Happy Halloween!

I'm going to start off by saying "HAPPY HALLOWEEN!". I hope everyone has a awesome holiday.




My friends and I are going to a 'Fall Festival'. (Halloween thing, really. I get so tired of people wanting to CELEBRATE the holiday, but they won't own up to it. It's the 31st. It's a freaking Halloween party. If you wear costumes, and get candy. IT'S A HALLOWEEN PARTY. THANK YOU!) I wouldn't normally go to these things (I went last year for the same reason this year) but my friends asked me to go so I figured I would. Then after the festival we're coming back to my house and they're going to spend the night. =) I'm hoping we can finish the Nancy Drew game we started a couple months ago.

NOW- LAST NIGHT I WENT TO SEE ROCKY HORROR AGAIN!!! I spent a lot of time convincing my mom that we HAD to go again. I managed to win her over after I promised to pay for my own ticket. It was as much fun as the last time, and the highlight of the night....

HELL YES! I AM THAT AWESOME. Okay so I almost wimped out. My mom ended up being the one that asked if I could get a picture with him. I was shaking all over. XD I'M SO HAPPY THOUGH. EPIC WIN! EPIC WIN!

Now this pales in comparison, but I went to a Twilight book discussion on Tuesday. It was really cool. There weren't many people since it was super windy and rainy, but the people that DID show up were very nice. There was this 26 year old guy there who didn't like the book and pretty much hated the characters. He was REALLY funny along with the lady who leads us in our discussions. I think the best quote from the entire thing would be, "What would you do if some guy came up to you and said "YOU STINK SO GOOD, I LOVE YOU!" XDD

Now I'm going to go try to watch Vampire Knight Guilty 4 before I have to leave for this festival. I'll probably do a post about it tomorrow, or Sunday.

Ciao for now!

AMV making

I started that AMV today. I spent over 4 hours working on it. It's about a quarter done...not even that. I had a great time working on it though. (While whining to my friend when I'd get stuck. XD) I stopped now since my WMM kept freezing. I'll figure out THAT problem tomorrow. I'm too tired to deal with it now.

Vampire Knight Guilty 4 comes out tomorrow. Here's hoping it's subbed by Thursday. I really love that series. I'm ready to know what happens next!

There was a sudden update in Cat Street (manga) chapter scans. I really hope that manga gets translated and brought over to America. It caught my interest the minute Keito (lead character) started going to El Liston, a free school for kids who have lost their way. The manga is all about second chances, and how it's never too late as long as you're alive. It really hits home with how I feel about education so I'd like to see it come over. (It's the closest that I've seen a manga get to homeschooling/unschooling. At least out of the manga I've read.)

Still waiting for the next High School Debut scan. I'm waiting and dreading at the same time. I want to see what happens next, but I don't want the series to end. It's hovering there. The ending. I'll be sad when it's over.

Oh, and because of Shojo Beat (that magazine really isn't good for me. XD) I've taken an interest in Captive Hearts. The plot amuses me no end. We'll see if it continues to grasp my interest.

Just so you know, I DO read actual books. American books. (Not that they HAVE to be American.) xD I'm currently reading a book called "Suck it up" by Brian Meehl. I'm really enjoying it. It's full of laughs.

I'm tired.

Going to crash now.

Night.

Vampire Knight Guilty 3

I think this has to be one of my favorite episodes out of both seasons. I'm going to jump right in so time for the regular warning.

***VAMPIRE KNIGHT GUILTY SPOILERS***

• The best part of this episode, in my opinion, was getting to see Zero's less serious side. For majority of the series we see him being serious, angsty, and gentle. Maybe not in that order. XD

• One of the first scenes is Aidou trying to sneak into the male dorms. Yuuki's willing to hear him out but, of course, Zero wants to get rid of the stupid Vampire as soon as possible. (By force if necessary.) Zero threatening to tie Aidou up and Aidou FLEEING while yelling "CATCH ME IF YOU CAAAAAN~!" had me in complete giggle fits.

