Can I just say Yaay?! I got a laptop!!! Its a Dell Inspiron with upgraded RAM! I called Ranulf, cause I name every electrical thing I own. Like my Gamecube is Germanicus, and my X-Box is Xerxes, and my SP is Dortaneil. It's sad, I know, but it is me we are talking about here. Annnnnnnyway, I haven't been on much, what with school finals and then my parents went all psycho and wanted to spend time with me. And the parties! I had seven parties to go to in the past two weeks!!!! Thank goodness one of them was mine. Oh, well, they were fun! I sang, I danced, I held a five foot python, and then I went to the awesomest park ever!
Ooooookay, gonna stop talking now or people will think I've gone off the deep end.

Happy Holidays All! I hope you are going to have a wonderful Christmas, or whatever it is you celebrate, I know I am! I have spent my day in exile at my Grandparents house watching Love Actually and Men In Black over and over again. I just wanted to wish you all a wonderful time during this holiday season as I won't be able to get to a computer at all in the next few days, due to the large amount of time I am being forced to spend with my family. Not that I really mind, much. Anyway, have a nice time! Love you all!
Okay, I just wanted to tell you that I haven't been on here much because of three things:
1) My school found and blocked Gaia and all web translation sites so I can't get on here from school anymore
2) I have been majorly busy most weekends, what with the Holidays fast approaching and the large amount of studying and homework my evil school is dishing out to me
3) I have rediscovered how much I like neopets, again. I know its kinda pathetic, but I love it! If any of you crazy people reading this want to check my name out, search for makagomelache or one of my pets DracosSun or HalisstraMelarn. Don't ask about the screen name, I have no idea why I typed in that, but that's the way it turned out. Yaay!

I am going to live up to my promise and actually start talking about anime now! Yeppers!
Okay, so I have recently started watching Cowboy Bepbop. Well I say recently, but its really been like 6 weeks, so yeah. Anyway, its really awesome show with a crazy cool ending theme song, Real Folk Blues, super good. I think my favorite character is Ed, which is odd for me because I usually hate the girls in anime shows and I pretty much always fall for the aloof guys or the mean guys or the idiots who do crazy, stupid stunts. Could this be a sign of growth? Naw, I didn't think so either.
Oh, and I really must mention my undying love for Fruits Basket. I only have the last two disks of the anime, but I own 1-11 of the manga and I cannot wait until December so I can get number 12.
The funny thing about Fruits Basket is that Natsuki Takaya, the manga-ka who made it, did such a good job at fleshing out all the characters and made them all so radically different, that I can help but like all of them. Another cool thing about Furuba is that I actaully like the main girl. I normally hate the main girls because they are always so whiny and annoyingly sweet, but Honda-san is so nice that the super sweet image just fits her like a glove. Although, I must admit that I hate her voice in the English version of the show. I never was a fan of Laura Bailey. I think that if I had seen the English version only, I would hate her just because of how damn squeeky her voice is in the show.
Gotta go now. I'll finish and edit this later.

Despite my proclamation that this was going to be an anime oriented journal, I have put very little mention of anime actually in here. Oh well.
Lately my gandma has been taking me to see plays with her and a bunch of her friends, not exactly fun but she does so much for me and my sisters, I figure and make her happy and come along. Besides, my grandpa usually makes it worth my while at the gift shops or with just plain cash. And the meals you get with your ticket and table are good, and the plays aren't that bad either.
So tonight I went with my grandma to see The Sound Of Music. I didn't remember the plot at all and I was kinda eager to see it, plus Granpa gave me $20 to get something at the giftshop and I only ended up spending 5, so he let me keep the rest. Anyway, this was at the 15 minute intermission.
Up till then, the play had been pretty good and you should have heard those nuns singing! It was crazy. They all sounded like they could break glass with just their voices. It was so pure sounding! Okay, okay, back to the story. So I went and sat down with my little item from the gift shop, playing with it and the play started up again. More singing and dancing and all the sudden this wall paper thing drops down.
It was the scene to the Abbey where part of the play takes place and in the middle of the big paper like thing there is this fake stain glass window, very pretty. The next thing you know, all the nuns leave the stage except the the head nun, I forget what they called her. She is looking at the stain glass "window" and as I looked I realised it was turning red from some lights and then the red lights began to dance around, like fire. This wierd music started and out of nowhere the Nazi symbol appears in the middle of the fire and Hitler's voice comes on, speaking in German. I never knew how evil he sounded! Anyway, he gave a speach that I didn't understand, not being able to speak German and all, and then it slowly faded out with the cries of the Nazi's screaming something.
That kinda put a damper on the rest of the play, and I just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. I asked my grandma about the war as the we left the play when it was done, and she told me how horrible it was. They had to turn out all their lights as soon as it was dark and anyone who had lights on got in big trouble. She said they made them do it because if someone was flying over head with a bomb, a lighted area would make a nice target for said bomb.
Then she and all the other old people who where with us started telling me more about how horrible the war truly was. I tell you, it was sickening some of the stuff they told me. I know this now: I will never live through a World War like. Never, I honestly think I would rather just die then go through what everyone went through in the first two wars.

