See you Space Cowboy

Sorry for the lack of updates lately. I've been really busy with stuff, some good, some bad. I'm not here to talk about the bad though, this place is all about the good! SO, what have I been up to in my free time?

Well, I finished Cowboy Bebop awhile ago. The ending almost made me cry. It was probably the best series I've watched. There isn't anything I can really complain about. It was just a great series, and it had a great ending. What's really interesting about the story is that it's just a brief moment in time. When the series ends there's this feeling that those characters lives go on. What makes it even more believable is that they didn't all stay together for a happily ever after. Spike went and did his own thing, Ed being the tumbleweed that she is, left. They hint that maybe Faye stays on the Bebop with Jet since she finally found where she belongs. I hope she did. The idea of Jet being all alone makes me sad. Jet with his apron, and bonsai plants. What was even more interesting was that the plot was almost in the background. It was going on, you got pieces of it as the series went on, but it was never once shoved in your face. That is the first series I have ever watched/read that ever managed to keep the plot as a BACK STORY. Bravo, Cowboy Bebop. Bravo. Any fan of anime needs to watch Cowboy Bebop, it will raise the bar on all anime you watch forever.

I read a manga series called "Ringo Nikki," for fun the other night. It's written by the same mangaka who wrote Lovely Complex. It was cute. You could see that the main characters Ringo, and Mic-Chan looked very much like Risa, and Otani from LoveCom. I like reading popular mangaka's early series. You can always see elements of their characters from previous series in the newer ones. I've recently hit a kick where I'm trying to read complete manga instead of adding more to the list of waiting to be updated ones. I have too many that I might never get the chance to finish.

I've been playing "Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time," with one of my friends. We get on the mic. and play at the same time. It's mega fun. I always end up laughing so hard I think my face might fall off. I just got to the point where I got Epona, after putting Link to sleep for 7 years. I love how Link is perfectly OK with the fact that he was asleep for the past 7 years, and is all grown up now. XD Gotta love the Hero of Time.

I got my other friend started on watching "Tales of the Abyss" the anime now. She has confessed that the costumes ARE amazing. Oh yes, I have backup on this fact now. XD I absolutely love Tales of game costumes. They're so crazy fun. We just watched episode 8 together the other day. WOOT! I think tomorrow we're going to watch the Cowboy bebop movie. I'm excited. I had to get it from Netflix since I couldn't find it anywhere on the interwebz.

It keeps raining, and I haven't had the chance to swim at all this past week. I might have jumped in once. So not cool. The weather was AWESOME today though. I hope it stays that way all the way to the weekend.

I'm currently reading "The Scarlet Letter" by Nathaniel Hawthorne. It's actually a good book, but I always get so fed up with the run on sentences in the classics. The foofy way of talking gets old too. JUST SAY WHAT YOU MEAN, PLEASE. Besides that I'm also still reading "Death by Latte," by Linda Gerber, and I put "City of Ashes" (Cassandra Claire) on hold for now. I might put "Death by Latte" on hold too. I really, really, want to read "Carpe Corpus," so we'll see what happens.

I should probably get to bed soon. I have work tomorrow. YES. That's right. I got a job. I'm working at the library. How cool is that? 8D

I'll try to get back into the habit of updating more often. It's just been really hectic lately.

I've been having trouble sleeping at night too. D=

See you Space Cowboy (till next time ;D)
