Things are okay. I think it was just because I actually wanted to get up earlier today, because I have some stuff I'd like to do before work today... Whenever I know I need to get sleep, that is when my body decides it will not fall asleep. It's really great. I'm just teasing you. Remember; sometimes, I'm evil. I don't really think you have anything against the majority of religious people. I understood what you were trying to say. I think my favorite reaction I got out of you to this day is the one when I told you you couldn't drive, though, haha. Even though I felt bad and apologized for that one. I actually like a fair bit of alternative christian music; it's what I grew up on, kind of. Along with secular alternative music. My brother was actually in a christian ska/swing band called The W's, and they toured a lot and were friends with one of my favorite bands ever: Five Iron Frenzy. Five Iron Frenzy were a christian ska band. They had a great side project, too, called Brave Saint Saturn. (Just to be clear, if you don't know who they are: Nightwish, TSoL, and the Vandals are not christian bands. Although one member of the Vandals is a Catholic... there is also a scandal involving him and the ex-members of the band. They formed the band before he joined, they all left, he kept the rights to the music and, for some excuse or another, claimed to have written all the songs himself and didn't pay the ex-band members royalties. Way to represent Catholicism, man.) I am invisible so I can be sneaky, my dear. I am a ninja! I could come in and poke you in the ribs, and you wouldn't even know where it came from! Anyhoo... Wuv, Yer Mom
Hm, everything okay? I know that I can't sleep when I've got too much on my mind. .-." For example, when some guy I really hate gets on my nerves again I won't fall asleep for hours, though I lie in bed. <.<" I get the feeling I'm really not able to write properly anymore. O.o" I don't know any basketball teams. xD" But "city of roses" sounds really romantic. <3 I'm pretty sure I've just read the name when skipping through the cities Dream Theater went to during their tour. xD" Well, I suppose work's the same in every city. .-." The only thing that's different is the people you work with. Huh? I've nothing against people who've religious beliefs? Where did you read that, mister? xD It's just that I have my own way of believing in God. I hate people who want to tell me how to believe. How to pray. How to do everything. <.<" What I should believe, when I should believe... you know. xD" I just can't stand those people (Jehova's Witnesses, to be exact xD") who think they're right. Religion is nothing you can be right about. <.<" Christian music... .-." Doesn't sound that great. (I don't like "satanic" music either. xD") And still, there's nothing to tell you. Except, of course, for: Why the hell are you invisible in the forum??? XD" I always wonder who could've written to me. <.<"
I was almost awake until 6 am last night. Couldn't sleep... What's awesome is that I have to be up at 7 am tomorrow morning. Tired, tired... Portland is home to the Portland Trail Blazers, the basketball team. It is also the "city of roses." There really isn't a whole lot to know it by. They want a professional soccer team there... I don't know how likely it is I would get a permanent job in Portland, is the thing. Probably wouldn't be much different than down here... We'll see if I'm even motivated enough to try, heh. Heh. Those gersh dern religious people and their beliefs! Nah, I know you aren't talking about all religious people. You've said in the past that you're christian to some extent, yourself, right? But yeah; people who stop you to talk about religion can be kinda annoying. I tend to stand there and humor them, even though I'm thinking, "I already know all this..." the whole time. One time, these Jehova's Witnesses came to my door, and gave me one of their books. I think I still have it, somewhere. We were listening to Dream Theater for a little while last night. Then we listened to Nightwish for a little while, too. I also put on some TSoL and Vandals. And Relient K... Yay, christian music, heh. Anyhoo... Wuv, Yer Mom
Well, it'd be weird if you stayed up till 6 am alone. O.o" I can't imagine anyone doing that - except, of course, if you're chatting with someone. But all alone... that'd be SO weird. XD Good for you that you went straight to bed. Then I don't have to punish you. Portland... I think I've heard of it before. .-. (*Freya sucks at Geography xD"*) Wow~ Your brother seems to be nice if he even asks you to stay at his place. My sister wouldn't. ^^" She always wants ME to ask if I can stay. <.<" If you get a job in Portland, you should stay there. ^^ I didn't really enjoy drawing. I always liked writing more. x3" And I don't care about losses when it comes to writing. I often get compliments for my writing, or win contests. If I lose some, it's not that bad anymore. x3" I don't know how good/bad your drawing were ten years ago, but I guess you've improved a lot. :3 Hah, fortunately our dog doesn't bark that much. He did, yesterday, when some weird people wanted to talk about the bible with me... xD" But I liked that. I hate those damn religious people who want to convince me that their religion is right. <.<" But I'm too nice ToT I couldn't be impolite to them. .,." Damn, I've got the feeling that I can't write today... sorry .,."
