a procedural show when you couldn't phantom a guest as how things came to be and how to end it, but it was so appealing and I loved that it was never one plague or virus at a time, but several showing up all over the place between Mexico, the US and Canada. Great, great tv show. I'm gonna miss it.

I could talk about the new season, but so far the only decent season premiere was NCIS, I think. House was OK, but it's boring me fast, and Heroes... Uhm, I don't know yet. Of the new shows, I may watch Fringe, if only because Joshua Jackson is in it and I had a crush on him since the first Ducks movie.

Wait, I almost forgot! SPN!! Of course that was a good one! How is it I've come to love this show so much? I guess is for the pretty and the twisted and the fact that the cast and the crew, and mostly, the writers, know how pretty the two leads are and abuse it every single time. And Jared and Jensen are living together now, which I know is driving fans crazy with joy!

I have more homework to do, can you see I'm stalling? Gah, I want to fangirl about NEWS properly and their winter tour. And complain that Arashi is doing the theme song for Ryo and Nino's new drama, it's seriously annoying me, I wanted Kanjani8 doing it, or someone else altogether! I love Nino and Arashi, but I find it a little unfair. Also, is having both leads on this drama touring while they film the drama a good idea? Please, Ryo-chan, after this, take a BREAK! With Pi! To celebrate his graduation! Take Jin with you and make fans write lots and lots of porn cus seriously, it's lacking lately, almost nobody has been writing!

And yes, I plan on working on the stuff I promised to work on this weekend. I need to write that fic for [info]je_holiday soon!

Anything else? I'm in love with Mizukawa Asami. She just keep showing up everywhere! I gave up! Now I love her even more than Inoue Mao. She's just that cool and pretty and awesome.

Her birthday  
September is a bad month for me. I don't like it. It's kind of sad to have friends with birthdays during this month. Not because of them, of course not! I celebrate them all I can on their respective dates. Is just that other dates during the month always carry more weight, even after so long.

It's been five years today since Claudia had her last birthday.

The first year I went to the cemetery. I haven't gone since cus, in all honesty, it makes little sense to me to do so. I got drunk two years ago, that felt nice, the numbness, but I don't like to drink alone, so I'm not doing that today.

Two days ago I watched Kisarazu Cat's Eye: World Series. Awesome movie, all on its own, until I realize half way in that I'm watching a movie about a guy that die several years ago and all his friends regret not giving him a proper goodbye, and that they need to move on. Good movie, bad taming to watch it, really.

I gave my goodbyes to Claudia that time in the cemetery. And I move on the moment I left her funeral, like it or not. Doesn't mean I forget, though. And I still get all depressed and contemplative on her birthday, today, so just I don't do the same on the anniversary of her death, two weeks from now.

I really, really want September to be over.

I'm gonna go distract myself with something fluffy and nice, or homework, probably.

Kimi no haPPy birthday~~  
Ok, NEWS' Happy Birthday PV?

LAME.

But, oh, so sweet!

There's something about the lighting in this one I didn't like, is very bad, specially comparing it to Summer Time. It also feels shorter and rushed. I mean, there's like three times Yamapi is in front of Tegoshi and some out of frame stuff that don't work.

BUT. SWEET.

As usual, the people in charge of the PV decided to put NEWS together in a room with random objects and waited for the magic to happen. It's usually better without the objects, though, cus then they touch each other a lot more cus their hands are free!

And I would LOVE to have a NEWS monopoly game or whatever that boardgame was about. It has Nyanta in it! Cus the cat was totally Nyanta, it show up just when Koyama and Shige sang together!

Another thing, what was up with the RyoTego here?? I mean, I'm not a fan, but they kept looking *meaningfully* at each other!

I kinda liked how they bow in the chorus. It fits, I think. Also, the heart is adorable!!

Result? Not the best PV (that's still Weeeek), far from it, but not the worse either (Umm, I think the jury is still out on that one: Kibou Yell or Akaku Moyuru Taiyou? The flowered wallpaper outfit or the gay love boat?)

I'm gonna go watch it again.

EDIT: Gods, I think NEWS stole Arashi's rainbow. Wonder if they actually miss it?

