I wish I knew how to make pretty pretty blog layouts... I feel so inadequate.
Blah, random anime rant

I just have to make a comment relating to Sarah's recent entries... pretty much all of my friends got into anime by seeing it on TV first, or by having a friend who had seen it on TV first then introduce them to it. I myself got into it through the horrible Sailor Moon dub, back when it was on USA in the morning. I don't like what the censors did to it, but I acknowledge that if it weren't for SM I don't know if I ever would have found it and liked it.
Also, as far as I know, because Bebop is aimed at older audiences and shown so late at night, primarily adults and teenagers who already have at least some interest in anime are watching it... could be wrong though ^_^*
Nothing much.

I really don't have anything specific to talk about, but I haven't blogged in quite a while and feel like I should. School has started up again, and seems to be going okay. I don't know if I should have ever joined that art class... I have fun, but once I start thinking too hard about how much I really do suck at drawing, I start getting a tad depressed. Computer Science is stupid, as expected. Shakespeare should be interesting, and Japanese is fun, as usual.
Hm... I've been thinking about Otakon cosplay lately. Jason and Andy are planning on going as Alucard and the Scary Catholic Priest Guy from "Hellsing", and I might go as the main chick, whose name is, I think, Victoria. I don't particularly like her, though, and I'm not sure I want to cosplay as someone I don't really like. I have nothing against her; she's just not terribly interesting. Still, I think I could pull it off okay, so maybe I will.
Joe is going to Otakon after all. Ugh. Hopefully none of us will snap and strangle him.
Um...

Well, Sarah, this is your fault. o.O

I'm listening to "Blue", the final ending from the last episode of Cowboy Bebop. I've heard this song a million times by now, and it's just weird that it still gives me that funny feeling, like the bottom of my stomach has fallen out. At least I don't bawl any more, I guess. ^_^*
Merry Christmas ^_^

Now, I usually get very few of the things on my list for Christmas. This year, however, was an exception, and so,despite the fact that I seemed to have caught some horrible 24-hour flu bug that wiped out half my family and made me throw up FIVE TIMES yesterday, it was really one of the best Christmases ever.
Well, to start with, my parents bought me the Dreamcast. Well, to be fair, they got it for both me AND my brother, and got Drew Jet Grind Radio, which he loves (knew he would) and me Grandia II, which I haven't played yet. My dad said he looked for Skies of Arcadia and couldn't find it, and the guy at GameStop said Grandia was good. Alex says the same, so we'll see. ^_^ I have to go try to pick up Capcom vs. SNK at some point. I will practice with Benimaru and some day maybe I will be able to kick Alex's ass...
The real surprise, though, came at my grandparents'. My grandma looked at my huge list of domestic manga and bought me almost everything on it. I now own Clover vol. 2, X/1999 volumes 1 through 6, and Sorcerer Hunters volumes 3 through 6. (I didn't even know SH 6 was out yet). Viz and TokyoPop must really like me now.
My mom also gave me money for a new winter coat, so I won't have to wear the warm-but-ugly pink one any more. I'll probably go out shopping today or this weekend. Well, that's really about it... I have LOTS to read now, heh.
Hm...

Well, looks like I pissed off one of my friends. The thing is, I don't even feel that bad about it. Crysta has been getting on my nerves more and more over a period of time, especially in the last year. Does she honestly think she's not egotistical and self-centered? I don't know, I guess not. She's also been getting increasingly racist, which I don't think she realizes. I'm just sick of her talking about how stuck up Chinese people are. I mean, yes, the people she's describing on her mailing lists ARE stuck up, and they ARE Chinese, but then she starts ranting about how she doesn't like Chinese people because of that, and it pisses me off. I guess I should tell her, but it seems like every time I try explaining things like that she just gets mad and thinks I "don't understand". Well of course I don't. Geez.
And I still think she started hanging out with Joe just to spite all the people who think he's annoying. And, although I don't want to strangle him or anything any more, and even feel a bit sorry for him since I found out about his crappy family life, I STILL think he's an idiot.
I wish I could talk to Alex. I treated him really badly a lot of the time, but at least he always tried to understand why. I haven't seen him online since he went home, and it kind of worries me. I hope he's doing okay...
I want one for my very own.

