   [FANGIRL// orO? a new environment!]
in this chilly, gray & rainy november, i decided to erase the dark colors of october to completely change the look of my MyO page. the aftermath: isn't this brightness uplifting?? haha, it certainly feels diff around here & i hope hope u'll enjoy this cheerfulness too! XD

aside from that, i don't really have anything to say today, so i'll just share some random thoughts on some recent manga i've read! ^_^;

...don't u think "girl got game" (TP) by shizuru seino & "hana-kimi" (VIZ) by hisaya nakajo are awfully similar? they are both about a girl disguising herself as a boy in order to enter a boys' school/athletic team & the chaos/romance that ensues. personally, i prefer "girl got game" since it's more believable (as believable as a girl's crossdressing success can really get), the char's are more conflicted...& that the main male char is cuter (?!!). ^^

...for those who are into horror/drama, "lament of the lamb" (TP) by kei toume is a very good read. it's about a long-held family secret & a pair of siblings who (resistingly?) are turning into vampires. so what is in their blood?? i've only finished vol.1, can't wait to read more tho! btw, the main female char really reminds me of 'mana' from rumiko takahashi's "mermaid saga", interesting.

...no more 90s romance! no more stories w/ char's of indistinguishable gender! no more flamboyant 90s/heavy metal fashion! and most importantly, no more guys in drag, pls!!! >_<; if u r familiar w/ the works of tomoko taniguchi ("miss me?" "princess prince" "aquarium" & so forth), u'd know what i'm talking about. argh! the horror!!!

...since my younger brother is currently into reading chinese martial arts manhwa, i've the chance to pick up some of his books & read too. and this is one thing i don't get: how come every char in there - male & female - look like they are body-builders? i know they are supposed to be martial artists, but still. ?_?

well, enough rambling for today. i'm sure u r tired of reading my mumbo jumbo too. ^_^; gotta go back to work & reading...maybe.
