Yes, I'm still alive people. lD Boo all you want, but I'm back anyways~ and I haven't done much. :/ But i do have a small story for you.

I hope everyone had a good new years? Mine consisted of video games, lots of screaming, drawing, food, and fire. Yes Fire. My most entertaining story of the year was the first one of the year XD You guys know those floating lanterns, right? (here's what they're like: [link] , [link] ) You light 'em up with fire, then let them float peacefully into the sky until they're up so high your eyes can no longer catch a glimpse of them...They're a sight to see for sure. So simple yet amazing. Anyways, I stayed with a group of my friends for New Years this last/this year, and I brought two of them for all of us to send off into the starry heavens, but I wondered how they would fly since it was such a windy night, and I'd never lit them before. So I had no idea what to expect.

Well...the friend's house we were all hanging out in had lots of trees in his backyard...You can only guess where this is going.
We went outside at midnight to light the first lantern. Now lemme tell you something special about these lanterns, traditionally, when you light them up to send them away, you usually write your new years wish on them. We didn't write on them, so instead one of my friends just put all of his worries and bad luck from the previous year onto that first lanturn. I, being too busy worrying about making sure the lantern didnt' burn up before it flew, neglected to mention that any wishes and such should probably wait til the second lantern since I didn't know what was going to happen. And so, we let it go. Unfortunatly, I hadn't let it stay low to the ground long enough for it to be able to lift off properly, so it floated about 5ft off the ground after we let it go. Then i realized I'd let it go in the wrong area of my friend's backyard.

We all quickly tried to get the lantern back so that we could let it go father out into the field, but a gust of wind came and before we knew it, it was caught on the branch of my friend's ginko tree. We all freaked out and had to wait for it to fall a bit before we could try to get it down. Luckily, it fell down a few branches and :iconnatahankataka: and another friend of mine were able to get it down without catching the tree on fire. Tearing it off the tree and throwing it to the ground to be violently stomped on, the remaining fire, my other friend walked around with til it went out. >>;

Knowing he first would probably fail, I was glad I'd brought a second, so we could launch it in it's proper place and make sure it got enough helium in it before letting it lift off again. the second one launched smoothly and swiftly into the air. A few strong gusts of wind caught it and it swung gently back and forth as the wind carried it off into the starry night sky...Finally, we'd gotten to see a lantern fly, it really was amazing to watch. We all watched it until it disappeared completely into the sky, then cheered for the new year. XD

Later that night my buddy that had let us come to his house for the party told me about how he'd put all his wishes for a good new year, and all of his terrible problems of the past one, into that first lantern. ^^; He said he felt so happy when the lantern started to take off and thought 'There goes all my problems...drifting away..' then the lantern had turned course straight for his tree, causing the panic as everyone tried to get it down before it burned the tree up, then it being torn up and thrown to the ground...He thought to myself "...the problems are still here...; A ; " He' all good now though, don't worry guys

Anyways, that's my little story for New Years I figured I had to share with everyone. XD It was halarious, and a good and bad way to start the New Year. So then, how was your new years? Is it going well thus far? I'd like to know! :D

Love Kingdom Hearts series, Legends of Zelda, Pokemon, Sonic, Prince of Tennis, and much much more. Love drawing in japanese anime style, playing anime songs on piano by ear (cuz I suck at reading notes)and hanging out with friends online. I'm part Japanese, and slowly learning the Japanese language, bored often, not many real friends, gone to 2 animecons thus far and hope to go to many MANY more. Really, REALLY wish the anime world was real cuz I'd go to it first chance I got. No looking back. all in all, I'm a crazy Otaku with no life, money, or job. <_<;

Robots have souls, ghosts are real, and things that people don't believe in are true. Why must we deny things just to be in the crowd?
