Of Kitties and Pigs

So, I have Midnight sleeping on the couch next to me. She used to not do that before, either chilling on the floor or the back of the couch, but i kind of like it. She's in petting distance and it's like snuggling without really snuggling. So, yeah, I really like it.

I went and bought The Red Pyramid yesterday. I'm looking forward to reading it, but I have to finish Warbreaker first. That's a pretty good book by the way. I recommend it to all you fantasy fans.

but Mistborn is by far the awesome-est!

so, I've noticed a mistranslation I always do. in japanese the swine flu is called "buta flu" which literally translates to pig flu. So, when a conversation comes up about buta flu, I naturally say pig flu. In return, I get confused looks and "Pig flu? Don't you mean swine flu?"

Dunno, in my book Pig sounds better. But, that's me: the returned missionary from Nihon.

So. . .Mother's Day talked to Jones chourou and Webster chourou. That was pretty fun. I also begged for some goman dressing from jones chourou. I miss that stuff. I don't care for salad dressing but that is seriously the best. I'm going to hog it like I'm currently hogging The Red Pyramid. I feel kinda bad. Steph doesn't know I have it and she's itching to read it. But, when I'm done she can have it then.

So, yeah, all this random update thingies brought to you by. . .JEKKA GOATY SENOJ!!!

boop, bleep. blawp.

New awesome trialer!!

So, I lack technology skills to upload the video to be viewed from my blog but if you go to www.iwatchstuff.com and look up the latest trailer for Avatar (REAL Avatar not Blue-people--which I'm thinking of calling Ratava because it's the complete OPPOSITE from the REAL Avatar). so go watch it. It's so cool! I'm excited! July 2!!! Yay!!! Yip yip!

yeah, that's all. *poof*

Apologies

So to all of the devoted fans out there--oof! *gets knocked off the high box* Okay okay! But, I wish to apologize to all those fiends and minions who read this blog. There are three reasons why I have not been up to date or as random as I used to on this blog:

A) It was finals week
B) I had a lot of projects requiring extended hours on the computer (which equals me becoming sick of the computer)
C) I was absorbed in a really good book.

which reminds me. . .HOLY COW!!! MAN!!! MISTBORN IS AWESOME!!!
I finished reading The Hero of Ages, the third book in the Mistborn trilogy by Brandon Sanderson. It was so cool! Holy cow!! *goes crazy and bounces off walls*

I almost didn't know what to read after finishing a book like that. It left me reeling and at a loss for direction. For those of you who are bookworms, I'm sure you know that feeling quite well. You have no idea what sort of book is worthy of your attention. That's how I felt.

Luckily, there's another book by Brandon Sanderson that I haven't read yet so that's the next one on my list.

so, yeah, random update by Jekka. I'm home now for the summer, which means relaxation mingled with responsibility, and job hunting. :P

But, no homework!!! Yay!

This message was brought to you hastily by Jekka G. Senoj. Drink lots of water and enjoy your day!

Facebook

I know, I just posted and I'm posting again. Don't die from a myocardium infarction!

yes, that was really fun to say.

ahem, so as many of you have probably found out to your surprise and shock (no myocardium infarctions please!) that I recently started a facebook account. yes: about time. No: I won't be on it very much most likely. this week is insane with papers due, projects to complete, a nasty test to study for, and nothing but stress to make the cardiac contractile cells work their measly little channels out.

yep, so with that, off to go home and study and read and study some more. and when I say read I mean textbooks and nasty graphs and research papers.

so, toodles!
and if you don't know what a myocardium infarction is, go to wikipedia. It'll tell ya!

Turkish Angora

Newsflash: Midnight's breed

What is it? What could it be? Turkish Angora!

If you just rolled your eyes please raise your hand. *counts* Wow, really, so few. I guess not a lot of people understand my love for my black furry kitty. But, after consulting an encyclopedia out of curiosity. I with my family figured that she is a rare breed of cat known as the Turkish Angora. Medium-length silky hair with tufts inbetween the toes and coming out of the ears. There was also a picture that looked like her except the cat was white.

So, we have a rare cat that's taken over the house and is the devil's very pet. I love my house! (in case you're wondering, Peej is part siamese and leo is tabby. Katie, as many of you know, is a canine of the breed Holus digguslotus).

So, yes, another update to random. It's conference week and on top of a mission reunion where I got to see a lot of friends and ai suru Hill kaichou and Hill shimai, my roommate and I got tickets for the Saturday morning session of general conference. It was my first time going and it was really cool. Much more fun than watching it on TV. Only a few protesters were out. I wish I had gold stars to give to them because it was really cold and windy and they showed a lot of devotion in coming out with the rest of us. I hope they weren't out the whole time. That would have been freezing.

So, yes, my cat is a turkish angora. she is a turkey. MUAHAHAHAHAAAAA!
*poof*

P.S. And to whoever is posting in chinese: I don't speak or read chinese. chuugokugo ga wakaranai shi mattaku hanashimasen. nihongo demo ii desu ga kondo, eigo de kaite nokoshite kudasai. arigatou gozaimasu.
