Crazy March 2010

bwah, this month was an absolute constant frenzy of stuff happening! O[]O;; ....gee, that made no grammatical sense...

Well hey guyz owo Today, I have a day off since it's Parent/Teacher Conference so I have some extra time to indulge in finally updating my blog and answering messages! Uu

boy, where should I start? I mean...my god, so much happened / is happening / will happen this month! O[ ]O;; And I want to keep this entry short but I'll just end up failing, I'm sure XDD Oh, I know::

I apologize sincerely for the delays at...everything orz I guess you'll kinda see why once I get started on this entry here, and I know I'm guilty of procrastinating and playing around when I could be a little more productive ;_;Uu I feel so bad, I hope this won't happen again ><; I don't mind being so busy, pero me da mucha pena (I really lament(?)) that it means I'm not being so active online anymore...and I kinda miss it :< I haven't posted anything new on anything in so long..

But yeah, just part of the apology (and mainly for the benefit of everybody including myself) I'll try to keep this very short to explain what's been happening! (Edit: lies. This entry will be long ^^;; However, you can read bold text for title summaries instead ;D) urgh, I wish I can have a "3.5" size font cuz my journal style is already an eyesore for me too =__=;; eh, I'll do something about it later.

First, let me pull out my beaten-up to-do list to explain all my frenzied tweets as of late..

General Hobbies )

  • Guess what, guys. I have next week, Semana Santa lasting for two weeks, one more week, Mock AP Exams, another week, two weeks of AP Exams, and then, I'M DONE. I have 30 days of high school left OwO;;; weh!! Time went by so quickly! XDD ahh it's nutssss, woo, gosh! /done.


      School-related )

    • June 16-ish: Thinking of going to Paris and attend Yasmeen's prom. Still undecided (rather, she doesn't know about it ^^;)


    • Summer: go to annual beach-going w/ family, July unplanned atm, and August is when I go to whatever uni I'll go to in the states. No details yet XD;


    Okaaaay, this entry isn't short anymore o.o;; moving on. >>

    Miscllaneous )

    ANYWAY so today, I'm gonna go to the hairdresser, wash up, go to the party, and probably come home late o.o; Plus, I still have a lot of school work to do (mainly the Spanish Lit hw I've been bitching about all week on Twitter that is now 3 days overdue xDD) so busy busy! -laughs- ahhh but I'm so glad I'm not doing the Science Fair this year, that would've ruined me ;w; SO GLAD. AGH. I WOULDN'T BE STILL ALIVE HERE IF I HAD A SCIENCE FAIR PROJECT DUE NEXT WEEK. NO WAY. >xDDD

    So, in conclusion, I won't be totally hands-free until July owo;;;; wtf man, I've got so much going on!! And even though I love it, it makes me feel bad that I'm sacrificing my online activities because of it D: And I've got so much I want to do...

    ....is this moving on? Am I getting out of my hermit-stage of my life? gee, I thought that was going to be during uni. Or was I already like this since last year?? Ah! O_O Something happened! -laughs- oh well xDD See you guys later~ Sorry for the long entry!

    Ho. ly. CRAP, people. It snowed. Wait. It’s snow ING. Like. CRAZY. MOFO CRAZY. OMG. Out of nowhere!!!

    That’s why I’m using Microsoft Word right now to type out a new blog entry since the Internet’s gone whacko despite the telephone line working :\ It’s a miracle anything’s working at all!!

    Let it snow? really? )

    Today, I’m gonna enjoy my first snow day in six years and do absolutely nothing 8D bye bye~

    lol se me ha quedado esa canción en la cabeza xDD jajaja.

    Unfortunately, bcause it's diffiult to write in Spanish on an iPod that autocorrects (and capitalizes) my words into English words (even though I set it in French wtf) I have to stop wriin in Spanish in order to facilitate blogging despite my desire to Spamish(?) you guys D: yeah, the iPod's great but it means I leave behind a trail of weird typos and autocorrect words behind that makes for awkward online comments and entries!Uu bueno, hope you guys can forgive me..

    Won't say too much since I plan on typing everything I've been discovering every day here on a later blog post but just to state the already much-repeated: South Africa ROCKS!!! I mean, wow, throw away what notions you have of SA here because I'll bet it's wrong! XDD sure, it's hot, but there are nice winds :D the mountains look like Spain's :D The "countryside" look like the ones in Mexico :D and the "rich" boulevards and towns are like America!

    Apartheid was only 15 years ago, but my god have they gotten so over it!! We're astonished by how quicky the blacks have forgiven the whites here and, like Brazil (I guess), they live side-by-side with one another and greet foreigners with open arms ^^ it's so great!! It's truly interesting, fascinating, impressive this country ;w; I mean, I love how the whites here have somehow kept their Dutch accent despite the 300 years-ago British rule (must be the Afrikaans ;D) and how the food is great here, simply because the French immigrants halted British and Dutch gastronomy and taught the South Africans how to cook all this AMAZING FOOD and wine xDDD hahaha, it makes me so happy lol.

