Current Beat of the Moment: Green Day - Wake Me Up When September Ends
If you wanted to know alot more about me, then here you go. Otherwise, you may not like this REALLY long ass post. Although, I'm hoping anyone that reads this will have something to say, either positive or negative. You have been warned.

I haven't written a journal for I think well over a better part of the year, and I can't get to Myspace's blog entries from work, so I thought I would write down my thoughts here in LJ land. I have been reading other people's journals though, and I do like reading what other people post about which brings me to do this. This one is pretty personal though - or so I'm lead to believe.

So, I've just finished watching pretty much the entirety of an old TV show, Arrested Development, and I freakin' love it. Is by far the funniest TV show I've seen in a long time. It passed about a day and a half of work, since I can't do whatever I want while no one is here. I got threatened by another co-worker today for having "too much fun at work", so I can't get away with much, but this bitch is just out to get me, or anyone that crosses her. Aside from her, I like the other people I work with, and the job itself. It's alot better than being in the military. I had to put up with alot of bullshit. But, I do enjoy the dog tags!! Thanks, US Air force!

Apart from that, i've been working a new schedule (10:30 PM - 7:30 AM CST), and spending alot of time with my son, all of which is pretty good. We went to a Monster Truck show this Sunday, and got to spend some quality time with him alone for a change since Christmas, and I really enjoyed it. I've wanted to spend alot of time with my local frinds too, but with my new work schedule and my financial situation, it's becoming alot harder to do so. It costs me about $60 a tank for gas, plus my bills that I get, so it's very hard to go out even just for a little while. For anyone that I may have been putting off, I apologize, but please have sympathy for my situation.

I've had alot of random ass dreams lately, and I don't know why. I can barely remember half of what I dream about when I wake up, so I guess that doesn't help. I'm growing up slowly and surely, and I don't know if I really want to. Playing video games isn't almost having the same effect it used to. There's still alot of things I want to do, but I still have a very young and careless mindset. Granted, I want a successful future, but I'm almost too lazy to care or work for it. I just want an easy life, it's the work thing that bothers me. I don't even really know what I'm thinking about right now, it's just kinda coming out on the keyboard. I don't mind working, as long as I'm enjoying it. I also still have alot of ambition in life, it's just getting there with the money I don't have that's the problem.

I still want to go to Anime Central this year in Chicago, but it seems that I may be having a problem finacially that's going to get in the way with that. I want to see some people I haven't seen in awhile, and just have some careless fun. I have a wedding to go to in April (which I'm really excited about), a car to fix among other things in my life that are broken. And I've also self-realized that as well - my life is pretty much centered around physical objects that should mean absolutly nothing and people I want to be around that I can't all the time. It's quite amazing how trivial and self-centered I've become, but I can't get over it. If I can't take care of myself, how the hell am I going to take care of someone else?

Which kind of brings me to the topic of women. I haven't had a "true" relationship in over a year now, and even that one didn't last that long. Granted, I don't mind being single, but I would like some sort of relationship, but it just can't be with anybody. I want a specific type of person, one of which I don't think I can get. Now, before anyone starts saying, "your standards are too high", or "you have low self-esteem", you can stop yourselves right there. I've already had standars WAY below par, and believe me, I'm not going back there - and I do have a great self-esteem right now, so that's not the problem. It's women these days. Either too boring, can't carry on a conversation, already taken, among a list of other problems that the more recent people I've been seeing have. Now, this doesn't go for ALL women. So anyone out here don't go all judgmental on me, because I'm not referring to you. Besides, I don't think I've ever dated anyone out here reading this. Granted, I'm sure there are a few people I would want to. It's just, I want a type of girl I can just get along with, without all the fucking games and strings. I've been telling myself this for years, but I attract fucking weirdos, or people who are EXTREMLY dramatic. I guess I'm just looking for someone, normal. Maybe I'm just asking too much. I don't really know. I guess I can't really ask for an answer to that either. Even if I were to ask you all to post your preferences of a relationship that you would want, I'm sure your thoughts are alot different from mine. Maybe I just want someone who can put up with me. I don't know. Maybe it's me who's the obnoxious one. Maybe I am starting to doubt myself a little. I was pretty confident a while ago - I'm pretty sure I'm still up there though.