Saw Lord of the Rings earlier this evening. I've got mixed feelings about it, and am too tired to say much in detail; generall I thought it was pretty good, though there were parts I thought could have been better.
What I want to know, though, is where I can get my own elf-boy - more specifically, a Legolas. Yum.
Making the Grade (and the lamest blog title ever)

My WMU fall semester grades just got here right this second, and I didn't do too badly! I got an A in Children's Lit, Bs in Advanced Fiction Writing and Japanese, and a C in British Literature I. I was really worried I was going to get a D in Brit Lit, but apparently I did decently on my exam. I was worried about a C in Japanese too, and pulled a B, and the other two grades were exactly what I expected. So, in other words, I am happy. ^_^
Man, they get bizarre.

Last night I dreamt that I was driving a whole carload of friends somewhere, but Andy, who was wearing his Vash coat, insisted on sitting on the dashboard. I refused to drive with someone on the dashboard - and don't ask me how he fit, either, it defied all laws of spatial relation - and so everyone started getting irritated at me. Then there was another scene where I found an abandoned dog at a park and was trying to convince my parents to let me take it home. It was such a nice dog! It obeyed all my commands and never barked and was really skinny and I wanted to bring it home and spoil it. And I don't even really like dogs most of the time. ^_^*
I'm almost done with my Christmas shopping, yay! Oh, Sarah - you should let Jason know that Hot Topic has Invader Zim T-shirts, if he doesn't already. I want one, and I told my mom as much, but she'll probably take one look and go "What the heck?! Why does she want this??" I could be wrong, though, and she is trying to get me to buy some new clothes, since I'm still wearing shirts I got in middle school. (I don't know what's wrong with that. I mean, if they still fit and aren't full of holes, what's the problem?)
In other news, I am really convinced that Joe is an idiot. >.< Oh well.
Blah, I hate naming every entry.

So far I have been using my winter break very productively by... playing lots of Chrono Cross. And I do mean lots. I've played the game all the way through twice and it's still loads of fun! There's just something about being able to use New Game + and start at the beginning at level 95, with Serge's ultimate weapon, that just gives me a nice warm feeling. I've gotten every character except for Doc and Razzly by now - I know how to get Doc, I just screwed it up; as for Razzly, I'm not positive. I'll try again next time, hee. I love this game. Some day Crysta will finish Final Fantasy IX and I'll borrow that from her, but until then, I'm just going to keep Chrono Cross-ing.
...I really need to add something else in the right corner up there, don't I? Oh well, I like blue. Vash does too, don't you, Vash?
O.o Wow, nice pic.

I have nothing more to say. *_*
I can't believe I have a crush on a 55-year-old.

 | If I were a work of art, I would be Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa. I am extremely popular and widely known. Although unassuming and unpretentious, my enigmatic smile has charmed millions. I am a mystery, able to be appreciated from afar, but ultimately unknowable and thus intriguing. Which work of art would you be? The Art Test |
I feel special. ^_^ Hey... I just realized that the beige is still here. Oops!
She's so high, like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite...

BWAHAHAHA!
Anyhoo. It's nine a.m. and I am tired and bored and tired. I'd be working on the blog layout, except that I'm on Alex's computer, so have no image editing anything. >.< I hope people get up soon, I'm hungry.
Everyone go read Katherine's blog about the Harry Potter movie! ^_^* It's not just me, thank God!
Finals... so stressful, and yet I'm glad they're here, because that means they're almost over. Um, that is all. ^_^*
Yay, Naked Vash!

I'm getting the new layout up, but it's not done yet. Just thought I'd warn anyone looking at this page. I'm going to do away with the beige outline, and probably put some neat title quote up with Vash. Isn't he cute? He's from one of my newer doujinshi; he's about to get in the shower, which will break and spray water all over, and Wolfwood will come fix it, and then they'll have sex against the wall. Shh, don't tell Vash, he doesn't know yet - we want it to be a surprise! ^_~
