*Thanks, Febby, for letting me know that Myojo scan #5 wasn't working. Tried fixing the problem but for some reason, it decided not to upld. -_- Don't know why. Will look into the problem further. Gomenasai ne~ (bows)*

Hey everyone! I'm back here again, yet with more new 08.02 scans of Myojo & Poporo. Now, I don't have much time on this comp (I'm currently at the univ. library and just finished scanning these) as the university library will close today at 5pm. Plus, they'll also close as of Dec. 22 - 27 for winter break. Soooo...needless to say, I'll be on & off uplg new scans along the Xmas break (if any new ones come about)

So...without further ado, here are the 08.02 Myojo & Poporo mags...enjoy & Merry Xmas everyone!! XDDD (tell me what you think of'em all) I didn't put the tags on them as it's my treat to y'all. Since I was WAY excited about these scans, didn't have time to do them, nor care. It's ok, really. Whenever I think about it, it's sort-of humbug to do them (on my part) since it's every single page. -_- And I don't like putting a bar at the bottom of the pages like some other people do with theirs...just my own preference; that's all.

In any case, like these scans too from both mags. Sooo kawaii and funny at the same time! *squeeeeee*

You know what? I don’t even know anymore. I got myself a flu shot several weeks ago, been sick twice back-to-back, and now it looks like I’m sick…again. -_- Dammnit…how many times am I gonna get sick? This is like my 3rd time in a row this month (or part of Nov. too). No matter how many times I washed my hands, stayed away from my daughter or hubby (when they were sick), or drank orange juice and hydrated myself with liquids, it didn’t work. I’m seriously NOT lookin’ forward to going through another ‘bout of sickness. I don’t know if I can take this anymore either.

My head feels like it’s about to explode, I have a lump in my throat that won’t go away and it hurts like heck to even swallow. I have a hard time drinking liquids too because my throat was so sore with the lump. This winter cold is just killing me this year. I think this was THE worst in history for me in getting sick (compared to all the other years). I’ve never been this sick before in a looooong, long time. (since I was in hs or elem. school)

Gawd, I need some Takki stuff (or goods…whichever at this point…lol) to keep me alive (and happy) while I shall spend almost the rest of my winter days in bed recovering from illness. Right now, I’ve been nothing but glum, gloomy, and slightly at a depressed-state. lol -_-

And of all times too for this to happen.

I don’t think I’ve said it here on my blog but, I have a 2-wk vacation trip in December (leave Dec.28) coming up to visit family, relatives & friends in Hawaii (Oahu). Sunny Hawaii!!!! *whooohoooo!* And I have to go being sick like this? Man, this SUCKS! -_- Now being sick again, I don’t have a ferver in going on my trip anymore. I was so excited; now I’m not. All because this stupid cold had to take it away. *sigh* What in da HELL did I do to deserve this. (God, it hurts to swallow…) I mean, it’s so bad that I really wouldn’t wish this even on my enemy-list; honest. Even my neck hurts whenever I lean back. (muscles feel achy)

Of course, it would help if I ate. But, I just don’t feel like eating much. I had 2 spam musubi’s for dinner, but that’s about all I ate tonight (Sat., Dec.15).

Well, now it’s Dec.19…and FINALLY I’m seeing a light at the end of the tunnel with this thing. *whew* Goodness! For a minute there, I swore I thought I’d have to go to Hawaii with this dang lump in my throat. Only today, did the soreness and lump, kinda-sorta went away.

Now, I know I’m not out of the woods yet, and I know I still need to keep my throat hydrated. Maybe someone above (or someone…maybe Takki :P) is telling me something. Maybe I just need to keep myself healthier, continue to hydrate myself with liquids, eat right, and get plenty of restful sleep. -_- I think this was a ‘wakeup call’ for my health. God knows I need it too in the next coming week, as I leave next week Friday. Yikes! It’s pretty soon and I still have LOTS more to do yet. (in terms of getting ‘last minute travel items’, etc.)

And this isn’t even including finishing our Xmas shopping yet either. LOL :P This year was our first time we waited until the last minute to do Xmas shopping. Usually, I’m always early. (finished by middle or latter part of Nov.) Because we’ve all been sick over the past two months, it has taken me thisclose to almost being Xmas and we’re still not done yet. (sort-of; almost done)

