It’s been a reaaally long time. I ought to write once in a while.
\nA senior-like senor, this is Chihiro.<\/p>\n

I’m sure there has<\/em> to be some guy out there who pronounces “senior” as “senor”.
\nWell, there’s me. Forgot in all my thoughtlessness.<\/p>\n

…It’s not like I was being lazy with writing on the blog. It just smelled like trouble. Things like printed media, rehearsals, commutes for shows, the monthlies… I had a lot going on.<\/p>\n

Watching Kiki’s Delivery Service<\/em><\/a> the other day, it reminded me of how I wanted to become a witch. Well, back when I was in kindergarten anyway. I really<\/em> wanted to become one.<\/p>\n

But, you know, nowadays I’ve already grown \u25cbnge<\/em>, so I’ve given up.<\/p>\n

I think some among you might be confused right now, so let me just clear that up for you.
\nYou put “chi<\/em>” inside the \u25cb, not “ma<\/em>“. (Chinge<\/em> = penis hair, mange<\/em> = vagina hair<\/span>)
\nDon’t get me wrong… it’s just that it’s easy to make a mistake there, so be careful.
\nIf I had man<\/em>\u25cb down there, I’d be going all “mahariku maharita<\/em>“\u00b2<\/strong><\/span> right about now.<\/p>\n

As a child, a jedi knight
\nIn middle school, the captain of Space Battleship Yamato<\/a>
\nIn senior high school, a Spriggan<\/a> archeologist
\nIn college, a researcher for the secret military agency NERV<\/a>
\nAs a graduate student, a really cool adult
\n…is what I wanted to become.<\/p>\n

And right now… I want to become John Rambo.<\/p>\n

I wonder if you’re all still hanging on to your dreams.
\nFor me, my dreams all disappeared completely as if they were mere bubbles.<\/p>\n

A life of non-committed half-assedness spent lying around and shitting your pants — though fun — is something you can let someone else do instead. Before the chances of you realizing your dreams are non-existant, you should chase after them with all your power.<\/p>\n

Don’t join the class of dropouts like me.
\nI pray that you consider what I’ve just said.<\/p>\n
