1+1=1

I feel stupid. I was making my Tea of Happiness TM today (a mix of peppermint and Chinese Honeydew White), and for both teas I put in the amount that you would use for one cup of water. In one cup of water.
Needless to say it looked really brown when it was done steeping, but I just transferred it into my teapot and added about another cup of water, so it's all good now. Plus, I got the balance right, which makes me happy. Sometimes I put in too much peppermint, in which case I'm just like "well, that was a waste of the Honeydew White" (which costs three times as much as the peppermint, though I thought at first it was five times).
I can't wait to go to Tea Source and spend my gift card. ^_^

I'm also spending some time looking for carrot cake recipes, but it's kinda hard to find ones that only have ingredients that Pat and I currently have. (He's going to bring some vanilla extract tomorrow and maybe buy some frosting.) A lot of them call for corn syrup or stuff like that...

So, I'm gonna go practice kanji now. Ganbaru wa yo!

yum...

Woo... The lead singer of Asian Kung-Fu Generation is cute!! I think I have a glasses fetish...
I really love their music, too... I should buy one of their albums.

carrot cake!

Patrick left my dorm for the last time today. I/we made carrot cake, which although it was a bit too fluffy (although frankly it was a nice variation), and although we had regular frosting instead of the traditional cream cheese frosting, it was good.
Magnolia and Kare Kano #7 arrived from Amazon today. I'm kinda annoyed that the Magnolia case was a little bit beat up, though. I wish they'd train their warehouse workers to take better care of their products, especially when the customer bought it new.
Finally, I got into LEAD ON!. We leave February 17th at 2 pm and will be coming back on the 19th at noon. I hope to learn a lot. ^_^
*goes to read Kare Kano*

not-quite-right fajitas

Shoot. I forgot to heat some refried beans for my fajitas. That's why they don't taste quite right. I'm sad now. :(

drama drama

Okay, I've decided that D-Addicts has a terribly designed website. I can never find anything I'm looking for there! *stabs*
What really pisses me off is that when restarting two Wedding Planner torrents, I accidentally clicked on the wrong file, so now one of my perfectly good files is broken until I can find its torrent so whatever damage was done in that one second can be undone...
