Wednesday, March 27, 2002... And allow me to snarl a little at Mixx for the Clover 4 printing, because while I don't have my own copy of original Clover four (just the last Amie special) I somehow doubt the back spread changed so much in the Japanese copy, knowing Mixx. What the hell is up with BLURRING Ran?!! And the colors look ugly, like they used shadowing or bolding tool on the whole thing. >_<; I don't know, it just annoyed me. //watashi, dou mieru?//10:38 a.m. Wednesday, March 27, 2002... Note to world: DO NOT GO SEE TIME MACHINE. It is possibly one of the worst movies I have ever encountered. It is a mix of truly awful, predictable things, and truly awful things that nobody could ever predict because they ARE that bad. Near the end of the movie, I started laughing incontrollably in the theater. I am not that rude ordinarily to ruin movies for other people, but others should have been laughing with me. *_*; 'Kaasan believes it was three movies seperately written, and then someone decided to mix them all together. Too many storylines, and NOTHING MADE SENSE. I mean, I could tell Emma was going to die as soon as the guy stepped out of the shadows. :D I knew as soon as he left her the second time 'round that she was going to get run over in the street, because IT WAS SO PREDICTABLE. Meanwhile I actually tried to PONDER, if you can't change the past then how come, at the end of the movie when he saw the wasteland, he could travel back in time and blow the place up and "change" it all?! Such utter crap. XD But if you enjoy truly awful science fiction films, then go but don't say I didn't warn you. My sister said she knew it was going to be bad the second time Emma died, and she gave up all hope once the moon blew up and started falling out of the sky in pieces in 2037. *snort* Mom: "*mimicks the girl* Steal? I do not know that word. But I understand words like NIGHTMAAAARE..." All in all, it left me with the feeling simply expressed as, "What WAS that?!!" I mean, if these monsters feed on people, WHY did they sneak up to the homes on the cliff and steal the WATCH? Instead of eating the little kiddie? The hell was up with that leader-guy who controlled the monster's brains? He just kind of came and blew up. Um, anyway. It was bad, trust me. XD; //watashi, dou mieru?//10:00 a.m. Tuesday, March 26, 2002... np: Panikku! - Kodomo no Omocha I am better. And not going insane anymore. And I have stopped thinking too much about Ken and his image song, although still have the mental image surfacing at a healthy rate. And summer art programs are going to make me cry. -The worst one (which has nothing I want, so naturally mom is all gung-ho about it) is cheapest (thus why mom likes) at $1830. June 30-July 28. -The next-worst one (has basically everything I want but you can only take ONE class?!!) is $1860. July 8-26. -Favored Academy program which will let me take everything I'm interested in, is anywhere from $2250-3100. June 22-August 3. //watashi, dou mieru?//03:55 p.m. Tuesday, March 26, 2002... np: Only One - Digimon02 By the time I felt calm enough to stop listening to the song on loop, my mental images had confirmed that Ken was wearing frighteningly tight pants, and molesting his microphone as he sang. *cringe* Moooootto, mooooootto, motto tooku! MOTTO~ MOOOOTTO~! And the way he sings the same words in such different ways is amazing. The first chorus is just the usual Ken-purring, but by the end of the song he's...yeah. Ingrid, you're right about X. ^^ I guess I had been deluded into beliving it was all about the gay, simply because I either don't care about, or actively dislike all the straight couplings in the series. ^^; Well, except for Karen/Aoki, that one I like but it's doomed anyway (I loathe Arashi and don't think she deserves Sorata for a second, I don't really care one way or the other for Yuzu and Kusanagi, and if I were running the CLAMP universe, Hokuto would have lived and she would have run off with Nokoru. Not only would that give me joy, but Kakyou would shut up). And thanks for the encouragement about art school. *hug* Will blog more when I get home, after a long hellish day of term paper last-second completion. //watashi, dou mieru?