Hello again, all!
Just here for my monthly check in. (Sarcasm) I keep saying I'm gonna have more time, I'm gonna have more time . . . And then we move. Now, it's my porch that's taking up my free time.
I have a little porch in my backyard, which Stella loves dearly. She like to take her big drawing pad and computer outside and drink tea in the morning, and we watch the squirrels and birds fight in the mammoth tree outside. Five minutes later, leaves come raining down out of whatever special part of hell hovers over my house.

I sweep them up dutifully, keeping my little porch as clean as possible. This continues . . . forever.
Stella keeps telling me that it's a good zazen training, and that anger does my blood pressure and our household wa damage. Still . . . I keep sweeping and they keep coming, like a storm of justice for some unknown wrong I did in a previous life. Tons and tons of them, out of trees that appear to have no loose leaves remaining. Ugh. Worst thing is, I can't use a leaf blower out there because it'll mess with Stella's allergies for sure. Lots of dust and pollen around here, we notice.
On the lighter side, I've noticed that the ground smells good when it rains outside the city. While in New York, I never noticed that the City smelled like a dung heap after a rain. Kind of foul and very hot, it was never good to go out after a hard rain. Now, it's like all the flowers in the world give up their scent to the raindrops. The whole area smells so wonderful, and it's so breezy and cool.
Very nice to hang out in.Also, I'm getting a bit of a tan.
That's all for now! Since I have more time now, I hope to . . . Never mind.
*picks up his dustpan and charges out after lone leaves*
Regards, Aaron

Oh my gosh, oh my gosh you're back! Welcome back!!
Hmmm... you are back?
Long time no hear from you, how have you been?
4 bloody months without internet technology changes people a lot, I heard you gone somewhere but I have no clue, care to chat? At your convenience of course.

So. Any funny stories you wish to share with me to lighten up my mood?

Haha, spraying the cat could have been fun.
The clean air part... yes, I know what you mean. In this city you can't really breathe, or at least I can't, no one else aside from myself is complaining, however, unlike here the air in the North is relatively fresh, my grandma and uncle live there. I visit them once or twice a year, usually my best time of the year is to enjoy my time there where the sun, I can see, the air,I can breathe, the peace, I can taste, and the books, I can read. Almost the perfect atmosphere.
You can find out in most of the other user comments I've made on Kartaeae's and Firestorm's page that I received my Compulsive invitation from the army. And I have an interview there in 4 days. Sucks. Fuck. Oh, how I don't want to waste 3 years of my life there... Life is so cruel and unfair...
So yeah, I'm doing f, f, f, f,..ine...

That emoticon really depict you, lol ^^
Oh... Do the kitty take a bath everyday?? How cute ^^
What make a movie sell more than the other one? Is black lagoon THAT interesting? I haven't get the chance to watch it..
Oh, great!! Kimono! I once wear the fake one, only for few minutes, the obi is really tight, I hardly breath or walk = =' People say, small is sweet, hehe ^^ Oh my God, throwing eggs at your windows, that sounds a bit scary.. ^^; We unfortunately don't celebrate Halloween here
, it really sounds so fun! I believe that the grave must be look good, hehe ^^ Why don't they celebrate it here, hikx...
Btw, aaron, may I ask you something? When Stella draw, it's only a black and white sketch, right? How to change it into a good picture with neat lines like the one you see in anime/illustration? Do they vector it? Trace it and then color it? What program do they use?
And please check out my deviant art acc : http://yuki-ne3chan.deviantart.com/
I made two pin designs there, I want to know what you think, I hope I don't disturb your busy day :]
Warm Regards,
Yuki

WHOA!! Just a few hrs before you commented on my UP, i checked up on yours only to see that "3 months ago" thing =/
But ZOMGZ!! Then the next time i log in and you're right here!! AWESOME!!
And.. a while..?? It's been 3 months man!! A while he says... pffft... >________>
It's been a LOOONNNNGGGG while!!
But anyhow, i guess i can't blame you. I'm just really happy to see you back man!!
However, why didn't you take a laptop along with you to Sapporo? o_O
And since you were able to check your e-mails, you could've just dropped in an occasional "Hi" here or something, you know! =/
What happened with Stella's aunt? o_O
Things are going great for me!! I've bought and assembled an extremely powerful new gaming system!!
Wanna see?! :D
AND HELL YEAH!! Unreal Tournament is the absolute and sole emperor of the Arcade FPS genre!!
And boy does UT3 look sweet or what!! AWESOMENESS!! I love the demo. But of course, due to the lack of maps and more arenas and vehicles and certain other stuff, i'm kinda getting bored of the demo and i've gone back to good ol' GRAW. I just can't get enough of that game! o_O
Have you played GRAW? o_O
Talk to you soon, Sir!!
Elated to have you back!! :D

