TWO WEEKS OF NO POSTAGE!





*thinks of stuff to say*





last LAST Sunday, BBQ @ the fish's place. It being a social gathering and as a farewell party for Daniel who's leaving to somewhere which we asked about but I didn't remember hearing the answer. I helped the fish with the preperations before the party started at 4 (hosing the chairs and the porch was teh fun :E)... people slowly started coming, and I wandered off to play Sim Tower that I wasn't able to install successfully on my computer (had the sudden urge for it one night so we both installed it -- my attempt being a failure)... Eleanor showed us her photo album as she told her story about her two week trip to Japan. She got to do voice acting :O!! Anywho, didn't get to play MJ cuz the other people hogged it up. Played some racing game on PS2; beat Eleanor a few bwahaha... nice cars tho.





AE was a little under two weeks away when Sty and I decided to make a last-minute costume for the cosplay for Anime Evo 03. Bought the fabric (FABRICLAND MUST GO TO HELL) and began that Monday. Did plans, slacked off much, got "stressed like frick". Day by day, we woke up earlier and earlier to meet up and work to try and finish the costume. Monday: 4pm; Tuesday: 10am; Wednesday: 10am; Thursday: 9am; Friday: 7:30am; Saturday: 6am (supposedly 4am but no buses came until 6)... ending the day around at 10pm everyday. We planned to finish that Saturday morning, but Sacha collapsed because of over exhaustion in the morning, so we didn't go at all. Sadly I finished my costume (with a few problems here and there that I temporarily fixed with some pins just for the day. Sunday was the worst day of course, but since we worked so hard all week, I didn't want to put it to waste. Saboo felt sick that morning so she didn't go, leaving Sty, tzen and myself to go ourselves. Hee, scared lots of people on the bus and skytrain with my wicked pink hair (btw I was Lacus from Gundam Seed -- no pictures to show yet :p) that turned out sorta shitty because we didn't exactly finish combing it so it looked big and puffy. We met some "otaku" at the bus stop after the skytrain and followed us everywhere cuz he noticed my cosplay and knew we were going... he talked a lot. We arrived at SFU and was bombarded by rabid Lacus fangirls (where's the hot fanguys? :p) and then headed off to the Stargate SG-1 panel that Sty wanted to go and see. I had no interest in it whatsoever, considering I've only seen less than 2 mins of one of the eps and found it really corny. Sty won a free hat at the panel and bragged about it all day. We headed off to the dealers room right after, following a couple (which I swear looks like brother and sister -- but they said they were a couple in the AE forums) cosplaying as characters from Lunar 2. We journeyed across the SFU crazy valleys, huffing and puffing at the sight of stairs and from the sun. We got there, the dealers room was stuffy and crowded; no fun. Nothing looked interesting so we glanced at everything quickly. I wanted to waste money but there was nothing to waste it on. We bumped into tzen and went off to meet frector at one of the video rooms. The first 10 mins or so was a free-for-all talk forum about anime people wanted to see next year.. some really funny suggestions: this particular boy in the back suggested Dragon Ball Z, Yu-Gi-Oh and Yuu Yuu Hakusho .. funny. They finally found the Excel Saga DVD that they were stalling time for, got through the first DVD and then moved onto Noir. Watched the first ep and left. We were once again attacked by rabid fangirls, this particular group somewhat cosplaying as Gundam Seed too (too cool too cool!!). I honestly didn't expect anyone to cosplay as Gundam Seed at all. So there was this Cagalli and younger version Athrun (not older, BOO!) but cute anyways. Tzen took the mini group photo... I want it. :E After that we went to bother Nina who was sleeping at the art tables, selling her artwork. Sty pursuaded her to follow us home and buy ice cream cake, and so she came. We arrived at the Victoria Dairy Queen and spotted a v. good ice cream cake with a naked muscular guy flexing as the icing, so we got that. Brought it back, partially melted and we all ate some; sweet as hell. Had some shake n bake chicken and hash browns for dinner at Sty's place and got going. Did I mention my skirt was crooked the whole day making it seem like I wasn't standing straight for the pose for the camera? :p Oh well, overall: total suckage weekend of unnecessary stress.

