So I've been into adoptables lately. So very many adoptables. I've got ones named after Suikoden characters, ones named after friends, one named after my sister...I don't think this will ever be an active journal, but hey, at least I can write out my thoughts in it occasionally.

I've been told I do boring stuff when I'm bored. This is true. When I have nothing to do, I tend to make lists and notes and charts and stuff, and then sort of deteriorate into random drabbles that don't make any sense when put together. There is no end to it.

Maybe someday I'll change my journal layout to a pretty custom one or something. And I put 'under construction' on my profile, but then I forgot about it, and that reminds me of the letter I found last week that I'd written two months ago and forgotten to send and now feel sort of guilty about. Is it too late to send it now? Maybe I should give up on this whole pen pal business, I always end up cutting off communication somehow. Same goes for internet pals and real pals and whatnot. I miss you Minnesota people! Even if I never call or write or anything! And for some reason I still have a certain spider kid stuck in my head. Someday I'll try playing him in an RP somewhere...but I'd need pictures first, and I'm still not fixed on what he looks like. Ha.

I told my aunt I was sick and she said I should visit the doctor to get medication for swine flu.

...I wonder if that's a bad sign.

Why in the world am I writing a Konatsu app.

...Oh well~

I took a quiz today. Found it on somebody else's Livejournal. It's really accurate. I wonder how that works? Hmm...

( Only two questions! )

...Also I really like my latest icon. Mediocre Paint edits aren't very noticeable when you shrink a picture to icon-size~

...I wonder if it's a good idea to call and schedule an externship interview appointment thing when I have a really bad cold. Or is it the flu? Dunno.

This weekend was interesting. Or rather, it wasn't all that interesting but the lack of parents was interesting in itself?...Anyway, school starts tomorrow! And I've got a meme to write! Yup.

Comment and I'll give you 5 words I associate with you.
Then, explain them in your LJ.

Puppies, Optimist, Florian, Neopets, Openness

1. Puppies: Puppies are adorable. I love them a lot, especially since my entire family seems to have a dog fixation. Almost every last one of my aunts has (or had) a dog or three, and I love all of them. Anyway, it's fun to talk about puppies, and for some reason when I'm not sure what to talk about they tend to pup pop up into the conversation.

2. Optimist: No matter the situation, whether I actually feel that way or not, I tend to be optimistic about things. At least, when talking to people. I don't really think about it when I'm by myself, but if somebody's worried, I always feel the need to say it'll be all right, it'll all work out, stuff like that. And often it does. I find that staying cheerful, if not optimistic, is a good way to make sure things really will turn out all right in the end. Stress never helps, you know.

3. Florian: My most popular RP character! Possibly because he's the one I play most often? I love those characters who are sweet and innocent and know absolutely nothing of the world, and Florian fits that category pretty well. He's one of the reasons I mention puppies a lot, as he usually ends up getting introduced to them at some point and wanting one of his own. He's also the reason I started using lots and lots of squiggles and somewhat less than perfect grammar on occasion~ I also quite enjoy being able to question things and bring up topics older people might want to avoid. It makes the conversation more interesting; you can only talk about cookies for so long before things get boring, you know.

4. Neopets: Neopets! Sort of self-explanatory, maybe? I'm not sure. I actually haven't played Neopets in a while, but I think it's a fun site to visit when there's not much else to do. And I occasionally feel sorta guilty when I leave pets to starve, so if I visit once I might keep going for the rest of the week. Still haven't beaten Neoquest, either!...I've actually made multiple accounts before. I forgot the username once, and another time I forgot the password...either that or the account actually got deleted, I'm not sure. But my latest one had sort of a .hack theme, and I named all the pets accordingly. Also; I like how colorful the site is. All the pretty colors~

5. Openness: Um...I'm an open person! Very open. When I go somewhere new, I tend to adapt pretty quickly; I was sent to live with strangers for the summer a few years back (my grandma's sister half the time and a friend of my aunt's for the rest), and within the first couple days I already felt like I'd been living there all my life. When people tell me something new, something they believe in or something strange to me, I tend to try to understand it. Ask a few questions, that sort of thing. It's not too hard to try to think from a different viewpoint. I think my openness might not be all that good, though, since I have trouble understanding when people are biased or prejudiced or something and don't have any real reasons to give me. So I guess I'm not as open as I thought? I'm not sure.

....Hope everybody had a great weekend!

