Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!

[BionicleMandi121]

Heso! Two badges in to Pokemon White, Colly's just as far into Black. This city is freaking huge, man. Finally a city that looks like a city! But I have to wonder... on those streets where there are always a bunch of people running around... where the heck do they come from? And where do they go? Are they all running in circles, just to make the place look busier? I don't understand...

I'm sure they're all just too lost in that huge town to find where they live, so they just wander around. /o/

Konbanwa. Portfolio's finally in and I can finally relax. :D
Sorta.
Now I get to do catch-up work on my classes that I've skipped for 1-2 weeks in order to work on that portfolio. \o\
Art is serious business. o3o

Hi! Great, I've got a month and a half or more of listening to everyone talk about how much further they are in B&W than me (since my copy is in the US and all)... Hope you guys have fun though. I'm still trying to clear the hardest song in Project Diva on hard mode. I got excellent rankings on all the other songs in the game but I can't even clear this one. Maybe I should just give up and move on...

[Cheezdude]

I probably spent an hour in the big city just trying to find everything. My team is Smugleaf's evolution and the electric zebra, both Lv. 25. No problem so far.

Moi,

Gah! Why didn't I pre-order a copy of Pokemon White!? One of my friends already has 2 or 3 gym badges already...Oh well...at least I'm consistant! I still haven't gotten Pokemon Soul-Silver yet! I always seem to be 1 or 2 years behind everyone else when it come to video games, and I'm at least 20 or 30 years behind most people when it comes to music. (Yay for 80's and 90's kids in the 2010's!)

Anyway, working on getting some lines on this doodle paper done so I can get a decent copy of it. It's time like these when I almost wish I was a right hander. *looks at side of left hand covered in graphite dust* Yeah....

[Saber Knight]

Hey.

Yeah, it usually takes me like a year to catch up with the pokemon games... exception being Heart Gold because I was excited for that one because Gold was my first pokemon game. I got that one a few months after it came out, right about when all my other friends conveniently got it :P

Uhmmm so yeah... really busy... and facing a tough decision that I'm still not sure what to do, or if I even have the option.... I'm really hoping it works out but I feel like it won't.

I'm right-handed, and the side of my hand still gets covered in graphite. So don't worry about being left handed, I think it happens to everyone. /o/
If it really bothers you, though, fold a piece of tissue paper or something similar and stick it under your hand. I usually don't bother, since graphite comes off really easily compared to, say, oil paint or charcoal. But recently I had to avoid smearing stuff on a drawing that was completely graphite, so yeah, it came in handy.

Konnichiwa. I didn't get my copy of White yet either, but I will...eventually... /o/
Faustgy was showing me her copy of Black. The graphics look purty~

[Metalheadz]

Hey!

Done with posting for tonight. It's time to do homework now, which won't be very fun... After that, I'll go and pick up my guitar and shred a little. It's been a pretty good Monday, actually, and I'm quite happy at the moment. No sign of trouble for me tonight, thank goodness. Peace out!

Some more different words \o\

I imagine this: Thing

Also, lol Cheesey still calling the grass starter Smugleaf. Ya gonna call Oshawott 'Wotter', too? Sooo behind the times.

...But I also think most of the names this generation are terrible, so I shouldn't talk... Eelectric. Let's see how uncreative we can be! also Herdier and Gurdurr... They have Derp built right into them... Maybe that's just me?

Mandi, I blame you for ruining those emoticons for me forever. ;D Your fault for using both in the same post~

Ahem. 'Ello. I'm having a blast with Black, which is kind of surprising. I didn't expect much from it, but...it's so addicting right now. I really should be doing homework...

At least it's an awesome way to ruin those emoticons, admit it. /o/

Konbanwa. Considering turning my perspective homework into a piece of fanart. Not gonna make it any easier to do, but at least it'd be more fun. 8D'

[Neo Zanther]

Hi.

Ya, I'm not as impressed with the names of pokemon. They seem to be running out of imagination. The pokemon themselfs are still nice :)


My problem is how am i going to evolve Conkeldurr since my router isn't suppored by the DS and I can't find a hotspot that supports it to save my life. And I'm not planing on buying Black til near the end of the month or early April. I might have a chance Saturday but that's a long time to have it in it's 2nd stage. And I don't know anyone else with the game.

[Saber Knight]

Hey.

