I am on the mend! All I had to do was drink icky yucky TheraFlu, which tastes like bad sourless lemonade. >.< It's gross hot, but even more undrinkable cold. Oh well; aside from the deep, dry coughing, I'm fine. I can swallow pretty normally and I don't have any headaches anymore. Here's to hoping I won't have to visit the hospital. It takes damn well near forever for a doctor to see us, and when he/she does, it's for like, ten minutes. -_- Stupid medical care.

Limericks! Neil and I worked on these last Thursday. I had the first line, the third line, etc. etc., and he took every other line. We alternated that way for the first "story" limerick.

There once was a man from Nantucket,
Whose foot got stuck in a bucket,
When he sat down to cry,
Another got stuck on his thigh,
And he fell down a well and went plunkett!

Upon whence, he wobbily floated,
Absorbing water, he then bloated,
He kept swelling up,
Which spilled his teacup,
And then, he sadly exploded.


Then Gen-chan joined us for the third limerick, which we lengthened to three limericks to tell a story about our Pre-Calculus teacher, Mr. Wallance (whom we all love for his Crunchie candybars and Canadian silliness). Again, I had the first line, then Gen-chan, then Neil, and like that for the rest of the "story."

Wallace was a teacher of math,
Who desperately needed a bath,
So grabbing some soap,
( Which he kept on a rope ),
The dirt would soon feel his wrath!

He ran the water luke-warm,
When he opened the door of his dorm,
And to his surprise,
He was hit smack in his eyes,
With bees, from a hive, in a swarm. (Isn't that clever?! my line, my line!)

He really did try to escape,
But he suddenly tripped on his cape,
He fell on a mace,
Ouch! right on his face,
Hum, what an odd math shape!

A lot of people don't get the last line, but since he's a math teacher, and the holes in his face make an odd shape... yeah, yeah, it's lame, but we had nothing better to do while other students were testing. ^_^;;

Bob Marley song! XD Well, it reminds me of that. And also, the song from the shops in Traverse Town, in the game Kingdom Hearts. o_O

It's been five days. I'm still sick. This is alarming. I haven't been this sick since I had the chicken pox in fourth grade. Jenny says I sound like I'm getting better, but then why does my throat hurt even more? >_> If things don't clear up, I won't be ready for the history debate on Tuesday, and it's more than frustrating to be in a debate but unable to speak. >_< I would bounce off the walls with pent up rage. Most people hate debating but I love it, especially when I can really get behind my cause. This time is on Radical Reconstruction vs. Black Reconstruction. We were assigned sides, and I'm on the radical side. Go figure.

I keep calling them bonus discs when there's only one, really, but since there's two games on one, I guess my mind sees it as two. Bah. Anyway, I've started Master Quest. o_o That room in the Great Deku Tree, you know, with the spiked rolling log? Well, I took a look at it, and was stumped for about two minutes, but I figured it out all on my own. I felt proud. Only the dungeons have changed, really; I thought the whole map might change, but it was not to be. Oh well; if they had taken the time to really revamp the game, then I suppose it wouldn't have come free with my reservation of Wind Waker.

I haven't caught up on the webcomics I like to read, either. I'm months behind on MegaTokyo, Arcana, Penny Arcade, and BMB; the only one I've felt any compunction to read is Your Wings Are Mine, and that's only because it's more like an online manga, really, so she updates irregularly with a few pages at a time, so it's easy to keep up with that. I think I'll check out Penny Arcade today.

Let's see... now that I've reserved my copy of Wind Waker in full, I can start saving up for Skies of Arcadia Legends. ^_^ I just love them RPGs, doncha know.

You know what I've always wondered? Why is Seishirou called an assassin? I mean, he kills people, right, but... it doesn't seem like he really assassinates anybody. When I think of assassination, I think of important political figures or celebrities being killed. Maybe if I read Tokyo Babylon it might make more (or less) sense, but at the moment it seems like he just kills random people. How is that being an assassin? Isn't just being a murderer or something? Yeesh. >_>

I only bring this up because I'm pretending to write about Luthien, GC's favorite character in my story (guess why -_-;; ), but I'm really think about playing Master Quest.

I love this song. What could be more fun than FFVII's Chocobo Theme song mixed with the Macarena? XD

I love having the bonus discs, but I'm reluctant to play The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remastered or even the Master Quest version simply because of one, itsy-bitsy, teeny-weenie (yellow polka dot bikini) reason.

I hate looking for the heart piece in the graveyard. You know, the one you have to dig up. It annoys me. I like getting everything I possibly can get as a child before turning into an adult, and it's really just luck on where the heart piece is. I could spend a thousand Rupees in the graveyard and still not find it. >_<

But it's nice to have it. I might play it after I write a chapter or so in The Silver Talons. I figure if I can manage a chapter or so every day on the weekends and maybe a page or two on weekdays I might get this story done before I die. ^_^;; I just don't want it to end. I mean, you spend so much time working on something, and just before you finish it you realize that after this there's just going to be an empty spot in your heart. The story itself is nowhere near being finished, but just the thought of getting around to finishing it is... unsettling.