NEWS Con DVD  
Last week I finally got my copy of the Pacific Con DVD. I live pretty much by the end of the world, so of course it was gonna take time for the thing to get to me. So, I went to Valparaiso to visit Daniela so we could watch it together. Always better to do this kinda stuff with friends, right? That's the reason why neither of us watched the concert before even though it was so easy to download!

Sadly, her computer didn't read the discs for some reason, so we ended up watching the downloaded version anyway XD

In any case, it was pretty awesome. Mostly because Daniela's family doesn't bug her about the level of noise so we heard the concert loud and clear and we sang everything there was to sing even though neither of us can really sing that well at all, haha.

Of course, I feel like talking about it, because there's a lot to talk about. It was a fun concert, but I can't help but think it coulda been better, mostly because... what the hell was up with the music selection??

And now I realize I know incredible well NEWS' complete repertory! )

A book in a concert  
So I am watching Eito's documentary for their tour of last year. It was released by BNS a few weeks ago, I think. I'm watching it, right? And after seeing Ryo avoid the camera as always, Tacchon being completely adorable and Maru making Yoko sweat in the dressing room, Hina shows what he has in his backpack, and one of the items in there is the book he's reading at the time, it has an orange with an apple cover in it and somehow, it looks oddly familiar to me... Of course, because it was the same book I was reading a year ago when this documentary was filmed! Awesome!

The book, btw, it's called Freakonomics. A very fun book if you like economics but think it's a hard subject to understand. I recommend it whole-heartly!

And that reminds me I haven't yet read The Undercover Economist, that goes on the same path than the other book. I do like economics a lot, I wish I was better at it!

KINKY  
I've been distracting myself lately (the last two days or so) being very, very dirty and reading seriously kinky smut. I myself didn't even know I liked to read that kind of stuff until I got my hands on it. I specially enjoyed a horrible one where Jin and Ryo are farmers and Pi is a cow. I am SO not kidding with this. I would give the link, but you have to join the community to read it, so if you want it, ask me. Like I said, I actually liked it, it was very well developed, but it was kinky as hell, and full on non-con.

How come I've never before enjoy reading this stuff, but now I do? Because is based on real people? I guess it could be, as twisted as that is. I have always had a hard time being able to read kinky stuff with anime, it doesn't appeal to me. Maybe on Weiss, but that's because, once again, the story is made for that, as it is for the angsty-angst, and the character deaths, and everyone being psychos. There are other animes and mangas out there that are even more fucked up, but I can't get myself to like them like I like Weiss, because Weiss manages a balance between the freaky-ness, and the right on dorky-ness. Weiss is silly in a lot of ways, just like it is awful and dark in others. The other stories are just plain horrible and depressing.

So I had no interested in kinky, fucked up fics in any other of my fandoms. Save the occasional fic here and there that is well written enough to survive my screen test to read, but I don't remember any right of the bat, so they really weren't that great. But then... then I got interested in JE. And I enjoy crack, and general angst, and romance (if it is good enough) and lots of member ai fics. I even get action fics with the AUs. Then, I start to read porn just for the sake of reading porn. And I like it. A lot. But that's OK, these are real people, so is easier to picture them having sex and it isn't just "characters", they aren't drawings.

But the kinky, seriously disturbing, not nice at all half the time non-con sex with an excuse? I've come to like that? Gah, there's something wrong with me. I can understand the reasons for writing them, though. It's good for experimental purposes when writing, and it helps as stress relief. Better write it than do it, right? I think I wrote two stories in the Digimon fandom with this plot. They weren't really long and they were, in all truth, experimentations with my writing. I was never really explicit, in any case. Both stories ended up in murder, too. But the only real story OF murder I wrote didn't really have a murder at all, because the guy dead was just an invention of one of the character's mind. Or something like that. It was a very complicated story.

I guess I have to come to terms with this. Will I ever *write* one of those stories again in this new fandom I'm in now? I don't know. I don't think I have the time to write something twisted like that, even if some ideas come to mind easily. I think of the time because it would take twice as long to write it and then make sure it actually makes sense. Awful and dark as those stories are, they only work if the writer is skilled enough to do them. If not, is a bunch of nonsense that doesn't survive anyone's screening tests.

