Christmas

Well christmas has finally arrived, thank god the crazy shoppers will turn back into regular shoppers and the new years is upon us. Hopefully everyone had a safe and happy holiday season, and got everything they wanted.

At least this christmas isnt as depressing as last. I feel a bit cheerful and happy enough to do a Christmas clean up which the house needed. So to bring the new years into the home with good cheerfulness. Merry Christmas and happy new years.

In the Dark

So I decided that since I have nothing else to do since the electric went out, I will write a short blog. At least I have my phone and is semi connected. The only source of light that I have is one giant candle and a lil free Sony flashlight.

It is Christmas almost! Wow this year went fast. I hope for our sakes that we will do better next year! But this year is not one with regrets, I can say that this year isn't all that bad.

I guess I better log off already must conserve what little energy I have left on my phone I don't think I can go the whole night on 19% and draining.

Connected

So it's been a couple of weeks since I have moved and FINALLY I have internet back. I know that I could survive without it if had to, but someone else that lives with me can't. But all I can say is thank god. I would never thought that it would be such long weeks without internet. The only thing that I can really say was a good thing about not having internet is that I actually go to sleep at night instead of staying up and reading drama's or manga. I will have to admit that I am addicted to being connected. . .

So since I got online I thought that I would celebrate by writing a blog since I rarely write anything at all. School is now in session and its semi kicking my ass. I say semi because I am reading my book, but since I couldn't access the internet I couldn't do my homework. My homework assignments and quizzes are online and those I can't access from my phone or work, since I work in a government establishment accessing email is blocked, and since I'm either at school in class or waiting for the bus to head to work after class there was never a time to use the schools computer. But I am up and running, running for what I have no clue, but I will get somewhere.

Since I am starting photography maybe I will post some picture's I take. Though recently I found out that I don't think that I have the eye to take pictures. We will see in later developments what I can produce. First hour back online and it doesn't feel like anything is missing anymore. So hello brave world hello. I know I am weird but its OK only I read my blogs. LOL 

Work in progress

So it's been a couple of months since I last wrote anything I don't think that anyone actually misses anything that I write. It's been a long 2 months. Finally we are going to be moving into a new place, hopefully it works out. Cause after this I have no idea what to do next.

Ok so I started this post like a could of weeks ago and never continued it. Here I a weeks later with the same post. School is finally Yeah, say it like it's a good thing, it will make it seem fun. Actually so far my instructors seem to be very chirpy, I don't know if that is good or bad. But it does make the lecture seem very enjoyable so far.

Summer Ramblings

Finally school is out for summer, I can concentrate on working and saving money for a deposit when we move. Hopefully we will be able to save. If only money grew on trees and all I had to do is go out to the yard and shake my money tree *sob* if only it was that easy. Any who I haven't written anything in the last month or so, its not like I write words of wisdom or write anything remotely spectacular. But even so I will trek on, hehe even with my made up words someday I will have my own dictionary so people can see into the mind of a weirdo. Lol . . . I am not a freak I'm normal! I tell you normal!

So lately I've been watching Korean/Taiwanese/Japanese dramas lately, I have been finding a lot of the stories to be very interesting. For Korean Drama I just started watching Lie To Me starring Yoon Eun Hye. Description: Gong Ah Jung (played by Yoon Eun Hye) gets entangled in a web of deceit after lying that she's married to Hyun Gi Jun, a nobel hotel manager from an affluent family. Complication arises when Gi Jun's ex fiancee and a close friend of his brother reappears in his life. From the few episodes that I have saw I find it funny, I really like Yoon Eun Hye's character I feel really sorry for her.

For Taiwanese Drama I have been watching Drunken to Love you Starring Rainie Yang. Basically its a spin off of Fated to Love You. All I can say is that I really enjoy this story, its romantic and funny. I'm not much of a sharing my thoughts kinda person at least writing reviews.

Woes of being old?

I think that next year I will take a break from art classes. I don't think that I have the patience anymore. I think that being in this painting class is really testing my tolerance. I don't know how many people like being interrupted constantly in class while trying to concentrate. My classmates like bringing their friends into class, usually I don't mind but these people don't sit in the corner like other visitors, they go around class talking to other people, and they play around shooting the water bottles at each other. 

Then you go some their friends that would like to be productive and paint what we are painting, the problem is that the class is so big that when we gather around a still life there is no room to move around and get good points of view, then you throw another person in the mix and you got no room. Oh my god and there is another guy in my class that likes to bang his goddamn brush against his container, annoying little fuk. Maybe I am just getting old cause everything is starting to annoy me. I have no idea where I am going with schooling but all I know is that I am headed somewhere.

NiKKO's Day Out

We went across town to get this, but we ultimately didn't get it and I was mad...

Today was one of the few days that I ventured out of the house, mostly because I had a mission. My boyfriend and I have been wanting to play Tales of Vesperia for quite a while and the only GameStop on the island near us that supposedly had it in stock was in Kapahulu. So today we got on the bus and headed for Kapahulu, and let me tell you traffic was hell today, it took forever to get through Waikiki. Damn all those road constructions.

But finally we made it to Gamestop, I saw the case on the shelf I was so happy they still had it. I even remembered my $10 off used games coupon, and I usually forget everything at home. Which is why I was super happy, because I would be getting what I wanted for cheaper! So I got up to the counter and waited for the dood to find my game. All I could think about was how it was mine, all MINE! I did not travel all this way for nothing. . .

