Anyways, the first manga I'm going to be reviewing is called "Yorozuha Tokaidou Honpou". "Yorozuha Tokaidou Honpou" (a.k.a Yorozuha- which is what ill be calling it from now on) is scanlated by "Sakura-Crisis.
Story Summary
Yorozuha starts off with the main character Shima, a high school boy (as always) having a nightmare. In his dream he sees his mother and father trapped in a burning building, dying. (ooh, a flashback!) They plead for him to get out, promising that he'll be okay. Then he wakes up.
Right away, he gets a "mission" from his computer which tells him to be at the park at 10 a.m.. He is supposed to meet someone named "Suruga Kaoru". When he arrives, he is surprise to find out that Suruga is actually a guy (kaoru IS a female name after all). If that wasn't enough, Suruga is a famous model who models under the name "Kyou". Shima works for a business called "Yorozuha" and his job (though poorly described in the manga if you ask me) is to be Suruga's detective and find out who's spying on Suruga. (btw, the spy calls himself "Mr. Snowman)
He starts out his job by going to Suruga the next day to Suraga's job, dressed up as a female and pretending to be Suruga's girlfriend (crossdressing!). After he is introduced to everyone, and is watching Suruga work,he senses someone glaring at him, and we find out that this man's name is "Yagami".
While there, he finds out that apparently Suruga is schizophrenic (did i spell that right?). While Suruga is modeling, his "Kyou" personality comes out, and while he is not his "Suruga" personality shines. According to Kyou there are certain times when he is Kyou and certain times when he is "Kaoru". Kyou tells Shima to call him Kyou and Kaoru, Kaoru during the time Kaoru is out Shima doesn't understand very well since both have the same smile. He tells Kyou to do his best and not to run away(?)and then procedes to tell Kyou the story of his past.
2 years ago, his house and the surrounding houses burned down. Shima's father went to investigate, but unfortunately he, along with his wife, both died in the fire. They lied to Shima and told him to leave, and so he ran away, expecting that they would be okay. Unfortunately, they never made it out.
Kyou hugs him and apologizes, and in which tells Kyou that they "won't do anything reasonable, Instead, they'll do their best." (end chapter 1a)
Chapter ib
After finishing up his tears, and finding out that Suruga came back (remember, Suruga's schizo, so b/f he was Kyou), Shima goes over the list of people at the studio who could be possible suspects. He remembers one guy who glared at him when he said he was Suruga's girlfriend. He names that person as a suspect. The suspect comes in then, and asks Shima to leave because he and Suruga have a lot of work to do. Shima agrees and leaves. On his way out, he bumps into another person from the studio, Atsushi. Atsushi warns Shima that they should be cautious (it's not real clear if he's talking about Shima being cautious or Suruga, but i'm guessing Shima.). Atsushi goes on to say that one day he saw a Yagami with a notebook. He dropped it and Atsushi saw a picture of Suruga stick out. He says that it's not likely that Shima will be forgiven for "taking away Suruga" (that's not literally what it says, but that's what he's saying. oy and that finally clears up the confusing i had with who he tells to be cautious beforehand!! it's Shima he's telling to be cautious.). Shima asks for Yagami's business card, and runs away to find Suruga. On his way out, Atsushi and another worker there are talkinga bout Shima. the other worker, a female, is saying how Shima acts like a boy message carrier. Atsushi laughs and says that "she's" (Shima) his type.
In Suruga's office, Yagami is talking with Suruga. He asks Suruga to "Trust him" and says that he thinks that Shima is the one stalking Suruga. Suruga obviously doesn't believe him. We flash then to Shima who is looking over the stuff he has gotten. he has a letter by the criminal (when did he pick that up?! Did i miss something?) and of course, the business card. He decides that the stalker is not Nagami b/c based on the Kanji on the letter, the criminal made a mistake. (As quoted from the scanlations, i'm too lazy to write it out myself) "the criminal made a mistake. This "snowman" thought I would charge Yukinobu (Nagami's first name) of being the criminal. On the contrary, it's a hint. The kanji in the name "yukinobu" isn't that of snow (or in jap: Yuki). It is written with the kanji for "shiawase" (happy). The criminal heard the name Yukinobu, thought it was written with the kanji for snow and thus changed it (umm..ok. maybe if i knew kanji better this would make more sense?). He finds out something more and yells out "you bastard!" before the scene cuts back to Suruga. He yells for Shima (shima btw has long since donned his male clothes again and put a hate on his head so he won't be recognizable as Suruga's "girlfriend". Shima whispers something into his ear, and Suruga's eyes go wide. he tries to ask for more information from Shima, but Shima says good bye and runs away. At that time also, Yagami asks for Suruga, and Suruga comes. Yagami asks Suruga if that was "Yoshitsune-san" (a.k.a Shima) and suruga asks if "the riddle is solved" (referring to his spy i think).