Wow, that was pretty long. I guess (I like to guess alot about myself, because I don't think I even know myself) I just like to talk about girls alot. Like I said, I don't think I need a g/f, maybe just someone I can relate with. Someone who shares the same interests as me, someone who can be supportive, but also independant. And I guess I'm vain, but someone who's attractive. As much as people say crap about inner beauty, the outside is important too. But I'm pretty sure that goes both ways. Maybe that's my flaw. Or maybe it's the sex. But, I'm almost afraid of that, due to the fact that I've already got a child, do I need another? Also, my son does have some problems, so do I have cursed blood? I just don't know. I love my son, I just wish I didn't bring a troubled soul into this world. He's going to have a hard life ahead of him. I guess this turned into my downfalls all of a sudden. See how my mind can get off-track? This is how my thought-process goes.

There's alot of people that I've been with, and I want to say that I've taken something from every relationship/encounter, but there's isn't much I've learned. I make alot of the same mistakes over and over again, but - there's still something I'm looking for that I just haven't found yet. Or so I believe. There's some people out there that I think would be a good match, but fall under the "too far away", "way too hot to handle", or "taken" categories. I'm not revealing any names, so don't bother asking. I'm just writing down what comes up in my head. Although, something I HAVE learned - it's a bad idea to go after an ex-gf of one of your friends. There's a reason she was dumped, and it should stay that way.

I'm starting to look back on these relationships now, or the ones that I've wanted. I guess the last topic just kind of lead there, but I've had alot of good times. Some ended in tragedy, others I couldn't care less about. Although, for some reason (and I shouldn't be), I am stuck in the past. I can't move on for some reason - and I don't know why. Form what I can guess about myself, I'm just waiting for the right thing to come along and make me forget everything with just how awesome she is. Someone to devote my attention to.

Another thing I wish I could change, is to be able to stop myself from making stupid decisions. I do it ALL the time, and it's almost like impulse to do something stupid. Whether it's seeing the wrong person, or something stupid coming out of my mouth, I just can't prevent it from happening. That bothers me alot.

Also, I've been trying to stop smoking for awhile, but I almost don't want to. People don't like that, and I know that. But - it's for a few reasons that I do. For one, I smoke when I get bored, which is alot. Now, what if I just fill that spot with something productive, you say? Well - if I didn't like doing physical things, then I would agree with you. get up and do something. But, alot of that costs money. That I don't have, might I add. Another reason I smoke - I seem to have some sort of death wish. It's not that I want to die, I'm just not afraid of dying. I've had a good life so far, it hasn't been miserable. I'm not going to kill myself, so don't go that route with this. I'm not depressed. I'm just tired of things, that's all. Politics with life and all. I just want to live my life as I see fit, not other people. A reason I like smoking, it gives me time to think, and gets the brain moving. One of the reason I hate smoking, is due to other people bothering me when I do. They like to talk about stupid shit, like the war, or other stupid crap I don't want to hear about. This is "me" time, don't interrupt it with your stupid ramblings trying to have "civil talk". *grumble*

On a lighter note, this New Year is doing pretty well for me, so I'm not complaining. It's just stagnant. New Years brings change, I've just yet to see it. Usually when things change, it's NOT for the better, due to something breaking or changing dramatically. I would like things to variate from time to time, just not major changes. And for my car to work properly, that's #1. God, I love that car.

Well, for anyone who's ACTUALLY read this all the way through, congratulations. Not alot of people actually manage to get past the first few lines to actually give a crap on this thing anymore, let alone make it to the end of one of my long-winded "thought-process" posts. If you would like to comment about anything you've read in here, please go ahead. I won't criticize you for it, but I am judgemental if you couldn't already tell.

Well (God, do I start EVERY sentence this way?), I've kind of run out of things to say, but if I think of more, you can get ready for another post. Cause not alot of people go back and read edited posts. I think I'm going to copy-pasta this onto Myspace when I get home from work (in about an hour) so more people can get into my head.

Also, if any of you out there have some pictures of me, please let me know because I don't have any. This isn't me being vain, I just need some more pictures of me on Myspace. I've just realized I have no pictures to put up there. Any help?

I just realized that this MAY need to be cut, so if anyone wants to teach me how again (LJ users), let me know.

