Just a quick update to get the Holiday journal off my front page

I'll get a proper one up tommorow...Gods, last day of the damned week....
Four days back from a two week 'holiday' (half of which I spent with a 38.5 degree fever, flushing all possible moisture out of my system, the other half frantically completing homework) and I'm already just as tired as before we broke up for the holz.

*flops*

Anywaaaaaaaays, to sum it up:
Exams. In two/three week's time. Poetry. Novels. Psychoanalysis on premature murderers in essay form. Statistics. Maths. More statistics. More maths. More numbers. More agony. Ecosystems. Taxes. Francophonie. Global Warming. In French. In France. Art Exhibition. Three boards. Not enough largescales. Paint. Paint. Paint. Bickering. Laughs. Missing DS games. Pokemon will NOT save. Devil May Cry 3. Reaaally want to play. The Game. Mine. Pushups.

Naruto
FullMetal Alchemist

And with that, I'm off to the theartre
Lenes out!

TEN THINGS YOU WANT TO SAY TO TEN DIFFERENT PEOPLE:

1. The date's drawing closer, and I think more about you every day. I know it seems silly, and you should be nothing more then a faint memory, but I miss you. Terribly so. And I sincerely hope wherever you are now, you are treated and loved every bit as much as you deserve it. And even though it seems impossible, but I know the ties that connected us in infancy are still firmly attached.
Orsolya, kedves kishugom, nyugodj bekeben.

2. Girl, you don't know how happy I am that I know you. You're the best friend I craved for all the way through Year Eight, and I can't tell you how much I fucking adore you. You're smart, so fucking skilled in art it should be illegal, wonderfully sick minded, and damn, too fucking beautiful. You always make me laugh and feel all warm and fuzzy. Thank you so much for accepting me for who I am, and thanks for growing up to be a complete and utter pervert and closet-dance-floor-freak. And stop apologizing. I love you just as you are. Don;t you dare and ever change. *snuggles*
Ten o'clock tonight?

3. Baby, you're full of contradictions. I want to strangle you at times, but that doesn't stop you from being one of the most important people in my life. How you manage to deal with me being such an utter bitch when in the full-blown moodswings, and manage to understand how 'Fucking decide and eat already, you little slag!' actually means 'lease eat, you're going to be hungry and I'm worried about you' is beyond me. But I'm glad you do.
Like Hime, you are just so much more then you give yourself credit for. I love you, imoutou, and you better keep your bald-spotted blonde ass in touch, and take care of yourself, or there will be trouble. *chu* Szeretlek, te hulye kis kurva.

4. You know, woman? Two little words. Fuck you.
Fuck your stupid, arrogance into the very depths of this fucking Goddamn planet. Fuck your behaviour for the past what, three Goddamn years and fuck it.
It would have been sweet if you just gave me a damn reason, you stupid motherfucking little cunt. Was my friendship an enough reason to grind my heart in the ground, make me feel like the stupidest, worthless piece of crap not even worthy to be stuck in the bottom of your shoe?
Were all those months of debaites, trips to the cinema, afternoons spent with laughs and jokes really nothing to you, something to be cast aside when you find better company?
I suppose, I will never be 'good enough' to measure up to your standarts. I have slipped down from the top of the class, don't pose a huge threat to you as the academic number one. My nationality, despite what you always claim, doiesn't suit your tastes either. Or is it the fact that I am merely half Asian and have no ounce of Indian blood in my veins that infuriates you?
You're not racist. Of course not. yet you cannot listen to anyone else in an argument when they dare to take a stand that is different to your own. You rais your voice and refuse to listen to the others. Maybe I don;t have the guts, or just simply long for my own piece to tell you that the stand you take and your repetitive bullshit is just sickening. However righteous you want to be, you're just being a fucking filthy hypocrite.
You hurt me so much, and still continue to. I want to force myself not to care. Because if one thing's sure, I don't need you anymore.
Well, I hope you enjoyed dumping me in the bottom of the ditch, slagface. Because I crawled out, and I won;t be falling back in.
Sadly enough, if I had the chance to do it all over again, I would do the same and rescue you from being abandoned, cold and alone.
Because I do miss our good times. And I wish i stopped tearing the wound open and let it heal, but I can't.

