I'm suffering from an acute case of guilt right now, because I'm about to leave Wei, my current violin teacher. Today was supposedly my last official lesson before the exam next week, but I felt kinda sad about it, so I made another lesson with him, at the Conservatory next Wednesday. -_-; Yeah, you'd think I'd be glad about no more lessons, but despite the fact that he's always yelling and scolding at me during lessons, I almost don't want to leave him now. I mean, I've been with him for... almost 5 years. And that's a long time. I've known Ben equally long, and I'm looking forward to lessons with him, but god I feel so guilty right now... I feel like I'm betraying Wei, since I'm not even planning to tell him that I'm switching teachers... *sigh* I'm such a baka... I shoulda known better than to make rash decisions based on strong momentary emotions. I do know better, but I guess I lost a hold on my wisdom then. Oh well, it's too late now... unless I can get my mom to pay for lessons to both teachers... Naw, couldn't happen, and then I'd feel like I'm betraying both.

Aha! So I wasn't the only one who noticed that sentence about "gleam of something like triumph" in Dumbledore's eyes in Harry Potter #4! Thank you Vinita! I say Dumbledore is evil! Speaking of Harry Potter, Charlotte invited me and Maryam to the Metreon for the premiere of Harry Potter movie! Sugoi~!! Love the Metreon! Love Harry Potter story! And the two together is just so kakkoi~!! Maryam doesn't like Harry Potter (hasn't even read it actually), but she's going just for the Metreon. ^_^
Gah! Gotta go back and finish my Stat homework! I originally came on to see if Henry had answers, but I got hooked on blogging. Anyway, Henry was absolutely no help at all...
Keiko: What'd you get for #54?
Henry: Dunno.
See? Fat lot of help he was... Great, now I'm all huffy! I don't wanna go to bed with a stomach full of fire! Gotta work this anger off somehow. Maybe go do sit-ups or something... Oh well, still gotta try to understand #57, even though the answer's in the back of the book. Speaking of the back of the book... I think there's some kind of black mould growing there. I poked at it with my pencil, and it's kinda soft and dry and squishy. *shudder* And it right over the Table B of Randomized Numbers too... Eww...

Okay, disregard that entry about tampons and pretend I never overstepped the bounds of propriety... I was having a bout of PMS that day.
Whoa. Chinese SATs this Saturday. I keep on forgetting that. Well, I hope I do well, cos it would be really embarassing if I missed even one question... Wait a minute. I don't even know where I'm suppose to go and when it is and stuff. Thank god for mom. Anyway, got my exam date notification a few days ago. My Associated Board of Royal Schools of Music practical exam takes place next Saturday at exactly 4:12 p.m. Pssh, and they said they'd give four weeks notice. This is barely two weeks for me to get ready. My teacher's having trouble finding a pianist accompaniment for me, because of this late notice. He says I might have to go to the Conservatory for a pianist. Anyway, I think it's good and not good that everything is happening so soon. Good because I can get it over with and go on with my life, and not good because I HAVEN'T PRACTICED SCALES AND ARPEGGIOS FOR A MONTH!!!! This means I'm gonna have to practice those nonstop for the next 2 weeks and I don't wanna spend time on that! >_< Oh woe is me...
As much as I hate to admit it, I do believe that Jean might actually have a harder time at school than I am. Oh well, can't complain with what I've got, even if it is a little too much to bite off. Oh yeah, I coulda told Jean that DAI sang the ending theme to Inu-Yasha. "Fukai Mori" is such a pretty song! >___< Ahem, anyway, I haven't seen W-inds on Hey^3 at all! Where are they? I wanna see them sing live (or semi-live) too! Jean was supposed to come over last weekend, but her grandma had a stroke, so she couldn't make it. That's too bad, both for her grandma and for me. Oh well, Christmas, then... (okay, this is pathetic... who's ever heard of best friends only seeing each other 4-5 times per year?). Speaking of Christmas... Oh Kauru-chan~~~ Guess what I found at Kingstone Bookstore the other day~~?? A W-inds cd!! Of course, it's not a Japanese import, but I'd say it's just as good, ne? If you want, I could go back and get it for ya? *dangles cd on a string* Oh yeah, Ka-chan, you emailed Maryam about a livejournal, remember? And Maryam told me, so that's how I know. Well, I told you about my KT blog, so we're even. BTW, such pretty colors for you new blog. Lavender's kinda predictable for you, though, ne? ^_^ I say write about semi-deep topics if you've got something to say. It's what I do on my KT blog. Everyone's gotta have a little privacy.
Oh yes, Ka-chan... who's says I haven't emailed you? I have too! You just haven't replied. Besides, we're both busy with school, and I know you haven't even updated K&K yet. -_-; Oh and one more thing, suddenly I'm openly your best friend, ne? =P After years of having a picture of you and Helen in that picture frame by your bed that says BEST FRIENDS?? Sheesh, Jean, that really bites, you know? BTW, Keita-kun is super kawaii~~~!!! I don't see the Irish look though, but hey, no one Japanese ever looks Japanese, so it really doesn't matter. One more thing... GIMME BACK MY YNM MANGA!!! =P Why are you drawing Tsuzuki? Can I see? I wanna see!!! About that "obsessing over every guy under 18" thing... I hope you're not gonna do that when we go to college... ^_^;

