Sooo.....hi! I don't know if anyone even reads these anymore, which is kind of sad if you ask me, but I wish we could get our blogs all up and running again. Anyway, I guess I'll just update mine with the hopes that someone is still reading.

Life was pretty hectic this summer. I graduated as one of the top of my class, which was pretty cool I guess. I came home, and six days later, my father died. I'm still not over that, but I'm coping.

I spent the summer working 50+ hours a week and trying to squeeze in an hour or two a day to study for my CLA exam that I had to take in July. I freaked a lot about the exam, but I did end up passing it. XD

Now, I'm pretty much out of work, except for a small job of picking kids up from school and keeping them for a few hours a day. Nothing fancy. I'm looking for a job as a Paralegal/Legal Assistant, but nothing is coming my way. I'm also in the process of making the decision about Law School. I'm just waiting for the Ole Miss catalogue to come in the mall so that I can make my final decision.

Well, that is my life in the very short, condensed version. A lot of you have probably heard the long story, so I made it short here so you didn't have to read it all again. XD

Even though we don't all play the same games anymore, I hope we can all still stay in touch. You guys have been great friends to me, and I hope it stays that way. <3

Update

Well, the news is in! Chelsea has made a 94 on her Spanish final and has successfully aced every exam!

A's = LOVE

I so need to go drinking now!

Exams IHU

Geeze...I think I hate Spanish now. I took the final exam for it this morning (which wasn't as hard as I thought it would be), but when I tried to sell my Spanish text back, I ended up having to erase over twenty pages of writing from my Spanish workbook! I went through three pencils and part of one of those big eraser things trying to get everything erased. I think I gave myself carpal tunnel syndrome. My wrist was hurting so much! I did get some good monies for the book though! I was very pleased with that.





So, I made a 100 on my Civil Litigation final, 97 on my Criminal Law final, and a 100 on my Personal Finance final. Now, I'm just waiting for my Spanish final to get graded so that I can see what I made on it. I know that I have an A in every class except for Spanish. I don't know whether or not I'll have an A or a B for that class. I hope it's an A, because I'll have a perfect 4.0 from this Uni if it is.





I've started packing to go home, but there isn't much that I can pack this far ahead since I'm not even leaving until Saturday. I'm just so ready to get out of here, and the time is passing by so slowly. It's so unfair.





And speaking of unfair things: Angel, why didn't I get a nice message from you as well? Do you not miss this wifey as much as your other one? You're so mean. Maybe I shouldn't come spend time with you on WoW next week since you don't seem to want me anymore. =p





As for Pirates, I might come on tonight. I'll probably just play poker and listen to my podcasts since I can't do much else as a Basic Access member. I have a way to get Unlimited Access for one of my other accounts, but I really don't want to have to start over with the quests, so I probably won't worry about it. I've done those quests way too many time to start them over now.





And another sexy video for everyone:

Does Anyone Even Read This Anymore?

¡Hola!



I would use my nice spiffy Spanish skills to ask everyone how they are, but I can't find the upside down question mark in my character map, so I'll skip that right now.



I'm going back to BA in Pirates on May 2 at midnight, according to Pirates, so I guess I'll be spending my time playing poker (and stealing Arby's monies) until I can get UL again, which will be later this summer. I really, really want to finish my War Fleet, so I'll be working on that.



This summer, I'll probably be spending my time drifting between WoW and Pirates because I really miss Nells and Angel, but I'm also not going to abandon everyone on Pirates. I will be missing from both games a bit though because I have to spend the summer study for my CLA and LSAT exams. They're going to be tough, so most of my free time will go towards those two things.



Ugh, this is giving me a headache to type because I don't have my glasses on, so I'll just wrap this up. Hopefully I'll see everyone soon!



Oh, and this is such a hot video:

*Looks Sheepish*

Umm...hi!

