Ramb

I didn't want to recieve just yet, my Chemistry test result, but I did anyway, this afternoon-- just like the rest of class. The grade wasn't good at all-- a 4,6. The average at my school is 6,0 and not 7,0, but in anyone's book-- 4,0 or 5,0 is already really lame. That's what you get when you only get half of the test right. Why did I have to mess up nonsense and forget some stupid detail?!, is what I can't help but think to myself. >_< Bleh.

Anyway, I'm not going to freak and go into a whole panic deal. There is simply no point. I guess I couldn't expect for me to have all good grades in the beginning , although I was hoping so. I'll just have to work hard these next few weeks to study a bit more. (As if I wasn't already studying a lot, right?)

Man, why is it so hot-- there's nearly no wind!~ I could close my door and my window to turn on the air-conditioning but if I did that, the door would block some of my connection to the internet .. ;__; Why, you ask? It's complicated. But that is the condition for it working.

Yeah, I'm rambling.... I wanted to post something, but I can't seem to find something that I really want to talk about. Talking about my daily life isn't always that interesting... So I have a question: What would you like me to talk about next time I post?

"Boom-I-am-not-gone!!"

I had decided that after watching Gattica with my dad, I’d continue studying the rest of Chemistry. But I really don’t want to. I mean, seriously. I have that feeling of distaste in my stomach right now, at just of the thought of it.

Then again, it’s not Chemistry’s fault. I have nothing against it. I just don’t feel like studying period. I want a break, you know? This studying every weekend for the tests on Tuesday gets tiring. So I’ll try my best to go to bed relativaly early tonight, and wake up around 6AM to get a fresh start and finish whatever that’s left.

Yes, that’s what I will do. A sigh of relief is due!

Now on to another subject. ”Gattica.” Great movie. I mean, come on—what movie isn’t great with Jude Law in it? My only complaint about the movie is that the very Jude, the very character he plays that I came to like so much, leaves far too quickly. Sure, there was a reason behind it and all—but still! Why do all my favorite characters have to go off somehow and go “boom-I-am-gone!”, just like that? Why? I wanted to have that feeling that they could exist a bit longer… It’s a very frustrating reality if otherwise so.

…In any case—watch the movie if you haven’t. Especially if you want a good story + the gorgeous bonus Jude Law. What could be better, really? (Yeah, I like Matthew McConaughey too. But Jude Law has some magic going on that’s a bit different.)

Anyhow, my day was fairly good. I got a pleasant surprise when I got a call from Cristina on my cellphone. We only talked for a couple minutes, but it was awesome nonetheless. I miss her lately. And all of my friends from Fortaleza. It’s amazing how much that phrase is true:
Absence makes the heart fonder.
I also managed to draw something different. See, I owe a drawing to my sister in Germany. Her birthday was in Febuarary and when I asked her what she wanted as a present, she said "a drawing from you." I mentioned the fact that it'll take a while to get there by mail, but she was all "Even so, I want the real thing. Even if it takes 3 months." Nearly three months have passed... But it's only because I can't seem to decide what to draw for her, and aside from that, I have been busy with school. So in a nutshell, I haven't a decent drawing for her yet. But I do have some drawing to show here, or on my other blog. Not now, but sometime when I get myself to post them.

But I can say that I do have some doodles I did on my tablet to show! I guess I'll post it here and possibly on my other blog too. So here it goes (mind you, some of these were done when I was desperately trying to entertain myself.)





This last drawing is a character of mine! Her name is cheesily "Silere." It means "silence" in Latin--since she's mute. This is the character that had originally jumped off a cliff (does it ring a bell, Chai?) This is one of her many thoughtful moments.


