While I appreciate that mom was able to come give me a ride home from the movie, I wasn't exactly expecting it ~right away omg~. :( Kinda lame to be phoning home to tell her we're going for coffee and to step outside only to see her car pulled right up already. *sigh*

Sorry I had to leave early guys. ;_; We were halfway home when she was like "oh, you were gonna go somewhere? I can go back!" but I didn't wanna make her come out again. We pretty much just walked in the door and she's already getting ready for bed, after all. 8|;;

Harry Potter movies are muuuuch more fun to watch with friends than family though. XD;

Today was... such a long day. @_@;

I was back at work after my trip & being sick so there was a lot of catching up to do. Bland, boring, repetitive work aaalll day. Luckily I am (mostly) better so aside from being really overtired, I didn't feel too bad. The good part about all this is that after today I only have one more day of work before the weekend! Whoo!

Anyway, after work, mom took my brother and I to see HP6 because I missed out on going with friends (didn't even notice the email + texts until like... yesterday afternoon but I couldn't have gone anyway--past my bedtime lmao. Sorry guys! ;___;). It was good! Mind you, I haven't read the 6th book in years and have only read it twice but... I guess that means I wasn't nitpicking all the way through. XD I thought the movie was well done and it only lagged in a few parts. I was worried about getting bored since it's like 2.5 hours but I didn't have that problem. Snape's hair was too fluffy though. It's supposed to be greasy! >:O Also Slughorn had the BEST "D:" and "D8" faces. My brother and I were just dying laughing at them. And a bunch of other things. (ALSO TOAST.)

Also I learnt today that Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines (the PSP game) is going to have its own PSP bundle. :( Gaaah $200! I..... really want it. D: I'm not sure what I'm gonna do. My brother said he'd buy my PSP off me if I decide to go for it, so that'd be at least $50 toward it... but ugh, it comes out like Nov 10 so if I drop $200 on that and then ANOTHER $100 on the Assassin's Creed 2 special edition the next week... D: ffff. I'll figure out something. I'm hoping the bundle just includes a plain white PSP so I don't feel guilty at all about passing it up. XD; But if it's branded then... baaw. Gotta reaaaally watch my spending. Luckily the only things I plan on buying for the rest of the year are... Professor Layton 2, KH 358/2 Days in English, and then the Assassin's Creed games. Dissidia can wait and Bioshock 2 was delayed WHOOOO. \o/

And finally I got a letter today from my gyn's office saying she's moving to Montreal at the end of August. ;_____; Just... just... ;_______; She's the only one who's actually *done* anything worthwhile to help my condition and the only one who's actually seemed at all interested or cared. :( One of her colleagues will be taking on all her patients but... but... augh. This kinda sucks. I have a follow-up appt at the beginning of Aug and I guess that's it. ._. Not looking forward to switching doctors AGAIN. I'm getting so freaking sick of recapping every single time I walk into a doctor's office. orz.

ANYWAY it's 10PM. Time to do my clickbacks on GPX+ and get to bed. x_X

I've been alternating daily between feeling good and feeling horrible, it seems. Today's been one of those horrible days and I hope I'm feeling better in the morning. I really need to get up and take a shower since I put it off all day and now it's bedtime but... augh. So listless today. :'( So here I am typing an LJ entry instead.

Today was father's day. I cleaned up the kitchen and tidied other areas of the house. I wasn't well enough to go out to get his gift so mom picked that up for me. @_@ My brother and I got him the new Tiger Woods golf game for Wii... the one with Wii Motion Plus. He mentioned the other month that he really wanted another golf game and was thinking of getting it for a console so this seemed like a good gift. :] He said he liked it so I hope he enjoys it. He didn't give us any gift ideas this year and I was a little worried he'd think we were just getting a video game so we'd play it ourselves or something but I have little interest in golf games and only slightly more in Motion Plus anyway so... yeah.

