Dec. 28th, 2004 10:40 amI uploaded more icons - just a few so far - in celebration of my new icon space. Three Gundam Wing and one Hikaru no Go. I'll have to decide on more as well...
This one, I made just last night as I was uploading new icons. I like it.
Mwaha.
So last night I got to see V again, for the first time in FOREVER! That was a lot of fun! We watched a few bits from the ROTK DVDs, and then a bunch of Gundam Wing. And then talked until we both got really tired. It was still pretty early. I think we're getting old.
But it was fun.
I have a lot of stuff to watch now, but I'll probably take my time with it. S'all good. I tried to watch an episode of Gundam Seed while on vacation, but it played for half the episode and then wouldn't read it any more. I also tried for Kyou Kara Maou, but Megan's computer wouldn't play them.
Ah well. Still lots to watch now.
And tonight, we will go and see National Treasure. Finally.

Dec. 27th, 2004 04:44 pmI'm home! Finally! Damnit, I am glad to be out of the car. My parents did come back with us, so Jessica and Dad drove in one car, and me and Mom drove in another. It was okay, but it got annoying after seven hours.
In any case, I am home now and all is well.
I didn't get sick after all - beat the odds, it seems. Everyone in that house was sick except for me. I don't know how I managed to survive.
And now watch me get sick tomorrow or something. That'd be kind of ironic.
I forgot to mention in my earlier post that my 14-year-old cousin, Brett, is doing voice acting for anime. So far he's only done bit parts, but recently he was reading for a character called Kaoru from Flame of Recca. I might just have to try and get my hands on that when it gets to whatever episode he's in.
Anyone familiar with Flame of Recca? Know what episode Kaoru shows up in?
Anyway, I'm glad to be home. It was especially nice to see the pets again. And I hope now to go out and do something since I spent the day sitting in a car.
We'll see what happens.

Dec. 26th, 2004 05:48 pmWell, it turns out that we ended up paying a last visit to my aunt and uncle tonight, and they have Internet access. Actually, I should be taking the opportunity to spend a little more time with everyone, but there are just way too many people here right now - it's a little overwhelming. So I retreated down here for a bit.
Christmas has been decent so far. I got a new bag and wallet, the latest Harry Potter DVD, and Gundam Wing manga. I also went shopping today and picked up MORE Gundam Wing manga, plus volume three of Tokyo Babylon. So all in all, I'm pretty satisfied.
I did some work on a couple of stories, but that may not do me much good, since I can't find the disk I stored them on right now. It's kind of worrying...
Hopefully I find that before I leave. If not, I'll have to rewrite some stuff.
Bleh. Oh well.
My entire family has been sick. My Grandma, mother, and father picked up the flu late Christmas Eve, it seems, and were very tired and ill on Christmas day. My sister caught it in the morning on Christmas, too, and my other two sisters were sick today. I'm the only one who hasn't got it yet, but it's probably only a matter of time.
And we're traveling tomorrow... yeck. That's going to suck.
Mom and Dad are most likely going to be driving back with me and Jessica tomorrow instead of going to see Leslie and Megan's game in Edmonton - not only because they aren't feeling well but because it snowed and the roads aren't great. They're worried about us driving back alone and the drive to Edmonton might not be much fun also.
So, yeah. I'll be home tomorrow night. And even though it's been fun, I'm looking forward to it. Back to familiar surroundings, and friends. V, we should do something when I get home - I can't wait to see you.
I just hope I'm not sick for it!

Dec. 23rd, 2004 05:27 pmWell, so I did get a chance to update before Christmas - purely by luck, it seems. My grandmother's computer is kinda broken, so I wasn't sure I'd get online. But we're at my cousin's house for a while, and he has Internet. Sweet!
Okay, anyway. We have arrived safely. And so far it's been fun seeing everyone again. Had a curling match this afternoon - I don't like curling, but it was fun with the family and all.
Heh. Yeah...
Oh, and![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sailormac, thank you so much for more paid time! THANK YOU! I appreciate that so much! More time with my extra icons... That is just wonderful. I love you for it.
Anyway, Merry Christmas to everyone! I have a present, sorta. I finished that Christmas story I was working on - it's a side story to Game Over. Set after the end of the story, which of course I haven't finished writing yet. There's a couple of little spoilers, but nothing major.
If anyone's interested, you can find it here. Hope you like!

