So, as a result, all I had to do was measure the voltage of the different cells that we had. Not cells in the sense of many tiny things, but like cells in a...well, it's hard to explain, but it's like a circuit that we had to make.

If someone has taken Physics (like me), then I think they'd know what you're talking about. If not, well...

...hey, who wants a pint of Ben & Jerry's? :D

Hmm...ice cream does sound good...I knew there was a tumultuous, abhorrid void of infinite sadness causing a deep feeling of mourning and loss in my life...but it's because I don't have any ice cream. Damn. I don't want to drive all the way to Wal-Mart though. If only this were some alternate universe perfectly crafted so that I could use Instant Transmission(tm)®© to warp to Wal-Mart in a flash to get ice cream.

...Or better yet, to make the damn stuff myself. Without effort. And with cherries and chocolate syrup already on top.

Heh, those cherries are correlated with cancer, I believe. :P

Ice cream is okay. I've never been extremely fond of it. My other family members, on the other hand... will eat an entire tub of ice cream. By themselves. Straight from the tub. Isn't that something? I think it must be proof of some sort of genetic thing. Lulz.

They never do. And they've been doing this for, like years. Lol. It makes me laugh. It's like, forget using a scoop and bowl; just take the whole thing.

I wonder what we'll be like, when we grow up. My mom says she was athletic and fit until she had kids. My little brother is fit, and although he can't "have kids", he can still get sick and/or lazy like she did. He eats so much sugar, I can almost sense that he'll be having issues with that when he grows up. My grandfather is diabetic, so that's kind of also not-so-good for him, since it can be genetic.

I'll probably not grow another inch. I think I've topped out at 5'2.5". It's taller than my biological mother (who was under 5'), so I guess I can't complain. And I'll still be stubborn and unmanageable, as I always have. Woohoo. XD

Cherries give you cancer? Pshh. Oh well, if it's true, you only live once, and they're damn good...the ones without pits, anyways.

Goddamn, an entire tub of ice cream...anything more than a bowl seems like overkill. That's the evil of portions, I suppose. With most people, if you put something such as that in a bowl, once it's gone, they're good. I guess it's like chips, if you pour a bowl full that works, but if you just eat from the bag you're probably going to eat way more unless you're very health-conscientious.

If we have chips, I eat from the bag, but I'll only take maybe one handful at most. And my hands are extremely small.

And yes, I'm pretty sure that the ones they put on ice cream and sundaes and things like that are carcinogenic. I heard it somewhere, but I can't really verify it, either, so...

Portion sizing is really hard for the average person. One serving of meat is the size of a deck of cards at most, and a serving of bread is the size of one slice of white bread that you buy out of the store. Most people have too much... I don't consider the junk food to be that bad, actually, as long as you don't eat masses of it. I lost a lot of weight last year without even trying, while eating pretty junky food (burgers, ramen, curry rice... things like that), all because I didn't eat too much of each. And I didn't pull any stupid diet moves, either, like cut out an essential group of foods or skip meals.

Hilarious thing is, I gained weight at Japanese camp. The food was all Japanese. I was just eating way too much. Somehow, my brain thought it was under its set weight or something, because I got that sensation to eat that's much like when you're in survival mode, lol. Needless to say, I kind of stuffed myself after the first couple of days where I practically ate very little. Gained about 5 pounds in 4 weeks, which I consider to be quite a bit. Anyways, that was funny, for sure.

I actually remember gaining weight in boot camp.. it was up to 180. Now I'm back to 170-ish.. maybe less, I dunno. I like that one better.

Yeah, I found it to be quite funny, somehow. Everyone says that if you eat Japanese food, you'll lose weight. But it's definitely about portion sizes, too. Rice, surprisingly, has a lot of calories...

I gained a pound recently. But it might just be normal ups and downs of everyday living, come to think of it (or time of the month or whatever). I just kind of worry about going back up again. Being overweight sucked...

But anyways, I got shingles. The cause is most likely stress. Oh well... it burns, but it'll go away.

