I had hoped to have chapter 8 done this weekend, but as I finished the rough draft I realized there was a huge part of it missing. I had planned to just gloss over Gackt's new station and start chapter 8 with him coming back since the focus of the story is Hyde, but there was too much missing without it so I'll be writing that in. I almost ended chapter 7 with him in the new station, but didn't so... chapter 8 is going to be abnormally long and might need to be split into two parts. We'll see.

I definitely won't be able to get to it until Tuesday. I have a Japanese test tomorrow so I'll be studying more for that tonight and then I have the final draft of a paper due Tuesday. Haven't started working on the editing so that's going to be my Monday.

Also I've spent most of today and this week feeling crappy... having weak little headaches which are more annoying than painful. Then today my stomach was bothering me and I felt really nauseous when I was back in my room and if I talked to much with my roommate, I felt like I might be sick so I tried to lay down and nap for a while. I think it worked, I feel better... still have a headache and my eyes are still not quite adjusted which is odd since it shouldn't take this long. I think it's my diet that's the problem. Now that I'm back in college I haven't been eating as well since a) the food in the dorms sucks and b) the food in the dorms sucks. I've been having a lot of cereal... which is definitely the problem. I'm not getting enough protein at all and it's effecting my nails too. So no more cereal for meals, I'll try to get more meat and seafood in this week and see if that helps. 

I've also gotten hooked on the anime/manga/light novel No.6. Anyone else read or watched this? I watched the anime, which is a rarity since I much prefer to read manga. I'm glad I watched the anime though since it was actually really good practice for me. I could sometimes understand what the characters were saying without looking at the subtitles and I recognized various grammatical structures. And that one was good to see the characters moving. It's a really good anime! I highly recommend it. I only wish it were longer than 11 episodes... and there was more going on with Nezumi and Shion 

I also must write a belated birthday fic for Tetsu. I just need to think of an idea... I'll come up with something tomorrow when I'm walking to class or just bored in class. Since that happens frequently.

I need to update my dream diary too. I had a dream about Gackt and I shopping for a birthday present for Aki... and then one which I can't remember all of it, but it had Hyde in it! 

Back to studying! Maybe I need to drink more water too...

*pats* No worries, take your time! :D I actually finished my studying yesterday (thanks to me staying up until midnight all week to finish my assignments! XD) so today I was free to clean, polish my nails, pluck my eyebrows and watch some vids! :3 So nice to have a day off! :D I'll look at Evan later on, see if I can get anything done. >.>;;

How funny, I felt nauseous too yesterday after breakfast and dizzy, out of no where, but a couple cups of green tea and lying on my bed talking to my Mom helped me feel better. :3 Another advantage of a smaller school is better food, our cafetaria food is great! :D So great in fact that I limit how much I go now because eating there all the time made me gain weight last year. ^^;; Between that and Chinese take out, I've been well sated. There's no other places outside of campus you can eat at? :O You don't have a school supermarket or anything? We have one called the "Food Market" where they sell ready-made meals and such. Or, since you're 20 mins from home, why don't you have your Mom cook you dinner/meals and then you can bring it with you to school? :3 That's what I would do! Hope you feel better soon! <3

That's good! Taking a personal day always feels so nice to just relax. Haha good luck with that.

I think it's a combination of not eating enough and then not eating enough good food that's the problem. I had a big dinner and I feel a lot better. That's true, I imagine the food is better with a smaller school. Haha that's not good! Oh there are other places, but that costs money! I try not to eat out a lot, but if I'm really desperate I will. Ah, I could do that... I don't want to make her slave away though. Thanks! Hopefully you won't feel dizzy/nauseous again

[dohai-love.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

*nod nod* Sounds about right! Oh good! I'm just assuming so, because my older cousins went to a giant university too (University of Delaware) and they both were like twigs the entire time because they barely ate anything since they food was yucky. ^^;; STOP BEING SO CHEAP! XD That's what you have a job for lol! I mean, unless the places are expensive. Cooking dinner isn't slaving, especially since its for all of you and then you can take leftovers to school! :D My aunt cooks for me everytime before I leave for school, without me even asking. :3 I've been fine since yesterday, no worries! :D I HAVE AN IMMUNE SYSTEM OF STEEL. >D

[write_my_dreams]

Yup that sounds like dorm food. It's quite bad... but I had a great dinner tonight! Indian chicken curry with naan bread. Very tasty. BUT I LIKE BEING CHEAP! Nah, the ones I go to aren't. Haha that is true. That's good then!

See a damn doctor too, just in case!

Urgh, anime/manga... I sort of miss having a manga to read. I'm only keeping up with the weekly Bleach updates and monthly Kuroshitsuji ones. Stupid exams and whatnot. At least they end this week. Once they're over, I plan to start fixing all the jigsaw puzzles I've accumulated first (my mom won't let me buy any more until they're done) before reading Deadman Wonderland. No. 6 sounds pretty interesting too, though – sci-fi?