I went to bed right after I wrote you, actually. Almost right after. Some nights, I stay up until 5:30 or 6! (Those nights, I'm usually hanging out with friends, however.) I am a "night owl." Portland is the biggest city in Oregon. Beaverton, which is right next to it, is the city my brother lives in. Unfortunately, there really isn't that much of the way in public transportation between distances like the one between Albany (the town I'm in now) and Portland. I'd pretty much have to drive every day in order to commute back and forth. That would be the gas... My brother has talked about me staying with his family on days that I'd have work, though. If you enjoy doing something, you should just do it. Screw if you're "good at it" or not When I was 13-16, I was a lot worse at it than I am now. But I liked it, so I kept at it. And now... I'm about as good as I am today, heh. Friggen' dog has been barking a lot this morning... I wonder if he's going to become one of those dogs who barks at leaves that fall on the ground. No kids, so he needs to take their place, I suppose. Best wishes to you too, ma'am Anyhoo... Wuv, Yer Mom
Shame on you! >_< When I saw that I had a notification I really wondered who'd write to me NOW. I mean, it's 4 am at your place?! O_o It's 1 pm over here, so I'd never have thought anyone would write to me. xD Normally, nobody's online at this time of the day... Go to bed already, my dear, you need to sleep! >_o So which city is the biggest of your state? (Yeah, I'm quite eager to learn something about Geography again xD) One hour isn't much, if you ask me. oo I also need one hour from my place to university. It's no problem if you know how to get there. ^^ You can easily travel to the city each day. You'll lose some time, but if you decide to take trains, you can at least read whilst the journey. ^^ So you won't have to move. :3 I liked drawing a lot when I was... 13-16. As a fan of Animes/Mangas I especially liked to draw characters I liked. x3" But I wasn't good, really. When I was 15 I started drawing seriously. I wanted to have art classes in school and I had to pass an exam before I could. I failed. So I stopped drawing at all. Unfortunately, when my sister was in Denmark a few weeks ago, she brought me some pencils... and she still mentions that I drew a lot years ago... I think she hasn't noticed that I stopped drawing. xD" I'll send you some pics via PM. xP Sorry, I've never played Star Ocean. .-." I thought about playing it, though, as Fate is a huge fan of the game. I'm still at playing all FFs. So I've no time playing another game. xP And if you're still not in bed.. GO TO BED NOW, DAMN IT! XD
Heh, it's 4 AM, I still haven't gone to bed. I decided to start ripping a bunch of CD's to my computer that I wanted to listen to on my mp3 player. I should go to bed... but I'll talk to you first! ^^ The city my brother lives in is a bit bigger than the city I live in now. There is probably a bit more to do there, and it's close to an even bigger city (the biggest in the state) so it's basically a metropolitan area. I could go to the City via a public transet thingy, probably. It's an hour and a half (or an hour, depending on how you drive) north of here, so I'd have to move totally. I don't know how practical it would be, but I've felt a bit lately like staying here might just be a dead end. I'd also be moving away from all my friends... I am feeling better today, thankee ma'am. It's okay if there's not much to talk about. I will think of questions to ask you, maybe... hm... ...you like drawing? Heh. I draw a lot; like my avatar and my banner. That fox character is actually named "Telegraph." I'm thinking of making it his last name, however, so his first name would be "Todd Telegraph." Violet told me I should do a web comic, which I've been thinking about doing, but I'm lazy. You ever play any of the Star Ocean games? I'm playing the first one for the PSP right now. Didn't play it today, though. But it seems to be the one that is drawing me in the most; I also played half of the second one, and a portion of the third one. On the second one, I got to disk two, and thought, "...wait a second. How long is this game, anyway?!!" And got overwhelmed by the length. The third one, somehow I got to a point where my characters were severely underpowered, and levelling up seemed to be taking forever, so I just got tired of it and played FFXII instead, heh. Hope you're enjoying your day! I think I'll go to bed, now... Anyhoo... Wuv, Yer Mom
