Currently Watching: Adult Swim - "Full Metal Alchemist"
IRL
To start things off, as of 10:43 a.m., September 24, I am officially 19 years old. Farewell my fleeting adolescence. Hello responsibility, maturity, and making a living. Those last three have been hanging around for the last few years anyway. Freeloaders. I should get rent. My birthday presents consisted of $100 and a birthday bonus on my next paycheck. Not much, ne? I am so beat. What an exhausting last two days. My internet went kaput around 2:30 p.m. yesterday. I didn't figure out how to get it back online til 6:30 this morning. Work was heck today. Nice and slow the first three hours. Busy, busy, busy the last two. A 19 year old working only 5 hours? Yep, I haven't got a full-time job yet. I'll look into it later. ~Yawn~ Well, I just watched "Corpse Bride". I would like to dub it an "unorthodox fairytale". It's pretty short, with a simple storyline. Not too humorous, although there were some people who couldn't stop laughing behind us, so I guess it's funny to some. The music wasn't bad and probably would've been more enjoyable if I wasn't so beat. Whoa, cool. No pun intended there. Hehe. My lovey-dovey romance, chick-flick side totally dug the romantic schticks. Speaking of which, not much on action sequences. There is one thing I absolutely LOVE about this movie: the way it was designed. I find Emily (the Corpse Bride) to be the loveliest woman in the movie. Victoria (the Living Bride) paled in comparison. Call me sick. Call me perverse. That's what I think. ^^ I would love to use her in my sig or as an avatar. Plus, she had the "Ghostly Maiden" effect down. -_^ The environment and character design, especially on the undead, were absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to rip apart the DVD.
Animal Crossing
Maria of Twilight Town and Dawn Island
Well, the 23rd was the Sports Fair and I was able to attend all of them for once. ^^ In aerobics Chuck the moose, Kitty the cat, Roald the penguin, and Anchovy the songbird were warming up. For the foot race, Aurora the penguin held shotgun and the competitions were Pierce the raptor Vs. Kitty the cat, and Anchovy the songbird Vs. Mint the squirrel. In ball toss, Pierce the raptor played cheerleader, er...judge, with Aurora the penguin and Lulu the hippo Vs. Roald the penguin and Kitty the cat. Finally, Cyrano the anteater and Roald the penguin Vs. Baabara the sheep and Aurora the penguin, with Chuck playing flag-moose. Considering these stats, I award the Most Enthusiastic Athletes Trophy to Roald the penguin and Kitty the cat, which just happens to be the first male and female animals I met in Twilight.
Today was my birthday, so Lulu dropped by and gave me Donkey Kong. ^^
Neopets
GhostlyMaiden and her pets IllusionaryShadow, UndyingHope, Niomyony, and Glena4.
Normally, I don't count this since it's pretty routine. However, neopets is having a "plot" right now and I'm actually up to speed for once. Our current situation is to dig up the sand covering the scroll repository, so we can find a way to restore Sakhmet (I wonder if Qasala is going to be a new world). All my pets are slow, so I can only dig once every three hours which is another reason why I was a little ticked about the internet going offline yesterday. Apparently, someone had been able to dig up a Lost Desert Paint Brush, which is worth over 1 MILLION NEOPOINTS on the market. If I manage to dig one up, I'm gonna use it on Shadow. If by some miracle I can dig up a second one as well I'll use it on Hope. If there's anymore after that, then I'll set it up for trade. ^^ Three words I have to repeat to myself: In My Dreams. ~Sigh~ At least they're beautiful dreams. ^^
Wow, I've been typing this up for the last 1.5 hours, and now it's past midnight. Oh my head. Night y'all.
