        Well, my dance practice schedule is gonna be ruined. On the bright side, I pretty much got the dance down, even though I didn't practice today.

        And besides the usual, I worked on some aesthetic K-Pop shirt designs for funsies. I was planning on ordering my one custom ones, but, since I've already ordered so many packages my mom's already thinking that I'm balling out of control. Umm, so yeah nothing much has been going on, I at least got my haircut today, just in time for senior portraits, as well as that hair dye that's supposed to be arriving tomorrow.

        I really wanna take in as much of the last series premier as I can, but some shit's preventing me from that, it really does. Anyways, it's 11:09 PM (only 11:09 PM), see ya.

        It's 12:22 AM, I'm not sweaty, I'm tired. Like, tired. There's been KDT discussion, people going to K-Con LA, my boy Ad snapchatting me him opening my letter that I wrote to him, and just the usual. I could go into more detail, but, after having to restart my PC because Sony Vegas froze when I was trying to render a spliced "Monster" dance clip to practice to, I think I'm good for today. See ya.

Songs to Remember: Monster - EXO

        So me posting at this hour, which is 12:12 AM, could only mean 2 things: either I forgot to make a post, or I just finished dance practice.

        It's the latter this time. I went through the part I learned last night and after closer evaluation, I learned it wrong. So, I fixed what I learned wrong (which was slightly minimal, just the leg movements) aaand just continued to work on the same part. After that (aka, when it got to almost 12:00 AM and I was fucking tired and sweaty as hell), I decided to call it a good practice for the day, and just took a quick look at what I'll be attempting to learn tomorrow, which is the 2nd half to the end of EXO's "Monster" dance's 3rd chorus, including the "creeping" part.

        Pretty easy looking, but what matters for this part is execution more than anything. And after that, I'll be done with the required parts (the parts the KDT teachers and I agreed upon for being included in the Lunar Show mix, not finalized yet, but for the most part, right now). I could go on learning a few bits and pieces more of the song, but I think I'll just memorize the rest of the song (visually) in case we need references for things such as, transitions.

        For example, during the VSA show practices (like, maybe the week before or something before the actual show), the BTS teachers added a small part, an intro, before the main dance. For the most part, we were able to learn it after a few practices. So just things like that, ya know, if things don't quite flow well. But anyways, I'm thinking of doing BTS' "Fire" dance next (just the required parts) and then VIXX's "Chained Up" (required part as well). Mostly because I do like those songs and the more I like a song, the more, uhh, "effort" or whatever, I put into it.

        If I do a song that I hate (i.e TWICE's "Cheer Up"), I might just keep a straight frown for the whole thing, heh. But yeah, the more I like a song, the more "umph" I put into performing it, or learning it Take Taemin's "Drip Drop" for example. I wasn't required to learn it, but I still did it, and, in the midst the school year too. Anyways, in other news, I got a more efficient Pokemon Go bot, yadda yadda, the usual, the cast (most of) did a game night today but I chose not to go due to how tired I was after having to drive with "multidirectional" instructions, and uh, Skype. I also made an excuse to not go to the KDT Red Velvet's "Ice-cream Cake" dance workshop, simply because, I don't think I'm ready to learn a dance (of which the song I do not like. And, I believe I ain't ready). Anyways, see ya.

Songs to Remember: Monster - EXO

        After practicing for the past couple hours or so, I was wondering why I was not as tired as I was when practicing other songs. I then attempted to do the dance at full-speed instead of half-speed like I was practicing with, and uh, yeah now I'm tired.

        That feel when you think a dance is not that challenging to learn, only to realize you've only been doing it at half-speed, heh. So yeah, I did practice EXO's "Monster" dance today. Got a good, maybe 10, 15 seconds of it down (the moves at least, not sure yet about the speed). Got about, 35 seconds more or so to learn. Maybe 40. But, good progress for the first day/time.

        In other news, I did go driving today, and, I did lie down today. For a semi-nap. Not gonna link driving to my sleepyness/tiredness, but I'm leaning towards it. It's 12:13 AM, the cast is apparently hosting a game night tomorrow at Ek's house, with, some other guests whom I have no connection with (they're, badminton sorta people so) at around 2:30 PM or so. Still, not sure if I wanna go or not, it's all up to, my level of hyperactivity I guess, heh. Anyways, see ya.

Songs to Remember: Very Nice - Seventeen

        Unfortunately it's 1:30 AM right now and I just lost 3 games of League with the Discord fam, fortunately, I got a bot to level up my Pokemon Go account, there's no school tomorrow, and, my fine got cleared.

        I did have to call in, luckily the book manager was really insightful because she asked me "Who's your teacher?" I was like "Mr. Blankety Blank." "Yeah, he probably forgot to turn 'em in." So I'm guessing she got calls and stuff before about the same problem. Also, it would look kinda suspicious with the amount of people who have the exact same book lost/overdue.

        And apparently others have called in too (those from my English class) today, about the same problem. So the fine's taken care of now, as for my Pokemon Go activities, I was just curious on the uh "hacks" available for the game. I was bored, didn't really care about my account, ethics, whatever. I found that there were bots (didn't think they were possible, but apparently it is) just auto-capturing, auto-spinning Pokestops, and the like. Downloaded a couple, tried 'em out, and now I'm level 25 (from level 22, just today).

        As for the day, it was the usual again. I did not learn any parts of the "Monster" dance (of which I will be teaching on the 6th of August). I've always practiced at night when my parents are not present and are asleep. So, getting caught up with late dank League play kinda gets in the way of that. But, tomorrow will be different. Hopefully.

        Currently, I got senior portraits on the 4th, KDT practice on the 6th, photo and ID registration on the 9th, and school. On the 11th. Which brings me to my next point: doing that math packet is gonna suck ass, heh. Anyways, see ya.

