As what the title said...

HELLO ALL, I'M ALIVE!!! ...Just in case you're wondering XD

Shocking to know that I've only posted like, five times this year, all in January. Many things have happened to me and yes, I was pretty busy. And what bothers me is the fact that during my spare time, which were really slim, I had no urge to update my LJ. I simply used them to, well...rest and sleep. Not very productive nor useful :/ Thus now I feel really bad because it made me missed lots and lots about you all, my LJ friends. And that's not good.

So...now I'm adjusting myself with LJ again. It's been quite a long time for me, and posting doesn't seem as easy as it used to be. But I'm slowly coming back, yeah :D I missed you guys a lot!!!

What happened to me during the last 8 months? Quite a lot, but the most significant one for me is that I've entered another university, which means now I attend two unis at a time. My schedule will be even more indescribable, but I'll still make time for LJ and catch up with you guys, you have my word now :)

About my new uni, I'm taking the accounting major. Honestly, I can't say that I'm truly happy about this. I feel guilty for the expenses my parents have to make just for this. Apart from the tuition fee (not to mention that my 3 little siblings are entering high school and junior high this year, at the same time) , my parents have decided to buy a new car to solve the transportation problem. We've got two cars, one for my dad to work and one to for the children and my mom (for school and stuff). The situation now is extremely hard to deal with just two cars. I've planned to take public transport but my parents won't allow me to. You'll understand why if you know the condition of the public transportation here. It's just not safe. And it's making me feel so, so bad for burdening my parents endlessly. But I can say nothing to my parents since my entrance to this uni is also what they have been wishing for. They think the prospect of this major is brighter for me, than the Letter of Japanese. So you can say that I'm doing this not only for myself, but also for them. But then again, I can't help feeling guilty whenever I think about the huge expenses. Why don't I take part-time jobs? First, my parents won't allow me to since they thought it'll disturb my studying, and second, with my current schedule, it's just not possible. And third, looking for part-tiem jobs in this country is like looking for a needle in heaps of straws. Part-time jobs are just not common here. It's helpless, so the only thing I can do now is study as hard and get more scholarships to help ease their burden in the slightest way I could do. This uni is honored as the best private university in the country, with that major as its 'golden major'. And that means taking it won't be an easy task, and I hope I'll be able to overcome it all. Go, me! Wish me luck, guys! XD

And for those whose birthdays I've missed; Imouto-chan #1 (ayumiii_chan), Taka-chan(takagi), crstalclear, sumomo_yuki, amairo_parasol, and many MANY others, I'm really sorry for not sending you greetings sooner. HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, GUYS :)

Anyway, to all of you who gave me birthday greetings, thank you so much! ^^ You know who you are! I LOVE YOU ALL!!! <3 And for those who didn't, well, I still love you all. Don't worry XDDDD

I can't resist the urge to rant about the gifts. Not many, but I LOVE THEM. SO MUCH!! <3 So let's start with the list...

My little baby sister gave me this a drawings of chibi!KAT-TUN congratulating me happy birthday. Which is OMG, SO SO CUTE <3 THe weird thing is she's been keeping it (after showing it to me on my birthday for several hours) in a safe place, and I have no idea where she keeps it. I'll post a picture of it next time, she's already asleep now.

And this is what my baby brother made for me :

A pretty birthday card! Though he wrote my age wrong, but LOL I appreciate his work. He didn't sleep all night just to make it ^^ The person in the middle of the card is me, he said. And the floating head on the top-right corner is KAME XD

The inside of the card :

Yeah it's a pop-up card :D The one on the left side, again, is me. While the one on the right is Kame XD. LOL it's a dream come true, singing together on the same stage with my beloved Kame <3

And something I got from a friend...

...a pair of beautiful silver butterfly earrings from theklewerz. Thank you so much, I love it! I've been wearing it lots of time now. And the weird thing is, my old earrings which I used to wear ALL THE TIME, ARE BROKEN, two minutes after I received the butterfly ones DDD: Strange things do happen, I guess.

And last but not least...something special from butterflyblueye.

No, not the chair, people. She didn't send me a chair. It's the cylinder package sitting on it XD

What's inside the package is...

*NOSEBLEED* A VERY SHINY SEXY HUUUUUUUUGE KAMENASHI KAZUYA POSTER!! MWAHAHAH. IT'S BIGGER THAN ME!! OHBOYOHBOYOHBOY!!! *faints* It's HUGE, I had to spread it open on my bed and hold the sides down with my pillows XDDD I HAVE KAME ON MY BED NOW OMG

And here's a better view of the poster:

THANK YOU SO MUCH, DEAR!!!I received it in the morning and omg, when I opened it, I really really wanted to scream. But I just couldn't because it was still dusk. If I screamed, either the neighbors or my parents would yell at me, so I screamed inside. ALOUD. *O*

AAAAAAND. The virtual gifts! Thank you so much, vani13/butterflyblueye (again XD) and violet_papillon!!! It's the first time I get virtual gifts, I was so excited! :DDD

Phew. I think I've done ranting. It's 4:45 AM and I NEED SLEEP. Have a good day, everyone!! Love you all~ *hugs n kisses*
