This entry will remain at the top of my character journal. I encourage people to give me constructive criticism on how I play Kurai. I realize it is an AU community, but I do wish to do this character justice.

I do not want flames, please point out the good as well as the bad, and be courteous in doing so. We're all adults here. ^_^

I started at the university this week. It's fun so far, except for this one guy with dreads I quite literally ran into in the lunch line. He's such an ass, knocking over people's lunches! I kicked him in the shin for it, too. He deserved it!

I'm taking six classes. Religious studies, ancient history, occult studies, demonology, folklore and mythology, and history of religion. I've always been interested in the occult and in folklore, so I think my classes are going to be fun, as soon as they finish telling us how they're going to grade us. How boring.

(OOC: Yeah, I figured Kurai would be highly into occult stuff given she's supposed to be a demon in canon. :P)

What is this bullshit? Do they honestly think anyone is going to believe that drivel? They're blaming us! We're the bad guys! *growls* Ha. Hardly. They can keep up their propaganda, but it's not fooling me.

Arachne and I went back to India for a week. It was refreshing, but I miss it again already. I think I've settled in here well enough though. Alexiel wasn't there! I wish I'd gotten to see her. I missed her.

I think he caught something while we were away, because as soon as we got back he got sick, and then he gave it to me! Thanks Arachne. Next time I get a cold I'll be sure to give it to you. *grr* After stuffing myself with antibiotics, I feel better.

I don't know what to think about this girl I met the other day. Apparently she knows Mahiru and Luke. She's crazy! All she talked about was aliens!

I have a job now! Finally. -_- I work at a restaurant downtown. It's just a few doors down from where Lavi works, too. Waitressing isn't my first choice, and I might end up killing a few customers if they act like jerks again. The customer is not always right, I don't care what anyone says. They can be complete morons. *sigh*

At least I have a reason to leave the apartment now. Arachne isn't annoying me quite as much since I don't see him all the time now. Geez, I wonder if there's anyone in existence who's as high maintenance as he is...

I've been spending some time with Kanda lately. It seems as long as I don't bother him he doesn't mind if I come over. I have to admit I'm a bit jealous of all those instruments he has. Between the two of them they have a keyboard, a guitar, a bass and an electric drum kit. He's let me play with the keyboard a few times, too.

The last time I went over they had a friend in and they were practicing some songs. They sounded really good. I finally met the guy Kanda calls Beansprout. (Sorry Allen, but I think it's kinda cute.) He seems pretty nice, at least, from the short time I was there.

I'm still looking for a job and not having much luck. I think there's a pizza place that had a sign in the door the last time I passed it, maybe I'll try that. At least it's better than nothing, and I'm getting really bored! Sitting here doing nothing is going to drive me insane!

I still feel homesick. I want to go back to India but I know we can't. I miss my friends there, too. Especially Alexiel. She was always so nice to me.

I met my neighbours the other day. Not quite the way I had hoped to meet them though. They didn't even notice me when I boarded the elevator with them, but then they started arguing and then they were making out in the corner. *sigh* That was really awkward. Not only that, but they're two guys. It's not the first time I've seen that, but it kinda surprised me. I have to admit they're both really pretty though, even if the dark haired one seems to be an asshole... At least one good thing came out of it. The redhead said they'd move the bed. Finally I can sleep in peace!

Being out of school is so boring. I think I need to get a job soon, otherwise I'm going to go insane. -_-

I haven't updated this in a while, but final exams were brutal! I spent most of my time studying (in the living room where I couldn't hear the bed banging against the wall... *grr*) I think I did well on them, but still, I'll hold my breath and wait for my final grades. It'll be their fault if I get bad marks! Aside from that, I'm finished high school forever! Finally!

I guess I have to look for a job now. It's better than sitting at home being completely bored. Arachne will probably insist I get one. I'm going to take a short vacation and then start looking.

[ooc: For those who have characters in high school, I consulted a mod and we're going by the Japanese system, so they have a short break (maybe 2 weeks, and then back to school again. ^_^)]

They're so pretty. I think I might go to the park and sit under the cherry trees while I do my assignment for English class. It might help me to relax a bit, too.

Speaking of school, we have another transfer student. His name is Squall. Weird name. Don't know where he's from, either. He's pretty reclusive, from what I can tell.

I hate Valentine's Day. As if I didn't hate it enough already, I hate it even more because I didn't get a wink of sleep last night! The neighbours were going at it ALL NIGHT!

I think I liked it better in India. At least there we had a house and not some tiny apartment with paper-thin walls. Well, it's not 'tiny', it's moderate I guess. It still doesn't feel like home though. I suppose I should just suck it up and get over it. Maybe we'll go back to India someday, but for now I'm stuck here.

We haven't actually met our neighbours yet. Oh my God, they're so loud! It's hard to study when there's a steady knocking against the wall of my bedroom. Not like I don't know what they're doing, but couldn't they do it a little quieter? Or maybe, take the headboard off the bed or something? They've already woken me up a few times! Grr!!

Arachne got lucky, his bedroom is on the other side. He came in yesterday while I was doing my homework, saw the annoyed expression on my face and asked what was wrong. Of course, he came in during one of their rest periods, and then not a second after he asked it started again! He looked at me, then looked at the wall, then at me again and snickered. *Rolls eyes* Oi.

Why must people go to school? It's such a bore! My math teacher is an old hag who can't even teach, and the physics teacher is a moron. Grr. And what's with all this homework? It's like I have four major assignments due every other week, on top of the stupid questions they give us every night. Not to mention the principal keeps giving me grief because I like the boy's uniform. Like Hell I'm wearing a skirt that short!

I swear, Arachne is going to drive me insane one of these days! He hogs the bathroom every morning and I barely have time to brush my teeth and wash my face before I have to run off to school. He came in a few minutes ago and told me to do my homework, and now he's gone out. To Hell with the homework, I'll copy answers off Ruri tomorrow.