Hope you feel better today. >_o What's it like in the city your brother lives in? oo And would you have to move if you went there? I sang my song yesterday, but didn't record it, as my parents were at home. xD" Perhaps I'll find time today. <.<" I have to prepare the birthday present for my father and that really took some time yesterday... like... about 3-4 hours. xD" And still, nothing to tell you about... .-." Sorry sorry~
Yeah, I'm in a foul mood about it myself, as you might imagine, heh. Dunno what I'm going to do next... probably the same thing I was doing before. I don't really blame the guy who got the job, though; I blame my boss. Or maybe I'll move up north to the bigger city that my brother lives in, like I was thinking about doing this past Summer. I probably shouldn't have been caught off guard by this, really. Heh heh, I see. Sorry. I won't mention it again. And I'm not really sure if you ever told me about the crazy girl, really. It seemed like you might have. It's all good if you don't have much to talk about. I'm in a sulky kind of mood right now anyway. Maybe with the newly found freetime, I can get more writing in for my book! Yay. And listen to that Dream Theater song, and sing and record it. I look forward to hearing your song Anyhoo... Wuv, Yer Mom
Firstly... I read your journal. And I hate the world again. -.- Somehow it's always like that. If you work hard, you're just stupid. -.- I can totally understand that you don't want to work as hard as you did. This world's just not fair... And then there're people who don't deserve the job who get it... (I'm not talking about this guy who got your job - it's just that I've heard of a guy who just deserves death imo who got a good job.. -.-") I've never watched Death Note with English dubs, to be honest. xD" I think I only heard the voices when visiting the official website... And that was enough. X.x" How dare you say that Jun Fukuyama wasn't the best L?! You're talking to a fangirl, y'know? XD The crazy woman was the one who... Hmm.. what exactly did I tell you about her? XD" The one I worked with... the one I hated at the end of work. xD" Hm, I never even tried to be friends with my sister's friends... Oo" They're a bit too old and besides, they're HER friends. I couldn't even talk about my sister with them. xD" Mah, I don't know anything else... it's so boring here. T.T" Oh and I didn't forget the song - I just wasn't in the mood yesterday. Perhaps I'll manage to sing something for you today. << >>"
Had my interview this morning. Was pretty nervous, but they told me I did a good job (the principal did, anyway; my boss gave me some suggestions on places where I should've given more detailed descriptions.) I feel good about it, though. I'll let you know tomorrow if I got it or not (they said they'd know by this afternoon.) Got up earlier than normal. Tired... Heh, I liked the english dubbed version of Deathnote. Particularly the guy who voiced L; he did a great job portraying an eccentric individual; better than the original Japanese, even (although I don't speak Japanese, so that may not be a fair assessment. Kinda like how I prefer Cary Elwes as the Baron in The Cat Returns over the Japanese, but then again, Elwes is a great actor with a great voice. He's Westley!) Yeah, if someone acts suspicious, I might keep an eye on them. Like my brother's friends. I'm not always sure when they're being serious or they're just joking around/being weird/giving me crap. It's really hard to judge how I should react, and there's also a large age difference... I've kind of come to the conclusion that I like most of them, but that I'm reluctant to hang out with them (the less crazy ones I could hang with, though.) Which one was the crazy woman, btw? Also, the girl who didn't message you sounds like she was trying to see how you'd react to that, eh? That's how some people try to get to know you; by seeing how you'll react to the crap they pull on you. Inherited genes, eh? Yeah... my whole family got a lot of my dad's stubbornness, haha. Hopefully I inherited enough of my mother's kindness to offset my dad's grumpiness. I know how it is. I remember days sittng around the house, doing nothing. I recall one time in particular when my parents were on vacation, it was a saturday, and I spent the whole day in the house. I was watching TV and playing Pokemon, and I made myself a TV dinner. No human contact the whole day, except maybe a phone call for my mom. You have fun, now, with the animes and such Anyhoo... Wuv, Yer Mom
