"And if I become a demon, so be it. I'll endure the exile. Anything for her!"



Holy crap, I haven't posted in here for a long time. Anyways its the middle of July, meaning its also the middle of Summer break. Who would have thunk it? So far here's how my summer is going.

Bored. Total utter bordom. I applied for a job at B&N, but they never called back. So much for getting a job. I need to find one when I go off to college though. I want to earn money for my own desires.

Finally, though, I'm out of high school, and soon I'm off to college. Don't get me wrong, high school was fun. But I would like to spread my wings a bit more and dabble more into things I like that I wouldn't be able to now. Like getting away from my parents, who nagged the living daylights out of me. And joining several organizations that I'm interested in. And things of the sort. I will, however, miss all the friends I made during my high school years. Especially, my girlfriend.

Graduation was cool. Well actually, in the morning it was really humid and unbearable. But inside was awesome, walking up that stage, everyone cheering you on as you go. Yep. It was that last moment though that I can hang with the all friends I made.

This summer isn't a total waste. I have been watching a lot of anime. I've finished Amaenaideyo! Katsu!, Tower of Druaga~ Aegis of the Uruk, and all the Da Capo series. Yes, Da Capo, Da Capo Second Season, Da Capo II, and Da Capo II Second Season. Needless to say, it was pretty good. See my anime list for more.

I also have been RPing lately. Met a whole bunch of nice people over the internet. Its really fun. I'll mostly likely continue on in the future.

I even found MP3s for one of my favorite bands, ACID. I've pretty much listened to them when I'm not watching anime. But their songs are really good. Like Sorrow in the Box expresses that feeling to prove yourself to the world, and Big Bang gives that dark, surreal feel and then an explosion of emotion.

I've also been working out more. The first few days were hell, since I haven't been working out for a long time. I realized how out of shape I was, the hard way. I'm starting to bulk up a little. Now only if I can find a way to get flat, washboard abs.

Here's how it goes:
For one day I would
-Jump rope
-Situps
-Bench Press
-Bicep curls
-Arm Adduction (I don't really know what it's called, but I'm trying to work out my deltoids)
-Steam Train
-Toe Taps

For the other day I would:
-Run around the neighborhood several times.
-Ride my bike all the way to a friend's neighborhood and back.

My biking skills have improved, I can lean in more for tighter turns. Makes me really want a motorcycle also.

I also had a hand at Ninja Gaiden II. It was hard, namely because I haven't played it in a long time and the guys at Team Ninja kicked the difficulty up a notch. Too bad Itagaki quit, he was such a cool guy. Same with some of the other workers in Team Ninja, they quit too. Something about not getting royalties for the DOA4 game.

I also watched a whole bunch of movies. Watched Ratatouille, Pirates of the Carribean: At the World's End, and stuff like that. Haven't been to the theaters though, wish I can.

As for college, I'm going to major in Biology and minor in Music. It'll be fun, right? Well it won't if my parents keep nagging me on the subject of studying and stuff related to it. I also met a few nice people at course registration day. It was cool, maybe I'll see them again.

I also made a Skype account, burningsakabatou. I won't be able to use it totally until I finally move into the dorms, since my parents are annoying.

I'm going to take my driving exam on the 23rd, wish me luck. I'm not worried that much, but that extra luck might help.

Well, besides watching a lot of sitcoms and Hell's Kitchen, that pretty much is summing up my summer.
