okay, this is for hammy. she may have seen it, but i don't care. remember that fat numa numa dance guy? you know, the one hammy has the hots for. (seriously.) anyway, i just saw this flash animation of him on american idol. the flash versions of the contestants are amusing (PIGGY!!), and so is paula. >D anyway, yeah. watch it.

i promise i'll have some actual blog content sometime this century. i might even talk about my vancouver trip! *gasps*

i haven't bought it yet. i completely forgot that it was being released. honestly, i thought it was being released in a couple months. x_x

and, er, this is very bad timing. i have a bit of money to spend, but i'm not sure if i can afford my anime dvds that i want and the sims 2 nightlife. see, i was going to order the black rose saga box set of utena at the same time as i ordered the next kodocha dvd (to be released at the beginning of october). sooo… that's like $100 right there. but if i spend $50 now on this sims EP, it might be slightly problematic come october. :( maybe i should live dangerously and just go and buy the EP. >:D but i don't really play the sims as much as before. even now that my internet is still down, the only one who's been playing the sims is my sister. x_x i've just been too busy. for example, today i have to go directly from school to work. and i work till 10:00pm. fun, eh? -_-

and i'm moving tomorrow. i haven't packed a thing. and i work from 8 to 5. somehow i have to move in that time period. somehow i have to have my stuff packed before then. but, uh, i won't be home until 10:00pm tonight. this is what i get for being the procrastinator i am.

i got a haircut yesterday. it's half the length. i'm having a bad hair day today though. :( stupid hair.

uhhh, oh, i brought a couple screenshots from my sister's sims. she's been doing some freaky stuff that i simply have to share.

here is the american idol season four top five. left to right: anthony, bo, carrie, piggy, and the vonz. you may not be able to tell from a crappy little picture, but they turned out rather well. i'm in awe. @_@

this is what my sister does when she decides she doesn't want a baby anymore. it doesn't work, of course, but you can't blame her for trying. >D

and that's it. i mentioned american idol. i feel obligated to mention canadian idol. it ended this week. that girl (melissa?) from calgary won. i officially lost interest in the show a few weeks ago. what a sucky season. i wonder if i'll watch it next year. if i still feel the same way… chances are i won't.

i think i'm going to go stare at my bank balance and contemplate if i should go buy the new sims EP or not. in the mean time, i have 50 minutes to eat something before philosophy. i wonder if i have time. >_>

the minute you give the shoe back to hammy… she goes and gets park place and boardwalk. what a loser. :( poor jbeth and i.

okay, this is where i blog about actual stuff. it's super late and i have to be at work in less than five hours (omg x_x). why am i always up late like this? gotta make this as short as possible… but we all know that isn't going to happen…

let's see what i had on my checklist…

hair. okay… so i said i was going to go get it cut, didn't i? i decided to actually do it up nicely since i was going to the mall (and i didn't want the hairdresser to think i was a slob either), and then i started playing with it… and yeah… i started thinking to myself, "i kind of like it like this…" >_> so i didn't get it cut. i took a picture instead…

(more…)

oh well… i like carrie, but i don't know if i'll buy her album. i'll buy bo's probably. i'll give both albums a quick listen before i buy either. i'm happy for carrie though. she pulled a kelly clarkson. which is why i knew she'd win. she was never in the bottom three ever. i'm glad i didn't miss the end of the finale. i got home at 10:45, and the show ends at 11:00. x_x

canadian idol starts next week. >D i love how it immediately starts up after american idol. i can't wait to see all the bad auditions! *_*!!!

i finished training the two new people we got at work. yay. x_x the one used to work at a bakery, but not one of ours. so she knows how to do a lot of stuff already. i trained her on saturday. the other… knows nothing. and i trained her on sunday. and tonight. she got two days of training. @_@ just goes to show you how much she needed it. i wasn't supposed to work tonight at all, but i agreed to help train her more. i, myself, was worried about how she'd handle doing the evening shift alone. x_x so i was happy to do it. more money for me. :D i'm not sure how much i like her. she's nice, and all, and she says she enjoys working with me a lot (more than everyone else, in fact). i'm always nice to everyone, so of course she's going to say that. she likes talking about really personal stuff, though. @_@ like… i've worked with her twice now and she's asking me things like, "so what's your girlfriend like?" x_x;;;;; i made the -_- face. we just don't talk about personal stuff like that at my job. i now know more stuff about her than i do about all the other people in the department combined. x_x which is crap i don't want to know about. and she's kinda slow… so i hope she doesn't get fired or anything. she can do it, though, if she concentrates.

