Ohai, I iz not dedz!

...Yeah, it's been ages since I posted, and I do realise this.

SO!  LIFE UPDATE!  (Including why I haven't updated in ages.)

Am now on antidepressants - Zoloft, to be precise.  Ever since last year I'd been miserable and down and ugh and I just thought it was school stress or something, but then classes ended and things that

HOLY SHIT! There you are! God, I missed you. I was actually about e-mail to see how you were.

Damn. So sorry. I never would have anticipated you to be depressed. I don't know. I've always hated shit that gives you a false high (drugs, alcohol, etc) and definitely not happy about you getting on the meds. I just don't like it that people need to be dependent on a external substance to be happy. But if it really helps you, I cannot say anything. I just hope you can get off them soon.

Good luck in classes this year. I just hope you're back for sure. I don't know if I can take another half a year without you! XD.

Please don't leave again!

[caitlin_chan]

I won't! At least, not without warning. :)

[caitlin_chan]

I'm sorry I worried you

[atom0001]

Yeah, I'm aware of the neurotransmitter theory. Psychiatrist often like to jump the gun and put people on meds. Like I said, I can't really complain if we're getting a Caitlin that feels better again. I'm really glad you're back.

Caught up on Naruto?

[caitlin_chan]

Yeah. If it felt like a forced happy, then I wouldn't be so excited, but I just feel like I'm me again. :D

I was caught up on the manga a little while ago, but now I'm a few chapters (five maybe?) behind again. Oops? ^^

[atom0001]

Can't argue with that.

And, I guess I can at least say that I'm really not liking the direction that Kishi's going in. I was so pissed off at the spoilers for last chapter.

Jeez, at the end of the Pain Vs. Jiraiya episode, I just bawled. They literally animated that chapter beautifully, emphasizing what the manga couldn't.

Shippuuden dubbed was just aired not too long ago.

[caitlin_chan]

I haven't read the last chapter yet, though I've been laughing my ass off at the Kage council. I am so amused by them.

Also, Gaara and Temari and Kankurou? YAY! I HAVE MISSED THE SANDSIBS SO MUCH! I haven't seen how Gaara's fight with Sasuke has been going past the first teeny section, but I'm hoping (probably futiley) that Gaara is kicking Sasuke's annoying emo-wanky butt.

I pretty much stopped watching the anime, actually, though I AM going to watch/DL the episodes of all the bits I found really intense and awesome in the manga (Pain/Jiraiya fight, Sasuke/Itachi fight, etc.).

[atom0001]

But they're badass though.

I was incredibly excited to see them. They're fucking awesome now.

The fight was short. I'll say that much.

Sasuke/Itachi fight hasn't happened. They decided they were going to knock out the Pain/Jiraiya fight before proceeding with the plot. But I swear the episode was much more intense than the manga.

[caitlin_chan]

Badass AND hilarious, a winning combination. :D

OMG I know. I literally started bouncing when I clicked and BAM! Sandsibs appeared! XDD

Knowing how gay Kishi is for Sasuke, Gaara probably lost. *SIGH*

I usually find (usually being the key word here) that big fight scenes are more intense animated as compared to still - probably because part of the very nature and intensity of a fight scene is the perception of the movement of the characters, and in the animations they're ACTUALLY moving.

Tsuchikage ftw!

It's been so long. I was going to kill to see Kankuro's new puppet!

Sasuke... I hate him.

Yep!

[caitlin_chan]

The Tsuchikage is hilarious.

Yay Kankurou! :D

Razzing frazzing Sasuke.
