I'm not posting with a subject! I feel so scandalous. I usually don't do this but I don't really want to think of something to put up there...

So what else is new to me? Nada. I did get my sheets today -- the wedgewood ones. It's a different blue than I had pictured... I thought they would be a lot lighter in color, almost faint but it turned out that it was a bit more darker than I thought it would be. It's okay but I can't see myself sleeping on them. As try as I might, I can't help but think of them as sheets more for a hospital or a retirement home rather than my dorm. Oh well, I'll deal with it.

Today I should get my laptop! I'm very excited! Only a few more hours until it gets here... It's currently in Portland. After starting out from Ohio and then going to Kentucky, it is finally in the state of Oregon and will be getting there to me today. Yay! It's going to be a good one definitely so I'm happy. I can't wait to get to that dorm and use it on the internet.

I've downloaded a bunch of manga but they're all yaoi ones and my parents are watching the Olympic reruns (late night Olympics) on NBC and I'm starting to be a bit self-conscious. This is also a first for me since I usually wouldn't mind it if they're in the same room as me when I'm reading yaoi. I think I know know how Masha feels...

I was downloading Wild Striker (must finish this series before leaving...) but then I made my mistake of going to my LJ friend's page and saw that [livejournal.com profile] kuina had uploaded a rajipuri track and coincidently, it's one that I don't have. So I stopped my WS download and started the rajipuri. I feel bad but now it's more of an inconvenience since it'll finish at 5:30 AM and I don't last it till then (which I really don't want to), it means I'll have to wake up again to make use of the time... *makes a face* Not looking forward to it obviously.

I was just peeking at the TV. It was Svetlana Khorkina from Russia on floor exercise. She was brilliant but I really liked the music she chose for her routine. I wish I knew what it was because I really liked it! I wanna download it but the chances of me finding out what it was is probably like impossible. Oh well...

I felt so disappointed after watching the Womens Group Gymnastics Finals... China didn't even metal!!! :( Just like the guys! Disappointment! US did well (silver) but still I wish China could have been up there with the gold... There's still individual metals but I'm still very disappointed. I didn't even have the heart to watch the entire thing... Sherry is a big China supporter this Olympic year.

Did I talk about the Japanese men in Gymnastics? As much as I love Japan, Sherry will love the Chinese team furthermost. It's nice they did so well but I saw the best pommelhorse ever and it was beautiful. Just as I saw a lovely uneven bars from the Chinese girls. Why China??? You are so great yet you mess up when it comes to the time to do it well... You should be able to handle the pressure already!!!

But I am glad that US did win the relay. I was rooting for Ian Thorpe (so cute!!!) but only him and not the Australian team. I fell in love with Ian last Olympics and it's carried over from then... Michael Phelps is just not as cute. He's more awkward looking than anything and I don't really like his voice.

On the US side, Roddick managed to win his match against Tommy Haas of Germany. It was a whacked up match. Andy lost the first set, won the second, the third it was back and forth the entier set. It finally was 7 all (apparently there are no tiebreaks and you have to win by 2 games) and Andy got to 8-7 and then in the very last game, there were so many match points... It was deuce for so long, advantage went back and forth until finally Roddick won the match 9-7. I seriously don't understand why he was having such a hard trouble with Haas. I mean Roddick is the second seed!

But unfortunately today, Federer was knocked out. I was so disappointed with that too! Federer is the best! I was so looking forward to a gold metal match between Federer and Roddick and now he's been kicked out! :( He must be so disappointed as well considering it was one of his three goals for his year. He acheived two of them (winning Wimbledon, winning another major -- French) but he couldn't get the gold. Too bad!

Ah... I feel like there's something else I wanted to talk about but now that I've been jumping every where, I can't really remember what it is... Ah, gomen. Maybe I should have left myself a clue in the subject...

Oh! I do remember one thing. I finally got off my lazy ass and tried looking for the books I'm going to need at NYU and I only found one of them for my Bio class and I did find it on Half.com from an Oregon seller! Amazing! For $78.95 too... Damn, textbooks are expenisive... I knew that but now I have actual dollar amounts to go with it... I half want to buy it now and half don't. I probably won't since I don't have much time left until I leave. I'll worry about it then. It'll all be good.

Zen zen daijoubu, ne?

Well, I guess that's all for now. Oyasumi-nasai! Ja ne!

edit: I didn't want to put up another entry so I'm just adding it to this one. I've decided to stay up but that's not what I wanted to say. What I wanted to say is that I am never ever going to download another HP doujinshi without finding out what the pairing is. *shudders* HP/RW...That's...that's...so wrong. I might not be into HP right now but even I still have standards. Man, thank god I skipped to the end to see what the pairing is... I'm going to have nightmares about Harry confessing to Ron and Ron saying that they'll never fight again... Ewww!!! Man, I feel so dirty... I think I'm going to delete it... Yes, I think I will. Bye-bye!
