This and all the other junk

So, here's a small of update of what's been going on lately, plus a side story of what happened yesterday:

- School starts next week for me. I'm happy that it's finally starting up again, but at the same time, who wants to go to school? XD

The classes I'm taking this term are:

GEOL 101: Intro to Geology *I needed a science class and this was pretty much it :/*

PE 180: Lifetime wellness *Elective credit*

JAPN 221: Japanese 4 *Trying to raise my GPA XD*


Nothing too great or special. :/

- As far as work goes, I kind of got my wish of moving to a different dept. I'm still technically a cashier, but now I work at the service desk. It's a little better, but it still sucks b/c I'm essentially the only one in the store, at times, that knows what to do there. It really sucks when it comes to getting my breaks and lunches on time. :/



Now that we have that out of the way, here's a little story about what happened yesterday:

So, I woke up around 1pm and started gaming around 2 *b/c it's my day off and I have nothing better to do XD* This is pretty much what I've been doing the whole day, so I had no intention of going out. Around 8pm, I got a call from my classmates *I call them that b/c that's exactly what they are; nothing more, nothing less* asking if I wanted to go with them to the beach. I must have been really bored b/c for some reason, I actually agreed. They wanted to meet up around 3am so we could make it to the coast. *From where I am, it's actually pretty damn far to get to the coast + they wanted to see the sunrise ><*

First, I had to drive out my way for an hour to pick them up b/c they couldn't drive. Then, we got lost on the back roads of Olympia. When we finally got on the highway, we had been driving for about 2 hrs already. Driving to the coast took almost 3 hours. There were so many country roads that I seriously thought I was going the wrong way half the time. And don't get me wrong, I like WA's scenery, but when you drive through it once, you've basically seen it all. That's pretty much how I felt as I tried my best not to find a way to kill myself while figuring out where the hell I was going. After many hours, we finally got to the coast. However...

... yeah. That's what WA's beaches basically look like. I really shouldn't have been surprised, but it just felt that this was not worth the 3+ hour drive to get there. It was rainy, cold, foggy and pointless. I was seriously at a loss of words. I was so pissed off, but I felt like I deserved it b/c I just had a feeling that something like this would happen. We stayed there for a total of 20 minutes before I threatened to leave them stranded there.

Then, it was another 3+ hours to get back. In total, I left my house at 4am and came back at 11am. It didn't end there though. I tried to sleep, but could only manage to get 2 hrs. ><

So... I've been awake, essentially for the past 2 days on only 2 hours of sleep...

Just a reminder that something like this is not going to happen again........................soon.

Well, I'm going to try and crash for a little while, so until next time.

来ておるのですが
なんだかアタクシの以前のバンドの
CD?がまた出るそうですね

えーと
まったく知らないんですけど・・・
他のメンバーさん達は知ってるのかしら?

商売上の理由とか
ま いろんな世の常って
やつではございましょうが
せめて一声かけて欲しかったすな
過去とは言え
自分達の作品であり血肉ですから
やっぱりなんか憤りーで
悲しいっす

てな訳で

あしからず。



Basically what the post says is that Eiji and the other members from both his bands *Codomo A and Kibouya Honpo* were unaware that UNDERCODE is re-releasing a "best of" album of the bands. Some may not find this a problem, but it is. It means you're supporting the label they use to be under and not the bands or members. I suppose if you were a die hard fan of UNDERCODE, then it would be acceptable to purchase this, but for me, my money will go else where...








...The new アジカン singles and album that are coming out. Have you preordered them yet? WELL?! HAVE YOU?!?!?! XD

毎日毎日の憂鬱

L
*For those who understand this reference, we all know who the true victor is... ;D*

Well, this is not a picture post. *I'm saving that for Saturday so stay tuned!* Rather, it's just a small update post. *I promise, its not that long.*

I haven't been doing much online because of two things: Work and getting back into gaming.

