Listening To: Nothing

Today was a pretty fun day. We went to China Town tried all sorts of bubble tea, and me and Josette were stalking people who we thought were suspicious, like this dude who looked like Santa Claus. We stalked til we dropped [No rhyme there XD] We went to a store and saw a statue of a really fat dude smiling. Josette patted his tummy and said, "Lose some weight, man." lol. Talking to statues. How retarted. Can you imagine us there?

Anyway...I GOTS A NEW MP3 PLAYER AND Rewritable CD's![Whatever they're called. Empty disks you can fill stuff in. You know.]!! I was so happy. Til my mom used the fudged up CD-R/W on her comp. And now it messed up her computer and she can't play songs from CD's anymore. And it was used before by my computer. Now I feel so guilty, I think it was because of something from me. Her speakers don't function either. And those CD's that were supposedly to hold 490 songs in one single disc was lying. What a rip. *sighs* I feel so disgusted right now... I won't sleep tonight.

Anyway, to brighten up the topic... I just saw Episode 37 of Gundam SEED Destiny. It was awesome. I hope Athrun and Meyrin will be okay. I watched the one without subs, so I didn't undestand a word except for, "Sorry", "Shit", "What", and the names. However, I did understand this: Rey's an evil servant of Gil's and Shinn... Shinn's just a dumbass [pardon my language]. Also, it was showing the possibility of a Lunamaria/Shinn pairing. I was starting to suspect it a little while back, when they first showed Bokutachi No Yukue [When Shinn and Luna were walking together], I Wanna Go To A Place... [When there was Shinn, Stellar, and LUNA. I was a little surprised at that], and when Stellar died ='(.

Need to go for bed. *yawn* Night, everyone.

   Ideas, anyone?

Well, since the bandwith died out for the song "Heroine", I've replaced it with another one. Hope you guys like it. I'm thinking of working on a new theme for the site after a few days, but I'm not really sure what theme. If you guys have any suggestions at all, please include them in the comment, because I'm totally blank today.

So my neighbor Stefanie started her own account. It's not that bad so far. Please visit her! Today all we did was pack our stuff for Indonesia, so there's not much to tell you, really.

I read one of my mom's books. Such big words, like antidisestablishmentarianism [Can't believe I remembered how to spell that... I'm actually very good at spelling XD] So it sparked me to do some research on this topic:

What is the longest English word?

We do have genuine (if rather obviously deliberate) examples in our files of antidisestablishmentarianism [LOL](28 letters) and floccinaucinihilipilification (29 letters), which are listed in some of our larger dictionaries. Other words (mainly technical ones) recorded in the complete Oxford English Dictionary include:

otorhinolaryngological (22 letters),
immunoelectrophoretically (25 letters),
psychophysicotherapeutics (25 letters),
thyroparathyroidectomized (25 letters),
pneumoencephalographically (26 letters),
radioimmunoelectrophoresis (26 letters),
psychoneuroendocrinological (27 letters)
hepaticocholangiogastrostomy (28 letters),
spectrophotofluorometrically (28 letters),
pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (30 letters).

Most of the words which are given as 'the longest word' are merely inventions, and when they occur it is almost always as examples of long words, rather than as genuine examples of use. For example, the medieval Latin word honorificabilitudinitas (honourableness) was listed by some old dictionaries in the English form honorificabilitudinity (22 letters), but it has never really been in use. The longest word currently listed in Oxford dictionaries is rather of this kind: it is the supposed lung-disease pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (45 letters).

In Voltaire's Candide, Pangloss is supposed to have given lectures on metaphysico-theologo-cosmonigology (34 letters). In Thomas Love Peacock's satirical novel Headlong Hall (1816) there appear two high-flown nonce words (one-off coinages) which describe the human body by stringing together adjectives describing its various tissues. The first is based on Greek words, and the second on the Latin equivalents; they are osteosarchaematosplanchnochondroneuromuelous (44 letters) and osseocarnisanguineoviscericartilaginonervomedullary (51 letters), which translate roughly as 'of bone, flesh, blood, organs, gristle, nerve, and marrow'.

Some editions of the Guinness Book of Records mention praetertranssubstantiationalistically (37 letters), used in Mark McShane's Untimely Ripped (1963), and aequeosalinocalcalinoceraceoaluminosocupreovitriolic (52 letters), attributed to Dr Edward Strother (1675-1737).

This kind of verbal game originates, so far as records attest, with the ancient Greek comic playwright Aristophanes, inventor of Cloud-Cuckoo-Land (Nephelokokkygia).

