A person should want to live, if only out of curiosity.

Hi! This is another Yiddish proverb. I feel a lot better today! I managed to get up early like I wanted to. There's only one thing that looks a little disturbing and that's the really nasty deep bruise on my right forearm. It's all dark green, and kind of hurts. I must have tried to brace myself when I hit my head and managed to hit my arm too.

I read more of Naruto. Is it just me or does Neji's seal on his forehead look different than the anime? I thought in the anime it was like an x, but in the manga it looks like the x is on it's side kind of like a plus with funky things coming off of it. I loved when Naruto fought Neji. Especially when he came though the ground at the end there. I'm glad they made Neji change his attitude towards life and people, he's much better to deal with after that. It's interesting that Naruto won against Neji. So, technically he really is a Chuunin. I guess because the village was attacked afterwards. It still isn't very fair to him. Shikamaru is always just awesome! I love him in both the manga and anime now. He acts almost care free, and is extremely smart. He was tricked into taking an IQ test by Asuma. He scored a 200! He doesn't want to be known as being smart, and thinks everything is 'troublesome', so Asuma told him everything is like the game of Shoji or Chess. This gets him to be somewhat motivated, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to do anything. I just realized the mangaka that created Naruto has been doing it for 10 years now! And it only gets better over time! At least that's what I think. ^_^"

I did more of my Japanese. This time I was trying to find definitions to all the verb forms. That took a while. They're I think the most complicated part of the language. Also, I looked more at sentence structure. I have to keep in mind they use Subject, Object, and Verb. English, it's Subject, Verb, Object.

My therapist told me to read a chapter in the book I know isn't working for me. I thought, hmmm... maybe this chapter is for me since she suggested it and I thought she understood my situation more. I read it, and it's all the things I know about already, nothing new to work on. So, I came to a conclusion, I'm going to stop therapy for now. What's the point in wasting time and money on something that's not working? So, I might go back to it some other time, but it will be a long time. I cancelled the appointment for this Wednesday online and told her why. Now, the only person I'll have to see there is my new psychiatrist, when they are there in August. Oh, and today is my last day on Effexor! So, starting tomorrow I'll go down to taking 1 pill twice a day. So, nice! :P

The heat for the week looks like it's going to be excruciating. Today, it's supposed to get up to almost 90. I was seeing temperatures in the mid to upper 90's for the rest of the week. Like, 97 as the highest. I feel like we're going to fry! o_0 Tasha our cat was overheating today, so we put her in a bathtub with cool water. She normally loves water, but she struggled a bit at the beginning. After a while she calmed down and sat for a bit in the water. After that she threw herself out of it and towards the door. It was kind of comedic. I grabbed her and we dried her a bit so she wasn't dripping everywhere, and let her out. She's been licking her fur since, but you can tell she's a lot happier now. ;P

I watched more of Nabari no Ou. They went to the ninja village of Koga. The whole village is like a university. Juuji kind of looks familiar, like someone from Bleach. I don't watch Bleach, but I think I saw her on something for it. She's a funny character too. Saying stuff like don't treat me like a child! Shijima resembles the person who talks to Miharu inside his head. She must be related, and that's what Miharu was thinking too. Kinjutsu is kind of cool being a healing scroll. It's no wonder everyone wants it.

On Gintama one of the episodes was about not being able to sleep. Kagura was awesome in this! She said things like what is the meaning of sleep? Do we go crazy if we don't? What's the meaning of the universe? And of course, I can't sleep, Gintoki do something! She switches futons with her, makes her go out for exercise, gives her lots of food, but nothing works. Finally she said I'll just listen to the radio. It was a story that seemed touching, and then at the end down right creepy. Of course this put her to sleep, but Gintoki couldn't sleep after that. The next episode was about Kyuubei's Birthday party. Since Kyuubei is going to be the head of her family soon, they have really rich people show up and 'commoners' are usually not invited. Gintoki and his friends decided to do things like play the game of Life. The one guy who is always down on his luck in real life actually wins the game. (Madao does, if you're curious. Madao actually means like loser in English.) :P Gintoki and his friends start to say they are the 'Birthday Fighters'. They fight to make it a real certified Birthday. Shinpachi thinks everyone is ruining the party, when in reality he is because of all the shouting and trying to stop things. Tojo actually invited Kyuubei's friends to get rid of these rich people. Kyuubei says later that it was the best birthday she's had.

I played Wizard defense on Flash Ninja Clan. It was actually kind of hard. I couldn't really figure it out, so I stopped playing it. I drew a bit today too! It seems I always draw animals really small. So, I still have to work on proportion and anatomy. I drew a girl, who looked like she just woke up with messed up hair.