//06:58 a.m. Monday, March 25, 2002... np: Only One - Digimon02 Okay. Must. Calm. Down. Yes. Let the mental images this song provokes run freely through my mind. *screams mindlessly* I HATE MY HISTORY TEACHER I SWEAR I HATE HER, STUPID WOMAN DUMB TEN-PAGE TERM PAPER FORGET HER AND HER STUPID FORMATTING AND SPACED ONE-INCH THERE AND SPACED TWO-FIFTHS OF AN INCH HERE AND ALL THE REST OF IT. ....okay, time for fangirl music therapy. Kitto kiiiitto, kiiiitto sou sa, kitto hitori shika inaaaaaaaai~~~ jibun wo kono yo de~ Mooootto, mooootto, moooootto tooku, motto, MOOOOOOOOOOOTTO sora no hate made, kaknuketeiku, ONLY ONE~~ I'd play the kaimono carol, but I think it might damage my brain with the state I'm in now. So I'll settle for...er...yeah, this Ken. Who...is just...interesting-sounding in this song. I'm not sure how to describe it. Well, I could say "slutty", but...yes. Yes, he sounds like he comes out of a truly terrible band that wants to be evil and sexy but pretty much just ends up seeming ridiculous. Not that I don't love this song. I mean, you have to love it, if for nothing else but the cackle at the end. *_* Okay, now that I've played the song twice, song therapy is over, back to making my brain explode. //watashi, dou mieru?//09:26 p.m. Monday, March 25, 2002... Kikyo-chan...Seira ya Meimi no koto wa, atashi mo kizukanakattan da. ^^; Maa. Art school...um. See, my big problem is that unless you go to a (prestigious) art school, it's harder to get internships which will then lead to happy jobs. Now, my mother is the total opposite of me, and blah blah she's put so much money into my Japanese education (it's not that much; yeesh. she sent me to Japan for two weeks ages ago, and paid for a weekly tutor later but I didn't learn anything from her; she hasn't touched this supposed "expensive education" for two years now) so up till this point we had this unspoken agreement that I would try to go to some nice well-rounded college, with both Japanese and art majors. Now the big problem is this: I don't like big generalized schools much. I also want to stay in California, because I like the area and my ideal situation is one where I'm close enough to home to drive there if I get dreadfully homesick, but still far enough away to have a healthy distance. *_*; So I got my little list of options of small, private colleges with these two major choices, which meant my choices are basically ZIP. A few, yeah, but all tiny places nobody's ever heard of since I asked for small places! Small places = never heard of = I suspect harder to get internships. So somewhere in these last few weeks, I realized, what the hell am I doing? Yes, I love Japanese, and I could definitely make a living using it somehow without many complaints. But it's not my first choice. So my thought was basically, darnit, I want to go to art school. Well my mother, who we should realize has never supported me in any artistic thing ever (besides that "we're your parents and we'll support you in anything you do" obligation), didn't exactly like the idea. In fact she didn't like it at all. And she told me basically that she wasn't gonna allow me to go to art school, because I needed a well-rounded education instead of "pursuing some worthless life where you'll never be able to get a proper job and be happy". My mother is also rather stupid in this matter because she doesn't understand what art fields exist in the world today AT ALL, she honestly believes you have to be like, a classical painter. O.O;; Yeah. Sure. I'm actually interested in graphic design and that sort of thing. Anyway, it doesn't really matter that much usually to me; my mom and I are really different...she never takes any interest in my talents/hobbies/etc. I, um, can't even remember the last time I showed her something that I drew, because she never cared so I stopped bothering years ago. As a result she's sure I'm pretty talentless but art is a worthless field in her opinion as a whole. ^^;;; Um. So. I signed up for portfolio class next year too, so we shall see how this works out, but I think things are going to get ugly. =_= My mom's big thing is that she always has to be right, but the problem is she always IS right (or else is just too persuasive to make me think otherwise O.O;)...and it's one of the few qualities we share. So we clash a lot, but I always lose. ^^;; Maa. But I think as far as college goes, people usually end up where they're meant to be. And I'm still young and it's scary to want to make such a decision and have to cling to it against my mother's better judgement, but I think going to art school will make me happy. I'm not sure though. The idea of breathing, sleeping, dreaming art all the time seems like a beautiful thing to me. I want