It's Been a While, Huh?
...And I REALLY gotta replace the background image. Same with my World, too.
but anyway, it has been a while. I keep updating my World but not myO. It was mainly to shake my dad off (wasn't sure if he still read these posts or not, but still), though he's more interested in stalking Andrew's facebook now. So probably starting with my next World post I'll be updating here again as well, for those who care to listen.
Though right now it's 2 am and Dad's home - he doesn't take too kindly to sleeping in, so I'll be dead in the morning. Until next time, ja ne~!

FIIIIVE GOL~DEN RIIIIINGS~!
Four calling birds, three French hens, and a partridge Gilbird in a pear tree~!
Ren: … it’s a few days early for that, isn’t it?
CCR: don’t make me bring up Switzerland’s MKC…
Ren: -_- what does that have to do with anything?
CCR: never mind. XD
So…. Been a while, I guess? I guess with me updating not-so-often-anymore I’m more… eh… “normal” by otaku standards compared to when I posted almost daily? *checks* O_o wow, it’s been almost ten days since I last posted! Let’s see, what’s happened since then…
Well, I got my grades. All A’s except for math. Which I got a B+ in. And I got my schedule sorted out, so next semester I’m taking Math 151 (even though I really do need only 141/142… ah well, that’s just by the ASU standards. BYU will probably want me to have 151), Intro to Mass Communications, Communications (in general), and World Religions. In total, 13 credits. At this rate I don’t see me getting my associates in 2 years unless my scholarship covers summer courses. In which case I’d probably have to take two this summer to make up for it.
Ed: do I need to borrow Hungary’s frying pan?
CCR: no… why?
Ed: because you’re being overly negative again.
CCR: no, I’m just stating the facts: I’ll probably have to just take whatever credits I have and apply for BYU… I may be one of those people who takes 6 years to get a 4-year degree. Unless I get married before I complete my degree – and don’t go saying I’m too young. Well, in some ways I am, but still…
But we did go back to Arizona Mills this week – yesterday/Thursday, to be exact – and this time I knew far enough in advance that I was able to get $20 from my mom… which was all spent in a Soul Eater gashapon figurine (turned out to be Black Star and Tsubaki) and a set of two Soul Eater pins (Soul and Maka) – and to finish it off, a Haruhi poster which is now up rather unevenly on my wall. And I’m too lazy to fix it at the moment, so I just have to be grateful that I am not acquainted with someone of the same OCD level as Death the Kid. And on the way home we stopped at Tawny’s house to drop her off (she came with us this time)… and German Shepherd puppies are officially adorable. Because I say they are. At least Tawny’s are. <3 Cole especially~ But then I’ve always had a soft spot for the runt of the litter – be it dogs or cats.
And today, while Dad went with my brothers (my biological brother, Andrew, and Robbie) to see Avatar, I worked ever so little on the last chapter of A Hetalian Christmas Carol, which will go up on my fanfiction world as soon as I finish that chapter – and with any luck, it might eventually be up as a fan word too… if the Fan Words section survives Edition Skinny.
But then I didn’t get too much work done on the story, because…
I made a Mochimerica plushie today. And other than the fact that I think I made the eyes either too small or too close together, ‘tis adorable. X3 if I get that desperate to show ‘im off, I’ll take a pic with my webcam.
In other news, I saw New Moon this past Saturday… Robert Pattinson should NEVER. EVER. Be shown shirtless in a film. My goodness, I almost gagged. X.O it was all flabby… and gross… and hairy.
And I started watching the drama for Hana Kimi, and asked for volume one of the manga for Christmas.
… I think that’s all that went on this week, though it’s incredibly out of order. And now that I think of it, I’m praying that Whiskers doesn’t touch the brownies in the kitchen, considering that chocolate is bad for animals.
Goku: too late, I ate them all.
CCR: … you… WHAT?!
Goku: I kid. I don’t want to die by your stepdad’s wrath. Talk about scary.
Ren: so the Monkey King fears an obese Americ –
CCR: that’s enough, Ren.
Speaking of which though, knowing said stepfather he’ll probably ensure I’m up before 10 am tomorrow morning, and I won’t be as lucky as I was last night to have gone to bed at around 10:30 to 11 (right now it’s 11:43). Until next time, ja ne!