    Oh boy, I could rant on! But let me reassure you all that SA isn't at all primitive or unsafe, and in fact it's so much more sophisticated and the living quality seems to be so much better than the ""more experienced"" developed countries ^^; But I digress, I love it here, that's for sure <3 I think it's the weather tbh xD The heat/sunny environment is making me really happy XDD

    I haven't started my hw though 8D;; How can I!! It's freaking summer vacation and NaTuRaL WildeBEESTS TIEM HOW CAN I *[ ]* rawr...I'll just say the lions ate my homework >3>

    Will be headed for Cape Town tomorrow though, and i sunno if I'll have easier/free wi-fi access again owo; I miss you guys, I wish I could share all this with you ;w; I feel kinda lonely...^^;

    ...HOMEWORK. -dashes off-

    Senior Skip Day woot~~

    • Feb. 17th, 2010 at 3:01 PM
    MonElisa
    lol it feels so weird, being at home when I should be at school. I'm so paranoid that they changed the date though; I only heard of this, like, yesterday morning so XD oh well; today I've planned on doing a lot of things done before I go to South Africa :DD yay~~

    Oh yeah, about that o.o I'm leaving on Friday afternoon (the 19th), and coming back on the morning of the 28th (albeit tired XD;). We're not bringing the laptop with us, but where there's Wi-Fi I'll try to twit my current state-of-being when I can ^^ IT'S GONNA BE SO AWESOME!!!! -is flailing like mad- but yeah, so, I'll be very much absent starting Friday so heads up on that ^^ wee~~

    I feel bad that I'll only have two afternoons to freely do my own thing here, but it's not too big of a deal; I'm not hooked into Durarara!! yet and the other series I wanna watch can wait. I can uninstall SAI too and re-install it when I feel like it to avoid expiration (dunno if my version has a limit lol XD hackerfailBD) so yeah...cool..

    Today, I'll work on Bio Notes, memorize the Golondrinas poem, the stupid Math----oh god. You guys. I'm failing HARD at Math. and you know what's worse, though? I understand the concepts, but I'm terrible at figuring out when to USE the damn tools/techniques! so when the teacher explains it to me, I go, "Oh, DUH!!!!! THAT WAY!!! OTL" T____T;;; Especially when that fail page turned out to be a huge waste of 2 hours, lead, and paper since it turned out that I was allowed to integrate with the calculator and I didn't have to show any proofs. FML

    So right now, I'll work on scholarship essays, and make some ringtones for my phone and hopefully be able to share them :D I wanna hunt for good French/Italian/Spanish songs too; I feel like Euro!iPod atm o_o anybody know any good songs? No? Me apetece música Español más que nada ;o; recomendaciones plz?

    And when my dad comes home, I'll read more on South Africa (England was such a conquer-freak, eh! D:) and my Bio teacher's book, which is long overdue XD;;; I wanna read this vacation!! OwO It's gonna be warm!!!! I wanna read by the savannas and the beaches!! weee~~~~

    I feel like every time I go outside, I lose something orz Last week, I lost my FNAC gift card from our Librarian and so I lost 13 Euros ;__; so like, I couldn't get myself an extra item of clothing in my shopping spree cuz I was totally broke orz well hey, at least I bought the OSTs of "Spirted Away" and "Nine" :D Be Italiaaaan~~~

    Oh, and I bought a 10-Euro green jacket that resembled the one China wears for a possible cosplay sometime :DD woot~ I'm growing my hair because of that; it's already gone past my shoulders a bit. I look fugly with this uncertain hair style but I don't want to care.

    ...-sigh- I wonder how I can be so incredibly selfish? I really feel like all I've been doing is thinking about myself, pitying myself, scowling when others get self-conscious so hypocritically u.u;; stupid, stupid..