Songs to Remember: What's Your Number? - Zhoumi

        First of all, I got a lot to say. Second of all, I got lot to do. Thirdly, it's 12:08 AM and I probably could've done something had I not spend about an hour looking up how to dye black hair blue and doing surveys.

        Today I received a letter in the mail from my school, stating that I can't register online until I pay the fee or return my lost "textbook," aka, the paper-back book that my English teacher did not return to the book-room to be scanned. And yeah, apparently you can register online starting, today or something, 'course, since my info is already in the system, I just need to confirm it and that there's no changes and that's it. Way more efficient than freshman year, when they still had like, signed papers and shit. Now it's just, you click "I agree to the terms and conditions."

        Luckily there's a phone number provided of the textbook manager so instead of going over in person to tell them the stupid story (of a ten fucking dollar book), I can just call them. Besides that, KDT has been in the talks today. The cabinet discussed some stuff involving the upcoming workshops, and if you don't know what that means, it's basically like an activity, an optional thing. For fun. Except, the former KDT president advised that the event post on the page for the upcoming Red Velvet's "Ice-cream Cake" dance workshop (which is apparently on the 30th, of this month) be labeled as "mandatory" in order to get people to come.

        Which is a great tactic by the way, heh. It's not actually mandatory. And if people can't come, they provide a legit excuse and shit. I, however, am part of the cabinet group chat, so, I know that I don't HAVE to go. And to be honest, I don't think I wanna learn the dance. It's girly, I'm not good with girly dances, and I don't quite enjoy the song as much. At all really. I will show up for the EXO's "Monster" dance workshop though, because I am one of the assistants for the dance. That will be on August 6th, a Saturday).

        Which brings me to talking about how school starts on a Thursday this time. It really screws with the seasons thing, like, Precisely Refined season 1 is gonna start with just, summer, or me doing a math packet. I guess it's because they want us students to get a taste of school again (the Thursday and Friday) and then have the weekend to recooperate, prepare, prepare for the shitstorm, and then a real week again. 'Cause, I'm not gonna lie, I am sure to not be able to wake up at 7:30 AM. Except for the 1st day of school, just 'cause the thought's gonna linger in my mind and therefore, I won't be able to sleep.

        Just like last night, except it wasn't about school, I think, and mostly because it was hot. It was like 65 degrees last night, today peeked at 89 degrees (Fahrenheit of course), and I even had the fan on last night for air circulation and white noise. Anyways, the KDT cabinet was also in the talks of whether some of us would be going to this social, organized by several dance/performance groups, most of which we performed with at that uh, dance show thing, in April I think. It was a K-Pop, or, themed performance show, I know what I'm talking about just can't remember the exact name.

        But it looks like KDT won't be attending the thing because, most of us are kinda busy, and, to be honest, would rather relax and prepare for the shitstorm, than, go to a social that I ain't ready for. Speaking of being ready, I'm planning to dye my hair. A tiny bit, very lightly, almost unnoticeable except if you look really closely or in nice lighting. Now I've thought about the idea for a long time, my parents obviously would not agree with me on dying it, I've been curious on dying it probably because of growing up with anime and Yugioh, ya'll know how crazy their hair is. So there's that.

        The dye will be almost unnoticeable, and, it'll fit with the KDT thing. There's a few members who've dyed their hair, umm, they've had it dyed even for their senior portraits, so I thought "Hey, it'd be something to remember." Like, you look at the picture, you're gonna be like "Remember that time you dyed your hair?" or "Omg, back when I had blue hair!" I don't think that'll be me, but. It's something new and fun. Ish, heh.

        And yes, it'll be blue. Dark blue. Talking, dark blue. And not the entirety of my hair, probably the front bit. Uhhh, yeah that's actually all what I wanted to say. Today was just a relaxing day, just the usual, I don't need to go in-depth on that. Soundtrack for the upcoming series is actually building up quite nicely, got about, 13+ tracks right now, not including previous series tracks that will be played occasionally. Anyways, it's now 12:38 AM, see ya.

        It's Monday, well, was Monday, and I forgot that my buddies were planning to go bowling today. It was around 7:30 PM that I was reminded of it, and at that point, I was getting ready to go shower and then eat dinner.

        And then usually after a nice dinner, I just feel like loafing around and not trying to do 3-pointers at a bowling alley. Also my mom would probably disapprove of going bowling with friends after 8:00 PM. Hell, she doesn't want me to stay later than 8:00 PM now at a friend's house even, let alone a blowing alley.

        So there's that. I think I'ma start practicing EXO's "Monster" dance 'cause I'm kinda un-motivated now in continuing to work on my cosplay. I mean I finished the major part of it, the foam armor, the rest I need to do is stick small pieces of foam to gloves, wrap foam around my ankles to make a boot-cover, and then order the jacket and wig online. All that, I could maybe do another time, working on this foam armor alone, just cutting, measuring, gluing, it was a lot of work.

        And I'm glad to say I finished it. Majority of it. It's a set, like, set 1 of, 3, the other 2 being the rest of the foam embellishments and boot-cover, and the jacket and wig ordering. It's currently 1:30 AM, I'm hot and sweaty from a couple League games with the Discord fam (the League games were pretty hyphy, and I treat 'em as hyphy to make it more fun), and yeah.

        Oh and I almost forgot- I watched The Purge: Election Year, over Skype of course. It was more plot involved than the other 2, umm, a lot longer too, it was like an hour and 47 minutes. The iconic characters used in the covers and trailers weren't that prominent or, scary. Intimidating, that's the word. They had a small amount of screen-time, and that was it. And also the movie had a lot, a lot, of African Americans. It was essentially African Americans versus crazy white people.

        Overall I still liked the 2nd movie the most, then it's a tie between the 1st and this Purge movie. Not bad though, and for a budget of ten-million dollars, it's pretty good. Alrighty, that's enough. See ya.

        It's Sunday, July 24th, drove for another 2 fucking hours, started the final gluing process for my cosplay armor but still not exactly finished, and uh, Skype.

