Well, Christmas has come and gone, and it couldn't have been any better for me; first of all, I GOT A NEW COMPUTER!!! FINALLY!!! Oddly, I got it exactly a year after I got my laptop (the slowest piece of crap I've ever seen)... oh, and just to get this out of the way, here are my new computer's specs:

MODEL: Dell OptiPlex GX260 w/ 2 CD drives ( )
PROCESSOR: 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 processor
GRAPHICS: NVidia Vanta
RAM: 512 MB, upgradeable to 2 GB
HDD: 18 GB

Anyways, my mom also got me a $50 gift card to Wal-Mart (thank you, Mom! ), and I used part of it to buy a webcam (albeit a cheap one... oh well), so I might (key word: might ) finally post my works here on DA! Whoo-hoo!

Well, I know it's been almost two months since I've updated my journal, and yes, I still hate that Cartoon Network cancelled Toonami, but I've learned to just move past it... besides, it was on for over 11 years, what more do you want? Besides, Naruto's still on (albeit irregularly), and if you want to see whatever left Toonami, it's on Toonami Jetstream: [link]
Anyways, on with the journal... Christmas is coming up, and I still don't know what I want (and what's worse, I only have a week to decide! AAAAHHH!!! ) I could get a digital coamera or something like that, but my dad has set a strict $100 limit on gifts... that sucks, because if I get the wireless router I want, I can't get anything else... if you want, help me by sending some ideas (remember, there's a $100 limit!)

I am in utter shock right now... as of last night, Cartoon Network made the stupidest decision they've ever made: Toonami was cancelled effective September 20, 2008. I suspect that making it a 2-hour block on Saturday might have killed it... but what's going to happen to Naruto? Will Shippuden have to be missed by all of America? And what about the rest of the regular series? I, for one, have started a boycott against Cartoon Network until they reinstate Toonami, as well as the rest of the anime that have been put on hold/cancelled. Those who agree can leave a comment in my journal, and I will try to respond ASAP.

yes, folks, I am actually going to do something I thought I would never do: rant about Naruto.
More specifically, the fact that Sasuke has apparently become the new main character of the manga, because when I checked, it was called "Naruto", not "Sasuke, The Whiny, Emo Fangirl Fixation Who Really Needs To Crawl Into A Hole And Die Because Nobody Gives A Shit!"
Why does Sasuke get all the fucking attention? He's not even that great of a fighter! All he has going for him is that weird atom/Jewish star-looking Sharingan of his, and all he can do is copy other peoples moves, seeing as it's just a Sharingan eye, after all.
P.S. To all the Sasuke fangirls out there: get a life! It's not like Sasuke will warp out of the paper and fufill your every fantasy (however sick it may be), and Sasu/Saku or Sasu/Naru or even Sasu/Itachi will never happen!
Again, get a fucking life!
*sigh* Thank you for your time, and if you are offended by this journal, I'm sorry, it is simply my opinion, and I believe in a little thing called free speech.

UPDATE: today (8/6/08) I reached 1,000 pageviews!!! Thanks to all who visited my page, and I hope that many more will continue to stop by my page!

well, I finally figured out how to get text like this , and this , and even _this! How, you ask? HTML coding! I knew those lessons would be of some use eventually!
