oops. i've been quite busy recently, second term is almost ending and spring break, coming up soon! also, my newest addiction: AKB48♥ i absolutely adore them so much. i've always preferred girl groups over boy groups and this just proves how much i love cute girls haha. my favorite member is mayu of course. :') i also love ayaka, haruka, sae, and sayaka♥♥♥ i downloaded their whole discography as well and they just keep on getting better and better. their new single, 桜の木になろう is so amazing i can't stop listening to it; i'm glad they broke the record of having the most sales—655,000—in a day. wow. you go girls! :'D

my birthday was on the 17th and my family and i went out to eat dinner (lobster—my favorite!) and went to cheesecake etc for the most delicious cheesecake ever. bibian  gave me a copy of demon's souls to play on the ps3—thanks dear♥ and shirley ann, a chapter's gift card (!). i also got a misc package from cindy including a cute hannari tofu cellphone holder and mameshiba keychain.

after my birthday we went to seattle for a day and portland, two. it was pretty fun. we shopped a lot and i bought some clothes and a manga. i love kinokuniya, i wish there was one here. ;___; our gps was a piece of crap so we kept on screaming at it the whole trip. we also got lost like four times while walking; not a great experience. overall it was cool, a lot of fast food and cheesecake factory was good.