to devote myself to that. I want to be doing something worthwhile, rather than spending the rest of my life doodling in the margins. But, I don't want to argue this unless I'm sure about it. So. I want a summer program this year, simply put. ^^ Not only will it help me improve in ways I need to, but it'll also be the test to see if I can live art in all ways of my life for a large part of my summer. I think I'm up to it, but I've got to be sure. I just wish these silly things weren't so expensive. I'm crossing my fingers that I can get into somewhere, but must start looking now. I'm still sparkling constantly at the Academy program but...expensive. The big problem isn't so much the boarding costs ($1600-$2300 or something; that's just too large a gap for estimate =_=) but how I'm going to pay for transportation, food, etc. (And left with money like that...um. I would be dropping down to J-town every chance I got to spend food money. XD; I don't trust myself not to starve myself when in the same city as a Kinokuniya.) Sore ni, Furuba wa suki datta? Suteki na anime to omou yo. I think it was one of the top three anime in Japan this year, and manga won Kodansha's Annual Award for best shoujo manga. *_* I love it...best casted show I've ever seen. *passes out from sparklies* I'm actually in love with Yuki though, with Akito and Aa-ya close behind. *evil fangirl cackles* Oh, Bell, Les made some offhand comment about the Furuba cast all dying at the end, and I took her seriously and complained about this logic. She replied that she meant it as a joke, and pointed out reasonably that "Aa-ya is just too gay to die". XD So. Huge term paper worth three test grades. Due Tuesday last period. In a major record for me, not ONLY am I doing MORE than the minimum work, but I started it way early. *_*; I think I have two more pages to do for the paper itself, and then bibliography and endnotes. Can't wait to finish the silly thing, even though I'll probably flunk no matter what. :D Sleep. //watashi, dou mieru?//12:12 a.m. Saturday, March 23, 2002... Blah. Didn't go to Mitsu today (Kix-chan ;_; aitakatta no nii~~) but got home and found a pamphlet for a Philly Fine Arts Summer Experience in my mail. Now, 'Kaasan totally flipped out over this because it would eliminate housing costs, since I could (assumedly) stay with my grandparent, BUT he lives nearly two hours away from Philly so I doubt it would work out as well. (Hah. Is kind of weird; wrote "grandparents" and "they" before I realized. Odd, getting used to that...) Well, I would have gotten excited except the program I'm interested in is at the Academy. XP They offer an absolute ton of choices in summer courses, so I was really excited...but this one in Philly only had four choices and you had to take them all. I absolutely hate painting since I feel sort of...ah...not in control with a brush in my hand. I guess it might change with practice, but I've hated every painting I've ever done. ^^; And I've only done sculpture once, and I didn't mind it but wasn't crazy about it either. Then there's printmaking, and if it's anything like the printmaking we did in my art class this year then ugh. Which leaves, I think, basic drawing class, which is all well and good but I don't intend to spend four weeks going to these classes I'm not absolutely crazy about. *_*; I'm sparkling at the Academy's program, but the housing is kind of expensive...but more than that, it'd be expensive just to live in SF for six weeks. *cringe* But I really love the look of their program, it has lots of things I'm interested in...and I want to take classes for them just so I can see what I love. You have to take three classes, and my main choices are comic illustration, graphic design, basic drawing, photography, and film. The last two are pricy so probably none of that. Blah. I just don't want to sit around doing nothing this summer. Of course I'll be slightly miserable, since I want to spend time together with Les before she sets off for college...but last summer it was easy to tell that all of our families' schedules are too diverse. We barely spent any time together at all, so I want to get out, do something, get into some program. Wheee...off to translate stuff. //watashi, dou mieru?