Girls' Day Out
… though I still feel bad that I didn’t have any money. TT.TT
Ren: that’s probably for the better. You would have bought anything that you could possibly suggest to your mother for regarding Christmas gifts.
CCR: true… Still, All 4 Anime is all the way out in Arizona Mills.
Ren: you went to Borders today too, though. And that’s at the mall out here.
CCR: true. And I did see some manga I want to buy~! ^^
Ren: finish KHR vol. 2 first.
CCR: part of what I plan to do over break!
Especially since, as it would seem, I’ll probably have no time to myself whatsoever in the Spring semester. I’m trying to sign up for Math 151 (college algebra – the class everyone says you have to have to transfer to any university… poo) and English 102 – with the same profs for their respective fields as I had this fall semester. And I’m taking communications and intro to mass communications (journalism). At least the Biology classes were on a Tuesday-Thursday block so I couldn’t take it, geez… But I’m going to try and get into an art class of some kind, or maybe an online World Religions class – maybe both, so I can catch up on the credits I didn’t have this past semester, and I don’t know if my scholarship covers summer courses.
I just have to wait for the override confirmation e-mail from my math and English professors because both of their classes that I’m trying to get into are full. I hope I can get those classes on my schedule before the people in charge of my scholarship see my current schedule and revoke it (I’m supposed to be registered for 12 credit hours per semester – today I was only able to register for 6 because I’m waiting on those STUPID OVERRIDE CONFIRMATIONS!slkdjsdl;fjsadl;fjsadf).
This next semester, I’ve decided, I may very well have no life at all from mid-January until May. But hey, that’s what college is about, right? Sacrificing a good four to six years of your youth to invest in a better life.
Ed: would you stop overreacting? You thought this semester was going to be like that too. And once you had your homework cleared, you were home free.
CCR: but other than math, I was taking pretty much a bunch of not-so-work-intensive classes.
Ren: need I direct you to Kit’s LJ posts? Apparently she still finds time for things other than school, and she’s been balancing many more classes – and harder classes – than you have for nearly twice as long.
CCR: I know, I know…
Okay, moving away from stressful topics!
After Kya and I went in to register for our classes, we went to Misa’s house, and… ended waking her up. But then she did say we could come at any time, according to Kya.
After Misa got ready, we picked up some lunch at Kya’s work, and we drove out to the Mills. We walked most of if not all of the mall, and in addition to browsing the new All 4 Anime store there, Misa and Kya dragged me into different clothing stores looking for stuff that I could potentially wear other than my current wardrobe… which due to much of my shopping being done with my grandma at Bealls, is sort of… drab, I guess you could say? I mean, there’s some cute stuff in there, but not much. At least it keeps me modest though and none of it is too revealing.
… Ah. Crap. I think my grandma’s coming out tomorrow.
Goku (Saiyuki): does that mean she’s taking us out to eat?! :D
CCR: nine out of ten, yes.
Goku: W00T!
Ren: darn monkey… getting so hyped up over food.
CCR: imagine if we had the Dragonball Goku here – believe me, a Saiya-jin’s appetite is far worse than even our resident basket case monkey-king.
Goku: heeey! D:
CCR: just stating the facts, sorry.
So, I guess that’s it. Currently all I’m doing is typing this up and talking with Kya over our webcams. Until next time, ja ne!

We Have Stood the Test of Time, and Passed the Test of Italy
Quoted (probably not exact) from a box of Barilla pasta. Random, I know.
So let’s see, last time I posted here was… Wednesday.
So Thursday, I THOUGHT I was going to take my Sociology final… but then I wanted to go run errands with my mom, because I’m an attention-starved mama’s girl like that. XD I kid, I kid. And that ended up taking most of the day, to the point where I was almost late to Institute and didn’t even eat dinner before I went. Thankfully, though, they had pizza that night. :3 I do love me some Little Caesar’s. Too bad my family ALWAYS gets pizza from Costco.
But it was worth it, for I now have FELT! >3 only problem though is that Joann’s didn’t have any flesh-tone felt that I saw, so I still have to use this cotton fabric for the body that’s so flimsy and always screws up and – and … okay, enough of my complaining. But I did get some nice, soft white material so I can make myself a Mochimerica plushie. Why? Because I’m random like that. And who knows? If I have material left over, I may make more mochis for other people…
And I just realized, if I have any of that light blue flannel left (it’s not felt, but it’s close enough)… I may be able to make a Zel plushie, technically. (for those who don’t know, I refer to Zelgadiss Greywords from Slayers). >D that’ll be a fun side-project if I can ever get to it… his clothes would be hard to make though. But otherwise… REFI! I KNOW HOW TO MAKE ZEL SQUISHY! We just have to plushie-fy him. :3 (I know they sorta did that already in Next, but that’s not the point!)
