I'm so sick of this cold! I've been trying to make use of the time spent inside to catch up on my studies of various magic, and work on my patience... but I just end up trailing off in thought, and want to be some where else. A warm place that's filled with wonder- where the sun lasts for more than just a few hours!

I can't wait for the world to feel alive again!

I'm afraid nothing interesting has been happening in my world lately.. and yet something has blocked me from connecting here. How strange that I'd miss it!

Hey, the cold might be boring, but it also has a lot of fun to it! You just gotta find it!

[angel_promise]

Well, i'm not sure there's much to do here with the cold - there's only so much you can do before freezing! i do like the cuddling, the blankets, the cocoa and tea... so i guess you're onto something!

[they_call_me_sonic]

See? There you go!

...name's Sonic, by the way!

[pikapikapikarin]

It's winter where you are right now? It's just getting into summer here.

[a_new_innovator]

It's cold there? Has it been snowing?

[angel_promise]

Hi Sonic, I'm Rinoa!
thank you for the advice, i appreciate it all!

[angel_promise]

You're so lucky! I miss the ocean, and the beach...! There's not a lot of snow, but we're around the water a lot, so it gets cold!

I'm hoping for an early spring!

[angel_promise]

Mhm! i wish we could get up and move so easily, how perfect!
There isn't been a lot of snow... but some from the north came down and sprinkled the ground.

[pikapikapikarin]

It's pretty temperate in my area of Japan for most of the year. We rarely get snow at times.

But early springs would be great.

[angel_promise]

Snow is okay, but I'm just not personally suited for it... I'm definitely much more about the flowers and sun!
Go swimming for me, please! haha..

[a_new_innovator]

So you can't go elsewhere for the weather?

That's a shame. I've heard its fun so it would be nice if you'd be able to.

[pikapikapikarin]

I can definitely agree with that. Everyone's happier with the sun and flowers out.

I should! I haven't been to the beach yet.

[stillneedawish]

Maybe you need to go on holiday, Rinoa-san.

[angel_promise]

I agree! It's hard not to be, and so easy when it's muted color and cold...

I can't wait to go! New bathing suit season here I come!

[angel_promise]

Well we could travel away I guess! I should bring up the idea of vacation!
Why didn't I think of that...?

[pikapikapikarin]

Yeah, but sometimes the snow brings holiday spirit with it.

It should get warmer soon here, and with any luck, it should be nice enough to go pretty soon. We're sea-side after all.

[angel_promise]

I think you might be right... Wouldn't that be perfect?
And how have you been?!

[a_new_innovator]

It would certainly be nicer than just sitting there in the cold. You and your family or you and your friends?

[angel_promise]

I love the holiday spirit! However it's come and gone and most people are returning to their daily norms.. that always makes me a little sad.
You have to make a date of it, then!

[angel_promise]

Just friends for sure... and my boyfriend of course! I can't think of a better time! How could he say no...?

[pikapikapikarin]

Yeah, no doubt. It would be nice to have it all the time though.

Hmm! Yeah that's a good idea.

[a_new_innovator]

I couldn't think of a way he would say no, getting to go on vacation. And with his girlfriend.

[She wishes she could go on vacation with Lyle, but they are kind of working at the moment]

Where would you want to go?

[stillneedawish]

Mmhm! You could find somewhere nice with a beach and just relax for a while!

Oh, I've been okay. Well... actually that's not quite true. There's been a bit of trouble lately, but I'm working on it, and I'm sure it'll turn out okay. So um, please don't worry about me!

[angel_promise]

Wouldn't it? I'm always thinking that I wish people held the same magic with them year round in their hearts they do when the holidays are around... if only! But then they'd all say those 'special months' weren't special anymore... but I'd rather have a whole year of 'special'.

[angel_promise]

I hope he sees it that way too-- sometimes other things get in his way of thinking... I think.
Is it too unrealistic to say.. That I want to go everywhere? Anywhere and every where especially if he's there.