        I think it's the 2-hour straight driving that tires me out. I never really needed an afternoon nap/lie-down 'till like, the 2-hour drive sessions. Today was nothing special besides the usual, the cast is planning on another game night on Friday of next week. Not sure if I'd wanna go because that's kinda near where I just wanna lounge around and prepare for the shitstorm that is, August 9th I think. 11th. Anyways, it's 11:35 PM, see ya.

        So today's Saturday, I knew I didn't update my song list in a while so I did. I also finished, for the most part, the painting for the majority of my cosplay armor. And out of curiosity, I checked the amount of posts and apparently we're approaching 900 posts.

        That's pretty crazy, that's 900 of, this. 'Course, half of it is just sorta consists of, this. Saying, the usual stuff, heh. Then there's the other half where's there's a lot of action, drama, plot development, and that's what I look forward to. But anyways, watched the 3rd episode of Qualidea Code, where it just got good, 2 hours of driving, and played some more Pokemon Go. I really am tired of it, there's nothing new to do, just the same old bugs that are still prevalent. On the bright side, haven't had much server issues, probably because I don't the app as often anymore, heh.

        No Skype today, my cousin's out driving to, maybe San Francisco or something. Either ways, he's busy. As for learning EXO's "Monster" dance, still haven't started yet, but I will. Same goes for that fucking math packet. It says not to cheat on the answers, that I'm only "hurting myself," and I hate that because it also says to use the internet for problems I don't know how to do. Like, really? Does that shit really need to be stated nowadays? "Use the internet?" I mean how else am I gonna access my textbook without lugging around 5 pounds of paper everywhere.

        That is pretty much it, it's 10:22 PM (was 10:22 PM, now it's 11:34 PM since I didn't finish the post), see ya.

        About 6 hours of painting. Not continuous, but close. Spent those 6 hours painting my cosplay armor, by hand.

        Maybe spray paint would've been a bit better, but whatever. I'll probably be finished with that by tomorrow, just gotta touch-up a bit of the paint, aaand, glue the armor sets together. I'll be finished with that section of my cosplay, for now. In other news, the KDT cabinet discussed shit today, regarding teachers and who will be teaching what.

        There's now a master-list of who's teaching which song, who the main teachers for the songs are, assistants, which part of the song, etc. And, looks like I will be assisting in the teaching of EXO's "Monster" after all. Which means, after I'm done with this cosplay stuff (for now), I'll be working on learning EXO's "Monster" dance.

        Also, coming up is a workshop, KDT workshop, in which we just teach each other songs. Dances. I don't know, Cc's been to one last summer, which is how she got into this KDT stuff (I think), and uh, yeah, you just learn dances like the usual. Currently voting on when that will be, whether it be on a Friday or Saturday. And, the song(s).

        In my day news, besides painting, watched the 4th episode of season 2 of Battlebots, Skype, YouTube, social media, all that usual stuff. Andy yeah, essentially it. Really tired, my hands are cramping from holding foam and paintbrushes all day, it's 11:39 PM, see ya.

        It's July 21st, which means that it's less than 10 days 'till August, which means, summer's basically over.

        It's over once it hits August because that reminds me of all the fucking commercials that I saw on TV years and years ago of back-to-school shit. Also I'm not sure if I've said this but my senior portrait photoshoot is scheduled for Thursday, August 4th, at 10:45 AM, at the school library. They're offering some crazy-ass prices for them, like, $40+ for a "standard" photoshoot. It includes 1 yearbook photo and 1 "other outfit." So you can uh, if your school provides it, have a picture of you and some hobby you like in the yearbook.

        But my school doesn't offer that, for us it's just that yearbook photo (the usual one) and for seniors, the senior portrait with the tuxedo/drape attire along with the senior quote thing. And uh, I really don't want any pictures of me in my senior immortalized, especially with a $40+ cost, so, yeah. As for digital pictures, you know the ones you take with your phone, that's an exception.

        I've seen a lot of people have Facebook albums with hundreds and hundreds of pictures of them having great times, I barely post any pictures, or take any for that matter. Maybe I'll do one this year I don't know, like I said, I ain't one of those people who take a lot of pictures, so getting into the habit of that is gonna be something.

        In other news besides the upcoming season, okay well maybe besides this: the opening for Precisely Refined. Currently it's Hobby's "Dollar" in the lead for it, nothing else seems to suit it currently, that, and there's not much of a selection either. Until, I finish listening to the newest Top 100 K-Pop Songs chart by DJ Digital of cours, but you get what I mean.

        Like I was saying, in other news, nothing much today but Skype, driving, and plastidipping. Did 2 coats on the outter surface of the armor, 2 coats on the inner surface of the armor, only because I actually needed to prime some of the sides which sorta stem into the inner areas, and to cover up some of the glue residue. Anyways, that's it for today, I think I've said that a bit too many times in a row for these posts but see ya.

       So my mom decided not to do any driving lessons today. Not sure why, 'cause I was ready to prove her wrong.

       I decided that in order to be the best I can be, I gotta start by proving others wrong, disapproving their doubts. Whether it be, skills, driving skills, whatever, it gives me something to work for, motivation. Like today. Instead of driving, I spent the time finishing up the cutting and gluing portion of my cosplay armor.

        Tomorrow it'll be either plastidipping and driving, or, just plastidipping, which is the next step for my cosplay armor. Nothing much else has been happening, besides, some online stuff. The cast and I (well the cast really) came up with the idea to uh, get a gift for DrewN's mom for having us over at his house all the time (doesn't really apply to me but I'm sticking with it).

Songs to Remember:

        Do we drive carefully so that we don't break the rules and get arrested, or do we drive carefully so that we avoid stupid-ass drivers?

        Instead of a peaceful (not that peaceful) drive, 1-hour continuous drive, on the same fucking road, my mom still criticizes me for my driving. Why? So she can be right. She always loves being right. The speed limit here's 25 mph right, and my mom's trying to teach me both, driving for the fucking driving test and regular driving as well. So, if I go 30 mph, she tells me to fucking slow down.

