Alyssa's WORDS-OF-WISDOM!

"Can I borrow a bowl? I wanna have cereal tomorrow."
In today's news, Magic the gathering is the shit. Also, it's a great weekend to hang with friends and be awesome like I know you are.

Snow finally arrived on the grounds of NYC and I couldn't be happier. The snow is absolutely gorgeous and Now, I'm very much in the Christmas spirit. So screw you Earth for being a month behind.
Anyhow... uh. Tell me how your weekend was. If you haven't told anyone yet, you might as well tell someone!

What is love? Baby don't hurt me. Don't hurt me. No more.

As a kid I was always a hopeless romantic. I was constantly questioning the idea of love. How it was felt, expressed, or discovered.
Even now, I have about the same understanding on the subject as I had before then. Nothing.
Love is just an enigma to me. It's quickly moving, fading, popping up in the oddest of places, and always introducing you to a new point of view in the world.

That's another thing that I've noticed! Love doesn't always make you notice people! It can make you notice how the wind blows. How the sun shines on a building face and reflects onto the ground. Or it can make you have a new interest. A passion can be ignited.

Maybe love isn't an emotion. Could it be simply your heart speaking to you?  Just telling you what it wants to try? There are plenty of times when a passion pulls me to something new and I didn't like it that much. Maybe that was my heart saying it wanted to try. Then, just as fast as the feeling appeared, it was gone.

Who knows. There's my philosophy for the day.

Social links: understanding +2; knowledge +1, courage +4, expression +3, diligence +1
Some amazing news today! SOPA and PIPA have been knocked out of the park! The numbers reached into the millions of people taking part and we managed to fight off the lot.

The internet showed it's teeth and told the government we were not going to deal with their shit. Thank you internet! Together we did it.

Great news!

Edit: Mik raises a point! The war isn't over! Just keep doing what we've been doing for the past month! Keep going! keep fighting! It's on the final stretch.

Yours is the drill that will peirce the heavens

Man I've just been getting into animes recently and I'm kinda diggin' it.

A couple essentials that any Anime fan should know about are Fooly Cooly and Gurren Lagann. They're both "giant mecha japanese anime", but they both have unbelievable stories that are thrilling to reach an end to. I know you're probably sick of me talking about anime, but I commend to you my regards for these series'. They're well made indeed.
TTFN.

Shameless Plug..... Lol....

A great great great friend o' mine, Matthew "Motherfuckin" Tricky, has a video blog, or video..... news cast, or whatever he calls it. But the name is "First Perk Daily" and he's just a great ball of energy and he gives some fun facts, has the viewers take part in some stuff, and he's just an all around good person.
You don't have to follow it faithfully, but at least humor me now and play just a little bit of it.


When he refers to "town" he means the fantastical town of Yakima, Washington and Manic Thunder is the improv troop that him, my dad, and a bunch of friends are in. If you're anywhere near the area, I'd highly recommend going sometime.

Matthew, I lub you.

Laugh Damnit

Have you ever had a day where your energy is just really high? Or maybe it's a day where you just feel really good!

This is one of those days for me. It's awesome! I've felt lethargic for the past like two months and now! Suddenly, my mind opens up and I'm spinning super fast on a trail of thought and clarity. 

Anyhow, do update things, school has settled (finally) and I'm back on a (quasi) normal sleep schedule, I'm coasting, and it feels great.

Now over break I said I was so sick of top ramen (maruchan or the latter) that I probably would never eat it again. But upon my return to school, where my diet is suddenly restricted to essentials and fruit, I am missing top ramen. that's a problem. I should be getting a package soon though so that's good.

I find myself wanting to play ultimate frisbee too. Like really bad. And I really want a guitar. Or at least have one to learn how to play. I'd even be okay with a bass. I'd learn the shit out of that. Oh well. We'll see where this leads and whether I follow through or not.

As to my followers and readers, I hope you forgive me for not updating recently. Not only is it somewhat difficult for me as a person to keep up with a blog, but recently I've been extremely busy since I've returned to school. Fortunately, I will do what I can to update a little more now.

Love everyone!

Persona 4

To anyone interested, there is a Anime that is currently being subbed episode by episode. The story is actually really cool, the characters hilarious, and the writing,  although sometimes kinda "engrish-y",  is truly brilliant. It's based on a video game that came out for the Playstation 2.
The show is called Persona 4.
To anyone interested, there's only 12 episodes out so far and they're still coming out, slowly but surely.
It's a great show and I'm certain you'd enjoy it even if you don't really enjoy animes.  It's about a bunch of kids who try to solve a mystery by going inside televisions and fighting these shadow figures and saving victims of kidnapping cases that have been happening around their local area.

Hope you guys enjoy. It can be found here:

Happy friday!