Aug. 30th, 2005 @ 07:40 am Two More Days!
I'm feeling..: excited
Current Beat of the Moment: Wangan Midnight 2 OST - 1-09 (Fun Loving Spirit)
YES! It's almost here ~ the time to start screaming, It's a Celebration, Bitches!. My "Four-Day Weekend of Crunkness" is almost upon us! So far, I think my plans are as follows:

September 1st: Working on my birthday isn't something I'm fond of, but considering I'm already getting 4 days off of work for nothing, what's one more day? Once out of work, I may get ready to go out to a pub that most of us on base go to, but there might be too many annoying-ass people there, plus ~ alot of the people here make karaoke just look... awful. I need to get some video and show the world just how bad it is. Your kittens would cry, I'm not shitting you.

September 2nd: I'll be up at 5:30 a.m. (GMT) so that I can workout with my supervisor, then go with my roommate to do a normal PT schedule after that. If I have a serious hangover, then this will probably not happen. I'm trying to get totally fit right now, and I swear I'm going to do it by the time Anime Expo rolls around. With the routine I have going on, I know this isn't going to be an issue for me. *all smiles*

September 3rd: I think this is the night of the stag party, but I'm not sure on that. It's that, or there's another Yu-Gi-Oh tournament somewhere in England today, that I am supposed to go to. Something about a 9-year old girl wiping the floor with 30-40 year old men. I'm not TOO certain on this, but I'm pretty sure.

September 4th: One of my close friends here while I've been in England is getting married, and I've been invited. Huzzah!

September 5th: I believe this is the day for sobering up, but I might not be too certain. Today is also a workout day, but I'm not too sure if I'll be able to remember that, or how many brain cells I'll still have left.

As for yesterday, I didn't do much of anything except get a package mailed off to [info]sassyfri, played alot of IIDX 6th Style and updated alot of my scores on VJ Army. I wanted to talk with my friend [info]garreck, but he got home a little later than usual, so I couldn't stay up way too late. I'll get a chance to catch up with him this weekend, I'm sure though.

Oh, also - in case I haven't mentioned it earlier, I managed to find the Wangan Midnight II: Maximum Tune soundtrack, and OMG, does it kick some serious ass. [info]sykodx469, I know you're definetly getting a copy because of how much you and me played that game while I was back home. Any other takers, just let me know - I should be on AIM/MSN this weekend, having a drunken fit. Will you get a phone call from jolly ol' England this weekend? Only one way to find out ~ stay tuned!

I'm feeling..: excited
Current Beat of the Moment: Beatmania IIDX 9th Style - Lower World [DJ Setup]
I'm starting to plan out just what I'm going to do vacation wise. It all is going to start in October (or maybe a little later) when I find out just where I'm going next. Once I find out where my next base is, I will plan around that.

There are a few places I want to go ~ but I'm sure everything will pan out - it usually does.

- California (Anime Expo, DJParanoia, Nyndevelle)
- Texas (A-Kon, all my friends and family!)
- Chicago (Anime Central, sassyfri)

Eventually, I want to get my ass out to Japan also, just so I can really see what things are like over there. So, all my vacation spots look like they could be TOTALLY RAD AND FUN, each one has a convention and people I want to see. Now, it's just a decision I have to make I guess.

Also, pre-orders are out for Beatmania IIDX 10th Style over at Play-Asia.com. If you're still into the IIDX/Import scene, you need to get your hands on this. I've already pre-ordered my copy, and if I get one from the first batch, I'll get an e-amuse card from IIDX 12: Happy Sky - How freakin' sweet is that?

One more thing, I also need to finish taking my measurements so I can get that out to my costume designer.. gomen! I'm always late on these things. I've been too excited about the Sony PSP getting it's 2.0 update yesterday, and I've been jacking around with it ever since. Damn web browser... like I don't surf enough at work anyway!

Oh! I just realized that I've got a four-day weekend coming up too! On September 2nd through the 5th, I'll have an extended weekend filled with MASSIVE drinking, a wedding, and gaming. I'll be sure to call a few people or get online and get in touch with the community. =) It's only a week from now, so be ready! (There's another reason I'm celebrating, but I'm not telling!)

Well, I'm out of here for now - until next time!

