UM so I've barely updated in a month. Point form here we go!

→ Reading week was both productive and not at all productive. Studied a bit and then learnt I had to send my laptop back to HP (long story but I hate them to pieces now) and we didn't want to sooooo my parents bought me a netbook omg. ;o; It's an MSI Wind and I love it to pieces. So it provides me with my wifi and I'm keeping my laptop around for now and it just kinda acts as a static desktop haha.

→ Got a new phone too. It's so sexy. Samsung m*number number number more numbers* Slyde or something. idk it's pink and has a full qwerty keyboard and is my best friend. \o/ Whoo for being able to access twitter wherever. (I fell in love with it when I saw sasha_janre post a picture of her new one and had to go out and get my own since I've been planning to upgrade my phone for well over a year now. XD)

→ Wrote 8 billion midterms. Or like... 5 or something. I don't even know what number I'm approaching but it's AWFUL. My weeks are just a blur of math assignments and midterms. It's quite stressful. :( Stress is relieved by my 360. I honestly have little to say about all this since it's so boring.

→ I've been watching a lot of anime in my little breaks between class, or when I get home from class to unwind... Still watching Sailor Moon, fully caught up in Toradora and most of ToA, probably others. Watched Hetalia and liked it, much to my annoyance. ;o; Kinda avoiding fandom like whoa since from what I can tell on F!S it causes more wank than I'd care to pay attention to.

→ Health issues have been all over the place. Kinda tmi so I won't go into detail but I'm back to square -1. If you're interested past that, hit me up on MSN or something idk. I'm so frustrated with it though. Getting home for an appointment this week was a disaster too. twitter friends got a play-by-play but I basically missed my greyhound bus, missed it again at the other stop, had to city bus it to the bus terminal and then had to kill time for 1.5 hours to catch the next one to Toronto. Then when I was subwaying it to Yorkdale from downtown so my mom could pick me up, the subway got stuck for a good 15 minutes at a stop. Doors were open. I forgot my jacket. The next day was freezing too (and laced with bad/annoying news haha). ffff inaccurate weather reports.

→ Pi Day was today and that was awesome. Especially awesome when I looked up my stuff for my midterm on monday and realized it's actually NEXT Monday so I can slack off a bit this weekend thank god. It was a busy weekend because today was Pi Day (had to go buy a pie+ice cream and pick up my brother's birthday gift) and tomorrow is my brother's birthday and my family's coming up to see me. So I would've had... very little study time.

→ Got lots of Pokémon stuff lately + on the way. Shit still need to respong to an email regarding something. >< Aaah I've been so behind on email lately too haha.

→ My sink was plugged today so I got to trek over to Sobey's at like 10:30 to buy Draino or whatever. It was kind of a fun walk and it was still nice out from earlier (above zero!) so omggggggg. ♥

→ While I was home over the week, my parents said they want to take another family vacation. :] We're kind of all over the place as far as opinions go. Dad keeps pitching Mexico or Cuba or something (do. not. want. D:), mom just wants a hot vacation in the winter, and I... have no real preference so long as it's not something tropical or too... outdoorsy? Getting a tan doesn't interest me in the least. My brother and I have decided we kinda wanna push for Europe but we only have like 10 days to do it so idk. D:

→ Pokémon Platinum in one week! Aaah I almost wish my midterm was this Monday just so I could actually play Platinum somewhat. XD; Maybe I won't play it until after my midterm is done and save it for a reward hmmm.

→ ALSO I KEEP HAVING ZOMBIE DREAMS. WHAT THE HELL. CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT THAT MEANS?? Like I swear I've had about 10-15 different zombie apocalypse dreams in the last month. If there aren't literally zombies, the atmosphere is always me or someone just ahead of an outbreak and trying to find shelter, weapons, food, etc. It's driving me crazy. 8(

So yesterday I was woken up and told I had ten minutes to get ready since we were going to the bank. XD; I managed it and I applied for a credit card while I was there. :[ I hope I get approved. I really only want one so I don't have to rely on my parents for purchases that can't be done with Paypal, but it might come in handy in a pinch so... fingers crossed. 8D;

We wandered all around after that. :B We went to Best Buy and my brother and I looked at games. Then we went to LCBO and I bought more coolers because I've been out for months and I like them. ;_;' Then, um, we went to... TRU where my brother and I bought some games. :O He said he would split the cost of Burnout Paradise with me, so we got that. And then he bought The Orange Box (or rather, La Boîte Orange since the box is primarily French XD). He was going to get it for PS3 but they only had it for 360 so oh well.

