I love, love, love the Prince of Tennis stuff on niconico, the fake lyrics are so funny XD
I'm going to go look for new boots today at:
TK MAXX
...why did they take an American store and only change one letter of the name..?
Does it really matter that the name be different, and if it has to be different, why not just name it something else entirely?
Even the sign is exactly the same except that it's a K and not a J oAO
...I don't get it TAT

THEY SHORE TRAINED PALIN GOOD LIKE A MONKEY HUH???????????
She had her lines memorized better than me in any of my school plays oAO I guess that's what almost 2 months of ONLY coaching and mock debates will do.
Has it really sunk to the point that not TOTALLY FUCKING UP in a debate makes someone electable..?

3:19 pm - Hallo!!
|
Hi guys :D So I got to England safely Friday and have been sitting around in my room with jet lag ever since then oAo/
Well, I went shopping for food and household items, but since I was sleeping late and leaving around 3 pm every day, and all stores close at like 6 pm (whatz), I've had nothing to do but go back to my room and watch the Simpsons in Japanese. I have like 3 Chinese, 1 Thai, and 1 German roommate but nobody's ever around.
I guess I could have gone to a bar, but.. >> I hate bars xAx/
Shit is so expensive here! xAx I got a liter of orange juice for like 3 bucks, and those conbini sandwiches you can get for like 190 yen in Japan are like 4 bucks xAx;;; But I found a Walmart-y type place called Wilkinson where I'm sure to shop exclusively for the next year oAO It was pretty cheap.
But I'm kinda worried because everyone I've talked to is basically having their rich parents pay for their school oAO Everyone here seems really rich.. The other people seem amazingly smart and are probably here on scholarship. So I feel like I'm the only person going into humongous debt just to get my master's..
But other than that it's pretty nice here. The scenery is nice and people seem to be generally nice. oAo/ feel like a douchebag though because I know how to do everything in Japan but I don't have a clue how to do anything here xAx I guess you learn though uAu/

Does anyone else think that the Gurren Lagann movie theme Tsuzuku Sekai isn't really good? xAx I mean I know it's hard to follow Sorairo Days but.. ;A; Dammit. Well, I won't be able to see the movie anyway, so whatever uAu;;
Recently our internets are all messed up. We were routing the internet to 3 computers, and it was getting to the point that I would open up a youtube video and it would take 15 minutes to load 30 seconds and then freeze uAu UNACCEPTABLE!! I can't live without at least the possibility of Youtube. I don't need to watch it all the time or anything, but not having it at all is something I can't deal with ;A;
Does anyone have any recommendations of new (well, new for me since I left JP) anime that are out/coming out last/this coming season? :D All I have is time to kill here at my house. :3 Need some ways to do that ;A;
Dude, so I am totally planning to go see JOE BIDEN speak in NH on Wednesday oAo//////////////////////////////
I am super duper excited about this!! I wish I could vote like right now!! And vote like 10 million times at once, too! oAo//// I hope you all are planning to vote this year -- for Obama and Biden!! oAo/// If not, I'll come break your legs so you can't make it to the polls! @A@/// I'm going to send out for my absentee ballot like a week before I leave for England -- so it can get there as soon as I do and I can send it out immediately so I'm not late or anything!! >o
I keep getting phone calls from pollsters and agreeing to take all of them. My sister is like "why are you actually answering those?" Because I want to show support! oAo/ NH is such a retarded red state I need to make my bleeding liberal voice heard! oAo/
If for some inexplicable reason McCain is elected I'm never coming back oAO;; It was nice knowing you all oAo////
I'm really worried because people keep saying Sarah Palin is hot... Despite the fact that this totally shouldn't be a factor.. Is she really? oAO She sounds like a banshee when she talks and looks like a possessed soccer mom that would cut off your penis if you cheated on her -- is that what's considered hot nowadays? She's had 5 children, too. Is a vagina the size of the Bat Cave hot as well?? I really hope people don't vote for stupid reasons like looks and charisma uAu But I wouldn't put it past this country because it's bursting at the seams with morons uAu;;;;;;
So I hope you're all gonna vote!!!11 Peace out!!!!1

