Well who woulda thought. What, did you think it was gone??? It never dies!!! Theres always something random to talk about PLUS there were (THIS IS TRUE) a good amount of people who wanted to read more. Its been a good month and change since i wrote a blog so who knows. Might be a bit rusty but lets see where this takes us. Its Super Random Rants and this is Dai-Go. Better yet....lets just say episode five.....

1. *YA~WN* i cant believe it....just a semester removed from graduating from college and i'm already having trouble getting up at 10 in the morning. i remember those days in the past where i had to get up at 5 to get ready for school and actually had a smile on my face while doing it. i musta been on some sort of drug or something....but getting up at 5 in the morning does not sound like my cup o tea. its truly amazing what a person can really do if they really will themself to do it or better yet when someone forces them to do it.i know i would never willingly choose to get up at 5. probably had my mom throwing water on me to wake me up or something in the morning. probably hit my head a lot since i slept on the bottom half of a bunk bed. come to think of it....i do have this huge scar on my head but i cant....quite....remember....from............................OOPS. spaced out there for a minute. what was the topic??? OH YEAH! no wake up at 5 o clock...or something.....

2. Speaking of school....so i'm done BUT i can continue. actually i think i HAVE to continue my studies in order to complete my studies of become a speech pathologist. Masters, Ph.D blah blah blah blah blah BLAH!!!! you'd think a person would be happy after reaching the end but it merely shows you that it all begins after that and not ends. C.C. has been good to me....but that is seriously starting to get on my nerves. i'm one of the most patient people when it comes to dealing with customer issues but damn it....its seriously starting to get to me. BUT HEY i'll just ride the wave as long as i possibly can especially with Aya Nanally on the way. OOOOOH that reminds me.....

3. With Aya only a good say.....umm.....2 months or so away, my time spent here will obviously decrease somewhat. i'm not saying that my GS career is gonna be over (though it is a possibility) but a break will be taken to get things in order. hey who knows....maybe i might grace this place with my presence in the early hours of the morning when Aya-chan cant sleep. man thats gonna suck! hey...do you think C.C. will give me some sort of paternity leave to take care of business. that would be frickin cool! man...my 5 year GS career could potentially end just like that. that sure would be something and i didnt even complete my Ichigo blog. hell according to the story i didnt even get to high school yet. that sucks.....

4. As some of you might already be aware of....my wife is a super cool artiste and has done tremendous artwork with her friends and in college and blah blah blah. ANYHOO....word around the grapevine says that a certain somebody is quite interested in her work and wants to hire her to do professional work for their company for big dollars. Dai scoopu yo!!!!! Now as some of you may know again....i actually had to force her to start drawing and painting again because she had pretty much given it up. i hate to see talent wasted. if you wanna know what i'm talking about then go to the Toonami Union Fan Arts thread and you'll see some of her drawings and paintings. ANYWAY.....this offer actually has a price. we would have to permanently move to Tokyo which i'm not complaining about since her parents are there and could help out with Aya-chan. oh hey i thought about something.....

5. What if i converted that like 8-9 year old story that i've been writing since freshman year in high school into a manga or even an anime and she could be my head designer. that would be so FRICKIN KAWAI!!! but maybe i'm just having delusions of grandeur. the mind runs when it has a great thought and or idea lol. you tend to quickly escape reality that way. speaking of which....i havent wrote anything in that story for a good 6 months now. i should really get to ending it.....

6. Been reading a lot of manga lately and i've come to realize that in every high school title...there's at least one character (usually a girl) thats probably like the sempai of the group or some high ranking person that is the oldest and yet looks the youngest. whats up with that??? have you ever seen that in your school where you have someone thats like 18 but looks 12 or something??? i've only seen it like twice in my entire time in America (Japan on the other hand is a different story lol.) Instead what i see hear is the inverse and more people looking older than what they really are. i swear *begins shaking fist*....you young whipper snappers are growing up too fast!!!! Stop drinking that milk man. all those hormones are giving you those adverse effects. deprive yourself of vitamin A and D and i think C too right???