Dec. 22nd, 2004 08:36 amWe are leaving today at noon. I don't know if Grandma still has Internet access, so I might be cut off until the 28th. If she does, though, I'll be able to post updates by tomorrow night some time. Or the next morning.
I can hope. I know my Friends page is going to build up in the meantime, so it'd be really nice if she had Internet access. I'd like to be able to keep up with everyone.
Plus, I'm working on a holiday story, and if I finish it by Christmas, I'd like to post it for anyone who wants to see it.
It's not quite the same after Christmas...
Ah well.
Episodes 27 and 28 of Kyou Kara Maou are up for download. I won't have time to watch them this morning, but I think I'll burn them onto a CD when they're finished so I can take them with me. I will have Megan's computer in the car since she got a portable DVD player from her boyfriend and doesn't need it now. So I might be able to watch them along the way.
Excellent.
I watched episode 17 of Gundam Seed, and I am bringing my DVDs with me. I might be able to watch more of that one along the way as well... or when we get to the hotel, or at Grandma's house.
So far, I like Cagalli. She's the only female I've been more than indifferent to at this point in the anime. I think she seems pretty cool.
The more I see of Fllay, the more I dislike her. If that's possible.
If I don't get to update this journal again over my vacation, have a good Christmas, everyone!

Dec. 21st, 2004 10:44 amWell... I managed to get through all of the Yami no Matsuei episodes I just received as my Christmas present from Jeremy. The dub actually isn't too bad - it's better than some. I don't like Muraki's voice, but Muraki is my least favorite character, so I can deal with that.
I was worried about how some of them would handle the emotional scenes in the last arc, but they didn't manage to butcher it, so it's all okay.
I still much prefer the original. But, well, that's normal.
Other than that, I had the Halfla last night. Mom chickened out because she didn't want to sit alone, but it was a lot of fun. A couple of friends did solos and such, and the show was great. There was a lot of stuff for sale that was really neat. Too bad I'm trying to save money... I didn't bring my wallet with me because of that.
I finally got around to watching more of Gundam Seed... I think I'm just stalling because I don't want to watch episode 29 before Christmas. But episode 16 was good. So far Cagalli seems kinda cool.
I'll withhold judgement until I've seen more of her, though.
Also, the attack on Archangel? Totally Fllay's fault.

Dec. 20th, 2004 09:27 amYesterday was quite busy. I made a gingerbread house when I got home from work. My sisters were supposed to help, but they ended up... not helping. I made the thing. I can be proud of it.
It looks like crap, but that's okay.
Last night, I exchanged gifts with Jeremy. I got him the two-disc special edition of Hellboy, and two goofy Gundam Wing fanfics I wrote that were based on things he came up with.
My work is appreciated. I feel gratified.
I got the third and fourth DVDs for Yami no Matsuei. FINALLY! I kept meaning to get them myself, but never had the money when I happened to think of it. Now I have them. Excellent. I own the complete series now.
I'll probably watch those today. At least one of them, anyway. I also have to wrap presents and get ready for the Halfla tonight for belly dancing.
But I'll find time for anime. Somehow.

Dec. 19th, 2004 08:15 amGot to hang out with Sarah yesterday for the first time in a long, long time. We went over to her place and I got to see her roommate's ferrets. And her cat, who is goofy. I finally showed her Kyou Kara Maou, which she thinks is great.
I had a feeling she'd like it.
Other than that, not much went on yesterday. I tried to go to bed early because of work this morning, and had more trouble sleeping than I usually have. I get the feeling I'm going to have a headache at work today. I've got aspirin with me just in case.
Stupid work...
I guess it's better that I have a shift or two before Christmas, though, since I won't be able to have any from the 22nd to the 28th. It'll be a small paycheck.
Speaking of which... I believe I get paid this weekend. Excellent.

Dec. 18th, 2004 10:29 amFor whatever reason, I haven't watched any more episodes of Gundam Seed recently. I think I'm just stalling now. Heh. Don't really want to watch episode 29 right before Christmas.
Bleh... oh well.
We'll see what happens, I guess.
I didn't do a hell of a lot yesterday anyway. I tried to get some writing done, and that didn't really happen. I mostly cleaned up my picture folders and looked up more pictures and such online. It was a slow, lazy day - which isn't bad, actually.
It's nice to be on Christmas break.
My sisters are home from Kelowna. Leslie's boyfriend is an anime fan. Isn't that odd? She was talking to him on the phone, and now he wants to watch my Gundam Wing DVDs. She refused to watch them with him.
Not surprised.