//07:25 p.m. Friday, March 22, 2002... Oh, of course. There's straight in X, I just didn't bother dealing with it since I was only talking about the gay. :D Of course there's more "concrete" straight couples in X. I just simply chose not to deal with them since I wasn't really talking about them. :D But see, you're exactly right about Tokyo Babylon. That manga is (I personally think) the best thing CLAMP ever did. It has actual plot, something truly interesting happens in every chapter, every case has a twist that never failed to suprise me. :D It was trying to tell its audience something every chapter, and CLAMP dished out intelligence and fanservice in equal servings. But I don't see any of this similar brilliance in X. It goes for chapter after chapter, with more foreshadowing than story, and fanservice fanservice fanservice. I mean, the tying of the tie scene. Sure, maybe once a year, something interesting happens- once every December or so? ^^;; But in this manga, there really aren't any two-sided relationships. Blah. You could argue SubaruxSeishirou pretty well...um...KamuixKotori maaaybe (I never concerned myself much with them, I haven't read early volumes in a while). And then there's SorataxArashi. ^^; Argh, must run to school~ *flee* //watashi, dou mieru?//07:20 a.m. Thursday, March 21, 2002... Ah~...but CLAMP series are really made up of fandom, really. Their whole sales pitch comes from the fact that they feed the fangirls all this service...hora hora, if you really get technical, you can say there's no real relationship between any characters at all, except SeishirouxSubaru, since they're the only two characters where it's actually been said that one is in love with the other (ah, I'd throw in FuumaxKamui just for good measure, simply because you can only lick someone so many times before you just have to say "we're not 'just friends'" :D). Deshou? But I think most people would SAY that yeah, Kamui does have at the very least a crush on Subaru, and yeah, there was something there with Fuuma and Sei-chan, and there's at least a glimmer of a something with KeiichixKamui. I feel like there's more gay that I'm forgetting; I think Sorata would be Kamui Fangirl Bait except CLAMP made perfectly sure to assert him as Very Straight when he appeared. (That, and he's not as pretty as the rest.) Oh, duh, Kakyou; but that's even worse fanservice than the rest, but most of my friends agree that Kakyou is just in constant need of hugs, and if he had a choice besides Fuuma, that would probably not be the person he was clinging to. //watashi, dou mieru?//02:56 p.m. Thursday, March 21, 2002... Eh. Lied about the MT update; I'll take care of it tonight when I get home. :D I wanna finish the rest of Gravi vol 5 this weekend, but doubt I'll have the time or energy to do so...I did about eleven pages of track 19 (jumping around the chapter to the easy bits ^^;) before I started screaming at Sakano and his needlessly complicated speeches about record sales and N-G and the like. :D But want to get stuff done this weekend for sure- I want to work more on the Pretear manga, but the first chapter of volume 3 is like...around 100 pages?!! ^^;; I work and work on it but never seem to get anywhere. ^_^; Bah. Fine arts test today, math test tomorrow, five-to-ten-page term paper due Tuesday. _o_ So these'll be some of my projects during spring break. They are: 1. Finish Bound in all forms (sketch! ink! Photoshop!) 2. Finish all skins started (Sasame, Youzen, Utena series) 3. Translations- Gravi, Pretear, I*O*N, Wind-Up Tina. :D 4. Get strawberrymoon.net main page up, work on content. Nya, time for class. XD //watashi, dou mieru?//07:55 a.m. Wednesday, March 20, 2002... Exactly, exactly. No series should be completely about the gay. :D I mean, a steady 75% is okay though. But I actually think I should get something plotless that's completely about the gay, because...I mean, I can't think of anything I have that doesn't have some kind of plot- oh, wait, nevermind...somehow X slipped my mind. That manga is all about the gay...I mean, not counting anything X takes from Tokyo Babylon. I agree; there's more to Tokyo Babylon than the gay. :D But glancing at my manga shelves, pretty much everything I own smacks suspiciously of "plot". Sigh- I hope my fangirlism makes up for this in other ways. The only series I'm iffy on is Gravitation, which...uh...just doesn't have a plot in the common sense of the word, and yet is still very good. On that note, anyone who visits MT for Gravi translations can check there tonight for an update- I had the sudden urge to translate the chapter from vol 5 with "Sayonara, Aizawa-san..." Because I love Touma, and that entire chapter