the kangaroo communique --> back-up style!

I haven't been posting much of anything here lately. I doubt that it's just because I've been busy with school.

.... *stares at Plurk*

THAT REMINDS ME. IF ANYONE IS WILLING TO JOIN ME OVER AT the darkside PLURK, USE THIS LINK TO SIGN UP. YOU WILL MAKE ME TOTEMO HAPPY DESU.

*coughs*

Right. Anyway, an eventful weekend was eventful! Friday was a pretty "light" day for me (Library Orientations for both my En11 classes + a short and sweet lecture for my Lit 13 class), so I still had some energy left over to handle Kritika Kultura's late afternoon meeting. I now have a better idea of exactly what I signed up for, and I'm not sure whether I'm going to like it, but I do know that it'll be good for me in the long run. :<

Friday evening traffic totally fucked my mood over and sapped up my energy, but it was lovely seeing yukitsu, kye_kestrel, khursten and Sarah! We ate dinner and spazzed on random stuff before Sarah, Khursten, Yukeh and I went off to watch Wanted. Lynffles didn't join us because she had already watched it and she wanted to go home in order to put in more Plurking tiem.

There are no words to describe that movie's awesomeness. o_o

Got home real late and Plurked a bit more (SEE HOW IT IS TAKING OVER MY LIFE?), but that's okay because my Lit 251 class was going to be a free cut anyway. Slept in, Plurked even more, then zipped off to ADMU to attend my second class. All the readings I'm taking up are giving me a much wider vision of what graduate studies are like and what just how expansive the literary world really is. It's some kind of majorly cool.

Met up with Yukeh after class, and we headed over to Gateway to meet up with innocentlyjaded, lonelybusiness, dreamlesssness (YES, FINALLY!), and... *drumroll* team7, who was totally eaten up by her job and stuff and IT'S JUST AMAZING TO SEE HER AGAIN, Y'KNOW? Read or Die things were discussed, game plans were drawn up, and spazzing was accomplished. Dinner was great -- I just wish I could've enjoyed it more. Heat + not really eating decently the whole day took its toll on me, so I kinda sicked up sometime before I had to head home. Sorry about that, guys. ~_~

Will be going to Mass in a bit. I'm willing to waste most of this day away because there won't be classes for us profs tomorrow -- it's ACP day, so all the college kids have some required thing or another to attend to make them Jesuits happy. I'm supposed to join Kristel and Yukeh for RoD business, but I'm not sure whether I can charter a ride.

I haven't posted music in a while, so here's a new mix to celebrate my first LJ post in nearly a week.

I will devote another post to my epiphany on Hibari Kyouya of KATEKYO HITMAN REBORN! fame. >_>;

This weekend ended wonderfully, and was the best possible thing a girl could ask for after having an exceptionally harrowing week.

Saturday: yukitsu came over although she slept in and should have been around earlier than she was but she fails at waking up so yeah 8D -- we fixed my room (sort of... at least everything's been shoved out of sight and my bookshelf is back to being pretty? o_o), bought (and ate) ice cream, and watched Macross Frontier and Appleseed. Deunan Knute goes right up there with Balsa and Balalaika on my Tough Women I Want to Have Babies With Even Though They'll Prolly Kill Me list, and THERE IS SOMETHING FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG/RIGHT WITH ALTO BEING KANDA!FACE + ABE!VOICE. D:

Today: The usual Sunday gig, 'cept Petrik's family made a guest appearance; Anika got to bully bugger Dad with her cuteness in order to get him to crack nuts for her (no, for serious: she's fascinated at how he does it), and Petrik and Yas talked to my mom about their Church wedding plans. They might have the ceremony in Taal, with the Punzalan Ancestral House as a possible venue for the reception. They left an hour or so after lunch, and everyone kinda went their separate ways... I did some more writing (mostly backlogged drabble ideas from WAY back for Endtimes) and picked up where I left off with the doujinshi downloading madness. hitman_reborn is a bad place to be for a fangirl like me. *coughs*

Being able to do absolutely useless things is very satisfying -- I'm listening through the music lists for my stories (and all characters/pairings/battles within) and STILL downloading KHR porn doujin, and yukitsu and I are also spamming each other's inboxes with FF.net alerts while we update our accounts with all the crap we've written these past few months. People who have me on Author Alert must hate me for the huge-ass fic dumps I have a tendency to do. XD

Right. Now, since third time's the charm and all, if you haven't already answered this poll for me, please answer. THE TIES MUST BE BROKEN.


EDIT: I POSTED MORE STUFFAGE @ THE WRITING JOURNAL YAY!

EDIT 2: Posted again. It's Oofuri porn this time. ♥♥♥

...See, I know I should get a Multiply account now that I've taken to abusing Abel!Phone's camera, but getting one means maintaining yet another webpage. Besides, I think I suck at taking photos, and all of them are from a camera phone anyway. =_= Anyway.

( ZE GLORIOUS LJ CUTTAGE! )

And tomorrow, it's a commuting trip to Laguna, all for the love of ravyn_ashling.

Yes, yes. Drabbles, I know. *pushes yukitsu and archangel_dream down*

Btw, Code Geass 23 had its moments. Lelouch was, for one and as usual, the sole redeeming factor the whole episode. At least the Token Pink-haired Girl(tm) is finally dead.

Updating from Nikolai. This makes me want that laptop even more. Good thing the parents are receptive towards the idea. I will be naming him Aidan in all likelihood. :3 Will be changing the name of one of Alistair's drives to Ouki as a result. Alistair is sure to be sad.

Numb towards requirements. I've got my midterm orals exam for Philosophy tomorrow (part of the reason why I can't make it to the RoD meet this time around ~_~), Retellings critical analysis of the Met's take on Romeo & Juliet (4 pages in; debating on whether I should bother with editing), Long Test #3 in Math 12 on Tuesdays (read: scr00d on Singles Awareness Day), Battle Royale analysis for Ethics with pyrosinferno somewhere next month and the Retellings compilation thingie (7 pages and counting for my yakuza Cinderella~ <3). There will be other things in the coming weeks, I'm sure.

Somebody tell me that I'm not the only one in the audience who's feeling weird over the passage of this semester. @_@

Annoyance over being kicked out of Retellings is slow to pass. It wouldn't have happened if I had known about what was going on. I asked, nobody told. Oh well. =_=

LO ladies, if I'm coming to turn up tomorrow it'll only be for the dinner or what-have-you that will be happening afterward. Details as to where you all will be following the RoD meet are needed.

I still hold by the fact that Sentou Yousei Yukikaze is one of the best science fiction series I've watched yet. Five episodes long, and each of them's pure love. If you haven't watched it already and you're unwilling to do the BT piracy rounds online, folks, it'll be coming out on Animax. The rampant boy love in it brought about by the fact that it's gay without ever meaning to be is a plus too.
