Music

Now that its getting close to Christmas, I'm running out of songs to listen to. That's one of the main reasons why I put about 15-20 new CDs on my list so I have something new to listen to every year until this time. Right now, I'm experiancing that with Japanese music. I've listened to every song I have and I'm getting bored with them. So, I added some NewS, KAT-TUN, and L'Arc~en~Ciel to my collection and now I'm up to 362 songs total.

I would have NewS's album color in my collection but I downloaded for an MP4 file and I can only view MP3 files. I still have the MP4 file saved if someone would like to convert it to a MP3 file.

Got to go. Sorry for a short post. Bye!

Writing

Well, with Thanksgiving tomorrow, I’m actually quite excited. Not because my mom is making her dessert she only makes during holidays or my birthday. It’s because it’s another day closer to Christmas.

One reason I’m excited about Christmas is that there’s no school for TWO WEEKS! WHOO! That means no homework, and I don’t have to worry about my research paper since it’s due the day before we leave for break.

Another reason is that I’m getting books on editing my own writing. I’ve started thinking about what I want to be in life and, well, I don’t want to have a boring desk job at an insurance company like my parents do. I want to use my creativity for something that I can change the world with. So, I decided to become an author. Hey, if Stephanie Meyer didn’t have any writing experience before she wrote Twilight, who says I can’t become and author too?

Unfortunately, I have a long way to go. Fanfiction writer like Dudly, Link and Luigi, KiriharaAkaya, awin-chan, and many others are light years ahead of me. I need to get better if I’m going to reach my dream.

My mom’s also supporting me with this (she tends to support my decisions the most). She said that she would try her hardest to try and buy the books on my list if it’s the last thing she does, which is good because I seriously need them.

I’ve already started on my first all original character work since……forever. It’s a typical story you would expect from me since it has fantastical elements to it but not too many. I don’t want to say too much about because whenever I give a summary of an OC story I’m planning I end up never finishing it. Hopefully, that won’t happen to this one.

Another thing I’d like to talk about is the Twilight movie. Honestly, I think Stephanie Meyer was lucky when she wrote the book, but she has a captivating writing style that makes people love her books. In my opinion, she needs to work on developing her characters and not making them so sueish. If she did that, she could be at the top of my favorite writers list. Until that happens, she stays near the bottom.

Now, the movie, in my opinion, was better than the book. It might be because I could see it and Bella was clumsier. If only they didn’t have the whole ‘I-can’t-read-your-mind’ thing because she’s “special”. Other than that, it was good. I sort of…..was laughing at the entire movie……I don’t know why…….But I did…..

Another?

Five days since my last post, not bad. I'm doing better on updating this blog. Thank God for my internet connection that decided to start working!

Anyways, a lot has happened since I last posted a major blog update. For one, my brother won his tournament while I had about five hot chocolates (curse this cold weather). All State results were sent back and, well, I didn't make it but, according to some people, I did better than a girl who tried out for another audition choir so I'm happy with that. The people that I know made All State are definatly better singers then I am and I'm happy for those that did make it. I'll just have to try out another time.

Anyways, its research paper time (again!). This time I'm writing a research paper for Honors Composition and Literature that will be based on a topic from Night, a Holocaust book. So, it has something to do with that range of topics. Joy. this ought to be fun! I'm so overjoyed! (not!)

Along with the promise of a new research paper (I recieved a 94 on my first one) I have to do a service project thats to be completed before Christ mas break starts (Decemeber 20th is the first day we're offically out of school). We, as a class, decided to be indentured servants to a teacher of our choice. I picked my old English 1 teacher, Mrs. Ashe, for this one. She's actually the person that convinced me I needed to move up to Honors English 2 for this year. Plus, she's like a little kid the way she prances around the room during class. I'm just happy I got to her before anyone else did. So, I start my hours tomorrow and, hopefully, I'll have 2 and a half done by Thanksgiving Break. That way I'll only need to get three and a half by Christmas.

Ah, yes, I don't believe I've mentioned this yet. Judging by the topic I recieved for a power pojnt project in Civics, I'm one of the best students in the class seeing as though I was paired up with the class president and my Civics teacher likes her and our vice-president as students. Hannah, a close friend of mine, was paired up with the Vice-President for the project. Actually, the first four presentations were all girl groups and we started with the most important topics. just goes to show that the girls in our class are better students then the guys.

I think thats all the interesting things that have happened in my life. So far, very dull. Hopefully, things will liven up.

A Kind Moment

I have probably witnessed the most....Well, I don't want to call it 'cute' or 'adorable'......Well, I'll just explain it.

We have akid on our soccer team named Kyle and he's been out for a month or so because of an ankle injury and he was able to play today in the last tournament until March. Now, with about five minutes into the first half, Kyle scored him first goal since his injury. He ran straight from where he scored to Daniel (the coach I was talking about. Ends up his name is spelled 'Daniel' not 'Danielle') and gave him a hug. I thought this was a sweet moment because Daniel hugged him back and, I guess, told him 'welcome back'. Our goalie's dad even said he wouldn't have hugged Kyle if he came up to him. I was, well, moved by this action. Daniel ovbiously cares for our team like his own kids. My mom even said 'How are you going to take away a coach that would hug his players?' He even jokes around with the players. I'll give you an example.