• Little Kaname was adorable. (He won my little screenshot spot.) You just want to hug him the whole time. Aidou was cute too, but such a little BRAT. XD Okay, so ALL the vampires were cute. I just thought Kaname was sweet when he asked if Aidou would be his friend.

• Oh, and Shiki's family. It was all very mysterious. My friend denies it, but I still say that kid is somehow related to him. I want to know more about both of them!

• Now, the highlight of the whole episode. ZEROXYUUKI SCENE!!!!! Zero somehow manages to make me feel warm, and fuzzy every episode. The entire scene is extremely sweet, and very sexy. There isn't really any other way to describe it. I liked that Yuuki acknowledged the fact that she wasn't afraid of Zero. Yet she admitted to herself that she was scared when he was drinking her blood. It sounds confusing but it makes sense if you watch the series.

• I loved the final line of the episode. "I won't let you become something like that. Even if I have to make Kuran Kaname my enemy, or be hated by you." It was a good way to end an episode.

I think the whole episode covered a lot. I'm psyched for the next one.

***END VAMPIRE KNIGHT GUILTY SPOILERS***

I've currently downloaded all the RAW episodes of Ouran. (Minus 22..since it's IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND. T_T) I used to make Avatar the Last Airbender AMV's. I really miss it so I'm excited to get started again.

That's all for this post.

I'm out.

P.S. I added bullets this time since on my longer posts it tries to mash all the breaks together. Then it just looks like a huge block of text.

Rocky Horror

So I kept talking about it coming up, and finally it did. It was GREAT. All the actors did an amazing job, and their "Dr. Frank 'n furter" was too good. The HEELS he wore. He even RAN in them.

They had 'phantoms' dancing in the background, or on the sides during the whole thing. It was impossible to see EVERYTHING. So much was going on! The phantoms weren't just there for dancing. They were also human props. (I'm guessing that there was about a dozen of them.) They managed to form a car for Brad, and Janet. (Complete with air freshener, and window wiper), a creaky old door, and various other silly things.

I watched the movie on Wednesday night, and then tonight was the play. I'm going to say flat out that I found the play to be 100% better. I tend to always think that. I think a big part of it is the creativity they have to use in the play. They can't build a different set for each scene. They have to work with what they have. I'm also biased since I've seen around 8 plays there, and I can pick out which actors I've seen, and liked before. (They are all truly talented.)

You could also buy a bag full of goodies to use during the play. (There were certain moments to use a certain thing.) Like when Dr. F was singing "I will make you a man" you could blow bubbles, or throw streamers. We had party blowers, cards, and you even got a feather boa to wear. (Mine was blue! 8D)

I didn't cosplay from the movie, but I did dress up. Everything I was wearing was black, and my shirt had a huge sparkly skull and crossbones on it. (I love me my skulls) My mom sprayed my hair black, and blue. She put some sparkly silver eyeshadow on me, and then poked my eyes out with eyeliner. I also painted my nails black. (They're sloppy, and lumpy. XD FEAR MY AWESOME NAIL PAINTING SKILLS!)

There's so much to say about it. It was just a TON of fun. I want to go again!

It's even hard to pick out a favorite scene. I'm still absorbing it all. I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight!

I think that's all I can manage to talk about for tonight. VKG 3 should be subbed by tomorrow. I need to go wash my hair so I don't stain all the furniture with hair dye.

P.S. Most of those men looked better in fishnets than I ever would. XD

Vampire Knight Guilty 2

I found the subbed episode of Vampire Knight Guilty 2 last night. Another good episode. We got to find out what was happening in the trailer when it looked like Kaname was going to bite her.

***SPOILERS AHEAD***

I thought the episode was really good. That little boy, (whom I think might be related to Shiki. They appear to be very similar) you knew was going to be trouble. You think Yuuki would stop falling for the little kids. First the Level E Vampire with the balloon, and then she follows another one to a dilapidated building.

I love Zero's master. (He gets the screenshot spotlight this time!) He is one of my favorite characters in the series. His dry sense of humor compliments the Chairman's silliness perfectly. The fact that he got away with ruffling Zero's hair was great. "Yo, stupid apprentice." XD How can you NOT love that?