Zel: *facepalm* that won’t work…
Ren: it might not be as hard to make the clothes if you actually went by a pattern. And you know there’s a relatively low chance that Refi will read this, right?
CCR: both statements do have some truth. But even if I did make the clothes via pattern, I’d have to figure out how to get them on. With the pattern I typically use the head tends to be extremely big in comparison to the body. And then you sort of have to sew the clothes onto the body anyway if you don’t want the plushie to be strip-able (wow that sounds wrong)….
Okay, enough talk about plushie-making! On to Friday!
Ren: change the subject, why dontcha?
CCR: meh.
So Friday, I DID take the Soc final… and I got one question wrong. It was a true/false too (there were no essay questions on this one). I guess Jesi was right about that. Depending on the wording, T/F questions ARE hard. And then the rest of the day was spent commencing my Christmas Elf duties for the year (a.k.a making/preparing people’s presents) and RPing with a group I joined… and may soon quit. I won’t go into specifics, but sometimes the topics that come up are sort of inappropriate. I mean, such is often almost expected in the Hetalia fandom, but still. Some of it started to go too far. Finished my first big Christmas Elf project late into the night… and now there are bits of stuffing that somehow escaped the bag and did not go into the plushie.
Goku (Saiyuki) : so does that make them plushie guts?
CCR: sure, if you see it that way.
Goku: … eeew.
CCR: what’s “eeew” about?
Goku: that means every Thanksgiving feast I’ve been to I’ve eaten plushie guts!
Ren: it’s not THAT kind of stuffing!
Goku: oh… so do you mean the little white cotton fluffies flying around?
CCR: that’s the stuff.
Saturday/yesterday, I got up and dressed, did some research for my Institute paper, RPed a little bit more before I got disgusted by something and logged off, then went over to Rae’s house. Ended up staying there until my mom got off from work.
Today, I went to church, came home, took a nap, made pasta for dinner, and finished the first prompt answer for my Institute paper. My day in a nutshell.
Tomorrow (or today seeing as most will read this on Monday), I will take my math final, and then in the evening, my English final. I hope I can print out my other papers at Kya’s place and/or on campus after my math final, because the computer that our printer is hooked up to is so whacked out you can’t do much of anything with it anymore. And I don’t know where the printer drivers are so I can just install them in my laptop and plug the thing into it. Hopefully I’ll get some more work done on my Institute paper too, and get that done and printed out before Thursday. … Crap, that means I gotta do it tomorrow if we do end up going to Kya’s house after my math final. Good thing I already thought of that and packed my scriptures in my backpack.
Seeing as it is almost 11 pm where I live, I probably ought to head to bed. After all, plenty of sleep and a good breakfast are two components that can contribute to good test scores (guess I’ll have to fix up some PB&J in the morning). Until next time, ja ne!

For We Need A Little Christmas, Right This Very Minute
… I don’t know the rest of the words after that! D:
But yeah, a few things happened today.
Other than my final, I am officially done with my Sociology class. And because our final is taken at home online, I guess that means if I don’t take a history course sometime during my time at CAC I never have to see my prof again. But Prof. Warner’s cool and I like history, so I doubt that’ll last for very long.
Math – other than my final on Monday, which must be taken in class, done.
English – same. Only concern here is that I gotta gather up all of my essays as the “research material” for any two of the four possible prompts she could give us on the final. Let’s hope I can figure out how to print out the ones that we turned in online, shall we? (Printer’s been screwy and low on ink lately)
Art Appreciation – please, I finished that two weeks ago! Would’ve gone to class this evening though if it weren’t for…
The choir concert at my former high school tonight. I must admit though, it was rather different seeing the concert as solely an audience member rather than as a performer/audience member like I did last year. It seemed to go by a lot quicker though. Still, everyone did great. :D
Not too much else today really… sad thing is, I’ll probably type up a more detailed post on LiveJournal and/or dA. I’m sorry guys. ;A;
Until next time, ja ne!