        I go 20-25, you know, the speed fucking limit, and she tells me I need to speed up. I also go a bit slower because my mom will get a fucking heart-attack if I go any faster. There was this one incident in which my mom will probably relay to everybody she knows and meets, including my dad already within 10 minutes of getting home. There was a truck that stopped in the lane at an intersection, like, to the side.

        The driver waves his hand, I didn't actually know what he meant by that, my mom said he was fucking backing up or something. She then tells me to go to the side so he can make a fucking u-turn, I don't know, that was what she said, and so I drive up a bit, to the other lane, in which my mom starts panicking, tells me to back up, I reverse, she gets a mini-heart attack, going "Ooh, ooh" and then tells me to just drive. She didn't explain to me "He's telling us to pass him, so just drive around him if you can."

        Instead, she tells me all that bullshit and this happens. She won't let it go, ever. In fact, after we got home since she said "You're angry, no more driving today" (for fuck's sake, I'm always angry, others would be pissed off as well if she was the one criticizing them for not driving exactly like her habits), she makes a fucking drawing of that incident to explain to me again what to do. Like, a literal drawing. even after all that shit, she doesn't let it go.

        Instead of telling her that I didn't know what the fuck his hand-waving meant and her fucking fiasco instructions, I just let her explain it to me. Again. Just took it all in. Because, she always loves to be right, even when I was like 5, doing fucking homework, she still loved to be right, I still remember examples of that. If you try to explain anything, even your thoughts, your perspective, she thinks you're arguing with her.

        And now you know why sometimes I act like this, like a fucking crybaby who can't grow up, because of years and years of this. I can see why my cousin, the one who stayed at my house during her 1st college year, had enough of this shit and shared rent with her friend at their own place. My mom baby'd her around, doing stupid shit like "Okay, internet only when your room is clean" and other shit like that. She was fucking 18 and older, living on her room, was paying rent for her room at my house, and my mom still acted like she was a child.

        I just can't seem to get the chance to be independent, to grow up, and now my childish habits are too prominent. It's fucking amazing. One day I'm just gonna break and floor it intentionally, so that it'd be all over. And of course, I'm joking, but that is really what it feels like having her in the passenger seat. Just, kill myself. Anyways, don't feel like doing anything today, no motivation whatsoever. See ya.

Still haven't practiced any dances yet, but I will do it once I feel like it, which is, probably after I finish my cosplay armor. Anyways, that's about it, see ya.

        July is almost half-over now, and I'm just starting to get productive on something, which is my cosplay.

        So, as you might've guessed my main cosplay material foam arrived today (unexpectedly. The estimated arrival date was the 24th, but I ain't complaining). And so, it was just cutting and cutting, template making, gluing, fitting, all that stuff. I'd say I'm about 1/6th finished, I got about 1/3 of the armor pieces done, just need to template and cut the rest, form-fit, detail, plastidip, and paint 'em and I'll be done, for the most part for now.

        Other than that, the rest of the day was just Skype, watching the 2nd episode of Qualidea Code, uhhhh, and random shit. Pokemon Go, it's gotten kinda boring, just essentially Pokeball simulator. As for the page, I made a quick side poster for the new series, I figured that because I made one for the last series, might as well continue it, for the last time, heh.

        If you think it's so boring staying at home Drew, then just wait 'till next week when you're gonna be having some of them driving lessons.

        And yes, my mom did make me drive around the neighborhood again. The rest of the day was just, Skype, doing math over fucking Skype, cosplay discussion, Pokemon Go discussion, the usual. Nothing really that amazing.

        I also forgot that I announced the name for the upcoming series, so I gotta get to work on that title card soon, maybe tomorrow. Oh and Pokemon Go, yeah, kinda getting sick of it, not because I'm "cheating," but, I can't find anymore "rare" Pokemon to catch. There's no point in gyms because all they give you is some stardust, barely any coins, aaand, powering up Pokemon is pointless since I'll probably catch some that are higher CP than the ones I have now.

        I still play it though, as in, mindlessly swiping my finger across my phone screen to chuck Pokeballs at Rattatas and Pidgeys. Anyways, that's it for today, see ya.

Songs to Remember: Fire Truck - NCT 127

        So I expected much to happen to today, and it did. Yesterday I was thinking about the upcoming series, not particularly the name for it, but who I was gonna associate myself with. I told myself that I wanted to refine my group, and then I thought "That actually sounds pretty good."

        Looked up a definition for "refined," which is "with impurities or unwanted elements having been removed by processing." Seemed pretty fucking good for what I wanna do with the new series. I thought that I needed to make my decisions carefully, on, who I wanted to associate myself with. And that sounded pretty good too. Looked up the definition for that word and "in exact terms; without vagueness" fit perfectly.

        It's 'cause I'm always indecisive on shit. I choose one thing, maybe feel regretful that I made that choice or I change my mind, etc. So I want to get rid of that too. And, by the end of that year, I wanna make sure I get all the bad out, none of that toxic shit, and do it with instinct and the first thought. That actually sounds pretty fucking good too, I mean "The First Thought?" But you see, if I go with that, I'll just be doing what I don't wanna do anymore, which is being indecisive.

        And so, the new series is gonna be called "Precisely Refined." Sorta a mouthful, but look at the first 2 series, heh. Anyways, today was 4 things: Pokemon Go, driving practice, game night, and League. Pokemon Go over Skype, we all know how it goes. Driving practice, was not really in the mood for it but my parent made me do it anyways. Wasn't really bad, just, driving circles around in our neighborhood. Umm, and then there was game night.

        Haven't been to one in a while. It was Lw, Jk, DrewN, and Ek, this time at Lw's house. We did Mario Party 8, played a full round and then did some minigames. Uhh, yeah, it was pretty intense not gonna lie. Got home at about 9:00 PM, stayed up 'till now (2:05 AM), and played a game of League with Dv and Ec about an hour ago.

