Song of the Day

“A woman never runs away
A woman never hides away
In order to survive
Tatakai mo sezu ni [You can’t long for healing]
Iyashi motomeru mon ja nai [Without a fight]

A woman never shows her fears
A woman never shows her tears
In order to survive
Namida wa tayasuku [Tears aren’t something]
Dareka ni miseru mon ja nai [To be shown to someone lightly]

A woman could be having fun
A woman could be like a nun
In order to survive
Itami wo shiranakya [I can’t be tender]
Yasashiku nante irarenai. [Without knowing pain]
REAL ME”

Real Me, Ayumi Hamasaki

[Dimension_M] News

Citizens of the small town of High Springs were surely entertained when 3 crazy girls skipped down Main Street. Why you may ask? The girls were none other than a trio of cosplay-holic cousins dressed up as Shrek, Princess Fiona and Gingy "Do you know the muffin man?" Gingerbread Man. The girls had previously made an appearance as the beloved Shrek characters at High Spring's historic Priest Theatre and were then asked by the owner to come back to the next showing of Shrek 2. The girls did, but were almost attacked by a hyperactive blonde little girl (who kept pulling on Gingy's gum drop buttons, lifting up Fiona's skirt and asking Shrek where did he leave Donkey at). The girls ditched the theatre minutes after the movie started and decided to take on the streets instead!

"I thought, maybe some hillbilly on a truck will shoot us with his rifle, but let's do it anyway", confessed Mayleen, the leader of the pack, "but people reacted in such a positive way! We got smiles, hand waves, hoots, thumbs up, honking car horns as a nice reward and even a guy who was putting gas on his car asked us to take our picture!"

To some people these girls might have acted like crazy nerds...but to them it was just another unusually usual fun way to break from the boredom that threatens to slip into their lives. Like I always say: "Why be normal?"

Song of the Day

"You see I've finally woken
From a long sleep
I'm ready to jump
To make that blind leap
Coz I now believe
I have the power in me
I've got the faith baby
I can truly be free.

Finally Woken, Finally Woken
Child don't worry it's okay
The sun is out for another day
And I say it'll be alright (be alright)
Today's the first day of the rest of your life
Remember, remember, remember this, remember."

Finally Woken, Jem

Life is full of surprises...like the surprise visit we had today when a crazy horse running wild wandered into our backyard... I grabbed my camera (and almost got run over) but I did manage to take a few shots of our uninvited guest. Check this one out!



I spent all day at home today sewing the FLCL group costumes...they're finally done!!! Yeay!!! \(^o^)/ While I worked, I listened to two of my new favorite movies: "I'm With Lucy" & "Win A Date With Tad Hamilton"...I love them both so much...I'll probably rave about them tomorrow...too tired now...I must go to bed. (=_=)zzzz

Has anyone heard about 'meetups' or Meetup.com? I have. I found about it coincidentally as I was on one of my online searches for something else. Anyway, the whole deal about meetup.com is that through it you can join monthly 'meetups' in your city for any topic of interest that you may have (e.g. Japanese Language meetup, Cosplay meetup, Filmmaking meetup). Naturally, I was so excited and happy at the possibility of meeting others who would share common interests, so I joined. But I forgot that I live in the Gainesville area. I joined meetup.com last year and all I've gotten is emails of canceled events because not enough people sign up for them. For the same reason, my summer Japanese course at SFCC got cancelled...I had to return my unused textbook at Barnes & Noble...
I HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE! \(~o~)/

I've been wanting to start one of these blog thingies as a mean of staying in touch with my friends all around the world for a while now. Somehow, I never got to it, until I saw a friend's blog today. I thought it was so cool! Anyway, I'll do my best to report to you any exciting news and/or events that might happen here in my dimension, so bookmark this web page and STAY TUNED!!!

(^_-)x Love & Peace!

Ravings of a Picky Girl

Sometimes I wish I could go back to the days where I was a little more naive than I am right now. Ignorance is bliss...Knowing what you want makes the road very narrow. But "that's the way the cookie crumbles."

My 14-year old cousin made this portrait of me today. I thought it was adorable! I fear we have another artist in the family! (^_-)v

Song of the Day

"Somebody save me
Let your warm hands break right through me
Somebody save me
I don't care how you do it
Just save me, save
Come on
I've been waiting for you."
-Save Me,Remy Zero

Movie Quotes

"When finding the right person you need someone with the right similarities, yet all the right differences. Someone to read your mind instinctively, yet cover your weaknesses."
-Lawrence, The Very Thought of You

"Well, love you get over in two months. Big love two years...and great love...great love changes your life."
-Angelica, Win A Date With Tad Hamilton

"I don't know. It seems like there's enough thorns out there as it is. I think every now and then everybody's entitled to too much perfection."
-Lewis, Bed of Roses

"Guard your carnal treasure!"
-Pete, Win A Date With Tad Hamilton

“I have tons of flaws…Most of the guys I’ve ever dated thought I was a weirdo. You know? People would say to me, ‘Lucy, don’t get this perfect guy idea stuck in your head because that is not what love is all about’. But, Peter…Peter is perfect…I just know that we’re gonna be in love...for-e-ver.” -Lucy, I’m With Lucy

"Is it okay if 'this one' stays with you?"
-Cheza, Wolf's Rain
