BUWA-HA-HA-HA!!!!

At long last! After countless tries and lost Elixirs, I FINALLY DID IT! I FINALLY BEAT HIM!

I FINALLY KICKED SEPHIROTH'S ONE-WINGED ASS!!!!

the battle was long and tedious, and wrought with much of me jumping into the air squealing about how i was gonna die (in several different languages). but it was worth it. and now i can truly say that i have done all there is to do in Kingdom Hearts. i feel so complete. ^_^

i know i didn't really get anything out of it, other than a nice little sequence of Sephiroth exploding into white lights, Sora doing a little victory dance, and an entry in the Journal about Mr. Angst himself... but just knowing that i defeated him all on my own after all my hard work... that's satisfaction enough. ^_^


in other news: Naruto fillers eat my life. my cousin is on a downloading rampage now that he's got almost 300 gigs of memory to fill up with whatever he wants. we're almost done with the Mizuki vengeance arc. it took us a while to remember who Mizuki was, but we figured it out before the show went and told us. :P
just waiting for that oobaka to die now. shouldn't be long.

but i like the ending sequence during that arc. Naruto was playing on a PSX!! how cuuuuuute!! XD does anybody have any pics of that?

<-- new icon! made it myself out of the KH Manga. :P

i spent today glued to my laptop. amazingly enough, i got a crapload of work done on my Kingdom Hearts fanfic and that makes me happy. looks like i can finally finish off the Agrabah chapters and move on with my life. XD i finally stopped working on it a little while ago upon discovering just how tired i am. so now i am wrapped under some thick, happy blankets and pretty much ready to drift off to sleep. my sisters are downstairs, though... one's watching season 2 of 24 and the other is playing the Sims.

hehe... we had a Sim scare, too. for some very peculiar reason, one of her Sims wouldn't move. he had been stuck in the carpool for hours and hours and hours, accumulating dire needs to eat, take a crap/piss, talk to someone, do something fun, and sleep. we had no idea what to do. so i pulled out a cheat and moved him out of the car. unfortunately, this caused an even bigger problem. he just floated there. nothing really changed. he still needed to fulfill all those needs but all he did was sit there. but it was weird because his kids would walk by and wave at him, and he would look at them and smile. but other than that, he couldn't do ANYTHING. we tried deleting him (and then reloaded the game 'cause he vanished), moving him into another house (but he refused to. what a loyal husband), and just dragging him around the lot. then suddenly a little message popped up saying "austin has returned home from work with $X", and the man immediately died. he dropped to his knees and died. we had his son plead for his life (and succeed! yaaay!), but then even once he was alive again, he was still doing the weird sitting down thing. but it got even weirder, because if we told him to DO something, he'd do it, but he would switch between doing what we told him to do and floating on nothing on the other side of the lot. it all eventually fixed itself, but it was very funny (to me) while it lasted. :P

other sister almost lost her phone. i said that it probably slipped into a crack somewhere and died because it's so thin. right after i said that, she found out that it DID slip through a crack in the sofa. XD i'm on a roll!

now if only i could say the same for my driving lessons... -_-;; at least i have a permit now. i'm an official student driver! i feel a little bit better on the street now. if i get pulled over for my crazy driving, at least they'll know that i'm a crazy driver for a reason. :P i basically don't really understand how the brake works. i've always associated brakes with actually STOPPING the car. i didn't know that it slowed the car down, too. ya learn new things everyday! XD

tralala... i wonder if i should keep working on Kingdom Hearts...
i'm also disappointed in myself and my weak will power. i finally succumbed to watching cutscenes and excerpts and FMVs of Kingdom Hearts 2, and holy ****in' ****, i need to get this game ASAP. and boy do i mean NOW. the opening is OMG gorgeous and awesome and just one of the most amazing recap video things that i've ever seen in my young life. i love Utada Hikaru's new theme song and how well it works with the video and i can't wait to hear it in english. waiting eagerly for the english version now. and if it ends up coming out for the PS3, i think i'm gonna strangle something.

oh yes! school update: officially have no clue what in the hell is going on. got a letter from CalState saying that i need to have 60 credits, which basically means that i'm supposed to be a college junior, which confuses everyone in my family because the website said that 60 credits aren't needed. so we have to call the school and ask about that. i just know that a return to Chapman is highly unlikely, because my parents have issues with the tuition and because of that, i can't even register for classes. but that sucks, because i like Chapman... and CalState LA has a very very ugly campus that depresses and offends me. it just happens to be conveniently located in LA, closer to home and to church and to the place where my sister works. bwah. i have no idea what's going on... i feel like a college dropout. T_T

hehehe... y'know what the funniest carol is? "We Wish You a Merry Christmas". know why? because whoever wrote that song are crazy selfish little fiends. think about some of the lyrics. "now bring us some figgy pudding and bring it right here. we won't leave until we get some..." i don't know what in the hell "figgy pudding" is (or even if that's what they're saying), but i mean... how demanding! "we won't leave until we get some"... if those carolers seriously didn't leave until they got their stinkin' pudding, i'd throw rocks at 'em.

yeah, i'm awful. but i don't really celebrate Christmas, so i guess i wouldn't have to feel too bad about it. XD
the basic belief about "christmas" in my religion is that they've got the date all wrong, and all that santa claus & co stuff is just messed up.