Passing by  
I actually worked on a power point presentation I have to do on Thursday before writing in here. How responsible am I, huh? Well, I still have to gather information on radiation and dendrochronology for tomorrow, but really, I'm working on it!

Except for the part when my mom felt like shit and we had to take her to the hospital, this was a pretty decent, busy week.

My mom's doing fine, by the way. Thanks for caring. She rested a lot, changed her meds and she even went with the rest of the family to the movies yesterday.

My dad asked me to work on a translation for him. I asked Alejandra for help (since she's a translator and all), but it looks I got lucky and the subject was easy (about cloud seeding, fun!), so the text is finished and I'm gonna make a lot of money out of it. Translators earn a LOT of money for this kind of stuff, since they charge for word. I was actually thinking of charging my dad less, but he talked me out of it. It wasn't exactly his money, and it was professional work, so I deserve it. Fine by me.

It made me think that I should have charged more for those phrases I translated to English and Japanese for a calendar at the end of last year. I actually thought I was doing my dad's friend a favor, not really working for him.

Hell, I'm happy if this keeps up. I've been thinking of studying for the TOEFL now that I don't have English in school (yes! I got out of it, this level and the next!). It could help me get a good job this summer.

I'm really sorry I wasn't able to wish [info]flipbookfrog a happy birthday on the day itself, I wasn't around. HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!! Happy sixteen years and four days! I'm sure you had a great time on your day (and hopefully on the days that came after that!). I owe you a fic! Hopefully when I'm not so busy I will give it to you ^^ any preferences?

Sleepy  
So it's 3.30 in the morning here and I'm awake.

Why? I just came back from a trip with my mom to the hospital. She was feeling like crap and her blood pressure was sky high. They took tests and gave her something for now and tomorrow (today) she'll have to go to her personal doctor to check on her meds and stuff.

It wasn't really scary, but still...

And I have classes tomorrow (today) at 8.30. Fun.

My weeeek  
So, my life? Let's review the highlights of the week.

On Monday I had geology. It's gonna be hard, again (this is level III). The good thing is that I can pass this class with only attendance and going to all the field trips. Everything else I do for it is a plus!

I also had English. See, I know my English is pretty good. Not perfect, of course, I still have a lot to learn, but it's good enough for me to being able to translate freaking geography texts to my classmates for the past two years before having this class! So, I don't need it. Seriously. I didn't know how to tell my teacher that, though. He was blunt enough to say that, because I took the test to not do the class two years ago, my English is probably not good enough now and I should have done the class before (this is level III, too). I kept telling him I wanted to do the test again to not do his class, but he said it was out of his hands.

I like English, is my favorite language to learn because, as much as I love Japanese, is freaking hard to learn. English is not. For me, in any case. I could move right now to an English-speaking country and survive without any trouble. I did that last summer! Most of the books I read are in English, I have a journal where I always write in English! I don't need a class were the level is way too basic for me to actually learn something, specially if my English is actually at the same level than the teacher! Not that I will ever say that to him, but if I have to do this class... I mean, the British guy that teaches the lower levels knows me and likes me because I can speak with him in English when nobody else does. He told I shouldn't do this class. Sadly, he doesn't teach it.

Moving on...

On Tuesday I had rural geography. I won't like this class. I know that because I don't like the teacher (I had classes with her before) and because I don't like the subject. I've never been a fan of the countryside. I don't hate it, but I'm a city girl, I get bored easily with the quiet and the living far away of everything and everyone. I am not, in any case, an idiot when it comes to it, though. I lived in the countryside for two years when I was growing up. That's why I know I don't like it. I won't react like a city kid that has never been in the countryside like the teacher expect us all to react. I hate it when teachers do that.

I started my last semester of GIS on Wednesday. I have a new teacher for that class, someone with a plan. Someone that wants us to do stuff with all the GIS (geographic information systems) programs we can get our hands on. I kinda like him. Still, it worries me that the last three semesters with this class we have barely learned the stuff we need to know now for what the teacher wants us to do. He's gonna get frustrated. And so will we. Hopefully, though, we will manage to make something useful out of some middle ground. Hopefully.