7. I'm getting hungry so i'm gonna wrap this up soon. Speaking of food....i put on a good 20 pounds this summer and am in decent defenseman shape for hockey. 205 is respectable and i can work with that and hone my rusty skills. who knows. its funny....though i am in fact 205....with my long arms and legs, you'd never guess it YET i'm only 6' tall. Is it a good thing to burn off food almost as quickly as you eat it??? I call it a curse and my wife (as well as pretty much any other female i come in contact with) calls it a god send. HA!!! yeah right i say.....

8. Time sure flew this year. Labor Day has passed and summer has unofficially ended with that. the season's are finally turning to my favor. this is my time to shine!!! the weather drops in temperature and the skies darken. its my paradise and especially living in New York by the water where you know you're gonna get a nice little sea breeze. its great!

9. As you can see....i'm a confused little boy. Ni-jyuu-ni-issai am i. Hey that rhymed!!!! Lived quite a life up to this point and seen lots of interesting things and people....but for some reason i feel that my life wont officially begin until Aya-chan gets here. Is that weird??? Or is that like some sort of instinctive feeling that soon to be father gets at certain points of time? Odd....

Theres tons more to write but i dont feel like it. Hunger is kicking in and plus rambling on and on seems kinda pointless. Then why did i do it in the first place you ask??? *shrugs shoulders* beats me. Did you learn anything??? If you did then maybe it was all worth it.....maybe. Anyway this is Nica/Melon lord/Teddy-kun signing off on Super Random Rants! Dai-Go......

oooh dont worry my Ichigo blog fans....it'll come back by next week and to celebrate an important anniversary....WITH COLOR PAGES!!!!!! LOL.....

*Beep Beep Beep* Hmm??? (My eyes open to the sound of the alarm ringing on my phone. I shut it off and look at the time.) Aww man....6 o clock. *Sigh* its for BT Tech, just remember that. (Slowly i make my out of the house. The brisk breeze cuts through my face instantly opening my eyes and removing my drowsiness. As i walk down the path to school i look around the block.) *Sigh* Everyone's lights are off. I bet i'm the only retard up around this time....well besides X and Y. Hmph, i wonder if they'll even show up. Boy would that be the ultimate joke on me. (Suddenly i hear a sneeze at an upcoming corner. Lo and behold it turns out to be Y just standing there shivering under a lamp post.) Hey Y, what the hell are you doing standing out here in the cold??? Not to sound like my parents or nothing but you could seriously catch pneumonia or something. "Umm...well...you see....(she begins to figet somewhat.) I actually was walking to school and just happened to sneeze. It is terribly cold nowadays." Hmm....(I watch her carefully.) Fine, well since you're here, why not we get to school together? (I grab her hand and begin pulling her.) Personally i love the cold and feel that it could stand to get a bit colder. This is really nothing. It sure is dark this time of morning. Hey, how about from now on, we walk to school together??? "I dont know about that one." Nonsense, we meet up almost halfway there plus i dont like the fact that you're travelling alone and its so dark outside. "Hmm...well that does make some sense. I'll take it into consideration." (As we walk down the street, Y pulls her hand away from me and i stare at her causing what i would assume was great discomfort for her.) "Umm....well....my hand was getting colder so i wanted to put it in my pocket." Fair enough.

