Assorted transpirings

Sigh. I apologise here and now, minna, for my lack of frequent blogging. It's just that I can never think of much if anything to write about, or nothing interesting has happened 'round here, or worst of all, I don't feel like typing...
At least when uni picks up again (only a few more weeks, people! *cheer*) I'll either be too busy to blog and will therefore forget about it, or will have stuffs to comment on =D That's a win-win situation...

Okay, first thing to pop into muh head is the purikura outing! Lesley, Zac and I headed into the city together Monday morning. Of course, as always happens when I go to melbourne Central, we had ichipan at Harajuku (notice that one I call the food, and the other the store...ICHIPAN loyalism!) and I was thrilled (after stumbling over my order..."Can I please get a cheeseburg...Huh? I dun want a cheeseburger. Silly me. What I meant to say was cheesecake deluxe!" >.<) to find that I was customer number 1 for the day. Meaning Lesley and Zac were 2 and 3 =D I kept our receipts for the memory lol (not as strange as you might think...I have a collection of the different Sunny Ridge Strawberry Farm napkins as they have changed over the years I have been visiting >.>) and the ichipan was good!(...and filling, somehow unlike most times, ALL of us were barely hungry when lunch came around). Following the dessert, we went browsing through anime/DVD/plushie stores. At the first one Zac spotted a maid outfit that Lesley needs to wear at least once this year if she knows what's goodfor her lol, at another Zac bought a Totoro, and Lesley got a punnet of strawberries from another xD And at Duchess (yes, the place is as girly as the name suggests...they sold bags and plushies...>.>), which we entered mainly coz on a tram I saw an awesome panda through the window, I discovered a reason to return there when I have moneyz (prolly birthday...), that reason being...well...that awesome panda xD
We eventually met Kriz and Halfling at Melby central after spending a good amount of time at Borders (I read volume 14 of MAR Heaven, and wow, I may just have to read all the prior ones to find out why one of the charries is dead -_-;;...but at least it isn't Nanashi, who is as awesome as evarrr), and we went for purikura kyaaaaa~ It was my first time at puri, and I am particularly glad it was with these guys, and also my beloved panda hat ^_____^ Makes me feel a little special!
Oh, and the last bit of important news regarding the outing is that Halfling now has a Yoshi xD


Other than the puri outing, and a few other days where I've spent time with assorted people (such as Zac's attempt at LAN gaming xD had fun, and even got a new game out of it too =D), I've really just spent the past several days/couple of weeks lounging around on this new pewter my sis' bf gave to me. It was made in this century! It plays games without lagging! (On LAN at least...online is another story, but can't be helped) This means I have gotten more acquainted with Dota, Warhammer 40k (which I would only ever limit myself to playing the RTS...the roleplaying system sucks...), and I've been playing old games like Diablo 2 via Hamachi a fair bit also ^_^


Waaaaaaaa! With uni starting up again soon, people I have missed seeing over the holidays (or for far longer periods) are soon to be flocking back to Melby, returning HOME =D I can't wait. So many international students within the Anime club for example, (if I mention one, I will feel obligated to mention all, and I will undoubtedly forget T>T so) >insert your name here if you are a MCAC regular, currently out of the country. rabu rabu<3<, and of course Tiffeh will be making her mark on Viccy soon enough also ^^ Tiffeh/Tiffy/Tiffles/Froggy/Tiffany is a friend who I met via GaiaOnline. Two important facts about her: she is the one who gave me my panda hat, and she is going to be studying at RMIT =D Can't wait hehe! She is one of the few people I know who I will tell absolutely everything to, and although we dun speak too often (the semi regular msn convo, and the incredibly rare phone call...btw, Tiff, if you've taken the time to read my blog, then let me assure you that I only dun call you because I am at war with phones...face to face or text based convo for the win...the former more so *gluff [3*) just seeing her pop online is enough to know that she is there to glomp me when needed/wanted, and we get along just fine even when it's been ages since we've chatted. I luffle those kinds of relationships, because I've only ever had like, two of those (including this one), whereas I have had far too many painful endings of friendships because the lines of communication flicker and die.


