(Nicovideo)

Here’s a vocal arrange of Flandre’s theme. As usual, it sounds a lot better on Nicovideo. No daily flash today because I don’t really have time. A lot of homework and whatnot. Anyhow, waking up at 6:30 wasn’t too bad, actually. But that may just be because we’re not going to be doing anything in gym until Monday. Then I’ll probably start to hate it.

Another possible title could be “when something bad happens to you but something bad also happened to someone else and you get into a discussion about which person has a worse situation” or “horrible schedules.” Well anyway, we got new schedules today, again. Mine is pretty much exactly the same as it was before, except I have a zero-period gym class, which starts at 7:30 in the morning. I’ll have to wake up at 6:30 every day, which isn’t really so great because now I’m used to waking up at 8. Now, my school day goes from 7:30 in the morning to 3:50ish in the afternoon, which is over 8 hours. Bleh.

I was fine with getting out of school late, because at least I got to sleep later, but now I guess I can’t do that anymore. I’ll probably get used to it after awhile, but it’s still a horrible schedule. And besides, I’m sure lots of people in the world have worse schedules than mine, so using Unnamed Character’s flawless logic, I have no right to complain.

Oh yeah, and in response to SomethingUnreal’s suggestion, you can now use the arrow keys on your keyboard to go back and forth between frames. You’ll have to click on the embedded flash to target the swf first, though.

I made this because I was sorta reading ZUG earlier today. Anyway, tomorrow’s Friday! Hooray! The week went by sorta fast. I guess I’m getting used to being dismissed at 3:45pm. Well, except today, which was a 3:00 dismissal. Sorta weird because last year, I got dismissed at 3:00 on Thursdays, and I was always like “wow, it’s so late!” This year I get dismissed at 3:00 on Thursdays and I’m like “wow, it’s so early!”

First day of school

Today was a bad first day. Well, not so much of a bad first day as it is a bad rest-of-the-year. The biggest change is the addition of 10th period classes (we used to have only 8 periods a day, with the occasional 9th). Normal school dismissal time was at around 2:15, but now with all these classes and 10th period, my school day ends at almost 4pm. I guess the only good news about that is that I get to start school at around 9am (an hour later than previous years). Lunch got pushed forward to 10:30am, which is weird because who eats lunch at 10:30 in the morning anyway? In any case, since school ends at around 4, that’d be five and a half hours without eating stuff, so most people are probably going to get hungry again. Now that I think about it, there’s too much stuff for me to complain about, and I don’t really feel like doing that now, so I guess I’ll just leave it at that for the moment.

Anyway, the drawings and handwriting in the flash might look a bit different because I’m on my laptop now, and I’m using a smaller wireless mouse, so it feels different.

Yesterday, I got a package of gifts from my friend in Japan! It’s a bunch of Touhou stuff from Reitaisai and Comiket earlier this year. It came in one of those regular white mail packets (regular except for the fact that it was a Japanese packet), but inside the packet was a gold-colored bag with the rest of the stuff inside. I took pictures with my dad’s camera, which you can see above.

There was a gold Omekashi bag, a blue Cirno plastic bag, a Maikaze music CD (well, it actually has 2 CDs), an art book, a book of lineart from the art book, a plastic rectangle thing with a picture of Cirno and a drink, a plastic Cirno keychain, a Youmu badge, and a letter. Very cool stuff. The art book is a collection of drawings and stuff from various artists, with Touhou characters wearing modern clothes. There were also some short comics in the book, apparently about Marisa starting a Gensokyo fashion show, which I guess sets up the artwork-based portion of the book (Scans can be found in a zip file here).

I still haven’t removed the Cirno keychain and Youmu badge from the plastic wrappers, but I probably will when I find some place to put them. I’ll probably put the keychain on my keys, because that’s what keychains are supposed to be for, right? Probably. Anyway, yeah… really nice stuff.
