[Me logging onto my UW-web account two days-ish ago]: *takes a look at newly-designed front page, flinches at the randomness and the inability for my eyes to focus on any one section*

*takes a look at where it states my tuition bill*

"...........Ack!"

*falls off chair in a not-that-great-fashion*

My sister and I spent the day out today. First we went to IHOP, where their Harvest Grain & Nut pancakes defeated me yet again. At Borders she went for her cross-stitching stuff and I wandered to the DVD section, thinking that I might sell out to the devil and oogle the new-school Doctor Who series if they had it.

They didn't have it.

We went to Suncoast thereafter, in which I greedily snatched up the Serenity Collector's edition (!Jayne! Yay!) and I went ahead and bought the Buffy movie, because I was interested in having it. And I thought I'd go over and see if Suncoast had the Dr. Who DVDs, since, y'know...movie/television DVD store.......

They didn't have it either.

We drove over to the Lacey Walmart, and my sister bought some stuff while I went searching for the Dr. Who DVDs yet again, desperately.

And yet again, they didn't have it. Phooey.

Bought some good Korean food for take-out, went home, ate, had our mother send us out again to her friend's place to pick something up, and on our way back we swung by the Baskin Robbins, where I (re: my sister) got me a quart of some very delicioso Peanut Butter 'n' Chocolate. Yumyumyum. I probably would've gotten an ice cream shake but...I was too full from first the pancakes and then the Korean food barely 3 hours later.

We arrived back home, and I opened my Collector's Edition and ooh-ed and aah-ed over the very pretty box. They had a little flier inside advertising other merchandise like the blueprints and "official papers" to Serenity (the ship, for all you non-watchers out there) and posters of places in the Firefly/Serenity universe and Alliance currency. I'm very very pleased I waited to buy Serenity. I kinda/sorta/not-really wish I had waited on FF:Advent Children for the collector's edition, but....I love the one I have. It has sentimental value. ^.^

My sister's thinking about swinging over to Suncoast again tomorrow because they have a special Anime sale going on. I'll probably join her. Who knows what I'll come out of the store with? They said they'll have anime scrolls(posters) on sale 2 for $25. Eh, it all depends. I kinda like the t-shirt they have in the store which has a picture of Pocky and the word Addict written over it. Hehehehehehe.

I'm starting to think about what I need for University this year. I need a water filter pitcher because drinking the University water straight from the tap 100% ensures you will need a hospital visit within the week, if not the day, thanks to all the chlorine they put in it. And bottled water is not only heavy to carry when it's 35 bottles to a box, but also kinda inconvenient. But I need to know if the water pitcher will fit in the refrigerator I will (hopefully) rent out from the UW. Blaaaagh. I also need to be aware of how much space I'm going to have; I have a prediction in mind, so I'm going to try and keep the stuff I bring to what I believe I can fit in that prediction. Worse comes to worse, I'll give some stuff back to my sister to drive back home.

Galen: I was just thinking on whether or not a comment would be 'most wanted or least needed'.
Gideon: I thought you said you don't hold a grudge?
Galen: I don't. I have no surviving enemies. At all.

[Gideon orders that probes be dropped onto the planet.]
Galen: I want you to know that this thing just made a very large dent in my ship. Did you ever think about looking outside before you start throwing things overboard?
Gideon: Maybe next time you'll let us know when you're coming. --Crusade