the scene cuts to Shima who runs into Atsushi, and calls him "Mr. Snowman". He hands the letter to Atsushi and says "It was in your bag, right?" (i guess he picked it out of Atsushi's bag- i don't remember that though @_@). Atsushi says it's because he agreed to help Suruga find the culprit, in which Shima replies that there is no postage on the letter. Atsushi gives up and says it was him; then goes on to ask Shima how he knew. Shima goes on to explain about the kanji, and then comments on his perfume. Shima says that the letter smells like the same kind of perfume that Atsushi wears, and based on what he overheard from some of the other workers, it's nearly impossible to attain that kind of perfume. Atsushi is the only one who has it. (so THAT'S the other thing Shima discovered about the letter!). Atsushi gets angry and replies how Suruga is a scapegoat. He gets more work than Atsushi, even though he has a split personality and is less "cooler" than him. He wanted Suruga to stop being a model, but as time passed, Suruga became more and more of a model. Shima replies with "You're not cool" and goes off to say that there is nothing cool about Atsushi. Suruga, however, is really cool. Atsushi tells him to shut up and slams him against the wall. He asks Shima that if he snatched Shima away from Suruga, would Shima cry? He then takes out a lighter and says "It would be too bad if this cute face got burnt". Shima's eyes go wide; he's afraid of fire now, because of what happened to his family, and his mind flashes back to what happened the day he lost his family. He is "woken" up by Suruga who appears to have rescued him from Atsushi. He tells Shima, "You're fine now that I'm here."
Outside, Shima and Suruga are talking; Suraga comments that the case is now over and asks Shima what he's going to do. Shima replies that Suruga will be very busy. his mind flashes back to earlier, where there is a flashback of Suruga kicking the crap out of Atsushi and replie that Suruga is "scary." Suruga grins, and tells Shima that Yagami apologizes for thinking that shima was a suspect (remember, he said that to him after earlier). Yagami didn't believe the whole girlfriend stuff and that is why he glared at Shima. Shima asks what they're going to do about Atsushi. Suruga replies that they don't want the police to get involved, so Atsushi has to seriously think about what he's done. Suruga says that that is a relief, since the competition gets very violent. He then says he wants to get rid of the "Kyou mask". He learned from what Atsushi was doing, how Atsushi used a "different person" to try to get rid of Suruga, and Suruga learned from that. He wanted to escape from who he was, and so cunningly he adopted a new alias whenever he went modeling. Shima replies that escaping is not cunning, rather to be cunning is to run away (er...ok?) and says that "until when you'll stop looking before you..now it's a match. If we flee, we'll be able to mutually strike our back" (what? this makes no sense @_@). Suruga listens intently to what Shima has to say, and then when it's all over, he asks Shima if he can work for him. He says that if he gets the job, he'll cook Shima's meal. shima freezes and agrees. Then gives the name of the company and says "Let's Start again."
My View on translation/story
Phew..all in all, Yorozuha is a confusing little manga. The story is easy enough, but due to the lousy translations, it's hard to pick up all the details. On translations, i'd have to give it a C, since i understood (for the most part) what was going on (though some parts really confused me), or found out later what they had been talking about earlier. But some of the stuff that they translated just didn't make sense, such as Shima's speech on "fleeing= virtue" (or maybe I don't get it cause i'm stupid?)
ART
the art in Yozoruha is very nice. There's nothing special about it, but it is pleasing to the eyes for the most part. Shima and Suruga (especially Suruga) are both very nice looking; it's pretty obvious then that it's aimed at women. Some of the other characters though, such as Yagami and Utsushi are drawn semi-okay, but are kind of ugly (perhaps they hope we'll dislike them more?) and the background art is ok- mostly there's just walls or swirls of color O_o lazy mangaka
Overall, I'd say this manga is worth a shot to read. It has pretty decent art, and cute characters, though the story is kinda weird. It seems like it's going to be a case by case like Yami, but because i only have the first chapter I'm not gonna get too picky with the series yet. (afterall, yami started out kinda boring- and with wacky art- thank goodness Matsu-sensei FINALLY gave hisoka eyes; he really did freak me out). It has amusing characters, as well as deep, meaningful (but incomprehensable) parts.
Based on the whole huggy scene and the "we'll do it!", I'm a littl afraid that this series will become shounen-ai...(I really hope that's not the case.)*shudders*. but we'll see, ne?
(Hurry up sakura-crisis and scanalate the rest of yorozuha darnit ;-;)
Well, i feeling lazy, and I'm sure you've had enough of my rambling for one night, so i think that i will be going. if you want to comment, feel free to leave comments/questions in either my tab or in LJ (i would just have LJ be my anime review page, but it's not as pretty as pitas and not as anime-ish ^_^). I'll be happy to answer any questions or comments you may have. And if anyone wants this manga; once again, it is on sakura-crisis. (The link for SC is on my ryuujin page.).
well, oyasumi nasai, I'm tired ;-;

