One Year Anniversary @ MindSay 
anniversary
Fun was had, as I'm sure you could imagine. After I'd met her at the train station (running a little late, due to speed restrictions, caused by the oh-so-hot weather), we made our way to the bowling alley. On the way there, we walked past a bloke, who said something along the lines of "You talk a lot, dontcha?"..I think it was aimed at me, cos I was obviously chatting with Mena, but to be honest I didn't exactly hear what was said, so I disregarded it.
As I'm sure you could imagine, when at the bowling alley, we played a few games of bowling. If you didn't..you may as well give up here, because it doesn't anymore obvious than that :P I'd booked for an hour, and that's what we got. In the past, I knew that your "prepaid limit", as it's called on the scorecard telly thing, ended at the end of that game. Well, we were halfway through our fourth, and it cut us off, so despite me winning it (at that moment in time anyway), we called it a draw. Of the other three games, I won the first and second game, and Mena won the third. The first game was pretty low scoring (it took Mena two and a half turns to actually knock any pins over, though in fairness I wasn't much better), so for the second, third and fourth games, we had the barriers up ^_^
Despite this, Mena still found it possible to play a gutter ball, which I thought was practically impossible, at least, I did prior to yesterday. What happened was..as she went to bowl the ball, it slipped/dropped out of her hand, and rolled on it's merry little way down to the pins, bouncing off the barriers once or twice. As it got to the pins, it took another bounce off of a barrier, and then rolled parallel to the pins, and into the rear of the gutter, thus hitting a grand total of ZERO. We both found it hilarious, and it was probably to Mena's benefit that we were the only ones bowling at the time this occured. Whether any of the staff saw it though..I dunno. Regardless, it was funny, and one of those things where, no matter how hard you try, you'll probably never do it again.
(Just to note: My right arm now hurts a lot, in various places. This is obviously because I suck at bowling. Places of note are my thumb, my wrist [a little], and near my elbow. I actually think my thumb's got a bit swollen, and might bruise a tad.)
Well, anyways, moving on. After we'd finished, we had to brave the heat again to make our merry way back home, so I could give Mena her present and card. I feel rather outdone to be honest, because even though I managed to find a card which actually said "Girlfriend" as well as "Anniversary", Mena bought me a Forever Friends one which has glitter on it. It's now my promise to the world that, next year, for our 2 Year anniversary, I have to get a better one. But probably not glittery. I'd just get that everywhere.
I'm gonna hotlink pictures from H Samuel's website, just so show you what we bought each other, so if they disappear, it's not me who's done it ^_^
Firstly, here's the necklace I bought Mena:
It's a White Gold pendant and chain, and the stones on the ribbony bit in the middle are Cubic Zirconium, apparently. It's smaller than it looks though, and the actual heart is rather thin. Still, it is nice, and Mena loved it, so..I'm happy with my choice there. AND(!!!), I made the choice all by myself. Well..I asked Sally, a friend of mine (not my dog), what she thought of it, but I'd seen it on the website before asking.
And below is the ring that Mena bought me (which I'm also currently wearing ^_^):
As you can probably gather from the picture, the ring's Titanium :P There's some satin as well, somewhere. Least that's what the item description says. I had to choose this as well, which kinda took the element of surprise away (I didn't tell Mena what I'd bought her, you see..well, I did say it was a white gold necklace with a pendant, so I suppose I did), but regardless, it was still nice to see it. Fits like a charm as well, which can't be bad. And, as I said earlier, I got outdone by the card :P
After that, we snuggled up in bed for a bit, which was a mistake because of the weather. On the bed might not have been so bad..but in it..definately a no-no. Kids, bear that in mind. If you ever want to cuddle up in bed on a hot day, DON'T!
Moving on, we didn't do an awful lot else. As I said previously, we spent an hour at the bowling alley, if not a bit longer, and must've had about half an hour's worth of wandering from the train station to the bowling alley, and then from the bowling alley back home. So, I made us some dinner (crumpets and crisp sandwiches..yummy! :D), and we cuddled up in the living room to watch The Ring Two. We would've watched it in my room, but it was quicker to just pop the telly on downstairs and watch it there :P
And that was pretty much it. Mena's train home was delayed, though I don't know why. Speed restrictions were still in place, but there was a train that was heading to London Kings Cross which hadn't arrived yet, and it was due in at 12:46pm that afternoon. It was still on the departures board when we arrived there at 5:50pm, so whether it was a technical error or whether the train was actually late in arriving, I don't know.
The final point of note is, whilst we were at the train station, we were cuddled up and chatting, just waiting for time to pass, when some bloke in uniform, who I can only assume was in the Army, walked behind us back to his car, and said "Get a room, why don't ya?"
How. Fucking. Rude. Mena made a snide comment about the fact that he probably wasn't getting any, unless he was gay, so I had to remind her that she was on about the Navy stereotype, and not the Army one :P Under our breaths, obviously. His car wasn't that far away, and to be honest I could've done without the violence :P Still, it was very rude, especially as all we were doing was cuddling up. Not like the kinda 16-year-olds you'd probably find pushed up in a corner of a bus-stop basically trying to fuck each other and not caring who knew it. Bastard.
OK, I'm done. I'll focus on my personal life some more tomorrow, no doubt. I gots a job application to talk about, yay :D
Till then

