  I haven't felt too well lately, but I'm sorta used to it so...whatever. I don't need to talk about depressing topics here.

I'm watching Record of Lodoss War now. It's alright, the detail on the faces and clothing is pretty good. Parts of it make no sense at all, but if I don't dwell on it the story is engrossing enough. It's a little bloody, but it also talks about the ravages of war.

I'm also having a private marathon of all Studio Ghibli movies I own, which is every film that has been released in America (except for Grave of Fireflies). The only two I have left to watch are Whisper of the Heart and The Cat Returns. I thought I should watch those two together as the latter is a continuing back-story of the Baron. The only movie made by Studio Ghibli that I'm not watching is Grave of Fireflies. It's a great movie. But it makes me depressed and makes me remember my emotions when I visited Hiroshima. I loved that trip, but it was an emotional one as my class learned about the horrors the Atomic Bomb brought those people. I sincerely hope no one ever uses one of those again, we have enough to worry about without the threat of utter annihilation hanging over our heads. Anyway, Grave of Fireflies is just too good at drawing out my empathetic emotions so I don't own it.

I'm not a big crier. I'm always surprised when people cry at movies. I mean, it's not real, ya' know? But I do get that "if you let yourself, you could cry now" feeling when I watch certain scenes in movies (or even a few books). I've only ever cried while watching two movies in my whole life. I wont tell the name of the first one because it's kinda embarrassing (I was only nine or ten when I saw that one). And the second movie I can't remember the name to and I'm too lazy to try to find out the name right now. It takes a lot for me to cry. I'm pretty good at keeping tears at bay. It usually takes a lot out of me to cry anyway. Rarely do I ever feel better after crying. I'm a reasonably rational creature, so I don't see the use in wearing myself out unnecessarily if I can possibly help it.

There I go again with my annoying introspection. Ah, well, guess there's no helping it. Thought processes are strange aren't they? I had no intention of talking about crying at all.

Until next time this is frabjousarcher[) signing off!
