4 More Days Now
Well, today was rather tiring. Tis not like I did anything that required much physical strength, but it still sapped all of my energy. I just wasn't at home for most of the day, and that can be tiring, I suppose.

First, I went to church. Eh, nothing new there. We sang songs, we listened to the pastor, we left. I guess that pretty much sums it up. I was already pretty tired when we got there, too. Being a teenager and all... that happens.
Then, after church, my family (and I of course) went out for lunch at our favorite Mexican restaurant. Twas good, tis always good.
And, right after lunch, Robin and I were dropped off at a friends' house, so they would drive us to this book sale.
Before we left, however, our friends had to eat lunch, and they wouldn't even be going to the sale. Their parents were going to drive us over there.
Well, while we waited, Robin talked to our two friends, Laurel and Michelle. And, they pretty much just talked about her trip to Linfield College. I didn't say much, and they didn't ask much of me. That's just how it always is, but I notice it, and it gets annoying after so long. I mean, I'm here too ya know. I have a life as well!
*sighs* Anyway, after all that annoying-ness, we left for the sale thingy, and it was around 2:10 PM by this time , and the sale would end at 4:00. AND! We had to travel quite a-ways before we got there. So, we ended up having one hour there.

Now, I hadn't really, REALLY wanted to go, but it was a way to escape my brothers for awhile, so I went. My mom gave me $7, in case I found something I liked. See, the books at this sale are only 50 cents to $1, really. Very cheap. I didn't think I'd find anything I wanted, but I ended up buying 8 books. A couple of them were for my parents; a book of David Letterman's "Top Ten" bits for my dad, and "The Dictionary according to Mommy" for my mom, obviously. Then, I got myself a couple of books about Chinese people. One of them is a novel, and another one is a biography of someone, I think. Both of those books were written by the same author, so I decided, "Hey, why not buy 'em?"
Heh, and there's one last book I feel like mentioning... actually, it's a manga that's still in Japanese. Hee, twas a good find. I hope to someday read that book, after I've taken enough Japanese lessons.

Well, after we all bought are books and got home, it was around 5:00 PM, and I was pretty tired out. Like I said, didn't do much physical stuff, but still... by then, I had been away from home for seven hours, and had only been home for one, really. So, yeah... I was ready to just do nothing.

Also, by the time Robin and I got home, Dad had started setting up the computer in our living room. In fact, I'm using the 'puter in here (the living room) right now. ("Right now" being 9:41 PM, Pacific time.) Tis cool. Like I said, this way I'll be able to be on longer and later.

I changed my theme, to Legend of Zelda obviously. And I also changed the midi to better match the background image. Tell me what you think (BE HONEST!). ^_^
Again, I'm having problems on deciding what color font I want. I'll probably end up keeping white. *rolls eyes* Oh well...

That's it. Bye-bye now.

~God Bless~