Haha, way to go on understanding the anime! I understand that thrill. あなたの日本語はだんだん上手になりますよね。

[write_my_dreams]

My second year of high school has turned me off of seeing doctors unless it's absolutely necessary. I think the problem is just food.

I'm more into the music than anime and manga, I barely ever read manga anymore. I keep up with Kuroshitsuji but I lost interest in Bleach ages ago. Yeah stupid exams. That's good that they end this week! Haven't they been going on for a long time? That sounds like a good plan. Yes, it's sci fi. This is where you can watch the episodes with the subs - http://www.animeultima.tv/watch/no6-english-subbed-dubbed-online/

It's always such a nice thrill!

[b-sim.livejournal.com]

I hope that's the case, then. ♥

Oh, exams? Yeah. These are the major ones we take in year four of secondary school so they've been preparing us for it for months, so yeah, I guess it could seem like it's been going on for really long. But they were finally over yesterday, fuck yeah!

Hmm, I'll give the manga a try first before deciding whether or not to watch the anime. I usually don't like anime because of the "oh so good" quality. But I've been seeing anime with better quality these days, so maybe, haha. ♥

[write_my_dreams]

I haven't had a problem since then. I've been making sure I eat more food. My problem was that since I live in the dorm, the food isn't that great :/ There are some days where the food is really good and others when it's just crap. So I was just having cereal for a meal, which is why I felt like crap later because that doesn't fill me up.

That's awesome that they're over! I bet that feels good to be able to relax. When do you get your results back?

The novels the series is based on were just finished this year, so the manga and the anime are all new. There's only a few chapters of the manga up but so far it's good. I just don't watch anime in general because it messes up the storyline too much... too many changes, too much filler. And I always have a problem with the voice actors haha. That's good that it's getting better

[lunafair.livejournal.com]

Meeh, I hope you'll feel better soon :/
Diet can be a pain ... >.<

Also ... YES!! I know No.6, well the anime :D
Sadly I've only seen like ... well only a few episodes ... stupid country I live in ...

[lunafair.livejournal.com]

Oh!
And good luck with your test!! :D

[write_my_dreams]

I made sure to eat more today and I haven't had those problems so I think it not eating enough that was the problem.

It's a good anime! I watched it online, I don't know if it's available in the US...
I'm working on finding translations of the novel so I can read it in its most original form. I want to write NezumixShion so bad, but I have jrockers and OC's hogging my muses and my time XD

[eadwine63.livejournal.com]

yes yes, take your time! and try to eat healthily (ignores the fact she doesn't really eat that healthily at school either but maybe better than you since I cook my own food or eat out. xD)

you probably already had the Japanese test, but still, I hope you did well!! ^_^

[write_my_dreams]

Ha, eating healthy is practically impossible in a dorm. I'm sure you eat better since you can make your own food. There's really no chance to do that here, and eating out can get expensive...

I did, had it yesterday but I think it went well. I hope it went well XD

[a_deux_vitesses.livejournal.com]

Yay for abnormally long chapter~

Uh, yeah, just noticed how behind I really am since your test was like 4 days ago... But anyway, hope all the school stuff went well.

I'm sorry you haven't been feeling well. Hopefully you're better now. And I hadn't really thought about having cereal too often hurting my health; I eat it as a meal so much...

Haha, just talked about No.6 in the message I sent you~ It does feel great to understand a bit of what they're saying, I feel that way with song lyrics too ^^

I saw your fic as I was scrolling down, will read it soon. And posting my dream entry will be done soon too. I compiled the old ones and wrote out the new ones (just have to type them), but for some reason, I've been so lazy with actually updating my journal, sorry...

[write_my_dreams]

I'll finish it this week, hopefully

School stuff did go well. Well, I was feeling better. Then yesterday I woke up at 5 AM because my throat felt super fuzzy and I was horribly congested. It's gotten worse since then and I slept horribly last night so I'm just curled up in my PJ's with a fever. Bleh. Cereal just isn't filling enough for me so I'd get these bad headaches all the time, but I make sure I eat more and I've been fine now

Haha I'm making a girl on my floor watch it with me this week so we can rave over it together. It does feel so nice to understand the Japanese.

I hope so, I look forward to it. I need to update my dream diary too

[a_deux_vitesses.livejournal.com]

It sucks that you got so sick again :( Are you better now, maybe you could try some medicine or something since you don't want to go to a doctor? *hugs*

Awesome ^^

It'll be up by this Sunday Honestly, I feel that if I don't make a deadline, I just won't get it done ^^'. I'll look forward to yours too~

[write_my_dreams]

I know :( It's getting a little better at least. I've got cold medicine and cough drops, but with a cold nothing really works too well

We had a Gackt party, going for L'Arc next time

Oh good! I hope it will be up. I'll update mine after I finish stuff I have to do for school... so much work. Ergh.

[a_deux_vitesses.livejournal.com]

That's good, but yeah, you're right, nothing really cures colds after all :( I have one right now too ugh...

Sounds fun~

I shall begin typing everything up after I finish with this comment, lol. Ok, hope you get some free time soon.
