Katamari Damacy~! <3
Okay, I'm not sure who to blame for this one-- Vince for bringing me to Bob's party, Marc for playing against me first, Jimbo, or Christal. Regardless, I bought Katamari Damacy the day before I left for San Diego-- with my GameStop bucks, it was just a little over $12-- quite a sweet deal, if you ask me! But of course, I'm addicted.
And I'm still stuck on Make A Star 4, which is the same level I played to and got stuck on before. I've ranged from the low 50s to 99.8cm-- so blasted close! But alas, I just can't make it up to that 1m mark! ;_; How irritating! I did manage to work up a sort of stratagem: get the caramels, dice, and pins first, then the mah-johng tiles. Follow up with the batteries and then the erasers, and roll off the table to get the parsley, Lego blocks, round batteries, and mice. Get big enough to pick up Mandarin peels, shogi tiles, and the mini-Pylons. When all the small stuff from the living area is stuck, grab the books separating the main room from the porch, and grab the watermelons, the soda cans, and the flowers. Head around the side of the house underground; grab a few spiders, some rats and mice, and the little Jumbomen. Head up into the kitchen/bathroom area, and try to roll up to the counter to get the present. Move onto the boy's room and grab some toys, and then drop out the balcony to the garden. Grab the microphones and fireworks, and see if you can grab some potted plants and buckets. Try and roll up to street-level, and start grabbing balls, cats, briefcases... and then I always run out of time. Sometimes if I can manage, I wander around in the garden to grab cucumbers, rulers, birds, and more cats...
My policy at the moment is to spend 10 minutes (the time you're given to make the 1m Katamari) reviewing![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
fourhouseunion applications, WDKY22, and then go back to Katamari. o_o
Beat it! And I made Cygnus too, although I had too many ducks.
So he said he still loves me. Which helps, considering I feel the same-- that hasn't changed, despite our "lack" of a status. But truthfully? I just find it easier to call him my boyfriend, even if now he's 200 some-odd miles away, getting into his "real life" away from college and parents and all that yuck. We still call, email, and such. But despite Amtrak only costing $70 round trip for me to visit him, I doubt it's the kind of thing either of us could do all that often, especially when school starts for me again. I don't see myself as being immensely busy, but then again, who knows?
My schedule is a bit weird this semester, what with 2 night classes. I'm taking:
* Writing, Reporting, and Ethics III (3)
* Japanese 102/C/L (4)
* Women Writers of Asia (3)
* California Geography (3)
* Major American Writers (3)
I've already got most of my books on reserve at the bookstore. I already own one of the texts for Women Writers of Asia, because it's Banana Yoshimoto's "N.P."! ^^ In case you don't know, Banana Yoshimoto is my favorite author. I love the "I" style of writing, even if I can't seem to do it much myself (for fanfics or short stories of my own). It's very common in Asian literature, apparently.
But back to the original topic... before we left, Scott said "Everything is okay between us, right?" Well, of course it is-- as far as I know. But then, is that kind of like a goodbye sort of thing to say? Like, this is really it, I'm moving on, now you have to, as well? >_> It just sort of unnerved me and made me upset. I'm stubborn, I know it. I'm not into meeting someone new. Friends, fine. I'd love to make friends down here. It'd be great to have some people to celebrate my 21st birthday with, or people to go bowling with, or something. Baba wants me to go out more often, but as I am with food, I'm picky about friends.
And I guess I'm picky about significant others, too. I don't know what to think.
It has occurred to me that anyone that could possibly tell Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa about their mother (Padmé Amidala) is dead. The list:
* The Jedi (massacred by the clones & Anakin)
* Obi-Wan ("died" at Darth Vader's hand)
* Yoda (died before he really told anything to Luke outside of his Jedi training)
* Bail Organa (died in the explosion of Alderaan)
* Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader (duh.)
* The Emperor/Chancellor Palpatine (duh 2.0)
Who else was there that DIDN'T get killed in RotS? I would cite Jar-Jar, but who the heck knows where in the galaxy he might be? And even if there was someone else --such as the new Queen, or another Senator from Naboo-- how would said person know/seek out Luke and Leia, and why would the two of them believe whatever s/he/it had to say? How would the connection to Naboo even be made?
Fact is, I just started thinking of this out of the blue, because I think a "Luke and Leia find out about their mother" fic would be rockin'. But I'm terrified of looking into the Star Wars fandom for a fic that fits this profile, and I sure as hell won't start another fic. But hey, if there are fans out there, I'm open to recs.
Oh, and Blue Eyes and Apricots is up. I mentioned that in my mailing list, but I thought I'd give it a shout out here, too. All new content, new layout, new affiliates, and more. I'm still waiting on Garfour's response for the art, TAFL's response for the fanlisting's "official" status, and any new affiliates.
Finally, KYSRA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The scanner shipped today. :)
