A Lover...Not A Fighter

Kitten-sitting isn't so bad. Except she thinks she has to nap across my face. And it isn't funny, nee-san!

Shiyomi~

You+me+caramel apples+blanket=Halloween night? Do you approve or disapprove of this equation?

Shi-chan...the cookies weren't that bad. Honest! The unburned ones actually turned out okay!

And neesan...you can stop giving me the silent treatment any day now. Not mature, you know.

How the mighty have fallen.

Neesan's got a boyfriend!

...Who's now walking towards the girl's courts with Akutsu...

Uh oh.

( Nee-chan )

I made cookies, Shi-chan. Come over and be my official taster? ^_^

So can't wait to spend the holiday with my girl. ^_^

So tired...

Nee-san, you know I'm not a slacker but you do need to let me get some sleep sometimes. Nodding off in class isn't cool.

It feels a little weird not being the team manager anymore. I didn't think I'd make captain this year, so that's fine. But playing for once is pretty cool.

Shi-chan, you wanna go for ice cream after practice? My treat. ^_^ I feel like I haven't seen you in ages...has it only been a day?

Heh, could anyone have a better Christmas than me? And the old fireplace worked just fine, nee-chan ^_^. Told ya so.

Even if the cat jumped it.

You got in pretty late last night too, nee-chan. Hope you got the dinner I left for you in the fridge.

Fudomine ranking matches don't come along too often. In just a few weeks I'll guess we'll see if I'm good enough. I've got a good feeling, but nee-chan, you kind of need to quit pummeling me so hard. A guy's gotta rest too, you know?

And guess who's been scoping out your practice again, guys? Don't worry, he just gave me back Shiyomi's hair pin. I'll get it to you tomorrow, okay, Shi-chan?

You are The Lovers

Motive, power, and action, arising from Inspiration and Impulse.

The Lovers represents intuition and inspiration. Very often a choice needs to be made.

Originally, this card was called just LOVE. And that's actually more apt than "Lovers." Love follows in this sequence of growth and maturity. And, coming after the Emperor, who is about control, it is a radical change in perspective. LOVE is a force that makes you choose and decide for reasons you often can't understand; it makes you surrender control to a higher power. And that is what this card is all about. Finding something or someone who is so much a part of yourself, so perfectly attuned to you and you to them, that you cannot, dare not resist. This card indicates that the you have or will come across a person, career, challenge or thing that you will fall in love with. You will know instinctively that you must have this, even if it means diverging from your chosen path. No matter the difficulties, without it you will never be complete.

Take the Test to Find Out.

Just for you, Shi-chan. ^_^

Anyone want a bossy girlfriend? Cheap?

Hey, Aki? Can you come over after practice?


( private )

I am not dating Mori Tatsumi!

I can't believe this...

( private )

Mori-chan wants me to practice swing drills with her tomorrow, maybe play a game after practice.

Blessing in disguise? Or invitation to get my butt whipped?

Guess I'll see you guys on Saturday, Aki, Shi-chan.

Thanks Shi-chan, for the journal. Guess this'll be an interesting way to keep tabs on everyone, huh? Uh, couple things though...

One--So not appreciating the 'no matter what he says' comment on the header.

Two--I'd like to know who exactly took all these pictures of me sleeping and stuff. Please tell me it was nee-san.

So...what to do first. Think I'll check out if there's any other tennis players around using this thing. That might be helpful, right? Right.

And oh hey, Aki-chan. Nice bruise. Hope you left a bigger one on your victim! And remember to keep ice on it, okay?