Wow, I feel so heady! *swoons* Okay, so I'm made of stronger stuff than that and I've never fainted in my life, but you get the point. I think I'm experiencing a crush all over again, except on the same guy. ^-^ *blush* Ok, so I don't really blush either... hey, blood just doesn't rush to my face as easily as it does some people. I'm not pale either, so even a faint blush would have a hard time showing.
Maeda Ai's voice is soooo pretty! About half the songs on my burned Digimon cd are hers. I think she sings most of the songs for Digimon. And gawd there are a lot of Digimon songs. I usually remember a song title after I've listened to it, but trying to remember all the Digimon song titles would be murder. Oh well, that's not the point.
Oh yeah, I kinda brushed off the PSATs last Saturday in the face of my Yahoo Mail situation, so here's a quick (or maybe not) recap:
Ivy came over on Friday to watch the new (taped) Friends episode (I swear that girl is obsessed with Friends), and before she left she asked me if we could walk to PSATs at school the next day. So we did, except for the first time in months both me and my mom's alarm clocks didn't work... but no biggy, we weren't late, even though all the gates to the school were locked and we had to walk all the way around the school to the A-Hole entrance. Except it was more like squeezing through crack between the metal fence doors. Anyway, I was feeling generous and let my mom accompany us(which does NOT happen). I saw a lot of my friend including Maryam and some others, but I didn't feel like talking to them. Probably woulda yelled at them or something that early in the morning. So anyway, my mom was nice enough to check my room number for me, since I couldn't squeeze through the crowd (quite unusual for me) and it was the last room. It turned out to be my French classroom of two years, and lo and behold, who's the first person I see (or notice out of my percipheral vision)? Andy Turner. "Wonderful. Just wonderful." I remember having said to myself. Not a second later, Maryam calls out to me from near Andy. You know, it's a strange thing. Last year, I was in a Spanish classroom and didn't know anyone in there with me, and this year I was in my French classroom, and oh look! There's a friend, there's someone I know, there's someone I don't particularly care for, and there's someone I don't like! -_- Oh yeah, did I mention Kevin Tharp (the little squirt) was in my class too? Anyway, PSATs went good. Nothing to complain about there. Had to wait a long time for Maryam to wait for Elena though. Not fun, I tell you, standing in the sun like that. Went home, went to art class, brought my cat, who, usually so courageous in attacking my feet, was scared shitless in a new home. Crouched by my feet (how ironic) the entire time, and then purred on my lap the entire car ride back home. My drawing's going well, though. I hope I can finish it soon. My teacher says that's what I'll be entering in the art competition this year. Last year it was a Chinese painting.

Ok. Let me say now that I have low pain tolerance...
I, who am not afraid of bugs, am not afraid of the dark, am not afraid of clowns (freaky as they are), am not afraid of even death... am afraid of a mere tampon... and bicycles. Don't aske me about the bicycle. It's a long story involving a vacation back to China and an accident caused by my *sarcastic voice* oh-so-beloved cousin. Now, I'm forever traumatized by bikes, especially if I have to ride it in China. Oh by the way, did you know that tampons HURT??!! Screw this! I knew I never liked being a girl. I mean, besides having the obvious advantage of being smarter than guys, and being able to dress up on a whim, what else is there for females except PMS, damn periods, pregnancy problems, and labor pains? Screw tampons. I'm using pads for the rest of my life. I must have done something really horrible in a past life to have been born a girl in this life... *gloomily* yeah, probably some atrocious sin that I have to atone for in this life. Ok, if I keep this ranting up, I'm gonna have a giant sized headache in a bit.
Why do I always have weird things to be afraid of? First bicycles, then daddylonglegs, then tampons, and Ivy just reminded me that I'm scared of rollerskates too. *disgusted sigh* Bicycles make me quiver in my shoes, tampons makes me want to cry and whimper, daddy-long-legs makes me want to scream at the top of my lungs, and rollerskates just plain makes me nervous. Oh yeah, fear of rollerskates is all thanks to Ivy, my dear friend. And spiders and tampons are self-afflicted phobias.
Yea! My mom brought home soda and chocolates! Wow! I've been craving chocolates for weeks, and I haven't had a soda in ages! (all thanks to my mom of course) ^-^ Oh what a luxury! I'm all happy again! Ugh, except now she's yelling at me about the boiled eggs that I polished off this afternoon, and something about $2 cucumbers that I was suppposed to eat but didn't. Eh,gonna go before I get anymore irked. Oh yeah, got disgusted with Yahoo last Saturday. Think I'll try again.