12:20 pm - ALL OK NOW
|
Well Jesus Mary and Joseph, why did the visa people send me ominous email if they were just going to issue my visa today? xAx It turns out it seems I was just randomly spot checked, like when sometimes you get a boarding pass that says they have to randomly check your suitcases and stuff. But did they have to tell me it would take up to 25 days when a spot check really only takes like 1?? xAx
Anyway, with visa issued now I can just relax until I leave :D Yippee! I just passed out for the past like 3 hours oAo/
For the past couple days, since I got home from NY, I've been watching House nonstop. The first time I saw it was at Hannah's in Shanghai when she bought it bootlegged and I totally hated House, but now I love him ;A;/ I don't know how I didn't like him from the start /AT Anyway, it is amusing. I'm downloading the second season now.
I'm missing Japan a little, but I'm sure I'll be missing it a lot more once I get to England and things start sucking there for a change :3 I got a chance to go to karaoke with ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) 1sheep in NY (for just as cheap as you can go in Japan -- awesome! ;A;) so maybe I can get back to NY once and do it for a little longer before I leave. :3
I'm also going to try and visit my aunt and little sister in Maine one more time before I go. Despite it being full of inbred hillbillies Maine is actually quite nice to visit because it's pretty and has clean air.
I just downloaded all of season 6 of Penn and Teller's Bullshit so I'm gonna go watch that :D

1:34 am - Visa issues
|
Urgh.. xAx
My visa application has been delayed for possibly up to a month and a half which is way past my matriculation date for reasons totally unknown that I'm not allowed to inquire about oAob Nice!
Just as I thought I could really relax for the first time since I got back from Japan. I had my acceptance letter from a school, proof of funding, everything you need to apply.
But for some reason they've extended my application time like double that of anybody else I've talked to about it who's run into the same problem..
And I can't even begin to imagine why oAO What could be so important in my application which I thought was perfect that they would need so much more time to process it? They told me not to buy my tickets which of course I've already done because I expected everything to go well and didn't want to leave everything to the last minute.
Was it that I wasn't able to get in to pay my national insurance before I left Japan? Why would that affect my visa to the UK? Was it because I thought I had left my old passport with the Embassy in Tokyo when I renewed it but I just found it in a box I had sent from Japan months ago? They asked for a copy of it but I didn't know I had it xAx But how would they know/why would an old expired passport matter that much?
Other than those two things I can't see what it would be ;A;
WTF dude. I was just starting to get excited about leaving. I brought one of my suitcases from upstairs to pack it this afternoon. I'm supposed to leave the 25th xAx And I've decided to lie to my dad about it as long as I can because he'll totally worry himself to death -- he's already an anxiety ridden insomniac and there's totally nothing we can do about it until they decide to grace us with some information xAx
I just emailed my school about it. ;A; Hopefully they'll be able to help me out ;A;// It would suck so much if I couldn't go this year for some reason.. xAx;;;

7:44 pm - Hoshit I'm home!!
|
After the longest 22 hours in airport and plane and car I have ever experienced, I, with my cat Sophie have safely made it back to the US!! :DD
It was so long... =A= I didn't even bother watching any of the movies on the plane because I was either passing out or trying to get Sophie to stop meowing most of the flight. The United people told my dad bringing the cat on the plane would be free but when I got to Narita they were like 220 bucks please! So I didn't have any choice but to pay... They gave us a credit on a future flight for the mistake, but that still sucks dude.
But I'm happy to be back :3 Japan was nice and all, but now I get to relax for 2 months and then go back to school :D I think it was just Japan's time. I didn't really even get that sad or sentimental on the train out or anything.
Thanks to Hanna for helping me out the morning of my flight. What would I do without you? ;A; The night before I left we went to Crush of Mode at O-East to see Metronome, NoGod, Sex-Android, Guruguru Eigakan, Inugami Circus-dan and Shinjuku Gewalt. Needless to say it was totally awesome. I'm going to miss going to lives ;A;/
But yeah anyway United booked my flight so that I'd only have a 15 minute window to get onto my next flight from DC (ReTARded), which of course didn't work because I was still in line at immigration when my plane took off. So I went to the counter and was like ;A;/ and they didn't even say a single word to me as they booked a flight out at 10:05 to arrive in Boston at 11:39 (note: current time 4:40). They even added a "You're lucky you even got a flight out today" =A= THANKS BITCH! Try not booking people on a flight they'll never get on, assholes xAx
So I sniffled and wiped my eyes a little and called my Dad to check in, and he shat his pants as always and he called the airline and we found out there was a waiting list for the next flight at 6:45. I got on the waiting list and luckily I got on it! I was crapping myself because Sohpie hadn't gone to the bathroom, drank, or ate since she got in her cage almost a day before. That and I was all greasy and unwashed and just wanted to die.
So I got home and had some pizza and we watched Sophie walk around a little bit, and went to bed. :3
Anyway, glad to be back. If anyone wants to call me, I'll give you my phone number. :3