<_< I'm really bad at HL2, and I think I'm just getting worse. XD; So I've paused that for a bit and... and I went on to Portal even if I fully intend on purchasing Portal: Still Alive. :| I guess I'll just wait till Christmas on that one and ask for MS Points. Bryan was playing Portal last night and I missed it so hard. It's nice playing it on a console where I can have decent resolution and not have to worry about crappy framerates and bumping the quality way down. ;_;' I'm really disappointed with LittleBigPlanet's delay, but I'm very glad it's a short one. \o/ I really can't wait for that game. I've been wanting a real reason to dust off my PS3 for a reason other than watching DVDs for a long time now and this is looking to be it. I'm so excited to play it. XD; Hopefully I can finish HL2 or something before it comes out though.

Soooo... Anime North. Been looking forward to it for ages--moreso than other years for several reasons--and I can't believe it finally came and went.

( Friday )

( Saturday )

( Sunday )

So uhh... that was Anime North! Yes, it took me over a week to write this. :( I can't wait for next year. In other news, I made myself a TWEWY mood theme over the weekend. :D I'm really happy with how it turned out. I also got a PSP and Crisis Core on Friday. I started CC but realized I suck at the battle system so I'm gonna restart and play on normal. Not sure what possessed me to pick hard mode. I didn't get very far so it shouldn't be a problem. I haven't touched it much yet though. Still playing TWEWY. @__@;

I'm feeling a lot better, too! The antibiotics helped with the bronchitis and now it's pretty much just a cold tapering off. Mind you, I'm also perpetually high because of my painkillers so maybe I'm just not noticing this stuff. XD

So TWEWY is fricking awesome. I won't be online much in the near future because I'm just so hooked, though I did manage to pry myself away from the game to play a little Eternal Sonata. Once I finish this post, I'll be going back there.

Today was pretty awesome. I woke up around 10:30 and immediately rolled over and turned my DS back on, haha. After about an hour I decided to come check e-mail, and while scrolling my friends page, mom came in to say she was heading out. I got dressed and went with her.

We stopped in at Future Shop and I got my new monitor! :D It's an LG L226WA. It was either that or the HP, and considering I've been annoyed at HP lately (and it was really glossy and I don't really like glossy screens), I decided to go with the LG. We've used an LG on the mega-new desktop for a year now and I've always quite liked it. Unfortunately, mine is a black finish instead of a slick silver like our old one, but I'll live. It's a bit depressing that I don't know what to do with it right now. I'll probably take it up to my room and game on it to test it out after I hook it up briefly to one of these desktops. I have a 14 day period to make sure it works and I won't have my laptop in that. XD; But yeah, it was only $250ish because it was an open box monitor (instead of regular $330). I was taking out my bank card to pay for it but mom was faster with her credit card. She excused it first as air miles points, but then also said it was for my birthday. Whaaaat. :| I countered that they got me the camera for my birthday and that *I* should be buying this but then she started arguing. I... I dunno. I'll feel AWFUL if I don't pay some of it. <_<; I'll probably have to give the money to dad though, ahaha.

Anyway, after that we went to Promenade Mall. We stopped in at Sears and I finally got the faulty watch band replaced. Well, not the band, but the little... spoke... thing... that connects the band to the watch. It's wobbly so it would always fall off at random times and it was very annoying. XD; After that, mom wanted to buy socks for my dad so I went ahead to EB. I found Legend of Zelda: Master Quest there so I snagged that up. *_* I also got Persona 3: FES and the MGS Collection. I didn't realize the MGS games were gonna be so cheap. o_O; When I asked my hyperactive salesperson to ring it up, I figured it'd be a full price game but... yay it wasn't. 8D; This guy was so weird though. He was like bouncing off the walls and kept pretending to attack his coworker. XD; Then since P3 and MGS are M games, he started to ask me for ID and then when I was pulling out my license, he changed his mind. He said he remembered checking my ID before and I was just kind of like "o_O" since, one, I haven't BEEN to that store probably since the end of high school and two, well, even if I DID buy an M game there (the only one I can think of was God of War and that was at Yorkdale), HOW DOES HE REMEMBER ME!? Oh well, saved my hand a trip to my pocket. But man, the guy was so strange. XD; Fun to talk to, though.

