My DeviantArt account (Foocha-Kyo)
Or on GaiaOnline.com, as Shirokiryuu.

So I guess I'm not coming back here then. Thanks so much to all you guys who were my friends here^^ I’m very greatful to all of you~ I'd love to get in touch with you on one of the other sites. (I’m not sure I’ll remember all of you ^^; but it will be great anyways)

   Wheeee~!
(This was originally written yesterday, the 17th)

So, today, three of my friends and I went to San Fransisco Japancenter (with two moms accompanying us, of course ^^; ) because we're complete Japanophiles :D (spelling?) My favorite place was Kinokuniya Bookstore, I love getting manga there, even though I can't go that often. So this time, I bought:

*Webster's New World Japanese Dictionary
*Death Note 7 (Japanese) (Even if I can't read it >w< )
*Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children: Prologue (My friend and I screamed "KADAJ OMG!!!" )

I was sad they didn't have any Japanese Trigun... apparently #13's not out yet. I was really looking forwards to it! Waah~!...

And yeah, with the little 'stats' thing, I know it says I'm reading Death Note and Advent Children, but really I'm just admiring the art. (not bilingual! ) With the Advent Children book, my friend and I both freaked out and grabbed a copy at the same time. So now, we have identical books. We wanted to buy the bigger book, but it was $33. T_T And besides, she spent like.... $71 at that place! I think she got... two volumes of God Child, an UVERWorld CD for herself, another CD for another friend with us (they were $15 each! :o ) and some Japanese manga or something... and my other friends bought a bunch of manga too, but not as much. And we had crepes for lunch.... I really don't know how to spell it.... mine was egg salad. It tasted good... and I had soda. And theeeennn.... uhh, what did we dooooo..., oh yeah, we went window shopping because we were broke XD And there was a SWORD STORE!!! Except they all costed like... hundreds of dollars. And you had to be over 18 to buy one. And we're all 13 and 14. lol~
We also went to this music store. At first, we were just walking by, but then I saw a sign on the window that said "L'arc~en~ciel" and I pointed it out to my friend because she likes that band. And then I looked next to that sign and there was another one that said Gackt... and we got pretty excited.... and then there was another one next to it that said.... Dir en grey. At that point, the two of us freaked out and ran into the store with our other friends trailing behind going "What???"

I was still broke and didn't buy anything. But we're going back next time to buy MUSIC!1!!!1one!one!!! *excitement*

And there were crazy people on the MUNI (it's a bit like a subway/bus system). A bit after we got on, this guy (in a green coat, I remember very clearly,) ran up to the front of the bus saying to the driver, "Hey, there's some guy back there who looks like he's gonna hit me! He's gonna hit me!" and he was pretty dramatic... and then the bus driver told him to bring the guy up to the front of the bus, so he went back there and it looked like he was talking to someone, but after a while the driver started asking other people if someone was actually back there (which is when we started freaking out) and the guy didn't say anything, so then we pulled over and the driver said one of them had to come up there or she'd call the police (at this point several people got off the bus)... so then this other guy in a red jacket starts walking towards the front of the bus, looking kind of drunk and I was sitting in the isle seat, so my friend and I were pretty much clinging to each other. But nothing else happened... thankfully.