Work- For the past 2 weeks, I have been working the steady Mon.-Fri. 2pm-10:30 shift. It... sucks... Not because of my time, but b/c I'm always closing at Returns. >< However, after my 4 day weekend *yes, they've decided to finally cut my hours again* I'll be working in a few different places. Still... I work the closing shift... *deep sigh*

Gaming- When I'm not at work, this is what I'm doing. Ever since I started getting back into gaming, it feels like that's what's been taking up most of my time. Hell.... what else is there to do here? I think that this will take up a huge chunk of my "mini holiday".

Anything else that's new with me? No. Simplest answer. Nothing new really. Same old suck as usual. Oh.... OH! There was one thing new.

I bought SPACED the series on DVD finally! Ever since I saw the commercial that they were finally importing it to the US, I had been waiting for it. I think I've watched it numerous times now. XD If you haven't seen it yet, you must! It's that awesome. I think there are still some clips on youtube...

Until next time *most likely Saturday*, Later.

Ok.... Ok.

Garbage Pit


Well, I've finally finished. I have updated all of my Japan trip entries.

That's right, people; I finally added the pictures. However, that means, you'll have to dig through the entries if you want to see them.

Have fun with that.

I have many more pics to post, but I've decided to put them in another upcoming entry. It took me 3 hours to do the revamp, so don't expect more pics for another few days.

So, enjoy and until then...

So, what the hell are you waiting for people?! Get out there and enjoy this movie!!!

将来の兆し

Start this post off with some really weird things I've been noticing since I've come back to WA.

- I was driving the other day and I saw, for the first time ever, a Carl's Jr. in WA. It freaked me out a little bit, since there was one other place I had seen it...

- When I got to my destination that same day, I walked by a car that had a license plate holder for In-and-Out Burger. Hmmmm.....

- This morning, I rode the ferry with a friend b/c he had to go to some training in Bremerton. The ride was eerily familiar to something else I had done in the past...

- As I was driving home, I came across a toll booth, which was a first for me actually. Sorry for saying this, but I had no idea that there were toll booths here. XD I took pics while driving XDD But that also reminded me of something that happened earlier this summer during my trip.

I'm not sure about you, but these things are seriously connected and it kind of freaks me out. I sign, perhaps.... but for what.....?

The Story So Far

It's been about 5 days since I've been back and it's been really lame as I expected.

The day after I got back was spent cleaning and organizing all my stuff. There's so much crap now, I have no idea where to put all of it XD The other part of the day was trying to keep my mind off how depressingly boring my day was, along with the thoughts of work the next day.

On Wed., I had work for the first time in over a month. However, it was a busy day. It was also an 8 hour day. Plus, it was a Returns Day. I was not thrilled. I work Returns all this week and next. Not fun at all. The only plus side is that I have a lot of hours, which means a really nice paycheck. Still...

Thurs., was equally busy. I met up with 2 of my classmates before work to talk and give them some of the stuff I had bought for them. I was supposed to mail out a textbook, but now it seems like I'll have to wait till Sat. or Mon. before I can do it :/

I'm considering moving to another department, so I retain some sanity at this job. I also found out that I was up for the Head Cashier position, but I was taken off b/c I was gone for the month. X### Kind of sucks. Maybe I'll try for another position. If not, then I'll just bail. I still have till the end of the year to figure it out. It's going to be a long busy few months ahead of me. At least there's still time though. Maybe I can put it off till later. XDD

One more thing, since I've been really busy with work, I haven't been able to put up the pictures, so I will try to do that later today after work, or next week, when I have a day off. おまたせしました.

最後の日...

So, the day has finally come. I will be returning to WA in a few hours. I'm excited, but really sad. It's been an awesome few days here in CA, as it always is when I come to visit. Going to miss being around actual friends and not just co-workers and classmates. XP

I'll be going back to work on Wed, so I'll have some time to rest tonight and tomorrow. *not looking forward to it after hearing about all the changes that have occurred ><* I think I'm going to start my job hunt when I get back.

The summer will feel so long now, since I'm going back to doing nothing again :/ All I have to look forward to is school and work, and the latter half isn't in session right now...

I'll be graduating in the Spring of next year as well, so that will really give me free-time till I move onto another school. I haven't figured out where I'm going to transfer to just yet, but I think I might have somewhat of an idea of where I want to go now...

We'll just see where this road will take me...