        That's about it for now, still waiting for shit to arrive, and I mean everything. My buddy Ec got his SBAC scores in the mail recently, and, my school still hasn't even posted any major updates yet, and school started August 11th. The only thing they do send me is a library fine notice, stating that I still owe that $10 for that fucking Thoreau book my teacher didn't return yet (or maybe, ever will), heh. See ya.

Songs to Remember: I Just Wanna Dance - Tiffany

        Welcome one and all to another episode where I stay in the same spot and tap on my phone. Currently, I'm charging my phone and so I'm staying in the same spot and typing on my PC instead.

        My mom called my future driving tutor and apparently I'll be starting those lessons on the 16th. Probably, not yet confirmed, but, most likely. As for now, still grinding on Pokemon Go, my cousin's doing basic math problems on this starter quiz thing for his college I guess (and I mean basic, basic. I'd do it for him to speed up the process, but, I just don't want to, heh).

        In other news, the cast will be having a game night tomorrow at Lw's house. I'll be going if I can muster up the muscle movements to stand the fuck up from sitting down all day. And still, STILL, I have not found a name for the new series yet. No idea.

        Also have you noticed, that I haven't really been feeling these posts compared to usual ones. Like, episode ones. That's because these are different, like really different. More, lazy, relaxed, calm, compared to shit like, series premiers. Hoooly, those I write so much that my hand cramps, and I don't even technically "write" it, I type.

        Anyways, just had a 3 hour-long meme session with my buddies on the Discord chat. I decided to take things likely for once, that shit ain't personal, and that, for the most part, we're all just really joking on there. So, I went back on, and, it was nice being back. It's currently 2:13 AM, so, shit lasted for a long time. Meanwhile, I was playing Pokemon Go, gaining 3 levels, from level 16 to 19 currently (almost 20) with a lucky egg + evolution feast. And, yeah, that was about it. See ya.

        Alright, well besides going to 7/11 for a free slurpee, I essentially spent the whole day playing Pokemon Go, in this exact spot.

        My mom attempted to make a phone call to my future driving tutor but she didn't pick up. So, I can expect to be doing those lessons sooner or later. As for now, I'ma be playing Pokemon Go, and, waiting for my cosplay materials to arrive.

        It's been pretty calm, nothing too bad. Staying up 'till 2:00 AM (well now, a bit later due to my new access to anywhere I want in Pokemon Go since the servers are playable at night) and waking up at 11:00 AM each day. Still have no idea when senior portraits are, there's like, nothing on the school website. I know when picture day is, but not senior portraits day(s).

        Nothing really else going on as of the moment. I'll see you tomorrow.

Songs to Remember: Pokemon GS (Johto) Pokerap

        So today was full of adventures, more specifically, Pokemon Go and Get Hit by Traffic. And fortunately, no I did not get hit by traffic.

        I made a few rounds around the neighborhood today and by that I mean to one Pokestop a few neighborhoods down, and one attempt at going to a whole row of Pokestops at my nearest library. Yeah I sorta just turned back around, partially because I was embarassed that people would see me playing fucking Pokemon Go, and partially because there was a shit-ton of traffic, like, speeding cars. Most of the neighborhood is like, straight streets, and not that much "traffic," therefore there are those speedsters who gotta go fast and speed through. I'm afraid to get hit by those guys, heh.

        However, I did see some people who were also playing it (or, I think they were). There was also this girl who was at her house. I walked by and she said hi, I'm guessing towards me since there was nobody else around, and I said hi back. Pretty much the highlight of the day. As for sitting at home, I managed to tediously unlock and root my Nexus 5 phone, allowing me to use this fake GPS app and manipulate my location so I could go anywhere in Pokemon Go, sitting just right here.

        And to be honest, I don't really blame myself for doing this. Had there been more Pokestops or gyms near me so I don't have to travel through deadly-ass traffic (by walking, what the original intention of this game was, not fucking driving with a car), then I wouldn't have to "cheat." But right now. I'm the enjoying the fuck outta it, because I'm sure others with over 1000 CP Pokemon have already been having the time of their lives.

        And no, I'm not actually mad, I know it's just a game and that the hype will soon die, heh. Also, forgot to mention, the KDT cabinet and I did discuss the songs for next year's Lunar Show, the semi-final songs, not yet confirmed confirmed, but, wait no, they are confirmed. Umm, just the dance details still need to be finalized by all the "teachers." As for Skype, you know the usual. Aaand, my parents still have yet to assign me a driving tutor. I think they're waiting maybe next week or something, not sure.

        But I ain't sweating it, I shouldn't sweat it because driving should be easy, and, yeah, that's about it. For the rest of this week it's gonna be pretty much Pokemon Go-filled, next week, surprise. For now, it's 1:06 AM, I got an incense going, see ya.

Songs to Remember: Be Right There - Diplo & Sleepy Tom

        If I said I caught a lot of Pokemon today, I'd be lying. If I said I practiced EXO's "Monster" dance, I'd be lying. If I said I finished the template for my future cosplay, I'd also be lying.

        Not gonna lie though, I was tired today. It was around 5:00 PM or 6:00 PM and I returned to my natural state during that time: napping state. Otherwise, I'd do all those above things. Turns out that a 6-hour ride on the freeway and highway are not that great in terms of finding Pokemon. I did catch one Pikachu though, was pretty stoked about that.

        I actually wanna do a lot of things, like be a cool artist (graphic design, etc), play Pokemon Go, exercise, practice dances, get off my lazy ass, get stuff done for once. And what's the problem? Time? You ain't even started your professional driving lessons yet, Drew. Tired? Yeah I guess so, but you're only tired 'cause you stay up so fucking late (it's 11:18 PM right now). One way to start getting off your lazy ass is succumbing to the fucking Pokemon Go craze.

