Well, it's done. Zelly's back in England. I feel like part of me is missing right now. Love, I need to see you on MSN today if possible. I need your company again... like REALLY need it. *hugs her*
I recall last time I gave a report, my sadness was fogging my memory, and it would be again, but this time I was smart and wrote everything on the day it happened, so there's no room for error. Here's my list of days away:
Saturday, June 27th 2009
I got up at 3:00am to get to the first airport at 5:00am. I finally got onto the plane at 6:30am, roughly. This was a new experience for me because I had never been on a plane as long as I can remember. last time I flew, I was only a week old. But the taking off was thrilling! The cars looked like bugs and soon disappeared altogether as the houses got to be that size in my view. I had a window seat, so I got to see it all. The clouds below us were like land fulls of snow! I could feel the pressure changes as we went up and down. Finally we got to New Jersey at about 8:15am. Thing was, Zelly's flight wasn't due 'til around noon. My mom and I stayed in the airport and walked around, ate at McDonald's, did a couple Word Searches... But for the mot part, we were just killing time. When 11:50 came around, we stayed right where the international flights were coming in. For a while, we were worried... where was she? All we saw where people from India. We waited for some time, but we were relieve that this was normal because one of the attendants said it'd take an hour sometimes to get through customs. Sure enough, she arrived and I darted for her, staying with her ever since. We looked around at some of the shops and got some fries to eat. We had to wait 'til about 5pm before the flight back was ready. Then it was an hour or so drive back home, so we ended up getting home late. She was still up, so I showed her some of my drawings on the real paper.
Sunday, June 28th 2009
Not much happened today. It was a day to just cool off and relax. There was a little bit of getting homesick, but spending time with her helped cure that. I showed her more drawings, what productions I had been working on with my SpyBorg Virus Slayer game, then the characters I made on Soul Calibur IV and finally, my hideouts in Morrowind. She gave me a few presents, one being The Minish Cap! I played some with her watching me for a while, too. It's a lot of fun, that game. This was just the time we needed to get settled and ready for adventure later!
Monday, June 29th 2009
Today we had sme good times. I read some in one of my presents I was given - the Majora's Mask manga - and was given a lot of inspiration. My parents figured out how to get the phone connection right so Zelly could phone her parents and talk to them, as well as her brothers. I showed her the beginning to Fable: The Lost Chapters and she likes it more than Fable II (and to be honest, so do I). We left the house today and went to a tea shop, a specialty tea shop with teapots, kettles, cups, spoons, infusers and of course, lots of real leaf teas. Some of the smells were wonderful when they opened the canisters to show us. Some I didn't like, I have to say. But after that, we went to Wal Mart to look at some games - after having been at a Game Spot store. I played some more of The Minish Cap, beating Gleerok. We had a couple other activities, but too soon it was time to hit the sack. Fun times!
Tuesday, June 30th 2009
Today was an interesting day. It started with playing some Professor Layton (which I'm going to need to get, myself) and a little bit of Minish Cap. We left to go to the farm nearby where my sister's currently working. We got to hold bunnies and see some of the other animals. One bunny just seemed to melt into Zelly, it was so cute! We left for the mall later, the one we went to back in 2007. We got some gifts for her parents there, as well as her brothers. I got something myself, but it wasn't for me... more on that later. But we also got to eat at Ruby Tuesday's. It was good, service was wonderful and certainly filled us up! Our last stop there was at the Build-a-Bear, where my mom and I knew beforehand that there were Snow Leopards for limited time. We got one for her and everything was wonderful as far as selection and customization. The lady assisting us was so nice, too. Zelly even went through the "heart ceremony", because you're adding some love in the stuffed toy. She even made him a little on the squishy side for being cuddly. It was all so adorable to watch. When we got home, Zelly phoned home for a bit. I later showed her my old Fable: The Lost Chapters file on the original X-Box to show how a final character with all abilities would look. Then we designed a new outfit for Zelda in Soul Calibur IV, last getting an idea for an outfit for Ryo in CotT. It ended with some Phoenix Wright to get me un-stuck from a certain spot. We were still both stumped until Zelda had one of her strokes of genius and got us further. Tomorrow, we're scheduled to go to the Zoo! Can't wait!
Wednesday, July 1st 2009
We didn't go to the Zoo today due to weather being against us, but we did go to a swimming pool. We went mid/later in the day, spending a few hours there. We splashed around a lot and played quite a bit, and Zelly even swam! She's not very good in the water, see, but she managed to swim all on her own. Hooray! Not much else happened that day, mostly playing video games and other stuff, but we sure had a great time!
For some odd reason, I got sick just before bed... like, vomit-sick. I hope tomorrow's without that.