Why do I do it? Why? I watch scary movies, I KNOW they are going to scare me, I know it, and yet I watch them anyway. I am paranoid enough as it is. I mean, I still sleep with the light on like I did when I was little, but I am so scared that a monster or a murderer will see my light on one night as he/she/it walks down the street and decide it will want to kill me and my cat, that I have put a blanket over my window to keep the light from filtering out and if ANYONE moves it, I get so scared that I won't sleep in my room. Only problam is, once that happens I have to go sleep out on the couch, but that scares me too because there is a window directly across from the couch and I am terrified that a peeping tom will look in through the blinds if they are open and see me! So I have to close them, but I am so scared while I do it because I think that someone, or something, will appear at the window while I am closing the blinds!
The reason I first started sleeping with my light on when I was little is actually quite sad. It wasn't because I was afraid of the monster in my closet, though I was convinced there was one in there, the real reason was this; my parents used to leave the hall light on for us when we would go to sleep so we wouldn't be all alone in the dark and when my cat used to come down the hallway into my room she would always arch her back in my doorway and because she's mostly black and it was pretty dark in my room, all I would ever see is her shadow stretching out behind her and I used to be afraid that it was an armadillo. Did I mention that I have an irrational and paralyzing fear of armadillos? So I started sleeping wiht my light on so that I would see Pillow and know that it was her and NOT an armadillo.
When I go out into the garage, I have to carefully reach my hand out and turn on the light, then I real quick shut the door so anything that might be lurking in my garage can't get me. When I finally do open the door, I have to have it open all the way and I have to make sure, like a hundred times, that it's not locked. Then I real quick like get what I need and run back into the house, turning off the light as I pass, slam the door shut and lock it.
And all this goes on BEFORE I watch the dumb movies. I won't even tell you what I am like after I watch scary movies, because it's just kinda pathetic, not that anything else I do, ISN'T pathetic. So at this point, you are probably thinking, "Either this girl is lying, or she's nuts and she needs some serious medical attention." Well, I am not lying and I cannot exactly say that I am not nuts, because I do have some deep seeded issues, and events in my life have led my to beware of things lurking in the dark.

UNWRITTEN LAW LYRICS
"Save Me"
Had a bad day, don't talk to me,
gonna ride this out,
My little black heart, breaks apart,
with your big mouth.
And I'm sick of my sickness
Don't touch me, you'll get this.
I'm useless, lazy, perverted,
and you hate me.
You can't save me,
You can't change me,
Well I'm waiting for my wakeup call,
And everything, everything's my fault.
Went to the doctor, and I asked her,
to make this stop. (whoa)
Got medication, a new addiction,
******** thanks a lot.
I had to relapse, I'm bad at rehabs
It ruins everything. (whoa)
So point your finger, at the singer,
He's in the pharmacy.
You can't save me,
You can't change me,
Well I'm waiting for my wake up call,
and everything's my fault.
You can't save me,
You can't blame me,
Well I'm waiting here to take a fall,
and everything, and everything's my fault.
And I'm a death threat haven't slept yet,
Baby why the wake up call
I'm the bad boy tell the tabloids
everything's my fault.
Whoa whoa whoa yeah, write it write it,
Whoa Whoa whoa everything's my fault,
everything's my fault.
I went to heaven, but couldn't get in,
For what I have done.
I said please take me, they said you're crazy
you had too much fun.
You can't save me,
You can't change me,
Well I'm waiting for my wake up call,
and everything's my fault.
You can't save me,
You can't blame me,
Well I'm waiting here to take a fall,
and everything, everything's my fault.
You can't save me,
You can't change me,
You can't save me,
You can't change me,
You can't save me,
You can't change me,(everything's my fault)
You can't save me,
You can't change me,
Everything's my fault.

I haven't been working on Scribes a lot lately, but I still hope to get it made on day. I don't plan on becoming a Manga-ka, I just hope I can get this on made. I dropped my other two ideas for Managa's, Whalesong never panned out and I couldn't get the characters into focus for Lists.
Anyway, I really cannot wait for the day when Scribes comes out, if it ever does. It kinda stinks though that I won't be able to do the art for it myself. I can get a few good pictures once in awhile, but I am not good enough to do an entire manga, let alone an entire series. My family is not being too supportive of my dream though. They informed me that I am not the right kind of person to make Mangas, but they are wrong. I don't want to Mangas as in plural, I only want to make Scribes, then I plan to study whales, particularly the Grey whales, Orcas, and Blue whales.

I thought this would be nice and depressing to have in here, so I found some quotes about death.
Death borders upon our birth, and our cradle stands in the grave. Our birth is nothing but our death begun.
- Bishop Hall
Anything I've ever done that ultimately was worthwhile initially scared me to death.
- Betty Bender
Om Asatoma Sadgamaya
Tamasoma Jyoti Gamaya
Myrityoma Amritam Gamaya
From delusion lead me to Truth
From darkness lead me to Light
From death lead me to eternal life.
- Hindu prayer from the Sanskrit - Universal Prayer
Men fear death, as children fear to go in the dark; and as that natural fear in children is increased with tales, so is the other.
- Francis Bacon
Even at our birth, death does but stand aside a little. And every day he looks towards us and muses somewhat to himself whether that day or the next he will draw nigh.
- Robert Bolt
I shall not die of a cold. I shall die of having lived
- Willa Cather
I said to Life, I would hear Death speak. And Life raised her voice a little higher and said, You hear him now.
- Kahlil Gibran

I do not know why I bother with titles, they are pointless. Anyway, I have decided that from now on I shall make my journals more anime related. Also, I shall no longer use contractions. Well, for this entry at least. I do not think I could keep it up for the whole journal.
Some people may have noticed that there are not 50 entries like it says there are. There is a good reason for that. I went through and deleted all the entries where I did not use proper capitilization. Also, I deleted some of the, ah, more personal entries and also the stupid story ones that were not all that funny. I kept some things, but I have also decided that I am not going to rant about my family. I do not think you readers need, or want, to hear about them.
So that is basically it. I am going now...*walks away*