        And it's really simple. You walk, you're outside, you've been looking for a new game/rpg to sink your time into and here it is, many others are into it as well, and most importantly, you ain't sitting in the same exact spot for 95% of the day. So tomorrow, gonna get off my ass and walk. Today I gave myself a break, I just got back from LA in a 6-hour car ride, starting from waking up at 8:00 AM, so, that's a reasonable excuse.

        However, tomorrow, you better catch some nice-ass Pokemon. Oh yeah, speaking of, nice, the first episode of Qualidea Code was not, heh. It was pretty cliche, uhhh, I hate some of the characters, animation was meh to poor, soundtrack was alright, and plot, is just out the window. I'll wait until the 2nd episode and see where A-Pictures is going with the series, because right now I don't even think the anime's gonna be good enough for me to cosplay, heh.

        And also, the votes for songs have sorta been totalled up (totalled?). Not yet published, but totalled. It looks like TWICE's "Cheer Up," SNSD's "Lion Heart," Red Velvet's "Ice Cream Cake," BTS' "Fire," EXO's "Lucky One," Astro's "Hide and Seek," EXID's "L.I.E," Sistar's "I Like That," SNSD's "Run Devil Run," EXO's "Monster," BTS' "I Need You," and VIXX's "Chained Up" are the songs we're gonna be doing for Lunar Show 2017.

        Now it's not the final songs, it's just, the top 3's for each category (Male light, female light, male dark, female dark) with the most votes. So more than likely, they will be the songs. For now, tomorrow the cabinet, including me, will be debating on the top 5's for each, and uh, if they're possible to do or like, we need more group variety, etc. But that's for tomorrow.

        Right now, I need'a go to sleep. So, see ya. Also apologies for the random motivation shit, I just realized that there's a lot that I wanna do, and it's late, and I'm tired, and, one of my fellow KDT members wants to go to law school in which I find fairly challenging, but it's law study of intellectual rights so that's actually pretty cool and more plausible so. Anyways, see ya. heh.

Songs to Remember: HuaHin - csp

        Almost forgot to write something for tonight. It's kinda crazy how I yawn and feel tired, even though I just sit in this chair for 90% of the time.

        Alright so without any drama (because I don't feel like going in-depth on shit at this hour), my feed's been filled with pretty much nothing but the usual Facebook posts, and Pokemon Go posts. On Instagram, nothing but the usual Japanese shit, Facebook friends, school friends, mutual friends, and cosplay pics. And before last week, I barely even used Instagram. Now, I'm scrolling through the explore feed.

        As for everything else, it's pretty much whatever. My dad arrived today, umm, and apparently we're leaving tomorrow because I saw our hygiene supplies in the bathroom all cleaned up. Uhhh, tomorrow's gonna be pretty much either sleep, watching pre-loaded Mekakucity Actors on my phone, Pokemon Go, or, sleep. It's a 6-hour car ride, so. What else, what else.

        It's been a very quick stay here at my grandmother's house, heh. The week went by quicker than I thought it would. Hell, I brought down my PS4 and I didn't even bring it downstairs (and it is quite a hassle to plug the cables back). Aand that's about it, besides the usual. I'll see you tomorrow I guess.

EDIT: I'm not even fucking lying about the Pokemon Go shit on my feed, it's about 30% of it, most of it stemming from me being added to this local Pokemon Go group a fellow KDT alumni made, and I get to see all the posts people make in it.

Songs to Remember: Drip Drop (RapheM Instrumental) - Taemin

        Okay so I lied about the EXO "Monster" practice thing. And, I did forget to discuss something from the last post: AP scores.

        Yep, took 'em that long to get them out, July 5th (even though it's July 7th right now). Yeah I didn't, didn't really feel anything upon viewing them and shit. A 2 in AP Bio? Surprising, because that means I was close to getting a 3. A 4 in AP Psychology? Hooooweeee, that's pretty fucking nice. Too bad I won't be using that shit, but, it's nice to have. And I figured I got like a 4 or a 3 on it, I was like "I probably got a 4, no, 3, at least a 3." And whadya know, a 4.

        So there's that. As for today, just the same as yesterday. Things have been calm, relaxing, for now. My buddies on the Discord chat, I actually haven't really interacted with them for a while now. Both because of how I, me, feel about 'em, and, partly because I wanna spend a bit more time with my cousin. He's gonna be going to college soon, as in, a dorm. And with the college life, you know how it is, he probably won't have much time to interact with me. Hell, I probably won't have time to interact with him either.

        And with our future conflicting schedules, the slots for Skype calls or interaction (besides holidays and shit), are slim. Right now, just the Skype calls everyday, talking how we talk, discussing what we wanna discuss, memes, videos, pictures, whatever, will do. Speaking of whatever, people have been hyping up Pokemon Go a lot, I actually haven't been able to go outside because I don't wanna get mugged for my phone in these neighborhoods.

        Instead, I just used the 2 starting incense, and, that's about it. I'm hoping to be catching a lot more once my dad comes and drives my mom and I back home. That's a 6-hour trip, and a lot of moving, so, I'm planning to catch a fuckton of Pokemon, heh.

        As for cosplay, ordered my shit just, right now, after having my account blocked another time, delaying my order another, 4 days. Anyways, still just living in the moment, not worrying about the oncoming driving lessons and math packet I gotta do. It's 12:16 AM, see ya.

        Yep, I missed a day, and uhhh, there shouldn't be a reason why I forgot to post. I mean, what was I doing yesterday huh? Skyping, and... oh right, ant infestation.

        My cousins left their Arizona cans in the room, and, our grandmother's house has a continuous ant infestation. It's no problem as long as you keep shit packaged, refrigerated, not left out or opened. But, once there is an article or piece of sweetness left out, boom, a hoard and train arrives. Of ants. Luckily I thought of a quick solution: hairspray. It was in the bathroom which is right across from this room so, convenient.