Lately I've been reading a lot of Kaori Yuki stuff- Gravel Kingdom, Count Cain, Cruel Fairytale. I don't really know why. I guess because it's so accessable? :P
Anyways, I like Kaori Yuki's work a lot. Her art is a bit hard to get used to, but her stories are really fun. I especially really like Blood hound, and Kaine. So sad ;-;
Picked myself up a copy of "The Last Samurai" today. Sugoi wa!! i haven't watched it yet, but i'm really happy i got it. I was really ticked off, because i went to buy it, and the stupid guy told me i needed an id. like i don't look 18? But i guess that's just what they have to do; so i dragged my mom out there and bought it. YAY! anyone want to watch it with me? *grins* You know you wanna.
So, thus ends another day in the exciting life of Traci...yay yay yay...ja ne!!
actually, i have to go study for tests...which is why the ending is so retarded...but...whatever. adios

I should sleep...I really really really should. demo, right now I'm ready to kick myself, either that or keel over from too much stress. Please tell me it gets easier megan-san..please.
Kyle's house was good. saw more initial D O_o Itsuki gets a girlfriend....but she's in junior high *laughs histarically* (did i spell that right?). silly silly man. some reason sometimes he reminds me of a specific person...i guess no one would know who im talking about at all though...considering no one watches ID (And please dont) Good thing too, the cg would have you in fits. it's horrendous.
Also tried out michael's new scooter. Good times. it goes 35 mph...sssllooowww. kyle got a keyboard. He just recently got into techno. scary thing is...he'd probably like gravitation...at least the 1st manga before shuichi meets yuki. rather, he'd think shuichi was cool- till he found out that shu's gay O_o.
yeah...my brain is fried if you havent noticed. I'm stressed, mad at myself and my mom is being a baka. I'm going to bed. ja

wah!! kill bill rocked. Go see it megan-san. if not even for the blood lust fights- go for the pretty katana and japanese speech. Made me love nihongo even more than I already do ^_^. Second comes out pretty soon!! I'm very excited about it.
Anyway, i feel real bad for the Deckingas'. Is anyone going to the funeral? I was thinking about it...but i'm not sure....gah...
well, I see you all later- major props to omikun para the awesome background!! ^__________________^ kamui!!! bishounen ga daisuki yo!!
Well, adios!

Lately, I've been contemplating what to do with this page. I always could turn this into my more indepth journal, and leave lj as a writing journal- but that'd be pointless since i don't write. And besides, no one would be able to comment here (besides the cruddy tag board). And since i'd feel bad about just dropping the site all together (as omi made the lovely layout for me and such) i guess i'm just going to have to start saying more than i would normally say.
Today was a blah day. not much happened. well, work happened. I'm in a semi good mood b/c the slacker girl Allison that i dislike completely, is having her last day tomorrow, and guess what...I WON'T HAVE TO BE THERE!!!
Also, I'm going to megan's this sunday, it'll be nice to see her in the flesh once again.
On a bad note though, I have to start working on my stupid paper and start studying for my placement tests. *snorts* as if renting SAT guides will help with THAT? My mom is soooo stupid -_-. And then there's always the same old arguement about classes and such...well...i'll have to talk to my counselor about that once i get to Cal....maybe we can figure it out together or something (mind you, everything is riding on that...if that fails...I'm doomed).
So my dear friends, wish me much luck as i travel out into the unknown world of College and attempt to sort out my life as well as my internet problem (i could kill that woman right now). And somebody get me a copy of Kill Bill before I get killed for not watching it by the so called "punk group".