Aug. 21st, 2005 @ 08:28 pm Another Weekend Update.
I'm feeling..: chipper
Current Beat of the Moment: Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee - Option Select
Well, let's try to re-cap what I did this weekend.. I remember some of it being memorable and eventful... although, I'm more on the US's time schedule of things - that's what I get for staying up until 7AM each day/night this whole weekend.

Friday
------
Let's see - all I can remember was talking to Lauren on AIM and having a great time.. I feel like things are running smoothly. Had a great conversation with her, and going to bed - with sweet dreams in my head. It's almost like you're floating on air. Also before that, called Jenn and we had a little chat.. I know I may make wrong decisions, but ~ this is the last gamble I'm willing to take.

Saturday
--------
Woke up late to teach a class of kids on "How to Play Yu-Gi-Oh". It's my community service ~ so sue me. Besides, not ALL kids are bad. Just the ones that are a pain in the ass are. What else, called Angi (glad you're doing alot better now!) and chatted it up for awhile. Until my phone died. *le sigh* Stayed up LATE and did some research on something that's been bothering me alot recently, and also was waiting for Sony to release the US 2.0 Update for the PSP. No go. Thanks, Sony. You shouldn't make a deadline you can't keep ~ TWICE. Also, had my 1st home taste of GF4/DM3 Session mode - I found someone here who doesn't mind playing the guitar. H, we SO need to do this again.

Today
-----
Woke up at about 12, went to the gym and got my ass served 3 games to 0 at racquetball. That was not fun. Sat down and watch the last 4 episodes to Bernie Mac, Season 1, and had some chicken. Yumm, chicken. =) Now, I'm updating here, and chilling out playing some Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee on my PSP. Might play some more GF/DM also. We'll see how things pan out.

But, another thing - since I don't get enough comments here already, thought I might kick things up a notch - let's see if anyone out there can answer this question. I would like to hear what your answers are...

"If you could give up anything and everything, just to have one thing you've never had... who/what would you do it for?"

Just something I was thinking about yesterday. Hope to see you soon!

I'm feeling..: calm
Current Beat of the Moment: Full Metal Panic - Tomorrow
Well, I'm feeling better now ~ only took a few days and the support of my friends. Thank you to everyone who posted on the last entry. You gave me alot of insight on some things and listening to some good music really helped out. Do you ever notice how some japanese songs really mean something whenever you are in a down-and-out mood? For instance:

Full Metal Panic - Tomorrow )
------
Love Hina - Winter Wish )
------
Visions of Escaflowne - Yubiwa )
-------
Hack//Sign - The World )
------

Those, for example are some of the songs that I've been listening to today, that pretty much sum up just how I was feeling and what about. Life is confusing at times, but you just have to pull through. If life hands you lemons, make lemonade.. or something like that. Anyway - I'm going to go back to work now.. but you might get another update soon if I'm feeling up to it, or have time to do so. See you again!

I'm feeling..: sad
Current Beat of the Moment: Ai Yori Aoshi - Towa no Hana (Op)
Anything you see or hear can open your eyes and heart to the world around you. Something as simple as watching two imaginary people fall in love - can really change your outlook on life, and how you have lived yourself.

I'm nearing 24 years now, and when I look back on life, I see some things that I did were exciting, and wonderful. But mostly, I see nothing but mistakes. I want to be happy in life, but whenever I catch myself going back, it's always screw up after screw up. Major things that have made me who I am today, and who I will be tomorrow. Things that you can't take back, wrongs that you know you can't right. All of these negative things prevent me from being positive - from being someone I want to be. I haven't shown a true emotion in a long time. Love is something that has been lost for years, wandering somewhere in a lost domain. Happiness which I always wish for and hope that seems around the corner, are somewhere hiding in my childhood years that I can't remember. I fill these voids with cartoons and games that take my mind off of the present and put me in a place where I can forget about my life, and live in a place where everything is right. The only things in the real world that I have to hold on to, are God, my family, my friends, and my job. If not for these things, I probably wouldn't be here today. For all of the things that I have done wrong, these people have forgiven me. They have helped me through the rough times, and eased my mind about difficult problems in life. I can only say, that I wished I had done more for them. I feel like when I was growing up, I was (and possibly still am) a selfish bastard. I don't even know what I'm going to do when my parents pass on.

