Well, we may not have made it to the World Series. But we still had a pretty good run this year.

...And we'll get it next year~

(I so highly doubt that Robertson will be among those getting there with us, though. Damn, it's pretty safe to say that he kind of blew three of the games we lost this series for us. And if the Yankees don't sign Cliff Lee, I will be shocked. Just sayin'.)

But yes. It's all good. We still got next year!

...And it's still a ton of fun being that girl, walking around Massachussetts with a Yankee cap on, during the postseason. XD

In other, non-baseball related news, I finally tagged my entries from the past few months, when I just didn't want to bother doing it. I'm so proud of myself for catching up on those!

Tomorrow (well, technically today) is Hetalia Day. And I won't be there. Which is just strange. But... I'll be calling in to it, so I guess it's all good. And for the rest of the day, time I would have spent at the meetup, I will be introducing a friend to Hetalia, which is incredibly appropriate, and going to see The Social Network. (Which I really don't have the money for, but... I've just heard that it's so good.)

Lastly, I was looking for movie soundtrack music the other day, and I somehow ended up registered with Pandora. I don't know how that happened, but I now have a movie music channel on Pandora, and I love it. It's now playing one of the themes from Star Trek: 2009, and that just makes me all kinds of happy. (The saddest part is that I can visualize in my head exactly what's going on in the movie when this particular theme plays. XD)

So I was having a thoroughly crappy night tonight.

-My roommate had her friends over, so they kind of took over. Again. (Not that I mind that much- they're nice and all- and if it were just that, I wouldn't have a problem... but I can't study when they're here. And this is the second night in a row it's happened.)

-My computer started acting a little... odd today, when I tried to close it and open it up again a little later. Not, like, really strangely, but enough to be annoying.

-THE YANKEE GAME TODAY. Holy fuck shit, it made me want to stab a baby. We had a lead, we were going to be fine, and then our bullpen just couldn't do shit. It was awful- even worse than last night. I actually wanted to kill something.
(By the way, non-Yankee fans? If you want to gloat or whatever, do so on your own journal. I don't want to hear it here. Like, I'm actually really pissed about this. We have the highest paid roster in baseball. This shouldn't happen to us. And I'm pissed about it.)

-The Yankee haters are really starting to get on my nerves. If you root for a team that has a genuine rivalry with the Yankees, that's one thing. Like, if you're a legit Red Sox fan, it would be hard to miss. A Mets fan... the Yankee fans can afford to be gracious since we usually win. Mets fans don't have that luxury, and I get it. But hating the Yankees just because they're the Yankees? That's really starting to fucking piss me off. Hating a team because they win does not make you "edgy". It doesn't mean that you're "different", "unique", or "anti-conformist". It just makes you a douche, and it makes you really fucking annoying. No matter how badly they may have lost tonight or last night, the Yankees don't suck. In fact, unless your team is the Rangers, the Yankees beat your team. So just... stop bitching. Seriously. It's really fucking annoying when you hate a team for no reason whatsoever.

BUT.

I was clearly having a crappy night... but then I saw this, and all of that just went away.

Am I still annoyed at Yankee haters? Oh, yes. Do I still want to stab something after that shoddily played game today? You bet. But do I really care anymore right now due to happy from this? NO, NOT AT ALL. :D

GOD I WANT THIS SO BADLY LIKE I DON'T EVEN.

...Just felt like you all ought to know that. :D

Venus, and anyone else who will know my pain... even if you're not a Yankees or Red Sox fan. So my college is right nearby Boston, the home of the Red Sox. The Red Sox are also the greatest rivals of my own team, the New York Yankees. And last night was the first time since I'd been here that there was a Yankees vs. Red Sox game. And the college had a whole event for it- they got a projector and they were playing the game in one of the student centers and there was free pizza and everything. GUESS WHO DIDN'T GET TO GO, BECAUSE HER FRIENDS DON'T CARE ABOUT BASEBALL?? And it was a really exciting game, too!! Even if the Yankees ended up losing, I SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE. And I wasn't. All because I didn't want to be there alone, and my friends wouldn't go with me. I FELT AN ACTUAL, PHYSICAL PAIN. It was seriously terrible. I can haz sympathy nao?