(We continue to walk and the sun slowly begins to rising, increasing the temperature maybe 2-3 degrees. When we reach the school, the custodian lets us in and we begin to make our way to the library.) "Hey, do you think X made it here before us?" Who knows. She does have a thing for punctuality so it wouldnt suprise me one bit. (I reach the library door and open it to see X standing there with her arms folded and her face showing dispeasure.) Crap, i know that face. 'You know, i'm kinda getting tired of dealing with your lateness.' But we're only late by....well thats not important. 'What do you mean WE?' Well Y is here too. (I open the door wider and Y stands with her head lowered in a shy manner.) "I sincerely apologize for arriving late. I know that you're relying on me to help you and lateness is unacceptable. Please forgive me." (X's anger quickly lifts with the apology and a smile crosses her face. She walks over to Y and pulls her in the library.) 'Dont worry about it. This one time is nothing to be sorry over. Lets just make up for lost time by learning as much as possible now.' (As we sit down i notice continue to stare at me.) What happened? 'You were late again.' So....'Dont So me. I forgave Y because it was her first time, but you....you do it on every occasion. THATS IT.....from now on, i'll be accompanying you to school. No ifs ands or buts! You take me home in the afternoon and i take you to school in the morning. It all evens out in the end.' Well thats great! Now we all can walk to school toegether! (I look up at Y who watches her notebook. She looks up at me and forces a fake smile that hides her pain.) "Umm...dont worry about me. You just worry about yourself. I think i'll be here a lot earlier than you two to further my studies so that when you guys come, i'll be more inclined to help you out." Oh.....okay i guess. 'Good, then its settled. Expect to see me tomorrow at 5 in the morning!!!!' Aww man....(Time begins to pass by. The studies go well as Y proves to be quite the teacher. Her notes improve our understanding of the cirriculums and at the end of it all, X and I feel as if we've made great strides into getting into BT Tech. The bell rings for 8 and X leaves.) 'I have to get to my early class. I'll see you all later.' (She runs out of the library and i slump into my chair.) This studying thing kinda pisses me off. I'm not the type to be doing this. I pass without studying and i personally feel that studying actually worsens my chances to pass. "Is it because you dont understand the math?" (She walks over from the other side of the table and leans over my shoulder. Her sweet scent wafts through my nose. Its an intoxicating scent that relaxes me and quickly reminds of X.) "Look these problems are simple as long as you remember this formula." (She begins writing it down and her breasts begin to rub on my shoulder. Being th horny little adolescent that i was at the time, that somehow began sparking a reaction *Hint Hint*.) Umm Y...."Hold on, let me finish." (I had always been close to her before but i dont think i ever really saw her. As she wrote, i began noticing how curvy her body really was. Apparently she was one of those early bloomers as they say. I turn my head and watch.) Umm....Y. (My comfort level begins to drop and i become antsy.) "What happened?" (She turns her head and notices that we are face to face with one another. So close that on her turn, our lips actually touch for a split second. Her eyes widen, her cheeks blush after the realization and she freezes in place. So there we are, almost frozen in time, face to face.) Umm....cute and all but could you back up a little Y. "Oh yeah, it would be kinda awkward if someone caught us in this position. From behind it almost looks like we were kissing." (She backs away and i chuckle and agree. I turn to the library door directly behind us as someone runs away from the door.) No way....umm Y i'll be right back.

(Quickly i run out the library and notice as the stairwell door closes. i run through and hear footsteps going down the stairs quickly. My heart begins to pound with the fear that it might've been X who saw us and misunderstood the situation.) DAMN IT! This is not good. (Y walks into the stairwell with my bag.) "Hey, class is about to start so lets get a move on." Uhh.....yeah....let's do that. (Midday comes and i scower the school looking for X. When my search comes up empty, i go up to the roof to think and also hope that she may be up here. I burst through the door and the frigid air is the only thing to greet me. Slowly i walk to the roof fence and look out to the skyline.) Where have you gone X? Where have you gone? (The day passes relatively quickly and for once i actually get to the front gate of the schoolyard early in hopes of being the one to have to wait as opposed to the other way around. For half an hour i stood waiting. I went inside and checked her club room and no one was there, i continued to search the school and yet no one was there. It wasnt until i gave up hope and began making my way to the exit, where i saw her. She was walking through the exit. I called out to her, but she didnt respond and merely shut the door behind her. I continued my chase and eventually caught up to her right outside the courtyard.) Hey, i was looking for you all day. Where were you? 'Thats not important.' But i wanna know! You disappear for the whole day and just expect me to accept it? 'Yes i do. Just....just....(her voice begins to waver) just leave me alone!' (She turns away from me and runs down the street. I merely stand with confusion in front of the school and watch her run. She stops at the corner and looks back at me. Her look is sad and yet her eyes show that she wants me to follow her. Again, being the dumb adolescent, i dont pick up on it so X merely turns back around and runs away out of my sight.) *Sigh* I wonder what that was all about. Was it really her back at the library? Hmm??? (I look up to the roof and there stands Y looking out over the fence. She begins waving down to me.) "HEY!!!! WANNA READ MY STORY?" Sure, why not. (I begin walking back to the school watching Y as she looks down upon me with a smile on her face.) I hope this chapter is as good as the last one. (And just like that, my anxiety had disappeared as well as my thoughts about X. That winter's day, my focus lay completely on Y and her awesome story without thoughts of what reprecussions that action may have had on X, Y and myself.....