*take a deep breath*
Watch out, this one is going to be a long message, lol
Me too. I'm glad I didn't give up on you
People say: That's what friends are for
The fact is, from what I see, there're lots of your friends here who're not giving up their hope on you too ^^ Thank you very much, aaron ^^ Oh, you take a Business Economics class? Master degree?? That's great! Master degree need less time, right? I mean, you're going to finish it in one or two years? I'm in visual communication design (graphic design) department.
For the first few semester, we won't use the computer. We use paint, drawing book (drawing circle, straight lines without a ruler, construction lines).. It makes me pretty stress since I usually never think about making construction lines before my drawing. I just draw it. That's it. When my lecturer asked us to draw the construction lines for every object that we drew, I'm really stressed, haha
I learn to make some abstract things using thread.. oh, it's really hard to be described.. Check it out here There're only my old tasks. I haven't post the new ones. I plan to post it soon though. Oh, and sorry, you probably won't be able to read what I post since I wrote it in Indonesian, hehe..
I learn to cook!! Hehe ^^ A friend of mine shares his recipes. Cooking are usually make me lost my appetite, but I often eat really late. I suppose to cook in the morning and eat it in the campus, but I really lack of sleep since I enter the univ so I often overslept lately. I only sleep for 3 or 4 hours a day, or even not sleep at all and straightly go to the campus again. I have to wake up around 5am. Most of the time, I won't be able to cook..
I make a kind of sushi, hehe. In the mall, there're not much food that I can eat. I usually buy potato and rice, or bread, or baked potato.. that's why my friend told me to learn to cook, so I can get a better nutrition. I usually skip the breakfast and lunch, and straightly go to the supper. I'm doing my best to working on my time management now. Wish me luck, hehe ^^ The tasks are tough, especially because I'm really slow in working on my task. I'm still thinking how to face this situation. I can only make a neat and clean task - even though it's not always good, in a slow speed. It frustrates me because it makes me get a low grade in one of the lesson in mid test. In that lesson, we have to work on a task in the class.. I'm working too slow. I finish it because one of my best friend helped me! And the result is really bad.. *sighs* On the other lesson - drawing - for the mid test, I wasn't able to finish it too because I'm too slow...
This would drag me into bigger problems soon if I don't fix it, but I can't! I haven't found a good way to fix it... 
Unspoken language >> Telepathy >> the power of love, hehe, how sweet
What does it feel to work with your wife? I think it must be great ^^ Anyway, your boss is really nice. So he/she grant you permission to work from there? Ganbaru yo! Jia yo!! Semangat!! I'll dance "ganbatte-dance" for both of you
and sing the "ganbatte-song"
lol Anyway, what's the word for "ganbatte" in English?
Oh... how sweet.. honeymoon
It's great to feel that you're getting closer with your couple
Oh! Sapporo sounds really nice!! ^^ A friend of mine just got back from vacation in Japan.. I truly wish that I would be able to go there one day. I'll keep trying and praying to do the best to make my wish come true. Yay! Study, study, earn money, and spend it for holiday lol
Oh.. my.. God! It's really expensive..
Lol, Luna is really cute, hehe. Your life seems to be really peaceful. Really nice to hear that ^^ even though I know that you must be really busy with your job at the moment. Burying yourself in the job maybe? Oo I hope not.. I recently spent my two weeks holiday working on my tasks. It feels horrible. I'm working for hours! And even when I'm not working on it, it feels like the tasks are screaming in my head, asking to be finished, it really feels like a burden. I start to like my department and what I'm doing, but the feeling of always lack of time and a necessity to always get good mark is haunting me.. 
Btw, we just enter the rain season, here in my country. Yesterday, I went home with my friend. We used the general transportation. From the campus, we're walking really fast to the mall-right in front of the campus (the speed is same with half running though, lol). We walk, and walk, and walk.. my friend dropped by to buy a bread (less that 5 minutes). The bread shop is right in front of the exit door. When we're looking outside the door, we're really shocked. It's raining already. I brought an umbrella, but it's really small, so we have to face the truth that the shoes won't make it, our bags, trousers, and shirts would be really wet. We ran to the general transportation and waited there. The car didn't move for about half an hour, because the rain is really hard! It's almost like a storm, half-storm. The wind blows really hard too! The tree branch were falling apart. If we want to reach the car, we have to walk through small ladders, it already look like a fountain, lol
When the rain finally stop, flood covered the parking lot! The height is around the ankle! On our way home, me and my friend saw big trees in the middle of the road! But sadly, my phone-memory is full, so I can't capture most of the pictures. Baka!
I don't know if it'll happen again or not, but one thing for sure, I'll be really wet until the rain season is over. Well, it actually feel really fun to get wet, hehe, but usually I bring my work to the campus, and most of the time, it consists of papers which will be broken if the water hit them. Anyway, do you want to see the area around my campus? :D I would like to take some pictures if you want to ^^
Oh, and btw, I play ice skating around 2 days ago with my friends!! I only get the chance to play it twice in my life! I extremely love it.
There's only a place to go when you want to play ice skating here, and the place is pretty far from my house.. It takes at least one hour *sighs* Besides, it's pretty expensive for me.. Oh, I really want to play again, hehe. I only play for 3 hours and I haven't satisfied yet 
*take a deep breath again*
Long enough, hehe. Reply it only if you have some spare time. I would feel really guilty if bother your job.
It's always really nice to hear some news from you ^^
Talk to you soon.
Warm Regards,
Yuki

Hi Aaron,
I’m quite a new member in Animepaper. Just wanted to ask if I could be your friend. You seem like a nice person and hehe I wouldn’t mind having a friend that’s almost turning 30! Heh you’re almost what people call “middle aged”. Anyway it seems like you’re a very busy person especially with anime conventions you go to. I’ve had a look at your userpage before this when you were “two months gone”. Welp hope to talk to you soon! Oh right would you at all be interested in joining a group I’m planning for the end of the year called MODE? If you want more information about it you can find it on my page in the journal section. If you want to (which I really do hope so hehe) just reply or comment in my journal. I’ll put your name in the list. (shh.. just a secret, when the group opens, you’ll need to play a game to get invited. It’ll be quite hard but yes this initial “putting your name down” is the only easy way to get in. I thought it’d be fun for people to do that to be able to join the group.