From Atlantic to Pacific
Gee, the traffic is terrific.
So Friday… actually, not too terribly much happened on Friday at all. I was going to make pumpkin pie, but those plans fell through the roof – same on Saturday.
But then Saturday I went to Misa’s party with Kya. It was a Death Note themed murder mystery game mainly (in which I was the third Kira, apparently, and I didn’t even know this until the very end); after which we went to Kira’s house (Kira as in one of my friends; obviously I’m not referring to Light).
Today was mainly church, then choir practice, then actually the rest of my day was spent online until sometime in the evening where I prepared something that I probably should not disclose here. All will be revealed tomorrow though…
So, that’s my Thanksgiving break in a nutshell. Tomorrow I go back to school, and hopefully I did well on that English paper because I’m going to turn it in tomorrow evening. And since Mom’s taking me to school tomorrow instead of Kya, I probably should go to bed early so I can get up as early as I need to (since Mom has a doctor’s appointment at the same time that I usually get to school). Until next time, ja ne!

It's Like America, But South!
Quoted from Up.
… I think this year I had TWO Thanksgiving dinners.
Tuesday night of course was our “official” Thanksgiving, since Robbie (Andrew’s older brother) was home, and Dad for that matter, and we had the sparkling apple cider that night. But then last night (as in Wednesday night, I’m typing this on Thursday) we ate the turkey and stuffing that my dad bought from Costco for Tuesday night! @A@ so I guess that was our second Thanksgiving dinner?
So yesterday/Wednesday, math class was a breeze. Only got maybe two or three problems wrong on the review packet that was due today! And I finished the second one that’s due Monday… except for one pesky problem. Darn you complex numbers and your perpetual ability to confuzzle people. Then after Kya got out of class we went to her house and hung out for a bit – where I knocked out my English paper, working draft and final copy, all in one shot! >D take that! I just hope I can finish that paper for Institute just as quickly… I ALMOST wish that Brother Lewis had given us BYU credit-applicants the assignment for the paper last week. At least then I’d have more than just a week to work on it. And considering BYU is a full-blown University, they’re probably gonna want several pages or a few thousand words at least (even though honestly the only English class in which the instructor has EVER fussed over word count that I’ve ever had was in 9th grade). Later in the evening Mom called and asked if I was going to be home for dinner…
Well, I was home for dinner – and Kya came with me. :P Finally she got to have dinner with us other than that one time when we went to Old Country Buffet.
Today mostly consisted of hanging out with Mom while she did her math homework and I finished up mine – and on that note, other than checking my grade periodically, I am DONE with MyMathLab for this course! Huzzah! Not that I’m not fond of MyMathLab – I love the program. Just I’m glad to be through with the silly thing for now. I also went over to Rae’s house to drop off the tomatoes that Dad bought last Saturday… Mom said they were going bad and she wasn’t going to use them anytime soon – but I knew Rae would. :3
I also finished chapter 3 of my Christmas Carol parody (I’ll upload it here as soon as I have the last three chapters done – hopefully before Christmas)! :D Now I get to write about Fi – I mean the Ghost of Christmas Present! I’m not giving away who it is yet! :P you guys have to wait.
Ren: do they even care?
CCR: actually… considering only maybe two or three of my friends here are Hetalians, and the fic features Hetalia characters, I don’t think they do.
Goku (Saiyuki, obviously. :P ) : O0O HOLY CRAP – CCR, I LOVE YOUR DAD!
CCR: … you figured out he didn’t bring the turkey up with him after all, didn’t you?
Goku: yep! :D I am one happy monkey!
CCR: at least someone is. ^^
Ren: just wonderful. We have to deal with him running around all night now… And on that note, CCR, I forbid you to make that home-made pumpkin pie tomorrow.
CCR: too late, we have to use that boiled pumpkin in the fridge and I’ve extended an invitation to Shana to come over and help.
Only problem is that when I asked my mom to write down her recipe for me… she told me to look it up on the Internet. I asked her about it, and she said that that’s what she always does.
Goku: wait… so… the pie is a LIE?
CCR: no, but the cake is.
Goku: *glances at a cake in the fridge* you mean… that’s… ;A;
CCR: yep. The cake is a lie.
Goku: I don’t believe it! *drops his leftover turkey and hugs the cake* you’re not a lie, right cakie?