Not much else to report. Saw Angels & Demons on... Friday, I think. Then finally saw Star Trek yesterday. I have never seen an episode of TOS (or any movies) before and the movie made dad want to see them all again so I think we're going to start either buying them or renting them. XD; I'm looking forward to that since it seemed really interesting. (b'-')b

We're heading to NJ again this year like we do almost every year. We'll be down there for the weekend of the 11th. Mom and dad said they're thinking of spending a day or two in NYC again and I got a positive on going back to Nintendo World. Watch them clear out all the decent Pokedolls again this time. (Last time I went, the only ones they had were like... Grimer, Igglybuff, Bonsly, etc. Then like two weeks later someone went and posted pictures from the store on pkmncollectors showing Pichu, legendaries, etc. FFFFFFFFFFFF) I want to get another Shaymin (because I totally molest mine when I'm high and it's not looking like a collector's item as I originally intended XD) and maybe some others... and some Tomy figs. :DD Eee I hope we do end up there again.

LASTLY I'm finally getting into the interesting stuff in 358/2 which means I actually have to stop and translate stuff in cutscenes now, haha. I'm on day like... 270 or something. I just hit the MOST CONFUSING CUTSCENE EVER OMG. It was a voiced one so I couldn't even pause to translate and even if I had I think I'd be confused as fuck anyway and just aaaaah. Aaaaah. What did I see omg I don't even know. 8| Assuming I've been translating stuff right though, it IS super interesting right now. And yay the inside of Castle Oblivion got a cameo and it made me way happier than it should have ahahaha. *dork* I can't wait for this to come out in English so I have more people to fangirl it with. ;~; And so I understand it completely, haha. So many gameplay mechanics are going right over my head, I think. (Also did I mention on here that Marluxia's default weapon has my name in it? I'm not even kidding! It translates to "Traitor's Erica". :DD All of his weapons have names of flowers in them and aaah omg his super ugly default weapon is my name. I had a total dorkgasm when I realized!)

...I need to go take that shower and get to bed. :(

When did I last make an entry... *check* Okay, a while ago!

As always at school, I spent most of Thursday night doing Calculus. XD There was one question I was utterly stuck on regarding a limit. L'Hopital's Rule wouldn't work and I couldn't do anything because of the goddamn division by zero. :[ So I eventually got bored and picked up my TWEWY guide and ended up on a page with Minamimoto. I read the katakana since that's all I know these days and ended up reading "sine", "cosine", and "tangent". You know how sometimes certain things just give you inspiration and you realize what to do, even if you've been looking at the thing for aaaages? Well, that inspired me and I was all "WHAT IF I TURN THAT COSINE INTO A SINE?" and it woooooorked. PI-FACE HELPED ME WITH MY CALCULUS HOMEWORK FUCK YEAH. XD;

I came home for the weekend on Friday since it's a long weekend, I reeeally need my Calculus textbook, and... I think those were the only reasons. (It was mostly the textbook thing, too. XD)

Anyway, came home and mom said dad was at a distribution centre trying to get my laptop back since it was in Toronto, but apparently wouldn't be delivered until Tuesday. And it worked! :D I HAVE MY BABY BACK! It... well, it works, but I'm VERY disappointed that they didn't fix the fan. ~_~ The keyboard was my fault, so while I AM annoyed that they didn't replace it, I can at least deal with that. But I'm so annoyed about the fan. <_< It was annoying enough to have to send it to the states, but the fact that they didn't even fix it up like new really irks me and I definitely won't be choosing HP/Compaq for computers down the road.

Regardless, I have a cooling pad for my laptop now, so at least the overheating won't be a problem. Then mom and I saw Narnia. :D It was pretty good. It was long, but they did it well in the sense that you aren't sitting there going "omgg just end alreadyyyyyy." XD;

Anyway. The meme that went around like... freaking last week!

Pick a fandom you know I like, and I shall answer
01. The character I first fell in love with
02. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
03. The character everyone else loves that I don't
04. The character I love that everyone else hates
05. The character I used to love but don't any longer
06. The character I would shag anytime
07. The character I'd want to be like
08. The character I'd slap
09. A pairing that I love
10. A pairing that I despise

( Fandoms to pick from... unless you can think of something not on the list? )

Toy Story + 2
Lion King
Little Mermaid
Hercules
Tarzan

So... yardwork sucked. It was very cold out, but I got used to it. I won't go into it but the day was pretty damn crappy. D8 Mom FAILS at helping outside. My dad and I were so annoyed. We're usually the ones who do everything out there--especially him. Bryan pretends to help but he's very absent-minded so he barely does. D: It's dad and I who always pick up the pine needles twice a year and picking up leaves is no different. Mom... usually claims she'll "be right out" to help with [task], but always ends up staying inside or doing something else. So the time she actually DID help... she refused to listen when I told her the most efficient way to do it and... well, dad got really frustrated with her and it put us all in a bad mood. D:

Day was somewhat redeemed when we finally stopped and mom took Bryan and I to see Sweeney Todd. :D I really enjoyed it. On the way out of the theatre, though, my knee cramped up or... did whatever it used to do two years ago when I missed a lot of school. I... I guess maybe it's the weather? I stayed outside all day and that involved a lot of bending and standing and such, then to sit in a cramped theatre for a while must've aggravated it. @_@ It's getting better, but it still really hurts to bend it or otherwise move it.