Berni came to my house that afternoon. We talked a little about the worrying future of our adulthood (I know, "fun"). I also talked to her about NEWS and JE. She's not gonna loved them like Nataly and Lupe do after I attacked with info and clips and stuff about them, but she's gonna give them a chance, that's good enough for me.

Speaking of that, I now have the complete dvd that came out that day subbed thanks to [info]newshfan, but I'm not gonna watch anything until I get my own copy, that should get here next week. And then I'm gonna wait until I can go to Valparaiso and watch it with Daniela. It's fun to just watch it, but it's a lot more fun to watch it with friends!

On Thursday I didn't have classes. I'm suppose to have soil geography? ground geography? I don't know how to translate the name of that class. Is about the ground. The teacher made a mistake about the hour of the class and got pissed because we didn't show up, but of course we didn't show up because that wasn't the hour we got for the class! Not our fault! So I got out of bed that day for nothing. Sigh.

This week I finished cleaning my room. It looks pretty nice now. I don't think it's gonna last long, so I will take pictures, but today the weather is depressing and it looks darker than it really is.

I found out a few hours ago that we at least got one olympic medal this year at the olympic games. Of course, in tennis. We did extremely good in Athens on that. We won gold, bronze and gold again in the pairs competition. It was pretty awesome, even if I say so myself. This time around we kinda screw everything up, but at least González is up to gold or silver in two days! Yay!

I have more ideas to write. Hopefully I'll do that this weekend, before things get tough in school.

Something else? No, I don't think so.

That VOICE!  
So, back in the day? I watched a lot of anime. It's been a while since then. Last year I probably watched two, a series about baseball and a movie about time travel. Loved them both. Still, I just don't watch anime the same way anymore. Is too tiresome.

Still, because Liz and Lupe talked really well of this one, and Berni made me a copy with all the episodes, as an "end of vacation" goodbye list, I decided to watch Lovely Complex. It's been nice so far, cute, and I certainly can't show it to my mom cus she's gonna laugh for all the wrong reasons (my mom is around 15 centimeters taller than my dad).

I love Seiko-chan and it's kind of amazing finding the opposite case to Nao in Kinpachi-sensei in so little time (I've just finish watching that drama two days ago). Here is a girl trapped in a boy's body while Nao is the other way around, and Seiko-chan's way more comfortable with it than Nao is, though by the end of the drama, with the support of his classmates (and then in season 7, when he finally starts treatment) he does get more comfortable with his own skin.

In any case, that's not why I came here to write. I came here to vent. Because Haruka is driving me crazy!! Is not the character's fault, is his voice!!!

See, back in the day when I watched lots of anime? I was VERY good with the seiyuus. The voices of the characters. I had a thing for Seki Tomokazu, a tendency to fall in love with ALL his characters. Shindou Shuuichi, Hidaka Ken, Souma Kyou... in some cases I even liked the characters in manga before any anime version, and Seki still managed to show up there and make me love him even more.

Now, Seki doesn't give Haruka his voice. I know that. The problem is I can recognize that freaking voice but I can't remember the name, and I WANT to go look for the name, but at the same time, I want to remember by myself. This voice can't win over me!

I'm frustrated, that's why I'm here to vent.

And, you know, to not think that tomorrow I have classes again.

"I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by."  
Now I'm three days away of going back to classes. And I've been true to my word. I spend less time around here during vacation time that when I'm busy with school.

In any case, on monday I went to see the Batman movie with Nataly. It was pretty cool. I'm gonna miss Heath Ledger. I managed to enjoy the movie even with a HUGE headache bothering me. I've been having some of those in the past few months, and that bugs me, but is never bad enough to cause problems.

I went to cut my hair after that. I don't know if I like the end result yet, but still, I needed the change. I get bored easily with my hair, and I won't dye it until summer, so the cut was a good idea.

on tuesday I went to visit Misa and her baby. She seems to be a lucky mom, cus her kid is usually quiet and sleeps most of the night. Isn't that awesome for a one month old? She showed me a video of her wedding, and really, I don't like traditional catholic weddings cus I'm not a believer, but she did look beautiful with the white dress and stuff. I'm kind of glad I was in the States back then, though, cus going to that wedding meant wearing a formal dress and hills. No thank you.