         It's scented, my cousin commented on the smell before so it is noticeable. With that, I hoped it would mess with the ant trail pheromones a bit, and with the stickiness, if the ants were to step in the same spots I sprayed on, they'd be in for a sticky surprise. So, there was that. It was late at night, I noticed that there were a lot of ants climbing on my body (more than usual, at least, during the time I've spent here).

        Anyways, today was basically the same as yesterday (besides the ant infestation). Skyping, discussing cosplay ideas, Cosplay wishlist-ing, you know. The KDT chat was active today, in which people talked about Pokemon Go and the new NCT127 music video "Firetruck." I also got Photoshop installed so, whenever I want to start making some bootleg art, I can do so now with a more efficient program than GIMP.

        And with all that, I ordered the foam materials for my cosplay (for free of course), aaand, started learning EXO's "Monster." I still remember the beginning to chorus of EXO's "Overdose," but, that wasn't on the voting list for the 2017 Lunar Show songs. "Monster," however, is. Hopefully that gets picked, otherwise, nothing, heh.

        It's 11:26 PM, uhhh, oh. Okay so, since I got PhotoShop now, maybe I can work on the site title card to include the next series name, which, I still have yet to find. I don't think I think up of them, I gotta find them. As in, it just comes to me. "Hey, that would make a great name for the next series." Boom, there you go. Anyways, see ya.

Songs to Remember: I Just Wanna Dance - Tiffany

        Well here I am, it's 11:04 PM, fireworks keeping people awake, aaand my cousins have left the building. House.

        So that ends the Anime Expo 2016 adventures. I didn't go today actually, I mean I could've, my aunt woke my cousins and I up at 8:30 AM, so I had plenty of time to get ready. It's just that, it's 8:30 AM, and I'm going by myself, and I just woke up, and there's nothing to do there but look for deals.

        And yes, there was somebody famous that was at the con today, Dyrus tweeted out a picture of him and TSM WildTurtle. It was a nice incentive/ purpose for me to go, but it's not like a guarantee. I would probably have to search everywhere for one picture (which is not even a guarantee meetup). Plus, Lyft fees. $6 for a trip to and $6 for a trip back is not something I'd welcome anymore, considering I'm motivated for my next year's Anime Expo cosplay.

        That would be Ichiya Suzaku from the upcoming anime series "Qualidea Code," which is apparently premiering its 1st episode in 4 days, produced by A-Pictures, the same studio that made Sword Art Online and Fairy Tail. I'm actually not gonna make the clothes and all that, I'll be purchasing it, premade, on another site (with the gloves and such accessories, separately). As for the arm armor, that'll be attempted by me with foam.

        Now with that kind of hobby in mind, I gotta keep shit under control. Right now, I'll be here, in this room at my grandmother's house, for about 90% of the time for, the rest of this week. After that, I got driving lessons, and a fucking math packet to do (which I know I won't do 'till like a few nights before the start of school but still). I will be busy after this week.

        Instead of just relaxing, maybe I can do something to be productive. Remember last last last year? I think it was last last last year. That was when I tried to make bootleg mashups of K-Pop and EDM songs. Didn't turn out well after all this time, but it was a good experience. And yeah, that was the start of my audio splicing experience, so, props to me for that.

        I'm thinking of either earning as much money as I can for my cosplay through surveys, or, start fiddling around with Photoshop (I got a ton of experience with GIMP but I can't use it forever; gotta switch to Photoshop eventually) and make some art and shit, or both. All the while, Skyping with my cousin of course.

        Now that that's done and updated, here's my thoughts on the Anime Expo trek. It wasn't as magnificent as I had thought it would be... in some parts. The goods were, alright to say the least. The cosplays, yeah, some were okay, some were cool, I still only took one picture with a group of cosplayers. It was just, "okay" in that perspective for those things. However, the unexpected events and solo ventures were the highlight of it all. I got so many pictures with well-known people, I wasn't even expecting it. Did not cross my mind at all (okay, besides some like Mort3mer and LittleKuriboh and shit, but you get what I mean).

        That, and how I wasn't afraid to venture by myself. "Oh shit, I just got a tweet from blah blah, saying that they'll be at this location at blah time, I gotta go." That happened numerous times, and I was tired from it all. But damn, did I take initiative. The only reason I got those pictures was because of me, and, social media. And, a bit of stalking and chase for one of them.  Facebook friends were like "lucky" for some of my pictures from Anime Expo with well-known people. I'd say it was about 50% luck, 50% skill. 'Cause like, Jesus, maneuvering through hordes of humans, weaboo humans for that matter, and toughing out the soreness in my feet and legs were a huge feat if I do say so myself.

        I still, however, consider Fanime 2016 to be the most thrilling adventure I've had so far, coming from The Days series and the new series' pre-season, anyways. So uh, 11:45 PM, the KDT cabinet has put up the songs to vote for to be in next year's lunar show, uhh, cosplay prep, graphic design fiddling, see ya.

Songs to Remember: Razor Sharp - Pegboard Nerds & Tristan

        I just want to go to sleep and die. My legs, my waist, all are tired from walking, standing, specifically standing, and walking.

        So, first things first, schedule's out the window. I went with what worked best, which was social media. Most notably, Twitter and Instagram. I'll explain why in this next tale. I was not able to get a picture with LilyPichu and HotShotGG, although they were there, taking picures, pictures, but uh, security guard was like "Sorry, line's closed." Yep, could've gotten that picture had I gotten there a bit earlier.

        And also, Dyrus was at the convention as well. You know, the retired top-laner for TSM? My cousins and I were at this fashion show at the convention, the hosts being comedians, and uh, I was pretty low on battery, literally, was holding onto like 5%. I even ran out of my 1 Gig of 4G internet, so Twitter notifications were slow as shit. I was pretty bummed about not getting a picture with LilyPichu and HotShotGG, I was like "Man, I got nothing to post for Instagram." In the midst of about 6:20 PM, I got a Writer notification, it was a tweet from Dyrus, stating that he was going to be at the League Cosplay Gathering until 7:00 PM.