I'm really tired and it's only 11. There's hope for my sleep schedule yet. \o/

Also, the phone now installed in my room (my home phone from Waterloo) is... picking up messages. I think that's bad, since we have an answering machine on the other phone. o_O; Uhh... guess I should bug the parents about that.

I spent most of my day looking into internships or co-op opportunities at all the major banks, etc. But most of them only offer them in the summer or else their internships are only available to graduates. @_@; Aaagh, I'll probably end up settling with a non-co-op job and just get anything to make money until I go back to school in May. D: I have literally zero job experience, so it's still kind of hard to get anyone to even look at me. Baaaw.

I also watched Land Before Time III today because it was on TV.

Tomorrow I have to watch my brother and make sure he does homework and such. He's told my mom that he has a CPT due when he goes back and that it'll "only take about three hours." I call bullshit since CPTs should take longer--especially for my brother who hasn't mastered doing projects at all, let alone last minute. :|

OH HAY GURREN LAGANN HAS ALMOST FINISHED TORRENTING. I started downloading this like two weeks ago and since my home connection sucks so hard, it's been going at max 40 kb/s but usually around 10 kb/s the whole time. JUST 4 MINUTES LEFT NOW WHOOO. I can finally see what the big deal is about. XD

Today was so much fuuuun. :DD

My mom decided to come up and spend the day with me. ♥

She brought up a few things and then we went out. I needed winter boots, and she decided that we were going to get me a pair of Uggs. xD; They're apparently all the rage or something, so it was actually really hard to find a pair in the style I wanted. D: We ended up literally all over Kitchener-Waterloo. @_@ At one point, we were at the mall in the Southern area of town and ended up getting a pair held at the mall at the North end, but when we got there, the person had held the wrong colour AND style. Wtf. :| At least she got the right brand, haha.

We did eventually find them though. :D For being an Australian-made winter boot (wtf!), they're really warm and REALLY comfy. They're like wearing slippers. n__n~~ Haha, I'm still wearing them now because they're so comfortable. XD;

Anyway, we went out for lunch at this all you can eat sushi place. It was really good, and cheap too, so I'm gonna have to go there more often. It's right by the closest mall. :O It was kinda weird though since there was this table with about 6 Asian kids and they had SO much food. They were there when we arrived and still there when we left with piles of plates, some full and some empty. It was insane. xD;

So yeah, after that we saw Enchanted. It was really good, although I didn't like the ending. XD; And then we went grocery shopping and then she dropped me off back home.

And I just realized I left my old shoes in the van. D: They're on their way to Toronto right now. Oops.

Hahaha, I can't stomach horror movies anymore, apparently. Not that I ever really could to begin with.

I'm stuck on the desktop, too, 'cause my parents are watching the DVD (28 Days Later) on my laptop. :| Haha, it wouldn't work in the DVD player but it worked on my laptop so I hooked it up to the TV. @_@ And now I'm laptopless because I couldn't finish the movie--I lasted like 20 minutes. I feel so queasyyyy. D:

Um, um. Redid my LJ profile today. And my sig at PC. Haha, I copied Cowrie (and in turn David who copied her).

Now I...don't know what to do. o_o

UW emailed me. My residence package has been couriered to me and should arrive sometime after today. Looks like I'll be getting up early every day until it comes so that I don't miss it. If I miss it, it gets a little complicated so...blah. :|

E3 had some interesting themes going. M$ was totally into the softcore pr0n thing. Nintendo was heavily promoting coming out. And Sony...well...Sony took along time to get it up, but it outlasted all of them. ;(

(Lol, Reggie had a line about the gaming franchises finally coming out and Gamespot had their Sony feed up about 15 minutes late.)

Harry Potter toniiiiiiiiiight.
