Free Hugs <3

Free Hug Count: 10 (For one day's work, I would say that's not too bad, considering the fact that, for most of the time, there weren't many people around anyway. I think I'll do it again in school tomorrow.)

So I went through and deleted all of the posts in here just now. Crazy, right? Oh well, it wasn't like anyone was reading them anyway. Plus my whole idea about "gonna update once a week with a whole format and bleh" was becoming nonesense. I actually hadn't touched this in almost two years. Which, according to four out of five mathematicians, is a lot more than a week (we never trusted that fifth fellow anyway).

Because of this, this post will essentially serve as my first ever post on here, the get to know me one and whatnot, but this comes later. I think I will also use this blog more often, and as a way to chronicle my last year of high school, and whatever else the world holds for me. Heck, in between this and my other one, who knows? I may even get some followers, and I may be able to show prospective employers what kind of person I am.

So! Getting to know me! Well, I'm currently a senior in high school, and yes, the rumors about senioritis are, in fact, true. Although...I think it's effecting me in the opposite way. For some reason, because I don't have much to worry about, I'm actually trying harder. I'm taking a creative writing course, among others, and am still continuing with my obsessive desire to learn languages. Now if only I could stick with one long enough to become fluent, I would be golden! I'm in my first year of Japanese (Watashi wa nihon ni ikimashita, I've been to Japan.), and we're learning conjugation like crazy. It's a good thing I've done this sort of stuff before, or I think I would be a bit lost.

I enjoy doing a lot of computer and art related things in my free time. Yes, I do consider video games to fit into both of those categories. I finally beat Heavenly Sword and Prince of Persia, yay me, and I'm working my way through Assassin's Creed and Mirror's Edge. Let me just tell you, the work on the worlds in all of those games is just gorgeous. I also have A.C.II on preorder ($60 later XP), and I can't wait to play that.

I also enjoy researching my roots. Ethnically, I'm 100% American, but bloodline-wise, I'm 1/2 Lithuanian, 1/4 Ukranian, and 1/4 Sicilian. My mother is the Lithuanian in me, and I have a goal to learn enough Lithuanian to hold a phone conversation with my grandmother, although I'm not sure if that will ever happen. I can count in it, however, something I'm a tad proud of.

Another big love of mine is movies! I absolutely adore going to see the moving pictures! The last movie I went to see was Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (for the second time). I also tend to be rather...voiciferous about my opinions of said movies, and if not those, then the previews. If not either of those, I was probably asleep, which is opinion enough for me.

Now for some dislikes. Loud noises, hot weather, and Bill O'Reilly come to mind, but I also hate hagfish (they are ugly little mofos), and pickles. I applaud that school for being the fighting pickles, but as for pickles themselves, I can't really stand to eat them.

On a final closing note, something happened today which I found really hilarious. Me and some friends were wandering around looking for lines of poetry, and one guy was so exhuberant about it. The line he gave us was, "With the kneecaps of a goddess :)". Yep, complete with little smiley face. He then proceeded to run, literally run, away. May you all meet such a fellow in your own lives!