So its back. My life as Ichigo 100% Episode 3. In our last installment, I had just gotten X to accept my offer to go out much to Y's disdain. What will happen now??? Let's see.....

BRILLIANT!!!! (The cool autumn breeze blew over the rooftop as i exclaimed over another great chapter produced by Y.) "You know, I figure i've said it before, but you truly have a knack for this. You really should pursue writing as more than just a hobby. You could create some great novels if you you really tried. To think that THIS....this great story is something you barely even take into consideration and think of as poor. I'd love to see what you consider good if this is bad!" (She begins to blush and quickly turns her head away from me and looks down to the school yard.) Hey, isnt that X down there??? "Huh?" I peek over the rail and see X standing at the front gate. "Aww CRAP!!!! My alarm didnt ring on my watch. I"M LATE!!!!!" (I quickly get up, dust myself off and begin running to the rooftop door.) I'll see you tomorrow....right??? "Of course, same place and same time. Just make sure to have another great story waiting for me. (i open the door and begin walking inside but quickly turn around.) Later days Y!" *Sigh* The sigh caught my ear as i gazed upon Y.

The orange-red hue of the setting sun cast an outline around Y and for an instant, a brief moment, i saw the beautiful goddess that i had laid my eyes upon on my first trip up to the roof. The girl who had once stole my breath and was one of the leading reasons as to my constant trips back up to the roof. (I mean yeah reading the stories were great but i wanted to see that girl again.) In that fleeting moment, as Y and I locked eyes, i could see the sadness portrayed in them and another sigh was uttered from her breath. Slowly the door shut and i quickly came back to my senses. *GASP* X! I gotta go!!! Racing down the steps and out the school to the courtyard i went. At the gates waited X ever patiently and ever beautifully. I stopped in front of her breathing heavily. (Running down six floors of steps is not fun!) "Hey.....i.....made it." Doubled over with my hands on my knees, all i could see was a skirt that was a tad bit shorter than the rest and thinking to myself that she was all mine. Slowly i began lifting my head as i began regaining my breath. As i made it to her face, i could see a look of anger all over it. 'Its been two weeks and we've been doing the same thing every single day! When are you gonna surprise me and actually be on time?' "Umm....well....you see....." '*Sigh* Just forget it.' The anger in her face lifts and all thats left is a smile. A smile that instantly washed away my fears and made me believe that everything would be okay. 'Oh just look at you!!! You're sweating! Exactly what were you doing to get yourself in such a state? *Gasp* You werent....you werent doing THAT were you?' My eyes widen after realizing what she was talking about. She utters a chuckle after seeing my response. 'Of course not, you're my good boy. ("Her good boy" i think to myself) She pulls out her hankerchief and begins cleaning my face. 'I swear i wont always be around if you keep playing around like this. (She caresses my cheek with her hand and a smile comes to my face.) Now come on and lets go.' She's begins walking down the block. As i begin to walk away, something catches the corner of my eye. I look to the rooftop and there i see Y leaning on the gate looking down to me. I wave a happy goodbye and she gives a half-hearted wave back. From such a distance, my eyes meet hers and time froze. The winds died, the cars on the street and the other people walking around me seemed to all have been put on mute. Her eyes told their own story. They told me of how sad and jealous Y was for X's happiness with me and how she longed to be the one to be walking home with me at that point in time. Being an oblivious adolescent at the time pretty much guaranteed that i didnt catch any of that. Time started up again and i ran off in pursuit of X.....