So. Today I was thinking, I have this really bad habit of going on the internet, joining a bunch of communities, making friends, chatting with people, and then disappearing into the abyss of obscurity and wallowing around down there until I've been all but forgotten before coming back up to start all over again. It doesn't help that no matter how many times I tell myself to be more active, I always forget I have a personal journal. In the light of all that, I'm gonna say that even though I haven't talked to anybody in forever, I still love you all! Dunno why I'm saying all this. It feels sorta like a goodbye message. Oh well, it's been stuck in my head all day so might as well.

...Actually, I was gonna list everybody and ask how you were all doing and say touching things and stuff like that, but I'm not sure anybody would recognize their names on the list besides Kitty and Ria and Ren-Mommy and a couple other people. As for everybody else...um. There's Anise-person, Ion-person, Kite-person, Elk-person...Aunty-person....I'd call one of you Music-person, but I don't even know if you post music anymore, it's been so long since I actually seriously checked my friendslist. So. Um. Yes. You can ignore this if you want. Haha. Uh.

I went to the Anime Convention yesterday! Yaay~ My legs were dead for the rest of the day, but that gave my mom an excuse to make us watch Sense and Sensibility, and I found out one of the guys in the movie was Professor Snape, which was pretty cool. And today I'm at my aunt's house for the Fourth of July. Happy Fourth of July, everybody! Next year I'm gonna go to the convention as Apple the magical tactician teacher student girl person! My sister was Ange from Umineko, and there were a total of four Umineko people including her at that place, so she had a lot of fun. She met one of the translators for the game, apparently! Someday I'll actually pay attention to what I'm doing instead of keeping barely active enough in RPs to be considered alive and ignoring the rest of the net for pictures and stuff.

Uh...oh yeah, King's Quest is a really fun game! I've been playing that recently. King's Quest 6! Woo crossdressing princes~ Okage's awesome too, but I've only watched my sister play it. I think I've been doing too much stuff. Too much excitement or exercise or something. It kinda hurts. But I bought doujins at a convention and I secretly took pictures of Kaito and the Cabbage Guy and I forgot to take a picture of the magical moving mountain but that's okay and yeah it was fun~

Note to self: If the number I think of is in Chinese, it's not the house.

I got the Clover omnibus manga thing! So wonderful~ What else, um. Beat Threads of Fate, have to start over on Tactics Advance, stuck on Suikoden 2 because none of the enemies will drop a Ghengis Khan recipe(what in the world is a Ghengis Khan?). Why'd the school have to cut all its summer classes? I probably already know the answer to that.

My birthday was last week. Which brings up another note to self: I should never announce my birthday to people unless I know for a fact they aren't going to throw a surprise party or something. Aah that was so embarrassing.

Why is it I always forget my own personal livejournal account when I check my RP accounts every day? Does anybody even remember me anymore? And why does the main character of Macross Frontier remind me of a cross between Kanda Yuu and Yuri Lowell?...Watchmen is a horrible comic, I need to stop reading it. And yet I have nothing better to do. I wonder if the movie's better.

...Ice cream~

We got a PS3! My sister's playing Suikoden V and eventually I'll get to play Jak and Daxter and read all the Precursor text and run around and beat stuff up and I have no idea what I'm talking about anymore~

Also, I've been overloading myself in RP again. I've got...three active characters now? Not counting the multitude of Dressing Room kids. Gotta work on Luc though, I've been...yeah. I hope I don't end up having to drop him.

Y'know, I've been wanting to say this for a while now, but every day on my way to school I pass by a guy on a unicycle, who I'm assuming is also on his way to school judging by the backpack.

...Yup.

So I was going to say something today, and yesterday, and the day before that, but I can't remember any of it now that I'm here. Um...oh, I found out my puppy's ten weeks old as of her last checkup! And having a class in...psychology of women is actually pretty fun, especially now that I've told them I'm going to study cartoons for my project. Now if only I knew which cartoons to choose from...Hamtaro, if I can find it. I miss that show.

Meanwhile, in the world of RP! I wasted the past few days looking for communities that accepted original characters who didn't have live-action icons, though I spent most of that time staring at this one I forgot the name of that was really detailed and kinda cool...then I started thinking I wanted to try playing a kitty, but. Yes. Anyway.

...Poly!Florian had a really weird dream! It kinda reminds me of back when he was Eway!Florian, and he had a post that said nothing but I HAD A DREAM! Like that. Oh yeah, and I spoke to a friend today that I haven't talked to in a really long time cos we made friends last semester and we don't share classes this semester and stuff. And I heard my aunt got another dog and it's huge! My sister wants a dog so big she can ride it, but that's sorta impossible. Um. Also, I really want pizza right now.

And now! I shall try playing Pangya. ♥

In no particular order.

