You know, sometimes life feels like throwing a complete wtf moment at you. Some days ago, I experienced such a moment, and it was even a good one! Here's the deal:
Thursday, I got on the bus to school as usual. Since it's a long way to school (30-40 mins), I usually do something on my laptop when I'm sitting there, be it watching anime, playing games, doing homework or something else. Adn on the laptop, I have this really cool pic from Naruto. Anyway, I take on my earbuds, and start listening to some lovely J-music. It doesn't take long, however, before I feel someone tapping my shoulder. The first thought that runs through my head is that my music is too loud and that sound is 'leaking' out. So I mute the sound, take off the earbuds, and look over to see this girl standing there. Of course, now I expect to hear something like "could you turn donw your music?", but no, instead she asks: "That picture on your desktop, that's from Naruto, right?". I, being compeltely baffled, mutter "um... yeah?". She replies "that's awesome! Do you watch it?". She was obviously an anime - or at least a Naruto - fan. And such the conversation started. She ended up seating herself next to me, and we talked about anime and Japan and whatnot during the whole bus trip. I found out she's actually attending the same school as me, but she's taking Arts. We met again at the bus Friday morning, and, well, I feel like I've made a friend (and a girl at that =P) in a pretty peculiar way.
As for other stuff, there's not a lot to say. I'm still friggin' sick, but I'm getting glasses, which may actually help (yeah, starting tomorrow I'll be using glasses =D). I hope so, because my grades have fallen to Bs/Cs instead of pretty much straight As >_>
And that's about it for now. Later, folks!

EDIT: I completely forgot to tell you that today is my 16th birthday =D

Yay random people talking to you! 
Sometimes that freaks me out, but usually it's fun, isn't it? Oh, and I hope the glasses help you get feeling better.

Thanks everyone =D I think I'll look better with glasses too =P
@Teresa: Maybe.... You wanna know what my mom replied when I told her about it? "That's how your uncle and aunt got together". And I was all "yeah...". Well, I know a few other wonderful girls, so I guess time and my heart will tell where things go, or if they'll go anywhere at all =P

hahaha... I love those moments when you find out that someone else is into Naruto, because you can actually gossip about it, unlike others... they'll be like "Sorry, I'm not korean" even though it's japanese or whatever Glasses eh??? But other than that ^_^ Happy Birthday xD

I said that because that's how I got a boyfriend XD Only I was reading, and he sat next to me and asked me what I was reading and then we got talking about books and such. We were on the bus on the way to a spell bowl meet.

Well at least you can see. Plus, it's cool to find girls who like anime, even if it's Naruto.
Posted Dec 1, 2008 10:18 am PT
Happy Birthday!!! That is one strange way to meet someone. I would feel so awkward if that happened to me.

That's pretty cool. Carrying a laptop like that is a neat idea. Also, awesome how you made anew friend just like that lol. I'm a huge fan of jazz myself. I listen to all sorts of it. You should experiment with some Brazilian jazz, aka Bossa Nova. And may I add, you have great writing skills. Happy Bday mann.

Aww, you made a new friend. =) That's cool. Im very glad to here that. ^_^
Glasses suck. -_- I have to wear mine all the time or else I can't see. I hate them so much, I don't wear them anyway so I'm pretty much blind most of the time. xP I'm planning to get contacts in January though. =)
Gosh, why won't your sickness go away?! =( I hope you had a nice birthday, Espen. Take care!

Oh yeah, glasses can be cool. Small lenses are in for now, and you can always get a pair of magnetic clip-on shades to go with them.

Happy late birthday, hope you feel better, and get a nice pair of glasses. Pretty cool meeting a new person.
Posted Dec 4, 2008 9:53 pm PT
I like glasses..
But my eyes are too good for them.
(I must be sounding like a hypacritical idiot lol)

Awww, that's sweet. It's nice how life can give you some happiness. I hope you both end up as friends, and that your glasses work out for you.

Happy Birthday!!! ^_^ Late birthday that is...
Anyway, Congrats on making a new friend!!! I prefer to hang-out with the guys at my school...so I have lots of guys that are friends. They're crazy, but it's fun. I have more girls that are friends this year than I have in the past, though. Anyway, I found out recently that one of my guy friends has been a huge anime fan...bigger than me...he has also watched certain anime series just b/c I've talked about them to other people. I can't believe I didn't know that!!! lol.
Still sick? I hope your glasses help!!! ^_^

Bahh! I totally missed it! Happy Birthday!!!!!!!! You get extra exclamation points. ;P And I want to hear all about this girl! ;D Is she pretty? I have a slight clue on what you're going to say to that. Anyway. It's cool that you met a Naruto fan! The only ones I know are in my Japanese class.

Christa-chan: Well, she's very cute. She has braces, glasses and red hair. As nerdy as it sounds, it's actually quite the opposite xD But yeah, she's pretty cute.

Awh~! She sounds adorable! I wish I personally had red hair. 
My mom does, but she decided to keep it for herself. What is her name~?!

uh... Rebecca, that's what it was =P
And I think she has colored hair red. She is naturally, um... brunette, I think she said.

That's a pretty name! I only know two Rebecca's. 
Amazing. And colored hair? Darn. I may be a little biased to brunettes though. ;P

And why is that?
Posted Jan 6, 2009 1:54 pm PT
I'm guessing that you meant why I'm biased, and not why I know two Rebecca's. Well, I'm brunette. Haha. It is an amazing hair color. ;P
