halloweeny 03/11/2009

not sure how the rest of you spent your halloween, but i can say mine was a little more quiet than usual.  halloween is my sister’s birthday so something is always planned with the family.  well, with just nii-san and me with dad still out in the complete opposite side of the world, we didn’t really have much planned especially since dad’s stay extension was totally last minute.

it started out at beni’s house.  i had stayed the night there because the night before was the halloween party for our kung fu school.  we got out there around 0230 in the morning, and upon getting home, beni played borderlands till about 6 in the morning.  i fell asleep during that time.  so our halloween started out late.  it was already past noon, i’d been making calls to my sister asking what her plans were, and during that, i still hadn’t eaten.  blood sugar low, starving, stressed, then finally eddie and nikki come and we head out to first watch for “breakfast”.  delish…  had a “veg’d out” omelette.  sooooo good.  and beni let me have some of his pumpkin pancake.  doubly good….  got back to beni’s then we drove over to my house to start birthday stuff with nii-san.

nii-san’s friend stephanie joined us later.  it’s always fun to have her around.  i feel less nerdy when she and ash start to babble about something like buffy or hetalia.  haha…  i think beni even got along with stephanie too.  they had some “nerd bickers/wars”, but all in good taste.  i thought i’d be the nice little sister and make nii-san some homemade fettucini alfredo, one of her favourites.  i think i need to adjust the recipe for next time, but it was still good.  i think mostly everyone had seconds.  while everyone was still talking at the dinner table, i started making some fruit jello.  which now that i think about it, we never got to eat because it didn’t cool in time and now that it’s not pure liquid, it’s frozen solid.  i hope it’s good though.

for the halloween part of the day, we watched “the lost skeleton of cadavra” which was probably one of the best cheese-tastic movies i’ve seen since zoolander.  xD  it was amazing and we all loved it.

“and together, you and i shall rule this world together!”

oh the cheese…  it was so good.  everyone should watch it.  it should be a halloween tradition or something.  kinda like how i always have to watch “hocus pocus”.  shut up!  it’s a classic!  after that we celebrated my sister’s 23 with some scrubs inspired appletinis!

i pretty much never have pictures of me.  so this is rare!  sometimes being the camera chick sucks.  D;

nii-san with our martini shaker substitute (an emptied out voss bottle) and her friend stephanie with the apple garnish.

nii-san and stephanie were going out later for more drinks so they only made their appletinis with green apple smirnoff ice.  nii-san was nice enough to make beni’s and mine virgin.  aren’t our martini glasses fancy??  *sigh*  still sucks how all our stuff is packed away in boxes, but hey.  no one complained!

during appletinis we just chatting tons more.  a lot of batman related stuff came up as well as spectacular spider-man.  hmm…  see what i mean about nerd stuff?  after that, beni and i had to leave to meet up with our friend dara for party-hopping.  also nii and steph were planning to go out as well.  we pretty much finished off the night watching mega64 videos.  ahhh…  it was a pretty good night.  hahaha~

aside from that.  everything’s going ok…for the most part.  i’m not completely bored out of my mind yet from not being able to do ANYTHING, so that’s good.  i’ll give it a few more days till i say “FUCK IT” and turn in a few job applications.  i’ll try to work.  hell, i HAVE to work sometime!!  if my doctor still says it’s too much stress on me, then i’ll stop.  developing some sciatic nerve pain now which really blows, but i think i can tough it out.  just keep my legs elevated while i sleep and knees above my hips when i sit.  i think that’s the remedy.

things coming up:
-8th, open house at the wushu guan’s new location.
-photo shoot on the 14th.  hopefully i can go this time.  anyone want to join?  text me!
-17th, appointment with DCF, hopefully going to get some more benefits.
-next appointment with doctor on the 20th.  keep your fingers crossed for better news.
-25th daddy HOPEFULLY finally comes home from the philippines.
-25th at 7pm, premier of the ben 10 alien swarm movie.
-sometime in nov is thanksgiving.  when is this again??

toodles for now!  much love!

“whatever it takes, i know i can make it through…”

oh lovely day 09/10/2009

i’ve been in a pretty good mood recently.  i think it’s because it’s autumn and i keep having this good feeling that it’s going to be really deliciously cold and beautiful.  i don’t know.  just a good feeling, so don’t rain on my parade.  hahaha..

i’m still pretty sick.  i know i talk about that all the time, but the illness is kinda long term.  i should be getting better really soon.  at least i’m finally going to see an actual doctor about it.  yep!  i have an appointment on the 23rd of october.  i’m a bit nervous so hear what he has to say, but i’m keeping my fingers crossed that everything is good.  i’m not quite sure i’m ready to publically say what exactly i’m sick with, but it’ll come eventually.  just be patient.  ^^  just know i’m not dying!

a video blog is long, LONG overdue, i know, and i’m hoping i can do one soon.  i just have a lot going on right now and during the time i’m actually NOT suffering from one of my many symptoms, i’m doing things like paperwork, bills, or just trying to enjoy my time with friends because, hell, i’m effin’ back in florida and i freakin’ miss them!  i might just do a short one, do just compose something like my vloggeversary video.  i record a lot of crap when i’m with friends so that should count as a vlog right?  and now that i know i have a lot more family and friends who actually WAIT for me to update those, heh heh…i need to get on the ball, eh?

