Today was a blur. All I can really remember is stomping down the halls with Bailey in a manly fashion. And you all look very yummy today. *sharpens knives*

At dinner we were listening to one of Akon's not-so-gangster songs. My mom has recently gotten into modern music, while I have explored oldies. And all of a sudden my dad spoke up:

Dad: So, who is this singer?
Mom: The guy you don't like, you know, the guy who went to jail.
Dad: Interesting. This song sounds kind of reggae, like Bob Marley. o__o
Mom: He used to sing really gangster-type songs but recently since he's been getting a lot of younger fans he's decided to make his songs more parent-friendly.
Dad: Oh. What's his name?
Mom: Akon.
Dad (seriously): Acorn huh...

And my brother and I are just looking the other way, trying not to fall out of our chairs laughing.

Countdown.

Omgg gaiz. :D

Hope it snows some more tonight! I wanna sleep in.

Still haven't done any hw which is pretty sad, but I'll start soon. >___<

Our bio video is crazy.

ScribeFire and Antivirus 360.

2008-12-14T03:29:01Z

Hai gaiz! :D I'm testing out the program ScribeFire from my laptop. It's basically a fast-LJ-post type of program you can install into firefox. You just press F8 and the post screen comes up. :DDDDDDD Yay!

However, there are some drawbacks to the program.

1. You can't define entries as friends-only, putting you at a disadvantage with some curious people. *coughlesliecough*

2. You can't chose your icon! TT___TT

But... other than that it's all good!

Yup.

~~~~~~

The second thing I'm posting about is Antivirus 360. This program infects your computer with the disguise of an anti-trojan virus program. It's actually malware. When you log on, it pretends to scan your system and then comes up with a random amount of trojans it says are infecting your computer. DO NOT BELIEVE IT. It asks for a registration when you click "clean out viruses" and tries to charge money for registration. It continually pops up over and over again which eventually drives you crazy. Antivirus 360 is a pain in the butt to get rid of and makes your dad cuss his head off when he tries to uninstall it when it really can't be uninstalled, epsecially when your brothers download like crazy and don't know crap about computers.

But, to avoid these types of programs in the first place, double check what you're downloading and don't go to pron sites. >___>

O lawd. Now I don't even want to know what my brother was downloading.

Hopefully game hacks.

WHEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Kimmy went home, but she forgot to log off from her LJ account on my computer! LOLOLZ! Who would pass up a chance like this, eh? Besides, she did it to my LJ account once. XD

So yeah... Clary rules. Ok, bye! XD

~~This post is basically full of nothingness, since I do not have too much news to report.~~

This post is about healthy weight loss.

My brother pulled an all nighter today and got around two hours of sleep before he woke up again at 12 o'clock. >_< Srsly, people, don't do this. It throws off your sleep patterns and reduces weight loss during sleep. (yes, you do lose some weight while sleeping)

Today I was doing random stuff most of the time. I also discovered how to estimate your BMR, body metabolism rate. This determines how many calories you burn a day in an inactive state. Basically, you take your weight and multiply is by 10. For example, if your weight is 100 pounds you would burn around 1000 calories a day. This does not include how active you are during the day, however, which is a big factor on weight loss. To lose weight, you would have to consume less calories than your body uses by default. 3500 calories is equal to one pound, so you would need to burn 3500 calories to burn one pound off your weight or vice versa. You would need to eat 3500 calories worth of food to gain one pound.If you ate nothing at all and you were 100 pounds, it would take 3.5 days to lose one pound. It is safer to eat smaller amounts and exercise as well instead of just starving yourself. If you stop eating, your body will go into survival mode and begin to store fat instead. When you finally start eating, your body will gain a lot of weight back so starvation does not work that well. It also has bad long term effects, so I'm against starving. You could lose one pound a week if you cut back your calorie intake by 500 calories a day because 500 calories x 7 days = 3500 calories lost = 1 pound less. One could also exercise, burning 250 calories a day, and also take off 250 calories from the normal diet.

It took a while to research all this, but I think I have a better gist of how to lose weight properly now. Hahah. Also, swimming for one hour will burn around 400 calories. Running for one hour burns around 300. Therefore, swimming is better in terms of calories burned but running is better in terms of efficiency because not everyone has a nearby pool. Running is also free minus the cost of clothes and shoes, which one should already have.

The only thing I need to know is the amount of calories that I consume every day. :O If someone could help me with that, I'd be grateful. >___< Cuz what if I'm eating 5000 calories worth of food?

Have fun losing weight guys. XPPP

Summer cleaning.

2008-07-16T16:12:45Z

OKAY. I'm going to start cleaning now, WISH ME LUCK.

I will also post my progress here. o__o If I don't, then I have been eaten alive by the mess in this house.

P.S.

Just now I blew dry my hair upwards at the back for a few moments of Sasuke cosplay. It failed. Horribly. And while I was showing my brothers and screaming "DUCK BUTT HAIR!", my dad walked in. :) It was awkward. Oh yes.

So, these past few days I've just been sitting around pretty much. Playing computer, ect. Yup...

Went shopping for a swimsuit and a bikini at Fred Meyer. Both are black. :) The styles this year aren't very good, and they're also very expensive.

Clary's drawing ^^
Total time taken: 10 hours minimum, 15 hours max
Tools: Pencil, photoshop, scanner, brain, hand

Y HALLO THAR WORLD.

I have financial classes today. DDD8 Bleh. They're seriously so boring. Last time I nearly fell asleep. T_T Gosh.

Well, anyways.... I feel braindead. This morning I finished Clary's drawing (left) and sent it to her. I spent a ton of time on it, so I don't know what to do now. Moar drawing? O_O

My brother grew again. He's now 5'2 and his ego just increases with his height. It ticks me off. >:O He always wants to compare his height to mine, which is pretty brainless because I'm the shortest girl in the class.Yeah. He's taller than a very short girl. Impressive. -____-

And then my other brother is a total pig and wants to be all 'cool' so he tries to rap. 30% fat, 70% retarded.

*rant rant rant*

And then our swim team coach is killing us off with extreme drills. And my lower body continues to sink into the water. Maybe my legs have too much mass. MUST LOSE LEG MASS. *chainsaw*

Well, that's all for now.

i wanna rock with you, dance with you, do everything with you.

2008-07-01T07:14:43Z

I officially own the world. :) *ego boost*

1. I have awesome manga reading skills
2. I covered at least 100 chapters of manga today
3. I have revived my passion for drawing
4. I have created the uber fanart
5. I can read your minds, and you want to see my creation. Of course. *extra ego boost*

Let's start over.

1. Vampire Knight is a very epic manga
2. Kaname owns my soul
3. Kaname looks like Kame with black hair
4. Kaname is hawt
5. But I drew Zero instead

First of all, an introduction to Vampire Knight.

1. It is about vampires
2. Vampires are hawt
3. Kaname and Zero are both charaters in Vampire Knight
4. They are both very swoon-worthy
5. ...what if a vampire wasn't hot? Woah. It's like, if Edward Cullen wasn't hot. That's impossible, because vampires are sexay. Woah. But what if Edward was actually ugly, or all vampires for that matter? Woah. An ugly vampire. You wouldn't want an ugly vampire to suck your blood. You would want a hot vampire. Yes. Hot.
6. I'm glad that all vampires are made pretty and handsome.

I broke the pattern. .__.

Anyways, here is Zero. (yes, his name is zero, and he is awesome)

Isn't he cool? Srsly. Guess what? He's actually a vampire even though he wants to deny it! HAAA. SPOILERS. Since Zero is so awesome, I spent five hours drawing him. Yes. FIVE HOURS. His hair is actually white-ish, but it's blond in this picture because my graphics program wishes it so. :) *another ego boost* Oh yes baby.

1. It is 12:00 AM.
2. I should sleep.
3. But I feel nocturnal.
4. I also feel very ego boosted for making such an awesome entry.
5. Please comment on this awesome entry with awesome comments. >:3

Ciao~

love, love is the key.

Oh em gee... I spent the whole day reading manga. This morning, at the mall, and the entire afternoon. MANGAA!

Why must all the characters be so charming and flawless? Maybe the artists are too lazy to draw pimples and moles on them...

Someone's cooking ramen... and it smells good. I can't eat though. My mom and I made a decision to diet from now on. ;__; Smells good. Gosh, I want to eat but I also want to lose weight. T_T Well, not weight, fat. Mostly the fat all over my legs. RAH. I'm fine with my torso but my legs are just FLAAAB. I don't know how to get rid of all the FLAAB on my legs. Diet time. >:O

Note: I just jacked my brother's noodles. I feel fat now... T_T

happy day~

2008-06-28T04:41:47Z

Today I didn't do much... since there wasn't much to do. Ahah.

But I got unbanned from Gaia! Lots of people are getting unbanned, thank goodness.

