I had a dream we were on the run from Homestead last night, the girls and I. All in our pajamas, thinking "If we don't tell them, we'll still have our rooms when we get back." It was the whole crew, too, from High School. Cramming into cars and driving around. We got stuck somewhere, and surrounded by guys, and I ended up fighting some fellow. I thought I was doing well, but I felt bad for it and his friends kept poking fun... it was weird. we then went to breakfast at some huge-ass table that wasn't quite full and drank lemonade and chocolate shakes. It all seemed very, very real.

Yesterday, early morning, Mom woke me up and told me she would wake me up again (it was 'first attempt') after she took her shower. I nodded and sort of dozed. In my dreams I heard a sound that was much like that of running water. I only realized a bit too late that it was the phone ringing. So I threw my covers off and stumbled out of my room, getting caught in the beads in my doorway XD Missed the phone, but there was a little knocking on the door. It was Fuyumi! <3333
We ate breakfast together and talked and it was very nice <3
She had to go off to work, though, and so we fed her soup and said our farewells <3

Mom and I then went off to the bank to deal with my ATM card and such, and came home to a ringing phone. Poor Katie had been calling and calling and so we made plans~
Tried to get in touch with Alicia, but her phone was being very, very weird. No one answered the door, either... so we got an idea to go down the side of her house, down the stairs, and go knock on the door to her room from the outside. XD It was fun. She was feeling horrible, though, so we vamoosed and went and watched The Forbidden Kingdom, which was just fun. I liked it a lot :D

After the movie, we all went to Red Robin's, where we met Jolene. (We had also picked up Emily and Alicia, who was feeling a bit better <3) It was an amusing dinner of good company and yes. Came home and watched Sweeney Todd, which I would have enjoyed more in the theatres, methinks. It was cool, but left me feeling unhappy XD;;
the ladies left 'round 1AM, and I was left to feel... er, nerves. Let's call them nerves.

Went to sleep way too late, woke up this morning, had breakfast, and then it was time to pack. Like a fiend! I'm still amazed we managed it all. I hope I'll be able to manage it in the fall.
I'm bummed 'cause I have two huge suitecases. I only wanted one suitecase, damnit! XD But oh well.
We went out to Kozue for dinner, and it was fine and well. Took a shower, painted my nails (XD) and added a few other goodies to the packs. Dad caught some bug, and got sick. Poor man. =\

So. Tomorrow. I'm both excited and terrified. I can't turn around now, though. I would hate myself... I'd have to hide myself from everyone, maybe run away to Canada or something... I would hate to have to answer the "Oh, I thought you were going to Alaska for the summer...?" things with a "Oh, I chickened out and stayed home." So here we go. It will all work out somehow. One day at a time, damnit. One day at a time!

Need to go to sleep. I hope I didn't forget anything.
I worry about home and the people here, both at home and the friends here, too. There's nothing I can do about it, though. Argh.

So. A meme for you. There, a subject change!

TECHNOLOGY

Mmm. A AkuRoku wallpaper from a popular fanartist/artist on dA~

Q. How many televisions do you have in your house?
One. Just one.

BIOLOGY
Q. Are you right-handed or left-handed?
Right-handed

Q. Have you ever had anything removed from your body?
I had my wisdom teeth removed, and I had a lump on my leg removed. (Hah. They said it would leave a scar like a razor nick. LIES. XD)

Q. What is the last heavy item you lifted?
My suitcases. 9_9;

Q. Have you ever been knocked out?
Nope.

BULLSHITOLOGY
Q. If it were possible, would you want to know the day you were going to die?
No thank you.

Q. If you could change your name, what would you change it to?
I don't know, really...

Q. What color do you think looks best on you?
Blues and greens? Red, sometimes.

Q. Have you ever swallowed a non-food item?
Yeah. A lego-hand in elementary school. Some boy stuffed it in my sandwich thing and I ate it. I thought I was going to have to go have surgery and cried XD;;

DAREOLOGY
Q. Would you kiss a member of the same sex for $100?
I guess? If I got to pick? Seems like an easy $100, but I've never kissed anyone before, so who knows.

Q. Would you allow one of your little fingers to be cut off for $200,000?
*cringes* Would my finger and hand and arm be drugged up and painless? Or would it be a Yakuza-type chop?

Q. Would you never blog again for $50,000?
Yes'm. It might get kinda boring. Would I still be able to at least read what is happening to others?

Q. Would you pose naked in a magazine for $250,000?
*laughs* Yes, but they wouldn't get their money's worth from me. I'd be damn embarrassed, too.

Q. Would you drink an entire bottle of hot sauce for $1000?
No.

Q. Would you, without fear of punishment, take a human life for $1,000,000?
No. I've thought of those chases with police, but I would never intentionally take a human life. I'd feel guilty for the rest of my days, and those days probably wouldn't be long after I did it. So... yeah. The money would be wasted, too, then.

Two? Maybe.