Dec. 17th, 2004 10:21 amI've said this numerous times already, but... HAPPY BIRTHDAY, V! Hope it's a great one!
This song is surprisingly good... I usually don't like image songs. I guess it IS Seki Tomokazu, though - I liked his voice when he did singing for Weiss, and I like it now. Plus, I like the feel of this song.
Damnit... the universe is conspiring to make me like Yzak. I didn't like him at first!
I did manage to get stuff accomplished yesterday. That Christmas story I'm working on is coming right along. And I finished the epilogue for Threads of Fate, my NaNoWriMo story! So it's done!
This is the first original story I've finished, and even though it's pretty crappy and rushed in places, I am proud of it. So last night I arraged it all into parts in my GreatestJournal memories, and you can find it all here if you are interested in reading it. Some of the parts end in weird places, since I tended to post when I finished writing for the day - which wasn't always at the best place to end a part.
But it's done! I finished it!
I am so proud.
I had another weird dream last night. This one was about characters from Digimon 02. I have no idea why. Daisuke had lost his mind in some kind of attack, and acted kind of vague and childish. Takeru and Yamato were looking after him for a while. Ken was evil. They were the only ones in the dream. Yamato ran into trouble somewhere, and Takeru left Daisuke in a place he thought was safe to go rescue him. Daisuke got confused and left to go after them. He ended up running into Ken, who pretended to help him even though he had no intention of doing so and was just trying to run him around in circles. And yet Daisuke still somehow finds Takeru, who tells him Yamato is missing and that he should stay away from Ken, because he's evil. For some reason, Daisuke thinks Ken knows where Yamato is, so he sneaks away from Takeru and goes to ask him to set him free. Ken lets him think that he does know, and tricks him into being his slave. I think I woke up around that point. It was really bizarre - and a lot like a bad Ken-as-Kaizer fanfic. Heh.
I did watch Digimon last night, but it was Frontier, not 02. Who knows where these things come from? The mind is a strange place.

Dec. 16th, 2004 10:07 amSo I watched the Return of the King extended version yesterday with the bf. It was excellent. All of the extra scenes were very good, they fit in well, and there are things now that are so much clearer than they were before.
I love that movie so much.
And now I'll be watching the interviews and the commentaries and everything else. It'll be fantastic.
In other news, the second FMA OST and Roy's song file are available for download on bit torrent. I don't have the links just now, but they're up on the fm_alchemist community. I downloaded them last night, and am only listening to them now for the first time.
I have all of my Christmas presents now except one. And that one is for my aunt, who I can probably get away with a gift card for Chapters or some chocolate or whatever. I'll think about it a bit.
In any case, I'm almost done and that's good. Now I just have to wrap everything.

Dec. 15th, 2004 10:32 amSo I had my last exam yesterday. It was pretty brutal. I'm so glad I had a high grade going in. I don't think I'll manage that 'A' I wanted, but I'll probably get at least a 'B'. I checked my grade for Women's Lit and noticed I got a 'B+', which is good. I think that's also what I pulled off for Philosophy, so it looks like that'll be my average for this term.
Excellent.
I'm working on four different stories. And that's not counting the unfinished stuff on my site that I still haven't touched. One is Game Over, which I did work on yesterday for a while. Another one is the last of my NaNo story, which really only needs a page or so. Then a Christmas story that I'm hoping to get done in time for Christmas. And the last is a piece of fanfiction.
We'll see how everything goes.
I watched another episode of Gundam Seed this morning. It's all Fllay's fault! All her fault, damnit! And poor Sai... The girl is evil!
Yeah. Anyway...
I also had a very messed up dream last night where Yzak and Dearka came down to earth and were hiding out in someone's back yard. Then the Blue Cosmos people came in and were looking for them. And since I haven't seen the Blue Cosmos people yet and have no idea what they look like, in the dream they were these old people who glowed blue. And they could sense Coordinators. They were all spooky and going around trying to sense out Yzak and Dearka, who were being toyed with by the little girl in the family whose back yard they were hiding in. A bunch of stuff eventually got blown up, and they went back into space vowing revenge.
It was very funny. I may just have to file it in with the Weiss Kreuz dream where Aya was investing in a birdcage.
Excellent.

