So I quit a job and got another one within a week, luck must be on my side 'eh? I think Subway is a fairly nice place to work, low stress work and free food, what more could you want?

I also plan on having a "counter-protest" of my own tomorrow, by going to the mall! Well its not really a protest, more like taking advantage of the fact there'll be less people out. :p

Oh yeah I made some (if 24 can be considered "some") icons of "Howl's Moving Castle", I had the screencaps and I was bored, what can I say?

"Howl's Moving Castle" love is just a manifestation of my current interest in Miayasaki films. I mean, over here most "Protect the forest! Save Nature!" films here are all about peace and love. In Miyasaki's "Princess Monoke" the adressor gets her arm bit off so she can never raise a rifle again against the animals, The Forest Spirit goes on a killing rampage after getting its head cut off by some hunters, and at the end, the wolf-girl returns to the forest and turns her back on human civilization. The film definitely contains a greater sense of justice than any "conservation" film ever made here.

I can see why Disney is so hot to pout this stuff under their label, they know it outclasses almost all of their films in the last seven years or so.

Oh yeah another recommendation/exposition....

"Revolutionary Girl Utena" is suppose to be one of the major shoujo-ai series out there, and is another "mind-fuck" show. Anyway I read the first three chapters of the series and liked it well enough, but not exactly enough to rush out and buy it. Then I found some episodes of the anime on youtube.com...

Ep. 1

Ep.2

Ep.3 Prt.1

Ep. 5 Prt.1

Ep. 5 prt.2

Ep.6 prt.1

Ep.6 Prt.2

Ep. 7 prt.1

Ep.7Prt.2

...and I can already tell the series has alot of twists, and everyone is a crazy, selfish, bastard, except for two people anyway. So has anyone else read the series? Is it worth more hours of my life?