And what in da heck do you buy fathers (grandfathers)? lol :P They’ve almost got everything. Not to mention, men (to me anyway), I find, are almost the hardest to buy for. Well, no…I take that back. lol My mother and mother-in-law is getting harder and harder to buy for every year because they’re all retired from work. LOL My mother no longer wears fancy clothes or business-wear anymore, she hardly buys jewelry or even wears perfume. (she’s also allergic) Soooo…what to do, what to do. lol Then comes the dilemma of buying for my hubby. :P And with him, I wiiiished I could buy him more electronics stuff. (you know how guys are, right?) Gotta have that Ipod, fancy cellphone jazz (with all the ‘bells n’whistles’ on them), new PS3 gaming console or the new Nintendo Wii, 50’ or 60’ HDTV flat-screen hooked up to a slammin’ stereo system from Bose, Discovery Channel or History Channel DVD sets, etc. etc. Boy, oh boy…all this I WISHED I could buy but got no monies for. LOL :P Say, if I won the California lottery, mayyyybe then I could? hahahahaha Yeahhhh riiiiiight. I’d end up buying all that for myself FIRST before buying these items for HIM. lolol

Oh…and need I mention I have to include buying myself 1) an Olympus digital camera (because my ‘old’ dinosaur of-a-camera broke) and 2) a new laptop w/Internet WiFi access built in with LOADS of memory.

Oh…and one more thing…

I need him to get me a new wedding ring/band because I lost my 1st one. *yikes!* I lost it several months ago somewhere at a public library outside the parking lot. (he already knew about it the day I lost it) I know. I never thought I’d be THAT irresponsible in losing such a precious thing like a wedding ring, but I did. -_- Dame dame yo. That day both our hearts were so broken, I even cried. I’ve never seen him so depressed and glum before too. (poor thing) It was like, man…if there ever was Dr.Phil or someone like Oprah Winfrey who could get a dying, needing married couple a Xmas present of their lives, this is IT this year. (a beautiful, new diamond/Platinum wedding ring)

I think what’s saving me this year is the fact that my mother has suggested I could take my great grandmother’s diamond she’s kept for me. (now that she’s in a nursing home and gave all her jewelry to my mother for keeps to pass down) After I shared with my mother my story, she told me about my grandma’s diamond ring. I’m not sure how many carats it is. But, nonetheless, it IS a diamond. Wow. I felt so touched by her kindness (both my grandma & mother) and I nearly cried. It was like I had another ‘something’ that saved me again somehow. Maybe my ancestors are watching over us, I dunno. All I know is, when I arrive in Hawaii soon, my mother was gonna give the diamond to me and all 3 of us (my mother, hubby and myself) will go looking around a jewelry shop for a wedding band to reset this diamond on. *tears of joy*

Gosh, now that I’ve been without a wedding ring for so long, it’ll feel sort-of ‘weird’ to have something on that finger again. lol Hey, it feels real funny without a wedding band, esp. since I used to frequent the university library a lot. lol The guys there pro’lly thought I was ‘single’. LOL :P (little did they know…) We’ll see though. Hopefully, a jewelry shop will give us a good deal considering it’s Xmas or it’ll be New Year’s by the time we arrive. :P We’ll see…we’ll see… ^_^

Well, speaking of electronics, my mother FINALLY got me a USB portable external harddrive by Iomega from CompUSA. The store is finally closing (will shut down) and they’re having close-end deals on everything in the store. They just want to dump their entire stock on everything. Naturally, I asked if she could pick one up for me since I needed it so badly whenever I go to the univ. library or college library to use the comps there. Thank goodness, I got one now. *yaaaaaay* My goodness, now I finally am able to bring it with me in my purse and hopefully be able to use it wherever I go. *hopes* She asked if I had 300 mhz worth of memory on our home comp (harddrive) in order to operate it. Whyy?? O_O I hope I don’t need to install any software in order to use it…so humbug. lol Irregardless, at least I got one. (Thank YOU, Mom!)

Anyway, to shorten this entry (and since the univ. library will close as of Dec. 22 – 27 for winter break and we leave for Hawaii Friday, Dec. 28), I’m gonna wish everyone already…

A VERY Merry Christmas to you all & have a BLAST of a Happy New Year!!!!

By the way, we also call it ‘Hawaiian-style’:

MELE KALIKIMAKA A ME HAU’OLI MAKAHIKI HOU!!!!

Don’t worry…I’m gonna TRY posting stuff along the way (even while I’m in Hawaii…hehe~) And btw, I have to leave a ‘little something’ for everyone who’ve mayyyybe never been to Hawaii before.

(actually, doesn't this ad also look somewhat like Malaysia or Singapore too? lol)
Just think…pretty soon…I’ll be in ‘heaven’, sipping on Mai-Tai’s or a tropical drink, on the beach, getting a slight suntan, lounging around doing nothing but enjoying the sun’s rays and smelling the wonderful tropical breeze we call ‘paradise’, Hawaiian-style. *shaka sign* (sorry I cut off Tsubasa below but, couldn't find the pic from this Popolo issue and I was too lazy to look back for it...lol :P)