Thursday, July 2nd 2009
We got to the Zoo today! Zoo and water park, to be exact. We first got to see some elephants and rhinos while in line to see a baby elephant. One rhino came out of the shelter area and posed for our camera! We got to see the baby elephant and it was adorable. Still didn't have a good grasp of how to use its trunk yet. Bohdi was his name... I think. We got to see various birds like flamingos and ducks (and they sound much alike) and got to see sea animals, like "Chocolate Chip Starfish", which have dark brown bumps on white skin, so it looks like chocolate chips. We got to touch a snake and see a real komodo dragon. We got ice cream, which was as hard as a rock. Normally it'd melt some to loosen up in hot days but since today was so pleasant and cool, it had trouble melting. We got to ride a huge carousel, Zelly and I on horses beside each other. We got to see a lion, but he was sacked out in the grass, his partner also asleep. We got to see various monkeys and apes, as well. We took a boat ride but it felt more like a slow roller coaster, given how the boat was shaped. It was calm and peaceful, but Zelly and I were stuck in the back. Oh well. We later got things in the gift shop for Zelly's parents, me personally getting a birthday gift for her dad, too. When we left, we went to Cici's Pizza for various foods. When we got home, I showed Zelly a couple episodes of Bananas, a Christian stand-up comedy show. Despite one skit she hated, she still laughed at other ones. I do hope she enjoyed some of it, though. Finishing the day with Professor Layton, it's been a full day.
Friday, July 3rd 2009
Today was a stay-at-home day, not a whole lot going on. Daddy needed some help with moving some of the pieces of the shed he demolished, I showed Zelly more of Fable and we solved more of Layton's game. Those puzzles are so addicting. Zelly called home again and apparently there were things her brother said that upset her. After some consoling and some thought, she felt better. I hate seeing her sad, but fortunately, it had a happy end.
Saturday, July 4th 2009
Another stay-at-home day, but this time we were able to get out of the house and go shopping with my mom. We got an American version of the Layton game for m birthday later. I also got some microsoft points to buy Banjo-Kazooie for my 360. I do have the N64 version, still, but you know... just wanted to be able to play it on my new system. Zelly showed me a game that sounds cool. One of the "Tales" series. We had spaghetti too. I ate most of what I was served, but my stomach started acting up again. After getting some ice water, I showed Zelly even more of Fable because I love the game and she really enjoys it, too. Sadly, I doubt I'll be able to finish the game before she leaves. At least I showed her the Arena. There's a bit of CotT that this inspires. This may give inspiration for later drawings, too. I've been getting a lot of ideas for drawings but not a lot of concentration.
My sister's brought a guest too, so now there're six people in the house.
We didn't get to see fireworks or roast marshmallows. Whole evening ot rained out.
It's my suspicion that this "illness" of mine is emotion related... perhaps it's the sickening realization Zelly will be gone in three days... Starting to feel like Majora's Mask, here.
Sunday, July 5th 2009
We went to Church today and Zelly listened really well here to the sermon and the references. When we got home, we stayed for a bit, but then left to go to a concert my extended family was in. First, we went to a duck pond beforehand, but to our disappointment, there were few ducks and they kept swimming away. How sad. We got to see some of a baseball game my cousin was in though. We left to go to my late Nana and Poppy's house. I showed her where I spent many a-Christmas in my years. We then got to the concert. It was a memorial concert, so it had mainly am American theme. I think it made Zelly feel kinda left out since she's British. In addition, one of the songs was dedicated to a man in one of those wars, so I knew that part upset her. But, after showing how America and Britain have been allies since then, it seemed to help her feel better. We got back home real late. Like, REAL late. But we had a little food a drink before bed. Tomorrow should be good. But I'm sad the final two-day countdown has begun...
Monday, July 6th 2009
Today didn't have much in the beginning, as far as going anywhere or having big events, but we did do some adventuring in Brawl together. I drew for her and we had some huggy moments with each other. The main event, though, was going on a date to Bob Evan's. I drove her in my car there again this year. We each had a lovely meal, our server being very kind and generous. I got a country-fried steak while she had a pasta alfredo. When we got back, we had a cake waiting for Zelly since her parents didn't get her a cake for her birthday (They got her brothers cakes for theirs...) so we sang happy birthday to her and gave her a couple of presents. The day ended with Minish Cap and assisting her pack... very painful for the both of us.

MAKE IT STOP!!! The nightmare that is embodied in Airport form... We flew to New Jersey as usual, but the flight to get back to Ohio for me and my mom got canceled!! Mommy left to negotiate a new flight, but she didn't make it back in time to see Zelly off. I was there for her, though. there were a few tears beforehand, but we tried to keep it together. after she was out of sight, though, I kinda broke down for a bit... Mommy came back not long after Zelly was on the plane and she said we had to spend the night at the airport. They made no attempt to accommodate us with hotel passes or anything. So we had a no-sleep night. We got some snacks and ice cream to last us. But it was just... awful.
Wednesday, July 8th 2009
Happy birthday to me... kinda. Began at the airport, got onto a new flight after spending an early morning there and finally getting to Ohio again. Still depressed, tired, and all birthday plans my mom had lagging behind now, not really starting out a good 20th. But Daddy told me Zelly made it back home safely, so I'm thankful for that. When I got home, I slept for a few hours, then finished typing this. When you read this love, I need a hug. But the day's not over, and I think it can only go up from here.
Yes, today is my 20th birthday. I even got a present on DA. ^^ So I'll be displaying it here.

Thank you all for your patience and support! I'll post some new drawings soon!
...Oh, yeah. If you've been here for a long time - being an active watcher of mine, I mean - and you can't find your name in "My Contacts", don't worry. That list is just poorly out-dated. I'm not ignoring you. I'll update it sometime. Thanks. ^^- - - - - - - - - -
