Sore Arches…

So on Friday night, I did something stupid. I played tennis without my tennis shoes. It’s Sunday morning now and my arches on my right foot is a bit sore… I’ve been wearing the plantar fasciitis foot things at night, but I guess if it’s been injured, I just have to make sure it doesn’t get worse. :(

JP iTunes 2008 Valentine Gift Selection

There’s a section called “giri choco” in the Japanese iTunes music store. It’s kinda funny… Well, I was amused by it. Most of the songs I didn’t recognize, but the ones I did, I was internally laughing trying to figure out how it was “giri”.

We Are the World by U.S.A. for Africa
Turandot: “Nessun dorma!” by London Philharmonic Orchestra
What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong
Mononokehime by hisaishi jou
World Football Anthem by Japan Ground Self Defense Force Central Band

The last one was the funniest for me. World Football Anthem, heheh. >.>;

Super Tuesday!

I voted today! Between the 2 major Democratic candidate, I went with Obama. It was a very tough decision because they were very similar (they are both of the Democratic party after all), but in the end I thought that Obama had what it takes to become a leader. It would have been awesome to see a woman as president, but it’s equally awesome to see a person of color in that seat also.

Bitter Bard

Bard is a fun job. I didn’t think I would have this much fun having to pay attention to the screen all the time, but I am. I’ve gotten it to level 18 from 11 in a few days.

Since I was sick at home, I thought I would level it up some more before dynamis tonight. I put up my flag in Valkurm Dunes and wait it out. I didn’t have to wait long before I had a party invite. So the guy was level 20, I’m beggars can’t be choosers I say. Oh man, the party disbanded after 1 fight and I didn’t even make it to camp then. >:( The lead goes to the level 19 subjobless white mage. ;_; So I end up getting lead when I ask if he’s looking for replacements. Somehow they decide that they would rather look for subjob quest items instead. >.< Two of them that needed items. And then the white mage guilt trips me into helping by saying everyone in FFXI is selfish. I’m like wth. -_-; The dancer drops from the party and I’m left with 2 noobs and 1 other player who’s willing to help them. Great. >.<

A quick stop back in Windurst to switch jobs and I’m out killing flies in Valkurm Dunes. It took a while before I was able to get the worm drops. During that time, my party mates kept on dying. Just thinking about it now my bitterness grows.

Next is the skull. I think at least 1 of them didn’t have the Dem crystal, so they had to be walked there. >.<; After killing Ghouls for over an hour…. what drops? 2 Gravity scrolls and a bunch of bone chips, but NO SKULL. Eventually, the newbies had to log along with the helpful WAR leaving me rather bitter with the situation. So unproductive.

At least Dynamis-Jeuno was fun. I died a lot, but we won. :)

And then I was back to bard. No invites. The only one seeking within my level was a JP white mage. Bitterrrrrr.

Sick +1

Every girl’s fantasy to have the flu AND her period at the same time. Good thing about having a period now is that since I’m heavily drugged with Theraflu, I don’t feel any cramps. Bad thing about having period now… It makes a sucky situation worse. :\

Even Sicker

So now I’m feeling rather crappy. I get too hot easily, and then too cold easily. My throat hurts from all the coughing, my eyes feel gross, and I’m eagerly waiting for midnight to roll around to take more Theraflu. I was supposed to go over to Laura’s house to feel her bunnies, but I couldn’t leave my room very much. My bed was much too welcoming. I ended up asking Franklin to do it for me. I hope he doesn’t get sick.

Sick

I think my sister gave me her flu. Except I’m not having chills or bodyaches. Just a really bad cough that makes my throat sore and a slight headache. My bottle of Advil is still MIA so I took some ibuprofen that I bought in Japan for my headache. It didn’t work. :( Ugh. I couldn’t sleep very well last night either. I would wake up every once in a while coughing. Ugh ugh.