5. You do know that if something happens, it will be on you, cuz I'm still a minor?
Just joking. *snuggles*
Sweetheart, I think you know how much I luffle you. I love your humour, characters, your awesome ability to relate just about anything to anime and music, and that you share my love for absolute crack and pretty boys covered in blood. And the two of us are disturbed enough seperately, together's just chaos.
I expect that invitation to your wedding though. XD Just let me know whether your parents have agreed on that cosplay wedding, though ^^ And whether our password has changed or not C:

6. I've known you for nearly a year now, and boy, am I glad I do know you, babe. You took me to a whole new level of RP addiction, and I enjoyed every second of it.
I still find it absolutely insame and delicious on what shit we can come up with when brainstorming together XXXD I am so glad you got your muse back and we're RPing again XXD You're an awesome writer, and I am going to be so proud to have you as a friend once you're famous
Also, thank you for not running for the metaphoric hills when I was whining to you in my bad days. XD You're awesomeness on a stick, and I really hope we can meet up one day!

7. Did I mention I absolutely love your randomness, kitten? It sucks we can;t talk as much as we did. :C Something that must be remedied
You're about the best cosplayer I know, and just simply adorable. I hope I can cosplay with you one day, and shine out in all my n00bness.

8. Dude, despite the fact you greeted me with 'I'll kill you' for about a year, you're still awesome. XXXD I wish we had more classes together.
Although, I know you all just want to see us girls get naked and start wrestling, those rumours about me being a lesbian were really unnecessary.
Seriously, if I don't know my sexuality, how do you? XXXD
Anyways, you'll get the wrestling if you supply the mud, boy. System of a Down and Mindless Self Indulgence FTW.

9. Why, oh why were you like yourself? I hate you for the way you made me react to all those times, you stupid little asshole.
But in the end, I'm so glad I never ended up telling you how you feel. Finding it out on my own was akward and painful enough.
Thank you for the good times, though. I'll cherish those writings you shared with me, even though I'm just one of the many. And your humour and effort to copy all those DVDs for me was really sweet.
...you left your Darker then Black DVD with me, you idiot. (shakes head) Get on MSN so I can mail it back to you!

10. Dude, I love the way you take a stand against those bitches, and those phrases you use. But if I have to hear how mnay times you got drunk, where and with what chick, I am seriously going to punch your teeth out.
I do agree, Eva Mended and Jessica Alba /are/ pretty fucking hot.

Holaaaaaaaaa, darlings! How are yooou all

No, I'm not dead! Just my Firefox always decided to commit suicide when I'm in the midst of journal update (kicks it) Bastard, work or I'll abandon you for Explorer!
...yeah...

Anyways, I hope you all had an amazing summer!
Mine was both awesome and nerve-wrecking XXXD
Awesome in the sense I was invited over to Switzerland for a wekk by and saw breathtaking scenery and things I only saw in postcards before in real-life scale, and collected amazing experiences I will never forget. XD
Yeah. Not easy to forget the fucking damn PAIN of the next morning of a 6-8km treck on foot, descending from a fucking 3000m mountain...
Jesus, that was painful...
ANDANDANDAND. AAAAAAAAAAAAND.
I WENT TO SEE NIGHTWISH LIVE! >w<
It was raining and I got muddy to my knees and the line to get back was SO long and I ended up nearly getting trampled and frozen, but it was SO good.
Also, and came over to Hungary and stayed with us in our shoebox-sized flat, which was getting renovated....-_- And were incredibly sweet about it. I love you two. So, so much.
Thanks for being there for me.
It was nerve-wrecking in the fact the renovation was a fucking BITCH, and so were my parents' nerves...
And blahdiblah. D: Ah well. XD I survived, and a few tears never hurt anyone

And I started Year 12
It's so much better then last year. SO far.
But having only 4 subjects AND FREE PERIODS...I MEAN, NON-CONTACT STUDY PERIODS...are Heaven-sent lovelines...<33
I took English, Maths, Art and History...seeing as I couldn;t take French :C But I love the teacher and the course XD

My writing's struggling but coming back reassuringly
But TELL ME\
WHICH FANFIC DO YOU WANT ME TO UPDATE????

Speaking of which, I want to do a little feature of those amazingly lovely people who drew me some fanart for my fics <333