Then uhh, mom and I did a bit of grocery shopping and grabbed some food and came home. That's about all of it.

( Why I'll probably stay away from HP products in the future... )

Back to my DS now, I suppose. Excuse any typos in this post. I'm not even on the normal desktop and I'm not used to this split wave keyboard on the old desktop at ALL anymore. D8

First of all, because this amuses me: My mom wants me to get drunk. xD I've never had alcohol before in my life, save maybe a sip of wine here and there (and I hated it!) but while we were in the LCBO today, she says, "Now this may seem a bit weird, but I want you to know the effects of alcohol before you go away." So, uh, she picked out a few drinks for me to try and if I don't like them, she's going to mix me something. I dunno. IT WAS SO WEIRD THOUGH. I think I'm having the alcohol tonight, rofl. :[

Uh, so anyway... mom and I went on one last shopping spree thing before I move out Monday. We went to Vaughan Mills. I got two new pairs of jeans, a t-shirt from the Disney Store, a pencil, and some board game of sorts. We randomly saw it in a toy store and it was only $7, so we figured 'what the hell' and bought it. xD It looks like fun.

Then we came home briefly, then went grocery shopping for my dorm. And theeen... stopped at the bank to deposit a cheque and some money for my account. And then to the liquor store, then home. 8D; Oh, and we went for sushi before all this too. :B

Uh, so yeah. :x

I went shoe shopping today with mom. :\ We managed to find me a decent pair (for prom) in the first store we went to. They're heels though so like...I'm going to die by faceplant or something that night. XDD; Then we went around to a few other places and finally, stopped in at Chapters to preorder the final Harry Potter book~ :D

And gah, the more I visualize what I want my new LJ layout to be, the more pink it becomes. DAMNIT MARLUXIA. :|

Finally, CBC (a national radio station) had some thing on today about, um...duck penises. Seriously. Mom and I were sitting in the car literally saying "what the fuck" every couple minutes. o_O

1. Post to this entry
2. I will ask you a question
3. You will spend 3 minutes of nothing but thinking and typing to answer my question. You must time yourself for the three minutes, and promptly stop once the time is up, even if you are in the middle of a thought, sentence, or word. Then you must post it.
4. You may not press backspace while answering my question. At all. All typing errors, grammical errors, misplaced sentences, the like, must be left perfectly preserved and posted.
5. Post this in your LJ as well so it may spread like the West Nile Virus~

I loved this meme. SO I'M SPREADING IT AGAIN. >:O

Anyway, mom changed her mind so I'm back in a dress for prom. XO I think we're just reusing a dress I've already got though. So yay, no more shopping. (Though we did go to Vaughan Mills today. We stopped in the Disney Store. Mom bought me a Nemo cup. :D)

Can't wait for bedtime. I'm tired.

			Currently: Groggy. I dunno why. XD Listening to: Nothing x_o Current Tags: memes, shopping

Lol, I should so make that fake boxart at Gamestop/EB Games

Those amuse me so much. XD;

Anyway. Went prom dress shopping today. I somehow managed to convince mom that a suit isn't totally out of the question, and she'd rather I get a suit because it's not so stupidly expensive for something I'll never wear again. So yay! We didn't find anything though. I did get some other clothes, however. :B

I also caught a male Cherubi this morning when I woke up. And it evolved this evening. :D I haven't seen its cuteness yet though since it evolved during twilight/evening/whatever, so it's in its non-light form. Which looks like a closed umbrella. WAY TO GO MARLUXIA. BE MORE PINK DAMNIT. :[

Haha, it's almost 9:30. I should go to bed. ._.;

Trying to win auctions on eBay still makes me all nervous. Buuuut...I bought a copy of the first Phoenix Wright game. Yaaaay. ♥ :DD

( This brings me to my second point. Is anyone interested in buying the second Phoenix Wright game from me? )

Uuuurgh. I've had an awful night. x_x;

( Saturday )

Not much else happened. Nothing interesting anyway. Tomorrow is Animal Kingdom. I'm gonna head to bed now since we lose an hour tonight meaning I have to get up at what'll feel like six in the morning. XD; Ew.
