Bwahaha. Considering my last post title, this is ironically funny

So I have actually been thinking of posting for a while now, but there were issues, and I was lazy, and I didn't feel like it. *grins* My bad?

I have joined Aikidou and Ikebana. If you don't know what it is, look it up. It'd be redundant for me to try to explain it when you can get a professional opinion somewhere else easier.

Aikidou has literally kicked my ass. For two or more days I couldn't fully open OR close my legs. Make all the jokes of that you will, I felt awkward as hell. I also attempted a stilted, pain-filled walk that made me feel like Igor. But it was fun! Doing aikidou, not hurting. My host mom likes to poke my rub my bruises and cuts.....She's evil in a way similar to me, so I feel like I'm getting what I deserve.

Ikebana is very laidback and I like it, but it's like an hour a week total, and I'm not sure I'm learning anything really. Eh, okay, maybe I'm learning, but it feels a little too relaxed when  I compare it to Aikidou.

I borrowed a uniform for Aikidou from the student that just graduated high school. ....Ironically the pants fit awesomely, and the top could not cover me. I will be borrowing the pants. Now I just have to decide if I want to buy a pair of pants for myself or if I just want to borrow the pants and buy the top and obi separate. I'm still thinking about it.

I have made and am using a Whiskey-based medicine for my cough. It helps, surprisingly. And the taste isn't too bad, but I felt like a drunkard buying cheap whiskey at the supermarket. Especially since I just kinda stuck it in my bag and toted it around with me since I had other places to go.

I sent boxes off to my family today. So expensive!!! I even sent two of them over ship. And there was some trouble when the lady forgot to add the insurance I requested. But overall it wasn't too bad.

I've rented Mulan and Tarzan and some other movies. I feel silly renting these movies, but then everyone sits and watches them (the kids actually end up getting sleepy and noisy and it irritates me because I feel like movie watching is nearly sacred. If you're not making a smart ass comment about the movie that's funny enough to make me laugh, I shouldn't be hearing you.) so I feel less stupid.

I watched Penelope the other night. It was pretty good. Though (SPOILER ALERT) I feel like it was somewhat ironic and stupid for the curse to be broken like it was. Just when everyone is getting used to it, it breaks.

Sweetie and my 'fights' are quite amusing to participate in. Usually one of us willingly defers to the other and lets the other scold or shake their head in a 'What am I going to do with you' kind of way. Then we generally give up on the scolding and continue with other things.

Ow. Why did I just poke my scabbing knee? I do not know but it hurt. I need to start thinking about it before I do things to my body, but it doesn't seem to come naturally. As much as I watch and observe others, I am remarkably unable to govern myself well. I've tried the method of "If I saw someone else about to do what I'm about to do, what would I say/do" and.....it fails. It fails so bad..... I just utterly blank and start wondering why someone else would do what I'm doing, and if I would be doing it if someone else had already done it, or I just can't imagine it properly.

I think I have to say goodbye to my pretty legs...If you have any interest in pretty feet: your own or another's, do NOT do Aikidou. I'm sorry dear, but my feet may very well end up scarred and calloused in odd places. I'm so glad you don't have a foot fetish.

Okay, I'm really getting tired now. I'll just post the video I'm listening to right now. G'night~

I realized how little I post on here lately

I also just realized that on Sunday, not only do I get a movie day with my lust crush, but he will be helping me practice my self defense which means lots of physical contact....wow. I'm suddenly seriously looking forward to the weekend. And I'm dreading it now for the exact same reason.....That sucks.

So today I took a day off. :) Or so I say. What I actually did was:

-Wake up around 10.
-Eat a piece of toast,
-Hang up Ikuchin's laundry and start my own (starting with my bed sheets)
-Take a shower
-Hang some laundry up
-Eat some orange slices and something else
-Get dressed, put make up on
-Go out to Tsutayas ( a rental store) where I rented 5 movies: Mamma Mia, Public Enemies, Juno, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and My neighbor Totoro
-Pick up a set of donuts from Mister Donuts
-Come home and cry over the state of my feet ( a few cuts that I really hate getting)
-Cut the donuts in half and essentially scarf them down since I was really hungry by then
-Turn on my computer and hang more laundry
-Check for anyone online, check bf's schedule to see what his plans/etc were
-Ikuchin came home, so we ate various breads and donuts for lunch
-Watched Juno and had a discussion on adoption in the US. We also discussed my family tree which looks so much more complicated on paper than in my head
-Watched Mr. and Mrs. Smith. We both enjoyed that.
-She made dinner while I finished up the laundry
-We ate. ....She made this really bitter dish that I didn't really like, but I could eat, so she was really impressed. ....It honestly turned my stomach just a little. But I didn't want to make her eat it all by herself.
-I got online again and started sending out emails etc.
-Ikuchin offered me ice cream. Of course I said yes, so I then was sick to my stomach from it....
-Took a scented bath
-Sang in the bath (embarrassing, but fun)
-Talked to bf


...hopefully soon I will sleep.

This song has not left my mind completely in days: (And it describes what I've done today fairly well)