but Happy Holidays to all of you who do celebrate some kinda holiday this winter! hooray!

we're actually gettin' ready for a party right here in my aunt's house. there's this crazy decorated tree in the other room that's really pretty when it's all lit up and the lights are all out.  i have this happy new top that i'm totally gonna wear. it's red. dark red. with this pretty golden dragon on it. ...yeah, i am so feeling the holiday spirit. XP

eee!!! i'm always excited to see my family in its entirety.

and oooooh!!! people keep putting up pictures and links to pictures of KH2!! noooo, i refuse to look!! ... okay, maybe just the opening... but no more! i'm done! i refuse! **oh how my heart aches**

bwah... time to go change for the party. :P

that makes three people who've said that to me this morning. which basically covers everyone who lives in this house (and then some). XD

i have arrived at Walnut. i shall now carry out the remainder of my vacation in this little pinoy town. :P i don't know why people think i'm going all the way back to the philippines (though i would most certainly like to... i had plans for if i went back to manila), but i'm just in Walnut with my relatives. my parents are flying in on sunday, so that's exciting. i really hope my mom got my cousin's copy of Narutimate for me... i'm gonna be sad if she didn't get it.

anyways... i left chapman at about 9:15, even though my sister arrived at around 7:30. i basically let my sister KO herself on my bed while i continued to gather my things. then took a shower and grabbed books, walked over to Argyros and sold my textbooks. i got $42. yay! cash! now i don't have to find an ATM to withdraw! it is always good to have cash. although i am a little bit annoyed that the huge Odyssey book only went for $1.50. i expected at least a round $2, but no. didn't sell Don Quixote because i like it. :D and since i stayed up until about 3 AM finishing off the Japanese language lab paper thing, i dropped it off at the language office.

i'm a little hyped up right now. had 3 sugar donuts and a cup of milk a little while ago. 8D (i hope that smilie looks as crazed as i want it to)

so today is the OFFICIAL "school over. vacation=very yes" post. but since that title is already used, i settled for somethin' else. :D

last night was funny. we partied in Caitlin and Phaedra (waaah, i don't know how to spell names! T_T)'s room. me, TK, Caitlin, Vinnie, Phaedra, Jared, and Alison at first. we all left once to grab beverages at Starbucks, and on the way back i visited Aaron. showed him the new KH2 goodness and we both had excited freakouts over all things Kingdom Hearts. we love Mickey's newfound badass-ness. also reconfirmed my want of a DS. oh my oh my. really. that little handheld never ceases to amaze me.
we then went back to Phae and Caitlin's room and continued our party. Amy-chan joined us and we watched Iron Chef. the instant we found out what the secret ingredient was, Victoria exploded from the door, pointing at Amy and laughing.
"SQUID!!!!!"
the whole time, though, we were playing this game. name a pop-culture/nerdy/geeky/anything that starts with the last letter of the word said by the person before you. it was oodles of fun. :D we played it from Starbucks all the way until midnight-ish, when Caitlin had to boot us out of the room so she could sleep. understandable. 8 o'clock exams are horrible. but yeah, it was soooo much fun.

so... life is good. :) and i shall celebrate my victory over all odds, and my slight gain in riches. 'course... i had to spend for gas and donuts. but hey, the gas at the Shell station in anaheim, right off the 57, was only $2.11!!! LIFE IS GOOD! and donuts are delish.

um... yes ... i just said "delish." XD

Aaron and I were talking about Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts 2 during lunch today. damn i love that game. XD it really got me into a Kingdom Hearts-y mood. unfortunately, i had to prepare myself for class and there was no time to expel my KH energy before class. FFC passed... i ditched the science Keck thing early and went back to my dorm. i couldn't wait any longer for Kingdom Hearts goodness. :)

begin Kingdom Hearts-ness!!

i got an e-mail from my beta-reader (which makes us happy) and so now i finally got a second opinion for chapter 18. oh yeah, in case you never looked at my fanfic profile over there *points to links on the right side of the page*, i'm in the process of writing a massive novelization of Kingdom Hearts. you can go read it over there if you want... it's massive though, so only read it if you have the time. i'm up to chapter 20 (part 3 of 4 for the Agrabah chapters). i love Aladdin and Kingdom Hearts to pieces, but these chapters are killing me. my beta-reader raised some excellent points and i was just like, "holy crap, that's right... how can i fix this?" i just e-mailed her back, and hopefully i'll hear from her again soon. *crosses fingers*

also learned more info about KH2... it's all so exciting! apparently Chicken Little (yes, holy damn, Chicken Little) is going to be a summon or something... -_-;; that's a little odd. but PotC, Tron, Mulan, Stitch, and everything else about that game gives me happy thoughts. and it's not like Chicken Little was a horrible movie or anything... it's just... very bizarre that he would make an appearance in KH2.

gonna bring my laptop to anime club tonight. gotta show Aaron all the beautiful KH2 trailers that have been released over the past year. yes. my massive collection of KH2 trailers.

i'm obsessed. i should probably see somebody about this. XD

*sigh* my love for this game continues to grow... and grow... and grow...

 

  

Join me in my excited fit! XD
