Life is so unjust! I was playing FFVIII, right? Right. And I go to Centra thingum where Odin is, and I wasted a lot of time cos I didn't know what was going on, and I fought Odin and ran out of time and died, right? Right. But that's not the unjust part. Cos then I knew wot to do so I went and did it again and this time I had like 13 minutes to beat Odin in and I BEAT him very easily, right? Of course, right!! And Odin does that whole "I will join you" GF thing that they all do, but do I GET A NEW GF?! NO!!! I guess it was just some kind of wacky glitch, so I'm gonna try it again, and if it doesn't work I'm going to sic Javert on Squaresoft! They won't flaunt injustice in my face and expect me to sit quietly by!

I have yet another thing to add to my list of things I want to buy: DDR for PSX. Hey, what's with the X anyway? Why isn't it just called the PS? Some people and magazines and stuff just call it PS. But most call it PSX. WHY?!

I went to bed last night at one like I'm supposed to, read Les Mis until about two, tried to sleep until 2.36, at which point I said "AnJa," and waited for her to say "hmm?" (so I'd know whether she was awake) then said "A preposition is a terrible thing to end a sentence with."

See, cos Chris and her husband and children were sleeping in my room so I was with AnJa. That's why she happened to be present. Also probably why I couldn't fall asleep; I have trouble sleeping in places that aren't in all actuality my bed. I really wanted to get up and play FFVIII too but I didn't cos I'm a good girl.

Lessee... went to see the Final Fantasy movie yesterday ^_^ It ROCKED!! (don't read for spoilers) Only problem is that like everybody dies. ai YAA. In most FF games, only like one, two at the most, semi-major characters die.... oh well. Also, the end credits spelled "Cid" wrong.. and there were no Biggs or Wedge! AnJa and I figured that prolly two of the random people without names that, of course, died, were actually Biggs and Wedge. Also, we were going to see it with her friend Stephanie, only she didn't show up and we thought we'd been stood up. But then after the movie was over she came up from where she'd been sitting nearer to the front O_o Turns out she showed up about fifteen minutes late and then couldn't find us in the dark theatre. C'est la vie. I just spoke French. Fear me. Oh yeah! Bastille Day! What's with the French, eh?! If you're French, I have nothing against you personally, I know it's not your fault. La la la la la la la la la! I'm in a very random mood! Could you tell? No, you couldn't! That's how special I am!

.... then after the movie we went to church. And... yeah. Umm.... it was AnJa's turn to pick where we eat and she chose Taco Cabana XD!!! I LOVE THAT PLACE! Then last night when I DID manage to go to sleep, I had a dream that it was next Saturday and it was my turn to choose and I got up in the morning and AnJa and Dad told me I couldn't pick a place that had chicken. x_x I'm planning to pick Popeye's next week cos I haven't eaten there in a while, I really love it, and we can get 64 oz. sodas XD! Although mum is ashamed of us when we do. Hoo-hoo-hoo.

So anyway, this morning Chris, Ron, Mallory and Grace were going with us to breakfast at the Gunther House. They woke AnJa and me up at about 9 and asked if we wanted to go along; AnJa said yes and started to get up and stuff, but Cutie was sleeping kind of on top of me and he was so warm and soft and I'd only slept for six or something hours that I said "I don't know" and went back to sleep. Then a few minutes later mum came and said "Do you want to go?" and I said "I don't know" again and she said "Well, we're going, so you have to decide!" and I said "no," because Cutie was soft and warm. It's not that I didn't want to go, it's just that I didn't want to get up. I'm sure you can understand that. Then I went back to sleep and awoke at 2 in the afternoon =D()()()()

I played FFVIII and the other people got home and Chris-tachi packed their stuff and went, AnJa went to work at Old Navy, and... yeah... I stopped playing FFVIII to socialise and say good-by, and then when they left I went to play some more and the injustice which has been expounded upon in an earlier segment befell me. Then I saved in a different slot, turned the game off and went downstairs to get food because it was already like 4 something p.m. and I'd eaten nothing. Mum was doing something with wood, fixing a chair or something, and asked if I wanted her to make me chicken legs =D!!! I said "no thanks, I hate chicken." I'M JUST JOKING!! So she said she'd make those after she finished doing the wood thing and I came upstairs and turned on music and wrote this journal entry. I'll write more stuff and post it after the rest of the day occurs-- maybe after Andromeda is over early tomorrow morning. ^_^

It is now 1.33 am. I told the truth, I did! My copy of FFVIII is the enemy of Great Justice. I tried like three times doing a variety of things and Odin still didn't join even though I defeated him ;_; I looked online to see if anyone else had this trouble, and it seems they DID NOT, and only I DO, and it makes me very sad. Irvine is cool. I have 100 Tornadoes junctioned to his attack and he totally kicks everyone's bum XO Also Rinoa is cool, but I dun-like the name Rinoa, so I just think of her as Ai Ling O_o She mugs people. Jackie (Squall) doesn't do anything besides Draw all the time XD His magic rating is like grossly high thanks to me and my mad Junctioning skillz. I didn't like the Junctioning system when I first started playing, but now I kinda dig it. I do not however dig the perverse lack of justice which makes it so I can't acquire Odin and his six-legged horse. Hans and I are having a conversation about cleavage x_x

I'm going tomorrow to stay with Chrissy until like Thursday. I'm kinda nervous about it. That is, I'm not a very social person, and I'm not sure I'll be very good company in a 24/7 kind of way without really trying. It's different when you're with a bunch of people, or if it's only for a few hours, but this is-- you know, more than three days, with just me and them. Normally mum, dad, and AnJa are also there, so there's no problem with me just kind of disappearing and doing whatever on my own. But when I'm the only one there it's rude. Also, once when I was little... 8 or 9 or something... AnJa and I stayed with Chrissy for about a week, and I did rude things without meaning to and Chris told us about how mum thought we were bad houseguests, and stuff u_u() Which she probably is either sorry she said or doesn't even remember she said it, or some combination of both, but whatever, you know? It's not the kind of thing that I personally have an easy time not taking (probably) way too seriously. I know I was just a punk kid back then, but still. I'm worried. I don't want to do anything rude. (It's an offshoot of that whole "don't want to be in trouble" thing) I wish someone else was going to be there with me to take the pressure off... seriously though, don't get me wrong. I really love these people, they're great, and I like spending time with them, but I'm just so obscenely introverted that I can't "be myself" and feel like a long visit like this could even possibly go smoothly. I don't want to have to TRY to be sociable, but when you're me, what else can you do? It also makes me feel guilty about just being who I am, like I don't really love anyone that much because I don't want to spend time with them a lot of times. This also would be easier if they happened to be my *immediate* family rather than aunt, etc. I mean, it's not like my dad is offended that I play video games and get on the computer 80% of my waking hours. This extended family-ship is mostly the same as friendship. Now I'm imagining spending a whole week with Keffy or Zuki or someone. I mean seriously, I *love* these people, but I just don't think I can do it-- just being myself. I feel like something's wrong with me-- that I'd really rather be by myself, most of the time, even when the people I'd be around AREN'T people I dislike or anything.

Bah. It's already almost two o'clock and I have to get up like at six or something tomorrow. I mean today. Well, this became all... introspective or something. I will make up for that by talking about today's episode of Andromeda XD Tyr + Beka = BAD. She's way NOT COOL enough for him! Trance + Tyr = unlikely but that would be SOOOO CUTE. Dylan + anyone = Dylan is a manwhore. Dylan + starship captain = Dylan is a bad name for a starship captain.

I speak French x_o Happy Bastille Day! "Bienvenu" means "Welcome"!