Oh, and would you do me the pleasure of checking out my domain?. It's not officially online and done, but I changed the "coming soon" sign, lol. I find it terribly cute. <3

In a bubble

My life, I could say… in a bubble, at the moment, is:
• School. So far, I have gotten good grades on most of my tests. Just today I found out I got a 10 on my History test. Which is wow in my opinion! I have never gotten a full ten before. O_O

• I miss my friends from Fortaleza—yet I have made some friends at my new school already, luckily. Maybe I’ll show some pictures soon, when I have one of everybody.

• ‘Still don’t have a fixed place. In other words, I’m still in the same little duplex/house… We’re still looking for a place.

• Studying in the afternoon is also quite crazy at times, I have to admit. Seriously. But I’ve gotten use to it I think.

… On other news? I have been mostly using my weekends to goof off reading comics when I can (Vampire Knight and Yakitate Japan!! Oh, and can’t forget Ouran!)—otherwise I’m studying for the weekly tests.

Grammar sucks, by the way. T_T

My History teacher rocks. He is SO hilarious. And I am not being sarcastic—serious—he is too funny. I nearly cry at every class of his.

I want to say that I have been working hard on my domain, and on my stories, but that would be a lie. A small lie, but a lie nonetheless. So let’s not be in denial here! I have been working on it—sort of. But not really. After the 1st two weeks of school, I haven’t really sat down to do anything on it.

So yeah, I suck when it comes to keeping up with my own little goals. It figures. v_v

As you can see I am in the mood for silly “faces”. ‘Dunno why. I’m going to make this end here—in 8 minutes it will be 11 o’clock and I have to wake up at 7AM at least, since I have P.E. (volleyball) tomorrow, which is in the morning. So until next time, this is all the info you get.

>__> Sorry…

What a movie.


If you haven't watched "Pearl Harbor", directed by Michael Bay, you must now. ASAP! I mean seriously-- it's a masterpiece. There's only so many movies that can move you so much, and this is one of them that even brought me to tears.

Whack-o dream.

I just had this whacky dream. At first, I dreamt about three women, some younger or older than the other, who supposed they all were pregnant. It turned out only the oldest was. Then my dream switched to this story of the oldest woman, who was officially pregnant, proposing to the man she loved in a room full of drifting light purple daisies, with violet wine glasses scattered on a brown patio floor. They both seemed terribly happy, but they both only smiled at each-other. The dream seemed to end, I thought, at that point, but for some reason it took a strange turn.

Now the happy couple was dancing in what seemed to be an empty ballroom (or maybe it was one of those things where all they could see were themselves dancing) -- they both wore fancy, regal-like clothing. The lady wore a white-sprinkled with gold, while the man wore a navy blue. Things like gold dust seemed to be drifting around the place.

Then, all of a sudden, it seemed like the "fast-forward" button was pressed. The man the woman loved was in front a humungo old mansion, in a cloudy fall setting. Everything seemed somber as he walked into the building. The mansion was quite empty and some parts that seemed unused were a bit rundown. I find out later (or rather, a couple seconds later, I suppose) that this man has a child, a bratty 11 or 12 year-old who's constantly complaining to her father about his lack of action. This girl also has a ridiculous amount of toys, like Barbies and Polly Pocket's, but they're all untouched, still in their plastic case, stacked into shelfs.

Then there comes another man who seems to have done a deal between the first and they exchange cold looks between eachother, although the 2nd man shows off a smirk on and off, finding this amusing.( He also seems to be quite the womanizer, constantly seen with some other lady. )

Like most of my dreams, they tend to be unexplained (I guess all dreams are like that, yes?), and so the next scene came quickly and had no real explanation as to how it got there..

The 12 year-old girl was scared and frantic, yet again complaing about dad's behavior. Her father was sulking in a room, claiming he could do nothing about the situation. The 2nd man was searching the many rooms with what looked something like a rifle. There was some kind of explosion, I guess, and then the sulky man was somewhere else, in what seemed to be a mix of a car fair and some science fair?

And from that point I woke up. o_o
I haven't had such a long-told dream before. Most of my dreams are just odd scenes-- fragments and unrelated.