        I took things into my own hands and went over there by myself, yes, I walked all the way from the back of the convention, across the Staples Center and to the site, which was near the front entrance of the convention center itself. I stood there, hot, sweaty, tired, legs, waist, back straining, looking around for Dyrus. The gathering site was also near the bus-stop, so, there were lines of people of whom I thought were in line to take a picture with Dyrus. I spoted C9 LemonNation, I didn't really care too much since I already got a picture with him.

        As I was looking in his direction, I spot C9 Hai. There's me, walking up to him, he's talking to a friend or manager or something, I wait for them to finish their conversation and bam. "Excuse me, can I take a picture with you?" What was surprising was that there wasn't any people around LemonNation or Hai, they were just, there, in the midst of the League of Legends cosplay gathering, which was surprising. I was still determined to find Dyrus, I looked to the right, back, looked into the actual gathering spot to see if he was in the group, whether he was still in his Sans cosplay or what.

        I overhear someone say "Dyrus is over there" and I soon turned to looking to the left side of the site. I finally found his tall-ass, he was talking to some buddies of his, like, friends, talking about tomorrow's scheduling and breakfast and shit. I was standing there, got a bit closer, I looked like a fucking child waiting, heh, just like the Freddy plush I got. I didn't want to be rude and interrupt his conversation, so I waited. Again, I was surprised there was nobody crossing around him. But, once I was there, others noticed too and soon a mini-crowd formed. Dyrus' friend took initiative and announced "If anyone wants a picture with Dyrus, come here now, uhhh, the line starts here" and BAM, selects my spot to be the start of the line.

        I was the first for it. All my hard work of walking and searching in a fucking turtleneck, looking like Spongegar or caveman Spongebob, to finally find Dyrus and get that second picture for my Instagram. Holy shit. Jesus. I was just, I was just done after that. Went back to the fashion show, went out to eat Korean BBQ, and that ends Day 2. But before all this, there was the Persona cosplay gathering (which was pretty boring and consisted of only Persona cosplayers, and they started doing single-person pictures, so, I left), getting my cousin to meet this "Gigguk" YouTube guy (which apparently a lot of people came to meet because there was a crowd), uhh, expensive lunch, walking, and exhibit hall looking. My cousin got a RWBY scythe, I got that Five Nights At Freddy's Freddy plush, and a Kiznaiver shirt (which would cost more online, and is also sold out online as well).

        Things didn't really turn out the way I expected it to, didn't mean it was bad, just, different. Tomorrow, I'ma be camping out the CLG booth for my fucking photo because godamn, I want a picture for my efforts in keeping up with updates on people's Twitter feeds and Instagram. Then, it'll be just exhibit hall shopping, aaand artist alley. Thank goodness the meetup at the CLG booth is at 12 PM. Anyways, see ya. Oh and by the way, it's 12:35 AM.

        To be honest there was a lot of shit that happened today, and a lot of stuff that didn't. More specifically, the Cosplay Gatherings.

        So my cousins and I participated in the opening of the convention, where everybody was all in a large crowd, waiting right before the steps to the exhibit hall. There was a drum solo, then people proceedee first  through the escalators, and then finally us through the stairs, and boy, if you didn't run fast enough, you would've gotten trampled. Holy.

        We were with my older cousin, who was with his friend (and other friend). We went like, round and round the exhibit hall for about, 50% of the day. The other parts was, 25% wait in line, 10% relax, 5% driving time and parking, 5% other. I did meet some people, whom I got really really excited for or even, didn't expect meeting. Those included: Mortemer, members of Cloud 9 for League of Legends, LittleKuriboh, and some others. Especially, C9. Like, we were going down the escalators to the main place of the convention where I saw them. Like, I thought it was just people who looked like C9 members and were Cosplaying them. However, once I got a good look at C9 Balls, I was like "Boy, nobody can replicate his height, this the real C9."

        And I proceeded to get a picture with them (and Mortemer), which is all documented on my Instagram. No sight of LilyPichu, but, she'll hopefully be at the CLG booth tomorrow with HotShotGG, where I can get another picture with a person who probably makes more than I ever will, heh.

        Another one of the highlights was probably when some dude asked to take a picture of me due to my Cosplay. I was pretty surprised (and like, delighted) for somebody to ask me for a Cosplay picture. Anyways, that was literally a one-time thing, if I want more of that attention, I gotta up my Cosplay game, which is set for next year.

        We watched some finalists go head to head in Tekken, we played Apples to Apples (where "Niggers" and "Terrorist Attacks" were the trunp cards to the game), and had some pretty expensive lunch, consisting of rice balls and a blueberry slushy. Overall, hyphy, but could've been much better. Also I now realize that going to each cosplay gathering is almost impossible because of how you gotta walk out of the convention, and to places kilometers away. Then, whenever you wanna get INTO the convention, they gotta do a bag check (of which they stopped doing because they soon realized it was impractical).

        Tomorrow is gonna be a lot of events, I'ma have to split for some because there are some, of which I want to go. Really want to go. And in the meantime, buy. As in, I bought literally nothing today but food, aka lunch. There was sorta nothing I wanted. Like I kinda wanted, but didn't really want until.now, where I thought about it. So uh, yeah. I was really tired after getting back to our grandmother's house, I even decided that I didn't want to Cosplay tomorrow because of the work (and holy fuck the heat before they turned on the AC). That was before this one girl, the one who recognized my Cosplay at Fanime, the one I contemplated sending a friend request to, commented on my Mortemer selfie, complimenting my Cosplay and Persona 5 hype.

        Now with that support, I did change my mind on Cosplaying. And if course, there's going to be a Persona Cosplay Gathering tomorrow, can't miss that. Alrighty, that it for now, it's 12:00 AM, we're leaving tomorrow at 11:00 AM -ish, see ya.
