News and Other News
A TV marketing guy just called me, and I didn't feel like talking (my voice is rapidly running away), so i just hung up without saying anything. Was that rude? I don't think so, since he called me in the first place. And he's getting paid to endure that kind of thing anyway.

So what have I been up to lately? The usual. Scrambling to not-fail classes, sleeping more than I should, RPing and downloading. Things have been pretty, well, boring, to be honest. Although today my long-lost karate equipment showed up. That was a happy thing.

For the hell of it, I will now give a demonstration of how I read TheO news headlines.
1) Wait several weeks.
2) Delve into archives to collect information all in one shot (whish, sadly, why I didn't find out about the Hyde concert until it was beyond too late and into historical tragedy).
3) Look for familiar names/pictures/titles.
Ex:
*scroll scroll scroll* Pillows! Sweetness, a concert.
*scroll scroll scroll scroll scroll* OMGOMGOMGOMGTWELVEKINGDOMSNOVELSFINALLYYAYYYYYYYY!
*scroll scroll scroll scroll* A funny video. *wacthes first few seconds* Screw that.
*scroll scroll* THERE's the Dire En Grey article I was lookin' for! *bookmark*

4) Post excitement.
Although I think I forgot #4 when I found out about the Twelve Kingdoms novels. Oh, what joy, what rapture I expereicned when I read that small paragraph. I can't wait for them, so excited. ^.^ If you haven't seen the anime already, I really have to recommend it. It gets very confusing, and there are a lot of names, but the artwork is pretty, the voice acting doesn't suck, and the story is surprisingly original (you think, oh, just another misfit girl sucked into another world story, but it's not at all, really). Also, if you need something to read but don't want to stray too far from the manga aisle, I highly recommend the Vampire Hunter D novels, with lovely illustrations by everyone's favorite Final Fantasy character designer. Also, DMP has put out the first volume of Only the Ring Finger Knows (the novel), so the yaoi fangirls also have some literature to devour this summer. The end's rather steamy, a nice touch the manga didn't have. Yays-ness.