1. Either I am secretly full of road rage, or I've played too much Jak X.
2. I miss the PS2.
3. I wish I knew how old my puppy was.
4. For some reason I remembered the time I saw a pretty yellow flower growing out of a heap of trash.
5. I'm uncertain as to my ability to RP as Wander, but I'm gaining confidence in Ginji.
6. My favorite characters from Tales of the Abyss are Florian, Ginji and Reiner.
7. The computer screen chose a horrible time to die.
8. Why am I numbering my thoughts?
9. ...Facebook's kinda boring, but that mafia game thing is alright.

And now for a quote from the book I'm currently reading: "I sank into a c. and passed an agitated h. over the b."

The How's My Driving? Meme

You can ignore that. Anyway! I've been really busy this past week, I'm technically supposed to have gone to bed an hour ago, and I've got to do lots of performing or something at church this Sunday. But I just did the organ for them tonight, I wanna plaaaayy...

Right. So. For some reason I've gone back to my old training regimen in my Pokemon Crystal game, and while I'd previously gotten to the final boss in my cousin's Prinny game it seems the PSP died and I have to play that level over again. It took hours last time, too. I got pretty far in Tales of Vesperia though! Or at least I'm farther than I was before and nowhere near catching up to my sister. But I've got a puppy and she's adorable and I think she's finally starting to get housebroken! Cleaning up her messes is...I can't actually say it's tiring or annoying, nothing really bothers me these days, but it'll be nice for her to finally be well-behaved enough for us to let her run free. Or something.

...I was actually planning on saying something else earlier, but I can't remember anymore, so. Hope everybody's doing well!

I got a puppy! It's the most adorable thing in the world and it keeps waking me up in the middle of the night because it misses its sisters. I think I've gotten four hours of sleep today. Approximately. Probably less. It's five o'clock now! Cool.

Meant to say this last week, but I kept forgetting...As of last Wednesday, and continuing until further notice, Wednesdays suck. Anyway, I redownloaded LJ Login, which is the only reason I was able to stay active with so many journals last year, so I'll definitely be back up to date from now on! The thing never fails to remind me what I'm neglecting. I'm down to only one RP (possibly two if Cubia gets accepted) at the moment, but still. Personal journals are important too! Even if I don't use them very often.

...My sister broke the PS2 a while back. Hopefully my mom will let us get a new one (though my sister's hoping for a PS3), and I'll finally be able to finish GU and Suiko2 and...yeah, I think that's all I was working on before it broke. Though what I really want right now is a working copy of Pokemon Silver and a trading cable. That'll probably never happen though, since GBC games aren't even sold in the nearby stores anymore...maybe I'll try starting a new game on my brother's Ruby in the meantime.

What else, uh...can't think of anything else. Besides my sudden reobsession with Pokemon, Digimon and the .hack// series. Yes. Maybe I should do a meme! Those're always fun.

Happy Valentine's Day~♥

....I have nothing else to say today. XD; *scurries off*

So. Due to my horrible fail at keeping up-to-date on this journal, I have resolved to post once a month at least! And now that I've said that, I'll just go back to my usual random blabber.

I've spent the past...month(s)? playing Suikoden 2. Started over multiple times since that capslock post a couple months back, but this time I've almost beat the game! Got all 108 stars (Darn you Gordon! D:), only have one Clive event left to see, taking notes on Luc's preferences in the cooking contest just because I can, etc. Also replaying Golden Sun and Suikoden 1 on the side, while rereading the Discworld series, despite my mom's urges to try...what was it? War and Peace? I think that was it. And, um. Oh yeah, I've almost finished watching Soldier Blue Toward the Terra! Only a few episodes left, I think. And I saw one episode of Minami-ke for kinda stupid reasons. It's pretty good though! What else...got into the Hetalia series, got my sister into it, got dragged into watching a billion different parodies and videos and stuff of it because of her...the usual, pretty much.

...I feel too lazy to do anything today. I shall blame the week-long rain. ilu rain D:

A little late, but yaay my laptop's back! All the programs got deleted, but my picture collection's safe, and that's all that matters~ Plus I still got Lamento and Bluebird's Illusion and all my emulator savefiles, so it's okay. I was going to upload a Pride icon to use, but I don't think it matches my theme very well, so. At least I've managed to convince myself not to join any more RPs. It was pretty hard these past few days, what with all the new material I keep getting into. Made another RP account anyway, though. They're fun to talk to people with, even if they're not actually being used for anything. Haha.

In other news, school starts in a week and I'm apparently going to be an optician, if not an optometrist. Hooray!
