oh hey
Hey Guys. if anyone is out there. ^^;


i havent posted since like...march. before easter at any rate. my bad. i guess i just lost interest...its been waning over the past year or two anyway, and i just gave up. my apologies for anyone who is/was watching me.


2010 has been a good year for me. I passed my motorcycle license at the beginning of the year, spent 5 months working in America and having a fantastic time of it, and then spent two months travelling New Zealand and Australia, getting up to all kinds of shenanigans, from sky diving to scuba diving and all the things in between. XD

i've made new friends, caught up with old ones and seen amazing things. and now i am back home, back to the old grindstone for the winter.



This is my last official post on this blog. As you can probably tell by the lack of activity, its for the best. I was tempted just to never post again, but i've put too much time and effort into this blog over the 6 years i've been posting here to just abandon it without a proper goodbye. i really enjoyed my time here, and met many awesome people, some of whom im still in touch with and still consider to be my friends. I spend most of my online time on Facebook and DeviantArt now, so if you wanna chat, meet me there. or just send me an email, that's cool too. if not, well i hope you have a great life. I have so far, and I pray that 2011 continues to build upon that. ^^

So long MyO. and thanks. its been...interesting. to say the least. ^^

Updates...


Heya folks. just some updates from the world of me. ^^

not a lot has been happening really with me. the biggest event of the past month or so is that i cleaned my room.


...


yup. i cleaned my room. properly. i can now see my carpet again! w00t! i also found some things i forgotten i had. its good to do a deep clean once in a while.

Im getting closer to being ready for this years Camp season. i spent a good solid hour or so yelling abuse at the american embassy visa application website. the application itself is annoying enough, but having to do it on the website is worse! hopefully its all sorted now. i gotta send off for that real soon.


its been a good couple of months for anime. I've been watching a series called "Sayonara Zetsubo Sensei" and its sequels. Its very bizarre, but quite funny too. ^^
i've also just finished watching a series called Sora No Woto. its a very beautiful 12 episode anime from the same animators who did K-ON. its set in europe in the future, but has the feel of an old fashioned era...sorta early 20th century europe. its hard to explain, but its quite light-hearted, has cute girls in it, and music plays a big part of the storyline. it is also quite capable of being dark and the story was very well written on top of the beautiful animation. i'd recommend it if you can see it.

i've also recently got into Victory Gundam, one of the older Gundam series. its pretty dark, and the animation is old style, quite close to the animation in G Gundam. its pretty good though, and i am enjoying it alot. I also bought a V Gundam model the other week, which im finding much enjoyment in.


The last big anime news is that i just watched the final episode of Shugo Chara. i've been watching that anime for 2 or 3 years now, and i have to say, im really going to miss it. Yeah, it was sorta childish, but you dont watch an anime for 125-odd episodes and not get really attached to the characters. It was funny, cute, but it also handled emotions really well. The story was well written and it really had a poignant message to get across too. im actually a little sad to see it go. :(

so, other then that, not much is happening with me. its my mums birthday on monday, then easter next sunday! w00t. and i also have a party that im going to the following week. so im staying pretty active all in all.

sorry i dont visit any more. as i said in my last post, i dont suspect i'll be posting much any more. perhaps until i leave for america at the end of may. ^^

till next time my friends.

meh
jeez, i havent updated in like...2 months. i have no real excuse, i just dont really feel like updating here anymore. I guess this is it. almost. :q


its been a fairly busy two months all in all. i still havent found a new job, but i've pretty much given up on that. Cotswolds (who im technically currently employed by) said they have more hours available this March so imm gonna stick with them for the time being.


I went to see Ponyo at the cinema. It was a very enjoyable movie, perhaps not one of Miyazaki's best productions, but a veritable classic in its own right. I thoroughly enjoyed it and woulf recommend it to anyone. It's really nice to see a traditionally animated movie in the theatres today. It doesnt happen very often.

I have also decided, after watching a whole spate of Miyazaki movies, that if i ever have kids, im gonna make them watch movies like Ponyo, Totoro, Howls Moving Castle, Kiki's Delivery Service, Porco Rosso etc when they're young. im gonna bring them up on a diet of Miyazaki movies. and a few disney movies too, maybe. there's just something so heart-warming and fantastic about a good Ghibli movie that invokes the imagination that you don't get in some of today's kids movies.


Another big event from the past couple of months is that my older brother graduated from his diploma course in L.A. my parents went out to see his ceremony, so i got the house to myself for a whole week. it was pretty awesome. XD

and finally, i have spent the last two weeks training to get my full motorcycle license. I took the test yesterday, and I passed!!! so i am now a fully licensed Rider! w00t! it means i can take my Learner plates off of Luna finally. (I've been riding with Learner plates on Luna for 6 years. 6 Years! sheesh.)

so yeah, all is good with me. Sorry that i dont stop by and visit much anymore. or at all really. ^^;;; im bad like that. Though, tho be fair, most of my friends here are now on Facebook or DeviantArt, and i talk to them there. its pretty dead here these days. *shrug* i dont expect myself to last much beyond easter or so. i'll proabably shut down my blog then. its been a fun five or six years though. ^^


later folks.

You have wings of STEEL. No one's really sure why, but at this point in your life you've shut off emotion to the point of extreme apathy. You are cold and indifferent much of the time...or perhaps you're just a good pretender. Next to impossible to get close to, even those who do never see the real you. It's entirely possible that YOU don't even know the real you. You have a certain fascination or attraction to destruction on a massive scale - disasters, perhaps even death or the concept of the Apocalypse. Because you hold so much inside, one day you're simply going to snap. Then the mask will fall away, and your true wings will be revealed. Until then you will deal with whatever comes your way in icy bitter silence and acceptance. On the positive side, you are fearless and immeasurably strong - not much can crack through your defenses. You intrigue people, who can't help but wonder why you're the way you are. A loner and one who spends much of their time brooding and contemplating life and death - you are a time bomb waiting to explode and create some destruction of your own. *~*~*Claim Your Wings - Pics and Long Answers*~*~* brought to you by Quizilla