with him is just too sparkly. If you notice, the translations I do for Gravi seem to be rather heavy on the Touma. It's not just because of my Touma-worship; it's also that I take special care when translating him. Because he's so amazingly classy that I try extra-hard to make him sound as such in English. :D He's fun. Though I hadn't read vol 5 in a while- eek. After coming from around eleven, where Touma is looking about thirteen or fourteenish...I mean, in five, he almost looks his age. ^^;;; I think I'll work on doing the rest of that tankoubon tonight...those chapters are easy, since I've watched the anime episodes so many times that the dialogue comes easily. :D //watashi, dou mieru?//04:06 p.m. Tuesday, March 19, 2002... Neesan and I pulled up to our cul-de-sac today to see a dead body in the middle of the road. Really? No, not really. WHAT THE FUCK ARE KIDS UP TO NOWADAYS THAT THEY HAVE THE FREE TIME TO TAKE CLOTHES, and I mean shirt, pants, shoes, bike helmet etc, tie them all together stuffed with dirt, and LEAVE THAT SHIT OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD TO SCARE THE FUCK OUT OF PEOPLE. I got out and tried to move it before 'Kaasan came home, but was a few seconds too late, since she freaked out too. Fuck. Kids these days. //watashi, dou mieru?//05:17 p.m. Monday, March 18, 2002... Okee, my joy with the Utena showing is okay, but not great. Some girls really are stupid. And I mean, really. You have to REALLY make me annoyed to have the words, "Darnit, Kathy, it's not ABOUT the gay!" to leave my lips. Yeah, we'll see if I ever declare that something isn't all about the gay again in the next few years. (But hey. Utena is NOT about the gay. If I had to say anything about it, I would define it as...as a series perk.) I'm beig kind of harsh on them, though, since Utena is a show that I think is hard to watch with a week between episodes...and hard to comprehend on the very first viewing. I think it was my fifth (?) time around that things started to click completely into place. ^^;; //watashi, dou mieru?//04:41 p.m. Saturday, March 16, 2002... ....*dies laughing* A shame they didn't get to volume four, with A and all. That's hilarious; I especially liked the adaptation of the Clover poem at the end. XD //watashi, dou mieru?//02:06 p.m. Saturday, March 16, 2002... About X... If they just keep killing people off in TV, you realize it'll have been a twenty-six episode series that really didn't do anything but arrive at the same conclusion as the X movie. Bah. Les and I agreed that X is just kind of "..." these days. And I'm off to draw, since I feel productive. //watashi, dou mieru?//01:27 p.m. Friday, March 15, 2002... Another thing for Yami- I'm guessing with the mention of Muraki for the first time in who knows how long, that he will appear in the Gensoukai arc soon enough. But with the story plodding around at the pace it's going, I think most people have at this point (by having more foreshadowing crammed into the story than is fair) figured out their opinions on the kankei between Muraki and...certain people. XP If what's going on isn't what I'm thinking is, I'll eat my arm. Blah. Muraki is the only thing that can save this sorry, disconnected, insufferably dull arc of a manga now. ^^;; Bring him back, damnit! With Ukyou in tow, preferably- I just want to see the woman twisted enough to love him... And stupid people annoy me. *_*; Someone on one of my MLs was bitching for a long, long time about how the YnM anime left out Gensoukai? If I recall, Gensoukai had barely begun when the anime took off. And yeah. I'm going to shut up and go reread the Kyoto-hen for the zillionth time now, thanks. ^^;;; //watashi, dou mieru?//10:16 p.m. Friday, March 15, 2002... Finally forced myself to catch up with Yami Gensoukai arc recent events. All I have to say is...OH MY GOD stuff is even *HAPPENING*. And you know, Hisoka? Tsuzuki? Those main character things? They're AROUND. I never liked Gensoukai. ^^;;; It's still confusing the hell out of me though, but in this whole arc Matsushita's storytelling skills are kind of...bad. You don't just dump the two main characters of a manga in favor of Really Cool-Looking Shikigami! and reduce them to...cameo appearances. Recent chapters gave some more angst between Hisoka and Tsuzuki though, so it's happy. And the whole Kurosaki family thing is starting to sort itself out, as are things with Kurikara...but....Kijin is just confusing mee... Eh. I want Muraki back. And Oriya, and to meet Ukyou...and angst besides Hisoka's. Just for once, explain something about someone else. It isn't that I don't love Hisoka, but having his angst constantly shoved in my face, yelling, "SEE?! HIS FAMILY WAS A BUNCH OF TERRIBLE PEOPLE!!! PITY HIM! WATCH THE ANGST!!! ...have I distracted you from the fact that we know absolutely ZIP about the rest of the cast's pasts or overall mysteries? No?" which is answered by, "Well! Well! HAH! Since you noticed nothing is happening with the main cast, let's throw in some... MORE SPIFFY-LOOKING SHIKIGAMI! ...did the incest make you forget nothing's going on? No? Damn." //watashi, dou mieru?