    I wanna buy a Philips Wake-Up Light alarm clock (since...sound alarms just don't work on me anymore orz ) and a Spanish!Pride!Shirt (boy, I hate the souvenir shopkeepers who keep on stalking you even if you convince them with a thick accent that you can only speak Japanese OTL But there are more "I ♥ Barcelona" shirts than good toro shirts XD) oh, and Inglourious Basterds in normal DVD. Fnac is only selling Blu-Ray right now to promote it DX I didn't feel like going to a different shop to get a normal one so ehh, next time orz

    I also found out what my bra cup is, finally! :D woot~! I came home, wanted to take a nap, but ended up doing serious room-clean up since I was feeling down about the materialistic world and how I was a physical eyesore to the world and it felt so good throwing out old memories~ Some memories don't need material reminders, right? ^^

    And wow, I gathered so many things that I've never used and hence, I can sell at the end of the year :DD holy crap, when I amassed the whole load of things, I had dollar signs in my eyes, seriously xDDDD money whore~~ ahhh, I want to clear out my closet too sometime...even though I've already done that three times the past couple months ._. I have way too many clothes that I keep "just in case" but never use anyway orz See, that's how posession comes about...you feel that someday, it'll come in handy and though it's happened a few times before, really...why keep it anyway? -o-;

    I still have heaps of stuff in my bedroom though ._. I can't imagine how empty my room will look after I go to college...after all, I'm gonna have to nearly completely move out XD; It's likely that the only things I'll leave behind are like, old school files and books? But I'm gonna sell my books too so...yeah, it'll be like an extra bedroom I suppose, with a desk for the guests and everything :b ah, but who knows, I've only managed to choose what I'm gonna sell, not what I'm gonna bring with me after all.

    I'm thinking of using WordPress for the selling, since I'm planning on selling online and locally as well. uf, it's gonna be busy..

    But wow, the things I found...what things I used to say! Goodness, what terrible handwriting! And vocab abuse! -laughs- ughhhh I almost puked seeing how, being obsessed with the British children's writer, Jacqueline Wilson, I used British slang and I mixed it with my newly acquired list of swear words to describe certain people x___x gosh, I was one frustrated/jealous kid...orz I haven't changed at all, eh..

    just got a random blue screen of death o_o;; eh, well. See ya~

    Spanish/Japanese-ness.

    • Feb. 7th, 2010 at 10:46 PM
    MonElisa
    Got a funny story to tell::

    Love Spain. )

    --

    You know what's funny? I'm finding myself more and more slipping kansai-ben in my Japanese speech. And I suddenly remembered how during the time I began to end my phrases in "~de", I had no idea where it was coming from.

    Then, I suddenly, a few days ago, I remembered what my dad told me a year ago before I left for London:

    language arts )

    --

    School has become really pointless for me now. I can hardly motivate myself to do much =_=; I mean...I got accepted, man! Why should I go to school?? orz Senioritis...this is it, people..

    Musical Delight! :D

    Guess what~? I got accepted to Purdue University!! woot!! :D hahaha, the acceptances are like, coming from East to West XDD If this keeps up, next one should come from Duke in North Carolina ;D -kidding- ...where the heck is Indiana anyway? XDDD -shot-

    An American is terrible at world geography, but at least knows his country. A European is decent at world geography, but doesn't know all fifty states of America 8D America can be proud about that! XD

    I'm sure I'm getting all the good luck from Russia love♥♥ ::



    Yuria drew him for me on a New Year's postcard♥♥ He's saying, "Are you doing your best for your Finals?" ♥♥♥♥♥ Isn't he adorable??? >W< It motivated me a lot during the study week~~~ Although...the exams didn't go as well as I hoped D: Oh well, I got into college so nyah Xb -flails about- ~~~~

    HS Temporary Band? )

    I GOT INTO COLLEGE!!!!!

    • Jan. 30th, 2010 at 7:11 PM
    MonElisa
    oh my god, I'm crying so hard I almost can't type!!! I GOT IN!!!! I'M GOING TO COLLEGE!!!!! OMG!!!! -bawls-

    wowwww, I didn't know it was going to feel this way!!! Holy shit!!! I got accepted!! I'm in college!!! I'm going to America!!!!!! I I got accepted to the University of Maryland, which is among the good ones I applied to!! :DDD It's close to DC!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!

    -wipes tears- holy crap, my whole family congratulated me (even my brother's friends, who came over XDDDDD) and...wow, my dad cried, he CRIED!! He even said, "I guess I shouldn't have been so worried!" dad, I was worried too XDDDD waaaah, we're all a crying love fest XDDDDD waah, this is incredible...

    wait 'til I get rejection letters xDDDD Well, but with this...!!!!! I can't believe it...I'm going to the states...I really really am.. -bawls- holy shit, I'm talking like some European immigrant from the 19th century xDDDDDDDDDD I'M GOING TO AMERICA, BITCHES!!! 8DDD -laughs and cries at the same time-

    All this time of going through depressions and working hard...I...oh lord..

    We were watching "La Vita É Bella" when we get a phone call so we pause the movie. So I open my iTouch and see my e-mail...and lo and behold!! I severely distracted my dad from the phone call lmao XDD I'm in the kitchen now, using the laptop, and we're so shocked that my dad's like, losing his balance and he's drinking his water xDDDD looooool.

    I'm going to America!!

    I am a plaything of Time.

    similar quote taken from Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad.