I am so emotionally unstable, I just don't know how to feel anymore. Some of the things in life that are sad, are amuzing to me ~ but on the other side, when other people are happy, I am not. Sometimes, I just want to be an evil prick - but there's a part of me that wants to help people, and be nice also.. I'm always in some sort of inner conflict, and can't ever be at peace. I just don't know ~ maybe I just get this way around September-time.. usually I go through this every year, but for this year - it seems a little more off. Like it's getting worse and worse every time. That reflection period of your life when you realize what you've done and what's to come. Hell - I don't even know how my future looks right now, I'm just riding the wave. I never thought in a million years I'd be where I am today.. in the middle of England enlisted in the United States Air Force. At least I know a few people are proud of me, even though I'm not getting shot at like everyone else.

You know, I look back at everything I just wrote down, and it all seems like jibberish to me - just random babbeling.. Maybe I just need to get this crap off my chest, and just chill out. Who knows ~ because I sure don't. Maybe I just need someone to support me, a "ying" to my "yang", I suppose. Someone who can actually understand what the hell I'm talking about - a person who could reach my inner emotions that have been locked away for such a long time.

I'm thinking because of all the wrong things that I've done, this is what I get. Believe in karma, because it does exist. I am living proof. I can't really think of anything else to say ~ everything I've got is down for you to read now. Well, almost everything. I still haven't opened the "skeleton closet" yet. Only if I lose my complete sanity, would I do that. I still have my brain - it's the emotions that are in a mess.

If you've got any answers / advice - throw down. I'd love to hear what you have to say, if it's genuwine - of course. If not - don't expect your comment to hang around long. I'm in a pretty serious mood, as well as upset. So, you've got alot working against you.

Aug. 10th, 2005 @ 04:47 pm So, What Now?
I'm feeling..: cynical
Current Beat of the Moment: VA - Euro Adrenaline (Volume 2)
Hmm, well - my mind is in a state of limbo, just hanging around.. waiting for shit to happen. Cause you know it will. It always does. Like I have a drama cloud just following me around. *sigh* Can't wait for that, let me tell you.

As for work, I'm back to my real job now and I've already been busy as all hell just catching up on things. Not much to really talk about there. I'm retaking my PT test tomorrow afternoon to see if I can improve my score from the last time I tested. I was short just a little bit, and I think I can do better this time around because I'm not on cop duty anymore, and it's in the afternoon. I'm hoping for a run time under 12 minutes, and there's a 50/50 chance that's going to happen.

As for personally, I still have my sanity ~ for now. I could lose it at any moment though, given the correct circumstances. I'm dealing with one of those circumstances now, and it's just as hard as I thought it was going to be. I can't just come out and talk about it, even though it's one of the bigger things weighing on my mind right now. I'm more leaning towards just giving up on the whole thing, only because I've tried to make it work out so many times in the past, only to have it blow up in my face - BIG. So, instead of face the pain and heartbreak anymore, I'll just let it go. "If you let your love go, and it comes back to you - it was meant to be." Whoever said that was HIGH ON CRACK. That is all.

Also, I have a new person doing my cosplay costumes, which is much more reliable in getting finished products out to her customers. That's a sigh of relief for me, even though i've gone and wasted too much beforehand on the person who hasn't delivered SHIT. I managed to contact the guy doing my weapons (from a year ago) and it seems he just "lost track". We'll have to see about that I suppose.

Honestly, I'm just tired of getting fucked. I would love it if I had just one entire month for things to go the way I wanted it to. Here's looking to the future ~ drama-free and happiness bound. *shrugs* Yea, right.

More updates to follow folks, so stay tuned. I'm sure you'll get a chuckle or two out of it. Hell, I look back at my life and laugh - ALL THE TIME.

Aug. 7th, 2005 @ 10:32 am Do You Remember?
I'm feeling..: disappointed
Current Beat of the Moment: VA - Euro Adrenaline (Volume 3)
A long time ago (it wasn't really that long ago) - there was a movie called "Clerks" done by Kevin Smith of the "Jay & Silent Bob" fame. There was a pretty catchy and famous line from that movie that can pretty much explain how I feel at this moment.

Dante: "36? You sucked 36 dicks? Including me?"
His Chick: "Okay.. including you.. 37."
(a little later)
Dante: "Try not to suck any dick on the way to the car!"

