It turns out the Housing Exemption form I had sent to ASU was an outdated version so they emailed me the updated one to fill out for Fall 2010. Nothing seemed too different, except for the last page.

"In the space below please include a detailed narrative, to be written by the student, detailing why living at home with your parent/guardian is more academically beneficial for you than living on campus."

Um....what? Am I reading this correctly? "Financially beneficial", was totally what I had in mind from this form. 8l I really don't mind writing a detailed narrative, but I would prefer to write it on something that MAKES SENSE.

Trust me, if I had all the money in the world, I'd be living it up next year on campus like no tomorrow. I know living on campus has its definite perks. You're closer to university grounds. You have closer access to the libraries. You save money off 15% or more on your car insurance gas.

UGH, I mean, if ASU would like to give me a place to stay, FREE OF CHARGE, I'll take it. I'm getting a headache from trying to make sense of this.

I've also been reminded now that I have to finish writing my reflective essay for my senior English class. I chose to write about my recent fight against Pneumonia and H1N1. Yes, I had Swine Flu as well during that time. I didn't want to make a big deal about it. e_e;; I do wish I could talk about something more "life-changing", but this is as close as I'll get. I'm REALLY grateful that nothing of a more severe degree has happened to me up to now though! D:

Oh, school~ What a love-hate relationship I have with you sometimes~ x'D

My face hurts from smiling so much.
8D

I got an Olympus FE-4010 with 12 megapixels for 100 bucks! Woohoo! WAY better than my Olympus FE-190 with 6 megapixels. UPGRADE, BBY~ CB<

A-aha, but due to this excitement on buying a new camera, I totally spaced out on buying things for everyone. x'D;; Well, not necessarily presents, per se, but more or less wrapping paper and etc. ^-^;;

Meh Uncle and Auntie are gone now~ D': I miss them already. The next visitor is meh one and only sister though! YAY~ C'8

My sister is letting me buy something off of EBAY for Christmas. OH GOODNESS. What should I look at? A wig? Animu merchandise? HENTAI? D8 *really has no idea*

This entry makes no sense. I'll stop now. :B

By Friday morning, my fever had almost reached 104 degrees and I was vomiting everything from half-digested food to pills, so my parents took me to the ER at the hospital where my mom works at.

Turns out I've got a small case of Pneumonia. I've only had it a few times before, and the only other time I was in the hospital for it was when I was a baby. Gah, lungs, why~? D: But my fever has gone down to 96 degrees now! That's a big decrease! x'D;; I'm still coughing here and there, but not so much as before.

Lol, but when we went to the ER, everyone else there could tell I had something more than a silly cough, so they all sat very far away from me. Oh the isolation~ And instead of just seeing the "check-up" doctor, I got put into a room, laid on a bed with a gown, and had an IV. I got so scared. Then I had to get an X-Ray. Yeah... >_O;;

Goodness, now I'm so hungry! D8 I guess it doesn't help that I puked out my breakfast, lunch, and dinner.... e_e;; I really don't want to take any more pills though! Now I'm taking, like, 4 a day. Dx *do not want* Must get better! And fast! >8(

My mom and I went to my school earlier today to excuse myself for the rest of the week. At the Attendance Office, I conveniently came across my government teacher, so I was able to personally tell him I'd be absent today and tomorrow. Woo, I have a test to make up later. x'D;; We went to the Nurse's Office afterwards to check my temperature and it had gone up to almost 102 degrees, yikes. D:

Afterwards, we went to Urgent Care, where I got tested for the flu (one of them returned negative, thank goodness, but I have no idea on the other one...), and I got breathing treatment (oh joy, medicine air). e_e;; Now I'm to take 2 capsules a day, for 5 days, and inhale 2 puffs every 4 hours from my inhaler. I double-check the boxes every now and then to make sure I'm taking the right amount. ^-^;;

Gah, I really hope I feel better by Saturday though! D: I want to hang out with my uncle~~~~ He's the one who really got me into Pokemon, Digimon, Yu-Gi-Oh, etc. x'D My other uncle got me into Inuyasha, and my other other uncle got me into Naruto. I love it when they argue on which series is better. It's hilarious. But I digress! 8D;; I'm rambling now! Time to go rest some more~

Where on earth or maybe it's alien did this flu come from?! D8 I was feeling totally fine then BAM! I wake up Tuesday morning feeling like someone is stabbing knives into my head and chest. Jeez, I totally feel Fran's pain now.... xD;;

And just when we started our Chocolate Creme Pie lab in Culinary too! D'x I totally wanted to punch two of my group members today. But that's a long story~! 8D;;

Oh man, oh geez, chapter 267 of Reborn. VARIA~~~~~~ *fapfapfap* OvO <3333

*goes back to bed* x'D;;