mata nai...mata nai...I seem to be getting sick again...*sighs*. This one feels like a sore throat..Traci es muy muy enfadada (or however you spell that).
Saw the famed "Sanzo turns youkai episode"- hilarious! A must see. poor poor Goku-kun. *laughs wildly*. I will admit, i didn't laugh as much as Megan-san, but that's me and my own weirdness. Truth is, I don't laugh. I never laugh unless i force myself or some spur moment. I laugh when i'm happy I guess. But never when i find something funny. Weird, ne? ah well...I guess that's just another Van Laten trait. As much as the "shifty eye" and the "sugare on spaghetti" that makes us Van Laten traits. *grins* and lets not all forget the pointy elbows. hehe
Anyway, I'm trying to think of a good week to have everyone over for ddr and such. I'm still coming up with nothing so far. Annoying thing is that people keep bugging me about when i'm going to have it. I'm just like "I don't know! You tell ME when to have it!"
ah well, such is life i guess....
well, back to megan-san. I'm sure she's quite bored. *looks over at megan grinning evilly and writing in her notebook* then again...maybe not :P. Ah well, adios Amigas!

Kyou wa sugoi!
Sara-chan came over after work and watched Spirited Away with me. watashi~tachi mo D.N.Angel o mita datta. we also watched dnangel) i hope she liked it ^^.
Anyways, Kinou wa Laura to Watashi mo isshou ni kaita datta. (laura and i went shopping together yesterday). Ichi no Saiyuki ga kaimashita. demo, sono manga ga yomimasen. (i bought the first saiyuki, but i haven't read it). koo koo ni yoru da to omoimasu ( i think i'll read it in school). it looks pretty interesting (of course, i've read it online). Plus, it has translations for sound effects. SUGOI WA!!
I find myself becoming more and more addicted to hanakimi *shakes head at self*
I am in the middle of the 6th and 7th manga. (7th b/c when sara was over, i wasn't paying attention so i accidentally downloaded manga 7. By the time i realized it, i was already totally drawn into the stories.) I can't help but love it. Ashiya~san's "problems" are quite amusing.
In a way, it reminds me of DNAngel, how daisuke has to conceal his identity and almost gets caught several times. But this is more realistic. I got to wonder though, shouldn't it seem suspicious to everyone that Ashiya's a girl by the way she acts and how Sano acts towards her. And also, shouldn't Ashiya figured out that Sano knows about her identity now? I mean, you can tell he totally likes her, and how he acts towards her is not how normal guys act (not even in japan i'll bet). hmmmm....
well, whatever. I still like hanakimi ^^. it's very interesting as well as amusing.
now off to bed before i collaps ^^

No post, just some nihongo for today
Long vowel sounds... (like ohayou and hontou)
In Japanese, long vowel sounds are generally written as follows:
a - aa
i - ii
u - uu
e - ei
o - ou
The syllable N
n is a syllable on its own, however, don't confuse it with na, ni, nu, ne or no. For example, ten'in and tenin are two diffrerent words... same goes for kon'nichiwa. In these lessons, I will put the ' in they word so you notice it. ^^ Also, when 'n' is followed by a 'b', 'm', or 'p' sound, it becomes pronounced as a 'm' sound.Seems
Ano hito ga... ... no you ni mieru" or
"kare/kanojo ga... ... to omowareru"
Arashi o kuru...minna, ganbatte! (a storm is coming, so good luck!* *-bad translation)