Cake: …… *well of course, cakes can’t talk*
Ed: so, I don’t even like upside-down cake (a/n: that’s what kind of cake it is).
Goku: D:< blasphemy! Don’t judge the cake!
Ren: I’m pressing the “add post” button before this gets any further out of hand.
CCR: that might be a good idea.

Thanksgiving Turkey? Why No Jimmy, This is a Thanksgiving STEAK!
A dang good one at that.
In short, my Thanksgiving dinner was this evening (Dad’s working Thursday so we did it early)… and even though Dad had bought a (pre-cooked) turkey and a whole box of stuffing, instead he made steak, mashed potatoes, and veggies. Not that I mind of course because I am a steak-a-holic. No joke. A good beef steak to me is as pasta is to Italy. And that’s speaking in both Hetalia terms and somewhat real-life.
… Although I do really really like pasta. And Spanish rice. Always have. Okay then, scratch that. Steak is just my all-time favorite land-animal-based meat. Favorite fish is a tie between salmon and tuna, depending on how it’s prepared.
Tuna always does come best in a can though – at least compared to tuna sashimi. Raw salmon isn’t bad though.
I must admit though, my only lament for this year’s Thanksgiving: what happened to the stuffing? And the cranberry sauce? AND THE YAMS/SWEET POTATOES (which by the way I still don’t get the difference between the two)!!! TTATT
Ren: why all the talk about food preferences?
CCR: ‘cause it’s Thanksgiving (even though the rest of Americans aren’t celebrating it for another two days).
Ah well, I’m going to my grandparents’ house for Christmas this year, so surely Nana will make an amazing Christmas dinner that includes those things. … unless we’re just going to Marie Calendar’s for dinner.
Now for what actually happened today!
Ren: though most people probably stopped reading this by now.
CCR: =Y you’re mean (though there’s a good chance it’s true)
So I got up and ran some errands with Mom (she had to do some stuff at the hospital so she could be cleared to go back to work on Friday… which, since she works there would involve going back to the hospital. Weird twist, huh?), then went and took my math test, on which I scored an 87.6 or something… and raised my grade by .6%! Hey, for math when I’m just 4% away from a 90, that’s pretty dang amazing. Mom also filled out the registration form and got her ID, so it’s official! Next semester, WE’RE GOING TO COLLEGE TOGETHER! =D wow… never thought THAT would happen ten years ago.
Then afterwards Dad told us to meet him at Costco… so we did. And were dragged around the store. That’s where he told us he bought the pre-cooked turkey, and I guess the steak we ultimately (and deliciously) ate. We came home, I napped for a bit, then Mom and I did the dishes so Dad could start dinner, and then Mom studied, I tried to go back to sleep again… before either of us knew it, dinner was ready and the day mostly over.
And that just about sums it up. I’m just now hoping that I can get the inspiration/motivation to finish my English paper by the due date… which is next Monday. And I’m really REALLY hoping my prof responds to my e-mail.
Until next time, ja ne~!

Insert Title Here... Again
Well today was rather interesting.
After breakfast, Kya had to go and donate blood, so I tagged along with, homework in tow. Then afterwards we went to Borders to work on our homework – well, I did homework anyway. Kya sort of did her own thing. But I must say, I’m glad I got something done today, unlike when I usually do something on one of my off-days other than stay at home and study.
Though on that note, I think I might prefer studying at Borders better. They have Wi-Fi so I can do my math and research for my papers, and it’s quiet/peaceful, or at least more so than at any given time at home, and there aren’t the distractions that I might have at home. Only problem is that I still can’t drive and therefore can’t do this all too often. Ah well.
Then afterward we came back here, watched Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (mainly just to make fun of it though), and afterwards… we just got on our laptops, did our own things, and are wishing for it to be Christmas already! Oh, and I also found an AMAZING fanfic, though it is short and does have some religious references. But if you like Hetalia and don’t mind that it’s about an OC made for a country that hasn’t been Hetalia-fied yet, take a look.
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5516706/1/Rebirth
Speaking of fanfics, I also have completed chapter two of my most current one… and am starting on another one (thankfully it’s a one-shot though).
O.O oh crap...
FMA chapter 101 is up. Knowing Kya, she’s gonna read it. Wah, I hope things don’t turn for the worst… ;A; (I won’t spoil anything at the moment here)
Well, I’m off to work on fanfiction a bit more, I suppose. Until next time, ja ne~!