Hehe, I also own the first volume of Death Note, but I didn't like the dubbed version, that's why I decided not to spend my money on such terrible things. xD" I bought a few volumes of the manga, too, but I watched (and read) most of it on the internet. ^^" So which ending did you like most? The one of the anime or the one of the manga? Personally, I love the manga ending and yesterday, after watching DNR2, I decided that I hated the anime ending. <_<" I completely miss the "I don't want to die!" part of Light. .,. That's what made the series great, in my opinion. Besides, my favorite character was Light. <3 I rooted for him at the beginning, but I always knew that he'd lose in the end. And I didn't like Near and Mello, though I accept them as enemies of Light. xP I don't have your full name, my dear. xP And I don't have a good picture of you, so it wouldn't work anyways. XD Okay, all serious again, now. I also tend to trust someone quite a lot until he/she gives me a reason not to. I can copy that from your text. xP But sometimes, if a person seems strange to me, I don't trust this certain person. Like... when this person says something stra... oh wait, I've got an example for that one. o_o" I had a friend once, a few years ago, who I always trusted and liked and such. Then, a few days after Valentine's Day, she told me that she wrote a short message to everyone on Valentine's Day... except me. She didn't write me and she told me that she didn't. xD" That was the moment I distanced myself from her and I really don't know what that was all about. But such moments can ruin trust in me. xD" Btw. I also trusted the crazy woman at work, until I finally realized that she was lying all the time. ^^" For example, she bullied one of the guys who at first worked with us. She even got our boss to get rid of him. Yet, when I talked to her about that guy, she said that it was only his fault and he's done everything wrong. .-. I then, a few weeks later, talked to another one who witnessed the whole scenario and told me the story from his point of view. I think I even heard the story from another pov after that... and everything concluded into this crazy woman lying to me. O.o"" Haha, I know exactly what you mean. <.<" I also don't want to be like my father. And my dear brother... wait, the REAL dear brother, not the whose ass I kicked yesterday xD... also always says that he doesn't want to be like our father... he's slowly becoming like him. XD" And I suppose I also inherited some of his personality. <.<" I went outside with our dog. ^^ I did quite many things, but it was still boring, having no one to talk to and such. xD" And I wasn't too hard with my brother. I didn't kick his ass either. xD" I just asked him, politely, if he wanted to eat something. xP He wasn't hungry, so I only made myself something to eat..... and while I was at it, my parents came home. xD" So it wasn't that bad anymore. :3" So, now I wanna eat something and watch animes >3~
Yes, I watched Deathnote earlier this year. My friend owned volume 1 on DVD, and I ordered volume 2 online just so I could watch the rest, I liked it so much. And then I was confused about the ending, so I bought the final volume of the manga to see if it could clear anything up for me. Something terrible... I was actually rooting for Light at the end. I didn't like Near or Mello at all. Although I did like the guy with the afro; he was my favorite. Aside from L. I compare work and relationships because I have relationships with my coworkers, and trust them that they are being honest with me. It was an example of how I am in general with people. I'm not saying that it is particularly wise, but that is how I am; I trust someone until he or she gives me a reason not to. Everything you've said to me could be a lie, but if I never meet you, it doesn't really matter; I won't find out. So I can go on believing that you're the cute [insert nationality here] girl I talk to on TFF. If I ever meet you in real life... well, I hope you're telling the truth about yourself, because I am. See, I've found that even if I give out my full name and where I live, no one has come to kill me yet. Hopefully you won't, either Although you do have a deathnote... I will never be like that. My dad is like that, so I will not be like that. Although then again, sometimes when I see kids walking around where they shouldn't be at night, I get really grumpy, because I know kids do stupid crap for no reason, and then I have to clean up after them... and I'm glad you're happy for my team I hope they don't go into a skid, either. Well yeah, I suppose that does sound boring... you should've gone for a walk or something. Or read more of my story Hope you weren't too hard on your brother. Have a nice night! Anyhoo... Wuv, Yer Mom