Wednesday was Berni's day. I went to her place and we drank too much coffee and she gave me anime to watch. I think I'll try one tomorrow, as part of my "stuff to do on vacation" list. I'm glad she called me and we got together. I'm awful at keeping in touch sometimes, but is so easy to spend the time with her, and with Eduardo, whom I expect to see soon because I've still his b-day present around here somewhere.

Today I went downtown to pay my mom's bills and buy my grandma's really expensive pills. And then I got my room half-clean. I'm still working on it. I've also started writing again, thankfully. I haven't finish my book, though, and I want to do that by tomorrow.

I also want to go have lunch with my dad. Maybe visit Alejandra. Manage to get my mom out of the house when her work is finished would be awesome!

And then classes again. Sigh. Well, until september anyway.

Keeping busy  
Three days into my week vacation and I've already accomplished several things I had wanted to do for a while now.

We went out to eat as a family to a Swedish restaurant because my mom wanted to try fondue. Then everything else in the menu reminded her of something her mom used to cook when she was little and everything she eat at home was in German. I actually asked for something I didn't know what it was and tried some of the stuff that were around in the table. Yummy.

Before that I went with my dad and one of my brothers to the stadium to watch a soccer game. It's been years since I had gone, so I decided to go with them after I actually convinced them to go. Our team won, so we left the place really happy and nobody destroyed anything (that I know of). We had no mayor issues with the police except for the fact they kept not paying attention to me when we went in and I keep thinking it would be really easy for me to kill someone inside because they would never, ever, consider me a suspect.

I'm also half way through my first vacation book. I'm reading Last Chance to See by Douglas Adams. I'm guessing I'll be giving this book to my mom after I finish it, cus it's just her style to want to go visit lost islands with endangered species and take pictures of them. Just the kind of thing I will never do because as much as I love the stuff I watch in the Discovery Channel, I'm much of a paranoiac to go to a place where the list of ways I can die doubles just by trying to get there.

Alejandra and her boyfriend came by just a little while ago to pick up my mom's laptop, cus I asked him to fix it so it'll have all the programs my mom wants in it. Yes, I am that good of a daughter. And I shouldn't be, cus I've just found out my mom watched my Saint Patrick's Day's pictures that I stupidly left in the laptop for her to find. Fuck it. I didn't want my mom seeing me in that state. I know there's a video in there when I'm trying to bust a friend's confidence by telling her her boobs are great and then the two of us (Milagros and I), plus Jessica, danced too close to each other for the camera and it was more ridiculous than sexy and I was (kind of) drunk. Argh.

Tomorrow I'm going to the movies with Nataly and then I'm cutting my hair. I've had enough of it already. On tuesday I'm visiting Misa and her baby and sometime on friday I have to check on Alejandra to let her complain about work because she wasn't able to do much of it tonight.

I have to call Berni and Vesna and Josemar one of this days. To have coffee at least. I miss them, and I know it will be Cesar's birthday soon, and I want to see him, so hopefully everything between him and Vesna is going fine.

Katia's birthday is the week after this one, and I have to send her at least a postcard. I haven't talk to her since last year, and she hasn't post anything in her LJ. I know she was planning on traveling outside of Mexico for some time, but she would have say something, right? I'm worried. I could call her home, but I'm always an idiot on the phone. I know I should try writing her an e-mail, and I will. When did I became such a lousy mail-writer? That's how we first communicated, before blogs and LJs. Then things became easier and I became lazy.

I have manage to make a decent order of my PC, though. I have all my music in one place again, which is a lot to say, considering it's over 30 GB of files and mp3s. I'm also coping every drama and tv show I have in dvds and in order. Which means I also started downloading the stuff I was missing to have complete sets. Buffy, Farscape and the season I didn't have from Scrubs are now downloading.

Considering I haven't have a real vacation since the last winter vacation last year, cus the vacation in september it was kinda messy and I didn't have any summer vacation, I'm doing pretty good organizing my time!

