   yes its me again!
well who were you expecting? it is my site y'know.

its nice n sunny here today. and im sitting in the library. ^^; seriously though, it is nice weather here, and im enjoying it.

my life is kinda hectic at the mo. i got exams in a week, so im studying (kinda ^^; ) and i've also just had a driving lesson. Ive got to arrange sponsorship for the sponsored walk im doing shortly. and in cadets, ugh. I got awards evening next monday, drill competition shortly, Civic Parade that we have to do and a buncha other stuff that you didnt come here to read about...

instead, let me make a recommendation to you: SAIKANO.
ive made this recommendation before, and im gonna do it again, especially after just reading vol 4 of the manga.

I love Saikano. which is weird cuz I picked it up on a hunch after seeing it in the bookshop with no previous knowledge of the story or the manga-ka behind it.

Its sad, its romantic and its brilliantly drawn. it does have its funny points and light hearted moments too. Its a story about love and war. its one of my fav mangas of all time.

Volume 4 had me laughing out loud. im probably one of the only people in the world who would find it funny, but there we go. ^^; I was kinda puzzled when it came to me shrinkwrapped with a Parents Advisory sticker on the front, but its no more mature than the other volumes. (btw...it IS for mature audiences) but i enjoyed it so much i literally yelled out "NO!!!" when i came to the end. *sigh* now I have to wait for vol 5 to come out. Hopefully my vol 3 DVD will be over from the states soon.

I would soo totally recommend that you read vol 4 of Saikano. Of course, that means you would have to read vols 1-3 to get whats going on, but tough cookies. its a great manga. isnt that why we are here, to discuss manga (and my lame excuse for a life?)

oh well. Have fun with whatever you are doing this week guys. I havnt got a comic, but i will try to draw one up for next time I am here. i will also try to visit some of you, but i am kinda on a time limit here.

Toodles. ^^
