Ad Mundo Exteriore,
I think I am currently downloading the fifth (fifth!) ending song to Hikaru no Go, but I can't tell if it's working or not. (What's with these "sophisticated" web sites using weird file formats?)
I was reading my friends page and came across a community post that I made on Friday. I was staring at the icon and thinking, "Hey, that person stole my icon!" Then I read the entry and realized what was going on. Sheesh. What's wrong with me?
Made a pretty sketch of Sai late last night instead of doing my chemistry homework, which by the way is still unfinished. Yes, second-semester senioritis, I know, but hey, at least I was trying to finish it. Trying. Hah.
So, yes, finished reading The Time of the Ghost, which was a delightfully puzzling conundrum, usual Diana Wynne Jones who honestly has no other recognizeable link among her many divers books except for the bizarre twisting plots and the characteristic writing style. She goes from ghosts to time machines to intergalactic business empires to King Arthur to multiple universes, often within the same book. How's that for constant reinvention? Should actually have been finishing reading the "Tradition and the Individual Talent" essay instead, but I still have physics homework. (Which is due this Friday, but apparently I have to finish it now, or so Mother says, because NHSMUN is this week, and I will be gone for four days.)
Which reminds me, yes, I will be gone from Wednesday to Saturday. I shudder to think of my inbox or my friends page. What on earth possessed me to join all those communities?! Oh dear...and come to think of it, this year's NHSMUN conference will be really boring. Committee sessions will be better, since UNDP is so small, but sessions are always really stressful, and I'm rooming with two tenth graders and Devonne. Not that I mind being with Devonne, it's just that I know her even less than my usual rooming group (who ditched me this year without even an apology). Ugh. I wish .hack//SIGN was broadcast on Friday night, since then I can stay up watching Cartoon Network instead of trying to sleep during the delegate dance. The dance, by the way, is really boring. (Especially if you don't dance yourself.) I thought in my first year at the conference that it would be a chance to hang out but it isn't! No! There's bad disco music! (Although I did hear that once, a delegation from Denmark had the European champion ballroom dancing couple, and the whole Danish crowd swept into an elegant waltz. We missed it because we were eating a ridiculously expensive HPTF delegation dinner at some restaurant.) This year, apparently, we'll be eating at the pizza place that Ms. Termini's family owns. Won't that be interesting? Hey, at least I'll get my money's worth. Will do anything to sneak out to Asahiya after NHSMUN is over so that I can buy some more manga, but no such luck, since math midterm is next Wednesday.
I'm especially dense today, aren't I? Sorry about that. Don't try to understand my writing, especially when I'm listening to Hikaru no Go music, which is enough to turn anyone's brain to mush. Hah. The fifth ending song has finished downloading, and it sounds really odd.
