Thoughts at the End of 2009

Yeah. This is going to be the last blog post I make in 2009, sadly enough xD This year's ending, and I'm sad. Not because I'm afraid of future or something of that nature... But... The end of 2009 means the back-to-school day is getting closer and closer! And I don't miss school -- yet!

Well... I guess I'd better say the things I want to say than ranting nonsense xD I have to get these things out of my head before the New Year!

Memorable Things I've Done or Experienced in 2009:
~(1 January) I applied to the 6th Division on BleachAnime.org Forums for the second time, after getting rejected on December 2008.
~(2 January) I got accepted in the 6th Division mentioned above by (usernames) Shorty(-taichou of that time) and Fajitasforme(-fukutaichou of that time), thanks to (usernames) HaiLun who recommended me into joining and Electric-Senbonzakura who reminded me not to play in the Forum Games too often and improve the quality of my posts instead! :D
~(7 October) One year of me being on BleachAnime.org Forums! I've had lots of fun during the year!
~(August - November) Very memorable rehearsals for my school's 10th birthday. Thanks to these rehearsals, we have lesser lessons than we're supposed to!
~(20 November) My school's 20th birthday. Both the evening and night shows were awesome, and I had lots of fun. It's also the end of my fun days...
~(21 December) Ukitake Juushirou (BLEACH)'s birthday. Also one year of (FFN penname) VraieEsprit's epical story Meifu's Gate (Prequel - Second Manuscript - Third Chronicle ). Also one year of me reading her stories xD
And oh, I guess I just can't remember anymore... D:

And then... My hopes and wishes for the coming year 2010:
~I hope I'm not getting fatter after this holiday so my blue uniform skirt will still fit me! It's getting small already... I don't know what to wear if it doesn't fit me anymore after the holidays D:
~I hope we'll eat more and more and more sushi in 2010! I'm missing that food!

My New Year's resolutions (or try-to-dos):
~Aim for all A's, at least for the remainder of my grade 9 days
~Study harder D:
~Aim for an A in piano as well
~Practice piano harder
~Do more work-outs
~Do my best and try to be accepted in one of the most famous and best girls' school in this city. Not that I'm actually interested in that school, though... I'm just thinking about my future! D: Screw future xD

Well I thought I had more on the list, but apparently I've forgotten most of them. An early Happy New Year to you all, and wish you have a wonderful year ahead! Sayounara! :D

Anime and Classic Songs

People say that if we want to play songs well in any instruments, we gotta have imagination, we gotta feel the song's feeling and/or we gotta imagine a story. Sometimes, in order to get the feeling of the songs, I imagine anime characters... Or even a pairing... xD Here's several songs I imagine with anime only when I'm playing it:

~Bach Well-Tempered Clavier II no 20 Prelude -- RenRuki (Renji and Rukia) from BLEACH (1st song of the vid)
~Chopin Fantasie-Impromptu op 66 -- Tsuchiura Ryoutarou from Kin'iro no Koruda a.k.a La Corda D'Oro
~Bach Well-Tempered Clavier II no 14 Prelude -- RoyAi (Roy and Riza) from Full Metal Alchemist (also the first song in the vid)

Yeah, I know I'm crazy, especially with the pairings, cuz there's no real reason why I imagine them with the song xD I only have a reason for Ryoutarou and Fantasie-Impromptu. It's because Ryoutarou was the one who motivated me to learn Fantasie-Impromptu xD After seeing him playing that song in La Corda, I became interested and learnt to play that song by myself.

There are several other songs that I imagine stories with, but they aren't anime or movies or books, just my weird imagination... xD Like Grieg's Cradle Song and Debussy's Passepied (I'm not playing the latter, it's my brother, but it's an awesome song and "magical").

Coffee and Unagi

Though I'm a big fan of tea, I also like coffee and once I start, usually I can't stop and I would be confused why my cup of coffee be empty xD Well, not that I drink coffee that often, I still like it! :D

And I miss eating unagi, too... I don't remember what was the last time I ate unagi sushi or unagi bento or something like that, it's probably 3 or 4 months ago... Not that long, there are food that I've not eaten for a longer time than that (for example, macaroni and cheese >.>), but when we go to shopping for supplies, there's this restaurant which had a big picture of Unagi Don and we'd pass it whenever we go home from shopping. That what makes me miss unagi even more...

So this'd be my first wish for 2010: I want to go drinking coffee again (something I haven't done this month) and eat unagi related food! xD

Merry Christmas! :D

Merry Christmas to all of you, everyone out there, who's reading or not reading my blog post(s)... :P

Weirdly enough, though today is INDEED Christmas, it doesn't feel like one. We don't set the Christmas tree this year... And we don't have the present exchange, either... I don't know why, but this year seems so busy that my brother and I didn't even buy presents. I got an orange watch to replace my old one (which was broken), but I had worn it daaaays before Christmas because I feel weird without wearing a watch. We don't go anywhere, either, we just stay home the whole day... I slept a lot, too, so it feels like another day of the holiday...

Well, whatever, I know everything sounds weird x3, but have a wonderful Christmas whoever and wherever you are! xD

December (and Full Metal Alchemist)

December is supposed to be a month of happiness and cheerfulness and Christmas, but in reality... It brings much more than mere happiness! O.O

Never mind. I don't know what drove me to type that before.. >.>

But I kinda agree with the statement I made above xD What could make you happier than a ton of exams and studying to do? *sarcasm* Well, at least we have Christmas and the holidays to compensate it... But it's a real pity that my holiday is going to last only in 2 weeks...

I've been reading Full Metal Alchemist lately. I just started to read it after my best friend began to like it a lot, it was around last month I think. I've only gotten to chapter 16 now (not that I'm a slow reader, but sometimes I'm just too lazy to read and I can go for 3 days to a week without touching FMA at all XD), but so far the story progress has been very good, with a lot of death and sadness... But it's good, still. I still like Bleach a lot more, don't mistake me, but FMA, I think, has quite a heavier plot than Bleach. Bleach's been kinda boring lately~

Well, maybe I'd spend a lot of time reading manga in the holidays. Though I've started watching Code Geass, I've been too lazy to continue it or to watch another series. The only thing I watch right now is the new Bleach episode that comes weekly. I've read manga quite often lately, and maybe I'll start reading Katekyo Hitman Reborn and continue reading Vagabond in the holidays... I don't know...

Though most all other schools have finished their 1st semester examination this week, mine has just started two days ago. That's because of my school's 10th anniversary. Though I had enjoyed the days without lessons at school, the practices and the show itself... I have to admit that the aftermath is not quite nice... >.>