With O-Week on the way, I have needed to start thinking about getting back into 'uni form' (sounds almost like either professional athletics training, or a Sailor Moon-esque transformation xD); sleep patterns so I dun have bloodshot eyes anymore, eating habits (nowhere near as big an issue), and of course, taking PT regularly again T>T Well, I should be spending a good deal of time at uni during O-week, because as first year rep for MURP (Roleplaying club) I need to help out and man our probably incredibly boring stall (seriously...they didn't even TRY during the second semester O-week...as far as I recall, it was a table with a whole bunch of dice on it...I decided to run up to our locker and grab the more popular game books so we at least had SOMETHING, but come on...kinda pathetic), and at any time I ain't needed there, ushering people near the MCAC (anime club) stall (...btw, I have a handful of Wall scrolls, if'n you need some to hang up...the only ones you'd want would the Cloud, or the leon, or the Yuna though...) and persuading them into joining up into the family :P I get along with MCAC people so much better (heh, kinda obvious, seeing as I spend every moment not in a class or borrowing a book with them when I am at uni, compared to Thursday nights with MURP), and I want to become more active within the anime club, although I only want to have a committee position at MURP XD (*crosses fingers* Hopefully the new librarian... HOPEFULLY!) Speaking of Thursday nights at MURP, I am really wondering what game I'll be playing this semester (...year? Last year we played a game that continued through til Christmas...), mainly because last year's game can keep continuing...despite the fact all PCs are now pretty much uber, so we can't really progress much further...but I will miss my Frost elf High Priest when it is decided to let that party's journey rest...(I luffle playing elves...their psyche is so incredibly interesting...yes, I do have an elf fetish...) I haven't heard any word of it for several months, but I am possibly playing a Morrowind game this sem (assuming it runs, I'll be a Bosmer with a Scrib familiar named Weevil...), and the possibility of some of the former Warhammer players leaving for other games doesn't speak well for its longevity...but, we should go out and explore other roleplaying systems, yes? Even though Warhammer is my favourite system that I have yet encountered? *Yelp* I dunno what'll happen...and I think there will be some sadness either way.
Enough lamenting. Something happy and club related...the Dantai! =D Apparently I am head of the Mokuani Dantai (Anime club's dance troupe...although, not really the Anime club's...we just sprung out of some of its members, and perform anime related dances...) alongside Halfling (I've found so far that authority is falling a little more on me...*shoves it back in Halfling's direction* You have just as much say as I do, ya know!). We have selected a tentative lineup for this year's dances at Manfiest, but to be honest, at least one of them is probably too complex to spend time learning...and of course, we are still on the lookout for more dances (new HHY, anyone?) and of course more danceRs. We have several enthusiastic members carrying on from last year, but I fear that not enough people will learn enough dances in time to the standard Hare sensei instilled in us last year...is that a normal fear? Having this responsibility makes this a natural worry? I think I'm going to be VERY tired by the end of the year. Especially considering that other than the things already mentioned that will be keeping me busy/stressed (wait...I mentioned uni is starting up, but not that I'll be taking subjects lol xD yes, I will be xP) I have also made it my goal to attempt to get all MCAC members to cosplay at Amaranth and/or Manifest this year...sigh...dunno how that'll work out...I have yet to select my Manifest cosplay (Amaranth I intend to go as a formal panda) and people are inherently hesitant to my persuasive/demanding pleas...seriously, both events are so incredibly fun if you cosplay...only mildly fun if you don't T>T That these two events are happening a month earlier this year means I have even less time to try and realise my goal...can anyone help? *Sad, whimpering, qivering bottom lip*

SIGH


I had also intended to pop in a sentence or so about how I think arson in this country should be charged as our worst crime aside treason, but I am now finally sleepy after...an hour or so of slow typing? Boku no heya e itteiru yo...

Minna, oyasumi nasai!
