I EAT WHEN I AM LONELY.

Happy new year, all! Random stuff ahoy~.


That one meme, with the first sentence from each month:

January 2009: kenken? kenken... kenken! roar!!
February 2009: Some time ago I commissioned a knitted hat from kimby77. [f-locked]
March 2009: i.e., video spam. Forgive me.
April 2009: "Your item was delivered at 9:04 AM on April 3, 2009 in HAVERFORD, PA 19041."
May 2009: I have 4/10 things on tonight's checklist finished.
June 2009: (Warning: Even more esoteric than Arashi, though maybe not to certain people on my f-list.)
July 2009: Here we go. [Arashi filter]
August 2009: Starring KenKen, Kanesaki Kentarou, Miyano Mamoru, and Kawai Ryuunosuke. [f-locked]
September 2009: KenKen was featured as the Cast Prix personality for one of their special included-with-the-magazine DVDs, so I got my hands on it, and it's literally, literally the best thing ever. [f-locked]
October 2009: Haven't posted to this filter lately. [Arashi filter]
November 2009: Lately I've been trying to "dress up", as in not look like the frumpy college student that I am.
December 2009: (This involves a sizable amount of A*ashi talk, unfortunately, but it's not specifically about them, really. Almost. Kind of.)

I am... unsatisfied with these results. Therefore, I'm making a concerted effort this year to make my first-of-the-month first sentences really interesting. Ohgodohgod, next year's first-sentence meme is going to be the best ever.


"2010" is not as fun to write (hand- or type-written) as "2009", I'm sorry to say.


Resolutions?

Can't really say that I do the whole "resolutions" thing (one day it's 2009, the next it's 2010... just another day, you know; and besides, the calendar in my mind will forever start in August and end in July), but a couple of things I'm going to try to keep in mind:

1. Don't slouch. You're going to turn into Nino.
1a. ... it's okay if you want to slouch. ♥
2. Exercise daily.
3. Read for fun, at least an hour a day.
4. Don't just sleep away your free time. Practice violin, study languages.
5. Stop snacking when you're not hungry. (Stop being hungry?)
6. Cut back on miscellaneous unnecessary expenditures. (Like Starbucks, ohgod I'll miss you.)
7. Keep in better touch with friends. (The best kind of touch is the personal one, after all.)


Here's to a happy 2010, everyone. ♥

Keep in better touch with friends.

THIS IS WHY YOURE LONELY AND EAT WHEN YOURE LONELY AND MAKE HORRIBLE ARASHI POSTS vicious cycle.

I still love that icon. ♥

Happy 2010! Or, as many of my things say, 20010 because writing two zeroes is still habit.

You've got some good sentences going on up there. I like January and July best. *biased*

Happy 2010! I think it's definitely easier to write two zeroes in a row. Or, well, two of any number in a row. It's been two decades of 99 or 00, and now what? This "2010" thing defies all logic.

The January post was pretty great, s'true.

Ah I need #5 XD Every time I get sleepy at work, I start snacking. Sometimes I'm not even sleepy, just bored... and I snack -__-" Oh btw, I mostly just type at work and mann... 2010 really is not fun to type. I'm hoping it's just because we're so used to the two zeroes in the middle and eventually it'll be just as easy?

I did #6 all through last year with some fail here and there :p It's pretty amazing how staying home on the weekends made a HUGE difference.

I uhh... don't really get the meme? =3

Happy New Year and I wish you the motivation and will power to stick with your *sort of* resolutions! :))

I mean, eventually everything is easier, but yeah, the trip to "2010" is not going to be fun, heh.

Miscellaneous unnecessary expenditures are what get me in the red all the time. (And I love how things like Arashi DVDs and the magazine More, in which there are only 2 pages of Nino each issue and for which I spend about $40 a month, don't count as unnecessary expenditures.)

Ahaha, the meme doesn't really have a point. Just write the first sentence from each month of the past year to see what comes up. Mine is split between Arashi and Kamakari Kenta, and that's the way I like it.

Happy new year!

Yeaa since I was saving up, I didn't buy any of their CD/DVDs last year and man do I regret it now >.< I usually preorder at yesasia as soon as they're available. Now I'm shelling double-triple the price for all the limited editions I missed.

I have my exceptions too XD I would skip a $5 lunch because I'm "saving money" and then spend $30 on manga cuz apparently for me they're more important than food hahah.

Ahahahaha, we're so dedicated. And while most people would disagree, we know we're doing it for the right causes.