The formal names of chemical compounds are almost unlimited in length (for example, aminoheptafluorocyclotetraphosphonitrile, 40 letters), but longer ones tend to be sprinkled with numerals, Roman and Greek letters, and other arcane symbols. Dictionary writers tend to regard such names as 'verbal formulae', rather than as English words.

Hope you guys were as fascinated as I was XD. Anyway, please remember that if you have any ideas for new themes, I'm open. Include them in your comments!

   Thanks to all of you..*hugs*

Posting Time!

Mood: Clear
Time: 2:45 pm
Listening to: Quiet Night C.E. 73; Tanaka Rie [Meer Campbell]

First of all, thanks to all the people who tried to cheer me up. I love you guys *initiates group hug* Anyway, me and my mom talked it out. She told me why she had to leave, and why she needed the money for the job for my education and all. Anyway, everything was cool between us. I still wish she wouldn't leave, but she has her own reasons.

I finally figured out how to soup up my navbar. Thanks Steffy, for all your help! Anyway, for all of you who read my first fanfic...Here's Phase-02.

Jail

Kira punched the wall. Hard.

How could he lose her? Just HOW?

Fllay listened behind the walls. Perfect.

She knocked on the door, put on a worried face, and came in. “Kira…” she murmured.

Kira glanced at her, and sat down on the bed, a look of mixed anger and sadness on his face.

She stared at him and waited.

Usually there was at least a sad smile on his face, or something like that, to signal her that he was grateful for her company.

When that didn’t come….

He was under great pressure, surely.

She sat down beside him, and laid her head on his shoulder.

When he didn’t do anything, she crept behind him and hugged him.

“Fllay…I’m not in the mood.” Kira said, detaching her arms from his chest.

Fllay was shocked. This was the first time he brushed her off like that.

But she was determined to get the distraction of that spiky-haired, short, blonde BRAT out of Kira’s mind.

All of her attempts failed. But she kept on trying, until—

“FLLAY!! STOP IT!!”

Okay, now she was scared.

“Kira!” Fllay desperately sighed.

Kira buried his face in his hands.

“L-look…gomen…” He said.

But Fllay was enraged.

“Does she mean more to you than I do?” She asked with a cold voice.

“Iie! Fllay, you’ve got the wrong idea, I’m just worried about her because she was abducted by the ZAFT Forces, who knows what they might—!”

“Oh, so if I get kidnapped by those damned Co-ordinators, you won’t even shed a tear, would you?”

“Fllay, please…”

“Don’t feel sorry for ME, Kira. I don’t need your help on this, GOT IT?!!”

And she stormed out the door.



Back in ZAFT…
“Oh really? The prisoner is a girl?” Nicol Amarfi asked, as he opened a can of Dr. Pepper.

“Yeah, she happens to be Princess of Orb or something.” Dearka said, sipping his Coca-Cola Lime.

“Wow. And she was in a mobile suit?”

“Uh-huh. Unbelievable, huh?”

“Athrun seems fond of her. He says he’s met her before.” Yzak said.

“Really? Well, if she is the Princess of Orb, then she wouldn’t tamper with Patrick Zala’s son, considering Orb is a neutral nation.” Nicol pointed out.

“Wait, what do you mean, TAMPER?” Yzak asked.

Dearka smiled. “Oh you know, up to no good.”

—Oo00oO—

A short man in a green ZAFT Uniform came in the door.

“Athrun Zala?” He asked.

Athrun nodded.

“The commander wants to have a word with you at once. Finish your lunch and report to his office.” He said, and out he left.

Cagalli glanced at Athrun.

“Are you going to battle with the Earth Alliance again?” she asked with a hollow voice.

Athrun stared. “Is it any concern to you?”

She glared at him. “Take me back to the Archangel. Right away.”

“I don’t think you can tell me what to do from behind those bars.”

“I could pickpocket your gun if you weren’t looking and shoot you to death.”

“Okay, backing off now.”

“That’s what I thought.” Cagalli went over to her rock-bed and laid down.

Athrun smiled. “Don’t worry. You’ll live as long as I give you my food.”

“Am I supposed to say ‘thank you’?”

“That would be fine.”

“You don’t deserve it.”

“Alright then, I’ll see you later.”

“Look forward to it.” Cagalli said with such immense sarcasm that it could choke an elephant.

Athrun winced.

   I don't know what to say.

Posting Time!

Mood: Depressed
Time: 1:30 pm
Listening to: With You; Jessica Simpson

Isn't it awesome? Thanks again, sth1d4-chan! I requested a picture of Lacus and Meer, and she did a very good job.