Hi guys!
Has anyone ever worked at a restaurant or some sort of food place before?
If so, how did you decide your shifts?
I worked at a CVS when I was in high school but I totally forget how we chose our shifts. But my maid cafe wants to know how they decide shifts in America, so I figured I'd ask you all :3
Lemme know!!!

11:33 pm - Wanna hear something ridiculous??
|
Okay, so a week before Mother's Day I was like "I'mma gonna be a good daughter this year!!!" and ordered my mom a big pot of flowers off the intarnets. I got the order confirmation, the shipping confirmation, and the delivery confirmation so I was like "Yayz! Mission accomplished!!" I didn't want to write her telling they were going to come because I wanted it to be a surprise.
But then like.. my mother never wrote. So I was like WTFz is she so drunk that she can't even write me to say thanks?? Or maybe she died alone in the house and they haven't discovered her body yet or something?? (both totally plausible explanations)
So I wrote her and was like "Did you get my flowers?? :D" and she wrote back a day later saying "No, dear. But I will imagine them in my heart"
WTFFFFFFF
I was like 1-800-FLOWERS IS GONNA GET ITTTTTT so I called them just now on Skype ready to be like WHY NO FLOWERS FOR MY MUMZ >O
But the lady on the phone was NICEST LADY IN UNIVERSE so I actually was like "So yeah, my mom didn't get her flowers. What's up with that? :3" I forget how much Japanese people are like emotionless robots on the phone and in any service situation until I do something in America again.
She told me that if my mother wasn't home, they would have left the flowers on her doorstep (good fucking idea, geniuses!!! WTF is wrong with you people?? Come back like an hour later for fuck's sake)
Which MEANS....
SOME ASSHOLE STOLE MY MOM'S FLOWERS, TOOK OFF THE TAG SAYING "Love, Lauren" AND GAVE IT TO THEIR MOM!!!! How much of a supreme douchebag can you be???????? >OOOOOOOOOO
Although I find relief in the knowledge that this person will PLUNGE STRAIGHT TO HELL as soon as they die, if I ever met them I would castrate them =A=!!!!!!!!!!!
People like this are a good example of why abortion rights should be upheld xAx
Speaking of people who deserve to have been aborted, if you weren't watching last week check out this awesome clip from the Daily Show:

3:34 am - Trying to decide if this is retarded
|
Hi all oAo//
So, lately I have been spending at least 700~800 dollars on clothes every month because it makes me feel less lonely. oAo/
It's kinda gotten to the point where I think that I definitely require some sort of mental health professional to help me out of it. XD
But I was thinking!!
If I had a CAT, I wouldn't need to spend my free time outside shopping out of loneliness! I could spend my free time INSIDE for FREE with a CAT! So lately I have been heavily considering getting a cat.
So, what did I come upon today as I was walking in Ginza before a job interview?
A CAT!!
Yeah, in Japan there are looooooooooads of stray cats in parking lots everywhere you go. They were either born strays or people throw them away. This one was suuuuper nice and jumped onto my lap as soon as I crouched down to say hello, so I'm assuming she was thrown away by somebody. And of course, since just as the Japanese have no ability to use contraception themselves, they don't spay or neuter any cats, so this one was preggers (every female cat I've seen in the past week has been pregnant xAx)
So, this little kitty is going to have a litter of kittens in a parking lot in Ginza.
On TOP of that, REALLY HORRIFYING, as far as I can see from 2 Channel, which granted isn't a very reliable source for anything but it gives you a good idea as to how a lot of people think, some people LOOOOVE to catch the friendly stray cats and abuse them by cutting their skin off or limbs or other stuff (as chronicled in the "I hate animals" BOARD that they have just for people who hate animals.. with thread titles such as "That cat that got killed on this board deserved to die, fucking stupid cat! (laugh)" etc).
As soon as I read this I was like OAO WHATSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS and now I can't sleep at all because I can't stop thinking of nice pregnant cat in Ginza and how much people who abuse animals need to rot forever in a pit of fire or at least be killed in an awful way in public.
So, off I go tomorrow to buy a cute animal carry bag to go get stray cat.
I was almost thinking of getting a purebred cat from a pet store (because pet stores don't ask you what kind of apartment you live in -- mine doesn't allow pets and most people wouldn't give me one of their kittens if they knew that ;A;) but they cost at LEAST 1000 dollars (usually way more).. and I was STILL OKAY WITH THAT.
But instead I will get pregnant stray cat, have her have her kittens in my room somehow, and then find homes for the kittens and keep the mommy and take her home with me to the States in August where my sister and her boyfriend can take care of her at my house until I get out of grad school oAo/
At first I was thinking my room was too small or something (my entire living area is about the size of an American bathroom), and my apartment doesn't allow pets AT ALL, but as long as I put something over the wall to protect it from being scratched up, play with the cat enough that she doesn't get aggravated and meow a lot (she was really relaxed and quiet when I met her in the parking lot) and hide her when they come to inspect the room when I move out it should be okay (tons of people do it) and really... is a small room in any way worse than having half your kittens die in a parking lot and either getting hit by a car, dying of sickness, or getting chopped up by a psycho???
So, wish me luck :3 I hope she's still there tomorrow, although it's such a small area that I doubt she'd be very far away. oAo

8:21 pm - For Akane
|
Akane!! I don't know if you watch anime or have enough time to but there's a new anime out that I think you might be interested in~~
It's called Hakaba Kitarou and it's Gegege no Kitarou but (from what you've told me before) I think it's based on the way older versions of it where Kitarou is ugly and it's kinda scary and stuff. :3 I like it a lot, I think I understand why you liked it when you were a kid.
That, and Kitarou's voice is GOKUUUUUUUU!!!! Holy balls, as ex huge Dragonball nerd hearing Gokuu's voice again is super exciting XDDD
In other news, today was my last day at work. :3 Even though I'm sure half the teachers hated me because I suck at teaching and their expectations are way too high, I cried like a baby saying goodbye to everyone XD I don't cry for basically anything except for saying goodbye to people oAO But saying goodbye to my 5th graders wasn't so bad because they were just being funny and stuff. I'm gonna miss them ;A;/
But yeah so I guess nobody wants to come to karaoke with me then, eh? ;A;//

Hey!! :D
I got into the University of Bristol!! :D
I'mma be getting my master's in sociology in the UK starting October!! oAo///
I'm also going to be in $40,000 debt starting October!! ;oAo////
That's totally kickass!! TAT I knew I wasn't buying all that Japanese stuff as if I were leaving soon for nothing XD;;
My job ends at the end of the month, and my ideal plan is to be a freeter (work part time at a clothes store) until I leave, since I never got to do that during school despite always wanting to and I know I won't be able to save any money anyway uAu;
But umm.. I think I had other stuff to post about what's been happening lately but I totally forget what it was oAo//
Edit: I think I meant to say for you all to add me on Skype oAo// I think my username is Lauren Wells but I'm not sure uAu; ...I don't know how I'm going to get through grad school with senior citizen computer skills, but I'll try xAx/
Edit 2: Just kidding, my username is lauren.wells1 ! I'm going to go get that lobotomy I'm long overdue for now.
It also just occurred to me that I should probably change my icon one of these days. I don't even know how to do that anymore.

