   Days off from school are nice . . .
I can't believe I forgot to mention it last day . . . Children's Lit' prof (the guy who makes me feel guilty about how I ran away from his class because I didn't wanna face being a bad and lazy student (which I was and still kinda am) dropped a book from the reading list because he didn't really like it in the end. So, he replaced it with "Spirited Away"! I was very happy to learn that one. I'll try not to go ultra-otaku on them when we watch it at the end of the semester, though . . .

Umm, so let's see . . . oh yeah! The IIHF World Juniors! I generally don't watch as much hockey as most of the people in my house (shameful, I know), but I kept up on the World Juniors tournament. And who knew it, they smoked the Russians last night for the gold! 5-0, no less! I felt kinda bad for the Russians because well, a lot of them were like, crying and stuff at the end, and that's never fun for anyone (poor goalie . . .). But then on the other side of things, Canada won the gold, followed by Russia, and then Finland in 3rd place. T'was a good run. Huzzah and all that.

I watched "Fullmetal Alchemist: The Conqueror of Shambala" the other day too. Quite good, I quite enjoyed it. Gives a sense of closure to the series though without completely closing it (I hope not, anyway), and there's a lot of early Nazi Germany history seeded throughout the story. As a WW2 geek, that really caught my eye. But yeah, not bad, not bad.

In other news my neck hurts right now. And my throat hurts a little. In fact, I'm probably sick and not really acknowledging it as such. And my sleeping patterns are still all whacked out. Boo. On the other hand, the new "Naruto" ED with all the characters in dog outfits is insanely cute, especially with Sakura, Ino, and Hinata. Just sayin' . . .


Random SomeGuy Trivia: I can use chopsticks with my offhand. Not as well as with my good hand, of course, but decently enough if I try hard. Mostly I just do it when I go out to eat at a Chinese/Japanese place, and then I switch it back and forth to see if anyone notices. It's amusing for me.