Feet Pain  
I have my grade. I passed without problem. I won't have to worry about an exam. Yay!

BUT, the moment I came back home, because it is my mom's b-day, there was a bunch of food waiting for me. I lost count of the amount of empanadas I ate today.

So, my stomach hurts. And because I've been so worried lately my head kinda hurts and my body is dead tired.

And I decided to watch V6's last appearance in Hey!x3 (that you can download here)

Fuck. I almost fell out of my chair. Gods, Macchan in pain was hilarious enough, but Okada?? For a moment there I really thought he wasn't gonna feel anything (he IS really stoic!), but I couldn't help but laugh hard and loud seeing him in immediate pain XD

Damn Japanese people, their tv shows are full of crazy stunts that shouldn't amuse me so much!

Great for my mood, though.

Killing time  
I've been in an Arashi kinda mood lately so I watched MatsuJun's SCP interview.

So Arashi isn't all about rainbows and member ai as one may think. Good. it would be sickening otherwise. They get along just fine and they like each other, but that doesn't mean MatsuJun doesn't get fed up with Nino's pranks and his passive aggressive behavior. And both him and Sho have strong personalities, so I'm sure their discussions can turn really interesting. A little freaky that Ohno does live up to his reputation of odd old man, though.

And I got confirmation of the weird relationship Jun has with Ryo and Jin. Drinking buddies. Ryo calling him Jun-san sounded a little off, though. Jun isn't as much of a senpai for him to call him that. I woulda loved to watch a message from Jin to Jun too, though. Just to see if he acts like a good little kouhai too. Both Ryo and Jin can be so camera shy is cute. But those two drunk are probably a pain in the ass, why does Jun stand them?

It's seems there's no SCP yet for Sho and Nino, that are my favorites. Not fair. I don't think Nino is a great conversationalist, but Sho is. He probably has a lot of interesting things to say.

I got my hands into a lot of Arashi clips. Until I find out my grade, I'm watching them. I won't be on vacation until I get that grade, so I haven't call anyone to go out and enjoy the free time. I'm not going to until that grade shows up, so I'm stuck with Arashi for a while.

I'm not writing either. It's like I can't concentrate until I get out of the hole and finish the freaking semester.

I did watch Densha Otoko the movie (cute and hey, Eita is in it!) and the Taiwanese drama Rolling Love (what? I like Jiro). I'm probably watching one of the Arashi movies next.

This is a little depressing. I'm not even reading fics. Or books, for that matter.

I'm not officially on vacation yet. I still need to know my grade in the last Geobiography test to know if I need to give an exam to past the class or not. So far I haven't done so well. I just found out the test from last friday where I thought I did good, I didn't, and I'm kind of piss about it, because it's not the same to do bad when you don't know shit and do bad when you think you did good and didn't. I had good grades in that class and now my final grade dropped and I don't really know why. Not fair. I HAVE to do better next semester. I don't care much for classes were the teachers are crappy, but I liked Geoeconomy and I liked the teacher, just like I like Territorial Organization and its teacher, and I did crappy in his test too, though that's for a valid reason (I was feeling like shit). I don't care about Geobiography or the teacher, though, but I don't want to give an exam and suffer through that.

What did made me feel better after the last long, long week, was spending the weekend with Daniela. We went to see the X Files movie (She liked it, I didn't, but it was still fun), and watched JE concerts and Shokura episodes and a musical with D-boys in it until six in the morning. It was really nice to ramble with her about nothing important and enjoy the winter vacation even though I'm still not free from school.

Now I have the week ahead of me, hopefully I'll know my grade soon and get out of that mess to be able to enjoy the nothing to do days and watch dramas and such. And I have to buy my mom a present for her up coming birthday. That's about it. Writing? Hopefully.

Oh, Lupe had this and I asked for it so I guess I should put it here too. Meme where, if you comment, I will:

a) tell you why I friend-ed you,
b) associate you with something - fandom, a song, a color, a photo, etc.,
c) tell you something I like about you,
d) tell you a memory I have of you,
e) ask something I've always wanted to know about you,
f) tell you my favorite user pic of yours,
g) and in return, you must post this in your journal.