Whooaaaa super slackage.





No idea what happened two weeks ago so I can't talk about it. Summer's going by quite quickly... Finally started driving lessons Thursday. First day, we went straight to the freeway and down to Richmond. I was surprised, shocked, freaking out, afraid -- everything... Never driven before and he wanted me to take the freeway taking the Knight Street bridge toooo... Had to work on big street turning mainly.





Friday: Tony's b-day. Strange day, imo. Fish picked me up and we went to his house. They couldn't get the sewing machine working the day before so I decided to help out. I got father than they did in a lesser amount of time that they spent but it still couldn't get working. After an hour of boring machine poking, we decided to go straight to handsewing instead. Amy already started, sewing strange lil beads and such on the thong. Oh did I mention that's our birthday present for Tony? Apparently it is. Tony came a bit later, and we continued to work. Fish went to pick up the rest of the people while Amy and I kept working. We were sewing a giant fuzzy heart at the front of the thong when Amy suggested it looked like a pocket. Then the bigger picture appeared -- MONEY POCKET! I told her to go find some monopoly money and photocopy a few. I finished the sewing and stuck the money in. OHohoho, good stuff. The other people came, we left towards Richmond and met Tony at Parker. Took sticker pictures and then got going to South Arm park. They started swimming, Tony Fish and I didn't. We played a few games of MJ and Big2, drinking pop, eating sausage-pinapple on a toothpick and chips. Then Fish finally went to join them. Time passed by quickly... it was 7 and we had to go pick up the cake all the way in Kerrisdale. The bigger half went to pick up the cake and met the others at Sushi King. Had a crazy sushi meal, had the crazy strawberry-chocolate cake and popped open the frightening present. We sang the Happy Birthday song outside of the restaurant -- both Eng and Chinese and then got going to Ray's party. Was a mess of random people. Some were playing MJ, some were karaoke-ing, some playing PS2 soccer and others sitting around, drinking and eating -- wasn't too appealing. Did I mention I don't like Brenda?... maybe's its her voice or something... its quite irritating to the ears. She was everywhere around Amy not that I'd care, but you can hear her. I took a bite out of the cake and pudding and then we got going. Thank goodness we left early.. or at least earlier...





More driving Saturday. It started raining dogs and cats outside. Worried me much much. Went to Richmond again, rain died down a bit.. did much better on the turning. Now I need to practise on my head turning... KILL ALL 'EM BIKERS. -- and parking... Did I also mention my driving test is scheduled to be August 8th?... I'm so dead you know?? YOU KNOW?? One month.. NOT EVEN. Fff...





I'm determined to finish our costume for AE. We went to check out the fabric and the prices earlier this month. Anything is better than being yourself there at the con, I swear. But we've got only a week to finish it... psh, no sweat... for people with no experience huh.





I've also been wasting all my valuable time playing PC Phantasy Star Online. Which explains my lack of updates on everything. Find me -- Sayoko the FOmarl, harharhar... lvl 26 I think. NO HACKS GO ME >:E... Can't stand being with the other cheating foos tho... using crazy weapons and/or being at lvl200 (obviously you're cheating, stupid). The majority of the characters being at lvl200. Meh. Hectic month... Did I mention I haven't gotten my monthly dose of Newtype yet?... the last time I went (with Jicky), they didn't have it yet. UGH new Fruits Basket and DNAngel.... *rolls around*