"Guruguru" is a pretty cool song, distinctly DAI style. But DAI sometimes gives me a headache, and the only song I can stand to listen to for long periods of time is "Fukai Mori", which is apparently Inu Yasha's ending song.
...Argh, I forget what I wanted to say! This sucks! I guess I'll just have to wait till I remember... In the meantime, I've been finalizing the pics for my next layout. Yes, I know I've been dragging this out, but I just can't find the time to upload the new layout and make necessary changes.
Last night, I started typing up manga summaries for Yu Yu Hakusho. I'm ashamed to say that I'm not even half done with the first volume. =_= I didn't think it would take so long. I supposed I'm being too detailed in the summary. But it's fun, so I'm putting up with it. Also, I think that way it's an incentive for me to go and finish buying the series. I have vol. 1-5, 10-13, 15-16, and 18-19 in complete Taiwanese edition, and 6-9, and 14 in crappy mainland China editions. I read vol. 17 at the library, but it's gone now. I wanted to finish buying the series so that I'd have everything in nice neat Taiwanese edition, but have never been able to persuade myself to go do it.
Hey! Maryam copied my grey on black idea! Geez, first the AIM font colors, then her blog. I'm never gonna be original around here if people keep on copying me. Ok, next layout: thin stark blue on white!

Ugh! Pitas is being sluggish and it's slowing down everything else. Or maybe all those mp3s I dled is finally getting to my computer.
I overslept this morning (by like 5 minutes) and since I needed to take a shower and was going to be late anyway, I decided to skip 1st period orchestra and dozed in bed for a while longer. *stretches luxuriously* Oh that extra 20 minutes of rest really did some good. Except tomorrow I'll have to answer to Karen... =P Blah. I'll just tell her the truth. I won't be punished that severely cos I'm an upperclassman.
Me and my cat have a love/hate relationship. One minute she's purring on my lap (for some reason she especially likes to do that right after I've had a shower), and the next minute she's sinking her teeth into my foot. Sometimes, I'd be walking, and she'd try to follow me, and nip at my heel everytime she comes close enough. My mom noticed this and commented that the cat never did that to her, so we both stuck out our feet, and the cat came to investigate. She sniffed our feet and seemed unsure of what to do. I realized that she was used to biting the heel, not the toes, so I turned my foot around, and the cat immediately lunged at my heel. Just goes to prove my point that the cat has no gratitude. I mean, I found her in the streets when she was 4 weeks old, brought her home, fed her, and give her shelter. Why would she possibly want to bite me? *pauses* Okay, so I occasionally terrorizes her, but most of the time, she just waltzes up to me and bites me for no reason besides the fact that I just happen to be walking by. It's like her part time hobby, or something! Oh btw, my cat looks like Clinton's cat Socks, except mine doesn't have the black spot on her nose.

Well, I've done it, and I'm sick of it. Living healthy doesn't suit me. So, I've been Seiji, now it's time to go back being Touma-chan. His personality is more suited to me anyway. Alas, but it is not to be so as long as I still have school. I'd love to sleep till noon, love to stay up all night, love to watch the stars (damn near impossible in a city), love to bathe in the light of the moon, but it can't happen as long as I've got orchestra first thing in the morning.

