pacificpikachuAhhh, I've been so bad at LJing and commenting the last couple of days. e__e Need to write entries and comment! I have so many tabs open of things to read! I just feel like I have so much going on, even though most of the "things I have going on" are trivial things like maybe forty-five minutes worth of packaging, driving to dad's house by myself to get my DS charger, going to Sword of the Stranger screening with Makayla, thinking about doing a painting and other crafty things, and so on.
Thank you all for the sweet replies for my last entry! ♥ I did some driving by myself today, and I daresay it's easier to drive by myself than it is with parents. The only thing is that interacting with the other drivers/cars makes me a bit nervous, but other than that, smooth sailing so far.
However, today my internet time has been stolen away by Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time. I got it...er, technically yesterday because it's currently 3 AM, and I've been playing it almost nonstop ever since about 7 PM. It took me a while to get the starter I wanted--the question sets it was generated kept being all wrong! I was so bad at the battles at first, but now I've improved quite a bit. I'm not terribly far, but my team is called Team Wildflower, and I'm a Chikorita named Hanabi with a male Pikachu partner named Azami. We also added a female Wooper named Para-Para recently, and she was given such a silly name in part because I'm not sure if she'll be sticking around. We'll see--she's actually been fairly handy so far when she's not using Mud Sport constantly. And it is nice to have a Water/Ground type!
I'm beginning to think I need to cut my f-list down again. :( I don't like to, but I'm finding that the volume of posts on my friends list is a bit overwhelming and sometimes takes away a little from life/school/artistic time because I insist on reading extremely close to every post on my f-list. I like to get to know everyone on my friends list well and make sure I respond to important posts when I can. I don't know if I'll actually do a cut soon or what, but just FYI, if you don't feel particularly attached to me or what I generally post about I won't be offended or hurt at all if you just let me know via PM or comment and we can mutually remove. It'll be on friendly terms, no hostility or drama or any of that. If I've met you IRL or we've been friendly for a while/have a lot of similar interests then this obviously doesn't apply, but I'm just putting that out there for anyone who added me and just never felt it clicked or whatever.
I'm sleepy now, so I'll have to do more LJ-ing tomorrow, as well as work on artand Pokémon Mystery Dungeon.

Date: 2009-02-07 11:37 am (UTC)Generally, I think it's easier driving alone than with other people. Even today, my mom tries to backseat drive when we're in the car together (and I've had my license for 4 years).
Her: Now, make sure to put both hands on the wheel and signal left.
Me: >:|
Then again, this is the woman who has told me to eat my vegetables despite me living on my own for 3 years. So who knows, maybe she's just crazy.

Date: 2009-02-07 11:50 am (UTC)And haha, my mom tends to gasp or yell over the strangest things, which makes me nervous while driving (she does this while watching TV shows as well:
Mom: *Gasps!* Oh my god!
Me and my brother: What's going on? :O
Mom: The lion almost caught the gazelle on the program! OR The horse barely made it over a jump in this movie! OR The people got into a car crash in the commercial!
Me and my brother: ???)
Whereas my dad obsesses on the tiny details of my driving, such as whether I backed in to a parking lot perfectly straight or not, or whether I know that I'm turning four exits ahead, and things like that.
Parents are crazy about driving. :'D

Date: 2009-02-08 10:27 am (UTC)I'm doing a painting of Umbreon and Eevee right now! Except I just realized I forgot nearly all of my paints at my other house with the exception of the dark gray, so my painting thusfar only has the silhouette of Umbreon blocked out. XD
Mystery Dungeon is really fun, and addictive! I'm having so much fun with it, and I love my team. ♥
Yes, I try not to add anyone, but I love talking to all sorts of people so when someone adds me it's hard for me not to add them back, haha. But I do need to cut back somehow... I'll have to look through and see who I haven't interacted with much at all.

Date: 2009-02-07 07:40 pm (UTC)Also, I'd think we'd have enough in common for you to keep me added, but I just wanted to say (in case), I really love reading your journal and having you as an LJ friend, so I hope you keep me. D:;

Date: 2009-02-07 08:20 pm (UTC)ACTUALLY NO WAIT, WE ARE TOTALLY NOT FRIENDS AND WE CAN MUTUALLY UNADD EACHOTHER WTF IT'S NOT LIKE WE EVER EVER HANG OUT IRL.
Speaking of such things, I think I noticed something while thinking about labs (and contemplating whether to sit down and DO them), and that is, I come off as a total bitch in chem lab, and that is SO NOT YOU, it's me being stressed out (and when I get stressed I get bitchy, you may remember driving in San Francisco, I think I was pretty bitchy then, too) over OMGWTF AM I DOING??? I'm not sure if I've sent the bitch vibes your way, so if I have, whoops! Smack me upside the head next time, and tell me to knock it off. :D
Sorry if I have/in advance/whatever.
So you going to un-add me now partner?

Date: 2009-02-07 08:38 pm (UTC)Want to get together tomorrow at Mekka (OMG YOU CAN DRIVE TO MEET ME NOW!!!) and go over the lab that's due on Monday?

Date: 2009-02-08 10:46 am (UTC)Also, Makayla, Daniell, and I have a Dennou Coil marathon planned for next weekend (not sure which day yet), and I was wondering if you'd be free any one of the weekend days for that? I totally understand if not because it is a solid block of like twelve or thirteen hours, but it'll be fun!

Date: 2009-02-08 10:42 am (UTC)Haha, don't worry about it. You tend to seem a little hasty, but not that bad and I totally understand. I've been meaning to apologize to you actually, because during lab I think I sometimes tend to act all spaced-out and pitiful/helpless. This is, in part, because I NEVER get enough sleep before Chemistry no matter how hard I try, and also just because of the stress of Chemistry in general. So if I'm being pathetic/whiny/spacey/acting like a slacker in general, please try to disregard it as well--I can still actually work on the labs and be productive, I promise. It's just a bad stress and sleep deprivation coping method. DX
I hate it, because then it perpetuates my weird complex about being useless that I suspect is the result of being a Pisces with two Aries parents constantly telling me that I do nothing, can't do things correctly if I do something, don't do things quickly enough, and implying to some degree that I'm incompetent in general. :( Not that they mean to do that, but it's just a difference between our personalities.
We'll just put up with each others' crazy Chem stress and not worry about it. :D If we ever piss each other off during class, we'll just chalk it up to being under the influence of CHEMISTRY and move on.

Date: 2009-02-08 04:52 am (UTC)Oh, absolutely! I'm definitely thinking cosplay work party sometime in the next few months, Y/Y? Obviously before Fanime, and we'll figure out a date and time later! I need to get materials first, though!
Pfft, I'd never cut you! :D