More of the mysterious Ichiru. The plot thickens. No idea whatsoever what he meant when he asked Zero "Do you know the curse of the twins?" So morbid.

Another dramatic scene. This time with Kaname, and Yuuki. I'm not sure what I think on the entire thing. I always feel like Kaname is talking down to Yuuki like she's still a child. Which in his eyes she is. So it makes the whole scene kind of awkward since I think he looks at her as a little kid. (The 5, or 6 year old he saved out in the snow.) Which is one thing my friend and I have discussed before. I did some research to find out how old Kaname REALLY is since we only know he's older than Yuuki. From what I found he's supposed to be 18. So he was either 7, or 8 when he saved her. I struggle to wrap my mind around that since he did not look that young. AT ALL. I know Vampires would mature more quickly, but still. That's pushing it. XD

It looks like Yuuki might FINALLY start getting some of her memories back. Which is exciting. Since she had that miniature flashback in the windowless room I ASSUME that's an old memory from her past. I'm ready for Yuuki to have something she can deal with on her own. Instead of having Zero, and Kaname come and save her all the time. I'm curious to see how she'll handle it.

Oh, one more thing. Ichijou, and Shiki are awesome. That is all.

***Vampire Knight Spoilers end here***

I would have posted this yesterday, but I was too tired. I went to hear Sarah Palin speak in the morning. (Which was really interesting, and actually fun once we were done standing in line.) Then I spent the rest of the day watching another anime. Yes, I'm an idiot. I started ANOTHER anime when I'm still trying to finish two other ones, and I have a friend bugging me to watch one she really likes. GO ME!

It's called Itazura na Kiss. (Translates: Mischievous Kiss) I ended up watching 6 episodes. XD People who liked LoveCom, and High School Debut liked it so I decided to check it out. It's pretty good. I don't think I'll get obsessed with it, but I DO want to finish it. It's only 25 episodes long so I think it's manageable. LAWL.

Now I'm going to go shower, draw, and hopefully figure out how to download this thing.

IT'S NOT COOPERATING WITH ME. D=

The Legend of Sleepy Hollow

Tonight was that presentation I posted about before. It was really cool. The actors did an awesome job. The whole thing had a lot of laughs, and it definitely had a spooky feel to it. The headless horseman was great. The horse was HUGE, and they had his head as a smiling jack o' lantern. Watching him chase Ichabod at the end was more entertaining than it should have been. Everyone was laughing, and screaming "RUN ICHABOD, RUN!"

I had a horrifying moment where I thought Ichabod was going to grab me, and drag me out to dance with him. He grabbed the little girl right next to me, whom (my mom pointed out to me later in the car, and I felt like an idiot) was obviously going to be part of it since she was wearing this fancy white dress. All I know was they already picked on me in the other room, and he was COMING RIGHT AT ME. XD DO NOT WANT!

So all in all, it was an amazingly fun night. Besides feeling like a complete doofus for freaking out for NO REASON.

The 23rd we go see "Rocky Horror". I'm excited, and nervous for it. I'm not exactly sure what to expect. xD We shall see, I suppose.

Vampire Knight Guilty 2 should be subbed by now, but it's too late for me to watch. I have to get up at 6:00 in the morning tomorrow. I'll have to watch it later in the day.

Going to go die now.

Ciao.

Vampire Knight Guilty 1!

OK, I know. A week since I posted. I don't know what my problem is. I'm getting better with dealing with my laziness. I'm hoping I can completely kill it soon. The start of Vampire Knight Guilty came out last Tuesday. It was subbed by I believe Thursday. Maybe Friday. I just re watched a better quality version of the first episode, and I have to say I think they started it off pretty well. Episode 2 came out today. Should be subbed later this week!

Okay so time to rant. If you haven't read the manga, or watched season 1, and started season 2. Don't. Read. This. Unless you don't mind spoilers.

Kaname makes it almost impossible for me to like him. At all. His whole personality annoys me. Let alone the constant getting under Zero's skin. It probably doesn't help that I'm a ZeroxYuuki fan, and I like Zero 10x more than Kaname.