Just so I can get it out of the way, expect more news regarding Project LS.Com next week. I've been hunting through a few free website hosting companies for a temporary host, and it looks like it's a threeway between Freewebs, Lycos Tripod and Yahoo Geocities. I'll probably also be using .tk to create a domain name, which'll obviously look better than the ones you usually get. Still, more news next week.
Moving on, tomorrow is the one year anniversary, and the date of the year because of such, though I will probably end up popping into town early to pick up an application form for TK Maxx, even though my confidence on actually leaving Game is slowly waning away. We'll see though. I'm still keeping quiet on our plans for the day, at least until tomorrow :P Sowwy.
I read in aostrow 's blog the other day that some Top Blogs are put there with at 4 votes, some days, so I might end up conducting an experiment sometime in the future. Basically, I'll probably write a blog full of nonsensical bullshite, and then ask everybody who views the blog to nominate it, even if you didn't like it. I'm not going to lie, this is another plan in my quest to hit the top blog page, even if it is at number 6, but come on. It'd be great :D So yeah, do that for me, pweese?
Moving back to today, I've not done an awful lot. I've just basically watched the whole Jurassic Park trilogy on DVD, and that's it. Today described in one sentence.
KK, done. Till tomorrow

Nam and i have now been together as boyfriend and girlfriend for over a year, (a year and three days as a matter of fact), and so, to also help get my mind off of the depression that hit my like a brick wall at school this morning, I've decided to put up a couple sappy love songs that make me think of my dearest Nam Nguyen. One of these songs i sang with our school choir at Bachaloriate, or however the fuck you spell it, Mass (that's the mass my school does every year two days before graduation/the last day of finals for the seniors), and another one i learned today in my singing class at the Rec Center. Honestly, both those songs made me want to cry cuz they make me think of him that much. Our weekend was so perfect...despite that i almost didn't make it home last night, but still! When i got home, i felt so good, and so special, and then i went to school...so yeah....
You Raise Me Up Lyrics
by Josh Groban
When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up, to more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up, to more than I can be.
There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up, to more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up, to more than I can be.

Song: When I Think About Angels
| Why does the color of my coffee match your eyes Why do I see you when a stranger passes by I swear I hear you in the whisper of the wind I feel you when the sun is dancin' on my skin And when it's raining You won't find me complainin' cause When I think about rain I think about singing When I think about singing It's a heavenly tune When I think about heaven then I think about angels When I think about angels I think about you The taste of sugar sure reminds me of your kiss I like the way that they Both linger on my lips Kisses remind me of a field of butterflies Must be the way the heart is fluttering inside Beautiful distraction You make every thought a chain reaction When I think about rain I think about singing When I think about singing It's a heavenly tune When I think about heaven then I think about angels When I think about angels I think about you Anywhere I go Anything I do Everything around me baby Makes me think of you |
When I think about rain
I think about singing
When I think about singing
It's a heavenly tune
When I think about heaven then
I think about angels
When I think about angels
I think about you

Sea of Love
Honeydrippers
Do you remember when we met
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I want to tell you how much I love you
Come with me, my love
To the sea, the sea of love
I want to tell you how much I love you
Come with me, to the sea
Do you remember when we met
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I want to tell you how much I love you
Come with me, to the sea
Come with me, my love
To the sea, the sea of love
I want to tell you how much I love you
Come with me, to the sea

Christina Aguilera lyrics - Loving Me 4 Me
People ask if I'm in love with you
Because I'm sitting here with your picture
And smiling to myself (I smile)
I'm kinda lost in my own thoughts of you
My heart speaks before my mind thinks through
And I blush as I say yes (yes)
What a feeling of vulnerability coming over me
And I'm feeling weak and I can't speak (speak)
Never thought I'd give in so willingly to a human being
With abilities to set me free
Free, make me be me
Makes me want to say
Your lips, your love, your smile, your kiss
I must admit it's a part of me
You please me, complete me, believe me
Like a melody
Your soul, your flow, your youth, your truth is simply proof
We were meant to be
But the best quality that's hookin' me
Is that you're loving me for me (loving me)
Is that you're loving me for me (ooh)
People ask why I'm in love with you
Well, let me start by saying
You got my heart by just being who you are
And what we got is between me and you
It doesn't matter about the money I make
Or what I do, or that I'm a, huh, a star
Unconditionally you're there for me
Undeniably you inspire me, spiritually, oh so sweet
This is meaningful, it's incredible, pleasurable, unforgettable
The way I feel, so sweet
Makes me want to say
Your lips, your love, your smile, your kiss
I must admit it's a part of me
You please me, complete me, believe me
Like a melody
Your soul, your flow, your youth, your truth is simply proof
We were meant to be
But the best quality thats hookin' me
Is that you're loving me for me (loving me)
Is that you're loving me for me (oh oh yeah)
Its so amazing how something so sweet
Has come and rearranged my life
I've been kissed by destiny
Oh, heaven came and saved me
An angel was placed at my feet
This isn't ordinary, he's loving me for me
Stripped of all make up, no need for fancy clothes
No cover ups, push ups
With him, I dont have to put on a show
He loves every freckle, every curve, every inch of my skin
Fulfilling me entirely, taking all of me in
He's real, he's honest, and he's loving me for me
Yeah

Well, that's my night. I'm gonna go watch Adult Swim and wait for Nam to call me. I might update about San Diego later, but maybe not. Some of the content is a little X-rated. ;) (And yes, Nam is still a virgin! perverts...)