Anyway, my eyes are really tired right now. Too much crying last night. I guess it's more of family business, but it feels better if I talk it out with someone. My mom's going to Indonesia, and she's staying there FOREVER practically, til I grow bald with no gray hair, because of a stupid job offer her stupid friend gave her. And everyone's pitying me, and I know I should be more grateful and all that, but I'm NOT, and instead, I'm sorta throwing them off, especially my sensei Unger-sama. XD So I'm sorry if any of my friends are reading this, I'm just really stressed out right now, and you're sort of wasting your time with me XD Gomen-nasai.

Oh damn, I'm crying again.

Anyway, I think I'm going to be fine. I just figured it out yesterday when I overheard her on the phone, so it was sort of a shock. But I'll get over it. On to the daily MyO news. I added a section called Mental Illness, dedicated to my friends, inspired by Alex. XD Just a little section of what my people and me have been doing throughout Grade 5 [note Elmo's World, Madagascar, and Yvon of the Yukon. lol]

Well, thanks for listening to me today you guys. Sorry if I wasted any of your time.

   Bubble Tea o.O

Posting Time!

Mood: Bored
Time: 2:13 pm
Listening to: He Wasn't; Avril Lavigne

I can't believe it. I made bubble tea... Taro-flavoured... Yummy!! Complete with multi-coloured Tapioca and all... It wasn't bad. At least it didn't make people choke like most of my other creations.. Anyway, today's so boring. I wish something more would come soon. What's going on with you guys these days? I'd like to know.

I just watched the full GSD Episode 36 yesterday. There was no Mobile Suit Fights in it, but it was still so exciting. So much running for Athrun. It was exciting to see Meer freak out when Athrun accidentally called her "Meer". "I'm Lacus! Lacus! I want to be Lacus! So who cares if it's only orders! There's nothing wrong with living a life like that!!" I felt a little sorry for her. I mean, she was so desperate XD

Anyway, I changed the background, as you probably noticed. I think it fits in more, with the colors and all. Okay, I'm gonna go now, I need to finish my bubble tea. ^.~ Well, I'll see you guys later!

   Version o.5: Tamaki Nami

Posting Time!

Mood: Content
Time: 6:10 pm
Listening to: Nothing; by Nobody XD

Well, I'm sorry for not posting in a little while. It's because I'm caught up in this game my brother got yesterday... It's called Custom Robo and it's a pretty nice one if you ignore the lame name.. Or at least that's what my cousin Puji says. Oh, and the fact I got a Trojan on my computer and it got deleted [hopefully] by Norton Antivirus.

Anyway, happy Fourth Of July to all Americans!! [Though I'm not even American... Canada is a loyal friend to the U.S.] Well, this is nice... Canada Day and now the Fourth of July.. Let's celebrate by listening to my new song;; Heroine by Tamaki Nami! LoL...Something that fits in with the theme, at last! Did you know that most of Tamaki-sama's songs have something similar to each of them? Let's see if you can figure it out... o.O

LOL... I'm so dumb. I almost forgot what the whole post was about. Let me introduce you to Version o.5: Heroine, for Tamaki Nami! Well, as you can clearly see, because I've announced it late... Yet again... I should really declare it on time for the next layout... Anyway, I hope you enjoy the new theme. I took the big pink frames off because I was really getting tired of them in the way. It makes my site too long, at least that's what I think. So I used a scrolly-thingy instead...

o.O A thought just came to mind...I wonder if it'll work... >.< Well, goodbye for now. I need to work on whatever's in my head before I forget like I usually do.

   Happy B-day, Meer!

Time: 12:15 pm
Listening to: Nothing

Well, considering that my website is partly Meer-dedicated, and today is her birthday, I decided to make a birthday card for her XD I really don't know why so many people dislike Meer so much. I know she ruins the peaceful image of Lacus and all, but keep in mind that she's her own person, and no matter how much she wants to be; she ISN'T the real Lacus. And her own person is kinda kinky. X_X

You should take a little pity for Meer anyway. She has such a weak heart when she's her own self. I wish we could get to see the real Meer in action [On second thought...Is that a bad thing? >.<]

Anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEER!!!
Tee-hee. ^^

False Reflection

I look up at the mirror and who I see is not me.
I've hidden the truth so far down inside that sometimes I think the real me has died.
I spent all my time worrying bout what other people were thinking...and as I did my whole world was sinking.
I was becoming another person, one I thought the world would desire.
But in fact I got no where and became a liar. I changed my appearance to please my peers but all that ended up bringing were tears.
To think that I'd have to do all this to make someone like me and accept me.
I have the wrong reflection...
And there's to much tension
to keep going on.
So I'm done..this was a waste of time...
If theres any life I want to live...its mine.