//07:20 a.m. Thursday, March 14, 2002... *sulk* I suck at playing Go. I know practice makes perfect, and I don't mind getting the stuffing beaten out of me on Yahoo!Games, but when my opponent wants to chat at the same time, it gets painful. I don't need them to point out all my pieces are gone and there's no way to take territory anywhere. ;_; It just adds insult to injury. Nice person to put up with my awful skills to the end, though. ^^;;; //watashi, dou mieru?//03:57 p.m. Thursday, March 14, 2002... What kind of a search query IS that? Ew... //watashi, dou mieru?//03:10 p.m. Wednesday, March 13, 2002... np: Toki ni Ai wa - Utena Adolescence Mokushiroku I was joking with Ali a few days ago about splitting the Pretear cast up to live in genki yaoi/yuri communes. Because while I like the straight pairings in that show a lot, for some reason I just have this nagging urge to slash some characters senselessly. Or not so senselessly. I had about a minute left on Pretear episode 11, and I came home today and watched that last tiny bit... Meimi: *jiiiii* Takako: *hohoho* Mawata: .... Takako: *chuuuuu* Meimi: O.O ... O.O ..... XDXDXD !!!!! I LOVE THIS SHOW!!! THAT WAS *SO* RANDOM!!!! Well...I was amused, anyway. That episode was great though; I went through taking screensnaps to skin, and I only have the playlist left on a Sasame one. Actually, all the screensnaps are of Takako and Sasame. Or Takako. Or...Sasame. ^^;;; //watashi, dou mieru?//10:09 p.m. Wednesday, March 13, 2002... Meg, nobody would dot at Furuba yuri. Unless you mean Tooru/Kisa, which would make me cry. As for Hana-chan, it's so obviously there. And for Shigure/Aaya...I can't believe I didn't tell you at some point (maybe before you saw the show) but even so aren't you glad you were suprised? XD And I did warn you about the Momiji episode, I'm rather shocked it didn't make you cry the first time around. I think that's the only episode in the whole series that made me actually cry, except I might have gotten a little teary-eyed during the last two episodes (SEKIIII~~!!!) ...don't remember...do you have it all now then? If you're up to Kisa you must be almost done. My-chan~~!! *squeak* Thank you thank you thank you thank you for the package~~~!!!! *glomp* I love it!! And that's the exact size multiliner I wanted!! Thin but not thin enough to...eh, cave in (my lovely 0.05 is wider than my 0.1 now *shiku*)!!! Love it!!! *kirakirakira* Imadoki! Kouki! Cuteness~~~!! Thank you thank you thank you~~!!! I actually had a super day today- we got assigned our fine art semester project. Now ordinarily projects are Bad, Bad Things, no? But I heard about this project ages ago, and ever since Daisy told me what she did last year, I had my heart set on doing this project. *fufufu* It's about analyizing artwork- any kind...the project is actually pretty open... I know I'm obsessive, but doing a project on the Utena movie is the most fun thing I've ever thought of. XD The evilness that's going to come from this!! Surely, it will be the first project I've ever wanted to start early! It WILL be a spectacular project, yes it will. It's a four-page paper about background, creators, and the work itself (I could write my life away about that movie; I wonder if we can do more than four... >.>;), but Daisy (who just did her project on anime as an art form) handed in a video for extra credit. I'm planning on messing around with things in Premiere (if I can figure out how to use it properly *cringe*) to do a kind of movie-report. Wheee~!! *evil cackles* Definitely...obsessive. I'm terrible, aren't I. But I love that movie so so so much. //watashi, dou mieru?