i got an email saying my payment for my domain was cancelled. but i didn't receive anything telling me to fill out any new information. o_O so i'm waiting on that… any day now… my domain might be gone in a few days if that happens. @_@

i'm listening to the sugarcubes. :D "birthday" is playing right now. this song is really bad. it's so… weird and wrong. child molestation, or something? why don't i post the lyrics. :D i don't really have much else to say, so i'll end on that. :D if anyone wants me to send them the song, i'd be more than happy to. :D

(more…)

ROFLMAO! there's a part of me that wishes that i hadn't blocked that guy from accessing my domain because we could all tell him off for being such a jackass and going off about how scott's not going anywhere and he has insider information about how american idol is rigged and all that crap. but idiots like that don't admit they were wrong (even when it's that blatent) and i don't want to hear his excuses. i'm just happy that piggy's FINALLY gone and the final four are the four that i love the most out of all the people so far. *_*! it's going to be hard seeing three of them voted out. ;_; if i had to choose, i'd pick anthony to go next, then the vonz, then carrie.

i'm rooting for bo like you don't know. x_x vonzell really surprised me… i didn't expect that i'd like her, but she's not bad. *_* anthony's really talented, but we already have a clay aiken. :( and he sings certain types of songs really badly. if he can't sing loud and powerful for half the song it doesn't seem right with him. still love the guy, and i know kley's going to kill me when she reads this. >D

then there's carrie. i'm almost scared to hear what her album will be like. of course she'll release one. she hasn't been in the bottom three ever, unlike everyone else. she reminds me of kelly clarkson in some ways like that. except… country. x_x if anyone would make me love country music it would be carrie. this is a rare thing. i really love it when she sings the bad girl songs. >_> that pat benatar song from the songs-from-the-year-you-were-born week. <_< *fans self* she probably will release a country album when this is all said and done, though, so that's probably why i'm not rooting for her to win. x_x not that there's anything wrong with that… i do want her to make it far enough for her to be guaranteed an album in the near future.

which reminds me… where is diana degarmo!? >D NO WHERE! she was really sucky, and everyone knew it. not that fantasia's any better, but this is a first for american idol second place people. usually they come out with something by now.

before i forget, i must comment on my cds that i got a little while ago. they both kind of let me down a bit. just a bit! not a lot, so it's no big deal, really.

kelly clarkson's second album is a bit… repetative. x_x half the songs have the same message in them, in some shape or form: "i broke up with my boyfriend and boy am i mad about it." but that's okay. they're great songs. and the live beautiful disaster track is great. i didn't even know what was going to be on there until i went to listen to it. still, it's a pretty good album and one can't get enough kelly.

theresa sokyrka's debut album wasn't all i was hoping for. i love her jazzyness in all its scatty glory, but all the tracks except for three are covers. songs she sang from the show, in fact. i thought maybe there'd be one or two covers tops, but it's the majority of the album. i totally will not hold that against her though! they didn't release a canadian idol season two cd!!! (which i am so mad about!) so i don't blame her for doing the covers she did! pretty much all of her fans are from the canadian idol fanbase, so it's nice to hear her sing the songs she sang on the show. i'm just glad the entire cd wasn't covers. i hope she does really well in the future, too, because i'm sure her second album will have more original content.

also, she's touring! she'll be in edmonton in june (can't remember the day) at the winspear centre (best acoustics in town!). i'm planning on going, but not alone. :P so if anyone wants to come with me, feel free to let me know. i think i'll take my sister either way. just in case people flake out on me. >:P

canadian idol starts up very soon. i can't wait. *_*;

okay, whoever you are, miss florida person, you should really stop commenting like that. as amusing as you are you're starting to get annoying. this is not a chat. this is a blog. it's where i can write about whatever i want… not for people to come along and throw whatever tantrum or criticism my way about what i write. the comments aren't forums, nor are they a chat. so, please, just shut up. i don't even know why i need to acknowledge you. and, um, missy… i've known venuswillow for years. don't you dare make fun of her or any of my other friends who check my blog. and the same goes for my country. don't even go there. -_-;;;

and who do you think you are? "Dont look at the internet before you watch A.I." um… first of all, my internet is DOWN… any chance i have to get online i'll take. secondly, the last place i expect to be spoiled for shows is on my blog, so i don't avoid it like that. i don't go onto american idol sites or message boards on wednesdays, or something.

oh, and if you ever comment again i'm banning your IP address from accessing my domain.

seriously… every year there's some big american idol drama on blogs involving random immature people. last year it was on kley's… i guess since her blog is down/gone it's my turn.

