Ouch!!

Today, I mean 29 april, Sunday.

I had one of my most "Ouch!" practice ever in my life.

I fell hardly two times on the same knee, now it's a big ouching bruise there, on my left knee. After that, some of us practiced a spin, where you sit very low, using your thigh. Doing that many times at once, you not only get dizzy by doing the spins, but also putting much strain on your thigh. So after doing the spins, most of us got cramp in that muscle.
Then we began doing practices where you lift your leg back and hold it there while gliding. I did one great, but because of not paying any good attention, I just did something and fell on my own edge and scratched my right elbow. Now it sting...
After the practice, I began to feel how my left calf hurted. I didn't think so much about it, and got home. But then I felt it more and more.

Now, I'm kind of handicapped. Can't walk normally without feeling ouch somewhere on my body. My left leg is a total mess, the knee, both upper and lower muscles, and my ass still hurts since thursday practice, an elbow with a stingy scratch. I wonder if I'll be better tomorrow....

Poor dog...

Picture and article from Aftonbladet.se (Link) 25 april 2007, Wednesday.

This is what happened to the dog Keano, he was wanted to befriend with the neighboor labrador. But after sticking in the nose, ears and the whole head, he couldn't move away from there. The neighboor discovered the stucked Keano, 6 months old eskimo-dog, and alarmed the fire brigade. It took them half an hour to get Keano out of there, he made it without any injuries.

(Keano is named after the soccerplayer Roy Keane)

Bakuon Drop!!

Tomorrow... Every third year student in Sweden is going to face a big exam tomorrow. 5 hours writing exam in Swedish. 5 hours, I've never been sitting on the same chair for so long! I wonder if I'm going to be able to sit for that long.
It's said that we'll going to get a sandwich and something to drink after two hours or so, but I wonder how much that would help...
I bought some Marabou chocolate and a yoghurt drink for the exam, so that I won't be able to fall asleep somewhere in the middle of the test... Wish me luck.. haha

So, for this sake, I didn't go to my practice today, because if I did go, I'll come home after 11 pm, eat and take a shower, and go to bed around 12 pm if I'm lucky and fast enough. Usually I can't go to bed before 1 am after these practices. Then I'll get only 5 or 6 hours' sleep, if so much. I don't know if I can afford that. So I decided in the last minute not to go to the practice. I'll go to sleep early, so that I get at least 8 hours' sleep.
So, in a few minutes I'm going to bed.
Good Night! ...zzz

Sleepy Dragon...

It was an intensive weekend this time...
Saturday and Sunday was this coach course for figure skating, interesting and good, but you really get tired by sitting and listening to the "teacher" for many many hours.
Saturday night I went to town for a "graduation-party". It was very fun, and the theme was to change style, for example to 70s clothing and so on. So everybody on the party had clothes they aren't usually wearing. It was some interesting costumes here and there. My so called style was kind of rock style, mixed with Hisashi hairstyle and make-up. Many came to me and said they really liked the hairstyle. Hahaha....did it on ten minutes or so....same with the make-up.

I tried not to stay out too late, because of the course the day after. But even if I leaved around 11 pm, I had to take a shower and pack things to the practice I had after the course, it became quite late afterall...
So, on Sunday, I was quite tired, tried to stay focus with eating apples and candies they had prepared for us on the table.
After the course, I had to stay because of the practice with the team in the same place as the course was held. But on the practice, I was not as alert as I should've been. I got tired quite fast and the practice was 2 hours nonstop.
Somehow, I managed to stay on my feet, and my mum came to pick me up, so I didn't need to travel home by train. Which I was happy for, because it was raining at the time the practice ended. So I was very grateful when mum picked me up.

On wednesday we have a 5 hours long writing exam in Swedish... It's said that we'll get a sandwich during the writing, but I wonder how I'll be able to sit still for such a long time...!! I've never done that before... I hope you'll get a chance to move and stand up, so that you won't fall asleep during the exam... hehe.

Happy Swing!! ...but not the best day...

I recieved my first Happy Swing Issue!! o(^O^)o Vol.44
Immediately I opened it and looked through the pages and started to read one after one. It really is something different with knowing that the members in GLAY reads their fans' letters and looking at their works, comments and answer to questions. And to be able to be a part of it, feels special.

I felt so happy when I got it. But the happy feeling was crushed at home... My bad brothers didn't listen to mum, who yelled after them to do their homeworks, they didn't listen a bit and rushed around the house making irritating noises. A big mess.
Well, it's always like this, but today was even worse. I couldn't stand it a minute. So when I got outside to throw the trash out, I stayed outside for some quiet minutes, breathing fresh air. The sun was going to set and it was just peace...and quiet..
Then I had to go back inside again, because it began to get a bit chilly. Back to the noise again...

Shortly, today was a messy day, and this weekend is going to be hard too. I have to attend a course for coaches in figure skating. I'm going to learn things that will make me a higher coach/trainer. For two days, I hope it won't be too hard...

HAPPY! (^O^)

At last!! o(^O^)o
Today, my Happy Swing Member Card arrived! And it is said that it takes about 3 months for it to arrive, but it only took around 2! Happy Happy! (^^)

I can't wait until their issue arrives! Hopefully the latest month will arrive, but if I'm unlucky, I'll have to wait until June for the next issue.

Happy Swing is GLAY's Official Fanclub.
I was so sad that I couldn't become a member, 'cause I'm not living in Japan. But after reading on some fansites around the net, I saw that even people living outside Japan can become a member, and I rushed to post a letter to them.

This week, GLAY was no 1 with single "Kodou" on CountDown TV in Japan.

Easter break...

This week is my Easter break, and I have no school until monday.
I was at a hair dresser this thursday, and I cut my long hair. So now it's a bit shorter than before, but the hair dresser did a good job, so I'm satisfied. But I'll have to straighten it even more now, so that it'll look good. Anyway, it's been around a year since I was at a hair dresser last time, so it was time to cut it.

Today, my brother and I went to a guitar shop, where we looked at basses. We found one good bass for a good price, Ibanez. We played with it, while my brother's friend played on a electronic drum set. It was a good one, I think I'll take that bass.

「鼓動」

Today, GLAY is releasing their new single, Kodou.
Unfortunately, I don't live in Japan, so I can't go to any store to buy it... (-.-) But I've seen the PV for Kodou, and the song is very beautiful. It's the song for a new movie in Japan, Taitei no Ken, and starts showing in Japanese theaters 7 April.

April's Fooooooool!

Exactly, today's April Fool's Day.
But I haven't been fooled, nor fooled someone. I did these kind of things when I was a child, trying to come up with some fun jokes, but they wasn't the best ones...hahaha.
I've just been relaxing today, 'cause I have already finished my two school assignments yesterday. So I didn't have big plans for today.
But it's less than a week to my Easter-break!! I haven't planned it yet, but I'm not going to travel somewhere... It'll have to wait until summer. Then I'm going to TOKYO!! (>=<)
Can't wait!! Aaah!

In four days, GLAY's new single is releasing. I've already listen to one of their songs, Kodou. It's a beautiful song. I wonder how the other song, Toge, is like... I've heard the beginning and the end of it on Teru's radio program. It seems to be quite a fast song. I like fast songs (^^)

Ah, tomorrow is another day with school, we're going to clean and tidy up the art rooms, throw away stuff we don't need, clean the desks, tidy up our shelfs and stuff like that. Interesting, huh?
