Bah. This insomnia is going to be the death of me...

I think I'm going to draw a larger pencil version of this:


Gojira! It'll be a pain in the ass, but oh so beautiful in the end. Now, to find the time to do it...

Shout out to Lazypuppy, whose ridiciulously catchy tune "Mitternacht" just shuffled onto my iPod. The audio doesn't do it justice though, I need the video...

There have been two things that have been irritating me lately: craisins and showers. Both of them are marvelous things, and I have both everyday, but they're causing some problems. First of all, I can never pour a handful of Craisins without spilling at least one. Second of all, I can never take a shower less than 10 minutes long. I try so hard to make them short, but for some inexplicable reason, my mind goes completely blank under the spray of hot water and I forget everything. It's a good way to relax, but when you're on the go, this is the biggest waster of time.

Blah blah blah, I need to sleep....Muffy over and out.

Today was a day for extremes. For the first portion of it, I festered away in front of the computer playing the pointless yet equally addictive online game Conquer while devouring scores of Hershey's Hugs, which Brittany had so kindly donated on V-Day. After deciding that this was most definitely NOT going to help me achieve my first New Years resolution (props to anyone who can remember it), I ventured outside and proceeded to jump rope for about two hours, during which I only worked on two tricks: the Dark Side and the Sunny Day.

They sound corny, yes, but they are sooo effing hard. I came back inside with welts, scratches, a chipped fingernail, and a lot of irritation, for I had succeeded in completing neither. But I'm damn close....

I'm listening to the original Power Rangers theme song on my iPod. This was mostly inspired by Aji's Power Ranger video. It suddenly occurred to me how much I miss those guys, especially the first movie. Gaw. They were like essential to my childhood. Every Christmas present up till I was 10 had something Power Rangers in it. (I'm also listening to the X-men theme song as it was aired on Fox Kids...but not as many people are familiar with this)

Muffy over and out!

Oh my.

Well I was up till 4:00am last night (morning?) working on the Valentine gift, because I am the master-procraster, if you know what I mean. And it wasn't even that elaborate. I'm just too picky with the details....

Yes yes, I know there are plenty of people out there who hate Valentine's Day. I hear it all the time. "False love." "Why can't you love me any other day?" Thankfully I'm not the one on the recieving end of these remarks, but it's just as annoying. Valentine's Day is a once-in-the-year thing, just like any other holiday. My family doesn't have a gathering unless there is a special occasion, but that doesn't mean we love each other any less.

And now, a sappy moment just to piss off all the haters out there....today was the first time I've had a Valentine. I had become so accustomed to spending February 14th in solitude that I was completely thrown for a loop when I discovered presents in my locker this morning. I must say, it's a nice change

And for all the folks out there who love free media
(That means everyone). The new Realplayer has a tricksy feature that allows users to rip music and videos and direct download into your computer, even from streaming sources like Youtube. Just make sure you enable the feature during installation....

Muffy over and out!

....
Neon Genesis Evangelion. I have no words.

Another jump rope video:

My double dutch routine from the 2008 World Trials

It's a simplified version of the routine, but we still placed first with it.

Senioritis has been setting in lately...I find it harder and harder to even begin on simple assignments, such as the Spanish workbook I should be doing right now . I'm not going to start getting B's or anything like that, but procrastination is winning the neverending battle, inch by inch.

I've been in a philosophical mood lately, for that I blame Evangelion, and there's this thing I've been contemplating for the past few days. No matter how hard anyone tries, there is not a soul on this Earth who can pinpoint the meaning of life. Maybe there isn't a meaning, or maybe there're too many....but it's all irrelevant if you aren't happy. Isn't that what we all strive for? Don't we all live our lives everyday in the pursuit of happiness? If you're happy then who gives a damn what the meaning of life is, because if you're happy you dont need one. All you need is to be glad that you're alive.

Sometimes I overthink things