And on the way back, someone else was singing Depeche Mode's song "People are People." He was actually a pretty good singer...
~~~
Next Day (today, the 18th)
Yaaaaaayyy!! I'm so happy I got into the Japanese class I was trying for^^ It's at a community college 0_0 So in a way I skipped high school for the summer >w< I wanted to get into the morning class but it was full, so I'm in the afternoon class instead (noon-3:30) Unfortunately, since it's in the middle of the day, my family can't go anywhere with me until the weekend (we like to take day trips). Sooo.... the textbook we're using is called Nakama 1. It cost $50 TT_TT But it's worth it. The first 15 minutes of every class is basically immersion. It was so funny, when we first came into the class the instructor was only speaking Japanese, and we all thought we were in the wrong class! But we caught on pretty fast^^ The instructor Sensei would hold up a picture of a person and say "Kono hito no namae wa nan desu ka?" (what is this person's name?) (not sure if I wrote it right... ^^; ) and we'd say whoever it was, like "Charlie Chaplin desu" It was fun^^
Ja, mata~! (See ya!)

Oh yes, and I forgot to post that I graduated Middle School last week ^^ Afterwards we had a graduation party until 10 pm (graduation ended at 5:30) I'm sad because most of my friends are going to a different high school than I am...

  The title is a bunch of quotes my one of my friends an I have said over the past... five... days. On Saturday we were working on a history project with another friend and when we were finished, we ran up to the 7-11 to get slurpees... while wearing one of each other's shoes. It looked hilarious because I had white tennis shoes, and she had black converses... dang I want a pair of those! And then we came back and watched TV... and Final Fantasy Advent Children on her iPod. (Vincent=COOL.) So we were planning that both those two friends and two other friends come over to my house the next weekend, but that didn't work out... :( So they all came over Sunday!! At first, we went to her house around 11:00 am and played DDR and Guitar Hero and ate lunch. By the way, I'm pretty good at Guitar Hero II now but I suck at DDR >w< And then my friend whose house we were at got out her sister's sword and was being threatening with it. Yes, her sister has a real sword, it's too dull to cut anything but it's still really cool^^
Soo afterwards we went to my house and played DDR and Guitar Hero II and Super Smash Bros Melee. With SSBM I was playing as Young Link because I can beat ANYONE as Young Link >w< and one of my friends was Kirby and everytime she got knocked off the platform she'd start screaming, "LIVE, KIRBY, LIVE!!!!!!!" while flying it back to the platform. BTW Thunderhorse is the best song on Guitar Hero II. ^_^

And Wednesday brings more insanity...

(Yes I know I skipped Monday and Tuesday but nothing interesting happened -_-)

So after watching 5 minutes of Advent Children and a music video of what I am now guessing to be Dirge of Cerberus... four words... VINCENT VALENTINE IS AWESOME. I wanted to buy Dirge of Cerberus but my mom would probably freak out and ban me from playing Playstation because it's a shooting game and she' s weird like that.... but I'll buy it when I go to college >w< So at school I was drawing Vincent and my "LIVE KIRBY" friend walked up and shouted something along the lines of "OMG VINCENT!!!!!! @v@" which is where the third quote in the title comes from.

In Orchestra we did this really weird Mad Libs thing that had nothing whatsoever to do with music, and two of the blanks to fill in was the name of a woman, and the name of her boyfriend. We had 'Chanel' and 'Sebastian'.... this other group had someone and Michael Jackson and then the funniest one was Mark and Hailley. But Mark was the woman. *giggles* So after the warning bell rang and we went outside, my friend and I were making up REALLY weird couples like "Vincent and Yuffie!" and "Vash and Kuroneko!" and then I said, "Legato and Wolfwood!" Which gave both of us a 0_0 look for a moment, then she said, "And Wolfwood's the girlfriend!" which prompted me to shout, "Knives and Legato and Legato's the girlfriend!" (That was my favorite. ^.^) This dissolved into randomness like "Vash and Donuts!" "Wolfwood and Cigarettes!" "Ketchup and Mayonnaise!" so we were lying in front of the science room laughing and then the bell rang and our other friend came out and stared at us like we were insane which we were.

The end^^

P.S.:Oh yeah on Saturday we were attacked by Jehovah's Witnesses. These two ladies came and I answered the door but then my mom politely got them to leave... then we were talking about how we shouldn't open the door, and right at that very second the doorbell rang. And it was another lady. Except this time we didn't answer it and she stood there for, I swear, 10 minutes and my friends and I were hiding in my room. :o

*ZZZ*
WELL, I've had a ...full... week. Our school had STAR (Standardized Testing and Reporting), which I guess is like an SAT, but I wouldn't know because I've never had one -_- The irony is that the school told us we should get a good night's sleep and eat a good breakfast, but then all our teachers overloaded us with homework so we were up late working, then overslept the next morining and had to dash out of the house. My [insane] history teacher had assigned an essay due friday, and she reminded all her classes twice through the intercom to turn them in. That's because we had testing until roughly 11:00, then only 4 out of the normal 7 periods of the day. It was a different schedule every day, and very confuzzling! And then Saturday... we had a 'festival' (codename for competition >w< ) called CMEA. The way it works is, bands/orchestras come from all around... either California or the Bay Area (that's where I live), I'm not sure which, and we play a selection of pieces for like... 6... adjudicator ppls. At least that's what our orchestra conductor calls them. After that, we go to sightreading and then check our scores. The scoring is : S-Superior (the best), E-Excellent, G-Good, F-Fair, N-Needs Improvement. Every year our orchestra has gotten straight S's (yay!) except recently from one judge who is listed as "S. Tyler". He hates us and gives us E's This year, luckily, he wasn't here! So we got straight S's (does that mean otherwise we're curvy?), except for sightreading, where we got a... G!!! >:o But it was fun overall ^^

O yesh and I've gotten hooked on Death Note after reading one volume of the manga and watching the first live action movie. I swear, they must put crack or something between the pages of the book! L is the best!