Dec. 14th, 2004 09:39 amI have my last exam today... Networking, of course. I have yet to study, but that's always the way I seem to do these. It is at seven o'clock tonight. I'm heading up to the school a few hours before it starts to pack everything into my brain.
I know, I know, it's stupid, but it's worked so far. So... why not?
I'll be picking up a copy of the Return of the King extended version along the way. I've got less money right now than I really should, but I've been planning to buy this since I bought the first one, and I *am* going to own it. That's just all there is to it.
Still two more Christmas presents to buy, too...
Meh, I'll get around to those. I need to go shopping - after my exam tonight, of course. Maybe tomorrow.
I've watched the first fourteen episodes of Gundam Seed now. Yzak and Dearka are probably sleeping together. I dislike not-Zechs. I don't like Natarle or whatever her name is much either. The fact that the civilian shuttle was blown up is of course *all* Fllay's fault.
That's pretty much my take on things so far.

Dec. 13th, 2004 09:19 amUm. Yesterday was pretty much a boring day. I worked until three, and then was on the computer for a while. I didn't feel much like watching anime, so I did none of that. Possibly because I had a headache and just wanted to read for a bit.
We have our tree now, but haven't decorated it yet. It's not a bad tree.
I did watch episode 11 of Gundam Seed this morning. The last of the episodes I've already seen - so from now on I'm in new territory. I have decided that everything bad that happens is Fllay's fault. She's going to be my scapegoat from now on.
Seriously, I don't think I've seen a character in anime that I've liked less than her. And I've hated a fair number of anime characters in my time.
I don't care much for not-Zechs either. And yes, I know he has a name. I'm just not using it. Maybe it's because I keep comparing him to Zechs, and he's not matching up.
Ah well.

I did watch episode 11 of Gundam Seed this morning. The last of the episodes I've already seen - so from now on I'm in new territory. I have decided that everything bad that happens is Fllay's fault. She's going to be my scapegoat from now on.
Seriously, I don't think I've seen a character in anime that I've liked less than her. And I've hated a fair number of anime characters in my time.
I don't care much for not-Zechs either. And yes, I know he has a name. I'm just not using it. Maybe it's because I keep comparing him to Zechs, and he's not matching up.
Ah well.

Dec. 12th, 2004 08:15 amI watched through episode 10 of Gundam Seed yesterday. Just felt like it, I guess. One more episode, and I'll be through all the stuff I've already seen.
On to new material after that.
Urgh. Um. Nothing else to write about for yesterday. I had to work at three. It wasn't much fun, but it wasn't a night of hell, either. I came home and read some fanfiction.
That was fun.
I only have two shifts on the next schedule. That's good, and it makes sense since I asked for so many days off for our holiday, but it means I'll have to do some saving. I still have two more presents to buy, but that's okay. After that, I'll probably want to try and hold onto my money.
... And that'll last until I see some new anime thing that I *need* to have.
That reminds me, the first FMA DVD comes out in February...
Damnit. So much for saving.

Dec. 11th, 2004 09:22 amI made a new icon. Actually, I made two new icons. One of them is only at GJ, but one is here as well. Actually, I'm using it now. How about that?
I finally got around to watching episode six this morning. I'm looking forward to episode seven, so I think it's all okay for now. I can watch the rest of the series now.
Yeah, yeah. I take my anime way too seriously. I know that.
I did some work on Game Over yesterday. Not a lot, but it's better than nothing at all. I might try to write a Christmas story - it'd only get posted on GJ, but that's okay. We'll see if it works out and then talk about where to put it after that.
Other than that, pretty much all I did yesterday was read a lot of fanfiction. I am enjoying my vacation very much. I still have an exam on Tuesday to look forward to, but I'm not so concerned about that right now.
Work tonight. Bleh. Oh well.

Dec. 10th, 2004 09:04 amWell, I watched up to episode five yesterday before I went looking for spoilers and found that bit of information. Meh. I'll watch more eventually. I think I've just about come to terms with it.
I think this is the first time I've come across this exact situation when watching an anime. Heh. Kind of weird, isn't it?
Ah well.
At least this should probably keep Gundam Seed from becoming obsession material. I'd rather just enjoy it without worrying about obsessions and stick with Wing for now. I still think GW is the better series, so... yeah.
'Cause I'm a silly person, I went and re-watched a bunch of GW episodes yesterday to make myself feel better. Then I read fanfiction. That helped too. I'm pretty much all good now. And if anyone says 'he's just an anime character' to me, I don't know why you're reading this journal in the first place. You weirdo.
In other news, I really like this song. It's pretty.
