Failed Shortcuts - (PICTURES ARE FIXED)

Last night after I posted I finished watching Hugurashi No Naku Koro Ni Kai. I feel so satisfied with the ending of the anime. The anime was really scary in the first season and a lot was explained and the whole set of events in the series finally was resolved at the end of season 2. Here is a summary of what season 1 and 2 is about without spoiling anything.

Season 1:

After moving into the quiet town of Hinamizawa, Maebara Keiichi spends his days blissfully in school often playing games with his local friends. However, appearances can be deceiving. One fateful day, Keiichi stumbles upon news of a murder that had occurred in Hinamizawa. From this point on, horrific events unfold in front of Keiichi, as he soon learns his close friends may not be all that they seem. Based on the amateur mystery game by 07th Expansion, the story is told in a series of different scenarios.

Continuing from the first series, Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai begins to shed some light on the dark mysteries prevalent in the preceding season. The young group of friends in the town of Hinamizawa continue to enter terrible conflicts with one another in their never ending summer of 1983, often ending with the brutal murder of one of their numbers. Furude Rika, with the help of her spiritual friend Hanyuu, tackles challenges over and over, trying her best to keep their lives from coming to a tragic end. With no end to the torture in sight, Rika must call upon the bonds of friendship and trust among her friends to discover the true villain of this eternal June.

Last night I also gathered together all the photos I didn't have on Flickr and finally uploaded and organized them in albums. I kind of figured since I have a link to Flickr on here I should keep it up to date. I admit I didn't get much sleep last night because of this. I probably got around 5 hours or so.

I really wanted to sleep longer. I was pretty cranky and my patience was used up when I finished last night. I somehow managed to pull myself out of bed thankfully and got ready to go to institute. I wasn't in a bad moo, more like just not in the mood to want to make breakfast. I ended up eating a cookie and some milk for breakfast. I was going to eat a peanut butter and honey sandwich, but decided i needed to save it for later when the afternoon came around.

I wanted to take a different bus route to school where the institute building is today. I usually take one that goes straight from near the house to school, but I wanted to take the bus to the mall and then catch another to school at the transit center as an experiment of time. I wanted to try something new and see if this way was faster. Usually when I take the bus it can take anywhere from 25 to 30 minutes to get to school.

So I took the bus I usually take to go to school and institute, only I took the one that goes in the opposite direction to the south towards the mall and transit center. When I got there I switched to the bus that I THOUGHT was going to school, but I got thrown for a loop! I didn't know it, but the 830 does ALTERNATE routs! It goes by BYU, then back to the transit center, then to UVU, and this repeats. Basically I caught it at the wrong time and had to go through a REALLY LONG bus ride. It took about an hour, but I finally got to UVU.

I headed straight for institute, I was really relieved to finally be off of that bus. I got on the bus around 10:45, and by this time it was 11:41. Lunch Bunch was going on at institute today and I was hungry, when I finally got into the institute building I was meant with a pleasant surprise! I was cold, but today they were having different kinds of soup! I got cheese potato soup, but there was also chicken noodle, taco soup, and one other that I don't remember. Anyway, so they were also giving us salad, rolls, and cream puffs. They didn't have any drinks besides water today sadly.

So I headed off to class in a considerably better mood than I'd been in before, sat down and just ate while I was learning about the succession of kings and other crazy events that happened after King Solomon died, like a couple centuries after... I blank out stuff like this a lot, so sadly I can't give any details.

I headed off to choir, today we worked more on "How Firm A Foundation", and I officially became one of the first sopranos. I can tell I'm going to have my work cut out for me, lucky mom and dad can help me with the kinks in my singing! I didn't do it for a long time before this semester. My voice is still getting accustomed to it again.

After choir they were giving out soup for free after class! I guess they bought too much, so I went ahead and got seconds and thirds of everything because j knew I'd be walking around for a while and probably wouldn't be eating for a while after that. The seconds was chicken noodle soup, everything else was the same.

I noticed that the time for my favorite bus had passed by, so today I had to settle riding back on the same bus I rode on to get there today. When I got to the mall today I looked at studs because I need to get my ears pierced AGAIN for the third time because I went too long without wearing any earrings. I won't make the same mistake again this time. I don't think I kept my old studs in long enough last time anyway, so they didn't heal right. I'm glad I can fix this this time. I'm planning on doing it at Silver Loft again just like last time. I'm getting the same small star studs I got last time, I loved those but I lost them. I won't make that mistake again.

I decided to go to Starbucks after 2 and a half hours of walking around. I walked across the street from the mall and got a small hot chocolate. I wanted to go to the one in Barnes & Noble, but I wasn't wearing my good coat tonight, so I didn't want to walk all the way there because I'd freeze. I've actually never set foot in the Starbucks across the street, I usually only go to the one at Barnes & Noble. It was a nice change and the environment felt pretty nice, I still prefer the other one though.

After I got my hot chocolate I waked through the mall again and headed towards the buses. I was going to go to the gym tonight, but I want to burn another 1000 calories next time I go and I do better at that in the mornings. I didn't feel like being there until 10:30 again tonight anyway because of mom and dad being at choir. I am going to a party at the institute building tomorrow night, so it's s good idea of I just go in the morning so my metabolism is ready for that.

So I caught the bus home, strangely enough the bus seats on this particular bus seemed a lot more squishy, it was so niiiice... The bus driver didn't even make me show him the pass I have, he was cool, he even stopped for people that were late.

I got off of Harmon's because I REALLY didn't want to walk home tonight, I just wasn't prepared. I called dad for a ride home, but he and mom left early tonight. They told me that Laura was going to the store as well soon though, so I called her. She said she wasn't coming for a little while longer, so o decided to stay, walk around and take some pictures! Here are some of tonight's shenanigans.

My favirite brand of ice cream, St, Patricks Day stuff, Kefir (it's like a yogurt smoothie). 

My favirite carbonated beverages, and the other two are tea brands I love. I really need to get more tea. :)

I really want the green cups, I also love these water bottles, I really need to get a new one because I lost my good one weeks back in the gym locker room.

Some food items I love, I try not to eat them too often though because of the calories. :)

Some of my favorite chocolate! Also, some suckers I love.

Nail polish, I really need to get more navy blue and glitter.

I want all of these hats, also the place I get 50% of my headbands from. The rest I get from Amazon.

My favorite line of skin care products. Neutrogena is the best!

 Just a random rack of socks I liked.

 The good stuff, produce!

Eventually Laura called and asked where I was in the store, but a few seconds after she spotted me. Turns out she had been there for a little while shopping for dinner and she was done. She went through the register and bought everything and we headed out to the car. That is when I spotted the burned out "M" on the Harmon's sign! Haha

Anyway, so we went home and had garlic pasta with chicken and salad. I watched Ergo Proxy ( the anime I was half way done with before the last one I finished) and got through 4 episodes. I'm on episode 20, just a few more to go! Besides this the rest isn't important, just more of my random unimportant pass times.
