A summary of 2008

I started this yesterday, but there was a huge spider so I had to run and hide otherwise I would have died.

(That RHYMED!)


I will try to remember as much as I can. But sadly, it is before noon, so my memory is a bit faulty.


2008 started off with an uber-fun New Year's party with my friends~ We watched the 58th Kouhaku Uta Gassen and ran around the park at night. =D We're repeating it tomorrow, too~

Finals in January. I don't think I failed any...

I started my blog. =D

I slipped the guy I like a note that told him that I like him. And NOTHING CHANGED! xD

...What else?

I took and passed the CAHSEE (the exit exams).

I took Driver's Ed and Training and got my permit.

I successfully completed my Sophomore year.

Fanime was fun~

I turned 16 and went to Japan for a week.

I returned from the greatest country evar and did a whole bunch of homework. xD


I started my junior year.

I took the PSATs for the second time and didn't die as much.

I wrote a whole bunch of timed writes and DBQs in my AP classes.

I discovered the love of my life, group dubbing.

And I signed up for Fanime 2009. Number 1017!

Soooo close! Dx

(Leah got a number under 1000.... Lucky)


;D


Let's hope that 2009 is filled with H!P love~

I'm a neglectful bloggeeeeer

Let's see what you all have missed, shall we?

I had four tests the week before break. All on the same day. Dx

Physics first period, AP History third, Japanese Pre-final fifth, and a Physics retake after school.

So from... 7:30 to 1 I was constantly testing.

My brain was dead. =D

What else...?

On Friday we had a Christmas party for Anime Club. Nate came. x3 It was a lot of fun (but short). I thought my heart was going to burst, though. xD

Christmas came and went.

Here's what I got~


Chocolate
Ramune
"Christmas Soda". It's Swedish. And I do believe that's what beer tastes like. It was gross. And too fizzy.
$20 gift card to Barnes & Noble (I sold it to my parents. xD)
$50
$25
Earrings (my ears aren't pierced, though. My aunt thought that both my sister and I had pierced ears. I had my ears pierced once, though, in fifth grade. But I kept on getting infections because I was allergic to EVERYTHING so we just let them close up. And once the first ear closed, kids said that I looked like a boy with one earring so I let them both go. xD)
A guide to living in Japan (It has EVERYTHING I could ever need to know. It's awesome)
A DVD tour of Japan
A map of Japan
A how to draw manga kit that I received a variation of last year from the same person. xD The drawings are horrific, but it comes with free art supplies, so whatever. ;D)
The novel, Plum Wine
Chocolate coins
Jelly beans
Gilmore Girls Season 7
A webcam
A keyboard~


Yes, I gots a keyboard. x3 I'm just one step to an all girl band! =D

I just need to learn how to play it. =D


I also went and stayed in the Madonna Inn this weekend when I went to visit my grandmother.

It's very tacky. We stayed in the "Italy" themed room. Eesh.

Warning: Video Heavy

I may just kill Blogger with this. xD

Note: There have been, like, three Otaku Musume updates, but we made a new account and Hotaru only uploaded to a point.