Wai~~!! I had the most wonderful dream last night! Too bad my mom woke me up right when it got really good. =P It left me with a very warm feeling in my stomach until about first period, and then it sorta vanished in the light of reality, but that didn't really matter, because by then my day was going pretty well. My violin lesson went better than I expected. For once Wei didn't yell at me. And then I went to take my math test. Even though I didn't get an A, I thought I still did pretty well, especially considering that this test doesn't drag my grade down too much. And then, I came home, rested, read a bit, and then got ready to go to Phyllis' house for a third and final rehearsal before we performed at Spenger's Fish Grotto. I thought our performance of the second movement sucked, since we barely had time to pull it together and did absolutely terrible in staying together, but the first movement turned out okay. I'm just glad that not too many people were listening to us. However, someone whistled in the middle of the second movement for everyone to quiet down, and I remembered thinking, "Not now! Everyone will hear how bad we sound!" Later, Phyllis said that she thought the same thing. I think all of us played softly as soon as we realized that we didn't sound right together. I have to admit that I got a little lost in the middle of the second movement because I didn't count right. I swear, it was impossible for us to stay together, because for some reason counting in 2 half-notes was really hard. Before all of this, we got fed though. Lots of seafood. All very delicious. No water though. All they had there were wine from different vineyards. I finally went to the bar and requested some water. Very obliging waiters, may I say? Of course, it's their job, but oh well.

In the words of cartoon Jackie Chan: "Bad day. Bad Day! BAD DAY!!!" Well, tomorrow, that is. I swear, I have at least 6 activities lined up for tomorrow. I've got a violin lesson after school, a math test after violin lesson at I.S., then a chamber performance at Spenger's. The bad news is: We've only had one rehearsal for the performance, and I know I haven't practiced. Plus, our cello player (Jonah) just got his part today, so... Well, we'll get a chance to rehearse in class tomorrow, so, I hope that's enough. Now, gotta go back to French homework. Just a review of Futur and Futur Anterieur verbs, so it's not that hard (whew, thank god). After this, all that's left is math homework from I.S., cos I finished my bio homework yesterday and my English homework today. Yata! Kudos for me.

Yum! Mango pudding is so good! I just got up 1/2 hour ago. *sighs dreamily* I finally got some sleep! Not enough in my opinion, but hey, 10 hours is good compared to 6 hours.
Agh, I just noticed something. The first thing I think about when I wake up everyday is "Damn. Got a lot of homework today" and the last thing I remember before falling asleep at night is "Shit. So much homework to do tomorrow." and of course, on certain Fridays in the morning, "Fuck. Two tests today." So basically, my life has started to revolve around homework. Life's not fair. But hey, who said it was? Oh well, at least I caught up with a lot of my Government homework last week. Still, all that stuff that I get from I.S. does nothing to help me. I mean, Independent Study is supposed to mean that I get a lot more free time, but I seem to be spending a lot of that free time on homework. It's all that homework from Government that kills me. Notetaking is all I ever do in that class, besides reading, that is. You'd think reading would be easy for me, but nooooo, everything in that damn government book is about, well, government! Which by the way, is boring as hell. Also, it's not my fault I like to take my time on homework. I don't like to rush things, because then it's easy to make mistakes, which I'll just have to spend time correcting later anyway. Anyway, enough complaining. I'll be doing enough of that throughout my junior year anyway. X_X
The weirdst thing happened yesterday, and it just happenes to be another example of my weird logic. My mom took me to dinner at 99 Ranch Market last night, or , actually, to the Sheng Kee Bakery & Cafe across from the market (I kinda just refer to that whole Pacific East Mall as 99 Ranch anyway). When we got home, it was pretty late, and I went into my room to change into pjs. As I was coming out of my room into the living room, I heard my mom coming down the hall. I didn't feel like talking, and I knew that if she saw me in pjs, she'd ask me if I was going to bed already and why so early and all that other stuff parents tend to ask, so I did the only thing I could think of: I tried to jump back into my room before she could see me (and thus avoid all the questions and the necessity of me opening my mouth <--see, weird logic). Of course, what happened was that since I was already in the motion of heading forward, I had to regain my balance before I could jump backwards (and yes, I was seriously contemplating JUMPING backwards into my room), so my mom ended up coming into the living room just in time to see me skip backwards into my room. She started laughing (yeah, I guess the sight was pretty ridiculous) and then my head caught up with my instincts and I realized how stupid and irrational everything was. It did seem like pretty sound logic to me at the time, and I took no time hesitating. I suppose it's probably just another example of my extreme laziness as well, but imagine all that effort I went through just because I was too lazy to open my mouth (of course I had to explain to my mom what I was doing anyway, so that kinda spoiled the plan).
Okay, I better go if I want to accomplish something today (namely homework).

Is it just me, or do I have an obsession with sleep and anything relating to sleep? Like, maybe, dreaming?