So, what I was hoping wicked hard for... it all fell through. What happened is that the day of regionals for DI and the day of semi's for Fest (since we won at prelims) fell on the same day... March 19th. Which also happens to be my birthday. Huh.

Anyway, when we learned we were moving on, my first thought was YAAAAAAAAAAAY and my immediate next thought was "crap. This makes everything really complicated." I had a mild breakdown when I was freaking out about there being no way I could possibly make both since I have my central challenge at 11:40 and my Instant Challenge is at 3 and that's so spread out and we didn't know where semi's would be and at what time and we didn't even know if I could get waived for DI because you have to be at Fest all day... it was a mess. Anywho, we learned yesterday where Fest was going to be and at what time. Answer: 4 and about 50 minutes from Regionals. I was devastated. Also pissed off because our DI regionals have to be at freaking TRITION HIGH which is FURTHER from us than CHS... WHY COULDN'T WE BE IN THE REGION FOR CHS THAT JUST MAKES NO SENSE!? If it were at CHS, it would only be 15 mins from Semis! Triton is in the OPPOSITE DIRECTION from Semis... you'd have to drive through my town to get from one to the other. It killed me, because Triton is like 25 mins from home and so is semis... in COMPLETE opposite directions. That just HAD to happen.

So, we tried to see if we could get my Instant Challenge moved up an hour. We looked through the schedule for DI and we found that the appraisers were on their break at 2, so we tried to see if our team could go then and have their break later........ and I just learned about two hours ago that that didn't work. Which means I'm done. For good.

I'd already talked to my director about it, and she was surprisingly nice and considerate about it. She was as monotonous as usual, but she usually doesn't act like she cares for anyone... but she was really, really nice about it. Probably because when I talked to her about it after prelims, my face was still red from crying, and she saw that I was clearly upset about this whole conflict. Anyway, she said that she hated to do this, but she'd just have to recast my roles... which kills me a bit inside, but it has to be done. I mean... I've been with those roles for a couple months, and to suddenly hand them over to someone else after being through so much? It's weird, and it sucks, and I hate it, and I still haven't quite come to grips with it. I'm still planning on attending rehearsals because it would just be weird not to considering how much I've been through.

I'm still clinging onto the small hope that we place at semis and move on to finals... because then I'd be able to attend. It's extremely unlikely... but... I just feel awful that I can't follow this play all the way through... I'm wicked upset about it, and it's awful because I LOVE DI and it sucks to be upset about it.

Greetings,

That really is unfortunate (politest way I can put it) Saber, I hope it all ends up working out for you. I've had similar things happn to me but not as bad, mainly work or going out somewhere, unfortunatly work generally won... (missed my grandmother's 70th birthday, sure it wasn't that big of a deal. Except for the fact that she's lived overseas my whole life. And was actually in the same county, an hour away from where I was.)

Anyways I made a cake, and Black and White come out in 2 days (technically a day and a half) here, the excitments kindda died, but knowing me I'll be attached to Black once I get it... if I'm not distracted by anything else that is...

[Josiah]

Hi! That's too bad, Saber. But yeah, there are times when life just loves to ruin you schedule. It's certainly happened to me a few times as well.

Looks like I'm officialy not staying on at Narashino Junior High for the next school year. I did get a good recommendation from my company and the Narashino Board of Education but, as my coordinator said, the contract just isn't very good so I turned it down. If I moved to a reasonably priced apartment without walking or biking distance from the school (and bit the bullet with the moving fees) and never really went anywhere other than work and Saturday services...I'd probably manage to break even. So yeah... I lost a bit of money on my last stay in Japan and this one as well but I've had my fun and I'm 26 now. I need a job where I'm actually making a reasonable amount of money.

Also, lol Cheesey still calling the grass starter Smugleaf. Ya gonna call Oshawott 'Wotter', too? Sooo behind the times.

No, I'm going to call it "Mijumaru."

...Conkeldurr...

That's all I have to say. Conkeldurrrrrrrrrrr....

So, I just realized I never beat the Elite Four on Pokemon Pearl. I don't remember how long I've had that game, but I helped start an official Pokemon League in our campus and have been a substitute in competitions before, and I haven't noticed until now. I feel a bit silly. Ah well. I have something to do until I decide I want to buy Black. (It looks awesome, but I have to work this semester because my classes are ridiculous.)

Oh! It's KotF time, isn't it? I should post a lot... Or I could do that philosophy paper... Heh, Conkeldur...