Masquerade~
Paper faces on parade~
… I’m 90 percent sure I messed that up.
But anyway, Let’s see, what’s been going on since Tuesday…
Wednesday was spent at Rae’s house – though I barely remember what happened. Oh! Now I do. I went over there to find that Shana’s friend Haruhi was over, and since she’s been really hyped up over Pandora Hearts, I got to watch the first two episodes of said series. … So. Much. Angst. Well, kind of. I’m not really sure if you can call it angst, necessarily, but it’s like – holy-crap-what-is-going-on-here-save-Oz?-But-no-one-can-escape-from-the-Abyss-why-hasn’t-the-girl-aged-and-what-does-that-mean-for-Oz and GAH! There are probably spoilers in that sentence, so I spoiler-blocked it in case you’re looking into that series and don’t want to hear my rant on it. But still… gah. I may have to pick Kit’s brains a bit about that. Then in the evening when I finally got to my discussion board postings for Sociology Rae’s mom called and I ended up going to… well, we’re not allowed to call it Enrichment or Homemaking anymore, so… I got it! Monthly extra Relief Society Activities! I think that’s what they call them now… But yeah, we went to that, and we had soups in bread bowls. The Italian soup was amazing~! Then there were crafts later, but I didn’t sign up for any of them since I missed the Sunday that they were passing around the sign-up sheet. The glass boxes were sooooo cool though. ;A; that’s what I get for missing church, I suppose. Still, the shiny bows… and the Christmas lights inside. Gah.
Thursday was spent mainly sleeping, working on homework, and going to Institute in the evening. But the sleeping part was in part because a) I was dead tired, and b) I wasn’t feeling so hot.
Friday I slept probably until about noon… might’ve worked on homework a bit, not sure, and went to Rae’s house for dinner (her mom had invited me prior to that) – that being said, I got to meet the missionaries serving in our area. I knew one of the guys from before, but the other elder recently got transferred and the new elder in the area was there. Then when they tried to share a message with us (as they do, even when visiting the members for dinner and such as was this occasion), they put in a DVD that I guess they had JUST gotten that they had never seen before, called “finding happiness.” We tried to find English on the language settings and kept getting all of the Nordic/Scandanavian languages… then we got to Western Europe and there was only British English. So we watched that, and afterwards Shana joked “that was very nice… except I didn’t understand it because I can’t speak British.” XD afterwards Shana kind of talked me into sleeping over and she and Hana and I watched Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty (though when we put Sleeping Beauty on Hana decided to go to bed). I asked Shana if she was purposely trying to turn me into a total sap/hopeless romantic that night, and she replied, “yep.”
Twelve-year-olds say the darndest things sometimes.
Saturday was spent hanging out at Rae’s house – drawing collabs with Shana on my laptop (though that was actually Friday night… oops), watching Babar and, in my case, writing fanfiction was the name of the game. That is, after we got back from playing at the park for several hours and singing Christmas carols. And hot chocolate, we had that too. ^^
Sunday, I went to church, came home, checked what I needed to check, and slept until about 3 pm, at which time I took a shower and desperately attempted to straighten my hair before Kya came to pick me up (the outfit I was going to wear to the play that night, at least I think, goes better with straight hair). Which I did, but barely. ^^;
“What play?” You ask. Look at the post title!
Yes, we saw The Phantom of the Opera.
It. Was. AMAZING!
My only regret was that, like with the TSO concert last year, we had to go on a Sunday.
I won’t go into details about the show so as not to spoil it (since I know one of Rae’s siblings is going to see it on the 20th with his school’s orchestra – dang it, how come a JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL can afford stuff like that but a HIGH SCHOOL couldn’t?!). I will say one thing though: towards the end of the prologue, be prepared for a rather shocking surprise with the unveiling of the chandelier.
… what am I talking about? He probably won’t even read this! Ah well, if Rae reads this I suppose she could pass the message on… and on that note, Rae, if you ARE reading this, you better have gotten well into your American History work for the day beforehand. And any other homework you might have.
Ren: -_- you’re not her mother.
CCR: I know, I know, but… eh. What can I say?
Well, that be all, unless I were to talk about school today… and the fact that I’m sleeping over at Kya’s tonight, but that isn’t much really. Until next time, ja ne~!