Not to say that I've had my dick sucked (because I haven't) - I'm just showing just how much I'm hurt at the moment. I think it's done. I realized something was going on a long time ago, but I just never forced myself to believe it - what I thought I had was perfect. I may be able to move on, but it's going to take a while - thanks for the advice Jenn.

But, now that I'm up early, I'll either go back to bed, or stay up and contemplate this dissapointment further.

Current Beat of the Moment: Beatmania IIDX 9th Style - Music Select (in the background)
Well, after a MONTH of working for the cops, I'm finally done with that. Working at the gates and checking ID's has been alright, but I'm kind of glad to be going to back to my real 8-4 job on Monday. At least I'll have somewhat of a ormal sleep schedule now. =)

Aside from that, today's my little brother Nick's birthday! I'm so glad he's doing really well for himself, and I miss the living crap out of him and the rest of my family. I wish I could hang out with him alot more, but that's what vacation's for, ne?

Tonight I've been partying up just in celebration of my brother, and - I'm having a somewhat-alright time! Just been kicking back a few beers, and that's about it. Called my brother and Luaren and had small talk with the both of them ~ and I'll be calling Lauren tomorrow. =) All is good with the world right now. I'm pretty content with things.

I've been playing Tales of Symphonia still, and I'm on Disc 2 of my second time through. I'm only missing a few items and titles, and I'll finaly be done and be able to move on to new games and anime I still haven't watched yet (Da Capo: Second Season, Full Metal Panic, etc.)

I should probably stop typing right now so I can get some rest, as I'm still slightly tipsy and I don't want to fuck this post up more than I'm sure it already is, but I'll get around to posting alot more tomorrow (or soon!), so I'll catch up more later. Ja ne!

Jul. 24th, 2005 @ 08:30 pm *sigh* It's GREAT to be back.
I'm feeling..: Lost...
Current Beat of the Moment: Aikawa Nanase - Heat of the Night
I'm finally back in my own freaking dorm room again - and I love it already. Although it may be like, 400 degrees in here, it's all the worthwhile. Not like I hated staying at the house ~ but, I just needed my space again - my place.

Anyway, now that I'm back - I've been trying to get back into the groove of things again, and I can make phone calls again! Woo Hoo! The first person I called was Lauren, and well - that didn't go as expected. I couldn't hear much out of her phone for some reason (reception issues) and then she hung up on me. Don't quite understand it, but maybe she'll call back....

For some weird reason, I'm not sure why, but I feel like ~ well, I don't really know how to put it. I've been thinking about it for awhile now, and I can't exactly figure out how to put it into words. It's like - this whole situation is so surreal. I want to be with Lauren, but I don't know how to go about it. I know it's going to be a long time before I see her again - and she might move on again, but I really want this to happen. I guess this is why I feel lost ~ I just don't know what to do.

In other non-emotional related news: I've waited for a response from my cosplay people now, and nothing. I know she's posting LJ entries, and since I've gotten no response from her ~ I'm going to file a formal complaint. Now, I just have to find out who to do this with, and I'll at least try to get my money back, and go find someone else who will design some good costumes for me.

Now, I've got to finish my laundry and wait and see if Lauren will call me back. See you later on I guess - whenever another rant may strike me.

Jul. 19th, 2005 @ 02:20 am Weekend Update w/ Kyo Kusanagi!!
I'm feeling..: hopeful
Current Beat of the Moment: Aikawa Nanase - Heat of the Night
News from the top of the hour:

- Today I spent a good while speaking with Lauren ~ and I just can't get enough of her! Just hearing the sweet angelic sound of her voice is great. She's really picking my life up at this point. Even though the job's sucking hard right now, she can manage to pick me up at any time just by talking with me. I love it when she says sweet things to me. <3

- Played Tales of Symphonia again. I've got an Excel spreadsheet I made that has all the crap I have left to do to completly OWN this game. Although I still have to play through it 2 more times, I should have everything just about done by the 2nd time through. *sigh* It's alot better than playing dot.Hack - let me tell you.