Uh, you just do, I guess. Heh. It burns and itches like crazy, but if I can get myself distracted, I won't pick at it. I just pray that they won't turn into blisters, but since I have lesions... it's quite possible that they will. And then they break and might become scars. Ugh. That's... so disgusting. I have a ton that are grouped in one band, the size of a laptop mouse. I guess it's not that big of a patch, but it's really concentrated. And it gets irritated by my bra strap. If I was flat, I could go around without one, but alas, I'm not.

Thing is, I guess it's really quite common in old people, like, 50+ years old. But it's rare to have any cases younger than that. People usually get it once and don't get it again, so I hear. But there are some who get it multiple times. I really hope I'm not one of those people. I do have an opportunity to get my mom off my back, since we both know that severe stress can make you get shingles, and parents tend to be putting the most pressure on kids. This might even have a chance of being convincing, combined with my insomnia, irritation, anxiety, moderate-to-high risk of depression, and fast pulse. But I don't really have the heart to exploit it.

Oh, but there's nothing you can really do, I don't think. I'm taking Valtrex, which are gigantic pills, unfortunately. :P

I was going to post, like, yesterday (or was it the day before?) but I've been quite busy. My teachers like to give me busy work. And I've been having tests, which are now over, for the most part. But we're reading Heart of Darkness, which is extremely dense, and different from most other books that I've read. It's just... so boringly dense. I like books that move fast. It's only 100 pages, but damn, these are the slowest 100 pages that I've ever read, I think.

Well, I hope that works out for ya. I am busy myself now. We're getting into the exams for this quarter already, and I have a bunch of art shit I have to do. Plus, I have two more drawings to do and my portfolio for the gaming program I applied for is complete. My recommendations were awesome, so that'll definitely help me.

Good recommendations are always nice. Heh.

My midterms are on Thursday and Friday, but I don't worry about them too much. I'm fortunate enough to be able to retain most information that I learn throughout the semester, so it should be no big deal. Only reason why I might have a little bit of a pinch is due to my missing my first couple of classes tomorrow and Tuesday for my neurology things. But I still have confidence that I'll be able to pull through.

Well I found out I won't know anything about my entry into the program until maybe April 1st. Which is crap. But I have my hopes and confidence that I'll make it in.

I won't know about my epilepsy test results for a while. Waiting sucks, doesn't it? XD

I have a friend (well, I wouldn't really call her a friend... more like of an acquaintance-type person) who is trying to get me to do Hare Hare Yukai. I don't think it's humanly possible to look good while doing it. Just watching it makes me go, "Wait, what?"

The full version of the dance is here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Z2HpAE-QcQA. She says I'd be Haruhi (hair ribbons), but if a Mikuru (longest hair) isn't found, I could end up being her, instead. Looks strenuous. If not impossible. If it was any other anime we're talking about, I'd have flat-out said no, but this is Haruhi. And it's not like we'd be doing it in public, I don't think...

I just left a comment on that video - it's basically like a Japanese anime version of Baby V.O.X., the Korean pop group.

I'm pretty sure it's original. I've seen pop groups do a similar dance, but I think that they were based on the Haruhi one. Pretty sure. At any rate, I've been looking around for all of the versions of Hare Hare Yukai and haven't seen anything like that yet.

It doesn't look that hard...in the sense of there being no physically impossible anime-like insanity anyways. Just a lot of choreography to remember and quick movements. Like DDR to the super extreme or something.

I can do it, but not at that speed. And the last part, with Haruhi making a spin and striking a pose is difficult because it's hard to stop when you spin fast. There's only a couple of parts that might be difficult, but they'd still be difficult. And I've seen a lot of videos (I swear, this ED is a meme), but nobody can actually pull it off well. Some of them are hysterically funny, partly because guys can't wag their hips like girls can. DDR is fast, yes, but you only do your feet in DDR, and you have a support bar behind you.

I still don't like DDR, but that's just me. And I think you could do it, Kairi. As a matter of fact, I think you should do it. And videotape it. And upload it to YouTube and show those anime bitches up.