Just finished watching Arc the Lad. Kawaii!!!! the ending was really cool. Luckily, no one died or anything (besides this one death, but i won't get into that), and my fav. couple in the show are together in the end. gotta feel bad for the girl who liked Clive...*sighs*
Well anyway, worked again today. today was a little better, even though I have to kill Justin for getting his books done- 'tis not fair! Anyway, we had a full load tonight with five people working. Kevin, Greg, Justin, Megan and me. I decided to avoid Kevin as best as possible since he and i don't get along at all. So that means no talking to him or anything, it seems kind of babyish, but I'm not trying to give him the "silent treatment". I just decided that since he annoys me, I won't associate with him (i know..it still sounds the same.. ah well)
Well, tomorrow is not a working day- YAYAYAY. We're not going to fazolis b/c my parents are all busy. maybe I'll take Kyle and Michael out to Borders or something. I can do my homework there and they can go read manga or something. It all depends how much la tarea i get though- you know? Well, should be fun ^_^
Catch ya later

here I am....at megan's house- purdue lafeyette. seventh floor, room whatever. ^^;;;
Anyway, I arrived here around 11ish this morning, it's pretty chilly up here, but when we came it was not too bad. Megan=san, my folks and i all went to Borders where Traci got the first manga of FB and megan bought samurai deeper kyo manga. then we went out to eat.
mostly we stayed inside all day; this is not good weather to be going out... so basically we sat around and watched anime all day ^^. megan-san showe me more of kyo, I'm now on ep 11 and we also watched some Arc the lad. Took a lot of walks too, particularly to Von's where i got 2 new books. One of them is another sequel to the book "Magic Kingdom for sale- SOLD!" and i got a new copy of the first wheel of time book (in hardcover), since my old one fell apart.
Dunno what we're doing tomorrow, but i'll keep you updated, kay?
Didn't run into any Nihonjin speaking nihongo yet, but we DID see some spanish speakers and some Asians (dunno if they were japanese or chinese)
Well, bye!
-Wednesday, February 11, 2004, 03:43 p.m.-
Well, here I am, back from the purgatory, ready to face yet another purgatory (also known as the library). Today started out terrible. My mom woke me up late, I was pissed off from finding out that the gravi download that I had downloading the whole day was in Italian (meaning i understand a total of five words- and that's b/c it's similar to spanish), my saiyuki avi ep. got screwed up, and just generally I am not a morning person. So she and I got into a lot of mini spats this morning ^^;;. Also, then I hit a lot of traffic and even a train. Regardless to say, I was not in a good mood by the time I rached school.
School waas better though. Omi started writing her YnM Hamlet parody (which is great by the way Omi!) and the chapel we had at school was actually funny (I'll tell you about it if you want me to when I get up...err..down or whatever there megan). Dun think I'm going to buy anything from Van's or Borders either- all my money is aimed for DN.
Anyway, back to today; school itself was blah. Camera class we did nothing but worksheets (I sped through those), and in keyboarding class, we started working on the side bar digits (which turn out to be a lot easier to learn than the normal ones for some reason.) It's funny because I know where most of the keys are, even stuff like apostraphe and etc. but whenever we do timings or just practices in class, I do horrible. I fumble over the keys searching for the right one, and I miss keys I normally pick up. My speed goes down by 10 wpm. Not fun. I guess it's just because at home, I can sit however I want and I don't have any pressure like I do there at school. At home I can type as fast as I want- be it 80+ or even just normal 60+ (which is what I'm doing now- lazy lazy me). It's really hard to believe that when I was a Freshman, I couldn't get past 15 wpm, plus a whole bunch of errors. Now as a senior, I can go a whole lot faster, minus most of the errors. Crazy, ne?
Anyway, enough about that. If you haven't noticed already, I changed my links and profile.
I found it kind of pointless to have my fav. anime and manga since most people already know what they are, and they basically are clones of each other (the sections I mean); so that's down.
I also deleted most of my links (no one ever used them, and everyone knew the sites anyway) and put in my scanlation and bitt. sites. This is more for my own use, as it's very annoying to have to go through my favorites. They are really really messed up right now, and half of the links don't work. I'm just too much of a packrat to delete them ^^;;.
Also added current videogame, since I've been getting into videogames again lately, and books for the same reason.
I fixed also my personal links (other journals, archives, etc.) and instead of putting down everyones' live journal pages, i just put my friends page (so if you're reading this Laron and wondering why your page isn't on the links, that's why.).
I like it a lot better this way, and it clears up a lot of unnecessary space. Also helps you guys out if you're missing any chapters or volumes from manga series ^^.
Well, I hope you have a great day and root for me while I am slaving away at work. LOL.