Happy Canada Day, everyone! *twirls lil Canadian flag around* Happy Birthday Mom...I love you so muchiess...Well, thanks to everyone who commented on my fanfic...I'll try to write a second phase to it, but with all the packing around the house for our trip to Indonesia, I don't think I'll have that much time.

Today we went to Starwalk Buffet in honour of mom and Canada, and drank Bubble Tea and ate LOADS of stuff until our tummies were absolutely full. Me and my brother bought the scale model of the Meteor Unit and it took a while building it. I can't believe we're going back to Indonesia. I hope I can still speak Indonesian, anyway. They should really put more English there as a secondary language or something, like Franch in Canada. XD I donno, I just feel sorta uncomfortable.

Congrats to my cousin Inez and the other Grade Eighters for graduating and going to Mary Wards SS!! I hope I can go there someday too...The building looks SO huge...XD

Jail
Phase-01

Cagalli looked up to the celing and sighed.

She flopped down on her so-called bed and almost yelled out loud in pain.

“Ow!” She whispered, rubbing the back of her head.

She smiled bitterly.

“Oops,” she mumbled. “I forgot the beds in here are made out of solid concrete.”

Where was she again?

Oh yeah, she was in a jail cell.

Suddenly she heard the door open. She quickly jumped back.

“What, you’re going to criticize our beds now?” sneered a boy with white hair just up to his shoulders.

He and another boy with a brown tan and blond hair laughed.

“You Naturals have to have everything perfect, don’t you?”

She heard the smooth sound of a knife against the bars, and backed away.

They laughed at her once again. She gritted her teeth.

“Yzak! Dearka!” she heard another voice come up from behind. “She may be a prisoner, but you can’t do anything harmful to her yet.”

Wait one minute.

This voice sounds familiar.

Oh! It was that boy with the blue hair, and with those piercing emerald eyes. What was his name?

A warm feeling rose upon here, a feeling that you’re not alone, a feeling that you have someone in here you’re familiar with. Athrun Zala, was it?

He turned to her, and a surprised look appeared on his face.

“Well, well.” He chuckled. “If it isn’t Princess Cagalli Yula Attha. Welcome aboard.”

Okay, feeling’s over.

“Don’t call me that!” She shouted.

“Oh, gomen, Ms. Attha.”

Snickering again.

“Well Athrun, you know her?” said this Yzak person.

“Not very well, but yes, I do.” He admitted, blushing at the moment when they first met.

“Well, Athrun, we’ll be in our rooms if you need us,” Yzak sneered. “Though I think you won’t,” He added, glancing at Cagalli.

They both heard bursts of laughter as they disappeared behind the door.

Athrun stared at her.

Cagalli looked away.

Athrun stared at her.

Cagalli looked away.

Athrun stared at her.

“What do you WANT?!” She sighed.

He stared at her in an amused way.

“Nothing,” he said.

“Just enjoy your lunch.” He slid a tray beneath the bar gaps.

Cagalli looked at her meal. Not bad for jail food.

She took a bite out of a sandwich.

Her eyes lit up. “These are good,” she said.

“Much better-tasting than I expect a lowly prisoner deserves.” She rolled her eyes.

He smiled. “Well, now that you mention it,” he laughed.

“THIS is the lunch that a lowly prisoner deserves, Ms. Attha.” He said, as he slid a tray complete with bread, butter, a cup of water, and a packet of raisins.

Gee. It’s luxury here.

Cagalli bit into the bread.

Her eyes widened, and she opened her mouth. Her tooth wiggled violently.

“That thing… It’s a rock disguised cleverly as bread!” She exclaimed.

Athrun Zala laughed. “I assure you, it’s not.”

He sat down and retrieved the prisoner food from the bars.

He started to eat it.

Seems to have trouble digesting the bread.

Cagalli glanced at him.

“So… If that was the jail food, then whose lunch is this?” She said, as she took the sandwich and bit it.

“Mine’s.”

Her eyes widened. She looked away and blushed uncontrollably. “A—Arigatou-gozaimas.”

He smiled.

“It’s nothing.”

There was something reassuring about his smile that makes you think for just a moment that everything was going to be alright.

She was going to be safe, the war would end, and peace will finally come.

They ate their lunch quietly, enjoying the company of her and him.