other than that, being really artsy still.  doing a few paintings, not finished a few but HUUUSSSHHH, and really just enjoying painting freehanded.  i been really wanting to move this is artist community in Land O Lakes, but i don’t think i’ll be able to move now anytime soon.  i’m still thinking about it and keeping it on the top of the list.  which reminds me, they have parties a lot.  anyone ever want to go??  i always want to but beni doesn’t so i’d be going alone…and that’s sad…  hit me up on the emailz, twitter, myspace, or something.  also MIGHT be doing a photoshoot there sometime soon.  i’ll have to see how i feel, but i really want to go.  anyone is welcome to come with me too if you want!  <33

quick family update:
niisan is actually being a responsible adult and looking for jobs and such.  she’s been going to career workshops and everything!  hell, i didn’t even do that.  maybe i should.  haha.  maybe i need to find a career to pursue first though.  hmm..  her birthday is also coming up soon on the 31st.  oh that halloween baby.  as for dad, birthday coming up soon on the 25th.  i feel so left out being in february!  hmm.  and at mom’s birthday was on may, so we are both out of the october loop.  other than that, dad is busy saving the world!  haha.  kinda.  since the typhoon in the philippines, my dad’s been travelling across the phils feeding homeless people and just being an all-around good person.  i’m wondering if there’s a person of the year type thing i can nominate him for.  no.  i’m serious.

this little raven is off.  i’ve got a few interwebz stuff to catch up on, then after that, focus on not getting a headache, then going out with the boyfriend.  toodles!

a daddy for easter 13/04/2009

daddy came home!  ok.  never mentioned it here, but daddy went on a random casino trip and disappeared for a few days.  didn’t know when he’d be back.  he showed up this morning.  it was pretty cool.  he took me out for dinner at BJ’s.  yummm..  we even got to take home a few loaves of bread.  uhh.  that bread is heavenly…  oh man.  that just made us sound like poor people.  no.  we ate actual food too!

other than that, we really didn’t do too much.  i wasn’t forced to go to church (thank goodness!), so that made my day.  dad took a nap during the day and i pretty much just sat in front of my computer watching episodes of total drama action (series 2 for total drama island).  yeah.  not as good.  oh wellz.

i consider my easter basket the package that beni sent me.  (i still need to take a snapshot of that…)  LOVED it!  got some peeps to eat, but i never have the heart too.  i mean, they are just SOO effin’ cute!  he also sent me some couplings for me to make hoops.  yay!  he sent a few other goodies too.  even a cute little bunny card!  <333  speaking of bunnies, hope y’all liked the bunnies from the last post.  =;3

random picture with my new jacket.  post about that later…

freaky bunny girl 25/08/2008

look at my flower child!

thought i’d share this video with everyone. found it to be super cute. nii-san sent it to me in her most recent e-mail.

after watching that i looked at other bunny videos on that site. SO FREKKIN’ KYUUUTE! oh man. i feel like one of those freaky cat lovers who take pictures of her cats every time she finds them sleeping in a small, confined space like a shoe or in between dressers. O_o;;

so my big sister officially moved out of the house today. oh man. i was wondering if she cried. then i thought about it and wondered if my papa did. aww! nii-san is such a daddy’s girl. so weird knowing that when i get home nii-san won’t be in her room. yeah yeah. her university is barely 30 minutes away, but it’s still weird. guess she beat me at this race! i hope she has fun living on her own and i hope she takes full advantage of it. i want to go and visit her in her dorm and watch shows like scrubs while we reminisce about the “good old days” as we eat delicious fruits that we are allergic to but can’t stop eating (ie. nii-san+asian pears, me+cherries). yeah… that’s a plan. xD

made a new video since today is christmas for all national parks. it’s kinda blah but oh well.

now catching up with drawings. by the way, i gave up on trying to recall the exact dates i drew these. =P

umm… just had to draw something. i think i was lacking sleep. O_o;

-

probably my favourite drawing from my KOF series so far. beni said it looks like she’s going “orochi.” i’m not sure if i’m going to make her have orochi blood. i might vote against it.

-

beni made jake’s story ungodly depressing so i thought i’d draw one of the events he came up with. eventually beni decided not to make jake so “emo.” thank god.. drawing was ok at first…then i inked it. -_-

-

a cup of coffee! beni said he thought jun should be drinking tea, but she’s not THAT classy. xD for some reason beni absolutely despises when i draw jake with a tie. O_o;

-

something more “manly” for beni. he doesn’t like girly girl fru fru “crap.”

-

i can see jake to be a little stubborn. playing on beni’s idea of him always being the underdog.

them a little younger. (jake 21-ish, jun 12-ish?)  jake’s always been stubborn i suppose. xD

jun: that’s what you get for being so reckless and impulsive.

but if it weren’t for you, i wouldn’t be here now..

-

BREAKFAST! i can see jun as the housewife-type.  i had a background of a kitchen going, but i guess through the editing it faded.  =/  oh wellz.

tis all for now.  ta!