not much to report today. It was Fazoli's night, so around 6:15 we headed off towards Fazolis. Luckily, me, Kyle and michael all left around 7:00.
Kyle should be quite pleased, since he also got a sword- all for ten dollars (if you know anything about swords, that's really really good)! Kyle-kun also taught me the differences between the three swords:
The Wakazashi is the middle blade, which is pretty useful for fighting, but not used as much as the normal, long length katana
The Tanto is the short blade, It isn't used for actual fighting, more for close up stabbing. it's a small blade, and can be mistaken for a dagger
We dunno about the normal length one. Kyle says he thinks the name starts with a "D", but other than that, he has no clue
Okay, okay, gomen minna. I'm sure no one cares about my rants on swords ^^;;; so i continue.
Also went skin hunting today. Found a couple more nice skins for you guys. I really gotta get my disks together so you can get them on your compy. I really hope that you like them ^^;;
Looking forward to this weekend Megan-san!! I was thinking maybe i bring some videogames to play in case you have to go to a class, so i wont' be bored. Either that or I could wander aimlessly. That would be both amusing and fun, but I'm sure i'd get lost or something. I'm bad with directions.
Anyway, talked to my mom, and we're gonna leave early saturday morning. We still need to check the times with you, and she's gonna come monday around 1 to pick me up (our time probably) so tell me if that's cool, or too early or late or whatever. okies?
Well, back to studying for my spanish test tomorrow. wahh...evil spanish ;-;

gahh..i know it's been so long since i updated. I have no good escuse too...other than that i've been tired.
well, it seems the fun is over once again, and now it's time to go back to work. What a major bummer. That new girl will be working again today, if she hasn't called off already. that's what she did last week. Maybe she doesn't like us? I wouldn't blame her. LOL
Anyway, i got some new Weiß Kreuz songs, including one where weiss and saiyuki sing together (it's not that great though). So i have a lot of nice listening material ^^.
Well, time for me to get ready for work. seeya later!!
By the way, notice the kawaii new layout? domo arigatou omi-kun!!!!!!!

my cd burner is lame- very lame. after spitting out two perfectly good cds at me, now it refuses the play the FINALLY burned one well. computers suck.
Anyway, went to the track and field party last night. The track and field party that sort of got transformed into a DDR, track and field and nintendo party. oops ^^;;
it was a lot of fun, even though i did poorly on both track and ddr. I haven't quite figured out yet if it's my knee that's doing it or the fact that i'm out of shape. probably a mixture of both...but my knee hurts really bad today. It won't even cooperate with me. And due to that, i broke my katana stand when my stupid leg gave out...ah well.
Anyway, it's back to work today...fun always ends so quickly, doesn't it? well, at least there's LOTR to look forward to tonight ^^. Hopefully if my mom doesn't change her mind, i'll get to go to that as well. And then nintedo for the whole weekend!! (sara-chan let me borrow her nintendo). should be a lot of fun. ^_^
well, see you later!

whum whum. did nothing today...okay that's a lie. school is kind of dull, but since this semester so far has been really lame and such (and virtually homework free- im sure that will change), I have a lot more time to doodle and write, so that's good.
went online today and looked up Wolf's Rain dub VA. ACC to ANN Johnny Yong Bosch is doing Kiba, and Crispin Freeman is doing Tsume (he did Amon in WHR). Also the girl who did Robin (from WHR) is doing Cher (i can't remember her name). this should be interesting.
Also saw for the first time what Steve Conte looks like. Lets just say he'd never make it with the girls here. While he may have great musical talent, he's lacking slightly in the looks department ^^;;. But that's alright, since it's not what I like him for. ^_^
I'm a pedophile, sadist, masochist and homosexual rolled into one!- Muraki (and he's smiling so happily in this one too). Sorry, a lame ynm fic ^^;;. anyway, here's the link:

Anyway, time to go to bed. seeya later minna!

:: how nintendo are you? ::
YAY! Zelda!
Which Kingdom Hearts character are you?
had a good day today. I watched Kiki's delivery service. KAWAII! ^_^ it was pretty cute. I still like mononoke hime and Spirited away the most, but this is a good one too.
Also got a new page at work on saturday. Her name is Allison Dyer and she'll be working with Justin and me on saturdays. She seems alright, but she did break one of the major rules the first day she was here, so i dunno...
But still, maybe i'm just being too critical of her ^^. I'll wait till i get to know her better before making any assumptions.
Well, that's all for today, ja ne minna!
JA!