The animation DEFINITELY changed. Yuuki's eyes were big before, but now they resemble plates. XD NOBODY will EVER beat Tohru from Fruits Basket, but I hope they don't keep changing the style. I love the animation in the first season. Why must they change a good thing?

New opening, and ending are AWESOME. Especially the opening. (It's where I got my crappy low quality screenshot of Zero with his awesome gun the 'Bloody Rose'. ) I love the scene with Yuuki in the woods. It's just really cool.

I almost had a fit when Zero had his nightmare about him killing Yuuki. Then he almost KISSES HER. AAH. THEN HE DOESN'T. WHY. WHY WHY WHY. THAT WAS TORTURE. He's so sweet though. The whole scene with him hugging her brings warm, and fuzziness.

Alright, I think I'm done rambling about Vampire Knight. I'm excited to get deeper into the series. Then the real speculation comes out.

On a completely different topic- Chapter 46 of High School Debut (AKA, KouKou Debut) was released, and translated. I love love love that series. I enjoyed the new chapter. Seeing Yoh, and Asami's relationship together was nice since I always wondered about it. Yoh never seemed especially fond over his younger sister. Assa never really showed she cared overly much till chapter 45. Well besides when Yoh got sick, but even then she dumped him on Haruna for most of the day. XD So yeah, good chapter. Very cute. I'm sad the series is coming to an end. =(

Friday is the Sleepy Hollow presentation! Woot woot!

And to quote my brother "Love, peace, and chicken grease!"

Quick update

It has now been 1 month since I started this blog. Already. WOW.

Vampire Knight Guilty came out YESTERDAY. I'm hoping that the sub will be released by tomorrow. PLEASE LET IT BE RELEASED BY TOMORROW.

My mom, and I had been watching all the seasons of Monk. We watched up to season 6, and now we're waiting for season 7 to come out on DVD. So in the meantime we started the British series "The Inspector Lynley Mysteries". (We love British television) I think the series is pretty cool. I kind of want to read the books to see if anything changed when they made the show. It seems rare for me to have a favorite American show anymore. I love Monk, and I also enjoy the different Law and Order series. That's about it.

I don't have much to say in this post. I'm still planning on doing a "Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World" post. Currently I have been feeling extremely lazy. I'm hoping to kill this slump soon.

Well, my friend is pestering me to go paint chat with her.

Adios!

October updates

I'm going to start this by saying -- 2 more days till Vampire Knight Guilty! Well 3, or 4 if you count the time needed to sub the first episode. Still, less than a week!

Tuesday my friend, and I had FINALLY started taking yoga classes once again. It felt like we were never going to get there. I really liked the place, but we're switching to Thursday mornings when we can get our preferred instructor back. The new woman was nice, but she went a little too fast for us.

October 17th I'm going to a "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" presentation. That will be cool. I'm looking forward to it. I really enjoyed reading the story, and who WOULDN'T like seeing the headless horseman?

Then I THINK October 23rd (somewhere around there) I'm going to see the play "Rocky Horror Show" with my mom, and her friend. I am REALLY excited for that. It looks like it will be a blast, and HILARIOUS.

In other news my need to get Time Hollow soon has disappeared. I'll get it later. When I KNOW I have the money. I decided last night to do more research on "Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World," and I was having a major spazz attack. It's coming out November 11th. NOVEMBER 11th!! I thought it was going to be in JANUARY, or somewhere around there. Not only did I find out the date I also saw more footage, and more information about the game in general.

Along with finding the whole opening -



Tales of Symphonia was my favorite game till I started playing the Ace Attorney games last September. I still love it more than any gamecube game I've ever played. So I have been waiting for a sequel for over 2 years. It looks AMAZING. However I don't like Lloyd's new voice actor. I'll live with it. It was just a disappointment to hear him. I'll probably make a post ONLY about ToS: DOTNW in a couple days. This makes me want to replay Tales of Symphonia yet again. (That would be the sixth time. I have put over 100 hours of gameplay into that game. )

Now I'm going to go spend the rest of my Saturday reading, and drawing. I'm too lazy to spend it outside even though it's a lovely day out. Hopefully it will be a nice day tomorrow too. I really do love October.

Peace!
