konbanwa!

hey all!

well this has been a fun week! i wrote 3 songs, did some more street team prep, and found out i should be going into the studio VERY soon! of course, i wouldn’t get your hopes up yet… this is, after all, the music industry. oy.

marathon training is going great! i’m starting to feel a little less like i need to die :)

going to keep it short this week so i can hurry up and finish the street team packets.

you are lovely.
kina

oovret’s questions for the week:
favorites!
Citrus? satsuma tangerines
Melon? honeydew. or really good seedless watermelon.
Berry? stawberry or blackberry or blueberry. (favorites are hard…)
Stonefruit? white nectarines or white peaches
Apple? fuji
[BonusQ] “Tropical”? coconut! but not so much on its own. so pineapple then. or mango.

    @ ww1ace: what was I thinking? Of course “FHQWHGADS” would be the superior choice.

    kina Says:

    I would never, ever, ever, ever, ever write a song about a Timmy.

    blew says:

    what the heck… I haven’t posted on the blog since I was first comment( which I am uber proud of haha), blew(the fake one) stop faking as me, that’s is NOT cool at all.

    @steph
    If that was really you, the comic was actually for my AP Environmental Science class(it was about air pollution), and I am not taking calculus, I am actually in pre-calc. Calculus sounds too scary for me, but I am toying with the idea of taking it.

    This/These faker(s) are crazy, I wonder who it is???
    I guess some random fan of kina that is to scared to actually post their name, don’t be shy we won’t hurt you, unless you keep posting under our names and then I will go HULK on you, I’m turning GREEENNNNNN!!!!

    OMG. WW1ACE. these comment things are driving me crazy. lol it takes me forever to figure out what is really posted by people… AHHHHHH XD

    Did you really ask me that question, or was that the imposter?

    I guess I’ll be blue then. You can be blew-GREEN.

    steph says:

    @blew
    it wasnt me!!! it was another ww1ace dialogue… i think. ps. your gravatar isn’t a picture of your face!!! oh and calculus… its not that bad if you’re willing to work hard haha

    TimR says:

    @wwar1ace:
    I actually was going to have the whole “I’ll get to changing my avatar tomorrow” as my thing. Then, everyday I’d say I’m working on it, but never do it. I got bored with the idea before even trying it, so I thought I wouldn’t subject all the nice Kina fans on here to it (nor the not-so-nice fans ;]).

  24. 74
    wwar1ace says:

    Ok, ok… this REALLY wasn’t meant to confuse people, just to entertain by taking the stereotypical online comments of our frequent visitors and going a step further with my own storyline.

    The FIRST time was because the bla(h)g was down, and this time was because it’s just so FREAKIN’ QUIET…. everybody must be busy like asdf. So…

    @JD
    Let’s step back from the brink a moment, no need to go to DefCon-1… if it helps, next time I can lead in with a disclaimer that the following farce is fictional, and any resemblance to ACTUAL virtual people is entirely intentional… Oh yeah, and that copying stuff is BAD. ;-)

    @steph
    It’s easy to tell, just look at the style/format of the comments. My musings are all part of one long block… regular blog comments have alternating bkg colors. If you like, I’ll send you some Excedrin.

    @blew
    It was WWAR1ACE in the OFFICE with a KEYBOARD.

    Oh, and wait till you get to Diff-Eq….

    @blue
    Whoareyou?

    @TimR
    Sorry, maybe you can get another thing. Ooo!You could be crazy-man with a PARROT!!!… Children will run from you.

    @everyoneelse
    Hope you had fun. If not, as the switch said to the bulb, lighten-up.

    A parrot with Tourette’s? Or how ’bout a falcon with a taste for human blood? That’ll get the kiddies a’runnin’.

    @ steph
    I know its not my face as my gravatar, but I love the colors on those shoes, I just couldnt let them not go unseen to the people on the bla(h)g here. I opted out on calc just because i’m going to be a senior and want to take some relatively easier classes, statistics all the way haha.

    @wwar1ace
    That was pretty tricky of you, now I want to know who is blue? Maybe I should just change my name.

    @ doris
    HI!!!

    Finally I am going into my last week of junior year, ready for summer and some surfing.

  30. 80
    wwar1ace says:

    @blew
    To tell the truth, I think I’d rather take Calc than Stats… I always preferred the stuff with definitive answers to things with answers such as “most likely”… :-p

  31. 81
    steph says:

    @ww1ace
    i get it :) no Excedrin needed!

    @blew
    those are pretty sweet shoes. good luck with senior year! mine was a TON of work but def. a lot of fun. so glad i’m done!!! and i agree with ww1ace i def. like knowing definite answers instead of taking stats..however that doesn’t mean taking ap calc bc was a good idea senior year (esp. since i was in the full IB programme haha)

  32. 82
    blew says:

    I much rather prefer definitive answers also, but I understand the things in pre-calc, but am afraid I don’t have a well enough grasp on pre-calc yet to take the leap into calculus just yet. Luckily many of my friends will be in stats and they should be able to help me out. ALso I would feel left out because my schedule as of now is APN( i think it stands for alternate program @ north, and its 2 periods), stats, ceramics, and art. Kind of sad and lazy, but that is what my schedule is as of now. Anyone got any tips for me on what a different schedule could be?

    @blew
    You’re a Saxon?
    How about a foreign language? Or a sport?

  34. 84
    blew says:

    @ blue
    Ya I am a saxon, I already did my foreign language credits, and I am not the most competitive person in the world so I ruled out sports my senior year already. How do you know I am a saxon? Your kind of scaring me.

    Mama G says:

    I just realized I posted this in the wrong place…. Just a heads-up for Mission Viejo and OC fans: If you’re a member of Lake MV, Kina’s kicking off the new summer concert series on Thursday, June 28 at 6:45 PM. She’s opening for Rachel Sierra and Gregg Rolie (former lead singer of Santana). If you can’t make that, she’s playing at Kaleidoscope on Saturday, July 5th (all ages and free!)
