I picked this thing up the other day from a friend, and you guys should definitely see it! This thing rocks, seriously!


PS. I hope someone at least will do it for themselves! I haven't heard any good gossip in so long...Am I out of the loop, or is life just getting un-interesting?

It's been getting warmer. A lot warmer. It's really starting to feel like spring -- almost summer, actually. Most of the buds in the garden are unfolding. Maybe the berries will come soon, too? I sure hope so.

But spring always makes me think. I don't know why. But last night I was remembering something Asuma-sensei told me once. He said I could never lose to Sakura anyone in jutsu, or in love. But I think I am losing. Could I be?

He hasn't said anything to me in weeks. Not since...that time. And even then he never said much. I've been busy with the shop since then, after all, my team hasn't gone on many missions. We still don't know who will replace...Sensei...Tsunade-sama hasn't said much about it. So I guess we're biding our time around in Konoha. But back to the point. He never talks to me. Is he talking to Sakura? I sure hope not. But I guess he would be. What am I supposed to do?

I have talk to him again. Have to. I can't let him get away, too. I'm not waiting for him to drop by the flower shop any longer.

I should go now! Gotta make a plan of action! I am NOT going down that easy. Sakura, I'm talking to you.