we're at the arcade at the mall now, sis and i. we went to all the stores we wanted to. i bought theresa sokyrka's debut album. *_* she got second in canadian idol if you don't remember me mentioning it. she was the one i wanted to win. i'm so glad she has an album out. *_* i hope it does really well. i also bought kelly clarkson's second album (i've been putting it off for some reason). i also saw this bjk tribute album by some string orchestra or something? o_O i really wanted it but it was $30. x_x and i saw a sugarcubes album that i need to get still that was $31. X_X not fair! and, yes, nicki, i know all about the army of me mix charity album. i haven't seen it appear in any stores here yet, but i can't wait to buy it. one of tracks is done by a canadian group even (track one i think?). i hear it's really hardcore… *_*

*goes to play the drum game*

http://www.kodocha.tv

did you guys know it was licensed? i did, and it's taking them forever and a day for them to release it. but that's not surprising considering there's 102 episodes and all. i'm rather amused that the first dvd will be out right before AX. so it'll be new and hawt and they'll probably show it and it's made its way onto my list of stuff i'm putting off buying until i go down there. -_- i need:

- utena dvds (the box sets are cheaper than i thought @_@)
- kodocha dvds
- puni puni poemi (maybe… still think about this one, and it'll probably end up being an impulsive purchase anyway)
- shinesman (not for me -_- though i will probably watch it)
- seramyu anza box set 2. maybe the miyuki box set if that's out by then. we'll see.

$_$!!!!!!! i think i'm going to call kley tomorrow and see what's going on with her. because, um, she's clearly not around. and i feel kind of bad looking for flights for her (she's so screwed >D she either has to leave a few hours before we do from orange county's JOHN WAYNE airport, or she's got an extremely long overnight flight that leaves after us at LAX). hey lbeth, how long will we be doing con stuff on the last day? not very long, right? because if kley's flight leaves at 5pm, we need to do our other stuff as early as possible i think. x_x

i find it so amusing how we're planning kley's vacation for her. and she doesn't even know it. we don't even know if she's coming for sure yet. if she doesn't we'll be so mad. :( must call her tomorrow…

and i'm sure she'll get a kick out of reading all this when she finally gets online. >:P

ohohoh, that reminds me. american idol. top twelve stuff is finally going to happen next week! you can see who they are here. i don't really have a favourite this year, which is odd. i'm sort of pulling for bo bice, but it's not like i'm rabidly going "OMFG BO BETTER WIN THIS WEEK HE IS SOOOOOOOOO GOOD OMFGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!11111" and i guess i kind of like anthony federov. nadia turner's pretty good too. mikalah gordon can be annoying, but she's okay. same with constantine maroulis. i guess i can't pick anyone because of past experience. sort of a subconcious thing. because my picks always get voted out. in every reality show ever. last season of american idol… she was so close. :( second. but that's okay. but if there's anyone i was passionate about from the beginning in this season's american idol it would be…

scott savol. where do i even begin? week after week i was shocked that he was even making through. honestly. i can't STAND to even look at him. i am utterly shocked he is in the top twelve. so much so that when he made it through i screamed out "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!" every single time. i'm going to have to get projectiles to throw at the tv soon like kley does. a water bottle… anything. he's not THAT great of a singer. everyone else in this is better than he is. and it makes me mad that if this season actually turns out pretty good, i'll probably buy the album. and his ugly face will be on the cover. and i'll have to look at it every time i listen to that cd. maybe nadia's hair will be covering it. >:D one can only dream. -_-

okay, enough about that. i need to eat, shower, and go to work. >_< last day of work for the weeeeeeeek! and survivor/apprentice is on tonightttttt! yayyyyyyy!

p.s. i did get those mp3s overnight. yay for me. *_* no time to listen to them now though. :(

no work today!! yayyyy! i slept in until 3:00pm. ;) yay for me. ;)

is anyone else actually excited for next week's guest judge on american idol? i am, and that's a first. gene simmons…without the makeup!! i hope he tells everyone off like simon does. that'd be great. but if he's just another paula… whatever, screw him. i hate when guest judges do that.

ummm, yeah, so i got bored and i started downloading some more anime, lol. someone told me about a show that has a ferret in it. @_@ no, not shamanic princess, because we all know there's a ferret in that, but a different show called magical girl lyrical nanoha. hehe, sounds really cheezy, eh? it kind of is, but i don't care. it actually reminds me of a lot of shows. o_o it's kind of a cross between sailor moon, card captor sakura, and magic knight rayearth, i think. and the animation is interesting. at first it looked pretty average, but there's one scene in the first episode where they used 3d really well, and i started having flashbacks to blood: the last vampire. @_@ they used the shaky-camera technique which looks really good in 2d animation, i think. >_> oh, the description on animenfo.com says that she meets a boy who changes into a small animal. well, that small animal is a ferret. *_* and this show is shaping up to be horribly monster-of-the-day-ish, complete with drawn out transformation sequences, and such. >D i love it. speaking of transformation sequences, the one in this show is rather revealing. @_@ just to show that she goes completely nude, she first loses her clothes, but not her underwear! then she loses her underwear… just so that we can see that she went nude. and she's not "glowing" or anything either. *dies repeatedly* X_X and there was a panty shot in the first episode (other than the transformation *dies*). makes me wonder what kind of audience this show would have received. @_@;;; she's in grade three, for crying out loud. ohohoh, and i noticed that nanoha's big brother's seiyuu is also FY's tamahome, SM's fiore, and utena's mikage. >D you know, that guy. but, honestly, what shows has that guy NOT been in??

