It’s a long-weekend again. Thank God.
Luckily for me, aside from school, life’s been more or less normal. There are the occasional family small problems but its become practically an everyday thing so I’m getting used to it. It’s not a good thing to get used to, sure. But really, it’s nothing new anymore. My moral goes down a lot during those times but hell, I’m human too.
I haven’t been able to write anything properly lately. My steam seems to have to run out but this happens now and then … I’ll get back on track soon. I still got about two months before I have to finish my second draft so I can still take it easy.
On the bright side, I finally got a new iPod! I was supposed to get an 8GB Nano but the 80GB classic was on sale so my Dad bought it for me (well, I did pay more than a 1/3 of it tho’). It’s so new an shiny! @_@
I’ve been toying around until late last night. Converting my anime into mp4 format takes longer than I thought … but I did manage to get some Koutetsu Sangokushi, Shigofumi, Ghost Hound episodes in it. I’m planning on getting the entire Code Geass series in it soon too … since I plan on re-watching it one last time before R2.
Speaking of CG, I’ve been quite a CG freak lately. I’m really overly excited for r2 that it’s unhealthy. The only thing I have yet to devour is the manga (and the light novels, but I can’t read kanji or kana soo …) which I plan to after re-watching the anime one more time. Lulu has definitely gone up in my list of favorite male anime characters. His probably already in 2nd place (after Matt)! Tomoya’s in third and Ryuichi soon following.
In the Drama CD department, I’m desperately trying to listen to non-BLCDs. I’ve found a few I’m interested in listening to (namely Dogs and the Saiunkoku Monogatari dramas). I’ve already got Dogs in my iPod but I haven’t finished it yet. I’ve only listened to Badou’s story so far (I skipped Mihai’s)
I did listen to Ahomo: Mossore tho’ and damn that was one hell of a funny drama! It wasn’t BL, per say but it was slash (and one of the main characters was homo). I also got the 2nd CD of Only the Ring Finger knows but I haven’t gotten any further than the first track yet. My list of things to listen and watch has definitely increased to a point where I don’t know what to do anymore. Things will get worst when all the spring anime start airing and I really do go nuts so I have to shorten the list before then.
Last bit of news, it’s my birthday in about 15 days! That’s something to look forward too, thank God! Actually, I’m going to ask my brother if he can bring me to Marché Clandestin and pay for some manga/novel I want (namely Junjo Romantica and Only the Ring Finger knows) … (well, I kind of want FAKE, too) The most important is definitely at least one volume of Junjo and the first novel of Ring Finger. If he’s willing to pay for more, I might get Gravitation EX and the second volume of Junjo.
Honestly though, I just really need $$ for my b-day. All my money went to my iPod so I’m broke. Its times like this I wish I was old enough to have a job. *mutters* Just one more year! (I’m turning 15)
