Chitter chatter

My poster! Isn't it AWESOME?!


Alright! Update time.


So what have I been up to...hmm.


Well, last Wednesday was the American Idol season finale. Kris won!!! I was so happy! I didn't like Adam at all in the end. Probably because they pimped him so much, and I always reject that. I also didn't think he was that amazing since I go to the theater all the time, and I see people just like him or BETTER than him. He's not that different. Really. I also think he'll lose some of his fanbase after he's recorded. Adam was all flashy performances and screaming. Once you take away the visual he won't seem that great. Not that I hate him, or anything. I think they both have great futures ahead of them. Not that I regret voting for Kris for 4 hours. :D


It was also my birthday on Wednesday. I'm now 17. Ick. Okay, it's not that bad. I'm now the same age as a lot of my favorite characters. Lloyd from Symphonia, Luke from Abyss, Jas from Kitty series, Tamaki from Ouran....17 must be an ideal age for writers. XD Not quite an adult, but old enough to make their own decisions.


My birthday was fun. We went out to dinner (my grandpa came along and picked on me), and I got a new TV for my room. It looks HUGE. I have a small room, and now I have a 22" flat screen. How epic is THAT? Gaming will be even more awesome now. Plus my amazing online friend's always make me feel really special. I love them to pieces. The friend's I actually know in person are pretty spiffy too. ;D


So on Sunday my friend and I finished watching Gungrave. Wow. Just wow. The ending was....great. Not at all what I expected, but great nonetheless. This series was very...morbid. There was very little happy moments, and even when there were, you knew it was going to come to a halting stop at any moment. You're kind of on the edge of your seat the entire time. I almost started crying at the end. I was really close. They really painted a great image of how the syndicate can work, and like Death Note, the deterioration of Harry as his hunger for power grew. I generally avoid sad series (and VIOLENT), but I'm really glad I watched Gungrave. The one thing about this anime however, is that you can definitely tell it was based off a video game. I don't consider that a bad thing, but (especially during the Lee fight) it was a tad over the top. I mean Bob turns into this giant thing that looks like a turnip. I was half hysterical during the Lee fight because of the way he was SCREAMING. It shouldn't of been funny, but it WAS. I was really happy with the Bunji vs. Grave fight at the end. Very in character.


So now that we finished Gungrave we have now started watching Cowboy Bebop, and then after that I'm making her watch the Tales of the Abyss anime with me. Speaking of which. I've watched up to episode 9 so far. I'm very very happy with the anime. They're sticking to the game, and it's really enjoyable. I'm glad I've reached the point where Luke decided he wanted to change. It was hard to watch him being such a jerk again. He makes it so hard to like him in the beginning.


Alright, so I wanted to save this for last since I'm so HAPPY, and I would of put it in the last post but I wanted to put a picture of it up so I waited. Last Thursday my mom and I get home from the grocery store, and there was a message on the phone. She comes back and plays a message from EPAC saying that I won the Altar Boyz raffle I entered. I SCREAMED. Friday we went and I got a poster that all the boyz signed. I couldn't believe it! I'm going to hang it up on my door since I don't really have space anywhere else. I'd hang it on my ceiling but it's on a wood board. Not that I mind. It means that if I ever want to move it I don't have to worry about it tearing.


EEEEK, how awesome is THAT!?


Alright, I think that's everything. I downloaded World of Goo for my birthday and for such a ridiculous sounding name the game is a lot of fun. I might go play that for awhile. Or draw...drawing is good.



Till next time!
P.S. Don't ask me why there's a huge white gap at the end of the post. I have no idea.
