A truly enjoyable show: funny, well written, beatiful art, interesting characters and a good plot. I've actually missed this from some of the anime's watched recently and it ranks amoung my favorite ever shows along with TTGL, Fruits Basket, One Piece and FMA. I heartily reccoment everyone and their mother to watch it!
Although my little fangirl heart almost esploded with the news of a live action version, i dont think i'll break it by going to see it. The debacle they've already caused has convinced me enough of that ¬_¬
Ninja
I'm sure you are referring to my better half as I wouldnt consider myself much of a ninja since I've no spacial awareness and i'm not exactly light on my feet! Before i start spewing buckets of sap i'll just say that before I met him, relationships weren't of great interest to me, although as many know did have my eye on this particular ninja for quite some time :P Since getting together my life has expanded and i get a stupid amount of happy just knowing he's there. There, you asked for it, sap sap sap xP
Drinking
Oh how i do love it! I actually can have a pretty awesome time on no alcohol at all but i find that having a drink with friends brings people together, not to mention breaking down walls and freeing inhibitions which sometimes prevent folk from opening up. I've had some pretty hideous experiences on the stuff however and I'm steering away from spirits almost entirely as i havn't the head for them. I tend to go from 0 to drunk very fekin quickly and from that point loose all restraint and down shots like no tomorrow, i'm glad i have done so for the most part with freinds who can steer me to the nearest toilet/bed without getting in there with me (the bed not the toilet!).
That is not to say that i'm abstaining completely, far from it. There's nothing in the world quite like sitting in a pub garden on a sunny day drinkng a pint of cider with friends :D
Happy
Why yes thank you, i am! As i said in the last post, i try to see the bright side of every situation, and hey, being happy is a darn site more interesting than being sad. Saying that i can muster the energy to be pretty angry once in a while and emo-ness comes to us all, generally this is in private though or in short bursts that die away pretty quickly - usually scaring the folk im with in the process ;)
I just find it very easy to be happy! There's no sense in wasting so much energy being sad.
Cooking
I LOVE to cook, particularly for friends and family. I like experimenting with new recipes or just flinging stuff together and hoping it works! Sometimes it doesnt (dont fry mayonaisse, it doesnt work) and sometimes it does (green and red marble cakes), sometimes things go wrong (1000chilli-con-carne of ame 08!) I can't wait to have a kitchen to bake and cook in again, and the time to do it. Healthy food is also a passion of mine, i love fruit and veg and salads, I dont believe in diets at all, a balanced intake is the only healthy way to eat.
And from the ever fabulous acestar
Naruto
I'm a proud one-time narutard. It was the first series i watched that broke 100 episodes, gave me my first ship (shikaxtema) and was the source of one of my first ever cosplays (temari). Ironically Naruto the character annoys the hell out of me. I still really like the series, bar the filler, but i can't get into sippunden at all. I'm going to try to watch it over the summer as it's progressed a little further now, i'll just have to try to ignore Sai - he pisses me off mightily.
Megatokyo
Despite the mutterings of some folk trying to tear it down I really do like this comic, just for the randomness and the characters. It's well drawn and the storylines (although rambling at points) are good. I still read it regularly (or as regularly as it's put up!) along with my 35 other weekly comics - yeah, i know :P. It's also a great way of seeing the progression of artist's skills through the years, as with many others such as LICD and Ctrl-alt-del, which is a fascinating process.
Archery
I sadly gave up the sport when i went to uni due to a complete lack of archery oppourtunities in the college. Before then i trained weekly and was gradually building up the insane amount of muscles required to pull a decent weight bow - though when i left i was still only pulling a 24 pound bow! I'm going to try to get back into it once i'm settled in glasgow as i've alays found it a peaceful sport that helps me to relax and calm my mind.
College
Has been an experience certainly. I'm leaving with mixed feelings as though i've made several very good friends on the course and i'm getting a degree out of it that will help me to move around in the field of animal science more than a nursing NVQ would, i've been horribly dissapointed by the teaching standard of the college, especially this year. I get the feeling that i'm not alone in this, several of you guys seem to be getting this problem with your courses. However, the main reason for me to do this course was to get the out of home uni experience and to live away from home, which has definitely been worthwhile, the degree wont be great but at least it's a show for 4 years hard graft! Oh and the £20,000 debt, musn't forget that XD
Cider
The best of all drinks! I hate the taste of beer and spirts and, as i said before, there is nothing better than a cold glass of cider on a warm summer's day ^_^ It does give me a shocking hangover however so i have to have at least 1:1 water during the course of an evening to prevent it! And of course it's made from apples, well, mostly apples :P
I love that the two main themes in all of this are booze and happiness of some kind, not a bad combination methinks!
Right, to bed. This is no kind of time to be awake with an exam in the morning!
Peace all~
