Okay, here’s the current news.

Listening to: Nothing specific. I have a small headache…

Gee, I'm sorry I haven't been very up-to-date lately, uh, blog. (Or if anybody reads this, I'd like to apologize to you too.) It's not like I have no news to tell. I do! Some of it's private, and some of it's just regular stuff. ...I guess I just didn't want to go through the effort and try to write something.

Anyway, I'll just make it simple. Here's the news that I am allowed to report (some stuff I might not remember at the moment):

1. I’m waiting for an order of two games. Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts: Chains of Memories! I swear I’m counting the days! It’s due some time in Febuary.

A complicated explanation: My dad wanted me to pick some games that I wanted for Christmas. I made a list (a fairly large one, I might add) and I gave him the links at Amazon. (This happened, like, 1 month and 1/2 later, from the day he asked me to make one.) He put them all in his "shopping cart," but it turned out that some of them couldn't be sent here, and the total cost was pretty expensive, so we took out some ones that weren't that necessary. So we only had 3 left, but just one other game couldn’t be sent here directly. We could have still gotten it, but I thought it was too complicated, so I just picked the last two, which are the ones I’m waiting for. Oh, and I was planning to get some more comics, but not all of them could be sent out of the U.S. so I gave up on those…

2. School is almost over! I know what you’re going to say! “WHAT?! You haven’t finished school yet?!” But it’s true. All I have left with schoolwork is a test, and two unfinished compositions for the test. Then I’ll a have a small vacation, I guess. Though I wouldn’t say school would be completely finished then, because I’d still have to wait for my test results…

3. I don’t really know if this would be considered news, since you probably already know I’m planning to go to art classes in February… but I found out a while ago that they start February 21st. I still haven’t registered, though.

4. We have a new girl in the house. Her name is Manuela. Isn’t that pretty? She’s pretty. She talks loads, though. I already know that much even though she’s only been here for 3 or 4 days.

An explanation: Just so whoever’s reading this is not confused, we have maids. (Liana has been here for a while… But Manuela is new. We had a 2nd before, but she was fired.) I never wanted to tell anybody that we had maids because I was too embarrased to admit it. We’ve had maids for a while… but just two. It’s normal here in Brazil.

5. Oh, I saw “Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events” a couple days ago at the theaters with my mom. It was good and kind of funny. But I was really surprised that Jim Carrey played good as Count Olaf. Usually he’s kind of weird… The only think that bothered me was that they mixed up the 3 books. I haven’t read the 2 other books, but I know for a fact that they didn’t put it in order because the play that’s in the ending of the first book is practically at the ending of movie. So that annoyed me. Otherwise it was pretty good. The baby, Sunny, was oddly funny.

I think that’s enough, don’t you? I wrote more then I expected. Just so you know, I didn’t put this in any order. I just wrote the first things that came to mind. But whoever’s reading this; I hope that was interesting for you, and that it freed you from some of your boredom.

I’m signing off. Hmm, the headache's still there. I probably need a break from the computer. Sayonara! (That’s what they say in Japan, right?)