Canada Day celebration woohoooO~ The fireworks downtown were apparently cancelled, so we looked elsewhere for some festivities. I woke up at 4pm (missed breakfast and forgot to call Fish... made him mad :E but he woke up the same time I did anyways, pfft)... Der asked me to go to some whitewash clothing store sale all the way in Kerrisdale. Pfft that. ...had McDix and then a few hours later, went to have KOREAN! with family. Good stuff, good stuff. Afterwards, with Fish, Amy, Jo, Jon Mak n Tony made our way to Garry Point in Richmond. Simon and Daniel went in another car as Tim Sham & gang were in their own minivan. We had a strange conversation in the car about buying bras and g-strings for Tony C. and Ray's birthday. Hmm, I think we'll be doing the shopping this weekend.. :E~ We were already running late when we got there, taking us a good half hour to find parking. Took us as long to walk to the beach to find that it already started. We ripped out our garbage bags and found a place; first behind a fat lady that was standing up, then we moved to a pot area. Whatever, lasted only 20 mins and it was pretty damn crappy. We ran like mad back to the car to find it TP-ed by Sham's crew. Took us more than a half an hour to get out of the area back to Vancouver. We were high all the way back, flashing each other with filmless cameras, screaming out the window at random people, and even more random conversation. I suggested bubble tea SO WE DID! We went all the way back to Bubble World, Granville. Played some erotic photo hunt XD... and made it back an hour after midnight. :D





Now that school's out of the way (for now), I'm getting into the updating hype... New guestbook layout, .hackers update (finally after 2 months :E) and in the middle of a blueprints layout frustration... more to come? Maybe... O_o





WE WON 2010 NO!!!! SCREW OLYMPICS >_>... more sufferage with family tax and shit. :p Even though it doesn't affect me directly.. BUT INDIRECTLY NO!!! NOO! NO!NONONONO!! That'll be all. =_=

FUCK!





I'll do it again... with even less detail as before.





FUCKING MATH. After all that practice it was useless. The questions that appeared were completely different from the other years. Geo practice at Fish's place the day after with Amy. Went through an exam together. Unexpected written answers like "Human psychological effects..." Tony calls Sunday to play MJ at Simon's. Surprisingly I won the most. Tony lost $2000 to me. Which explained the huge money gap. Teacher didn't show up on Monday for Bio prep. Sat around in councellor's office for an hour and a half for Mo2. She didn't show up after all so I left. More Geo prep Tues. Did our own separate papers of the same exam. I got the highest, strangely. Doesn't explain why this strange luck is also giving me a high score in Bejeweled. Once again more preposterous written answers that just blew us away. The Geo exam was easy anyways, maybe cuz of the practice. Dimsum after at the restaurant across from Yaohan. Had crap shrimp balls. Got home for self Bio prep. Ended up insufficient. Bio was difficult and frustrating. Finally went to challenge our grades for Annual afterwards. Had a talk with the fagface. He looked even more obese and ugly the last time we saw him. Threw his bs at us. Went to Campbell, knew she wouldn't help. She called us at 10 in the morning to explain she was on the teacher's side, disapproving our challenge. Didn't even give us the chance to give our own opinion. Irritated all morning we made an appointment with the principal. Due to a meeting that went longer than expected, it was postponed to the week after. Charlie's Angels later that night with crap DDR in sandals. Funny good movie with annoying bike scene. Refilled on popcorn and drove Amy home. Had fun in front her house while she mourned about various things. Needed pool. Played 5 games, Fish won 2, Jo won 1 and I won two. Need more pool. Addicted. Pool > MJ > Bejeweled. Still full from popcorn and coke, Fish and I went to all you can eat sushi at Richmond Tokyo Ichiban. Slow moving service, funny conversations and queer neighbours. Relatives suddenly called for more Japanese food the day after. Hestitated to go but did anyways, just to please poor grandpa who just wants a little attention that no one wants to give him. (calls in the middle of the day and expects you to talk with him or go out... in the bad way). MJ in the afternoon the day after -- with two tables. Played a whole game (4 rounds)... The top two winners of both tables play while the left overs play another. Feasted on two big bags of lays, lukewarm apple juice and cookies... Crap BBQ at relatives' place afterwards that only gave me stomach pains. Today, the most painful possible dental cleaning ever experienced. Changed dentistries for various reasons... There was a tv you could watch. But it's useless when the noise is being muffled completely by the sound of the dental tools drilling into your teeth, her hand over your face and the aching pain of the weaponry stabbing at your gums. She made me bleed lots and I was disabled of any mouth movement for a few hours. I was even sore when I was eating dinner which was hours and hours later. Crazy woman.





Yearned for bubble tea all week. Still no bubble tea.





So condensed now.
