Long time, no Leeney!
You're probably like: Who is this girl? Why does she assume we know her?

Anyways that's besides the point! I have recently taken a look at my old blog and Facebook posts from at least a year ago. Even some entries from a diary that I had can apply to what I'm trying to say.
As I read my old stuff during my "golden years" here, I noticed that I was extremely immature and quite naive. Well, I was young, I was still growing up. Speaking of growing up, it was one of my reasons for leaving the site as a whole: I wanted to develop my personal life. This life includes my relationships with my friends, family and most of all, my community. Through this "self discovery" I became much more open minded, gained maturity and learned the importance of gratitude. I nagged quite a lot in my old posts complaining about some of the pettiest things, at least in my eyes.

Now, as I am heading towards college I hope that I am able to reflect on my learning experiences not only on social networks but through a dairy that I hope to create VERY soon. I believe that when I see my growth throughout college, I am sure to learn much more about myself and become more satisfied with my accomplishments. I hope I can revive my blog one day with a positive approach. Even if I don't, I have a reason to stay(other than for RPGs) and a motivation to come here. I don't want to give up just yet!

P.S.- I have put my academics and personal life over Bulbagarden for the past year or two and I apologize for that. However, it was all worth it.
In addition, I congratulate all those who have received a high school diploma and GED this year. ]]> *Leeney Hakurei* http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/class-2012-49220/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/stocks-47667/ Fri, 25 May 2012 18:17:20 GMT Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening!

My class is playing a stock game so we're all investing in different companies in order to make a profit. Whoever makes the most money by the deadline wins. I want to be in the top 5 but I've never invested in stocks and as a result, I have no idea what I am doing. If I can't be in the top, I at least want to know where to invest.

Thanks for reading!

Wooooooooooo! I checked my history here & I have not logged in in exactly one month. But it's update time!!!

Well, you may wonder why my title for this entry is "Too fit to be 'Leeney'". This past year has caused a complete turn around in my life. I look back on my posts from before to see that there were degrees in which I was very immature. I really haven't gotten the opportunity to mature here since I've taken a leave here and by the looks of it, I won't be permanently here for a while. I enjoy my new 'fit' self although there is always room for improvement. Here are some ways on how I became 'fit':

1. My weight has been lighter than half my middle school years. As a high school senior I now weigh around 120 lbs(55 kg). Around this time last year, I was about 160 lbs and during freshman and sophomore year I was around 185. My health started to get affected. I knew I had to change myself physically. I wasn't happy. The top foods I gave up were fast-food, soda, and sweets which are a no-no. Then I moved on to becoming serious in my vegetarian diet. I also exchanged unreliable public transportation for walking to places that I consider close. I simply became much more active(I was part of my school's dance team before I started going to the gym) and ate better.

2. I'm also academically 'fit'. I have earned my position as valedictorian of my respective high school. I've already written my speech but my principal has improved it greatly so I hope graduation goes well for me.

3. I'm 'fit' to be social too. I've joined two non-profit organizations at my school and have made many friends and acquaintances. The irony is that I've grown closer to the people that I've recent;y gotten to know while growing further apart with my first friends. I still wish I had more topics to talk with others but I've gotten better. I hope to improve this once I go to college.

Enough of my 'fit' blog!

(Everyone else:Who?)

Haven't updated in a while. How am I if you care? I'm doing well. My academic performance and my personal life is currently nothing to complain about.

Anyway, I've noticed that typing papers is not exactly my forte. It's not that I don't know what I'm doing it's just that I tend to do everything else but the paper. I'm in my final year in high school and I can't afford taking 2 hours to type a mere 250 word essay. No excuses! I would just like to know how one would slowly lose his/her distractions and actually get focused on his/her work. That way there will be more productivity. Any help will be appreciated! ]]> *Leeney Hakurei* http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/time-get-focused-but-not-here-44593/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/here-we-have-nice-visit-my-super-long-haitus-37322/ Tue, 25 Oct 2011 21:00:31 GMT Hmmmmmm..........I've become a huge Facebook lover and I constantly lurk around there updating my status. I swear that place has become my new virtual diary. Whenever I'm not on Facebook I've been studying or going listening to Touhou themes on Youtube. As a senior in my high school I am very busy in order to get into the best college that I can get into while still in the right financial path.
Anyway I've developed a huge interest in Cosmetics and a little bit of Architecture. Unfortunately I don't have much time to pick between the two. I also have to decide whether I want to go to a SUNY or CUNY. I think I have my priorities in good control right now. I have to review for the SAT I'm taking in November for the last time, pass my Advanced Placement classes, lose around 10 more pounds, fill out college applications and getting closer to my crush(maybe not as important but I was hoping to have at least 1 boyfriend before I graduate).
Oh! And one more thing before I end this blog, I have my first college/scholarship essay that I would like to be reviewed by as many people as possible. I want it to be really good before I submit it to anything. If any of you would like to read it PM me and I'll send it to you.

And with that I'm off

I was confused at first since I really haven't been responsible for anyone except for myself. I had to be more assertive and make sure all of the little kids were nice and safe. I was very nervous especially when my group had to go upstate to Rye Playland. I had to watch over 3 kids and even though they cried whenever they didn't get what they wanted,(We had to go back to NYC so they got very sad) they made it safe and sound.

