   HAPPY MOOD TIME!!!
I'm in a happy mood! I finished my book ("Their Eyes Were Watching God" by Zora Neale Hurston, good book but sad and slow-moving), drew a picture of Howl, submitted it less than an hour ago, and it's already up! Please check it out. If you haven't seen "Howl's Moving Castle" yet, you should totally buy or rent it when it comes out. It's my favorite Miyazaki movie ever!
Speaking of Miyazaki, or rather Studio Ghibli, I got and watched "Pom Poko" yesterday! Good, funny, and includes elements of Japanese folklore (which makes me happy). There's three different styles of animated raccoons in the movie: realistic, nondescript cartoons, and the anime style Studio Ghibli is famous for. It's really interesting and a good movie. I encourage everyone to see it!
Speaking of Japanese folklore things, I have recently become obsessed with a very fun Super Nintendo arcade-style game: Pocky and Rocky. Pocky is like a priestess from a shrine (but she's a little girl, and very cute), and Rocky is a raccoon (or tanuki) from the Nopino goblins, who have been taken control of by the evil Black Mantle. And so two players go aroun killing traditional Japanese demons and spirits, (or "goblins" as the Enlish version game calls them). But my brother and I can't make it past the second level. Either the kappas (do you really put s's on the end of plural japanese nouns? I don't think so, but I don't know how else to pluralize stuff) or the stupid octopus boss kill us. Sad! But it's very fun.
Rice Flinga, I had so much fun swimming yesterday! We should do that again sometime! Yay!
Anyway, ja ne for now. I'm tired of writing and want to check out some other people's sites before coming back to see if anyone's commented on my new post or new pic! Heh... so... bye!
