   This is Probably Going to Be a Long One, BUT I Have GOOD NEWS!
First and most importantly: I am so sorry everyone! I've been such a lousy friend, disappearing for so long and such. I'm sure that you're all sick of the excuses I have. Well, the last time I was here it was during the Christmas holidays. After the Christmas holidays I had my semester 1 exams, but after the exams my internet died at my house and it's still dead. v_v It doesn't really matter if it's dead at my house though because I couldn't get on MyOtaku there anyways, since Firefox messes up on this site and my Internet Explorer is also dead.

As for the good news!: I'm in semester 2 now, and I have a tonne of easy courses with barely any major assignments! So I'll be able to come on more on the weekends. Also once the internet is fixed at my house (and I don't know when that'll be), I'll still be able to reply to PMs and go on other website, such as DeviantArt, Community Lounge message boards, YouTube, and all those other fun places ^.^

Summer time is looking pretty good for me as well! My dad got me a job at the bank he works at, so I can start preparing for university! *^.^* I'm so happy I got that job! Also my parents have agreed with me now that since I have a job with my dad I won't have to go up to our island/dad's friend's cottage all the time (maybe 1 or 2 times though), so I'll be able to spend my weekends still on here! *^.^*

I hope everyone likes the new theme! I know I wasn't very active during the Sango one, maybe I'll put it up again sometime, when I run out of theme ideas. ^.^; So the new theme is Elfen Lied sorta, it has my 3 favourite characters from Elfen Lied in it (Mariko, Mayu, and Lucy). Actually Mariko and Mayu are my favourites really, but I also like Lucy's tragic story and the killer side of her, Lucy's stupid side (Nyu) really bugs me though. XD A lot of people don't watch Elfen Lied because they think it's too violent and that there's too much nudity. Yesh, that's true there is a lot of violence and nudity, but it has a wonderfully sad story. The only reason I wouldn't recommend Elfen Lied to someone is if that person doesn't like really sad stories, other than that it's great! I really like the anime for the characters' stories, but there are a few missing links in the anime series as a whole. But the manga seems to cover everything, so if you like to start with the manga by all means please do (I dunno if it's finished yet though). Also the anime has some really beautiful music, the song Lillium really is great but it has a few other nice instrumental songs as well.

My friend, Nhi, bought me a really good manga for my birthday called "Claymore." According to a review I read the Claymore anime isn't very good, but the manga is brilliant. I've only read the first manga and I love it! The artwork is okay, but the story/plot is really cool and it's only 13 volumes long (so it won't take up too much space on my bookshelf, unlike the wretched Inuyasha mangas... -_-) By the way, I heard that the last Inuyasha movie (the fifth one) is supposed to be the official ending for the anime series, so what else does anyone know about it?

As much as I hate to admit it, I've sorta begun to like Death Note. Here's what happened: I have a bunch of friends in my school that love Death Note. So one day at lunch while they were reading the manga, they commented on how similar I was to one of the characters. (I don't want to sound full of myself or anything, but generally anybody who is strange in at least one of the ways I am, is pretty awesome to me). Well lo and behold, L and I are freakishly similar, I swear the author must've taken a vacation to Canada and decided to study me while he was there to base this retardedly weird character on me. @.@ L stole the way I sit (I was sitting in the way he was in the manga when my friends showed me it too, with the knees up and everything), he loves candy/sugar and DONUTS (okay, a lot of people do, but if I could I would marry a donut... or sell my soul for one like Homer Simpson), he sticks his fingers in his mouth (I stopped that habit in grade 6 though), he's childish, and he's UGLY (I mean not only is the artwork bad for this series, but that is one of the ugliest anime guys I've ever seen!) So yesh, I like Death Note for the characters L and Light (yes dammit I said Light too, he is so awesome and psychotic like a friendly sociopath!)

That's really the only thing I think anyone can like Death Note for, the characters and the music. I mean the plot is full of holes (like CSI), all the other characters don't do their jobs which makes L and Light look like the only smart guys, Misa is beyond annoying (an insult to women in a way), the artwork is bad, and episodes 26 to 35 are apparently useless. Meh but the music is okay, not the singing that much, but the instrumental themes and stuff ^.~ I really like how the characters have set personalities, so fanfiction writers have no way of screwing up the series without looking dumb (some do it anyways though, grr!) Also I like how Light's character develops, you notice in about the first 5 episodes thathe goes from a sweet, dedicated high school student to a manipulative, sociopathic, killer that for some reason wants to make the world a better place. Now, that's what I call real madness, sociopaths generally hate the world and everyone in it, but Light wants to save the world without any regards to how many people he's killing to make it safer. Madness I tells you ^.~

Lastly, I was wondering if you guys wanted me to start putting questions in my posts because I notice people really like that ^.~ It won't bother me if you go straight to the questions in your comments either because I know my posts are long. So would y'all like me to start having questions at the bottom of my posts?

I know I have no right to even ask you guys to check out my fanart, since I've been gone so long. But if you'd like to see what's new here it is:

I drew them after my exams but before my internet broke so I could stick them up, I mainly drew them in classes and on snowdays (we had 2!)

Well, I'm definately going to try to visit all your sites now and tomorrow. I'm leaving my cottage tomorrow and going back to my internet-less house. ^.^; See Yas! And I missed y'all so much!