so, yeah, i'll download a few more episodes tonight. it's not even done being subbed, so maybe i won't watch it all too fast. it's only thirteen episodes. @_@

and now i think i need to play maplestory, even though it's friday p.m. and all the kiddies will be playing through the night. -_- i hate playing this game on weekends, i swear. some guy offered to buy my panlid for a blue split piece, white split pants, and "some money". -_-;;; i laughed in his face and cancelled the trade. why do i even accept those anyway?

i'm happy that i just watched the first episode of american idol 4. it was hilarious, and i nearly peed myself laughing at most of those freaks. especially that last girl with the voices in her head. holy crap, she was great.

i'm happy that the amazing race is on now! in fact, the theme song is playing.

i'm happy that i have a ton of stuff that i've downloaded to watch and read.

i'm mad that i won't be able to start watching/reading them for another hour because i'm watching the amazing race.

i'm mad that i don't have the time to play maplestory with the others these days. my hours got extended a little bit for my days this week, and while that's all fine and dandy, i don't have time to do everything i want. :(

i'm mad that i have a panlid. every bloody person and their dog stops and asks me where i got it, what its def is, how much it's worth, and if i'll give it to them (or sell it to them for 8k). i hate them. i get one an hour it seems. -_-

i'm mad that jonathan and victoria are still in the game. i'm mad that hayden and aaron weren't eliminated. i'm mad that jon and kris are falling behind.

i'm happy that it's back on, and i'm shocked that they're all pronouncing "nice" correctly (you know, the place in france). okay, i have to press the publish button now. :)

*edits* SOMEBODY KILL KENDRA.

i got my amazon order today. finally. i placed the order at the beginning of april. the screwtape letters is a much smaller book than i was expecting. i should be able to finish it relatively quickly when i get around to starting it. and i'm just glad i have oh my goddess! volume two. i tried watching the whopping two episodes on the $26 dvd, but i fell asleep in the middle of the first (actually, the fourth) episode. i ended up just watching the funny skuld ending theme again and playing my sax to stay awake. >_> of course, i watched a bit of j2 today, as well. guess what. i was wrong. otome is in it!!! and her followers!! they made, like, a five second appearance, but still!!! i, like, shat my pants when i saw her. i was so happy. ;_; and guess what. she's still after shiro. and by "after" i mean she's spying on him continuously while complaining about how she'll make him hers one of these days. speaking of shiro, it looks like he's turned into the main comic relief of the show (along with the unrefined, of course). i think shiro is crappily drawn about 95% of the time. it's great. >D and the scary paper man is back. he is so back. X_X more than ever. X_X and he talks. X_X in russian. X_X; oh, and the subtitling isn't so bad, actually. it's getting slowly better, i think. it's mainly just absolutely confusing grammar issues, unlike my ceres dvds which are beyond comprehension of any kind. i kind of like the new ending theme, too. nothing can replace "forever" but this one isn't bad at all. of course they kept the bike theme for the visuals. they added in a few new people for that, too. :D and, omg, jiyu blew the koinosuke whistle in one of the episodes i watched. *runs away without telling anyone what happened* line break time…

i taped american idol last night. i have yet to watch it. i don't care about diana. i don't care about fantasia. i don't care about bobo. i don't care about randy, paula, or simon. and it'd be sad if i watched the show just to watch ryan seacrest. yeah.

canadian idol starts next tuesday. thank goodness for that. -_- *amused that it simply replaces american idol* :D i'm not, however, looking forward to ben frickin' mulroney. -_-; i hate that guy. -_-;;; and, omg, i also just found out that my younger stepsister tried out for canadian idol, but didn't make it past the first audition. but she says she had a camera follow her around, or something, so she might be on tv. *_* omg, you know what that means? she could be the next william hung. except not butt ugly.

and i found out what's wrong with my sax. i have a sticky pad (a really small one that's kind of hidden) that isn't lifting up on its own. and it needs to be in order to play c-sharp right. blah. -_- and i also just realized today that it's affecting my octave key. >:O i have to find a way to unstick sticky pads. blah.

okay, i have stuff to do. for real.