Nope, I'm not just referring to the movie! :'D

My aunt and uncle from Georgia are visiting this weekend to see the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas so my parents are doing the honors and are going to be showing them around the area~ They'll be leaving early Sunday morning and will be there till Wednesday morning or so. Which means~ I will be home alone Monday and Tuesday! 8D Woohoo! I can't wait for the responsibilities! C'x I'll get to drive myself to&from school, cook my own meals, take care of my dog, etc.! As miserable as all of that sounds, I'm actually quite excited to do these chores! x'D;;

Shoot, I was so energized after hearing this, that I practically took a hold of the kitchen in Culinary today! *can't wait for the next lab cuz I get Sou Chef status, OH YEAH BBY* I literally did EVERYTHING. I prepared the sanitizing solution, I cleaned the kitchen (a couple times actually, cuz my unruly group thought it was fun to have flour everywhere), cut the pizza dough, rolled it out, divided it amongst everyone, set them in the oven, helped dry dishes, got dirty towels into the washing machine, and put the equipment out for the next class. OH. And I yelled at some people to get to work. 8D *BOSS TIEM*

Now I'm in the process of looking through this Naughty and Nice Christmas gift list and I'm about to get started on making some presents. :'3 I can't wait to see everyone again~ C'B

This journal entry is WAY overdue!  D8  Better late than never though, eh?  8D 
( Click for videos! :D )

A good friend of mine has something to say:    8D

Woohoo, I got my Immunization Records and Housing Exemption form sent to ASU!  Looks like I won't have to worry about meh FAFSA and transcript till next semester after we come back in January from Christmas break!  8D

Yay~!  *wants to schedule a visit to the campus now*  x'D

Today is too good of a day to rant on here, so I shall leave this entry short and get to watching "My Neighbor Totoro" for the first time!  :'D

I COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT POSTING SABOTEN-CON ANIMEFEST STUFF.  I  WILL DO THAT THIS WEEKEND.

Words.  I will try to describe this past weekend to the best of my abilities.  :D

( ~*Friday*~ )

( ~*Saturday*~ )

OH GOD.  SABO.  IN A FEW HOURS.  AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

...

......

.........

I'M EXCITED.  *so not typing this up at school*  8D

Oh, Tom, of all times to suddenly appear~  >;3

*Dying Will Mode*

Fran hat.  What a love-hate relationship I have with you.  D<

Fran coat.  I am still debating if I have enough time to put pockets on you.  >8[

Ranka dress.  Eeee, you need work.  I ain't gonna lie.  D:

Fran/Ranka wig.  I need you trim you a bit more!  :'d

Soon-to-be-Yuuri wig.  OH BBY, I CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU TO BE DONE.  8D

Emotionally and mentally, I'm very scared.  Thus why I'm working vigorously to prepare myself physically and visually. 

This day could've been better.

• I could've woken up earlier and on time.
• I could've taken the time to look at the seating chart before sitting in the wrong seat.
• I could've shown more enthusiasm for this new project.
• I could've driven the safer way home and not risk all those collisions that might've happened.
• I could've thought of better ways to sew up my dress.
• I could've started making my hat.
• I could've laughed more today.

Screw you, Facebook application, tomorrow is NOT going to be such a horrible day.  I refuse to let it.  D'<

Ahhh, noooo!  Just when the progress with my Fran coat was going so well too!  DDDD8  Sewing machine ,wrrryyy?  ;______;  It's not a pain to hand-sew this.....but it really doesn't look nice.  >>;;  Should I just suck it up and get it done, despite all these faults with details?  :'<

My parents and I went to so many garage sales today!  One of them was a Japanese family raising money to donate to an Autistic Children's program!  Or something like that....I was way too sleepy at 7AM in the morning.  xD;;

I was browsing around when I saw these cute little Anpanman slippers!  Then I saw a bunch of cute little Japanese toys afterwards!  *wishes she were a little girl again*  D:  As much as I wanted to buy EVERYTHING, I couldn't, so I bought just a couple of neat stuff!  C':

  Deco Sweets!  All for just a dollar!  :'D

  Cute envelopes!  All for 25 cents!  :'3

 

Children's magazines!  All for 75 cents!  :')

I was pretty happy that I could understand all the gossip between the Japanese ladies there.  Their kids were so cute!  D:  I can't wait to go to Matsuri!  C'x

I read part of the 1st chapter before.....but it got too long for me so I decided to wait for the anime premiere.  xD;;  I watched the 1st ep and the ova just earlier!  I like it!  :D  I cried.  D:  Lol, this series is going to be a keeper.  x'D

  <------  THAT.  Closet-cosplaying Lag, yo.  *photoshopped*  xDDDDD

The Letter Bee uniforms are so cool!  D:  Lag, you shota, oh gawd, I looooove yooouuu~  C':  I'm stopping this entry before I fap any more.  xD

*flailing*  x'D
