Ohaiyo!

I really want to start waking up at a good hour but, I usually can't because my stomach makes too much acid, blah :p. But, today I woke up at 8am which was rather odd because I went to bed at 12:30am, but hey that works for me! I guess I might need to take a nap somewhere because today is *drum roll* THE FIRST JAPANESE CLASS! But it's from 7:30-9:50pm and sensee always seems to drop a bunch of homework on us... I guess that's okay though, because I LIKE JAPANESE CLASS!!! WOOH!

My view is awesome right now, I have a big Japanese tree in front of my window. It's flowers bloom in summer (I think), they look like little red swords. It's a good tree to climb too. I'm pretty sure that's the only thing I'm going to miss when we move (YAY! moving!), we're going to try to move to the beach area... Maybe I'll still have an awesome tree to look at or, the beach. I hope our house has one of those window seats. I can already see Jade (my dog) and Maneki (my cat) sitting on it soaking up the sun. And I'll be reading some classic book that actually has a manga in it, hehe.

Well, I'm off to make some breakfast! Ja ne!

Spring time

First off, Happy New Year everyone! The next year in the zodiac is the Ox (my brother is an Ox). So happy Ox year too (The Chinese new year starts January, 26Th).

I know, I know it just became winter a little while ago but I already can't wait for spring! Spring is my favorite season, the weather is nice and a bunch of delicious fruits grow in spring (such as strawberry's, my favorite!). On a different note I'm using the laptop again but this time it's upstairs! O_O Woah! I see this coming in handy a lot during the spring semester!

Lately my spelling and grammar have been pretty bad. I hardly even write English outside of my blog and e-mails. Blah :p. I guess I should probably work on them more...

Did you know that it's good luck to eat Buckwheat (Soba) noodles on New Year's Eve? It's also very traditional to eat mochi on New Year's Day. So yesterday I made Soba and Miso soup and today we'll have green tea ice cream mochi (we couldn't find the regular kind... I don't think Trader Joe's caries the kind with red bean (Azuki bean) inside... Oh well, this kind is still made by pounding dough in a wooden mortar type of thing with large mallets! I would love to make mochi sometime. I think Little Tokyo in Los angles had a festival like that but, I'm pretty sure I missed it. Oh well, maybe I can go next year.

I was around a bunch of guitar playing yesterday and became somewhat inspired to play the guitar everyday. It's very difficult though because my dad sleeps in until very late in the day and by the time he leaves it's already dark so it's more difficult to see the guitar strings. But he is getting a new schedule soon that will let me play the guitar in the actually day! I can tell, this year is going to be awesome! We already have a bunch of stuff planned. Getting into JA2, moving into a nice house by the beach, making bento boxes for mom, getting guitar lessons... The list goes on.

It's weird, every time I select a thumbnail size for the little picture when I'm posting a update it comes out it's regular size... I should probably mess with the HTML a little next time...

Camp Rock

Okay, okay I know what you're thinking... "What in the wild world of sports is going on?" But yes, I did actually watch Camp Rock from the Disney channel. And I found it much inspirational and a bit confusing. It made me want to take voice class and pick up piano again along with the guitar (acoustic of course). Not to be self-flattering but, I do have a pretty good voice. And I've recently found out that I can hit more notes and different types of singing. I think I'll ask Coach Cheese to go with me to a Karaoke place and see what all those voice lessons have done this semester. I still really would like to hear her voice. I haven't heard it once since I've met her (almost 2 years ago, this March).

Now here's the confusing part, I somewhat wish to be *shivers*....normal. I see what all these people look like and I kind of like their uniform style... But, then again I do like my baggy boy pants and a spaghetti strap shirt too... And I've really wanted to dye my hair a Kagami purple. It would be nice if I had green eyes for that though. I'm pretty sure green eyes plus light purple hair equals complete awesomeness. The only reason I haven't changed my hair color is because, 1 My dad doesn't like dyed hair for some weird reason. and 2 because I'd have to bleach it first, and then my hair won't be all nice and soft like it is now. I mean how can "normal" and my weird purple hair and ponytail fetish go together? I have no idea! Until I find out how that can work I bid you a do'.

Get into gear already!

I assembled my desk today! It took me a really long time though but, I did it all by myself! I really want to start getting into a schedule again... So far it's been going rather umm, lame. I've been waking up way too late, not going running like I wanted too and I haven't been stretching in the morning, either. Basically I want my schedule to be something like this:

8am Wake up
8:05am Eat breakfast, stretch out/ Leave for Japanese Culture class (on Saturdays)
9:30am Start studying for Japanese 1 (JA1)
11am Try to catch Gunsmoke on TV Land (I've just really been into that show lately)/Leave for Teen Disney Days (Thursdays?, Fridays?)
12pm Eat lunch/ Go to park days (some Mondays)
12:35pm Get home from JCC/Do whatever, Go on the computer, Blog, Walk the dog ect./Leave for JA1 (Mondays and Wednesdays)
6:30pm Free time or more studying... Or read a book
10:30pm Get home from JA1/ Get ready for bed/ Study a little bit more... XD
11pm - 12am Go to bed


Basically something like that... But I still need to figure out when I want to do Gymnastics... I defiantly want to go into the 3-4 Grade but I still haven't decided which day... Cheese and I still need to have a ridiculous talk that will probably end up having to do with pink skirts and gym teachers. ;3 I'm off to bed now, till next time, Sayonara!