    Warning: Fucking depression again, please ignore this.

    sucks )

    As if my problems weren't bad enough, my iPod wouldn't sync my photos so I'm restoring it for the 5th time now to fix the problem. And it's taking forever orz My iPod's gonna die soon, I just know it..

    I'm curious about the new iPad, does it act like a normal tablet computer? It looks huge though...but I'm still curious ._.

    ..okay fine, I'll admit it: I'm dreaming of my imaginary computer again orz I'm starting to hate the word 'computer' because it sounds so thick and ugly; much like my thirsty greed for it =__= It's a perfectly healthy motive to not let me have my own laptop. But I can't stop thinking about its convenience as I struggle with my LQ Wi-Fi from my iTouch..

    I really am selfish, and so unappreciative, ugh...

    ending my rant here, I hope none of you actually read this u_u;;

    I want icons..

    • Jan. 23rd, 2010 at 10:33 PM
    Other: WTF
    I never cared for having my own icons/avatars since I always thought, "Well, I change my mind so often that...what's the point? It's just gonna waste my time every time I change my icon -o- " but now...well...I'm sick of my icon, seriously, it's like super imposing orz I like how small it looks on deviantArt, but it looks fugly here on LJ ._.

    Thus I scavenge my icons folder and find all this random shit I saved from back in 8th grade when I was obsessed with FMA and I still used MSN Messenger xDDD ahh...I want other icons too :< But I can't be bothered to go find some...but...I really really want Russia ones T___T and Manga-DGM ones too..

    sorry for the cucumber-dildo(?)-horse...

    it's a pony.

    Gone for the weekend.

    • Jan. 15th, 2010 at 10:54 PM
    MonElisa
    Dear Janet and all my other dear friends,

    and to myself,

    This weekend, I will thoroughly dedicate all 48 hours of rest to study hard for my upcoming exams next week, and to figure things out for the code-named "English Issue" that has taken a big turn today (of all days). That's why, I will abstain myself from checking e-mails and messages, and will not allow myself to even leave a single evidence of online activity until Friday, next week (assuming I'll be able to control myself). So when I don't reply to your messages or make comments on new updates, please be patient and understand my situation until then.

    These scores will enter the Mid-Year Report that my applied-to colleges will see that could affect my acceptance into my dream colleges. I'm a bundle of anxiety, and I have to face 4 months worth of AP Biology knowledge to ace the test. And I need to ace the AP Calculus test. yeahno, really.

    So I won't make a show of myself for an entire week (unlikely) so I'll see you 'til then! Love you~~

    Have a good week!

    With the music, it's no longer the tone of this entry is like a final, important goodbye xDDDD

    wish me luck!!

    I sincerely apologize for the short notice, I completely fell off my time schedule and now I'm a little dizzy ._. Okay, very briefly:

    Saturday: Went to a reunion of the Heta-Day guys and spent a long day playing Kiku because I lost my ability to speak and understand Spanish all of a sudden that day orz Lamento muchísimo que no he dicho casi nada durante todo eso ;__; una pena malísima orz espero que no se pasa otra vez!!

    Sunday: Home Party. 26 guests. 9 children. DEATH. Finished "The Lost Symbol" = mind-blowing, could not put it down. School = no more books unitl next break. fml.

    Monday: First Day of School (all of a sudden??). Came close to hypothermia. Fucking school. Exams next week. College interviews this week. Senior trip w00t w00t? Hopefully.

    Elisa > busy (is here sitting in the bathroom trying not to get caught with iTouchUu) Elisa can't be NEET. Elisa need study. Elisa hiatus. Elisa bye-bye hasta next Friday. Expect delayed replies o.ó

    Ciao~

    MonElisa
    Apparently, Kuroshitsuji was adapted into a theatral production!!!!



    thx to [info]kestra_chan! :D

    Doesn't it look so utterly awesome??? It was done so professionally too!! I didn't think they would make something like this and take it so seriously :D Usually, these kinds of things come out crappy, but this one looks so cool!! The BGM promises everything! The lights are well done! The choreography!! -drools-

    But most of all, the costumes *W* It looks so awesome. I think I wanna get the DVD XDD Or should I just watch it online and get it over with? But I feel like having it...then again...I'm not that into Kuro anyway? Watching it once may just be enough? What's the point, really XD; ehh, whatever, when I find the time I guess~

    --

    Boy...I only have like 5 days until school ;____; by which I should go on another hiatus to study for exams the following week....arghhh I'm so scared orz Bio is gonna kill me...I tried to study this vacation but I only managed to study Unit 1 and there's, like, 9 T__T;;; SCREWED OTL wah...

    Update: I finally got myself a Pixiv account just for the hell of it if anyone's interested : http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=1539428
