With a super special awesome salutation, at that!

So, one of the side effects of becoming absolutely infatuated with Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series, a spoof of the Duel Monsters series with knee-slappin' jokes that this ex-fangirl deeply appreciates, is that I have begun digging the anime itself again, which is SO five years ago.  I probably really should have seen that coming. 
IF I WASN'T A GEEK BEFORE, I SURE AM NOW!

I still find Yu-Gi-Oh: GX absolutely ridiculous, which is the spin-off show of the original series.  Pegasus clearly says in the spin-off that Yugi, Kaiba, and Joey are the top three duelists in the world, so what?  I'm watching a series based on the adventures of NUMBER FOUR?  I think not!  The moment I saw that scene, I stopped watching the show and started waking up between ten and noon on Saturdays instead.  I do not regret my choice.  At all. 

The only full episode of GX that I've ever watched is the last episode, where Yugi whups Jidai something crazy.  It was awesome.

I'm now like, five notches geekier on the Cool Ladder.  Yu-Gi-Oh rants are worth it.  Or at least that's what I like to tell myself.

I actually did fully intend to do my AP Statistics homework today (lol so not so much yesterday, i was watching yu-gi-oh), and pulled out my textbook and opened it, pulled out my pencils, and everything.  TURNS OUT, I DON'T HAVE BINDER PAPER.  So I have to start tomorrow when we buy some more.  >_>. 

I sort of started regretting going into AP Stats, because I know I can handle the AP Calculus material (and because Ms. Tran, my honors pre-cal teacher, went apeshit on me after finding out i signed up for stats instead of calculus).  I just actually never thought I'd aim for UC Davis, and nursing majors in any of the CSUs only need Statistics.  Well, if I did take AP Calculus, I'd probably retake the class in college anyway, so I suppose it's alright.  Phuc can just tutor me in college, since he's taking the AP Calculus class this year.  Although we'd probably just end up just kissing if he ever tried to tutor me.  >_>

My tummy, however, got ever-so-slightly smaller after exercising daily for the last two weeks or so, then came back after that buffet of a birthday party at Phuc's house.  LUL.

Good game!

i was finally there to sit on my throne with my ridiculous hair

Bye for now!

NYAA.

I got home from New China Buffet (i think that's the name) about two hours ago and I still feel like all my organs are on the verge of explosion.  The oysters weren't as good as I remembered, but I had a new-found appreciation for their overwhelmingly sexy sweet and sour chicken and ice cream (not at the same time, lol).  I left very satisfied, and on the way home my parents and I discussed baby names for pregnant Ed and pregnant Ducky.  So far on the list: Chippy, Poopy, and Mitzy. xd

Sunday was slightly heartbreaking because it was Father Rey's last day at St. Paul's Catholic Church before his transfer to another parish.  I've been going to St. Paul's since the week before Easter, and Fr. Rey is the first pastor I've ever had where I knew his name by heart. >_>.  I choked up a little when my family and I sat down and I saw that all the choirs from all the masses got together for Fr. Rey's last Sunday, but then I cried during his Homily and he talked about how God's gifts are treasures and every Sunday where all his sisters and brothers gathered with him was his treasure, and I died a little at the end of mass when he said, "I wish I could say some beautiful prayer for all of you, but I'm all out of words, so I'm going to sing a song insead." and belted out, "Let our prayer be our light."  After mass, everyone went to the Parish Hall for a party in Fr. Rey's honor, although he had to leave early for the 9:00 mass, and my dad gave him a hug, although I was too shy! D:

While I am significantly chubbier since my "stop getting fatter" New Year's Resolution, I really do think that I'm more in touch with my faith.  Fr. Rey was a big help in that, as although I tend to daze out during the Homily, some of the things that Fr. Rey said really revolutionized how I looked at mass and the Eucharist and church.  Since I started attending mass regularly at St. Paul's, I've started looking forward to the Eucharist ("The Eucharist is a miracle.") and I'm actually starting to get to know my fellow church-goers, unlike in Most Holy Trinity and Our Lady of Peace in San Jose.

There's this middle-aged Latino man that I highly admire that goes to church during the same mass that I do, who knows many of the hymns and all of the prayers by heart, and jumps to his feet or his knees during mass transitions before anyone else.  When Fr. Rey said his last goodbye, I saw people hug him because he had tears streaming down his face.  It is the most vivid memory I have of that Sunday.

And speaking about me getting chubbier, I'm finally exercising again. o__o  As lazy as I am, I have to admit that I feel very good about myself after a productive workout.  Go non-fatty!

And speaking about fatties, it was my 2.75 year anniversary with Phuc yesterday. XD  + it's his birthday this Friday, I'm so excited 

AND I AM SO INFATUATED WITH YU-GI-OH: THE ABRIDGED SERIES.  It's been such a while since I watched something that made me giggle until I teared up a little and had to cover my mouth because my parents kept asking me what was wrong.  It's a compilation of Yu-Gi-Oh episodes "condensed into four minutes" each and are dubbed by LittleKuriboh into a spoof that rips on 4Kids, the show itself, and Mai's breasts to the max -- "I'm here to kick ass and play cards, and I'm all out of ass!"  Maybe it's because I'm an ex-Yu-Gi-Oh fangirl, but I really really appreciate the humor. xd  I would now very enjoy this Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series t-shirt and these buttons (HINT, HINT).  Cos the series tickles me pink.

Today's lesson: I really suck at HTML. T_T

you say goodbye, and i say hello

Bye for now!
