Everybody Needs Somebody

By Love Psychedelico. Just an awesome song! The singer says she was mainly influenced by Janis Joplin, Sheryl Crow, and Bob Dylan. She also was born in California. :D It's mostly in English, even though it's a Japanese band.

I wrote more on my characters' personalities. I didn't think it would take me this long, but it's fun to actually put down their personalities that I've been slowly developing. Some still need to be in the story a bit more in order to get a better feel of it. So, there won't be much on them yet. XD I made it to Max Leiche in my 5th chapter. He's a fun character, which you'll read more about when I post it. I also posted 3 pics. One of the zigzag bridge and 2 of the bamboo grove at the Morikami. If you don't have my deviantART: http://rcmacdonald.deviantart.com/ I think these actually came out pretty well. :P

Sebastian's especially good at sweets. :P Oddly, he told the gardener to get some iris seeds, and they blossomed that night. O.O Ciel is usually with a cane. He's president of his family's company. (The Phantom.) Which, is England's best toy company. Elizabeth or Lizi visits him, and she's his fiancee. She's creepy, and tries to decorate the mansion with 'girly' stuff. (Ribbons, hearts, flowers, etc.) She even tries to dress everyone up 'cutely'. He's not interested in her, but he's forced into it. Another thing Sebatian's good at is dancing. (Does this guy have any faults?) So, he teaches Ciel, since he has to dance with her later. Also, Sebastian gives him tips on how to be a gentleman. The ring Ciel wears has been passed down from generation to generation. It also seems to have some weird power where every night he can hear his predecessors' screams since it 'witnessed' their deaths. O.O Lizi accidentally breaks it, and he goes nuts. After some calming down he throws it out the window. Later, the butler gives it back to him fully intact. O.O Apparently, he's also good with playing the violin. Next, Ciel's kidnapped by the Italian mafia. His butler beats up (and eventually kills) the boss' hitmen. Ciel seems a bit mysterious too. (Ciel and Sebastian are in the pic above.)

Yesterday night was fun. We had the seder for Tu B'Shevat. (Seder lit. means 'order'. There's a certain order that the meal has to go. Each thing has a symbolism.) I was so full of fruit at the end, it was crazy! There was a nut mix, kiwis, 2 types of oranges, dried cherries, mango, apples, pears, Fig Newtons, dates, strawberries, raspberries, avacadoes, pistachios, apricots, olives, nectarines, and some others I can't remember. I pretty much had everything but the avacadoes. We also had to drink grape juice or wine 4 times. Fruit is like candy to me, so it was awesome! :D