"I find it quite odd that she would pick someone like you. I think she has some sort of alterior motive." Another two weeks have passed and my pretty boy friend and i are talking over lunch. "I mean of all the guys in the school, why would she choose you. Especially when someone like me, who is desired by every woman in the district is here in her school." You sure are a cocky bastard you know. Look all i know is that X likes me and our relationship is very healthy at the one month mark. "Really? Its already been one month huh? Tell me something....how many 'confrontations' have you gotten yourself into over that stretch because of this girl?" (He's right. I've been approached by a good amount of guys over this month because of X, but how does he know that?) I look up at him and wonder. Suddenly, X walks into my room and up to the pretty boy and I. 'Sorry to intrude, but he and I have some stuff to discuss.' "Trouble in paradise already buddy?" Shut up! X and I begin walking down the hall much to the chagrin of the male student body. We make our way up to the roof. So whats up? What do we need to discuss? 'Well its getting late into the fall and is almost winter. This is the time in which we will be approached by our counselors to decide what high school we'll be attending. Do you know where you wanna go???' Hmm....well if i were to pick now, i would say BT Tech. it has a great baseball program and being a private academy, it only allows people based on its rigorous testing. 'Hmm rather interesting. Well then, i'll help you to get there as much as i possibly can.' And what about you X. where exactly do you plan on going? 'Well.....(she begins stretching and her uniform shirt lifts from her skirt, showing her slim, well shaped waist) i was planning on going to BST but my teachers have all told me that my scores are nowhere near close to getting into that school and passing their test.' Wow, the top school in the entire city huh??? 'Yup, and so i've decided' Huh??? (she begins to drop her arms as the wind blows her short glistening brown hair over her face) 'I've decided to study to try and enter your school. If i cant get into the top rated school for myself, then i'll get into the second highest rated school for you. You and I will continue to be together!' She hugs me tightly as the wind blows and the midday sun pours onto us.

Suddenly i notice the roof door move a few inches. Hmm??? Hey, stop hiding inside and show yourself! X releases her hug as we both look to the door. Y suddenly walks through and out onto the roof with us. "Umm, i apologize for intruding. I merely wished to come up here and write a little." (I notice the same sad look in her eyes. Her smile is fake.) 'Oh hey its no biggie. You didnt see anything right??? (She nods no) Well then yeah it was no biggie. Say....hey Y what school do you plan on going to??? I bet its BST right???' "You're right. I've studied my entire middle school just for the sake of gracing that school with my presence. I really hope to pass that test and get it." Well thats great Y. I plan on going to BT Tech. "Well thats great. I wish you nothing but the best." '*clears throat* I plan on going there too ya know. I wanted to go to BST but my grades arent good enough. HEY I KNOW!!!! Y....how about you tutor us so we have a better chance at passing that entrance exam for BT Tech?' We couldnt possibly force her away from her studies just to help us. "Oh its no problem. I'll use the time to study up as well." 'She is the top rated student in our school anyway so it shouldnt be much of a problem to learn with her being our teacher dont ya think?' I....guess so X. 'Alright, then its settled then. We'll begin morning tutoring in a week in hopes of passing that exam! Yeah i cant wait!!! I'll see you around. School is about to start up again.' X runs past Y and into the school. Y begins to walk up to me as i lean on the roof gate. "Never a dull moment eh???" You can say that again. "Here you go. (She hands me her notebook.) Thats the latest installment. Enjoy it okay?" (I stare at the book for a while as Y calls back out to me directly in front of the door. She removes her glasses and begins wiping the lens with a smile. My eyes are pierced with the image of the sun shining off her black pigtails.) *Gasp* The goddess! (Once again like before, for a split second the goddess had revealed herself before me and again i stood dumbfounded and unaware of the truth. "In any case, I am looking forward to working with you before class each day. This will be great fun!" (she puts on her glasses and walks inside and i stare as she disappears out of sight. I turn around and look over the city horizon for a few minutes.) Fun huh??? *Sigh* I sure hope you two are right about that.....
