Fundoshi + Ball catching contest = MANLINESS ...or so the latest Gokusen chapters lead me to believe

[ghostdrive]

So I've been anxious about my Speech final for the past two weeks or so, and, of course, my subconscious has been driving me crazy by giving me dreams that revolve around my speech class. YOU SUCK, SUBCONSCIOUS. When I'm stressed I sometimes end up thinking irrational thoughts. Like, "Hmm...if I got sick I wouldn't have to take the final," or, "If I somehow broke my leg, I'd be in the hospital when the final happened." (<----This last one actually came about because I almost took a nasty fall down my steps. ^^;) I know, TOTALLY irrational. Not that I'd ever skip my final, I'm far too prideful to run away from it. But I digress.

Anyways, the dream began in some extravagant, mahogany-shelved, dimly lit room that was obviously NOT my normal classroom for speech. It was like I stepped into some super-posh, alternate universe filled with mahogany wood desks, quill pens, and marble tile. And there, sitting behind the biggest desk in the front on the room, is my teacher Mrs. C. Now Mrs. C is normally the nicest person there is, but in my dream it was like she was the wife of Satan. She smiled in such a way that said she would eat your soul if you crossed her path.

But guess what? Its the day of the final and I'm looking for a way to get out of it. So I make my way to the front of the class and fall to my knees in front of her exclaiming, "My leg's broken!" Suddenly, in true dream world fashion, a cast suddenly appears on my right leg. Poof! Oddly enough, I have no crutches, so I'm just walking around with this cast on, pretending to be in pain. Haha, that completely cracks me up.

Surprisingly, Mrs. C excuses me and I make my way out of the class...where I run into hinoai. (You know your dream is taking an even weirder twist when it includes someone you don't even know in real life.* ^^; I only know here through the Tenimyu and Kimeru and when I occasionally stalk her journal posts she makes.) Apparently her role in my dream was to cheer me up. So we're talking about random stuff and we end up walking to the school store. We peruse the magazine rack when suddenly I spot it. "It" being the latest issue of Newtype USA (which is an anime magazine for those who don't know)...except that the actual content of the magazine resembles that of Hustler. WTF?! (Double WTF! considering it was a school store I found it at.) I'm sure most of you are familiar with Hustler so I won't go into details. Let's just say that this particular issue included my favorite anime/manga characters in all their naked glory and then some. ^^; So I spent the rest of my dream just flipping through the pages and commenting with hinoai over how they looked.

The last thing I remember before waking up is, "Damn, I gotta subscribe to this." XDDDD My dream-self is such a pervert.

*Random: I've also had a dream where I argued with ryutsuki via lj comments. So, so strange. XD

...Hmmm, that ended up being far more drawn out than necessary.

Death Note will be ending soon at chapter 108. Yes! Now I can finally get caught up on downloading it. ~is currently behind more than 50 chapters~

Oh yeah, and the latest Gokusen chapter? Had me laughing so hard that I was actually gasping for breath. Oh man, I love how Kyo seems to be goading Shin into proving his manliness to Yankumi and by wearing a fundoshi no less! XD.