So, I've kind of been missing for a while. Like two months, I think. Sorry about that. I've ocassionally checked the blogs, but I see that no one really posts on them anymore. That kind of makes me sad.

Well, the only excuse I've had for missing is that I don't have much time anymore. Not much of an excuse b/c my life has always been hectic, but it is the only excuse I have.

Pirates isn't really my thing anymore, but I did redownload it b/c I can't get WoW on my computer at school, and I do still want some type of interaction with my friends. I've been on twice today, but no one has come on at all...

So, this is mostly a post to say that I'm still alive and that I miss my Wifeys and Hubby. I hope to see you all again soon!

Life or Something Like It

I find that I have become irritatingly lazy in the past couple of days. All I can seem to do is watch movies, read or write. This doesn't really bother me because I love doing both of these, but there is so much more that I should be doing. I blame the fact that the air conditioner in my building went out. It's way too hot to do anything but lay around all day. So, in the past three days, I have written two stories, rediscovered my love for Japanese musicals and fallen in love with three different people. Okay, so I loved one of them already (this being the Japanese singer Kimeru), but the other two I found in musicals I have watched over and over, but yet have only just noticed the two. Want to know who I'm talking about? I'll show you...

This is Nagayama Takashi (AKA Nagayan). I have fallen in love with this boy's smile. Though, I couldn't find a picture of it to show everyone. Just know that his smile is the cutest thing in the world.

Persona numero dos es:

Tsuchiya Yuuichi (AKA Tuti). Reason I've fallen for him - his personality and his laugh. Lucky for me, these two have been in a couple of things together, so I get to see the other when I watch one of them.

And just because I want to add a picture of him, here's Kimeru!

Very small picture, I know, but it's all I have. Sooo, reasons why I love Kimeru...

For one thing, he's an awesome singer. I love his voice so much. Another thing, even though he's only 5'2, he can be the scariest person I've ever seen. Ah, that reminds me. Here's the song of the day! It's 'With You' by Kimeru:

So, I've decided that I love yoga. It's just so fun, and I never knew that I was so flexible. XD Though, it would be better if my arm strength was a bit better. My arms have always been weak. In high school, I could leg press 150 during softball training, but I could only bench press 15...most of my arm weakness comes from the tendonitis that I had in my shoulder, elbow, and wrist three times. I can't even pull myself up on a horse anymore because of it, and I have to wear a brace anytime I play sports. I forgot my brace at home when I took tennis at school, so I've messed it up more because I was too cheap to buy another one. Mou...what do I need a good arm for anyway? Classes are going well, Yoga and (surprisingly) Spanish IV being my favorites. Civil Litigation is so dry that I want to strangle the professor. Criminal Law is almost as dry, but at least I like the professor. Though, this is putting me off of wanting to go to Law School completely. Saa, that's basically my life at the moment. Now, I'm going back to listening to Kimeru as I play Mahjong Masquerade. I also just finished downloading a musical, so I'll probably go watch that at some point in time or another.

What Does It Mean?

In the past couple of days, I find myself thinking of suicide more and more often. Not in a killing myself way, but in a philosophical way. So, I decided to sit down and write out what I think suicide means to see if that will help my thoughts any.

To me, suicide is giving up nothing and everything. At that one moment in time, it may seem like a person has nothing at all - and that may be true - so they kill themselves. Yes, I know that might not be why people kill themselves, but bear with me here. But at the same time someone kills themselves because they have nothing, they are giving up the possibility that they might have everything. Still not making myself clear? Let me explain...

The person committing suicide gives up what might (and could) be in the future. Any chance of future love, happiness, sadness, friendship, employment, success...you get my point, right?

I know that I have my moments of suicidal depression (everyone probably does), but I'm going to try and remind myself of what I should live for when I have these moments. I should live for what I can't have if I kill myself.

I can have anything I want, but I have to work for it. There will be times I just want to give up and end things, I know, but I should stick it out - if only to see what will become of me - and I'll try my best to do so.