One game, Logan, an important defensive player for our team, yelled out to the team to remember to breath (as in through the nose and out through the mouth). Kevin, the capitain of the team, ran around to the players during the game and told them 'If you forget how to breath, ask Logan. He'll tell you.' Daniel found about this and know pokes fun at Logan.

But, back to Kyle. When we, as a team, went out to eat at a buffet place a mile or two down the road, Daniel even CONGRADULATED him on is goal. Three other people had scored goals but Kyle's had mattered more since it was his first time back. Kyle's goal then, for me, probably rivaled the time when one of our players walked the ball up to the goal line, turned around, and kicked it in backwards before the goalie got back to his post. I think that game we won 14-0.

But, we're still going to Spain in July. No one, not even our soccer orgainization, can stop me, and the team, from going.

KHR

As some may know, I know awin does, I have recently gotten into Katekyo Hitman Reborn. Honestly, I didn't think too much of it when the preview came out in Shonen Jump magazine some odd years ago but now, I love it! My top three characters would be.

1.Hibari Kyouya
2. Yamamoto Takeshi
3. Gokudera Hayato

Hibari really is my number 1 in that manga (he's my wallpaper for crying out loud!) But if there was a number four it would be Dino. I like how the manga's creator didn't go and make Dino a perfect mafia boss at a young age. Instead, Dino can only function when his men are around. Cool, no?

One thing I seriously want to know from this manga is how the Arcobaleno became babies. Something about a curse?? YAMAMOTO DO TELL!!!!!!!!!!.....But it is sort of sad. I was in Biology the other day and one of our vocabulary terms was archaebacteria and I thought it said arcobaleno (rainbow in Italian).

Now, for some icons I've found.
Anyone besides me think that he (Mukuro) looks like Yukimura? No one?
My icon on fanfiction now. Lambo's adorable. Ten years later Lambo is hot. Twenty years later Lambo is even hotter.......Can we just substitute Twenty years later Lambo in for the child one?
For those who can't read it, the icon says 'Hibari Kyouya is the only man to ever defeat a brick wall in a game of tennis.'......I have no other comment but that's probably true. Even Ryoma can't defeat a brick wall.
'Guns don't kill people. Hibari Kyouya kills people.'......Very violent that Hibari Kyouya.
Probably the best scene from KHR EVER! (Besides when we meet TYL!Hibari). Gokudera tries to teach Tsuna how to swim using math.
DINO~!!!.....No further comment.
Tsuna, if you had just drank your milk you'd be as tall as Yuuta Fuuta
YAMAMOTO! He's so dense XD
Not really caring about the blue headed guy. Let's focus on the other guy, Hibari (four~![From the Hana Kimi J-drama? Remember?.....])
Ten years later Hibari and the hottness that is him.
Both normal Hibari and older Hibari with Hibird.

After seeing this post, I hope some other people will try out the KHR fandom. I like it but I'll still be staying with the Prince of Tennis for a while.

FINALLY!

I've cleared out all of my pictures I saved to my computer. All in all, I cleared out 97 pics related to the Prince of Tennis or the Tenimyu actors and 58 pictures related to Katekyo Hitman Reborn, a new obsession of mine. All I have saved in my Pictures file (saved in folders) is Kazuki Homme Vol3 screen shots, Kazuki Calendar pics, some of Baba's photobook Meng, and Genki's photobook Wing. Out of any folder is my Rokkaku 'Weird & Proud of It' Avater I use as the icon for my computer, my new wallpaper of Hibari Kyouya from KHR, and a pic of younger Sanada. Other than that, its empty. Now, I'll have to fill it back up.

It Pisses Me Off....

Sorry for not posting in a while. School has been keeping me from getting online a lot and a trip that might be canceled has made me extremely pissed off because some racism has been added into this all. I shall explain.

First off, I would like to tell you about the man who has had racism put upon his shoulders because of how he coaches my brother's soccer team. His name is Danielle, and he use to be a pro soccer player. Everyone respects Danielle on our team. The parents, the players, even I do. He's an amazing person. He's harsh on the players when they make a mistake but they take it in and become better players. If he wasn't like that then they wouldn't have been undefeated this past season. So, you know he's a good coach. If everyone hated him, then we all could understand why racism has been put upon him.

One reason why people are being racist against him is because he yells in Spanish to the Latino kids on our team. Its easier for him because he's still learning English and is also Latino. He also feels like its easier to express something to the Latino kids in their language then in English. It doesn't really matter to the parents because we have two native speakers on the side lines with us to translate him. Other parents feel as though Danielle is talking bad about others in Spanish but its the way he is. As the parents and siblings of this team we should have the say in if Danielle can speak Spanish or not during a game. We don't have a problem with it so he should be able to.

Because of how Danielle coaches our team and the racism invovled, our soccer league is trying to cancel the Spain trip we're planning for July. Another team is going to Ireland but its only that team going (and the coach is white). Danielle opened up the Spain trip to the U-13, U-14, and U-15 teams for both boys and girls. Our team is also running a craft fair on December 2nd to try and make money for the trip and they're trying to shut down that too! I can't believe they're trying to do that!

Another thing that pisses me off about this is that they're trying to take Danielle away from our team. The league is going to replace him with another coach for the spring season. At the party celebrating our team moving up a division, from Classic A to Premire, Danielle told the parents he may not be coming back unless he gets good reviews. Hell, my mom and dad left good reviews and sure as hell the other parents will too.

It just pisses me off that Danielle might not be coming back. If he's not here in the spring, I'm giving the coach hell.