I was going to make a whole, comprehensive post about my college life, but that would get really long, and I don't know if it's worth it. What do you guys think?

Gonna go into Boston in a bit, which should be nice. I haven't gone into the city to really hang out yet- I've gone in to go to South Station (the train/bus terminal there), but that's really been it... so it should be fun~

Yes, life is a game. AND THE YANKEES HAVE WON IT.

So, today was not the day I was able to start catching up on my flist. And do you know why that is? Because this afternoon, I went to the Yankee game.

IT WAS SUCH AN AWESOME GAME. Two amazing plays at the plate, Mark Texiera is an awesome defensive player, the Melk-man delivered, Derek Jeter is the most amazingest player EVER and Hideki Matsui had the most exciting walk off home run ever!!!

Plus (and my... sympathies towards Bostonians on my flist) Boston lost today, so... WE'RE TIED FOR FIRST PLACE IN THE AL EAST WHAT NOW???

In other words? As I said before- life is a game, and the Yankees have won it.

GO YANKEES!!!!!

Current Mood: ecstatic

YAY I HAVE A INTERNET THAT'S WORKING FOR THE TIME BEING!!

...Ironically, I don't have much to post about.

But, uh... ACCUTUNES.COM. THEY HAVE 33 BROADWAY CHANNELS ALONE, AND SO MANY OTHERS AND IT'S AMAZING AND I LOVE IT. I'm listening to it now. It's beautiful. :D

So I went to the Yankee game yesterday. THE NEW STADIUM IS BEAUTIFUL. I mean, I had doubts because the old one was classic, iconic, the House that Ruth Built and all, but... the new one is so nice!! And it was an awesome game too! I mean, I totally ruined my voice cheering, but it was so exciting and THE YANKEES WON!!! THEeEeEeEeEeEeEeE YANKEES WON!!! It was just awesome. And even though Derek Jeter (my favorite player) didn't play yesterday because it was a day game after a night game, Melky Cabrera played (one of my other favorites... partially because of his name. He has a great name) and he hit a two-run homerun that ended up winning the game!! I love what they put on the jumbotron when he gets a hit too- "The Melk-man Delivers!!" It's kind of amazing.

Btw, GO YANKEES. Just. You know. Saying. XD

Mmkay, I'm going to do Secret Life of Dolls now. Because I haven't updated in two weeks, and that doesn't work.

And I still haven't found out when anything else is, so... nothing else yet.

So today I went to the worst baseball game I have ever been to in the history of my life. Granted, my life hasn't been very long... but that's beside the point! Anywho, it was Mets/Phillies, and the Phillies creamed them. I have never seen a major league team play so badly. There were a total of... about 7 errors, 11 walks... the final score was 10 to 6, Phillies. The worst part is, the Mets were behind 5 to 1 in the 5th inning, they actually managed to tie it up, and then they lost it. It was mortifying, and I'm not even a Mets fan. Well, not really like that. Hell, I like the Mets, provided they're not playing my team, the Yankees. And I usually root for the Mets, except in said circumstance. But that was humiliating. It was so bad, even I left early, and I don't leave anything early, just because I like to see it through to the end. But damn...

And as of yesterday, I have begun work on my Mai costume. I got the perfect turtleneck and pants, I already have boots that will work, I went to Claires, and I didn't find gloves exactly like I was looking for, but I found some that were close enough, and at this fabric store I found the perfect cloth for the over-jacket-thing. I even got the salesperson to take it down from $10 a yard to $7 a yard, so I am very proud of myself. Now, to simply not screw it all up...

Anywho, enough of this, it's time for Chinese food and the Emmys!