At times, usually when there wasn't an actual teacher they refused to listen to me but I enjoyed my job. Whenever I walked in a majority of the kids ran and gave me a hug "Hello". They called me "Ms.Arlene", "Leina"(Don't ask), simply "Arlene" or "Teacher". It was such a good feeling. Reminds me of when I was in preschool but I remember playing more games. The kids invited me to play with them all the time. I kept telling them I was too big. However, I still played along with imagination games or read them stories rather than playing with toys. I made bonds with many of the kids even though I was with them for a short time.

I don't think I'll ever forget this experience and out of my time of working, I'll miss the kids the most. ]]> *Leeney Hakurei* http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/working-kids-sure-gives-me-nostalgic-feeling-%5E_%5E-34234/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/havent-posted-here-awhile-but-time-means-something-31930/ Fri, 01 Jul 2011 03:12:31 GMT Truman HS football star Isayah Muller fatally stabbed in brawl after graduation

This was the first thing I saw on my Facebook page when I woke up yesterday morning. I couldn't believe it. This guy was a star athlete that just graduated. It was only a few hours after he received his high school diploma that his precious life was taken away. I really didn't have a chance to know him but a majority of my classmates were really affected by this because they saw him as a brother/a true friend. I wished that I've gotten to know him because he seemed really cool. I was quite saddened when I saw a slideshow of him made by a friend of his. It was simple but very effective in catching my emotions. This has made me realize that I should hold on to the friends/family/mentors I have now before they are gone. His hopes and dreams were unfortunately and unnecessarily short. He was one of the many students that gave Harry S Truman honor and great achievement by playing one of the popular American sports football. Read the article for more info.

I decided to post this on here because I wanted to make some sort of tribute of him even though I really didn't know him. But I kept holding it off until I saw the slideshow my friend made. Well, to finish off my 10 cents in the issue I just want to say chase your dreams straight to the touchdown, hold on to that ball(your close friends/family/etc.) and don't let go and if you get tackled get back up until you can't anymore. If you read this blog, I greatly appreciate it. :)

Today I finally got my wisdom teeth removed. I thought I was going to be in extreme pain but as long as I take these antibiotics I should be fine. At least I was put to sleep. ]]> *Leeney Hakurei* http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/today-ive-had-first-surgery-my-life-29167/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/ok-some-people-going-little-too-far-rebecca-black-27731/ Tue, 12 Apr 2011 01:10:05 GMT http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD2LRROpph0

I've never seen so many dislikes on a Youtube video on my four years having an account there. A lot of the comments are extremely negative. Some user apparently posted her phone # and the other guy who was rapping too. Now all these people who hate her with no lives are gonna flame them. I don't know why so many people hate the song. Sure the lyrics could improve but the song is starting to grow on me. People should give her credit for trying and not trying to constantly put her down like this. I don't think this is fair to the people who actually like R.B. and R.B herself. ]]> *Leeney Hakurei* http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/ok-some-people-going-little-too-far-rebecca-black-27731/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/sigh-leeney-not-good-mood-27608/ Sun, 10 Apr 2011 01:24:29 GMT Ignore the fact that I referred myself in third person in the title. I'm not happy right now and since I don't have a dairy nor would like to write my feelings on Facebook so I will post them here.

*Tomorrow in order to be less ignorant about possible colleges I could go to I decided to go on to the college fair at Javits Center. At first my sister wouldn't let me go because she thought it wasn't safe. So on Facebook today I posted a message seeing if anyone would go with me. A friend of mine volunteered to go but when I texted him to make sure he says that it's a low possibility that he can go. That got me mad and sad so in order to make me happy my sister decided to take me tomorrow.

*Everyone except my music teacher is telling me to leave my crush alone. I try to give him like, a million chances but they all seem to fail. I should really listen but I feel sad that I couldn't make him enjoy my presence. He won't even go to the store with me for 2 minutes. :(

Sad part is that no matter who I talk to I don't feel any better and I feel as if I'm stressing them out more. I don't like depending on people much and the people I would like to depend on don't give two shits about me. Right now my headache from the stress just faded after I got started on some science homework. I wanna go to sleep right now. ]]> *Leeney Hakurei* http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/sigh-leeney-not-good-mood-27608/ http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/another-update-life-leeney-26424/ Sun, 20 Mar 2011 03:49:53 GMT Hey everyone! Here are a few updates on my status(Warning it may be too long for you to read):
1. I have to write a song for my crush for my private music class. I really don't want to since the last one I wrote became useless after he got a girlfriend. I can't sing high notes and I know the results will end in failure so yeah....this will end up only in memories.

2. I have Pokemon Black. I have a few issues on the game considering I beat the Elite Four and Team Plasma. First, the soundtrack on the game really wasn't my favorite. Of course I had a few select songs I liked but other than that it sounded bland to me.(My favorite soundtrack was from R/S/E). I also was annoyed at the music change when your Pokemon's HP was red. I still want to hear that music from before. Another issue I had was with Pokemon Musical. I don't get it at all. Do I really get anything from doing this activity. I had more fun and the Pokethlons. I miss the contests!!!! Other than that I liked the game. Grimsley looks awesome. Bisharp beat Infernape as my favorite Pokemon. I beat the game in under 30 hours. I caught Reshiram with my second Ultra Ball.

3. I have stop being lazy and start looking at some colleges to apply for. I don't have much time left. ]]> *Leeney Hakurei* http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/23931/another-update-life-leeney-26424/