However, that feeling of absolute bliss was to be extremely short lived as I learn that I had, in fact, apparently travel all that fricken way for nothing and I am just floored as I listen to the dood tell me that despite the case being there, Tales of Vesperia was awol. How can a game just get up and walk away? Who knew games could even do that? And more importantly, why the hell would you put it up on the web site as available and even go as far as having the case on the shelf, only to NOT be able to find the fricken game!!!! They are just as stupid as Walmart!

Those bastards put a bunch of K-drama cases on the shelf and they didn't even have it in stock, I could see if it was one case, but no they had at least five cases on the shelf. Okay so maybe they aren't as stupid as Walmart, but this isn't the first time they did this to me, its been a couple of times.

Tips For Better Living! Volume 2

Look Younger

- Take care of your hands. Slather them with SPF 30. Put it on your arms and face too.

- After brushing your teeth gently brush your lips in a circular motion. Be sure to apply cream.

- Try bangs, a flattering layering around the face is more youthful.

- Use cream blush. It goes on smoother and “no more clown cheeks.”

- Pencil your eyebrows in with a slightly darker pencil if they are sparse.

De-Clutter

- How long should you let magazines, newspapers, outgrown kids clothes clutter up your house? Decide how long you want to keep it and when you reach that point, recycle, donate, or toss.

- Define a room’s purpose and don’t let foreign objects creep in. If your bedroom isn’t the official laundry room, move all laundry related items, including laundry baskets out.

- De-clutter often. When you first notice clutter, remove it and put it in its rightful place.

- Don’t buy containers until you clean and sort everything out. You will want to buy the right sized container and you don’t want to wind up with more containers than you need. Often times you find you don’t need any at all and they contribute to the clutter.

- Keep your counters neat and clean at all times. Messy counters are psychologically draining and make preparing a meal more difficult.

Kitchen Help

- Stock up on broth or make your own by cleaning and cooking the leaves and ends of fresh vegetables. Use it for cooking noodles, spaghetti, rice, macaroni, and as a base for soups or gravy. It will add more nutrition to your food and will taste delicious. It will also save you money.

- With a box of cake mix, cream cheese, and confectioner’s sugar you will always have a desert that is quick and easy to make for any emergency. Just follow instructions on the cake mix, mix your topping of confectioners sugar and a little milk, mix in the cream cheese. Put the icing on the cake and there you have it.

- Whatever you do, do not buy bottled water. Water that comes from the tap is as good if not better and you pay for it anyway.

TV Interest

So since I have been sick these last few weeks I have been watching Mythbusters on Netflix, I am thoroughly entertained by it. I think that what they build through out the show is really interesting. Not only what they build and what kind of myths, but also the explosions. Explosions are really cool, it always seems like they blow things up just because they can. This seems like one of the few show that will hold my attention.

The other show that I have watch, marathon style is man v.s food. I know its just one man eating a ridiculous amount of food, but I find the random places that he goes to seem pretty cool. For one I live on an island, and two we don't have a lot of sandwich/ BBQ places here on the island so makes me want to go on a food tour.

I haven't gotten into American drama shows in a long time, I think I have fully immersed my self into watching K-Dramas/Anime/ and reading Manga and Asian pop news that I have pulled away from American shows and music. For the last couple of years I have really gotten into k/c/j drama and now the American shows that used to interest me seem kinda boring. Maybe its just me or that I lack cable. I watch everything on the internet. But if that was the case I could watch American shows on the internet also so I'm just going to just say that it is just me. Maybe my interest will drop out of the drama scene and turn somewhere else. Who knows. . .

Truly Sick And Tired

Wow I have got to say that I am not starting this year well, physically I mean. So far its what week three into the new year and out of these three weeks I have been sick for two of them. If only it was just an easy fix, just take some cough medicine or antibiotics or something. I am truly baffled, I started off with a bit of nausea, then body aches, sore throat, congestion and then a sore ear. My list keeps on growing.
I went to the doctor for all of that got some medicine, then I started to realize that every time I drink water I get really sick, like nausea and usually end up with me on my back battling the waves of nausea, so I have eased off the water drink a bit of gatorade/vitamin water/ powerade. I've felt a little better, and what new symptoms decided to give me a visit some gaddamn diarrhea. This is totally pissing me off I need to go to the doctor and recheck this shit, how am I supposed to go to work with all these different symptoms? I don't want to stop to battle no nausea, no diarrhea no body aches, none of this shit. What the fuk is this man.

Thoughts On The New Year

Wow the year has passed so fast. . . I'm hoping that the year of the rabbit will be better for me, the year of the tiger has left me worn and tired. Not physically but mentally. People say that keeping grief in only makes it worst when you burst, I know that and I am trying to let it go. But people think I am doing it the wrong way. I lock my pain and memories away, if I don't think about it I don't hurt, I don't cry. But yes there comes the times that I do let it unravel and I feel depressed and want nothing to do but cry. How do you successfully come to peace? When I figure that out I'll write about it maybe.

Right to the subject on hand a new year has arrived! But I dear reader is still feeling the after shocks of 2010. So making wishes for the new year to be better will be one of my new years resolution. Ha! I will just make a list at what I want to accomplish this year and hopefully by years end I will get some of it accomplished.

1. Get More Hours at work or Find another job. =(
2. Save some money by years end. Hopefully start a savings account.
3. Uh pay off existing bills.
4. Do better in school

I think that is all I can think of for now. After reading the synopsis for the new year, who know it might be a very anticipating year, compared to last year.