9:46 am - TAT
|
I'm so broke up about Hammy, his tumor is so big his back legs don't reach ;A; Hamster tumors get really big really fast, because it totally wasn't this noticeable a few days ago, and yesterday he didn't have problems walking. I read that they usually go to their toilet area to die, and he was just sleeping there and breathing kind of irregularly, but he got up and kinda went over to a little bed of tissues I made for him, so I wonder if he's gonna die soon ;A; I feel so bad for the little dude.. I've been feeding him green beans and a little cookie and pine nuts and stuff, and I've been keeping my heater on so he's warm.. but I don't really wanna pick him up and move him around if his whole body is riddled with cancer and he's in pain and stuff ;A;/

12:09 pm - Uh, hey oAo/
|
Hey! :D Long time no see!
It was my birthday 10/25 oAo/ Thanks to madlovescience for the present :3 It looks delicious. I wish I were only 1 XD;
I turned 24 /AT Lately I've just been depressed about my appearance and aging deginitely doesn't make me feel any better uAu;;; I didn't have a party or anything, although Hannah is going to buy me dinner sometime :3 Maybe I can have a little party sometime in November oAO
But yeah, lately I've been even more of a hermit than usual oAO Especially because I don't have any money. I just kinda stay cooped up in my room all the time uAu;; I just sit around watching Nico Nico Video. Which IS hilarious, but not really a social thing oAo
I think I'm doing the same thing I did in my first year of college. I knew I was leaving at the end of the year so I just cooped up in my room and didn't do anything or try to make any new friends. I think I subconsciously try to disappear from memory or something XD;
I haven't had my period for over a month though I think my body's just messed up because of my work situation (which is really stressful) and stuff.
But on a fun note, I'm moving again :D Which is a good thing, believe me oAo I'm really stressed out at the place I am now because the living room is always full of people I don't know and I have to pass by in various levels of disarray to go pee xAx Like I can't just go pee without like 10 people seeing. I'm moving to another guest house like 20 minutes away by bike. It's on the Tobu Tojo line so I have to go through Ikebukuro, Shinjuku, Harajuku, and Shibuya on my way home every day ^A^ I stayed over last night because I'm already renting the room, and it's normal but I like it. :3 It's next door to a public bath too, so I can go have real baths again uAu/ I can't wait to move! oAo/// I almost never run into another human being while I'm there, and I can pee without having a bunch of people being like "Hey!"
Once I move I should have stress levels reduced by like 600,000.
Anyway, I think today Krys and I are going to our old college to their autumn festival. :3 That should be fun ;A;/
Edit: As if moving, applying to grad school, living in a place you hate, and having problems at work isn't enough, my hamster's eyeball was red so I got super worried and took him to the vet, and it turns out he has super obvious advanced cancer that I never noticed xAx;;;;;; I thought it was his balls, because it's on his balls, and I never pick him up because he bites, but it turns out that it's a huuuuuge plainly malignant and scary-looking cyst xAx I just thought his balls were really big ;A; I'm super shocked and have spent the past hour crying ;A; The vet gave me painkillers and I guess I'm just going to have to be super nice to him before he dies.. I was a super crappy owner because I only cleaned his cage like once every 60 years, and his life sucked in general because his owner threw him away and nobody but me was willing to take care of him ;A; I just feel super bad. But he's still all energetic, running on his wheel and eating and stuff. I wonder what sort of special crap he'll like I can feed him now oAo
Anyway /AT I'm going to go to Matsuya and drown my sorrows in a big beef bowl ;A;

8:53 pm - Tokyo Game Show 2007
|
My third Tokyo Game Show!!
I went out super early with Hannah Sunday to try and get tickets to the closed theater showing the FF13 videos but alas they were completely gone by the time we got there 30 minutes after the building opened ;A; Square Enix is such a fucking tight ass ;A; They didn't let you take a single picture of anything in their booth except for the life size Kingdom Hearts statues they've had for the past 3 years and a thing of Zack's buster sword in the ground. xAx They wouldn't even let you take pictures of the new FF7 potion cans that come out the 23rd of October. WTF dude everyone's gonna buy them anyway, don't be such a dick eater about it ;A; They closed their goods booth wicked early so I couldn't buy anything too. Fucking Squeenix, everybody involved with any of their games that were any good have left, why are they so high and mighty about simple things now? Especially only letting a limited amount of people who got there at the ass crack of dawn see any of the movies that are worth anything ;A; I wanna find Tetsuya Nomura and kick him in the balls.
But speaking of games they've made that were any good, they're remaking FF4 (again) in 3D with voices for the DS. Cecil sounds too young and totally gay and Kain sounds 300 years old.
BUT OH KAIN TAT I watched my dad's ex-girlfriend's son play all FF4 when I was 10 and since then I have had a massive crush on Kain because he's worth more than 800 Cecils ;A;
Huge picture warning!