//03:28 p.m. Monday, March 11, 2002... np: Toki ni Ai wa - Shoujo Kakumei Utena Adolescence Mokushiroku Today was one of those days I felt glad Ali and I made the anime club. Simply said, the majority of our club is made up of friends who simply joined because we needed members desperately. It's hard for them to follow the flow of some series. Considering that Marmalade Boy and CLAMP Gakuen seemed "plot-heavy" for them, I had my doubts about showing Utena. We started the series at the beginning of the year. We're four episodes away from the end now (there was much shuffling of burned episodes for Black Rose saga). And I was positively squeaking with joy today. Because I just thought the show was going to be too hard for them to comprehend at all (I mean, please, they couldn't follow Marmalade Boy), but I chose to show it this year because we watched nothing but MB last year, and it drove me maaaad. And today we plowed through a long lunch period with the last Nanami duel, the recap episode, the episode explaining the Anshii/Dios backstory, and the episode before Touga's last duel. When I turned off the TV and said, "Thanks, see you next week," there were outraged screams. At our after-school joint meeting, there was begging to let us go on watching (which wasn't possible). And everyone coming up to me and saying with glowing eyes, "It's getting really good." It made me feel sparkly. I also felt sparkly as people gasped, "I understand this one!" during the shadow play in the Touga episode (the one with the "Casanova playboy sailor" or whatnot). Sparkly until... Kathy: *squeak* I get it! I get this one!! Meimi: Yeah; I think it's the easiest one in the whole show. Tara: I liiiike understanding this one~~ Everyone: *nodnod* Geri: I don't get it. Everyone: ....... Kathy: You've got to be kidding me. //watashi, dou mieru?//06:25 p.m. Sunday, March 10, 2002... np: Ghost of You and Me - Les' Library of Love mix CD for Subaru and Sei-chan I love Les. Really. It occured to me that...no wonder I wasn't cheering up before. While the fangirlism of the CD (sixteen tracks of S&S goodness) initially perked me up, I've been playing it on loop. Constantly. The CD tracks, in order, their relationship from TB to December 2000 Asuka. But only the first three tracks are TB fluff. ^^;;;;; Too much angst. But while the CD has suggestions from all of us, Les picked out some really good ones. I hadn't heard this before, but she and Ali picked it out. "I didn't mean to fall in love with you/ but baby there's a name for what you put me through/ It isn't love, it's robbery/ I'm sleeping with the ghost of you and me..." So yes. Sixteen tracks of Subaru and Seishirou (mostly) AAAANGST. ...I'm such a fangirl. //watashi, dou mieru?//10:08 p.m. Sunday, March 10, 2002... np: Unmei wa Utsukushiku - Sailormoon *hugs back to Ingrid and Janaki* Thanks so much. I seriously felt all warm and fuzzy inside thanks to you. ^^ I'm feeling a lot better, but that might just be because I avoided anything school-related through the weekend (I did get halfway through my driving handbook testing though, so did not waste weekend). Tomorrow is huge math testo and finishing (er, starting) huge chunk of history term paper preparations due Tues. But everyone's been so sweet to me since my temporary loss of sanity, so I feel a lot better. *hugs to everyone who cheered me up* Loooove. Notes to self: return pencil, interview for Friday project, research for paper after school, do not strangle anime club during Utena showing, answer email, translations. //watashi, dou mieru?//10:08 p.m. Sunday, March 10, 2002... np: Love Breaks... - Shin Shirayuki Hime Densetsu Pretear AHAHAHA. I found this on mp3 at LAST, and didn't even need to sell my soul for it or anything. *_* I found Hayate and Kei's songs too; I don't really care much for Gou so I can live without his song for now. :D And Kei's song...oh...my...I absolutely can't believe that song. He's singing about...makeup and eyeshadow. Kei in the manga was fine; why did they have to change him so much in the anime? He went from being pretty to...er, wearing tights. And high heels. But it doesn't really matter. Because I have this song, and Sasame has the most gorgeous voice ever, and he is angsting prettily. Doujinshi? If I come up with an idea, maybe a one-page kind of thing. At the very least a chibi fanart of Beachtime Fun Akito and Shigure. Perhaps with a half-drowned chibi Yuki in the background. XD Kikyo-chan, the Rekka picture was GORGEOUS~~ *_* Thank you thank you thank you~!! Her eyes are green, by the way ^^;; sorry about that? Tonikaku, okage de genki deta yo~ :3 //watashi, dou mieru?//02:01 p.m. |
