Carpe diem! Whatever that means!
Wouldn't it be funny if carpe diem didn't mean "seize the day"? What if some Latin nerd decided to tell his friends, "Hey, this really cool phrase means 'seize the day.'" His friends, in turn, told a whole bunch of other people, who told a whole bunch of other people, who told the writers of The Dead Poet's Society. What if, instead, it translates to "I enjoy licking jelly from between Marshwiggle toes"? How do we know?

87.7 brownie points if you get the Marshwiggle reference. :D

Other than my unusually active inner life, not much going on here. I fought My Closet for dominance of the room and won! Now our trashcan is full of all my old crap. ^^;; Most of it, sadly, is old school notes that my mother insisted I get rid of. I'm such a dork. But I am a victorious dork! I also hung all the stuff that was hiding in my closet, including my mad awesome Spiral wallscroll and- hey, why do I get the feeling you've heard this before? Maybe that's because I covered this last entry! *blushes*

Ahem. ^^;; Anyway, nothing too new on the anime front. I think I'm slowly starting to warm up to Eureka 7. At the beginning, I kind of shrugged it off because of the animation style and the sort of stereotypical characters. I think I finally warmed up to it as the characters gained a bit more depth. Plus, it's the only new anime on AdultSwim, so if I want my fix, I'd have to warm up to it. ^^;; I haven't really got much on the anime front what with my inability to use Bittorent on this outdated computer and my lack of opportunity to use my giftcards. I think I might even sell off some of my old manga that I've lost interest in. I figure that I could use money from manga I don't really like/read anymore and buy stuff that I do like. I'm wickedly behind in basically every series (even Chrno Crusade!). I only have the first two volumes of Tsubasa, the first three of FMA, and the first four of Shaman King. Gaaah, see what school does to you?

Not much to do this week, so I might crank out a few projects I've been wanting to do. I have to at least feel productive. XD Maybe I'll get around to watching all of those cult classics I've missed. Believe it or not, I've never seen all of a Star Wars movie. :O Nor have I seen Moulin Rouge! and a bunch of other stuff sitting in my living room. Maybe I should *gasp* relax over break. ^^;;

Anyhow, have a lovely rest of the weekend! Especially Mimmi, who doesn't have to work until Wednesday! ^-^