(That's my new favorite word. But I forgot that I knew emanate, so I'm gonna use that sometime today, too.)

I need a Cloud plush. Or figurine. Anything Cloud. XD~~~ Oh, man, Cloud... I want my FFVII game back, but I lent it to Evin. -___X;; He wants to be a gamer but apparently doesn't want to spend the time to be one. I figure I'll get my game back around graduation time next year.

I'm posting so much today because I'm trying to decide whether or not to stay online and download music while I write or just log off and write. Hmmm...

Don't switch the blade on a man in shades. Yo.
I find your layout to be unsettling, but I suppose it's... well... nicely done. <_<;; Anyway, I'm back. See you sometime on MSN.
Never mind the post below. I have the bonus discs now. It turns out that GameStop would have waited 'til the sixteenth to release the games, but a lot of other stores were giving them out before the release date, so they decided to too. Ah well. I reserved my copy of Wind Waker, and paid for it in full. I feel blissfully happy.

I also bought my mom a card and a rose for Valentine's Day, but I wonder... I thought Valentine's Day was really just for couples. I mean, they have cards for grandparents for Valentine's Day now. When did it become such a loose holiday? Still, I felt bad for her since Dad's always gone, so I thought she might need some cheering up. Too bad she's not home. -_-;; She hasn't been home since around 10:45 AM or thereabouts; I don't know exactly when, but she was home before I took my shower, then after I was done she was gone. Baaah.

I am unable to talk well; my voice keeps cracking and it's painful to swallow, even spit. I'm really not supposed to talk at all, but when I got with some friends, it was just hard not to talk. Especially since I met some pretty cute guys. ^_^;; Matt is trying to set me up with Brandon, but he's... fourteen. <_< I have no problem dating younger guys, as long as they're not completely immature, but fourteen? Yeesh, he's practically jailbait. Not that I would do anything; heck, I feel awkward even holding hands (and I only did that a few times). I've never even kissed a boy. To be honest, it unsettles me. But I don't want to grow up to be an old maid. What am I going to do? I'll have to wait until I feel comfortable with the whole lovey-dovey thing. XP

I haven't really been keeping up with blogs, and I apologize. All my blog friends, I love you as much as I can possibly love people I know on the internet, and if we should someday fall out of touch, remember me every once in a while and I'll remember you.

...That was really sappy. <_<;; It must be the Cepacol or the fact that it's Valentine's Day and I'm alone.... T___T

GAME INFORMER LIED TO ME!!!!!!!!!!

They said that on February 16th video game stores would be taking reservations for TLoZ: The Wind Waker, and if you pre-ordered, you get the two bonus discs! BUT EVERYWHERE ONLINE AND IN STORES THEY'RE LETTING PEOPLE PRE-ORDER NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I MIGHT NOT GET A COPY! AND THIS MAY BE GREEDY AND SELFISH, BUT I THINK I'VE BEEN A GOOD KID AND I DESERVE THESE BONUS DISCS!!!!!!!

Stupid 4.0 cumulative can't help me now. >_< *grinds teeth in frustration* Alas.... ;___;
Hee. My voice is all funky. I sound so old and dry, instead of young and squeaky. ^_^;; It's a welcome change, except my voice repeatedly cracks and the coughing kinda sucks.

My friend Michelle drew me a lovely, lovely, LOVELY LOVELY LOVELY LOVELY

Hydro: *whap*
Pam: Ouch...

Anyway... she drew me a lovely picture of Cloud. ^_^ If it wouldn't ruin the picture, I'd lick him, he's so cute. XD

Hydro: I'm a figment of your imagination, and you're in love with a drawing.
Pam: The universe, she is a bitch.
Hydro: No, just very, very twisted.
Pam: Gen-chan suggests I should laminate it. Not a bad idea. Then I could lick him all I wanted.
Hydro: That's wrong. You need some healthy hobbies. Like partying. Or whatever kids your age do these days.
Pam: ...That's depressing. >_> I don't want to think about them. Euch.

My muse is back... I am writing well in The Silver Talons. In less than a year, I've written about two-hundred eighty-four pages. Maybe that's small potatoes to someone like Stephen King or Alexandre Dumas, but... it's an accomplishment for me, especially since this is pretty much a solo project. I'm so happy.

Not Raveth, Gay Heero!

And now... we shall listen to French rapping to a Final Fantasy VI song. XD Go French rapper, go!

SICK! I'm sick and staying home from school! I've called two teachers and asked for assignments... even ill I am still geek...

HAAA!

Maybe it's just the DayQuil kicking in, but this remix makes me think of Sephiroth, with an engineer's cap on, in a big rig hauling Meteor behind him as he runs down Cloud and the gang. I had a dream last night that I went shopping with Gen-chan and Sephiroth. Sephiroth was really nice, surprisingly, and has good fashion sense...
