again, i'm still alive :D

[perfectlyimperfect]

First of all, I'm so sorry flist for not being here for five days straight. m(_ _)m
To be honest, I have not checked anything here since Friday, so I have no idea what's going on in the fandom now. For that I really am sorry. I'll be the good LJ friend I used to be in the next few days, just let me catch up again. Please? *puppy dog eyes*

Let's just say that I have not slept well during the weekend, because I had a last term requirement I should have done (or at least started) a few days before so that I didn't have to procrastinate. Guess what, I did, and I only had a 45-minute sleep (and my dad *still* doesn't know about it. Oops). I did have a good sleep last Monday, and I think I slept the entire afternoon up until nine or something. Okay, enough babbling. Updates!

- I'm ashamed to admit that I haven't caught up with the fandom, so I'll start with my friends' journals, then the comms, and work my way backwards. I missed you guys! *squishes flist*
- I... haven't started on the cards yet. *hides* I kind of promised I would this week, so I'll start tomorrow! :DD
- (Guess I should really work here on my own laptop so I don't miss out on things like this.)
- I've been a YouTube freak right now. Arashi PVs (LOL I became obsessed with Nice na Kokoroiki for some reason XD), SuJu (EBH is awesome), Whose Line (I totally missed this) and well. Oh and I saw Ohno's Uta no Oniisan CM there. Why does he look so hot in black? *___*
And that's the reason I'm not doing anything else. That and playing with my DS. XD
- Doing memes for this post--I can't flail without knowing something to flail about. LOL.

Meme # 1: This was loooong due. Stolen from micodeavi.

Welcome to the 2008 edition of getting to know your friends! Try not to be lame and spoil the fun! If you get tagged, copy this entire survey and paste into your own blog, change all of the answers so that they apply to you.

I like that first meme, maybe i'll steal
29. What is a day on the calendar you are looking forward to?
CHRISTMAS~~
I KNOW SRSLY!! :DDD I can't wait.

[maiisaki.livejournal.com]

Ah! CLOSE! Close! One question again and you'll get the most desired answer for Losing Virginity!! XD That sounds wrong, actually XD

I did the third meme and it was interesting :) I got 18 or 19, 2-3 years older :) You drink caffeine quite much, Jess? It seems like you do :)

[micodeavi.livejournal.com]

hi fellow ehb watcher o/
omg yes youtube is like my bff now as well. ah, good luck on your grades! My report card's on friday too, lol.
eeh, I tried the 3rd meme and I only got 9. Am I really that kid-ish? D: and LOL Gimmick Game. It's like SO CLOSE. XD

[perfectlyimperfect]

It's okay for you (I think), since you intend to send it out for New Year's. :) My cards are due next week. XD;;

Steal away~ ♥ And I love love love Christmas, can't wait either! :D

[perfectlyimperfect]

Haha! Wrong or not, I badly want Gimmick Game for Losing Virginity! *shot*
XDD

That's cool, you're mature for your age, according to this meme ;)

I do like caffeine! How'd you know?? XD I'm up for any caffeine filled beverage: coffee, tea, colas. ;P Now you got me curious; how about you, Cindy? :)

[perfectlyimperfect]

Yesh hellow o/ (I love your icon~ ♥) These are times when I adore YouTube. Honestly I can't afford to download stuff if we're talking about SuJu, since I have HD space shortage or something like that. LOL XD So YT is my hero.
(I'm sure you have seen the Kiss the Radio clip where Eunhyuk and Leeteuk were singing SexyBack. XD)

Thanks~ ♥ Good luck on your grades too! Well, that's only a meme lol. And you're young!! D: Nothing to worry about.

INORITE. I felt like throwing my iPod when I saw Gimmick Game appear on screen. XD lasdkdfj Yes I am serious about that. :P

[maiisaki.livejournal.com]

And you're close from that XD *shot too*

Thank you <33

From the meme, like you said you make your own caffeine, but even if you didn't show that you like caffeine very much, I still have a feeling that you do :)

Me? Tea is okay, I could drink tea as much as I want. Colas is still okay, though I preferably avoid drinking cola (I just, well, prefer that :D), but I'm no good with coffee ;___; I don't drink coffee. IDK, something's wrong with me maybe XD I'm plain this way with beverage, I guess XD

[perfectlyimperfect]

Haha, good that you noticed that. :D I have a theory that I'm already immune to caffeine, in fact. L-LOL. Even if I drink caffeine before bed, I still get to sleep whenever I want to. Weird. XD

It's fine that you don't like coffee. :) You're normal, lol. It depends on the person, really. And it's good that you avoid drinking colas, it's bad for you! XD

[micodeavi.livejournal.com]

yesung made me fall of my chair with those glasses. It's just so awesome. <3 omg me too, I've been like, *resisting* to download them. Arashi has updates everyday and if I add suju in too my HD will probably crash down and burrn. Youtube FTW <33
(omg yes! I totally love the 'yea' part XD lol hyukkie should collab with JT)

thanks back at choo. omg tomorrow im so nervous and I should start realizing that I'm just still 13. Youth, dude. |D
and lol, I miss the times when I *almost* threw my iPod. XD and ikr, gimmick game just gives us something very spehshul. <3

[fallske.livejournal.com]

Does that mean something? XD