As you wish, Corporal Punishment. x3 I'll search for the best picture of all of them. I'll probably chose the one in which I'm holding my Death Note. XD Btw. did you ever happen to watch Death Note? I've watched Rewrite 2 (you know.. the special x3") today and I suddenly remembered how great this anime is. <3 I know what you mean. I also tend to do my work as it has to be done, not cheating on anyone. I just sometimes also skip a part that's already clean, or don't clean it as thoroughly as the other parts. I'm too much afraid of doing anything wrong, or rather being found out doing something wrong. xD" Yet, I don't understand why you compare work and relationships. Trusting someone at work is different than trusting someone in a relationship. I wouldn't say we're best buddies, but you're some kind of friend for me - I wouldn't lie to you, but you don't know if I lie to you. Take for example everything we talked about in our PMs. How can I know that you told me the truth? And how can you, for example, say that I'm really from Germany? Maybe I'm living in... erm... Ireland. .-." Or Canada. Or New Zealand. I won't say that I don't trust you, but I'm quite cautious about everything happening on the internet. There've been more than enough cases in which you are tricked by someone. (Of course I won't ever say that you're just a pedophile, there are more than enough reasons why you're NOT. Yet, as long as I haven't met you, I don't really know who you are.) I know what I'm talking about, trust me. .,. I've once met a guy I met on the internet who was completely a different person in real life. He was so nice on the internet, yet a real asshole when I met him.. xD" I admit that he was only one guy... and I've met tons of other people who I only knew from the internet (who were all nice and such x3"), yet this made me cautious. .-." Maybe it's maturity, that wouldn't be that bad. :3 As long as you don't complain about "the damned youth always listening to that hard rock sh*t", everything's alright. xD Btw. Lol@mature album XD Hah, I knew it! ^_^ I'm glad your team won again. After losing so many times, it was about time for them! ^^ Hopefully they won't fall back again. xP Well, a normal day is pretty boring. .-." Today I was alone ALL DAY LONG. My parents went hiking with my sister and her boyfriend... and my "dear" brother doesn't come home. Buuut.. I've heard someone now, so I'll just run now to see if it's finally my brother. (I still have to cook, it's f-ing 8 pm! >_<") ... Okay, it IS indeed my brother. Excuse me, I'll kick his ass now -.-"
Yeah, go ahead and put those pictures up. That would be cool. I think I'm pretty naive, sometimes. I was talking about this with the guy I work with the other night. There have been people we have worked with who have been less than honest about their work; skipping rooms if they "looked clean," going on people's computers to access the internet, getting done early... I kind of just took for granted that these people were doing their jobs when I worked with them, and that they were just fast, but they were found out (at least one was.) So I tend to be trusting. Or sometimes, I know a person is lying, but I just play along anyway. How can you tell when I'm doing which one? Heh, did I give you too much information? Sorry, ha. Sometimes I don't think about these things. It's like, "This bit of information is necessary to tell the story, regardless of how unpleasant it may be." A phase, eh? That I'll grow out of? I dunno if I'll grow out of it. I'm just starting to appreciate different things, I think. Is it maturity? Or is it getting older? You always know a band is too old to rock out anymore when they state they've made their "mature album." Still like my fast, hard music, though. If I'm ever in a band, and I put out "The Mature Album," you will know what that means, ha. So my team won again last night! Yay! They won in a place they hadn't won in for 40 years... And they won fairly decisively, too. So that's good. Well, "normal" can be good, eh? Too much excitement might leave you worn out. Besides, you will be starting something new soon, won't you? (I won't say what it is. I remember, heh.) Have fun doing the "normal" stuff! Anyhoo... Wuv, Yer Mom
