Death Note, Volume 10

So... it's been a year since I updated this. Has alot happened since then? Maybe. I haven't really sat down to think about it.

I applied early decision to Muhlenberg College in Allentown PA, and got in. I'll be going there this fall. Prom and graduation are closing in. Before I know it I'll be old, bald and fat with smelly, ungrateful childrens to call my own. :) Oh well. Death Note, Dungeons and Dragons, Dir en Grey, Dance Dance Revolution, zombies, and cheese quesadillas are all exactly as good as they were a year ago. So I think I'll be okay.

It's the last day of spring break. I've been playing a new tabletop RPG called "Exalted" since last summer. I was gathering all of the dice I need to play into a ziplock bag, when I managed to drop one of them. The die bounced twice on the carpet, and then I could swear it vanished into thin air. Feeling bored and OCD, I scoured the space beneath my desk for the thing. I ended up finding nearly everything I've ever drawn since the 8th grade, including those comics I posted about a year and a half ago. Maybe I'll pick it back up, eventually. I'm not sure.

This place is a mess. I should probably do something about the broken Jukebox at the top of the page...

Today was a very nice day. I got a hundred on my last math quiz, and we got to have class outside. Crayons are still fun to draw with.

I'm going to a wedding in Philadelphia tommorrow. Text me, or message me if I get on AIM. Please.

OMG. If this movie is subbed for the states, I will attain a state of pure nerdvana.

Death Note, Volume 4 (Death Note)

(I really can't stand the turn this series takes at the end of the fourth book. Sometimes I wonder if I should pick up the fifth book at all.)

Being in Montreal and being absent for four days has allowed school to thoroughly kick my ass. I'm still playing catch-up -_-

The trip was alright, although alot of the food wasn't very good. Seriously, who drinks maple syrup by the mug? I got in some quality RP time, although it doesn't seem like I'm a very good Dungeon Master. I brought along a VERY basic storyline to RP, but one can only BS so much...

Speaking of BS, my procrastination has officially gotten out of hand. It's like... instead of working, I'm just waiting. I'll sit down to type and just wait for something to distract me. Mrah?

By the way... the imrov show's next performance is May 10th at the basement in bethesda. Anyone reading this is invited, just be prepared to pay $5 at the door. It says May 10th is open mic night right now, but I'm fairly certain we have a spot reserved. Our leading lady Mae has gotten a big part in a one act her school, scheduled for the same day. What luck, eh? This mean it'll be just us four guys and we'll be doing lots more female roles than before. Eeew! Icky girls!

I need some waffles...

In the last 7 days I have...

- gotten recertified to give CPR. Feel free to collapse into cardiac arrest next time we hang out. It's cool.

- visited 4 colleges. Mcdaniel, Goucher, UMBC and St. Mary's. I had to drive to all of them. I'd be happy going to any of those schools, except for Mcdaniel maybe. St. Mary's is also in the middle of nowhere...

- watched 2 movies. "Thank You For Smoking" and "Scary Movie 4", both in the same day. "Thank You For Smoking" was great, although it seemed like it should have been a little more... absurd. "Scary Movie 4" was terrible.

- failed a driving test. Mrah. I kept forgetting to look to the left of the car.

- passed a driving test. I took the test again this morning and got my license. Hoo-haa.

- Cleared DDR's "Wild Rush" challenge with a solid B rating. Even if you understood what that meant, you wouldn't believe me. Just practicing took a total of around 7 or 8 hours.

It doesn't seem like alot, but it feels like I've had a fairly productive break. I also got my hands on a copy of that "Oblivion" game. It's pretty amazing. I can't think of any other game that allows you to do so much. This "Death Note" manga I got for easter is pretty sweet too.

Tommorrow, I go back to school. On the day after that, I leave for Montreal with the rest of the band and orchestra. Yee-haw.
