April

Every season holds something dear to me. For Spring, and April/May especially, it would be fresh greenery and fragrant lilac, things I associate strongly with second wave of adorations for Bleach. It's funny, but I was convinced I watched the series in Spring - how could I forget that I've spent hours and hours in the Autumn of 2006 devouring Bleach - anime and music and fanfics. It was second year of my studies, I also begun a course in Japanese. So diligent. Wrocław, the amazing city of evening lights, old buildings, all mine. A place to live - just by myself! Undisturbed, so free, going to the cinemas - alone, accompanied by Creeping Shadows and Burden of the Past. Damn, that was awesome. I might have erred in the choice of my lifepath, but I made some nice memories. There seemed to be a reason.

I think it can be perceived as a little bit sad, but most of my meaningful memories come from things I did alone. I watched the series alone. I read the books alone. Alone I have lived, loved, cried, sealed in the Music and created a kind of home that I return to later. It was so amazing to share those things with others.

Stuff discovered recently:

• Despite my initial doubts in all the flashy commercial side, Game of Thrones turned out to be bloody good. I read the book in August of 2006, but just the first one, and having it been so long time ago - had to make myself a recap on the political entanglements. Definitely going to follow the series.

• Saved By The Bell - recommended by somebody on the web as an inspiring 80-90s show. Thus, decided to give it a try (I love the atmosphere, music, clothes and everything about 80s and early 90s). First episode is really silly, but it gets better later. Much better! Also, I grew very fond of the characters. Something to recommend for an undemanding relaxation in the evening.

• Hirako Shinji's long hair and captain's haori. I cannot find the right words to define the feeling, but there is something very impressive in the combination of both. :3 Impressive and hot.

• Turn Back The Pendulum Arc. I think I had a dream about Ukitake something around a month ago, but unfortunately, couldn't find in Warsaw neither my notebook with fanfics notes, nor the anime itself! Settled down with just one document and thought quietly to myself to not to grieve over the lack of visual and mental material. And here, a month later I am going home and it just happens that I have access to Bleach everywhere possible, I watch overdue episodes, read plot summaries, research fanfiction, pictures, icons and are generally Bleach'd ^.^

I should have said that in the first place - for over a week now I am residing in home and are so much in peace after bloody Warsaw that do not notice the flow of time. All I am seem to be doing is watching stuff, reading stuff, researching new kanji, learning old kanji and grammar. All smooth and chilly. Aha, and twisting a finger in my foot and thus being immobilised. How stupid.