- Had some people over to the house and practiced some Yu-Gi-Oh for a tournament this weekend. I won't be playing in it, i'll be helping to run it. You can consider this some "community involvement" for my next EPR. I hate supervisors and EPR's. And when you're working all weekend and people drive through the gate and say, "Have a nice weekend!" Try working 32 hours with no sleep in two days. Do the math and tell me how my weekend was. Also, my PT test is up soon and I haven't had a chance to work out due to the augmentee duty ~ I think I may be in some trouble. We'll soon see.

- Went to the post office today to find that I had a package waiting for me.. I wasn't expecting one.. my friend from Japan (who just recently PCS'ed there) sent me a box chocked full of good shit! It had a J-PS2 game (Big SD head Japanese people playing baseball), some articles about the subway in Japan and another about a baseball team, 2 CD's (one of which this song of the moment came from), and the "piece de resistance" - portable Beatmania. I couldn't believe it - I NOW HAVE TOKIMEKI MEMORIAL! I tell you though - it's about as hard as playing moon_child [A]. *sigh* I'll have alot of fun with all this stuff - Thanks Adam!

- Woke up to a weird AIM message from a friend of mine back home. I apologize for making your sister worry about you when she shouldn't be in the first place. I know she's family in all - but she's got her own shit to deal with. Tell her to stop worrying, things are going to be fine.

- Rinny, sorry I missed your b-day. I wish I was there so I could at LEAST see you again! I miss Burbie too!! *cries* There's always Mississippi though, ne? =)

- Jenn, keep it up with the great pictures! I wish I could see you IRL, but as fate would have it - you're too far away! I'll see you again soon though - you just need to come out to AX or something! I miss being your friend in class! =)

- Lauren, I hope I get to talk with you more, and your new pic is totally sexy. Good luck with the cosplay and I'll see you soon! <3


That's about all I got - make sure to keep it real here for some updates if you're still interested!

~ Kusanagi-Kun ~

P.S.: For the music - I just got it from a friend of mine in Japan. (http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ja&u=http://www.avexnet.or.jp/avexdb/nanase/&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dmotorod%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26safe%3Doff%26sa%3DN). Go there if you wanna learn somemore about her. This is totally an awesome song.

I'm feeling..: hopeful
Current Beat of the Moment: Beatmania IIDX 9th Style - Quasar [Outphase]
I've enjoyed my past two days off, aside from the fact that I had to upkeep this lawn (that isn't mine!), it hasn't been a bad time off. I managed to get a few things done, talk to a few people, and have to time to chillax, but now - I must sleep, because the whole 14-hour shift thing is about to return in full effect, starting at 4AM Friday (that's four hours from now for all you non-GMT people.)

Although, I wish I had more time to talk with Lauren, who I must say is getting to my heart ~ I hate to admit it, but as much as a hard-ass I usually am about falling for someone, she's turning me around. I mean - she's what I'm looking for in a girlfriend - I just wish she wasn't so far away. *sigh* Guess I'm going to have to wait and see where they put me next, eh?

Time to go have fun being an augmentee again, who can argue that?

Jul. 11th, 2005 @ 08:00 pm SF Augmentee Duty: 4th Day
I'm feeling..: tired
Current Beat of the Moment: Jay-Z & Linkin Park - Numb / Encore
It's come down to the fourth day now that I've been working a 14-hour shift. Things I wish right at this moment are:

- That this dog would leave me alone.
- That this augmentee crap would end, NOW.
- That all terrorist sons of bitches die, soon.
- That I was with Lauren in Chicago.
- That ACen '06 was here now.
- That I could sleep a little more.
- That I could hurry up and finish all the extra crap I have to do in Tales of Symphonia.
- That I had time for IIDX.
- That I lived in my room and not this damn house.
- Did I mention work?

Things are all stressed out in my brain right now, so now's not the time to talk - but to sleep. So, I'll hopefully get a better update in here soon. I have to work again at 4AM tomorrow and won't be back until 6-7PM. If I don't have to work the day after that, then I'll be online alot longer. We'll just have to see if I get a day off. =(

P.S.: Miss you, Angel. You're just about the only thing that's keeping me sane at work ~ I'm sorry I keep missing you online. You'll hear from me soon, I promise. =)

Jul. 7th, 2005 @ 08:02 pm I Hate Those Terrorist Sons-of-Bitches.
I'm feeling..: Vengeful
Current Beat of the Moment: Darude - Calm Before the Storm
Damnit.. I swear to god, why does this kind of crap have to happen?