~~~~

These past few days, I've been having a TON of skin problems. I have heat rashes all over my legs and arms. And now I have these icky little bumps ALL over my hands. I've diagnosed this as pompholyx, which is another form of rashes that I already seem to have. -__- This really sucks. They're even on my palms and all over my thumbs. Cream doesn't seem to help either. However, an article says they usually disappear. I don't know how long I'll have to wait though.

The causes of pompholyx are usually unknown, but sources hint towards stress, contact with irritant chemicals, heat, and some other things. Well, I got all of these. I was really stressed during finals week, but they didn't appear until a few days ago.

Something pretty stressful happened a while ago, but I don't feel like talking about it right now. Perhaps later.

achievement!

OMG. I had the weirdest and most interesting dream!

Somehow, I turned into a vampire in front of my house and everyone was getting possessed by random stuff. And then I walked into a glowing, yellow portal and ended up in a classroom where people were going on a field trip.I followed the people and we ended up at some type of mall and I saw Kathy. O_O I also saw a sixth grader there and he was a vampire too, but I don't know his name. The dream is kind of blurry from this point on so it's not completely accurate. But Kathy and I went into random shops and hypnotized the shopkeepers to give us free stuff... o__o And then the guys in our class had magically turned into vampires too. Ricco was planning some kind of attack on some random people... which I don't really remember. All of a sudden I was back in the classroom, sitting in one of the chairs, and a girl walked in and sat behind me and her scent drifted in my direction. I found myself urged to sink my teeth into her neck and I was trying to find the desire for blood and everything around me was becoming overwhelming, and that's where the dream ended. IT WAS JUST LIKE THE FIRST TIME EDWARD SAW BELLA. O____O WOAH. I must have been thinking about Twilight before I fell asleep...
