By One Draft. Still an awesome song! I caught up on a lot of things and did some cleaning, it tired me out. Printed off a copy of the 9th chapter of Alliance. Since, sometimes you can see more errors in a hard copy. I'll edit that, and then I will post it either tomorrow or the next day.
I wrote an email to our Hadassah president about quitting the board. I'm a little nervous to see what she replies with.I tried to not get her upset, but at the same time get my point across. I hated to do it so close to the next Exec meeting, but I needed to. I told her I won't be attending it either. I still want to be a member, because I think it's an awesome organization! Hopefully, she'll understand. Hey, maybe they'll be a better person for the job and maybe they'll pay attention to that person, if we really need a secretary. I still feel the group isn't going to last very long now. What with possibly 2 officers off the board. The only other official board member left is the treasurer. Which is a very important job, but she can't be on it alone. We'll see what happens.
I also wrote back to 2 of my penpals. This time I tried to add a lot more Japanese. It took a little longer than normal, because I was trying to figure out what I should say. I think I did ok. I tried to be very polite in it. They'll probably tell me if it's not right.
Also, I watched a show called Asa Ichi on TV Japan, again. I'm starting to really like it for some reason. This time, most of it was tips on cooking things in the microwave. One was about this guy who freezes his rice at the beginning of a week so he doesn't have to make it the rest of the time. They showed the best way to freeze it and defrost it. As soon as it's cooked, wrap it tightly immediately in plastic, then put in freezer. When you want to defrost it, wrap a damp towel around the plastic and put in microwave. It supposedly keeps its texture and tastes better this way. I'll have to try that.Next, was how to make apple jam in the microwave. Put diced apple, sugar, and lemon juice in a bowl and put in microwave. Mix the mixture, and she adds some white wine to it, and calls it 'adult' jam that way. But, she said you don't have to add the wine. You can even make things like a soufflé. It was kind of cool. So watching this combined with emailing my penpals, I considered my Japanese for the day.
I decided to not color my drawing. I think it will mess it up, plus I think it gives a different feel.I'll scan it and post it today or tomorrow.
By One Draft. It's also one of the ending songs for Gintama. I love this one! Makes you feel good. It's the 3rd day of Passover! I woke up late, because I felt a bit nauseous. That's the problem with this holiday. The food seems very filling, but it doesn't last long. I had just been very hungry, and when I get that way, I feel sick. I should have had more before going to bed. Today, I did a lot of cleaning and some cooking.
I had some Passover noodles with seasonings and cheese. They're weird, but good. When it's supposedly 'done', it gets slimy on the outside, but the middle is as hard as a rock. The more you cook it, the more the outside gets soggy and the inside becomes softer but still tough. After cooking it, there was a thick layer of noodles that stuck to the bottom. It was like cement and took forever to clean. That part was rather disgusting.
Next, I made a Passover chocolate cake. The whole house smells like chocolate now! It puffs up a bit, and when you take it out and let it sit for a bit, it kind of collapses on itself. I also frosted it with chocolate frosting. It looks like brownies now. Can't wait to try it tonight!
Tonight, since I'm only cooking for myself, I'm thinking of making matzah brei and a salad. Matzah brei is like scrambled eggs with bits of matzah in it. You can add whatever else you want. We usually put salt, dried onions, and garlic in. It tastes really good! The salad would just be the one from our last seder. It's good too, but she made so much of it and left it for us, so we have to try and eat it before it goes bad.
I was looking at my DA messages, which seemed normal. I thought it was cool and funny they let people give out Llama badges to everyone. I didn't notice anything odd until I commented back on something. They had changed everyone's avatars to Twilight and Lady Gaga themes. Not only that, they changed our signatures too. That's what I really hate about April Fool's on there, I truly thought someone had hacked into my account! Not funny to me! It wasn't also the fact that I hate Twilight either, just the thought right away of it changing.
On TinierMe, they made everyone shrink or made them into giants. I shrunk. My pet was bigger than me and loomed over me.It was a bit freaky. (But, not as bad as what DA pulled.) The giant avatars were even scarier! The only bad part about your avatar shrinking, is you can't read what people are saying when you're on chat, because the font is smaller too.
I don't like what Gaia's event is at the moment. The event is basically lots of 'glitches' throughout the site. I thought my computer was acting up. They said in the 'event' you could claim your prize. I did, but once you try to equip it, it gives you an error message. Also, the background is messed up on the site. They 'jokingly' said that they're trying to fix these 'glitches' at the moment. Also, while we're waiting, we should try to fix it ourselves with their tips. Which were also bogus. Couldn't all these sites come up with something actually funny?!