Birthplace : New York - 9/11
Host Country & Family : United Kingdom - Shit that happened in London today..

What's next? I just wish I had the chance to shoot these bastards. But, I may get my chance! I get to play cop duty until further notice. After what happened today, I DARE them to try something - and we'll see how many people get to answer to my M-16.

Oh, and by the way.. I am alive, for anyone who was worried about what they heard on the news. But now I have to get some sleep, because I have to be up at work VERY early tomorrow. Wish me luck, everyone.

P.S.: Sorry I still can't call you Lauren... i'm going to try my very hardest tomorrow - but it might be a little early for you. I hope you'll pick up.

I'm feeling..: frustrated
Current Beat of the Moment: Faith Hill - There You'll Be
I wish I could help you... but I don't know how... I wish I could hold you at this very moment, and I'm sorry that this had to happen. I'll still be here to support you, but it's all I can do for right now.. I'm going to pray to god that this comes out right.

Jul. 5th, 2005 @ 10:17 pm *sigh* Now THIS, is a bummer.
I'm feeling..: cheerful
Current Beat of the Moment: Vanessa Carlton - A Thousand Miles
As fate would have it, I am now spending the next three weeks in a house - not mine - that belongs to my old supervisor that has recently been deployed. His wife just went on leave back to the states, and they needed someone they could trust to watch over the house and thier ANNOYING dog. Usually, I can tolerate dogs, but this one is just WAY over the top. I hope we can get used to each other in the next few days.

So, now that I've said this, any plans that I had to do something are now completly off. Which means, Lauren ~ I'm sorry I can't call you tonight - I'm trying to get settled into this house, and I don't want these guys to come back to a HUGE phone bill. If I can catch you online sometime, I will be so excited and happy to talk with you again. But, as soon as I get back to my dorm (which should be for a little while tomorrow while I clean for Thursday's inspection, I will give you a call and see how you are doing. I'll let you know this though ~ I still miss you.

Work has picked up this week with the temporary change of position - I've got bitch duty. I'm cleaning up the dorms all week, and doing pretty much whatever the dorm manager tells me to do. Today, I walked around and picked up what seemed like beer bottle after beer bottle and at LEAST 500 cigarette butts. ALMOST makes me want to quit smoking, but it seems there's only two things right now that could make me quit cold turkey. Aren't we glad I got to clean up after all the 4th of July parties? *sigh* Well, it was just my time, so there's no sense in bitching about it - I just have to get this crap off my chest. I'm not angry about it, as a matter of fact - I'm kind of glad it got me out of my office for a little while.

While I'm over here though, I tell you I'll be doing alot of anime catching-up, as well as playing some much needed IIDX and dot.hack games. I'm so far behind on all the stuff I need to do, I'm afraid the ps3 is going to be released before I finish it all! (just kidding.) I have such a horrible sense of humor.. you know that, don't you Lauren? =P

My roommate's birthday is on Friday, and I still don't know what I'm going to do about it now that I'm over here house/dog sitting. Maybe I can throw something over here? Who knows. Only time will tell I suppose. I'll try to keep you updated later on throughout the week.

On a much happier note, things are looking up for me. I mean - things are alot happier for me right now. I have a few people to thank for that, but one in particular. I hope for the best concerning what may happen in the future. Only another ten months until that time again, right? Here's hoping.

Jul. 3rd, 2005 @ 01:04 am Just Looking for Sympathizers...
I'm feeling..: hopeful
Current Beat of the Moment: N/A
Have you ever got off the phone with someone you were talking to, then realized that the world ain't such a bad place after all? That everything has a positive side ~ and that things are looking up? If so, then please comment with your story - because I've got one of my own here, and would love to hear everyone else's.

Aside from this uplifting phone call that was made earlier, all I've been doing this weekend is playing a little IIDX, and just catching up on all the anime I purchased at Anime Central and at AKon 16. Some good, some bad ~ expect reviews on most of them the next time I return. Also, I've managed to get my friend's Battlefield 2 installed on my machine, and I am loving every minute of it. It's just so much fun! I didn't even think my system could run it, but guess who was wrong! Now, if only we can find a way to do Multiplayer...

For now though, I think it's time to get back to bed ~ cause I'm going to have sweet dreams tonight. Thank you, Angel...
