 So today turned out really well.  My mom, and myself had initially planned to go out to eat for my birthday around 5pm or so, but since my sister had something to do we changed it to 3pm.  Everybody met up with us at the restaurant including my family from out of town.  I actually had a really good time.  I drinking a bit did loosen me up because I had a strawberry margarita.  Either way I was successfully able to engage with my family, and I was very pleased with how well I did.  

My best friend posted on twitter that she was having a difficult day, and I sent her a tweet asking if everything was okay.  She told me she'd just had a rough day at work.  I realized how much she's probably been struggling lately with her new job, and her family sort of controlling her life.  It makes me realize that I really need to be a better friend to her, and check in on her every now and then.  We're supposed to go to the movies tomorrow to see X-Men: Apocalypse.  I'm looking forward to it.  I'm not a huge fan of many of the X-Men films, but I'm a huge fan of the comics, and have been reading them since I was 10 years old.  That being said I hope this movie is decent, and won't be too disappointing.  I didn't really care for the last X-Men film with the exception of Quicksilver's character.  Otherwise I thought it was pretty lame.  Either way I'm going to see this one because I'm definitely an X-Men fan, and I want to know what happens in this movie.  The trailer did look somewhat promising so we'll see tomorrow.

I was on twitter I believe and I saw an article about a 1970's Japanese anime that was getting an official re-release on dvd called "Belladonna of Sadness" (哀しみのベラドンナ.)  Apparently it was considered one of the first erotic cartoons ever made, and it was produced by Mushi production. Despite being created at Mushi it was the only film from this trilogy not written or directed by Osamu Tezuka (Astroboy, Black Jack.)   The trailer looks really interesting, and I'm always interested in checking out really old animation films since it's been a love of mine for a long time.  It definitely looks very psychedelic, and really reminds me of the 70s.  The music is really interesting as well.  I'm definitely going to check this out when it's officially released.  It's pretty strange though I must warn you.  I have somewhat weird taste in art, but that goes without saying xD!   Read more... )

 My family is here from out of town, and honestly I don't want to deal with it.  One of them is staying with us.  I haven't seen these people since I was a small child so honestly I don't remember them.  So right now I'm just hiding in my room...lol.  I always sort of clam up when people that aren't my immediate family show up.  I'm not really close to any of them, and they just sort of look at me like I'm the weirdo.  Either way I don't give any amount of fucks.  I'm just going to watch stuff on netflix all day, and only come out of my room in short intervals.  

I'm also afraid they'll try to get me to speak Spanish, and my Spanish is very horrible I'm afraid.  I can understand some of it, but I can't speak it very well at all.  I took it in high-school, and I forgot a lot of it.  The main person I spoke in Spanish to was my great grandmother, and my grandmother and neither of them are living now.  Also I hate those stupid questions like "So what are you doing now?", "Where do you work?", or the dreaded "Do you have a boyfriend?" in which I don't feel like addressing with them right now.  I just can't bothered to be sociable today.  It's the day after my b-day dammit!  At least give me one day in peace while I"m on vacation from work. D: 

The reason everyone is here is because they're having a Panamanian picnic in our city.  It's something that my grandma used to do every year so I have family coming from out of town to go.  I'm not going because every time I went it was boring as hell.  I stopped going years ago, and luckily my parents never make me go...lol.  I think I'll just stay home and play guitar or something. 

Well I came out of my room, and it really wasn't too bad.  I guess cause everyone isn't here yet.  Either way I'm just going to take it in stride.  I can be social when I want to be it's just a struggle for me.  I'll be nice today I promise. ^_^
